Makosen (魔光閃) is an energy wave used by King Piccolo, as well as his reincarnation and son Piccolo.
Overview
King Piccolo's Makosen
When first used in the series by its inventor, King Piccolo originally fires two energy waves one after another; the first to distract the opponent and the second to actually hit them head on. This is changed in later uses of the technique. King Piccolo uses this attack to knock Goku out at the end of their first confrontation. This use also stops Goku's heart temporarily, which leeds to King Piccolo to believe that Goku had been killed from the blast. King Piccolo later uses the attack to kill Chiaotzu, and once again against Goku during their final confrontation.
Only in the anime, Piccolo uses the technique during his battle on the Tropical Islands, shouting "Makosen Ha" when he fires it against Android 17. In this instance, Piccolo uses the technique in the form of an energy wave fired similar to the Kamehameha in order to finish off his Scatter Shot attack, but Android 17 evades the scatter shots with ease and then deflects the Makousenha, causing it to explode and rain down tiny orbs of energy.[2]
Piccolo later uses the attack in a Beam Struggle against one of his clones while training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.[3]
