Krillin's official height is 5 feet tall. By the way, Vegeta's official height is 5'4.5", Goku's is 5'9", and Piccolo's official height is 7'5".

Edit: edited to be right.

Bullshit.

Gohan outgrew Krillin at the age of 11.

According to the official heights, Muten Roshi, Yajirobe, and Bulma are all taller than Vegeta by one centimeter.

Edited to add Bulma in.

There is literally no way Yajirobe is taller than Vegeta.

It's because Toriyama gave their heights in feet and inches despite clearly not understanding those measurements.

To be fair, Goku never does hug him back in those pictures.

Its not even a joke either, he really doesn't hug Gohan back when they thought they'd never see each other again.

Goku's a friendly guy but he's never been one for displays of affection like that. I think he hugged his grandpa after finding out he was fighting him in that tournament or whatever but that's basically it, isn't it? Maybe Goten?

He's a wild child who spent his formative years adventuring around the world seeking new masters and punching dudes in the face. Physical affection wasn't part of his upbringing after Grandpa Gohan died.

Casuals.

The official heights for the DB characters are absolute bullshit and seriously off.

Bulma, Chichi and Videl are presumably of average or close to average height, this is supported by the fact that most women in the DB world seem to hover around that height.

Goku and Gohan are both at least two heads taller than any of them, possibly three. Goku and Gohan are both freaking huge, Piccolo's even taller, Raditz is even bigger than him, and there's no way in hell Nappa isn't at least two and a half, possibly three meters tall.

Vegeta, considered a midget by Saiyan standards, is about on par with an average Earth woman.

Goku's shorter than Mr. Hercule Satan who is shown to be only slightly taller than average.

Oh god. Those horrid scans.

They only look horrid because for some reason paint increased the size beyond what it should be. When viewed at the proper size, they're good. Also they're Viz' translation. Well, part of that is Boo arc art being a bit sloppy.

I'm planning to use them in my blog if I can revive it.

Oh. I thought it was the horrid fan scanlation that looks like crap and is rather poorly translated.

Nah. This is the best I could find in Viz' translation. I have HQ Kanzenban raws, and I could get incomplete HQ Kanzenban fanslations, but I'd rather go with an official source and cite Herms on important points.

You mean 18 is a pretty girl.

Though yeah, the lack of perversion does make her look better.

Plus she blackmailed Satan. He kinda deserves it.

Also, still binging on Super to catch up. Just did episode 15.....

Satan defeats God. You heard it hear first.

You know, I alternate between finding Mr. Satan hilarious, and wanting to kick his ass

Roshi has neither style nor grace.

He even has a bit of a funny face.
