A single punch that somehow has multiple residual hits, this being caused by the Golden Dragon.

And this is indeed the Dragon Fist used on Eis.

Wasn't that just him punching them repeatedly really, really fast?

[up][up] So the Golden Dragon is the multi-hit punch in this, like it was in BT3?

Pretty much. The melee super is the Budokai version while the ultimate is the Tenkaichi version.

[up][up] Kugi Punch? Nail Gun?

To me; Dragon Fist = move Goku used to punch through Super 17, Dragon Fist Explosion = Dragon Fist used on Hirudegarn and in the games, Dragon Hammer = move used on Omega Shenron, Dragon (Fist) Kamehameha = full attack used to kill Super 17, and Super Dragon Fist = move used to kill Eis.

The Dragon Fist is a single hit attack.

It's a single punch that makes a Dragon appear around Goku's fist. The dragon itself is just aesthetic, since what actually deals the damage is Goku's punch, not the Dragon.

All versions of the Dragon Fist should essentially work in the exact same way, and just be aesthetically different, which makes it utterly pointless to have more than a single version. At most, you could go for Dragon Fist and Super Dragon Fist, being a Super Move and an Ultimate Move, respectively, with Dragon Fist being the straight-punch-through version and Super Dragon Fist making the dragon coil around the target before exploding.

PS: The Dragon Fist, and I do mean the actual move, is used four times... Once in the Hildegarn movie and thrice in GT... and never in the actual manga.

Which is a shame because it's an awesome move.

If a little haphazard. Imagine, one day...

"Hey Piccolo, remember how you wanted to try that special beam whatever technique on me in the next tournament? Well, I was working on a new technique to test on you too, I call it the Dragon Fist."

-demonstrates the technique-

"What the hell Goku, I came up with the Makankkosapo for the explicit purpose of killing you. You, Mr. Fair-Fight-Thou Shall Not Kill-Whatever, you decide on a giant, golden dragon that shoots out of your fist and rams into the opponent!?"

If it was just the punch that deals damage, then explain how the dragon worked with Hirudegarn.

Hell, that dragon shifted between being a dragon, and just a giant stream of fire.

So she brought Dabura back to life... and upgraded him.

Now, send him back in time to kill Son Gohan, the only people guarding him were Piccolo and Chi-Chi.

[up][up][up]What is there to explain?

Goku punched Hildegarn so hard Hildegarn exploded.

[up][up]You know, putting her face right next to Dabura's does make me wonder:

How come Towa doesn't have horns?

No...Goku threw a punch, an explosion happened, a massive stream of fire shot forward, switching between that and the dragon, as it shot through Hirudegarn, came out of the ground, coiled around him as a physical construct since we see him struggling against the coil, then he and the dragon atomize before whatever is left over ascends to the skies, Goku now standing on the ground.

Now that Dabura's been resurrected, ya think he'll come back for the next Xenoverse? I mean, he is Towa's big bro after all.

It should have involved a real fucking dragon being summoned out of Ki.

Dabura should've been in Xenoverse to begin with. I mean, not because he's plot relevant, but because it would've been funny to have him and Towa fight.

One explanation I'm hearing for whatever the hell is going on is that due to the fact that Videl is pregnant with Pan she is somehow siphoning energy from her part saiyan baby, which is why she can go Super Saiyan.

But that sounds completely stupid.
