[Anime] Why do anime characters yell their attacks?

Lots of anime characters shout the name of their attack before hitting their opponent. What is the point of this? Is your punch more effective if you yell "Super Destruction Punch!" before landing the blow? Are they just doing it to sound cool?

It's because of the same reason they keep having long internal monologues in the middle of intense battles. Anime characters have massively shit attention spans, and have to constantly remind themselves of what they're doing. This, combined with the rush of adrenaline, is what causes them to shout out the names of their attacks.
