Tough call...probably Tien...but some food for thought on some of the examples

Krillen went down in one hit from Ricoom whereas Tien took on Burter and Jeice...I think part of the reason for this could be credited to the fact Tien had been training under King Kai before his fight (not sure how much of a diff that makes)
As for Buu saga, hard to tell...Tien kind of goes down in a hit, and Krillen deliberately sacrificed himself to buy the others some time...

Personally, I liked Krillen more but that's just me (really felt sorry for him after hearing what they did to him with GT)

I'd say probably Tien. Yes, I like him more than Krillin, but what really impressed me was his strength and determination against Cell!

Tenshinhan is stronger than Kurinin, technically.

All of these messages about Tenshinhan and Kurinin after the Freezer Saga are opinions, since there are no power levels after the Freezer Saga. And if you mention one reference to power level stating in the dub, I will hit you over the head with a baseball bat.

Everybody (Well, except the stupid dubbies..) know that there are no power levels after the Freezer Saga, and the dub is basically bullshit. All these damn added lines and crap. Here's one added line for you.

"Hey, I'm lookin' mondo cool!"

Based on opinion, Tenshinhan is stronger than Kurinin.

Well, if Krillin had actually received training from King Kai in DBZ, it wouldn't even be a contest. As it stands though, I'd have to go with Tien, unless Krillin got in a lucky hit with his Destructo Disc, (don't know the Japanese name for it, sorry).

I still say Krillin who never stops training, that i know of besides when he is really old, ended up being stronger but since there are no true scouters anymore it is all estimation. I think Krillin is stronger but on the other hand i believe Tien is the better fighter. Making it seem he is stronger. Krillin has the more guts when it comes down to it though.

I never completely agreed with the "fillers" they put in the series. The fight between Tien and the Ginyu forces was never in the manga. Now, the only reason I agree with the manga is that there are not as many inconsistencies with the power levels as in the series. In the show, sometimes characters are made to seem stronger or weaker than they were at that point.
As for Krilin - Tien, I think even though krilin IMO is a better all-around fighter, Tien has the -by far- strongest attack, the one he used to keep cell 2nd, Stage at bay. And almost died in the proces.

Ok, that Dbz post must've been my largest so far. I dunno if that's a good or a bad thing...
