Krillin has died many deaths (literally) in Dragon Ball, but fans just can’t get enough of it. Being an ancillary character came with a real disadvantage in the case of Krillin. Every now he died, and every then he was born again, thanks to the dragon balls.
While he might have had some fascinating tricks like the Destructo Disc up his sleeve, they weren’t really helpful in sending the fate some other way. Out of his multiple demises, fans remember this one the most. Maybe that’s why they want to see it again.
Slight spoilers for Dragon Ball ahead:
Dragon Ball Fans Need to Have Mercy on Poor Krillin
It has to be Krillin; maybe that’s why the Dragon Ball character might’ve thought of hiding under the disguise of a fused creature. Well, that was a coincidence we saw in Elden Ring, but that would actually be the best case for Krillin to cheat death.
He never did that. Fans know that, out of all those moments, his demise at the hands of Frieza on Planet Namek remains the most memorable. One fan shared an image showcasing a custom Grail Piece that’ll jog the memories of others.
Can’t wait to revisit this moment in the game

So many Sagas from Dragon Ball are just waiting to be re-told in the Bandai Namco game and the Frieza arc should be among the major ones as it was in the series.
Krillin Appears to be a Major Trigger to Summon a Super Saiyan
Though it was always in his blood, Goku attained the Super Saiyan transformation only when he witnessed Krillin’s demise. Goku stunned the descendant of Chilled with the Spirit Bomb but that only enraged the antagonist.
At first, he tries to use a death beam on Goku but is saved by Piccolo, who jumps in its way. Thankfully, he remains alive but is badly hurt by it. And then Frieza laid her eyes on Krillin.
Frieza simply sends Krillin into the air and explodes his body while Goku watches. That causes him to erupt in rage, becoming the Super Saiyan whom Frieza had only heard of.
It seems like Krillin’s death will be a trigger to Goku’s transformation in the game’s what-if scenarios too. In one of the trailers, we have seen Goku turning into a Super Saiyan against the Great Ape Vegeta. That also means Krillin will be dead before the beginning of Frieza arc.
What other brutal moments do you think will make it into the game? We would like to know your thoughts in the comments section below.
