Over the years, Krillin has attained a reputation for being the most powerful Earthling in the entire Dragon Ball franchise. Indeed, while he does not hold a candle to the various Saiyan characters within the series, Krillin has made major strides in his training—so much so that Krillin is essentially one of the last Earthling Z Fighter to still actively participate in fights, with other contemporaries such as Roshi, Tien, and Yamcha being largely sidelined. With that in mind, it is very easy to see why he’d be considered the most powerful Earthling character in Dragon Ball’s immense cast. But how does this claim hold up when regarding the actual evidence presented within the various Dragon Ball manga and anime series?There was a time during the early parts of Dragon Ball Z when Frieza, the emperor of Universe 7, was the most terrifyingly powerful character the franchise had ever conceived. With but the lifting of a finger, Frieza was able to not only destroy planets but the vast majority of the incredibly powerful Saiyan race. Those Saiyans who survived did so not because they were stronger than Frieza (at least not at the time) but because they were extremely lucky enough to have not been on their home planet when Frieza reduced it to ash.While Krillin didn’t push Goku to go anywhere near his limit, not only was the Super Saiyan form capable of beating Frieza and Mecha Frieza in Dragon Ball Z, Goku’s Super Saiyan form as of that point in Dragon Ball Super was significantly more powerful than what was required to beat Frieza previously. Despite ultimately losing to Goku in that sparring match, that display of power showed Krillin was comparable to a planet-ending threat, and potentially more powerful than future Dragon Ball Z threats—except the likes of perhaps Perfect Cell and Majin Buu. This definitely stacks Krillin high in the power scaling of Dragon Ball, but where does he rank among his contemporaries among the Z Fighters?
