There's a shiny spot in the middle of his chest that slowly fades. Frieza then controls that energy, lifting Krillin into the air.He THEN manipulates that energy, causing it to burst which results in Krillin exploding from the inside out. He's obviously using the energy that he fired at Krillin to kill him.
– Frieza's version of one of Vegeta's deadly attacks, Dirty Fireworks. Frieza shoots a small energy sphere into the opponent, lifts them up with telekinesis, then detonates the opponent by clenching his fist. He has used this technique to kill Krillin.
Krillin was stabbed multiple times and the passed out due to bloodloss. He was then thrown into a river and drown. The magic of dendes healing had him bring him back before his whole body completely shut down.
What would happen if Frieza killed Gohan instead of Krillin?
Since Gohan had never died before at this point, Goku would know that he can be brought back by the dragon balls. But that would mean the next one to die would still likely be Krillin (Because Frieza wants Goku to Suffer), Making Goku Go Super Saiyan, Possibly even more pissed of than original.
Summary. Krillin's training has made him one of the last Earthling Z Fighters still actively participating in fights. Krillin is more powerful than Frieza and Mecha Frieza, as he was able to prompt Goku to use his Super Saiyan form in a sparring match.
So if gohan was killed by cell under his watch, he would feel very guilty for the decision he made, a part of the guilt would come from the fact that he sent his son to death when he could had helped him, another part of the guilt would come from the fact that he failed his friends and earth by not able to help the ...
Krillin can use these techniques in his level 3 form. Both Goku and Krillin will have their Kaio-ken activated if they are in a team-battle as the last team member standing, and when activated it will drain their HP slowly.
When he is in his second form, it is cut off by Krillin with a Destructo Disc (causing him to threaten to Krillin) though he seemed to partially regrow his tail shortly before he transformed into his Third form.
He is first introduced at age 13, with a shaved head and still dressed in the yellow-and-orange clothing worn at the monastery at which he had been training. He does not possess a visible nose, and has six spots of moxibustion burns on his forehead called jieba, a reference to the practice of Shaolin monks.
His short stature and baldness (with the exception of when he grows out his hair in the Buu Saga onwards, although he occasionally shaves his head in several sagas in Dragon Ball Super) aid him in his ability to provide comic relief during tense moments.
29. Krillin: Killed by Tambourine. After the Tournament, he is killed by Tambourine, who was out to kill all of the greatest martial artists so that King Piccolo would go unchallenged. He is later revived with the Dragon Balls.
Krillin's hyper-powerful Destructo Disc is easily Krillin's most iconic attack for good reason. Krillin has used this technique in numerous battles, and it has proven to be a formidable weapon time and time again.
Like most characters in the series, the name Krillin is a pun. In his case, its Japanese source, Kuririn, is made up of two parts. The first two syllables come from 栗 (kuri), which means "chestnut" in reference to his shaved head (the "chestnut" pun is also carried over to his daughter Marron).
Frieza hadn't learned to sense ki yet, so if Krillin had just blinded him AND THEN thrown the destructo disk, he would have cut Frieza in half much earlier than expected. If this had happened, he would not have died, Planet Namek would not be destroyed, and the universe would be free from the evil tyrant...
Near the end of the Saiyan Saga (I don't remember if it is), it shows Krillin cutting Vegeta's tail off with his Distructo-Disk. This is false in both the Manga and Anime. Yajirobe cuts his tail off with his Katana.
Akira toriyama said when u he created krillin he was so tired that he simple forgot to give him a nose. His concept art went into developement then he realized "oh crap! i forgot his nose!" he said it was too late to change so he just decided to make it permanent.
If the user multiplies their base ki too much, the uprise of ki could easily obliterate them, or severely damage their body, as it did Goku's. After using the Kaio-ken x4 to overpower Vegeta's Galick Gun, Goku's entire body was thrashed, and he could barely move without hurting himself.
"It was mentioned by Old Kai in Dragon Ball Super that using Kaio-ken alongside Super Saiyan is almost impossible or rather lethal because the intense emotional turmoil caused by the Super Saiyan transformation would not allow precise ki control to survive the technique.
If Trunks had died instead of Gohan, it's possible that Gohan would have achieved Super Saiyan 2, would have been able to defeat the Androids, and there would be peace until Buu happened.
From that time on, Goku believed that Grandpa Gohan was killed by a monster and that his soul was in the Four-Star Dragon Ball. In Dragon Ball Z, when Goku was battling Vegeta as he transforms into a Great Ape, Goku finally realizes that he killed Grandpa Gohan when he was little and would apologize to his grandfather.
