Begone!

Directory: Techniques → Offensive Techniques → Energy waves

Begone! (くたばれ!) is an energy wave attack used by Raditz. It is one of Raditz's most powerful attacks.

Overview

Raditz prepares the attack in the manga

Raditz raises his hand up in the air, and creates a small blue and white energy sphere. Then, he fires it at his opponent in the form of a large energy wave, inflicting a great amount of damage.

Raditz attempts to use this attack against Piccolo when they first meet, but stops when his scouter finds Goku's power level. Raditz later is about to use the attack again against Piccolo, but is interrupted by Goku grabbing his tail.

Appearances in games

The technique is called Full Power Energy Wave in Dragon Ball Z: Kyōshū! Saiyan, Legend of the Super Saiyan, and Budokai Tenkaichi 1 (where it is one of his Blast 2 attacks). It was named Begone! in Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3, where it appears as Raditz's Ultimate Blast. The technique appears under the same name in the Raging Blast games and Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi. Raditz is usually heard saying "i'll kill you quickly!" In most of the games he uses the move in whilst preparing the attack.

Variations

Double Sunday – The double energy wave version that Raditz uses against Goku and Piccolo. With this technique, Raditz manages to destroy Piccolo's left arm and it also makes two great explosions when it reaches the ground.

Trivia

In the Ocean dub, when Raditz is about to use it on Piccolo (the first time they meet), he tells him "Keep Your Eye on the Birdie." However, in the FUNimation dub, Raditz calls the technique "Double Sunday"; which is the name given to the two-handed version of this attack in video games.
