"No! No, that can't be meant for us! That's way too much energy; it's enough to blow up the planet ten times!"

Planet Burst (プラネットバースト Puranetto Bāsuto)[13][14][15][16][17][18] is Kid Buu's most powerful technique. It is referred to as his "Earth-Destroying Single Blow" (地球崩壊の一撃 Chikyū Hōkai no Ichigeki) in official books.

Overview[]

Kid Buu throws his Planet Burst

First, Kid Buu raises one hand in the air and gathers his energy in the form of a giant, bright-pink energy sphere. Once it is ready, he launches the energy sphere at the opponent, inflicting a huge amount of damage. Goku notes that in its first use, it is strong enough to blow the Earth up at least ten times (in the Funimation dub) and that he and Vegeta combined cannot stop it. Its strength is such that weaker ki attacks used in an attempt to halt the Planet Burst are simply drawn into it and absorbed to empower it further.

Usage[]

Kid Buu uses this attack to destroy the Earth after his previous attack is deflected by Vegeta's Final Burst Cannon. He also uses it to destroy other planets to track down Goku and Vegeta and uses miniature versions during his battle with Super Saiyan 2 Goku on the Sacred World of the Kai.

In Xenoverse, it is named Super Vanishing Ball and is one of Kid Buu's Ultimate Skills. The Future Warrior can obtain it as a reward in Parallel Quest 38: "Blast the Super Spirit Bomb!". Kid Buu also has two variations Vanishing Ball and Teleporting Vanishing Ball. During the game's story, in an altered history of the Majin Buu conflict, Super Buu under the influence of Demigra's Dark Magic uses the technique to destroy Earth. Fortunately, the Future Warrior manages to correct history somewhat when Kid Buu also under Demigra's magic uses the technique to destroy Earth.

In Extreme Butōden, it is named Annihilate Earth in One Go.

In Xenoverse 2, Super Vanishing Ball return as one of Kid Buu's Ultimate Skills and can be purchased from the Skill Shop in Conton City. Pure Majins gain access to this technique when using the Purification Awoken Skill transformation. After the 1.15.00 Update, Super Vanishing Ball can be added to Janemba's custom skillset after purchasing it in his Partner Customization.

In FighterZ, Planet Burst is Kid Buu's Level 3 Meteor attack, although it starts off with Kid Buu letting out an Angry Shout to immobilize the opponent before throwing the Burst itself to finish them off. The initial shout must connect for the rest of the move to play out.

In Dragon Ball Legends, it is named Super Planet Burst and is Buu: Kid (DBL17-06S)'s Ultimate Move Arts. Buu: Kid (DBL17-06S) can teach his Special Move Arts to Shallot after reaching Friendship Rank 2. Additionally, Legends Limited Buu: Kid (DBL32-02S) will perform Planet Burst as part of the Legendary Finish for Destruction Blaster.
