Dimension Sword (ディメンションソード Dimenshon Sōdo) is a sword that is seen wielded by Janemba in Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn. The weapon is notable for its anti-dimensional properties.

Overview[]

DimensionSword2

The original form of the Dimension Sword

Originally a small club, Super Janemba uses his powers to reshape the object into the form of a sword similar in appearance to a Chinese jian. Due to Super Janemba's influence, it is capable of cutting through dimensions and creating dimensional portals by using slashing motions.

The range of the sword is vast. It has the ability to cut enemies from afar through purple blade-shaped blasts that can seemingly cleave through anything, easily dealing critical damage to Goku's left arm with only a glancing blow.

Usage[]

Janemba's Dimensional Slash

The Dimension Sword attack in Fusion Reborn

In Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn, Super Janemba uses the Dimension Sword to attack Super Saiyan 3 Goku soon after transforming into his second form, slicing deep wounds into Goku's arm. As Super Janemba is about to deliver a finishing blow, it is destroyed after Vegeta saves Goku with an energy blast that lands on him. Though surprised at first, the demon merely laughs about it maniacally before Super Saiyan 2 Vegeta attacks him head-on.

Enhancements[]

Dark Devil's Claw[]

By using the Dark Dragon Ball to achieve the Evil Demon form, Xeno Janemba's Rakshasa's Claw evolves into the Dark Devil's Claw, being larger and black in color, as well as changing shape. The sword gains indents on the side of the blade near the tip, creating an arrow shape, and the hilt becomes red and has four hilt-guard spikes, as well as two glowing orange areas on each side.

Fused with Demon God Dabura's sword[]

After Dark Demon God Buu absorbs Evil Demon Janemba: Xeno his Evil Demon enhanced sword fuses with Demon God Dabura's sword which Dark Demon God Buu inherited from Dabura after absorbing him, creating a new demonic sword that acts as a fusion of both blades.

Video Game Appearances[]

The sword appears in Dragon Ball Z: Buu's Fury, where Super Janemba manifests it to launch a wide range energy slash.

Rakshasa's Claw in Dragon Ball Heroes

Super Janemba's Dimension Sword is also present in the Budokai Tenkaichi series and Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2. Super Janemba's Ultimate Blast in those video games is the Dimension Sword Attack: he dashes at the enemy and proceeds to use the sword to slash them a few times, finishing the attack with a green mouth energy blast.

A unique attack with it called Rakshasa's Claw (羅刹爪 Rasetsusō) first appears as one of Super Janemba's Super Attacks in Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai, its sequel Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai - Another Road and Dragon Ball Z: Infinite World, where Super Janemba points his sword downward in front for an upward-lifting scoop-slash, an inward cut finishing with an outward slice.

A technique identical to Rakshasa's Claw is used by the Fu-Lum in Dragonball Evolution: The Game.

Rakshasa's Claw appears as the Super Attack of Janemba in Dragon Ball Heroes. A variant named Dark Rakshasa's Claw is used by Xeno Janemba, and a separate technique named Dark Devil's Claw is used by Evil Demon Xeno Janemba.

Rakshasa's Claw appears in Dragon Ball Z: Dokkan Battle as a Super Attack used by several of Super Janemba's cards.

In Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, it also appears under the name Rakshasa's Claw and appears as one of Janemba's Super Skills. It can be obtained by the Future Warrior as a reward in the Parallel Quest "Hell is a Picture?". In Xenoverse 2, depending on the input the user can fire up to five ki slash waves with the sword before closing in and finishing the attack with a downward two-handed sword slash. The sword also appears as an accessory, named Janemba's Sword, awarded to high-scoring participants of the "Defiler of This World and the Next" Raid event in Xenoverse 2. The accessory has a crimson blade unlike the sword wielded by the Future Warrior as part of Rakashasa's Claw (as the accessory's color scheme is not reversed).

In Dragon Ball FighterZ, Super Janemba has two Dimension Sword-based moves. The first is Demonic Blade, which is a forward slash. The second is Rakshasa's Claw (not unlike in the Budokai series), which is his signature sword technique where he slashes the opponent with the Dimension Sword before launching them with a downward slash. Additionally, the color of Janemba's Dimension Sword changes based upon Janemba's selected character color. Janemba's victory cutscene features him dashing towards the screen with his sword then slashes at the screen causing it to briefly go black as slash waves appear onscreen before the attack ends with Janemba pointing the sword at the screen.

In Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission, as well as appearing as the Super Attack of Janemba, King of Destruction Baby Janemba uses Rakshasa's Claw as his Super Attack in the level "Warriors Manipulated".
