Crusher Ball (クラッシャーボール) is an energy sphere technique that is Jeice's super special attack.^[4]

OverviewEdit

Jeice was a pitcher in the Galactic Little League during his childhood, and it is there that he developed the Crusher Ball as his special technique.^[5] In order to use the attack, Jeice concentrates a high amount of energy in his left hand and creates a mid-sized, red-colored energy sphere by turning his palm upward. Then, Jeice slams the sphere with his open right hand hurling the energy sphere towards the opponent, inflicting a high amount of damage.

Jeice uses this attack once while fighting Goku on Namek. After swiftly evading Burter and Jeice's previous attacks, Burter suggests that Jeice uses the Crusher Ball as a distraction so Goku can leave his guard down. Jeice does so, however, Goku easily deflects the attack like it is a beach ball (comment by Jeice).

Appearances in Video GamesEdit

This attack appears in Dragon Ball Z II: Gekishin Freeza, Dragon Ball Z: Super Saiya Densetsu, Dragon Ball Z: The Legend, the Budokai Tenkaichi series and Raging Blast series as Jeice's Ultimate Blast. In Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi, it is a Blast 2 attack (Jeice's ultimate being the Red Comet Attack). Jeice uses this attack when Captain Ginyu summons him in the Supersonic Warriors series.

Zarbon is capable of performing the Crusher Ball in Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22 and Dragon Ball Z: Shin Butōden, named Destructive Sphere in the English version of Ultimate Battle 22. Captain Ginyu uses it in Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors.

TriviaEdit

• During the time FUNimation Entertainment started dubbing the series, it was called "Power Ball". This was changed in the redub.
