Who was saving who now?
And Yamcha was way more simped out than Krillin was in Dragonball. Yamcha couldn't even look at a female without freezing up on some

status nonsense.
Dude got straight up embarrassed at EVERY tournament, while Krillin was actually giving Roshi, Goku, and even Piccolo jr. that work
Krillin's the reason Yamcha pulled off his only W in the whole series, by pulling down Bulma's shirt
On subject, I don't condone Krillin's simping, though I can see where he's coming from. What always bugged me the most is that Krillin is probably the only character most people actually call out for messing up in the Android/Cell saga
...when Vegeta could have murked Imperfect Cell right there on the spot but tried to show up Goku
...when Gohan could have thrown perfect Cell in the bushes right there but decided to torture him instead, which ultimately got Goku and Trunks murked
...when Goku could have teleported in, grabbed King Kai, and escaped before Cell self-destructed instead of taking 20 years to say his goodbyes
Pretty much all of the Z fighters were Eli Porter status in the Cell saga, but we're still this quick to hate on anyone who's not a saiyan?
