Heavy Finish (ヘビーフィニッシュ) is an attack introduced in the Dragon Ball series.

Overview

Krillin performs a Heavy Finish

The user attacks with a powerful punch, kick, or knee that hits the opponent in the stomach. This will leave the opponent damaged and briefly stunned, allowing the user to launch further assaults against the stunned opponent. The attack can also be launched in the back of the opponent, inflicting even more damage, and will then also stun the opponent for a longer period of time.

Goku (Mid) uses the Heavy Finish against Recoome in Budokai Tenkaichi 3

It is first used by Garlic Jr. during his battle against Kami in the movie Dragon Ball Z: Dead Zone. Most fighters in the universe use this technique, and its force and style varies on the user. Raditz uses the technique in the form of a powerful knee strike, which sent Goku plummeting to the ground when he used it before kidnapping Gohan. Big and brutish characters like the Great Apes are known for delivering massive heavy finishes, which takes the opponent long time to recover from. Android 17 uses the technique as part of his Now We're Playing for Keeps! technique.

Heavy Finish is named in the Budokai Tenkaichi video game series.

Heavy Crush

Some users of Heavy Finish are able to perform a so called Heavy Crush. It consists of following up with the buttons triggered for the Heavy Finish two times, then ending it with the SQUARE button. This will result in a combo that ends with the opponent being flung far away while he/she is flipping around in the air.
