You're supposed to make your protagonists work hard to get stronger. Too many anime just pull extreme powerups out of the main characters' asses, and it gets boring and ridiculous. Since they're so ultra powerful all of a sudden, the story has to throw even stronger foes at them, and then it turns into them having every battle be as destructive as a nuclear bomb or some ridiculous crap like that, and it can easily lose its entertainment value.
