What is the name of Kaioshin's teleportation technique?

Post by Tyro » Mon Oct 14, 2013 9:45 am

I noticed it was not given an "official" name in Daizenshuu #7's Special Attack Dictionary or Special Attack Index. Has it been named elsewhere, maybe something that differentiates it from Goku's Instantaneous Movement?

It's called "Kai-Kai", and it is indeed listed in the Special Attack Dictionary.

For the record, the name "Kai-Kai" comes from the manga: it's what Kibito says when teleporting Gohan to the Kaioshin Realm, though there it's not clear whether this is supposed to be a proper technique name or some chant ala Babidi's "paparappah". I think that's the only time it's said in the manga, but in the anime Kibito/Kibito-Kaioshin say it several times from teleporting.

Chapter: 509 (DBZ 315), P9.3
Context: after Boo teleports to the Kaioshin Realm
Goku: “I-I know…That bastard saw Kaioshin’s teleportation earlier…! He copied the technique in that instant…!”

I see. Do they give a new name to the Kaioshin-Kibito fusion? As far as I remember they just "Kaioshin" until the end of the series.

Funny enough, Kai-Kai is not a technique listed in Pure Boo's Special Attack Index.

Thanks guys, I really wanted to know what the original name for the Kaioshin teleportation technique was. I only knew of Instantaneous movement from the dub.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Pretty sure it's always just "Kaioshin" in the manga. Which makes sense, since "Kaioshin" is just a title and it'd be weird to merge that with Kibito's name, but it'd still be handy to have a standard term to call that form.
