MAX Power Kamehameha (MAXパワーかめはめ波 Makkusu Pawā Kamehameha) is a variation of The Original Kamehameha used by Master Roshi in his Max Power form and is his most powerful attack.

It is officially named Kamehameha Saidai Shutsuryoku (かめはめ波最大出力 lit. "Kamehameha at Maximum Output") in the Japanese version, referring to its debut in the manga and anime series.

Overview[]

While the fundamentals of the technique are exactly the same as a regular Kamehameha, the overall power of this Kamehameha is even greater due to Master Roshi being in his MAX Power form.

Usage and Power[]

Master Roshi first uses this attack to extinguish the roaring flames on Fire Mountain. The MAX Power Kamehameha succeeds in extinguishing the fire, but the blast is so powerful that it blows away the mountain and the Ox-King's castle.

Master Roshi later uses a more powerful version of it as Jackie Chun during his match against Goku at the 21st World Martial Arts Tournament.

In the Tournament of Power, Roshi uses this technique many times. He used it to knock Dium out of the arena. He used an even more powerful version of the MAX Power Kamehameha, powered by his own life force to knock Ganos out of the arena.

Film Appearances[]
