1 | '''Basic Trope''': Inflating the monster to an enormous size. |
2 | * '''Straight''': Darksaur turns Dragonsaur giant-sized with a magic staff. |
3 | * '''Exaggerated''': |
4 | ** Darksaur makes an ''army'' of Dragonsauri giant-sized. |
5 | ** Darksaur turns Dragonsaur planet-sized with a magic staff. |
6 | * '''Downplayed''': |
7 | ** Darksaur turns a miniature Dragonsaur normal-sized. |
8 | ** Darksaur turns Dragonsaur bigger, but slightly bigger than most normal-sized. |
9 | * '''Justified''': |
10 | ** Darksaur wants to inspire terror and awe in his enemies and enjoys the spectacle of defeating his enemies with giant monsters. |
11 | ** Dragonsaur was on its last legs. Making it bigger was a last ditch effort to beat the heroes. |
12 | * '''Inverted''': |
13 | ** Who needs monsters? By using the staff, Darksaur turns HIMSELF gigantic. |
14 | ** Darksaur shrinks the protagonists, thus making him and Dragonsaur giants from their perspective, anyway. |
15 | ** Or the monster ''shrinks'' instead, becoming more dense and thus stronger. |
16 | ** Or Darksaur turns ''the protagonists'' into giants, making them bigger targets for Dragonsaur. |
17 | * '''Subverted''': The staff does not make the monster bigger. But it makes for a useful distraction or attack to help the monster win anyway. |
18 | * '''Double Subverted''': Darksaur meant to attack the heroes, but accidentally made the monster gigantic. He takes credit anyway. |
19 | * '''Parodied''': |
20 | ** The monster becomes huge and winded up bumping on the edge of the universe. |
21 | ** Darksaur misses his monster and accidentally turns an innocent bystander giant instead. |
22 | * '''Zig Zagged''': The monster becomes gigantic! ...but is unable to move because the skeletal structure is unable to support the vastly increased body mass... Allowing Darksaur to use a necromancy spell to reanimate a ''Zombie'' Dragonsaur, ''and'' make it even bigger! |
23 | * '''Averted''': The monster remains its normal size. |
24 | * '''Enforced''': "People love giant monsters. Make sure to put some giant monster scenes in!" |
25 | * '''Lampshaded''': "Well it could have been worse: Could have been bigge- OH GODDAMNIT!" |
26 | * '''Invoked''': "With this enlarged Dragonsaur, this pathetic country will be mine to keep!" |
27 | * '''Exploited''': |
28 | ** "Hmph. I knew this would happen. Time to bring out our HumongousMecha! (Man! IAlwaysWantedToSayThat!)" |
29 | ** Darksaur launches the normal-sized [[FastballSpecial Dragonsaur out of a cannon]], and then enlarges it as it flies, creating a devastating impact. |
30 | * '''Defied''': The heroes know about the bad guy's magical monster-enlarging spells, and the first thing they do in the battle is wrap magical chains around the monster to prevent it from growing. |
31 | * '''Discussed''': "Bet that monster is going to turn giant." "I don't take a sucker bet." |
32 | * '''Conversed''': "{{Sentai}} shows ''always have'' monster-enlarging scenes, and we fans don't mind that." |
33 | * '''Deconstructed''': |
34 | ** The giant monster causes mass destruction in the city. Darksaur is jailed, and forced to pay out of his own pocket to repair all the buildings that were destroyed. |
35 | ** Having more mass greatly increases the amount of energy Dragonsaur needs just to stand up. |
36 | * '''Reconstructed''': ...but he escapes from jail by making a new giant monster, and takes over the city! |
