- Burning Justice is a nebulously-defined power-up in multiple Transformers series
- "The secondary heroes stand around and watch, calling on their burning spirit and hearts of justice to empower the main hero from afar."
- ―TransTech Shockwave[[Bee in the City| [src]]]
Burning Justice is a mysterious power conveyed on some Transformers by positive psychic reinforcement--that is, by belief, either from the subject's own self-confidence and righteous indignation, or the championing power of an adoring crowd cheering them on, or some other ambient psychic effect. The actual mechanism by which the beliefs are transmitted and converted into energy are unclear, and often inconsistent between circumstances. Far from a simple emotional state, when a Transformer is endowed with "burning justice" they often show undeniable physical alterations, i.e. color changes, physical growth of new weapon attachments, or abilities they possess at no other time--which in turn can include powers that are all but miraculous, such as repairing greivous bodily injury, raising the dead, or temporarily suspending the laws of thermodynamics.

While moments of Burning Justice were abundant in Galaxy Force, perhaps to a greater magnitude than any other piece of Transformers fiction, the English-language Cybertron dub would, on a regular basis, desperately attempt to make these instances make sense, though the insertion of dialogue that explained where the power boost was coming from, or just altering dialogue so that the characters would be amazed and/or mystified by what was happening to them, as opposed to the Japanese versions' nonplussed reactions that presented it as the most normal thing in the world.
Trivia
This phenomenon has never been shown to effect female Transformers.
