How does One-Handed Kamehameha Mark 2 actually work?

[tipsyConfection]

I mean, the second blast.
From the lore standpoint...
How does F.Gohan/Future Warrior actually does the second blast?
It's difficult to see due to cinematic camera you know.

You press the button again after firing it

No, no, no, no, i am not talking about MECHANICS.
I'm asking from the lore standpoint.

I mean, it seems in this story he didn't lose his other arm. So he just does a one handed kamehameha with each arm, probably charging the second one while firing the first.

Though if he had one arm still I guess Mk II could function like the X4 Kamehameha and he'd pump more energy in to it after connecting.

Edit note -

As for why he'd bother doing a one handed kamehameha when he has two arms, my guess would be either...

A - He's a dork
or
B - So he could try to fire one at both Androids, since he was often in a 2 v 1

or if you're looking for a literal lore description

Still, it just looks like he fires it with the same arm.
I could be wrong, but i think i can see him doing second blast with the same arm in the end.
It's just a second of scenery, but still.
I am really confused, i really want to know how it actually works.
Plus, even that he still has an arm, it looks like it's broken, he isn't using it in his fighting style anyway, iirc.

If you look closely enough, he is just using his right arm to fire the Kamehameha.

This version of Future Gohan is the one without his left arm, though due to game mechanics they keep the left arm due to some attacks most likely, and it could also be due to it being just easier then having to make a completely new rig for just one character.

Most likely due to later, yes. After all, he would be the only one without an arm. Too much work for such a little detail.

Yup, I remember having Future Gohan in Tenkaichi 3 too, and he still had his left arm in that game, though never used it.

But if you look at how many characters fire ki blasts, take a look at Goku vs Vegeta in their first beamstruggle.

So I'd just say, he pushes more energy through, thereby continuing his blast. ^^

If you mean lore, a Kamehameha can be fired one handed, AND powered up mid blast, with one hand. We see this in the father Son Kamehameha. Yes, one could say "But Goku was there!". He was not. He was in the dead realm, communicating via telepathy. It's not clear if Goku actually sent his power to Gohan, or he simply made his son tap on his full power. But the image of Goku next to Gohan in the power up section is just that, an image.

Still, Gohan kept firing with one hand. The kamehameha wave is a very versatile one that can be bended or even make move on command like the spirit ball, but not as much as a spirit ball.

As for the non missing arm on the game's version of Future Gohan, it serves two purposes. One, As a Japanese game, it would have obtained a higher age rating (up to or near adult rating) if he was made without his arm. Something about the laws of Japan and showing amputees in media. The second reason is probably because he's a selectable character in dragon ball collecting missions, and we all know all characters use both arms to be able to carry two dragon balls at the same time.

He didn't lose his arm cause of the new violence type of anime rules they have to follow now adays. Think censorship. However, players know he is suppose to have one arm and thus he fires and primarily fights with one arm. Soemtimes you will catch him using two, but it isn't often.

As for the second blast? It's a ki push. They do it all the time in the show. How do you think gohan won against cell in the firstplace?
