I'm trying to think if there's ever been an anime powerup with related hair color change where dark hair is stronger than light hair

In other news, I just went through the entire Power Dyes Your Hair trope on tvtropes and this might legitimately be the only anime/manga example of a power-up darkening a person's hair

a LOT of hairs turning white, less but numerable hairs turning blond, several hairs turning pink, then some hair turning to a brighter shade of whatever it already was. One or two where it was something weird like red turning blue or blond turning bright green that didn't specify if it was a darker shade or not.

in bleach isn't there a fight against a guy who's power is "becomes god" and the solution is to pull out the unrevealed shikai that has the power to kill god?

where the bad guy's power is "can create anything he can imagine"
You're Quinner
@quinn2win

and he loses because kenpachi keeps being kenpachi so hard that he can't imagine anything that can beat kenpachi

the other question is, is there anyone that does "hair color change when power up" that isnt just imitating dbz?

Tue, Jul 11, 2023 7:53 PM
past that i can think of a few instances where hair color changes were indirectly related to the power instead of directly (hair going white from necromancy/eldritch knowledge/etc), or where it's indicative of plural alters taking front and not technically powerup
