Meanings and usage

verb: to boom; to explode; to blast, to rumble
轟

This character is both an onomatopoeia ('bang, boom') and a verb ('to explode/rumble/shoo away'); classified as verb since that's the more productive standalone use, but the onomatopoeic/interjection reading is equally plausible.
