It's been almost 40 years and the Kamehameha is still hype every time

Vergil from DMC5s ultimate move "Judgment Cut End". As satisfying as it is devastating.

The move is definitely iconic. I feel that way about the Special Beam Cannon. Something about the pose, the beam effect, and how only a handful of characters use it, makes me hyped anytime I see it used.

Also, I hope someone posts Roy Harper's completely pointless flips from the arrowverse. Maybe not thrilling, but definitely iconic for the character, and kind of charming in their stupidity.

Piccolo's Special Beam Cannon was a childhood favorite, even more than the Kamehameha

The protagonist's and villain's powers of basically every season of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (after 2) is insanely hard to beat

Every season has such a unique and quirky power that can still be insanely, uniquely hype

Best part is that it's never about raw power or force, but how you can manipulate or undermine people and scenarios. It's always gotta be used purely creatively, never just "big gun win"

Also have to mention the Rider Kick, but the Faiz version is easily my favorite:

I know there are other moves more popular in Dragonball/Z/Super/GT, but Tien is my favorite character and his Kikoho (Tribeam) move fits him so well. Bonus points because it's more powerful than anything he has any right to produce, at the expense of actual HP.

Its not tied to a particular person or character but, I'm really fond of that stunt move where the person does a scorpion on to their heads lol, I've been seeing it pop up occasionally. It has a name but, Im completely blanking out on it.
