General Overview

An overview of the technique, such as uses, conception, etc. Its length should be relative to the technique's importance in the series, but brevity and conciseness is still expected.

Usage

First arc and 21st Tenka'ichi Budōkai arc

• The first Kamehameha in the series is performed by its inventor, the Turtle Hermit, to put out the inferno at Mount Frypan in Dragon Ball Chapter 14. He inadvertently blows up the entire mountain in the process.
• Though the Turtle Hermit says it took him fifty years to master the Kamehameha, Son Goku immediately manages to copy it and fire off a small one, wrecking a car in Chapter 15.
• Trapped inside Pilaf's Castle in Chapter 19, Goku attempts to break a wall with the Kamehameha, but the result is merely a small hole. This does allow Oolong and Pu'er to fly through it after transforming into bats, and prevent Pilaf's wish from being granted.
• Having entered the Tenka'ichi Budōkai as "Jackie Chun", the Turtle Hermit uses the Kamehameha to get back into the ring during his match against Kuririn in Chapter 43.
• In the final match, Goku and Jackie Chun have a Kamehameha versus Kamehameha clash in Chapter 47.
• When Goku turns into a Great Ape, Jackie Chun uses a "Kamehameha Max Power" to blow up the moon in Chapter 51.
• In Chapter 52, Jackie Chun attempts to use the Kamehameha again, but does not have enough energy left. Goku does manage to use one in return, though, which almost results in Jackie Chun going out of bounds.

Red Ribbon Army and Fortuneteller Crone arcs

• When Goku fights Sergeant Metallic in Chapter 59, he thinks Metallic fired a "Kamehameha-looking thing from his mouth", so he uses a Kamehameha of his own, blowing Metallic's head off. Goku fears he has killed a person, but the robot continues to move.
• Goku attempts a Kamehameha against Buyon in Chapter 64, but it bounces off just like every other attack.
• Goku uses the Kamehameha to get out of a giant octopus' clutches in Chapter 76.
• Goku fires off a Kamehameha to propel himself, Bulma, Kuririn and a mouse out of the Pirate Cave and up out of the water in Chapter 79.
• Goku blasts Tao Pai-pai with a Kamehameha in Chapter 86, but it has no effect beyond shredding the assassin's clothes.
• While tearing through the Red Ribbon Army's base in Chapter 94, Goku uses a Kamehameha to blow up a flying vehicle, which sends the flying vehicle next to it crashing into a tower.
• The Fortuneteller Crone's masked fighter uses a Kamehameha to surprise Goku in Chapter 106, who surprises him in return by using a Kamehameha of his own in Chapter 107.
• In Chapter 110, Goku uses a Kamehameha to blast the combined Pilaf Machines, wrecking Mai's one in particular.
