Learn how to defeat Kid Buu in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot. This guide covers Vegito vs. Super Buu and Goku/Vegeta vs. Kid Buu strategies, moves, and tips.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Vegito vs. Super Buu: Super Buu retains most of his previous moves, with the addition of summoning five Kamikaze Ghosts that home in on the player. Vegito has borrowed moves like Big Bang Attack and Kamehameha, plus new skills: Split Finger Shot (a Ki attack that splits and converges) and Spirit Sword (a melee combo). The fight is similar to previous encounters with Buu, with the Kamikaze Ghosts being the main new threat.
  2. 2
    Goku vs. Kid Buu (Phase 1): After Vegito's plan, you gain control of Goku. Kid Buu appears in his basic, most evil form. The fight begins with Kid Buu summoning three clones with a single health bar; it's advised to defeat these first. Kid Buu's new moves include Rolling Attack (a charging attack easily dodged by steering left or right), a special Kamehameha (which can be interrupted by attacking him to fill a meter, leading to a follow-up), and Infinity Buster (a barrage of Ki blasts best dodged by slow sidestepping). Candy Beam returns, and Kid Buu can enter Surge mode, performing back-to-back Super Attacks, culminating in Planet Burst (a large AoE attack that requires escaping a marked zone). Planet Burst can also occur outside of Surge mode.
  3. 3
    Goku vs. Kid Buu (Phase 2): Kid Buu has a lot of health, making this a long fight. Continue to manage his attacks, especially Planet Burst.
  4. 4
    Vegeta vs. Kid Buu: After some story progression, you will fight Kid Buu as Vegeta. The battle is largely the same as when fighting as Goku. Kid Buu retains most of his moves, including Planet Burst. New moves include Calamity Blaster (a melee attack followed by a Ki blast, avoidable by blocking the initial hit) and Angry Shout (a stun attack that can be avoided by blocking and does no damage). These new moves are not used frequently.
Tips
  • For Super Buu's Kamikaze Ghosts, focus on dodging and maintaining awareness of their positions while attacking Buu.
  • When Kid Buu uses Rolling Attack, steer left or right to avoid the charge.
  • Interrupt Kid Buu's special Kamehameha by attacking him to cancel the move and create an opening.
  • Dodge Kid Buu's Infinity Buster by moving slowly left or right.
  • Always be prepared to escape the marked area for Planet Burst, whether Kid Buu is in Surge mode or not.
  • For Vegeta's fight against Kid Buu, blocking is effective against Calamity Blaster and Angry Shout.
