So didn't Ginyu die for good when Buu blew up the Earth?

[precita]

I was just thinking about this. Ginyu lived on Earth as a frog and never died until Buu blew up the Earth. Yet when they brought everyone back to life, only the "good" people were revived by Buu. So wouldn't Captain Ginyu stay dead?

There's no proof that Ginyu was sent to Earth. As far as we know, he died on Namek.

In the anime at least they show Ginyu frog on Earth. He's shown in Capsule corp while the Nameks are staying there. He's also on Yamcha's head when he gets wished back.

That's filler content though. In the manga, the last we see of either state of Ginyu (the frog in Ginyu's body, and Ginyu in the frog's), was on Namek, so there's nothing shown suggesting he had survived that. Essentially it'd come down to whether or not Polunga considered him, in his frog state, as an individual when he granted Dende's wish to send everyone to Earth but Goku and Freeza. We don't see signs of any other Namekian wildlife being teleported there, so it seems that Polunga's wish was confined to "humanoid" life, or at least sentient life.

Ginyu's soul was in that frog, and as far as I can tell, he was sentient and could still process thoughts.

So yes, I believe Ginyu was transported to Earth. As for whether Ginyu died for good when Buu blew up the Earth, maybe. I don't like to think so because I'm a biased Ginyu fan, though. At that point, he was probably about as evil as Pilaf too.

The average lifespan of a frog is only around a decade so he probably died before the Buu arc even began.

This was a space frog!

Doesn't save him from being squashed.

[DBZGTKOSDH]

In the manga, we don't see any animals from Namek on Earth, so he presumably died on Namek as a frog.

In the anime, we see that he was transfered to Earth, and ended up at Dr. Brief's collection of animals. In GT, he is already dead, as he escaped along with the other villains from Hell, and he even got his previous body back, somehow.

[Hellspawn28]

In the manga, it's possible that he could have died when Freeza blew up Namek or was teleported to Earth then died when Kid Buu blew up the Earth. The scenes of Ginyu as a frog where filler. I remember in GT, we saw a namek frog on Enma's desk. So in GT, the frog is still inside Ginyu's body while Enma probably kept Ginyu frog as a pet after death.

[precita]

Did we see Captain Ginyu in GT? I haven't watched GT in like 10 years so I have no memory of this.

[caejones]

I was always under the impression that the frog in the "Gohan's Birthday" filler episode was Ginyu, exhausted after his lengthy search for Goku's house.

I suppose the question comes down to: was Ginyu an evil frog? The Filler that showed him at Capsule Corp made it seem like he was trying to take over that little ecosystem, after all.

[Sandubadear]

I remember Ginyu is quickly shown in GT when the villains are in line for Enma's judgement, but I don't remember the frog.
