Looked cool

Beams aren't supposed to drill, but this one does. That's why it's so special.
>>
>>143874893
It was a drill.

>>143874893
Piccolo did make 2 saiyans croak with only one shot.
>>
it's a piercing attack, like how the kienzan is a cutting attack

the former actually kills something

thanx doc

it defied power levels

>>143874893

It's literal translation would be something like "Devil Drill Beam" but, of course, murrifags can't say or hear "devil".

he can do it with 1 hand

>>143874893
The power is concentrated. It makes no sense later because muh powerlevel and pico becomes weak comparated to goku but technically this is the strongest attack after genkidama.

No, Makkankosappo is like Demon Light Flash or some shit like that.

Wasn't that the Masenko?

>posting bout proper translations
>missing the point

devil drill beam is still a problematic name because the attack has nothing to do with devils (then again Kamehameha has nothing to do with turtles)
>>
>>143880484
Isn't the Turle part thanks to it being a attack created by the Turtle School?
>>
>>143880484

"The Demon King Piccolo"
>>
>>143874893
sexy and aesthetic af

stop being a bitch and take your dose
>>
>>143880484

Piccolo literally used to be a demon before they ruined everything with aliens
>>
>>143881032
I just now realized that they actually said devil in the German dub

I liked the Finnish translated name a lot.
>Surmankierre
"Spiral of Death", "kierre" meaning spiral and "surma" meaning death. However, the exact context is a little more complicated than that. In modern Finnish, "surma" is more or less a synonym for "kuolema", or death, but more specifically it implies a death that was accidental and potentially violent. There's an old idiom in Finnish, "joutua surman suuhun", "end up in surma's mouth", which means one is going into a dangerous situation, and gives the impression that surma is some sort of beast or hellhound that one is devoured by upon death. And in that sense the use of the word "surma" here lines up with the original Japanese name for the move really well, with its use of "ma" or devil, while also not going overboard with the length of the name like a full translation of the original name would.

If linguistics is autism, then I want to be the master autist

>>143874893
It'd be a much cooler attack if it were named something like "spiral death beam" or "doom laser" or nail gun"
