Krillin's father, a TV reporter?!

Post by Booney » Thu Apr 22, 2010 3:05 pm

I was watching an episode of the 25th Budoukai and noticed this guy in the crowd with no nose.

I know the character designs are simple in the series and these coincidences aren't that uncommon but I haven't seen much (if any) Krillin look-alikes before.

That bear is probably one of the few animal characters to appear in the Buu saga. (excluding regulars like Oolong and Puar)

After taking a closer look.

The guy on the right could even be a young Mr Brief.
And the bear looks weird, just a fat human with a bear head.
Don't the animal people usually have paw-arms or something?

"Krillin's Father" looks younger than Krillin at that point.

Maybe it's Kuririn's brother.

That's just because of that sassy hat. :P

But yeah, maybe it could be his brother?
I don't know, I just thought it was funny to see a tall full-bearded Krillin in the crowd all of the sudden. :)

That bear is terrifying. Why does it have people arms?

I find it funny that Bulma (Dr Briefs, and Pansy Briefs), Goku (Bardock), Chi Chi (Gyu Mao) and Vegeta (King Vegeta) are the only main characters with parents. With the exception of the people who are born during DBZ (Gohan, Pan, Trunks, Videl, and Goten).

Maybe he doesn't have the right to bear arms!

I guess Toriyama didn't feel it was necessary to introduce Krillin's, Yamcha's, Ten's and Chaozu's parents.
