ATTACKS
All of the Attacks used in DB/Z/GT series are listed and described here.
Big Bang Attack: Android #19's worst enemy.
Vegeta's Big Bang Attack is one of the first techniques he developed as a Super Saiyajin.
It's a very destuctive ability, witch a high powered ki blast exits out of Vegeta's right
or left palm.
Bukuujutsu: This is an ability pretty much
every character uses. The ability to "fly" in the air! Sure as hell beats
walking!
Genki Dama: One of the most famous attacks
in the Freezer Saga. Also known as "Spirit Bomb." Goku gathers lots of energy
from the life forms on the planet. It usually takes quite a while to store enough energy
to injure a victum. This can only be performed in normal saiyan mode.
Fusion: A joining or fuse between two
characters. A process that allows two people to become one, creating a very strong being.
It's not a permanent condition. It requires that the two be of near-equal power, and that
they both have a certain amount of prepping. Includes having to go through a
stupid-looking set of dance steps.
Kaiou Ken: Kaiou-sama (King Kai) had taught
Goku a series of techniques that can raise his power, but cuts his endurance by the same
factor. There are a series of Kaiou Ken levels, each respectively multiplying his power.
So Kaiken X 3, would be 3 times his normal strength.
Kamehameha: A power blast (perhaps the most
famous attacks in dbz). The hands are brought to one side of the body, where energy is
gathered. Then, the hands are thrusted forward, palms facing forward also, and the blast
is released. Originally, Kamesennin was the only one that could do this, after 50 years of
training. Gokuu picked it up just by watching (Goku also learned how to "remote
control" it). Later on, a number of other characters start using it. Can translate to
"Wave Attack of the Turtle School." (Further, Kamehameha is the name of a very
famous Hawaiian King.)
Kienzan (Destructo-Disk): Kuririn's
"slashing energy disc", developed to combat Nappa and Vegeta. Vegeta and Frieza
have been seen to use this attack also. The arm is extented up, with the palm facing up in
the air, and the disk is formed. When launched, it can practically cut through anything.
This allows weaker characters to have an advantage over stronger ones if they know how to
use it.
Makankousappou (Special-Beam Cannon):
Piccolo's screw blast. Actually two separate blasts, one being the straight-shooting beam,
and the other coils around that. Very powerful, but requires some time to build up the
energy first. "Screw attack of the Devil"
Masenko: This is Gohan's trademark energy
blast, and is fairly powerful. Gohan powers up a blast over his head with both his hands,
one palm behind the other, then brings his hands down in front of him to fire the blast.
Gohan used this blast fairly often during the second series, especially during the Freezer
saga.
Sansouken: A fake, where the attacker moves
so fast that an after-image is left behind. Gokuu has been able to leave three images of
himself.
Shunkan-idou: The teleport ability that
Gokuu learns on Yardrat. But, he can only jump to a place where someone he knows is
located (he has to feel that person's energy to teleport to that place.)
Sou Ki Dan: "Energy Bomb." Yamcha's remote-controlled energy ball. Later, Gokuu
learns to remote-control his Kamehame-ha bolts.
Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack: Gotenks (Goten
and Trunks fused together) spits out a ghost of himself. The ghosts explode on impact,
which can then do damage and drain your energy.
Super Saiyan 1: The frequently mentioned
Super Saiyan, is a change in which Saiyans and part-Saiyans sometimes under go. When there
is trouble, a Saiyan will transform, and his/her hair will turn gold and the eyes will
turn green. There is a enormous power increase. A requirement to become a Super Saiyan is
to have a pure heart. So one with a heart PURE of EVIL can achieve this state also.
Super Saiyan 2: The second state of Super
Saiyan. The hair turns gold and grows a little longer than in the regular Super-Saiyan
mode. In this state, power can be adjusted to the Saiyans liking. For example, he can
become very fast, but it may detract from his power. Kind of like a trade-off.
Super Saiyan 3: Gokuu's face becomes leaner,
his hair turns gold and grows down to his waist, he magically loses his eyebrows, and he
gets very strong. He also gets very tired after fighting in this mode for an extended
period of time, for the great power output drains the user fast.
Taiyoken: This is a blinding attack used by
Tenshinhan during the Tenkaichi-budoukai, and others later on. With the hands spread
across the face, the entire body can glow with a very intense light, blinding the
opponent. Translates to "Sun Technique."
Time Freeze: A technique known to be used
only by Guldo, one of the Ginyu Force. He can literally freeze time, and uses this time to
attack or surprise his opponent.
