9* Bowser takes on a fearsome new form known as [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Fury Bowser]], which ''dwarfs'' all his previous giant transformations[[note]]except Giant Bowser in ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiDreamTeam'', but of course that took place within Bowser's dream[[/note]] and is easily his most menacing form yet. What's more, Mario [[EnemyMine teams up with]] ''[[EnemyMine Bowser Jr.]]'' of all people to stop him. Oh, and to actually ''fight'' the Koopa King, Mario transforms into Giga Cat Mario, a kaiju-sized version of his normal cat form. With [[Anime/DragonBallZ Super Saiyan]] hair. Badass.
10* Take note that it's not just hair, it's a ''golden mane''. The power-up isn't just a giant cat, it's a ''giant golden lion''.
11* Fury Bowser has not one, not two, but three different themes for each of his phases. Befitting such an epic transformation, they all sound as if Bowser had walked out of a metal concert. And that's just for normal gameplay. There are two more equally epic tracks for when Mario uses the Giga Bell that would make [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Sephiroth]] proud. All can be heard [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LG_bIiuhDc here]].
12* The fact that you use Plessie, a Yoshi-like Plesiosaurus, in the final phase of the battle is pretty awesome, and just like Fury Bowser and Giga Cat Mario, Plessie also gets a Giga Bell and becomes a Giga Cat-like Kaiju Beast.
13* On the subject of Bowser Jr, he's ''finally using the [[VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine Magic Paintbrush]] again (''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' notwithstanding, of course)!''
14** And then the ending reveals that the game itself is one long one for the paintbrush. After ''Sunshine'', Junior never used the brush to anywhere the same potential, mostly using the paint as a projectile or in a manner akin to tar. But in ''Bowser's Fury''? Not only can he paint items into existence with his graffiti, but it turns out that Fury Bowser's transformation and the goop scattered across the isles was born from the black paint he used to paint his father as a joke. For the first time since its debut, we're reminded of the damage that the Magic Paintbrush has the potential to cause.
15** During the ending cutscene, the kid is able to [[MusclesAreMeaningless physically hold back his enormous father from attacking Mario]], [[PintSizedPowerhouse dragging him offscreen]].
