"You mean to tell me he's been holding this much energy back this whole time?!"
— Vegeta in shock in "A Nightmare Transformation! Frieza's Power-Level One Million?!"

Masendan (魔閃弾 Masendan, lit. "Demon Flash Bullet") is an Energy Sphere variation of the Masenko used by Gohan.

Overview[]

First, Gohan puts his hands above his head like the normal Masenko but keeps charging it until it forms an energy sphere. Then, he grabs the energy sphere with his hand and draws it back up to his side. Finally, Gohan shouts, "Take this!" and throws the attack at the opponent, inflicting a great amount of damage.

Usage[]

Gohan uses this attack during the battle against Frieza in his second form. After witnessing his friend Krillin being nearly killed by Frieza, an enraged Gohan attacks Frieza with a powerful barrage of punches, kicks and rapid energy blasts, knocking the tyrant down to the ground and creating a massive dome of energy where he is lying. Gohan then charges and fires the Masendan down at the massive energy dome, creating a huge explosion and inflicting some serious damage to Frieza.

It appears in Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors as one of Krillin's Level 1 Super Attacks under the name Full Power Ki Bullet (フルパワー気弾 Furupawā Kidan), where he summons Kid Gohan to fire the energy ball. In Jump Ultimate Stars, it is Gohan's mid-air strong attack.
