Holstein Shock is a Physical Martial Arts Technique where Ginew executes onto himself so he can use Body Change.
Usage[]
A powerful kumite strike used by Ginew on himself to reduce his own physical strength to weaken himself before using the Body Change against his opponent.[1] The technique weakens Ginew's body to the point that the victim cannot move once trapped in his body,[2] and they are generally expected to die from this technique.[3]
Trivia[]
- While this technique wasn't named in the manga and anime, it was named in Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit.
- Holstein refers to a typically black-and-white breed of large dairy cattle. This is in line with Ginew's name, which is the Japanese word for "milk", and matches the theme of his other techniques.
