"Frieza and Goku are actually fighting SIDE BY SIDE!"
Krillin astounded at the two's teamwork in "A Miraculous Conclusion! Farewell Goku! Until We Meet Again!"

Limitbreaking Assault (限界突破の突撃 Genkai Toppa Totsugeki)[1] is a Team Attack used by various tag-teams of Team Universe 7.

Overview[]

The Limitbreaking Assault typically consists of a synced-up combination of blows, leading into a Heavy Finish or blast attack. Depending on the duo, it is performed differently:

  • A furious Golden Frieza rushes at the opponent to deliver a massive punch, crashing through rocks while 17 dashes around them, blasting at the opponent from all angles. After Frieza kicks the opponent through the ground, 17 grabs them from behind and slams a short-ranged yet powerful ki blast into their back, generating a massive explosion and injuring both 17 and the opponent.
  • Goku and Frieza let out a furious roar and charge at their opponent, delivering a barrage of blows in sync, then launching the opponent into the air and delivering a joint heavy kick from both sides.
  • Goku and Vegeta unleash a salvo of synced-up attacks, ending with a hard back-to-back punch to the opponent's face.

Usage and Power[]

In the anime version of the Tournament of Power, portions of the first Limitbreaking Assault were seen during the team's stand against Jiren. Frieza, enraged at his humiliation by Jiren's teammates and no longer willing to abide by the no-killing rule, surprise-attacked him with the downward kick and attempted to deal him a deadly blow with the rushing punch, though he was easily battered aside. During his battle with God of Destruction Top, 17 used the all-around ki barrage in attempt to break through his Energy of Destruction, and later used the short-ranged blast to damage Jiren's back.

The second Limitbreaking Assault was used during the climax of the tournament. With blast support from 17, Goku and Frieza used the rush attack to get the edge over Jiren. The seething Pride Trooper counterattacks with rapid-fire punches to knock them away before rocketing toward 17, but Goku and Frieza pursue him with the Miracle of Universe 7.

The manga version of the tournament's events saw Goku and Vegeta using the third Limitbreaking Assault against Jiren, their training with Whis showing its benefits when the duo pressured him with perfectly synced attacks. With a combined Kamehameha/Gamma Burst Flash, they were able to significantly enrage the Pride Trooper, forcing Jiren to break through the combined blast to send Vegeta reeling off the stage.

Video Game Appearances[]

Limitbreaking Assault was named in Dokkan Battle, the second version used by Goku & Frieza (Final Form) (Angel) as their Super Attack, ending with a joint Kamehameha/Death Ball. The first version later appeared as the Super Attack of Golden Frieza (Angel) & Android #17.
