Continuous Kamehameha (連続かめはめ波 Renzoku Kamehameha[1], lit. "Continuous Turtle Destruction Wave" or "Continuous Turtle Devastation Wave") is a rapid-fire version of the Kamehameha used by Goku.
Overview[]
Goku fires multiple one-handed Kamehamehas from both hands, inflicting a great deal of damage. Only those who have undergone intense training can unleash this technique.[1]
Usage[]
On his way to Namek, Goku uses several Kamehamehas fired one after another during his training; the goal being to try and block each.[2][3] He later uses the technique against Frieza during their battle on Namek.
He also uses the technique as a Super Saiyan against Cell during the Cell Games,[4] as a Super Saiyan 3 against Super Buu (w/ Gotenks absorbed),[5] and as a Super Saiyan 3 as well against Kid Buu.
Adult Gohan uses the technique as a Super Saiyan 2 to blast the Sealed Ball where Majin Buu is locked in an attempt to destroy him before his release, firing several Electric Kamehamehas.[6]
Much later, Goku uses the energy wave barrage against the Sigma Force, which remains hidden into the metallic structure of Dr. Myuu's tower.[7] Soon after, he uses the technique two times in his fight against General Rilldo on the planet M-2.[8] Goten uses a continuous attack during his short fight against Baby, right before attacking it with his Super Goten Strike.[9] Goku later uses a variant named Final Assault to finish off Super 17.[10]
