(Commenting out the image of the power booster schematic due to how it's distracting from the other image on the page. There is also how it doesn't show the trope as well as the other image for the page.) |
(Adding examples from Bleach, Asura's Wrath, and Slugterra while deleting the picture of the schematics for a power booster because it doesn't show the trope.) |

A '''Power Booster''' is a superpower that increases characters' abilities and even other's superpowers. Individuals who possess this power can increase their and others' physical abilities beyond their innate limits. When it comes to superpowers, it gives a stronger output. These effects are usually temporary, especially if range is involved. Boosting superpowers too much may also entail other [[Necessary Drawback]] like making others' powers uncontrollable, inducing [[Power Incontinence]]. |

* In ''[[Fairy Tail]]'', Kyoka uses the [[Curse]] called Enhancement to enhance a target's attributes as she sees fit. She uses it on herself to increase her physical strength. She also uses Enhancement to boost people's senses, such as pain, to make torturing them more efficient. |

* Belo Betty in ''[[One Piece]]''. Her ''Kobu Kobu no Mi'' Devil Fruit power enhances her already considerable skills as an orator, inspiring bravery, resolve, and fighting spirit in anyone listening to her. A ''very'' useful power to have as a member of Dragon's Revolutionary Army, she was able to turn the frightened and destitute citizenry of Lulusia Kingdom into an army that proved able to hold off the Peachbeard Pirates with only makeshift weapons. Many fans have theorized that if television existed on the ''One Piece'' world and Betty were able to make even a five-minute broadcast, the World Government would have been overthrown in a manner of hours. |
