Goku is the main hero of Dragon Ball, the manga and anime series created by Akira Toriyama, and his long power-up screams became a defining trait in Dragon Ball Z during his Super Saiyan transformations. Those extended roars were often paired with rising energy, shaking ground and glowing auras, and clips of them were shared widely online as anime fandom grew. Shortened into a standalone sound, the scream became a shorthand in edits and memes for going all out, powering up, or losing control in an exaggerated, over-the-top way.
About this sound
Goku's powerful roar and power-up scream from Dragon Ball, used in anime edits, reaction memes and videos to show intense rage or transformation.
This is a raw, drawn-out scream from Goku as he powers up, starting low and guttural before climbing into a full-throated roar that shakes with energy. The six-second clip captures the strain in his voice, the rising pitch, and the sheer effort of a transformation charging toward its peak. With no music or dialogue over it, the roar feels primal and overwhelming. Viewers instantly read it as limit-breaking anger or determination, which is why it lands so hard as a sudden burst of intensity in an otherwise calm scene.
