Paralysis Technique

* Blue
* Chaozu
* Freeza (Anime only)
* Gurd
* Muten Rōshi
* Shin
* Zamasu (Manga only)
* Zamasu (Future) (Manga only)

**Paralysis Technique** is a technique to restrain the opponent.

## Usage

The Paralysis Technique is, as the name implies, a technique meant to inflict paralysis on the target. The technique has multiple methods of activation, from staring at the eyes to utilizing it through the hands, and even physically pressing a pressure point. The method of activation also determines how the technique functions; commonly, this technique is executed through psychic power, however, Jackie Chun utilized it by paralyzing the motor nerves. This can also be used on multiple people, as seen when used by Gurd.

## Trivia

* In the video games, Freeza is commonly seen employing this ability. Other characters, such as Majin Boo and Piccolo display similar abilities to paralyze their targets in the video games.
* In the anime, this technique's depiction has changed multiple times. When used by Gurd in *Dragon Ball Z* to paralyze Gohan and Kuririn, they were wrapped in orange light, and when used by Chaozu and Freeza in *Dragon Ball Super*, it appeared as a yellow sphere or red sphere, making it resemble the Capturing Light Shell. These are just two of multiple appearances across two series.
* The future Zamasu equates this, and his Psychokinesis, to his status as a god. This in spite of many mortals using the technique before his debut in the series.

Realm of Nothingness

The **Realm of Nothingness** (無の界, *Mu no Kai*; *FUNimation* "Null Realm") is a dominion of emptiness, devoid of time or space. It is an infinite nothingness, and as such, godly fighters such as Son Gokū can fight within this space without limitations. According to the Grand Priest, methods of flight are disabled within the Realm of Nothingness. It is also the location of the Tournament of Power.

It is later explained that the Realm of Nothingness can be controlled — though by who and what isn't stated, and the limitations for the Tournament of Power thought to be part of the World of Nothingness are in fact part of this control. A unique feature to the Realm of Nothingness is that it causes each individual to experience the gravity of their birth planet. Thus, no individual would have an advantage over another due to being accustomed to being born on a planet with stronger gravity.

Restoration from the Verge of Death

* Bardock (Anime only)
* Cell
* Gokū Black
* Son Gohan
* Son Gokū
* Vegeta
* Broly (Video-game only)

**Restoration from the Verge of Death** is a unique characteristic that found among the Saiyan race.

## Usage

Part of what makes the Saiyan race such efficient fighters is their method of healing. While a Saiyan does not appear to heal any faster than a Earthling, they have a very unique buff that occurs when they've recovered from injuries that prove to be near fatal, where the Saiyan gains a large increase in power. This buff was exploited by Saiyans in the Freeza's Army; after battles, the injured Saiyan could be placed in a rejuvenation chamber by a doctor working for the Empire, and would find their wounds healed within a generally short period of time, When the healing session concludes, the healed Saiyan would find an increase in power and return to the battlefield. According to Vegeta, a boost will not be received if the wound is self-inflicted, meaning it has to come from an external source. Additionally, a Saiyan can easily exploit this buff should they choose to; if the situation presents itself, a Saiyan can lower his own energy to make himself vulnerable to a weaker comrade's lethal blow, and then be healed back to their full capacity, and still receive a very sizable boost.

This power boost appears to increase exponentially with each use. Gokū's usage of it for examples had minimal power ups the first few times he used it, against his near death with Piccolo. After using it repeatedly, his fighting strength went from 90,000 to 3,000,000 when he recovered from his fight against Captain Ginyū. There have been times where the power boost from healing has either been minimal or non-existent, as seen when Gohan was fighting the evil Majin Boo. Dende had used his healing abilities to heal Gohan, who had been close to dying, but Gohan was still outmatched, showing the boost was either minimal or simply had not occurred.

## In Other Media

### Video Games

In the *XenoVerse* series, Restoration from the Verge of Death is represented by the unique traits the Saiyans are afforded within the game, coming in the form of two separate buffs. When a Saiyan's health drops below 25%, their attack stat is bolstered. When a Saiyan is defeated, but revived, all of their stats are bolstered as well. While these buffs are in effect, a Saiyan gains a soft white aura.

## Trivia

* Due to persisting amounts of misinformation, this term is incorrectly referred to as a "Zenkai" (全開, *Full Release*) by the fanbase. The term was used in the *Dragon Ball Z* ending theme, Come Out, Incredible ZENKAI Power!.

## Notes

1. ↑ Vegeta was the only fighter present able to read Freeza's moves after his near-death experience, showing his fighting strength had gone up to a fraction of Freeza's own power.

PP Candy

* Bulma (inventor)

The **PP Candy** is a candy Bulma made for fun.

## Usage

The PP Candy is a frightful candy which causes diarrhea in those who ingest it for an entire month. They taste sweet and look like regular candy balls, however, when someone whistles "Pii-Pii", the person who consumed the PP Candy will get a serious case of the runs. This condition will last for a full month, where the person who ate the candy will get diarrhea at any time when someone whistles "Pii-Pii", and this is the same no matter who whistles it. For the person who ate the candy, it is an item of pure misery, but for those who observe it, it is a laugh riot.

## Trivia

* Depending on the source material, the keyword Bulma used would be different. In the English manga, Bulma instead whistled "Swee!", a call used by farmers to let pigs know when it's feeding time. In the various dubs, she would instead used "Piggy!".
Psychokinetic Choke

* Babidi
* Zamasu

## Personality

Due, to the antiquated design of No. 15, the Android was designated without distinctive personality traits, nor the function of autonomy. The only personality traits that can be attributed are small facial patterns in the form of smiles the character was able to give, due in part to the commands given by Gero's supercomputer.

## Abilities

No. 15 (partly with No. 14's help) was able to pressure both Son Goku and Trunks in their base forms. He later held his own against a SSJ Vegeta, and had caused the latter to lose the form seconds before his death.

## Trivia

* In the FUNimation dub, No. 15's personality is more based in his use of Ebonics a colloquial way of speaking uninformal English. He speaks more often than No. 14 does, and as such tends to handle the communication.
* In Chapter 350, No. 18 states that Gero disposed of all the Androids he created up through No. 15.

However, he was easily defeated by Super Saiyan Gohan in a single punch. In *Super*, Piccolo viewed him as a threat and challenge when Shisami went to face Gohan.

## Interlude

### Dragon Ball Z: Revival of "F"

Satan's Poisoned Chocolate

* Majin Boo

The **Satan's Poisoned Chocolates** are poisoned chocolates made by Mister Satan.

## Usage

The box is filled with 25 'chocolates.' Though their appearance and smell are indistinguishable from regular chocolates, they are packed with poison which Mister Satan prepared to assassinate Majin Boo with. Satan lied that these boxed chocolates were a fabulous present and had Majin Boo eat them. In order to lower Boo's suspicions, it's fixed up to give off a high-class feel, with a ribbon and everything. Boo had an immunity against poison though, so for him these were nothing more than delicious chocolates. He was delighted that they tasted even better than the chocolates he made from humans.

Roar

* Kiai
* Rumoosh

**Roar** is an ability utilized by Rumoosh.

## Usage

Due to his large lungs, Rumoosh is capable of utilizing a gargantuan roar that paralyzes the motor nerves of anyone who hears it. Fellow Hakaishin are not immune, as it immediately paralyzed and terrified all of the Hakaishin present. For those as weak as the Kaiōshin, it goes as far as to render them unconscious.

## Trivia

* Exclusive to the video-games; Vegeta's roar as a Great Monkey was referred to as such.
* In the *VIZ* localization, it is said that Rumoosh has the largest lungs in all the Universes, and that is what allows for this technique. Given the existence of things such as the Great Monkey Transformation, this is obviously false. The original Japanese also only states that Rumoosh has large lungs.

### English

Attached to chains, as you walk away

The bustling city flows on, seeming to swallow you up

If you can see at your feet, where discarded dreams have come to rest

Let’s set out for a town that’s not on the map, even though it’s foolish

Let’s blast through the now with a rusty machinegun

Let’s choose to smile in the dry evening

Even though you’ve come out of the darkness and gotten

A normal life, it just becomes an empty shell

If your stirred heart feels the same as it did back then

Let’s throw it all away and get out; this time for sure, we two can run away

Let’s blast through the now with a rusty machinegun

Because even the paths we’ve wandered blindly haven’t been in vain

Taking in the frigid wind, I watched the setting evening sun

I want to cherish these odds of our miraculous meeting

Let’s blast through the now with a rusty machinegun

Let’s choose to smile in the dry evening

Let’s blast through the now with a rusty machinegun

* Number 16
* Saibaiman
* Son Gokū (Anime only)

**Self-Destruction** is referred to as both a Ki Manipulation Technique, and an ability used
to blow up one's own body to inflict damage to the opponent.

## Usages

Self Destructions is an inherent ability to blow themselves, at the cost of their lives. Additionally in the film, Kami uses his variation through the use of Ki. The method varies — Chaozu utilises his psychic abilities, Cell inflates his body, the Saibaimen also naturally possess the ability, and No. 16 utilises a bomb implanted in his body.

In the anime, Son Gokū and Kami both attempted similar techniques, utilizing their *ki* in an attempt for a last-ditch explosion. Despite utilizing *ki*, it is considered the same ability as the Self-Destruction that others use which is inherent to their being.
