Though he dies so many times, Kuririn actually has a greater amount of times when he almost dies. These near death incidences are, unfortunately, a very common occurrence. I have made a list of some of the ones were he came the closest.
Guldo
Using his time binding technique, Guldo manages to freeze both Gohon and Kuririn. After beating their faces around for a while, the short green alien decides to finish the two off. He then strips of the branches from a nearby tree and uses it as a skewer to impale Kuririn. It would have killed him too, but Vejiita intervenes at the last second.
Freezer form two
Perhaps the worse of them all, this is also probably the closet to death that Kuririn comes. Changing into his second form, Freezer causes Kuririn and the others to take to the air. Holding Dende protectively in his arms, Kuririn make an excellent target for the smirking, bloodthirsty changeling. He races toward the pair, and Kuririn barely has time to push the small boy in his arms out of the way before he is impaled on the end of one of Freezer’s horns. The monster brutally tortures him for a while longer until he blacks out from blood loss.
Perfect Cell
When Juuhachigou is absorbed by Cell, Kuririn is enraged and filled with grief. As a result, he loses his head and makes a vain attempt to fight the creature. As a result, he is the first to suffer at the hands of Perfect Cell, who kicks him across the landscape, crushing every bone in his body. Trunks rushes to save him, though at first he wasn’t breathing… This might tie with Freezer’s attack in closeness to death.
Of course there are a lot more that I could add, but it would take me all day to write them out. Poor Kuririn will always be abused. Sigh. |
