The title’s latest gameplay showcase revealed a bunch of different characters, movesets, and locations in the game that are going to hold a lot of importance. Still, there’s a healthy sense of mystery around all the characters we’re likely going to see added to the game later. One of them is Krillin, a charismatic martial artist beloved by the Dragon Ball community.

The response has been positive, stating that Krillin is indeed essential to the game.

One of the comments by user Normal_Mobile_1168 states how the absence of Kid Krillin in recent adaptations has not been ignored by the community:

I’ve been saying this Kid Krillin has been forgotten too long

Based on the source material, Krillin has held an important role as Goku’s friend over the years and is a younger version of himself who’s a charming fighter who adds life to the screen. Watching him arrive as part of the roster would indeed be a moment of fan service for a lot of players.

At the time of writing, quite a few characters and features from the franchise have been revealed to be part of the game. This includes Goku and Vegeta’s different variants and surprising entries like Kakunsa and Dyspo.

Master Roshi and Krillin Might Just Catch up in the Game

Some relationships from the Dragon Ball anime are just too precious to be missed out on.

The latest gameplay showcase revealed Master Roshi to be a part of the narrative, and it would be a disappointing turn of events to not see Krillin make his way to Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero. Canonically, Krillin is one of the strongest humans to exist in the narrative.

The dynamics between Master Roshi, Goku, and Krillin formed a relationship that fans have always kept dear to their hearts. In this, Kid Krillin also played an important part in the original story. Training by Goku’s side is a privilege not many have had in the history of Dragon Ball.

It’s likely we’ll see Krillin enter the game soon, but there’s little evidence to support the hype for his Kid variant to make its way to Sparking Zero. Even though many fans would gladly sell a part of their souls for that.
