Kikoha, written in Japanese as 気功波 and rendered in the slug as qi gong bo, is the generic name for ki energy wave attacks in Dragon Ball. Fighters gather energy in their hands and fire it as a concentrated beam, a technique family that includes the famous Kamehameha. As anime clips spread through games, forums and short video edits, the charging hum and explosive release became a reusable shorthand for building power. Editors still use it whenever a character, player or meme subject needs an instantly recognisable anime power-up moment.
