Line 187:
* The [[Big Bad]] of ''[[Lunar Eternal Blue|Lunar 2]]'', Zophar, takes a giant [[Eldritch Abomination]] form when you first seen him. When you fight him for the first time, he looks decidedly...prettier, even when he goes [[One Winged Angel]] on you. Both forms are also nowhere near the size of his original form, which he actually turns into the game' final dungeon.
* In ''[[Chrono Trigger (Video Game)|Chrono Trigger]]'', [[Big Bad|Lavos]] actually ''subverts'' the Bishonen Line. His colossal bug-like exterior is actually a protective shell guarding his true humanoid form, which, probably thanks to [[Akira Toriyama]], happens to look a lot like Perfect Cell (see the trope picture above). However, upon defeating this form, the Lavos ''Core'' reveals itself to be a shambling monstrosity, the end result of Lavos' attempts to achieve biological singularity. {{spoiler|And, in actuality, the core is a tiny pod floating beside said monstrosity.}}
* ''[[AsurasAsura's Wrath]]'' has {{spoiler|Mantra Asura, a form stronger than his previous six armed f.orm and berserker forms, but instead of becoming more monstrous, he instead Grows 1000 arms that merge in to bigger gauntlets}} It's also played around with in the same game, as that {{spoiler|Vlitra's Core, while a humanoid boss, exists at the same time as the [[One Winged Angel]] [[Orochi]] form of Vlitra on the Worlds Surface}}.
* Reversed in ''[[Half Minute Hero]]'''s Evil Lord 30, in which the Evil Lord increases his magic power by "getting sexier", for which he must go to a beauty spa.
