सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The phrase reflects the Japanese value of 'jitsuryoku' (actual strength) over mere titles or words. It became particularly popular in sports and education contexts during Japan's post-war growth as a way to encourage meritocracy. It suggests that true talent will eventually show itself through action.
The 'Full Power' Combo
Add `十分に` (juubun ni - fully) or `存分に` (zonbun ni - to one's heart's content) before the phrase to sound like a pro.
Don't Overuse It
If you use this for small things like cooking instant ramen, people will think you are being sarcastic or very weird!

What It Means
Imagine you have been practicing the guitar in your bedroom for months. Nobody knows how good you are yet. Then, you step on stage and play a perfect solo. That moment is 実力を発揮する. It is about bringing your 'inner power' out into the light. It implies that you have talent that is usually hidden or just being prepared. It is a very positive and empowering expression.
How To Use It
You use this phrase as a verb. You can say you 'want to' do it using 実力を発揮したい. Or you can say you 'were able to' do it using 実力を発揮できた. It often follows a period of preparation. It sounds very determined and focused. You will often see it in sports news or business reviews. It is a great way to talk about performance.
When To Use It
Use this when the stakes are high. Think about a job interview where you need to impress. Think about a championship match in soccer. It is perfect for exams or big presentations at work. You can also use it to encourage someone else. Telling a friend 実力を発揮してね！ is like saying 'Show them what you've got!' It feels very supportive.
When NOT To Use It
Do not use this for easy, everyday tasks. You do not 'exhibit true power' by brushing your teeth or buying milk. That would sound way too dramatic! Unless you are in a competitive milk-buying contest, keep it for significant moments. Also, avoid using it if someone failed. It is specifically about the *act* of showing the skill, not the lack of it.
Cultural Background
Japan deeply values the process of 'honing' a skill, known as migaku. This phrase represents the climax of that long process. There is a cultural respect for people who stay humble and then perform when needed. It is not about bragging. It is about the result of your quiet discipline. You will hear this constantly in 'shonen' anime during big battle scenes.
Common Variations
A common variation is 本領を発揮する (honryou o hakki suru). This is slightly more formal and means showing your 'true characteristics.' Another one is 実力を出し切る (jitsuryoku o dashikiru). This means to use up every single drop of your ability. It sounds even more intense and exhausting!

In anime, characters often say they haven't shown their 'true power' yet. They usually use `本気` (honki), but `実力` is the more realistic version.
