A fake Kamehameha performed by Gogeta that releases confetti and streamers instead of an energy beam. A deliberately comedic attack used to taunt and infuriate Omega Shenron during their battle in Dragon Ball GT.
Gogeta assumes the classic Kamehameha stance, cupping his hands at his side with all the dramatic weight of a genuine finisher. He announces the attack as his "ultimate technique," building anticipation for a devastating blast. When fired, the attack produces a burst of confetti, streamers, and party favors instead of any energy whatsoever. The entire sequence is played for maximum comedy, with Gogeta barely containing his own laughter at the result.
During his battle with Omega Shenron, Gogeta multiplies himself into five copies using the Multi-Form technique, with all five assuming the Kamehameha pose simultaneously. He builds up the moment by claiming the combined blast will finish Omega permanently. The reveal that it was all a prank leaves Omega covered in party decorations and furious. Vegeta later blames Goku for wasting their limited fusion time on the stunt.
Despite appearing to be pure foolishness, the Bluff Kamehameha serves a tactical purpose. Omega Shenron's rage at being humiliated pushes him to launch his Negative Karma Ball, which is exactly what Gogeta needs. Gogeta purifies the Negative Karma Ball and uses its dispersal to cleanse the negative energy contaminating Earth, turning Omega's anger into the catalyst for undoing much of the damage the Shadow Dragons had caused.
The Bluff Kamehameha is one of the most memorable comedic moments in Dragon Ball GT and reflects the playful personality that emerges when Goku's carefree nature dominates a fusion. The technique appears in several video games including Infinite World, Xenoverse, and FighterZ, where it typically functions as either a taunt move or a feint that transitions into a real attack. It stands as a reminder that even in the highest-stakes battles, Dragon Ball never fully abandons its comedic roots.
