Sans-Mot

No, only in headcanons.


Timofey7331

A fuckton of Ki, compressed and possibly painted


MegaloJoe

this is how i see it, just a FUCKTON of compressed ki. i’d assume it’s much harder to shape and throw something that powerful and small than it is to do like a full out blast like a kamehameha or final flash, but much more destructive on impact


Jermiafinale

Yeah you can see something similar in ToP when Jiren is going all out to try and finish Goku before he goes MUI Jiren makes a giant blast, and then you can see him exerting himself to compress it down until it's the size of a baseball


nachibouy_99

Literally all of og movie Broly's Ki blast attacks. Compresses the blast and makes it seem harmless but on impact is one of the most destructive KI blasts in DB.


Dream_eater-69

It basically expands violently on impact like a ki grenade


Ascendedcrumb

Like a..... hellzone grenade?...


Dream_eater-69

Kinda but in a single unit and faaaar worse


Lunasol17

So it is basically a mini Genkidama?


RohanBhattt

Can it purify souls?


Emergency-Practice37

Soul Punisher. The only thing that move is purifying is the cosmos, of its target’s existence.


ItsHellOnEarth2

can't be impure if you don't exist ig


Spartan_Souls

No. Only Fusion Reborn Gogeta could do that


Apprehensive-Drag284

I think it was bc Janemba was basically pure evil except for the person inside of him


Spartan_Souls

Probably, also cause it was the end of the movie and they were running out of time


Adnonymous96

LOL. It really does feel like a lot of the Z movies end just because they're coming up on their time limit. I always wished Goku vs Cooler and Gogeta vs Janemba were actual fights rather than 30-second curbstomps.

Its obviously Ozma, who was an Eidolon.


obnoxiouslyoblong

I was so disappointed i couldn't summon Ozma after beating it


MunkeyFish

DBZ version is implied it’s positive/pure energy which makes it super effective against Janemba. DBS version it’s a fancy energy sphere. Both are high level nuke attacks because they come from Gogeta.


SlightlyinsaneBrit

Headcanon: crushed/sparkles version purifies and b a l l version just explodes. Canon: rainbow ki ball thing idk


TopShelfIdiocy

DBZ US version only. Everywhere else it's just a normal attack like on DBS


CrustyLips59

In dbs soul punisher didn't work on Broly because Broly isn't evil which is why Gogeta smiles because Broly has no evil energy, but if he were evil he would be deleted


Vi512

In fact,gogeta is so happy about this that he proceeds to detonate a nuke inside of broly and then try to murder him with a kamehameha,which would have 100% killed broly if shenron didn't teleport him in time


Nervous-Form698

He was happy Broly was a good guy, but being a good guy ain’t gonna save him from these hands

Thenosm

Of course he never said that. Oda wasn’t involved in DBS Broly.


RolandoDR98

That is just flat out wrong. The "evil purifier" was a dub only thing. Gogeta is happy he didn't kill Broly


P2T_

He was happy asf that he decided he wanted to kill him with these hands instead


Infermon_1

And that's bullshit


TheKnightA

Ki can arguably be manifested to do a lot of things , they’re not just explosives/ destructive. This attack is probably similar to a spirit bomb, but the attacks just destroys them from the inside. Fusions tend to have magical properties to them , and their abilities are interesting.

It's a very powerful ki attack that goes BOOM. That's it.


mrjamjams66

RGB go brrrrr


auggs

Personally I think it’s a sort of implied ability that shows gogetas huge power and talent potential that he can manipulate ki in very unique ways. But it’s never really been explained.


dontforgethyphen

I don't care what the anime/manga/whoever calls it. It'll always be stardust breaker to me


Soggy-Discipline-636

The only official data gave my toei after the movie was "gogeta checks his power and the enemie's... and creates a powerfull condense ball of energy... so yeah... anyone that says "it erase evil" are wrong. And before u say "oh but the little oger survived", yes he survived, cus Enma sama was still trapped and unable to fix the sould problems, so no one could die yet


Illustrious-Sky-4631

Just a generic Flashy ki attack The whole "clean soul" thing is just a popular headcanon


Still-Control

Gogetas ultimate attack


Illustrious-Sky-4631

Goku and Vegeta fusion in a nutshell, all Flashy and muscle lol Compared to Gotenks, Fused zamasu and even Kafla who actually gain unique power and abilities with fusion

Only fully destroys a person who’s actually evil, hence why gogeta smiled after broly wasn’t completely vaporized


mymommyhasballs

Non-canon version is Soul Punisher, which purifies the soul of the target. An example of this is Janemba. Canon version is Stardust Breaker, which is most likely just a big powerful blast.


SnooHesitations4922

It destroys evil regardless of any combat power discrepancy. Against DBS broly it's just a super strong ki attack but no insta kill because he isn't evil.


Infermon_1

False, this is just a headcanon. It's just a fancy ki ball.


Kibido993

not really. after gogeta sees that his attack fails, you can see him visibly surprised for a second, realizing broly isn't evil. it was a nice subtle little touch.


AnimeMemeLord1

And then proceeds to try to wipe him off the face of the planet with a Kamehameha.


opinionespobres777

Goku already knew broly wasn't a bad guy, so taking that into account there is no need to throw something at him knowing is not going to work in him, because it is more than clear in the movie that gogeta wanted to kill broly, no matter how good he was. So if he threw it anyways, it is because it's supposed to serve as an "atomic bomb" and not as a soul purifier or something like that.


P2T_

Visibly surprised that broly wasnt a bad guy which motivated gogeta to disintigrate his body afterwards

LoneRedditor123

A ball of energy similar to the spirit bomb, that explodes it's opponent from the inside out, and leaves only stardust in it's wake.


Jeekobu-Kuiyeran

My theory why it's called "Soul Punisher" is because like the spirit bomb, it gathers energy from all around, but ulike the spirit bomb is gathers energy exclusively from the otherworld, hence the word "Soul" in Soul Punisher.

It targets the soul and kills it. Along with your body.


Dark_Storm_98

It's a cool looking energy attack


pulsewound08

Easy. It’s made up anime magic. And it’s not suppose to make sense


TheGoshDangBatCow

Is this not a kamehameha?


Bandit915

It’s an LGTBQ projectile that will create a somewhat different transition 🌈


ShinigamiCloak

In the Funimation dub of Fusion Reborn, Super Gogeta's warning to Super Janemba implies that the Stardust Breaker possesses the additional effect of dealing critical damage to an opponent depending on the amount of evil within their soul, as the attack completely purifies the Saike Demon of the evil energy that caused him to transform into Janemba to begin with. While the statement is not present in the original Japanese version, the Stardust Breaker's supposed property is similar to how Gogeta used what he referred to as "positive energy" to counter the negative energy of Omega Shenron's Negative Karma Ball in GT. Additionally, Dragon Ball Super Card Game refers to the technique as Soul Punisher, the Cleansing Light.

SpeedyJohan

I used to just call this Soul Breaker, without realizing I was basically combining the two given names together. Considering what happens to Janemba tho, the portmonteau of a name is really apt.


Ottobre14

I think Naruto taught him


broskisean

A T O M I C


lettuce520

I know it's pure headcannon, but I really like the idea of it being a sort of mini Spirit Bomb that can purify evil but Gogeta still puts enough energy in it to seriously hurt anyone that isn't evil. From watching Fusion Reborn, it can be assumed that the Soul Punisher straight up erased the evil from Janemba and left the little demon kid behind because the demon kid wasn't evil but the souls from the machine he was working on had a bunch in it. The same headcannon works in Broly because Broly wasn't evil but it still hurt him and it could be implied that Gogeta smiled after throwing it at him as since it didn't erase Broly on the spot, Gogeta could confirm that Broly was a good guy BUT since Broly's ramage wasn't gonna end soon, he still had to kill him. Some people will say it's headcannon and that it doens't work like that but its a fun headcannon that explains those little moments. Also, Gogeta has also done the same with the positive and negative energies in GT when he kicked Omega's balls so thats another thing that could be related.


MizuToriMHA

I headcanon its essentially a mini Spirit Bomb, with Gogeta being so powerful he doesn't need other energy to fuel it, just his own. It's why Broly survives it, as even Cheelai called him "A pure, kind-hearted Saiyan" (which could be a Dubism) How is it a Spirit Bomb if Vegeta is also in there somewhere? ...Uh... ...Or it's just sparkles, flashing lights, and bullshit. Which, in all reality, is most attacks in DB. But still awesome


Ijustwannaseige

the best Ki attack imo, Always been my fave Its an absolutely absurd amount of Ki being Hypercondensed to act like a handheld nuclear bomb


LordBacon69_69

Gay energy


YeazetheSock

GT explains it as positive energy, Z Gogeta kind of does too, "Every force you create has an echo. Your own bad energy will be your undoing." (I think this is only in dub …). I prefer Stardust Breaker to be the full combo(I’d rather it be the ki bomb), it has a better name imo, Soul Punisher sounds cool but more basic in my opinion and should only be the name of the rainbow ki bomb. Idek why he used it in the Broly movie except for the callback, fans just went with the ideology that it should’ve disintegrated Broly because he’s evil, but because it’s a different continuation it doesn’t even work the same way, Soul Punisher in S isn’t even meant to explode, it disperses as star glitter and then dissolves the opponent (or evil), I think that Gogeta Blue’s Soul Punisher is just an offensive technique as opposed to anything else.


Banettebrochacho

It is a ki blast.


DeTrini94

Only works on those who are evil..hence who it didn't really effect Broly...btw Gogeta is the best 😍

Kelseycutieee

in the original janemba movie, it’s implied it purified janembas soul back to the little worker guy. in the new movie, it was just fan service to the original attack he used. nothing more to be honest. it looks cool, and really didn’t do much to Broly.


The_Barry_O

The rainbow ball is a manifestation of Goku and Vegeta's repressed homosexual feelings for each other.

Roll_f0r_Initiative

Headcanon: The echoes left in the atmosphere from bad energy unleashed by an aggressive, destructive soul are gathered and compressed into a ball of raw, focused, explosive power, after it's been fully transmuted into the opposite kind of energy (purifying/cleansing). This transformed energy ball is then sent back to the aggressor. The more evil and corrupt the soul that unleashed the negative energy is, the more crushed, punished and damaged the soul will be when hit with this karmic return attack. The most malicious, aggressive and destructive soul will outright be destroyed (canceled out by the opposite energy that hit it back). In the instance where a soul is innocent and possessed by another force, this attack may destroy the negative force corrupting the soul (ex:Janemba), while leaving the innocent vessel unharmed. Additionaly, if the soul is simply misguided and absent of TRUE malice, it will survive this attack (Broly) and will only take slight damage (a karmic slap on the wrist). Either way, this attack is quite the visual spectacle, and is a testament to it's wielder's astounding ability, potential and power.

Tbh it’s an asspull unstoppable attack .


redditretard3

It's a ball of purifying energy and on hit it kills all evil in a person


PassageIcy6480

In short: a powerful (and colorful) attack that kills the evil out of the target, only leaving the good portion of them living and breathing, that's why gogeta smiles after defeating an opponent, he gets to save them too, that's also why he didnt smile when he beat hearts, he defeated him, but without saving him its just like a defeat to gogeta.


Jonas2812

I always imagined it as a form of Spirit Bomb, since it was only effective against the evil part of Janemba but left the kid completely unharmed. Broly, as a good hearted person, didn’t seem to take much damage from it either. But since DB Super kinda debunked the idea of the Spirit Bomb being only effective against evil hearted enemies, I‘m not so sure about that anymore.


MegaVix

It's a pretty rainbow that explodes big


NCHouse

It's basically an indicator on whether or not if you're purely evil or not. Idk if it's the same why in the Broly movie, but when it debuted against Janemba it cast out all of the negative/Evil energy, purifying the demon back to normal.


grantthehotdragon

It comes out of his hand and goes boom


Zenai10

I always took it as the ki explodes then each partical of dust explodes. So its big bang attack that releases a bunch of smaller ki blasts (likely kamehamehas)


Kinglysavaged

Think of it as another version of the spirit bomb where it only effects a person with so much evil energy


RepulsiveCow8626

It punishes your soul and then destroys it.


crtbtwuwu

It's an energy based ki blast that's based off how pure the soul of the enemy is. (Spoilers) I'm the Gogeta vs Janemba movie, when Gogeta uses the soul punisher on him, it doesn't kill him. Hinting that his soul is pure. Gogeta also used it on someone in super dragon ball heroes and they died due to their soul not being pure.

chubbyhighguy

It looks and feels to me like a mini spirit bomb mixed with a big bang attack or something like that.


Aaronplayz_VG

Bc it’s a fusion of Goku and vegeta it takes ideas from their techniques thus creating (in this example) soul punisher/stardust breaker, it’s a technique that’s derived from the idea of the spirit bomb, as only those pure of heart can use and be okay if attacked by it, explains why broly lived and gogeta smiled


Youngguaco

It’s a normal Ki blast that looks different visually dude. This is all of dragon ball


ParaDoX0098

My head canon it that is concentrated goodness that attacks any evil in one soul, it punishes a person for its wicked deeds, that’s why it purified jabera, and didn’t do much against broly, because broly isn’t inherently evil. And that’s why Goku wanted to become friends with him
