Kuririn Kuririn (クリリン), or Krillin in the English anime, the English video games, and the English trading card games, is a fictional character in the manga Dragon Ball/Dragon Ball Z, and the Anime Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, and Dragon Ball GT. He is the short friend of Son Goku, and is the student of Muten-Rôshi (Master Roshi) in his first appearance in the anime and manga. He is often used as comic relief or cannon fodder by the writers, and has been killed several times in the series. Although amazingly strong, he is quickly outclassed by many of the other characters but is still fairly brave and resourceful, and the audience identifies with him as an underdog since he is goodhearted, sweet, but rather shy. He also has a huge ego. He's widely believed to be the strongest full-blooded, non-mystically enhanced human in the series, which is partly confirmed by Yamcha during a conversation with Marron during the Buu Saga. In the anime, Kuririn seems to have poor luck with maintaining romantic relationships. He eventually marries the unusual but lovely Artificial Human 18 ('Android 18') after striking up an unusual relationship. They later have a daughter named Marron. Despite popular fan belief, Kuririn is not bald. It's assumed, due to his training philosophy as a monk, he merely shaves his head. After settling down with his new family, his hair grows out, although his original smoothcrowned look is the most familiar to fans. Special Abilities Double Tsuihikidan Kuririn shoots an energy beam out of each hand and guides them towards his opponent. Kakusandan Kuririn fires two beams, one from each hand, and merges them. He then directs the beam above his opponents where it breaks up and rains down on them. Kamehameha A powerful energy wave, Kuririn is able to use it in its basic form. >' Kuririn's most powerful attack, the Kienzan is a razor sharp disk of energy that can slice through nearly any opponent. Its main drawback is its lack of accuracy. Krillin can create and fire several of these discs at once. This attack is called Destructo Disk in the English series. Taiyô-ken Kuririn creates a brilliant flash of light that temporarily blinds and stuns those in close proximity. Zanzo-ken Kuririn moves very quickly over a short distance, so fast that it leaves an after-image of where he was. It's almost like a mini-teleport.
