Fire Breath (火炎放射) is a fire elemental technique used by Dabura, Hirudegarn, and Golden Great Apes among others. The user fires an immense, blazing flare or fire balls from their mouth that severely burns its target(s), and causes destructive effects to any area that is caught within the flames.

This technique was first used in Dragon Ball Z by the filler character Princess Snake while she was in her evil snake form.

Variations

Gigantic Flame

Hirudegarn's Genma Flame

Hirudegarn uses the Gigantic Flame against Super Saiyan 2 Vegeta after throwing him onto a building in the movie Dragon Ball Z: Wrath of the Dragon. Vegeta uses an Energy Shield to protect the civilians in the building, but loses consciousness due to the high amount of energy used to resist the attack.

In Dragon Ball GT, the Gigantic Flame was used by Great Apes and Golden Great Apes. Also in Dragon Ball GT, Great Ape Vegeta uses a Chou Makouhou Barrage very similar to Fire Breaths.
