"See you in Hell, Recoome!" |
Final Crash (ファイナルクラッシュ) is an energy wave used by Vegeta. First, Vegeta draws his hands to his sides and charges two whitish-blue energy spheres with streaks of electricity. Then, he brings his hands together with fingers spread apart and fires a massive energy wave at the opponent, inflicting a large amount of damage.
Vegeta firing the Final Crash
Vegeta uses this attack during his battle against Recoome on Planet Namek. As the battle begins, Vegeta powers up and furiously attacks the surprised Recoome, throwing him far away into a mountain. Vegeta then charges and fires the Final Crash against Recoome, creating a huge explosion. It appears that Vegeta kills Recoome, but as the smoke clears, Recoome emerges from the blast unharmed, only receiving a few cuts (though his Battle Armor is destroyed), much to the shock of Vegeta, Gohan, and Krillin.
Final Crash is named in Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors, where it appears as one of Vegeta's special attacks in his base form. It is named Powerful Energy Wave (強力エネルギー波) in Dragon Ball Z: Super Saiya Densetsu, and Giga Blaster (ギガブラスター) in Dragon Ball Z Gaiden: Saiyajin Zetsumetsu Keikaku.
In the Androids Saga, Vegeta uses a far more powerful yellow colored energy beam very similar to the Final Crash, called Final Flash, on both Perfect Cell and a Cell Jr.
Trivia
- Vegeta's Final Crash could be viewed a precursor to his Final Flash, as both attacks are performed in a similar fashion. Though, the Final Crash was performed on the ground while the Final Flash was performed in the air, and Vegeta did not shout out the name of the attack he used on Recoome (its name comes from video games), as he did when he performed his Final Flash on Cell.
