"Can't you see I'm suffering from a chronic stomachache! Oh! I must consult my personal physician."
Mr. Satan using Miracle Kneel to excuse himself from the Intergalactic World Tournament in Dragon Ball Z: Bojack Unbound

Miracle Kneel is a technique used by Mr. Satan.

Overview[]

Mr. Satan backs out of having to fight opponents stronger than him by crouching down clutching his stomach pretending to suffer from stomach pains while maintaining his reputation as Martial Arts Champion.

Usage[]

It was originally used by Mr. Satan as an excuse to Jimmy Firecracker and his studentsfor why he couldn't join the fight, though in the anime his assistant Miss Piiza foils it slightly when she reveals she keeps stomach ache medication in her cleavage.[3]

Film Appearances[]

This technique made its film debut in Dragon Ball Z: Bojack Unbound where it is used by Mr. Satan in an attempt to get out of the Intergalactic World Tournament upon realizing Gohan and the other Dragon Team members were participating and even refused medical attention to avoid his ruse being exposed by insisting he consult his personal physician. When the Galaxy Soldiers are revealed to have replaced Mr. Satan's students hired by the tournament manager to portray the Intergalactic Fighters, Mr. Satan uses the excuse to hideout in the restroom, though eventually he relents in order to save face and acts like he's recovered from his stomach ache, though he changes his mind at the last second, though the manager activates the rail car to send him onto the battlefield which actually ends up saving Gohan as he interrupts the Galaxy Soldiers Psycho Thread and knocks out the camera feed allowing him to take credit for Gohan's defeat of the Galactic Soldiers.

Mr. Satan also uses it in Dragon Ball Z: Bio-Broly.

It was named in Dragon Ball Xenoverse and is Mr. Satan's evasive skill where the user crouches down to avoid an attack. It is also Videl's evasive skill in her 6th skillset and as Krillin's Evasive Skill in his 1st skillset. It can be obtained by the Future Warrior in Parallel Quest 17: "Challenger Hercule". It also appears as one of the Future Warrior's Emote Actions under Emotes Option 30: Stomach Ache.

Mr. Satan's equipable "Master" Z-Soul, "Eek! Waaaah! What'll I do?!" is activated by the skill when it is used in battle, which nulls all attack power (the users Basic ATK, Strike Supers, and Ki Blast Super stats) while granting temporary invincibility.

In Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, Miracle Kneel returns as an Evasive Skill used by Mr. Satan. It is also used by Guldo in his Battle Suit 1 skillset. It can be obtained by the Future Warrior by purchasing it from the Skill Shop for 5,500 Zeni after completing the Battle of Gods portion of the main story.

Trivia[]

  • It is one of Mr. Satan's often used excuses for not having to fight those stronger than him which was born a personal vow Mr. Satan had made to himself not to fight any one who seemed crazy strong, after he was injured in an encounter with Mercenary Tao which resulted in the death of the Master of Satan Castle, Mr. Satan's martial arts mentor. It is also a way for Mr. Satan to back out of a fight while at the same time saving face with the public (save for those who know better such as the Z-Fighters) and maintain his reputation with the public's false belief that he is unable to fight at full strength due to suffering stomach pains. As Mr. Satan has used it several time he has lead the public to believe he suffers from a chronic stomach condition. It is just another example of Mr. Satan's ability to deceive his public.
