Grade III Super Saiyan is also a flawed technique, same for the Kaio-ken. These are cool nonetheless and maybe their flaws can be overcome.Doctor. wrote:Zeru14 wrote:-Great Namek

The multi-form would be especially useful if Ten was to fight someone who has amazing striking power but takes a lot of time to charge his attacks and can only hit one person per attack.
I for one, would like to see ALL the techniques that were showcased in the Goku vs. Jackie Chun fight which is one of the best fights in the series IMO.
There's so much potential for amazing fights for this arc that I am trying REALLY hard to keep my expectations low, because otherwise, it's gonna be the most dissapointing arc ever.

Techniques can be improved. They can be useful against certain people anyway. Piccolo already used the multi form technique against Frost in the tournament.Doctor. wrote:Zeru14 wrote:-Great Namek

The multi-form clones are actually real, they don't just vanish in a puff when struck.namekiansaiyan wrote:It definitely looks like the multi form technique to me.Doctor. wrote:He used the afterimage.namekiansaiyan wrote:

But he made 100+ of them so they will be quite weak and they were not made to last just to hide the real Piccolo.Simere wrote:The multi-form clones are actually real, they don't just vanish in a puff when struck.namekiansaiyan wrote:It definitely looks like the multi form technique to me.Doctor. wrote: He used the afterimage.
Re: What techniques do you think should return?
Piccolo can't use that technique, only in filler. It's Tenshinhan-exclusive in the manga. So it's the afterimage, most likely.

He can use it, Toriyama was the one who suggested that Toei should make Piccolo use it in Dragon ball Z.Doctor. wrote:Piccolo can't use that technique, only in filler. It's Tenshinhan-exclusive in the manga. So it's the afterimage, most likely.
Re: What techniques do you think should return?
Gohan needs to use the masenko, piccolo needs to use the hell zone grenade, vegeta needs the big bang attack

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Burning Attack was only used once, and it did jack shit.Paper Lung wrote:I'll never understand why Toei didn't animate Trunks doing his most iconic move, Burning Attack, when he was brought back in Super. Instead, make way for Final Flash and Galic Gun!
It's just as "iconic" as Trunks' "Heat Dome" attack, which proved much more useful. Everyone thinks the Burning Attack is so iconic just because it's used a lot in games.

Re: What techniques do you think should return?
The Burning Attack is iconic. Icon status does not have to come from the series or manga, it is just what fans think of when it comes to Trunks' attacks.Saturnine wrote:Burning Attack was only used once, and it did jack shit.Paper Lung wrote:I'll never understand why Toei didn't animate Trunks doing his most iconic move, Burning Attack, when he was brought back in Super.

Re: What techniques do you think should return?
And it's for all the wrong reasons. Just like Broly's greenish hair is iconic, when that was supposed to be a transitional state and discarded by the end of movie 8 and the entirety of movie 10.namekiansaiyan wrote:The Burning Attack is iconic.

Re: What techniques do you think should return?
I've forgot about Good Buu's Recovery Beam and Healing Hand, having a teammate that can fix you during a battle could be useful(as shown by Future Zamasu in the manga), and I would like to see Good Buu use absorption since according to dragonball wiki he can still do that via his Chocolate Beam.

Re: What techniques do you think should return?
I'd love to see the Afterimage and Solar Flare return. And other non-kai blast techniques return. Don't know why they aren't used more often, when they could be very useful in a battle. With Roshi returning, it'd be nice to see him use some of the techniques he showed in the early Dragon Ball tournaments. Same with Tien.

Reality Warping like how Janemba was using it, but on a more bigger scale.
Re: What techniques do you think should return?
Piccolo and Vegeta using the Super Explosive Wave, both only used it once in the manga, also Krillin's Expanding Blast used against the Saibaman and as others have pointed out the After-image.
