The Kamehameha is the most famous signature attack in the Dragon Ball series, closely associated with Goku across the anime, films, and games. Clips of the charging phase became popular in fan edits because the audio alone suggests rising power and imminent action. Online, creators use it far beyond Dragon Ball clips, often to parody overdramatic build-ups or to make ordinary moments feel like the start of a final battle. Its lasting popularity comes from how instantly recognizable the charge-up is to anime fans.
