Destructo Disk

How is Krillin able to damage Nappa and Frieza with this technique? It's a very good technique but the power gaps between Krillin and Nappa/ Frieza were considerably high. Both outclassed him and yet he was almost able to take off Nappa's head and cut off Frieza's tail

I haven't read the manga, but there appears to be some inconsistencies regarding the effect of destructo disk in the anime (in that the times it was used and landed a direct hit with little effect did not occur in the manga, it was just filler). the technique is supposed to be able to cut through anything regardless of power gaps.

I don't have a problem with hurting Nappa but the whole Frieza thing just shouldn't have been able to occur. It's probably like a sword edge vs a baseball bat. The thinner surface makes it easier to cut through things.

It can basically cut through anything maybe, or at least cut way above the user's power level. In the manga the destructo disc/kienzan never failed to cut through anything, so it's unknown if it can be stopped.

the kienzan is able to cut absolutely anything it touches. theoretically, even a katchin block wouldn't be able to stand against saiyan saga krillin's kienzan. the only defenses against a kienzan are to outrun it or dodge it. neither are particularly difficult, though, since it's a slow, noisy technique.
list of canon sources:

the DB manga, and the Dr. Slump manga as it applies to the crossover during the rra saga.

list of non canon sources:

everything else, regardless of origin, format, or quality.

What about when Perfect Cell and SSJ2 Gohan were immune to the attack?
Perfect Cell- Krillin's attack didn't phase him
SSJ2 Gohan - Caught Cell's attack

I'm presuming then that these two events only occurred in the anime?

Yep, only in filler. The last time it was used in the Manga was against 2nd form Freeza.

actually, the last time it was used in the manga was against buutenks by goku. the kienzan was a generic attack that at least 5 people knew how to do.

krillin, vegeta, frieza, cell, and goku.

manga wise it cut through Freeza but it should have a limit...people saying it does not have limit is pretty stupid. That's like saying Final Flash has no limit since the only time it was fired Final Flash ripped through it's opponent..and the gap between Vegeta and Cell there was huge.

That's a little different. The Kienzan is stated to cut through anything (maybe not in the manga itself, but in guidebooks), while the Final Flash was never touted to do be able to do so.

Well Guidebooks aren't canon. Anime filler should be taken as equal authority to them IMO.

no. anime is nowhere near as reliable as guidebooks. you are right, guidebooks aren't canon, but kienzan has also never failed to cut in canon. the gap between vegeta and cell was much smaller than the gap between krillin and frieza, btw. krillin was, at best, maybe 1/3 of frieza's power, while vegeta was over 1/2 of cell's power.

still, krillin's kienzan cut nappa, who was ~4x stronger than krillin. it cut frieza, who was ~3x stronger than krillin. ssj3 goku's kienzan cut buutenks, who was ~40x stronger than goku. there may be a limit to the attack, but that limit never came up in the series.

Neither are reliable totally but neither are canon and both should be ignored. But if anyone brings up Guidbooks I can bring up filler.

That's your opinion...my equal authoritative opinion has Cell nearly 4x Vegeta there.

Yajirobe is weaker than a Saibaman and his Sword can cut through Oozaru Vegeta..that's a bigger feat than anything Kienzan ever did. So Yaji's Sword can cut Super Vegetto you think? It has no limits? Mehh

Also I wouldn't take much feats on Buu seriously...Machine gun bullets pierced him and that's something Kid Goku tanked.

No way dude, Yaji is like 1/100th or less than Vegeta there.

Krillin should be at minimum like 1/25th 2nd form Freeza.

Anyway, both were kinda by surprise which Is why I see either of them even cutting their opponents.
