List of Deaths in Dragon Ball KD

Saiyan Saga
1. Farmer: Killed by Raditz. He tried to shoot Raditz, but Raditz caught the bullet and flicked it back at him, making the farmer the first person to die in Dragon Ball Z. Ep.1

2. Raditz: Killed by Piccolo. Goku held Raditz in place, and then Piccolo shot him with a Special Beam Cannon, mortally wounding him. Piccolo later finished Raditz off while he was laughing at him. We do not see exactly what Piccolo does to him, but we can assume it isn't a pretty sight, because when Krillin and Bulma take his scouter, Raditz's corpse remains unseen. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi implies that Piccolo killed him by hitting him with his fist or hand. Ep.5

3. Goku: Killed by Piccolo, though he sacrificed himself. He held Raditz in place so he couldn't escape, and Piccolo shot a Special Beam Cannon through both of them. Goku was later revived with the Dragon Balls. Ep.5

4. Greger: Thrown into the Pit by King Moai's soldiers after losing a championship fight to Lesoy. He was then eaten by Yetti, the monster. Ep.11

5. Lesoy: Head destroyed by Vegeta using a finger beam. Ep.11

6. Yetti: Completely destroyed by Nappa using an energy wave. Ep.11

15. Kami: Killed when Piccolo was killed by Nappa. If Piccolo dies, Kami dies, and vice versa. Therefore, when Piccolo was revived with the Dragon Balls, so was Kami. Ep.28

16. Nappa: Killed by Vegeta. Disappointed that Nappa lost a fight to Goku, Vegeta threw him in the air and destroyed him with a powerful energy blast. Ep.29

Namek Saga

20. Cargo: Killed by Dodoria with an energy blast over Moori's shoulder. (Note: In the Ocean dub, Dodoria either seems to forget or not realize that he killed Cargo, as he tells Dende "your brother may have escaped, but not you!" He was later revived with the Dragon Balls. Ep.47

21. Muuri: Neck snapped by Dodoria after Frieza went back on his word to leave the Namek village in peace. He was later revived with the Dragon Balls. Ep.47

22. Dodoria: Killed by Vegeta. The two made a deal that Dodoria tell Vegeta the truth about the destruction of his home planet, but Vegeta didn't keep his end of the bargain. As Dodoria attempted to get back to Frieza, Vegeta shot an energy blast that completely obliterated him in midair. Ep.49

23. Namekian Elder: Killed by Vegeta when Vegeta invaded the only Namek village Frieza hadn't attacked. The Elder tried to stop Vegeta from taking the Dragon Ball, but Vegeta obliterated him with an energy blast. Ep.51

24. Unnamed Frieza Soldier: Killed by Frieza. He returned to Frieza after discovering the hidden village Vegeta attacked, but as he hadn't found out where Vegeta had hidden the Dragon Ball, Frieza killed him with an eye laser, threatening to do the same to Zarbon if he didn't find Vegeta and make him talk.

25. Appule: Killed by Vegeta. Appule was overseeing Vegeta when he was healing in the rejuvenation tank after his injuries from his fight with the transformed Zarbon. Vegeta recovered and broke out of the rejuvenation tank, presumably with an energy blast, and killed Appule as he did so.

26. Zarbon: Killed by Vegeta. Even in his transformed state, Zarbon was no no longer a match for the Saiyan prince the second time around, since Vegeta's power had grown. Vegeta slammed his fist clean through his stomach, shot an energy blast clean through him, and sent him flying into the Namekian sea to a watery grave. Ep.57

27. Blueberry and Raspberry: Both pulled underwater and killed offscreen by the giant crab. Ep.60

28. Guldo: Killed by Vegeta. Guldo had Krillin and Gohan trapped in his Mind Freeze, but Vegeta intervened, cutting off Guldo's head (this scene was edited a bit in the Ocean dub, where Guldo falls to his knees with his head not attached, as opposed to his head rolling off). In both dubs, Guldo was still alive, so Vegeta killed him with an energy blast. His corpse was later seen by Dende, and later Gohan. Ep.63

29. Captain Strong: Either killed by Captain Ginyu when he punched him into the sky (as he was trying out for the Ginyu Force, and was also a captain, and only Ginyu can be a captain on the Ginyu Force), or killed by Vegeta during the Frieza Saga when he arrived at Frieza's ship in search of the Dragon Balls.

30. Oggers: Either killed by Captain Ginyu when he knocked him into the sky (as he didn't have enough style to be on the Ginyu Force) or killed by Vegeta during the Frieza Saga when he arrived at Frieza ship in search of the Dragon Balls.

31. Strock: Either killed by Captain Ginyu when he knocked him into the sky (as he didn't have enough style to be on the Ginyu Force) or killed by Vegeta during the Frieza Saga when he arrived at Frieza ship in search of the Dragon Balls.

32. Goose: Either killed by Captain Ginyu when he knocked him into the sky (as he didn't have enough style to be on the Ginyu Force) or killed by Vegeta during the Frieza Saga when he arrived at Frieza ship in search of the Dragon Balls.

36. Guru: Died of a broken heart because Frieza killed all his sons (the people of Namek). Was later revived with the Dragon Balls. Ep.76

37. Dende: Killed by Frieza. Frieza saw that Dende had the power to heal, so he killed him with a finger beam to eliminate this threat. Was later revived with the Dragon Balls. Ep.84

38. Vegeta: Killed by Frieza. Frieza mercilessly beat him up, and then when Goku came and Vegeta talked about Frieza being beaten by a Saiyan, Frieza killed the Saiyan Prince with a death beam through the chest just to shut him up. Before dying, he told Goku to destroy Frieza, but was later revived with the Dragon Balls. Ep.86

39. Krillin: Killed by Frieza. Frieza lifted him into the air with his mind and blew him up. He was later revived with the Dragon Balls. (Note: This was Krillin's second time dying, as he was killed by Tambourine in Dragon Ball). Ep.95

40. Guru: Died of old age. His body disappeared after death, and he appointed Moori as the next Eldest Namek. Ep.105

Garlic Jr. Saga
41. Bird-like Frieza Soldier: Killed by Vegeta with an energy blast. Vegeta was out exterminating any followers of Frieza while searching for Goku. Ep.107

44. Two unidentified people are killed when they are attacked by animals infected with the Black Water Mist.

44. Vinegar: Killed by Gohan. Gohan was angry that Vinegar beat up Krillin, and that he was about to fall to his death over the edge of the lookout, and Spice and Vinegar were attacking Gohan, so Gohan unleashed his hidden powers and shot two separate energy blasts, destroying both Spice and Vinegar at the same time.

45. Spice: Killed by Gohan. Gohan was angry that Vinegar beat up Krillin, and that he was about to fall to his death over the edge of the lookout, and Spice and Vinegar were attacking Gohan, so Gohan unleashed his hidden powers and shot two separate energy blasts, destroying both Spice and Vinegar at the same time.

Trunks Saga
46. Unnamed Captain: Killed by Frieza, who pierced him with his hand from behind after he retreated from Trunks.

47. Frieza: Killed by Trunks. He chopped him in half with his sword, sliced him to pieces, and shot an energy blast that reduced him to dust in midair.

48. King Cold: Killed by Trunks. He tricked Trunks into giving him his sword, but the sword didn't improve King Cold's chances. Trunks shot an energy blast through his chest, sending him flying into a rock wall, which was now covered with blood. He begged Trunks for his life, but Trunks, knowing how Frieza's family works, destroyed him with an energy blast.

49. Malaka: Presumably killed by Trunks, when Trunks blew up King Cold's ship. (It is also possible that he wasn't killed).

Android Saga
50. Android 19: Killed by Vegeta. 19 attempted to drain Vegeta's energy using the devices on his hands, but Vegeta pulled his hands off and, as 19 attempted to run, blew him up with a Big Bang attack. Only his head remained.

51. Dr. Gero: Killed by Android 17. As the mad scientist (also known as Android 20) tried to stop 17 and 18 from activating Android 16, 17 kicked his head off. The head was still alive, so 17 stomped on it, crushing it.

Note: Furthermore, no other notable people were killed during this Saga, though definitely many people are killed by Androids #19 and #20 in South City, and at least 5 people are unintentionally killed by Vegeta during his fight with Android #18.

Imperfect Cell Saga
52. Cell(present): Killed by Krillin and Trunks using energy waves while he was still in larval form inside his test tube.

Perfect Cell Saga
No named characters die during the Perfect Cell Saga, though several people are killed when Cell blows up some inhabited islands in search of Android 18.

Cell Games Saga
53. Android 16: Body destroyed by Cell using an energy blast, but his head was still alive. 16 was killed when Cell stomped on his head and crushed it - but not before he spoke to Gohan, telling him to fight Cell. He may have been revived with the Dragon balls, but was never seen afterward.

54. The Cell Juniors: All seven of them were killed by Gohan.

55. Goku: Killed when Cell self destructed, after Goku took him to King Kai's planet. He was later revived when Elder Kai gave him his life.

58. Gregory: Killed when Cell self-destructed, after Goku took him to King Kai's planet.

59. Android 17: Killed when Cell self destructed, as he was still inside Cell at the time. Was later revived with the Dragon balls. (Note: The wish was made to revive everyone on Earth who was killed by Cell, and 17 died on King Kai's planet. This can be argued that his being absorbed on Earth affected whether he was considered to have died on Earth, as his absorption led to his death. Also, it is unknown as to why he never appeared on Snake Way with Goku, King Kai, Bubbles, and Gregory).

60. Future Trunks: Killed by Cell with a beam through the chest. Was later revived with the Dragon balls.

61. Cell: Killed by Gohan. Gohan and Cell entered a beam struggle with Kamehamehas, and Cell was about to win when Vegeta hit him with an energy ball, allowing Gohan to overpower Cell, completely destroying him.

Great Saiyaman Saga

No one dies during this saga.

Babidi Saga
65. Spopovich: Killed by Babidi. The evil wizard decided he had no more use of Spopovich so he cast a curse on him causing him to blow up like a balloon, and then explode.

66. Yamu: Killed by Pui Pui. Seeing what happened to Spopovich, Yamu tried to fly away, but Pui Pui, on Babidi's orders, shot Yamu with an energy blast, destroying him completely.

67. Kibito: Killed by Dabura. Dabura shot him in the face with an energy blast, point blank. Was later revived with the Dragon Balls.

68. Pui Pui: Killed by Vegeta. Even on his home planet, Planet Zoon, with ten times Earth's gravity, Vegeta still had the upper hand, and, after a quick beating, vaporized the evil henchman with an energy blast to the chest, point blank.

69. Yakon: Ate too much of Goku's light energy, causing him to get bigger and fatter until he exploded.

Majin Buu Saga
70. Dabura: Killed by Majin Buu. The pink blob turned the king of demons into a gigantic cookie and ate him, thus turning all his victims (that he turned to stone) back to normal. When he turned up in Other World, King Yemma turned him good and sent him to Heaven, as he would have enjoyed Hell too much.

71. Vegeta: Blew himself up in an attempt to destroy Majin Buu. Buu was blown to bits, but came back together. Vegeta, meanwhile, was turned to stone by the force of his attack, and fell to the ground and disintegrated until there wasn't a shred of him left.

72. Marvin: Killed by Babidi. The World Tournament judge gave Babidi the names of who he was seeking (Trunks, Goten, and Piccolo), but Babidi wasn't interested in their names and made his head explode.

73. Babidi: Killed by Majin Buu. Buu decided he had had enough of Babidi's abuse, so he grabbed him by the throat and punched his head off, then destroyed his headless body.

Fusion Saga
74. Van Zant: Killed by Evil Buu. The first thing Evil Buu did when he appeared was to vaporize the deranged gunman with an energy wave.

75. Smitty: Killed by Super Buu. The first major thing Super Buu did after he transformed from Evil Buu was to turn into liquid and go down Smitty's throat, making him get bigger and fatter (more gruesomely than Spopovich or Yakon) until he exploded. (the edited version cuts out most of the details: it shows Buu heading for Smitty's mouth, then Hercule's reaction, then the Buu explosion after it has occurred). This is the most horrible death in Dragon ball Z.

Note: Though most of the movies don't take place in the Dragon Ball Z timeline, Dead Zone is the possible exception.

The World's Strongest

 * Misokatsun: Killed by Goku. Mikokatsun was a big, yellow, marshmallowy fighter so most attacks bounced off him, but Goku used the Kaioken to plow through him, killing him and deflating him as well.
 * Ebifurya: Punched into a wall by Goku, who was using the Kaioken attack.
 * Kishime: Kicked, then slammed on the ground by Goku, who was using the Kaioken attack.

Lord Slug

 * Gyoshu: Killed by Slug. He said it would take 10 days to terra-freeze Earth, so he killed him with a finger beam as well.
 * Wings: Killed by Piccolo. Piccolo broke Wings's arm, then later shot an energy blast at his head, blowing it clean off.
 * Medamatcha: Killed by Goku. As Medamatcha moved in to kill Goku, Goku punched him into the air, then punched him again as he fell.
 * Angila: Killed by Goku. Angila shot a breath blast at Goku, but Goku hit it back at him, causing him to swallow it.
 * Kakuja: Killed when Goku used the Kaioken to plow through Slug, causing him to fall onto his ship, and the ship exploded, killing everyone inside, including Kakuja.
 * Lord Slug: Killed by Goku. As Slug came back to attack Goku once more, Goku gathered energy from the sun and threw a Spirit Bomb at Slug, knocking him into the terra freeze machine and destroying them both.

Cooler's Revenge

 * Doore: Killed by Piccolo. As Gohan left to take the Senzu Beans to Goku, Doore chased after him, so Piccolo shot an energy blast at Doore that followed him around. Doore eventually tried to block it, but was unable to, and was destroyed.
 * Neiz: Killed by Piccolo. Neiz electrocuted Piccolo, but Piccolo, while electrified, grabbed onto Neiz's head, electrocuting him and killing him.
 * Cooler: His own gigantic energy ball (dubbed Supernova in the games) was hit back at him by Goku with a Kamehameha, sending him crashing into the sun where he was incinerated. He was later revived by the Big Gete Star when his brain was absorbed by it.
 * Salza: Killed by Piccolo. Salza was about to kill Goku and the others, weakened from battle, when Piccolo shot a Special Beam Cannon through him, killing him.

Return of Cooler

 * Cooler/Big Gete Star: Killed by Vegeta. Cooler, now the core of the Big Gete Star, and almost entirely made of wire, attacked Goku, but Vegeta sliced off his arm with an energy disc, and Goku shot Cooler with a small energy ball, blowing him up and destroying both Cooler and the Big Gete Star for good. To prevent the Big Gete Star or Cooler from reappearing, Vegeta crushed the chip that the Big Gete Star started out as.

Super Android 13

 * Android 15: Head cut off by Vegeta, causing him to explode.
 * Android 14: Chopped in half by Trunks with his sword, causing him to explode.
 * Android 13: Killed by Goku. Goku absorbed the energy of his Spirit Bomb (partially because he can't contain the Spirit Bomb if he tried to throw it as a Super Saiyan, but it's also because 13 knew all about the Spirit Bomb, and it wouldn't have worked on him) and punched a hole in 13, and the energy around Goku disintegrated him, saying "Goku must die!"

Broly: The Legendary Super Saiyan

 * Moah: Killed by Paragus with an energy wave. He had previously expressed concern about the comet heading for New Vegeta (which would eventually destroy it).
 * Paragus: Killed by Broly. Paragus attempted to leave his son behind to die on the planet, and escape in an escape pod. Broly, however, got to Paragus and picked up his pod and crushed it, then threw it into the comet heading for New Vegeta.
 * Krang: Presumably killed when the comet hit New Vegeta, as Paragus' scientist was not seen among the Z Fighters and alien slaves on Piccolo's ship. It is also likely that he was killed before then, when Broly sent energy waves in all directions, destroying Paragus' soldiers and spaceship.

Bojack Unbound

 * The Intergalactic Fighters: Killed by Bido, Bujin, Zangya, and Kogu.
 * Doskoi: Killed by Bido. Doskoi's Battle Zone was a desert (possibly because of Bido) and Bido came out of the sand and choked him to death.
 * Kogu: Killed by Trunks. Trunks broke his sword and impaled him with his hand, killing him even though Kogu was in his transformed state.
 * Bido: Punched in half by Super Saiyan 2 Gohan, causing him to explode, Cell Junior style.
 * Bujin: Kicked in half by Gohan, causing him to explode, Cell Junior style.
 * Zangya: Killed by Bojack. In an attempt to distract Gohan, Bojack snuck behind Zangya, pushed her in front of him, and shot an energy ball through her at Gohan, killing Zangya instantly.
 * Bojack: Killed by Gohan. After Gohan impaled Bojack with his hand, the two shot energy beams at each other (Gohan's was a Super Kamehameha, while Bojack's was a Galactic Buster). They ran at each other through their beams, and in this final attack, Bojack was killed, completely disintegrated inside the explosion.

Broly: Second Coming

 * The monster: The dinosaur that terrorized the village was defeated by Goten and Trunks, then cooked and eaten by the villagers.
 * Broly: Hit into the sun by a triple Kamehameha from Goku, Gohan, and Goten. This presumably killed Broly (though he was also thought to have died in the previous movie, which was proven false). Although Broly isn't seen again, Lord Jaguar made a clone of him.

Bio-Broly

 * Jaguar's dog: As it attempted to bite Bio-Broly, it ran into the acidic culture fluid, and was killed when it ate him.
 * Maloja: Killed by the culture fluid. It went into a room where he was attempting to steal some of Jaguar's money, and when he saw it he tried to cast a spell on it, but had no effect, and was consumed by it.
 * Bio-Broly: Consumed by the culture fluid (in a scene mirroring Gohan getting Broly to fall into lava in the previous movie) but this only made him bigger. However, as he was merged with the culture fluid, he turned to stone because of the sea water. Goten and Trunks finished him off with a Kamehameha.

Fusion Reborn

 * Mini Janempas: Killed with a series of punches and kicks from Goku.
 * Frieza: Killed by Gohan. Gohan punched him in the stomach, causing him to explode, and causing all his henchmen (and many henchmen from the previous movies) to run off.
 * Janemba: Killed by Gogeta, the fusion of Goku and Vegeta. Gogeta shot an energy ball of glittering dust (dubbed in the games as Stardust Breaker) through Janemba's chest, disintegrating him and freeing the teenage ogre from his control.
 * The Dictator: Killed along with the rest of his army by Gotenks using the Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack.

Wrath of the Dragon

 * Minotia: Stomped on by Hirudegarn.
 * Hoy: Stomped on by Hirudegarn, mirroring Babidi's death at the hands of Majin Buu.
 * Hirudegarn: Killed by Goku. Goku did his Dragon Fist Attack, and the dragon stabbed through Hirudegarn and wrapped around him, and then exploded, destroying the evil monster once and for all.

Bardock The Father Of Goku

 * Bardock: killed by Frieza
 * Bardock's crew: (Fasha, Borgos, Tora, and Shugesh) all executed by Dodoria's elites.
 * Everyone on planet Vegeta: executed by Frieza's death ball
