| Here's the list on the most memorable moves of Dragon Ball Z. -=Daborra=- - Sekikatsuba: Created and perfected by Daborra, this attack uses his saliva to transfom anything it touches to stone. -=Gohan=- - Power Beam (Masenko): Gohan focuses his energy into his hands and places his palms above his head with one behind the other. The energy is unleashed in the form of a ball thrown like a rock from over his head. -=Goku=- - Kaio-Ken: A technique learned from King Kaio that instantly increases Goku's energy and can double, triple, and even quadruple his strength and agility. - Spirit Bomb (Genki Dama): This is another technique that Goku acquired from King Kai. A Spirit Bomb is a massive, concentrated ball of energy comprised of the spirits of all living things surrounding Goku. - Kamehameha: Goku's version of this technique is exactly the same as Roshi's Kamehameha. Obviously, Goku is much more powerful so he can make his wave larger and hold it for a longer duration. Like Roshi, Goku simply cups his hands to his side and concentrates his energy very quickly into a solid wave. Goku can devastate anything with this versatile technique. -=Guldo=- - Time Freeze: Guldo is the smallest and least powerful of the entire Ginyu Force. What makes him dangerous, though, is this attack. Guldo can freeze everything around him for as long as he can hold his breath. This gives an opponent the impression that he can move very fast or his immensely more powerful than he actually is. -=Krillin=- - Destruct'O Disc (Kienzan): Krillin created this technique himself and it is one of my favorites. He raises one hand and forms his energy into a razor-sharp, "saw-like" disc. Its edge is so incredibly sharp that it can cut through almost anything. It slices off a chunk of the mighty Frieza even though, at that point, Frieza's power was much larger than Krillin's. With this technique, Krillin stands a good chance against any opposition, despite their power level. -=Mr. Satan=- - Ultra Super Megaton Punch: Don't be fooled by its overly indulgent name. This is just a simple punch used by Mr. Satan. I think it is special because he screams like a psycho when performing it. -=Piccolo=- - Eye Lasers: Piccolo fires two beams of ki very rapidly from his eyes. These lasers have pin-point accuracy and are very useful when trapped by an opponent (it can be used to blind the other fighter). - Special Beam Cannon (Makanko-Sappo): Piccolo places two fingers on his forehead and concentrates all of his energy to that single point. Once fired, the pulse of energy spirals toward its destination with incredible speed and more often than not, decimates anything in its path. - Split Form: Similar to Tien's "Multi-Form", Piccolo splits his body in to two separate forms. The difference is, Piccolo takes two forms and Tien takes many. The intriguingly odd aspect of this technique is that both bodies think seperately and they actually communicate with each other! Almost as if one body uses the right side of Piccolo's brain and the other body uses the left side. This creates more fighters to fend off for an opponent, but there is a fault in this technique: by splitting his body in two, Piccolo also splits up his energy. -=Roshi=- - Kamehameha: This is probably the most famous of all the techniques in the series. It is simply a concentrated ball of energy (collected very rapidly) that takes the form of a bright wave. The most impressive aspect of this powerful technique is the fact that it can be held indefinitely. This can make for long "beam energy" struggles between two fighters with similiar techniques. i.e. Gohan and Cell's long and desperate power struggle in the Cell Games saga. -=Tien=- - Multi-Form: This is a difficult technique that only few people have mastered. After concentrating his energy by crossing his arms and forming a pyramid shape with his hands, Tien slowly begins to seperate his energy in to multiple personalities. This is no illusion. He literally splits up his body to create several more Tiens'. This allows him to surround any opponent with multiple attacks (like beam energy attacks), but the technique also evenly divides his energy into each body. If he is not focused, his opponent can easily defeat each Tien individually and then attack him. - Solar Flare (Taiyoken): This is an interesting technique, developed by Tien but, used by other Z warriors. He holds his hands (fingers outstretched) in front of his face while yelling "Solar Flare" and a bright beam of light envelopes everything in a certain range. This technique is so bright that it easily blinds an opponent. -=Vegeta=- - Big Bang Attack: This is a slow-moving yet massive ki bolt launched from the palm. Vegeta extends his arm and points his hand out perpendicular to the wrist. - Final Flash: This is Vegeta's single most powerful attack. He forms it in much the same way as the Kamehameha, but the overall effect is much more devastating. It is also very slow-moving, but if it connects with a target, annihilation is inevitable. -=Yamcha=- - Spirit Bomb: To be honest, I'm not sure if this is the same technique that Goku has mastered or not. The only similarity is that both fighters concentrate energy into one hand, illuminating the entire arm with pure power. Yamcha, however, does not gather the energy from living creatures like Goku. Yamcha's technique uses his own power and can really be a drain on his body. Another significant difference is the fact that Yamcha's Spirit Bomb is not nearly as powerful as Goku's. It is easily his best attack, but unless hit with it dead-on without any defenses, almost no one can be completely vaporized by it. |
