About Dragon Ball attack names

Dragon Ball attack names are short, loud and built to be screamed mid-charge. Akira Toriyama's formula is usually one striking adjective or image plus a plain weapon word: Galick Gun, Final Flash, Big Bang Attack, Special Beam Cannon, Destructo Disc, Death Beam, Spirit Bomb. Energy moves end in Cannon, Beam, Ball, Wave, Flash, Blast or Bomb; physical moves end in Fist, Kick, Rush or Crush (Dragon Fist, Wolf Fang Fist, Flash Fist Crush). The Japanese originals are often kanji compounds (Kikoho, Makankosappo, Kienzan, Genki Dama, Taiyoken) that the dub translated into punchier English.

Each faction also has its own flavour. Saiyan moves sound prideful and explosive (Final Shine Attack, Gigantic Meteor, Riot Javelin). Frieza's clan owns Death and Nova (Death Ball, Supernova, Nova Strike). Namekians use demon and hell words (Hellzone Grenade, Explosive Demon Wave). Gods of Destruction simply Hakai. Goku Black and Zamasu go holy and judgmental (Holy Wrath, Divine Retribution, Sickle of Sorrow), and Majin Buu turns everything into food (Candy Beam, Flame Shower Breath). Cell and the androids lean technological; Gotenks names moves like a cartoon (Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack, Galactic Donut).

This list mixes canon techniques from the original series through Super and the films with new names that follow the same rules, including Japanese-style kanji compounds and vegetable puns in the Saiyan tradition.

How to choose Dragon Ball attack names

  • Match the suffix to the move type: Cannon, Beam and Flash for focused blasts, Ball or Bomb for spheres, Wave for wide-area energy, Fist, Kick or Rush for melee. Toriyama almost never names a beam a Ball.
  • Use the character's faction vocabulary. A Frieza-race OC should use Death or Nova words, a Namekian should reach for Demon and Hell, and a god-tier fighter can use Divine, Destruction or Hakai.
  • Escalate with a prefix rather than a new name: Kamehameha becomes Super, Instant, Father-Son or x10 Kamehameha. One signature move with upgrades feels more Dragon Ball than ten unrelated ones.
  • Keep it to two or three words. Almost every iconic Dragon Ball attack can be shouted in under a second; save long names for joke moves like the Satan Miracle Special Ultra Super Megaton Punch.
  • If you want the Japanese feel, build a kanji-style compound from real roots (ki, ho, ken, ha, dan): Kikoho, Ryuken, Rogafufuken, Bakuhatsuha. Then give it a dub-style English name too.

Frequently asked questions

How are Dragon Ball attack names structured?

Most are one vivid word plus a weapon word: Galick Gun, Final Flash, Death Ball, Special Beam Cannon, Big Bang Attack, Spirit Bomb. Energy techniques end in Cannon, Beam, Ball, Wave, Flash, Blast or Bomb, and physical ones end in Fist, Kick, Rush or Crush. The Japanese names are often kanji compounds like Kikoho or Makankosappo.

What is the most famous Dragon Ball attack?

The Kamehameha, named after the Hawaiian king Kamehameha I; Toriyama's wife reportedly suggested it because it sounded funny. Other instantly recognisable moves are the Spirit Bomb (Genki Dama), Galick Gun, Final Flash, Special Beam Cannon, Destructo Disc, Solar Flare, Instant Transmission and Frieza's Death Beam.

What do Dragon Ball attack names mean in Japanese?

Kamehameha is written with kanji for turtle (kame), destruction (ha) and wave (ha), Kikoho means spirit-energy cannon (Tri-Beam), Makankosappo is demon-piercing light-killing gun (Special Beam Cannon), Kienzan is energy circle slash (Destructo Disc), Genki Dama is energy ball (Spirit Bomb) and Taiyoken is sun fist (Solar Flare).

Can I use these attack names for a Dragon Ball OC or fan game?

Yes. Canon names belong to Shueisha and Toei, so treat them as references for fan works; the original names in this list are free to use for OCs, Xenoverse-style characters, fan fiction, roleplay and tabletop games. Pair a Saiyan OC with a prideful cannon or fist, a Frieza-race OC with a Death or Nova move, and a Namekian with a demon or hell technique.
