A humorous human from Earth, first seen in the DB series. He wasn't born bald, but he bacame a Chinese monk, and shaved his hair off for religous reasons. He usually wears a orange training suit, with bluish/black boots. In the Freezer Saga he does wear the Saiyajin armor, along with Son Gohan and Vejita. Kuririn and son Gokou were best friends since back in the beginning, and they were both trained by Kamesennin (amazingly both of them managed to not be perverts, hanging out with a dirty old man and an attractive woman (Lunch)). Kuririn and Gokou were both very strong at a young age, strong enough to both get pretty far in their first Tenkaichi Bodukai.

Kuririn's first "major" help on a "major" fight was back in the Saiyajin Saga, when he fought against Vejita and Nappa. He was severly beaten and bruised in this fight, but he was lucky to survive (unlike Piccolo, Tienshinhan, Choasu, and Yamucha). Kuririn then fought in the Freezer Saga on Nameksei. He was implaed by one of Freeze'rs horns, healed, and then later killed by Freezer, which angered his best friend Gokou so much that he tranformed into a Super Saiyajin!

Kuririn was later revived after Son Gokou defeated Freezer. After that Kuririn did not have a major role in the next fights to come. He didn't fight against the Jinzoigen nor Cell (although he did launch a near suicidal attack on semi-perfect Cell which lasted a few whole few seconds...), however, Juuhachigou did give him a little luck kiss after he watched his friends get beaten by Juunanagou and he didn't dare to interfere. Then Kuririn's hormones kicked in and he got a crush on her.

After Cell was destroyed, Kuririn attempted to wish for Shenron to make Juuhachigou and Juunanagou human again, however, that failed, so he had the self destruct units inside them deactivated out of love. Juuhachigou, unforetunately, witnessed the wishing and verbally abused Kuririn and flew away. 7 years later, they are married and have a daughter named Marron. Plus Kuririn stopped shaving his head since he gave up his monk-ish ways and got hitched. He also gave up fighting since he wanted to concentrate on being a husband and father (not to mention Earth had Gohan and Vejita to protect it, a mere human can't compete with that.).
