If Goku needed a Spirit Bomb now, he could’ve manifested it in no time. Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero fans would be all that he might’ve needed, as the energy they’re emitting on the internet is worthwhile. The game is still around three months away from the release but that doesn’t really matter to fans.

A clip circulating on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) showcases the beloved protagonist Goku using Spirit Bomb. It’s not simply visually stunning; it’s cinematic in every sense, be it the expressions or the angles that go in there.

Fans Know it as The Best Moment From Dragon Ball Z

It’s not just Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 that leverages the potential of Unreal Engine 5 to its fullest extent; Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero makes a great show of it. Maybe this’ll add another reason for them to calling it a peak game.

Dragon Ball fans are getting more and more reasons to do so. Now they have a reason to call one technique we saw Goku using in the original anime the best in the game. It’s called the Spirit Bomb, and the clip is evident of how far the Budokai Tenkaichi has come.

A few days ago, Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero fans called the Instant Kamehameha Wave from a clip that was presented during the Anime Expo, meta ultimate.

Fans know that Goku executing the Spirit Bomb against Kid Buu (he calls him Majin Buu during the execution) remains the best moment from Dragon Ball Z.

Of course, how can anyone forget those three magical words.

This is certainly one of the instances that solidifies the fact that fans cannot wait to see the best bits of Goku in the Bandai Namco game.

Only Three of The Z Fighters are Known to Use the Spirit Bomb

One of them was Krillin. During the Saiyan Arc, Goku is unable to use it after draining a significant amount of his energy. That prompts him to transfer the Spirit Bomb he has manifested to Krillin.

Though Krillin is able to harness the power, he misses Vegeta as he throws it towards him. All thanks to Yajirobe’s yelling, the Saiyan Prince is alerted and eventually dodges the attack.

Then again, thanks to Goku, who telepathically communicates with his son, Gohan, who then deflects it back towards Vegeta. This specific variation of the technique was given the name Fusion Spirit Bomb.

We don’t know if this will be a thing in the Spike Chunsoft game, but it would be awesome to see it when users enter episodic battles in it.
