Android 18 (Dragon Ball) is Krillin's wife. She has an extremely confident and even a bit arrogant personality. Please join Hobiverse in uncovering the secret behind this girl's true identity.
Android 18 is not a real robot?
As we know, Android 18 (Dragon Ball) and his younger brother Android 17 were created by Dr. Gero to destroy Songoku. However, in the detail where the Divine Dragon revived her, Android 18 turned back into a human. This detail at first glance is very absurd because the Dragon God only grants one wish and never has "accompanying gifts".

Because of that, it's not like the Divine Dragon just revived her and turned her into a person, but Android 18 (Dragon Ball) was originally human. According to the author's revelation, she and her younger brother were members of a notorious bandit gang. Then both were targeted and kidnapped by Dr. Gero, converting them into robots. That is also the reason why they still retained some reason and resisted Dr. Gero when his and Goku's battle was coming to an end.
Android 18 is inherently human
The power source of Android 18 is almost limitless
Maybe thanks to her robot constitution, Android 18's strength is said to be limitless, so she can stand firm in battles that require long-term physical strength. This also helps readers explain that she can even suppress the Saiyan race - the most aggressive and powerful race on the planet in some duels. Some fans also believe that if Android 18 (Dragon Ball) had trained more rigorously, her abilities would have surpassed those of Goku and Vegeta.

Does Android 18 have water resistance function?
It sounds funny, but actually this is a question that many readers are interested in. Android 18 is a robot, so does she have a water-resistant function to avoid damage like today's phones, watches or other electronics?
Through many chapters, fans also realized that water has no effect on her. However, the truth is that Android 18 (Dragon Ball) is not waterproof at all, she is not affected because she was upgraded from a human body, and no one is afraid of getting water on them, right? ?
Akira Toriyama had no intention of Krillin and Android 18 falling in love
In fact, author Akira Toriyama never thought about the plot of Android 17 and Android 18 appearing in the part about the Xerxes, let alone the story of Android 18 (Dragon Ball) becoming Krillin's beloved wife. The idea of her appearance came about thanks to an editor in charge of Dragon Ball asking Toriyama to change part of the plot. So when Krillin has a wife, it is impossible not to mention the great contributions of this editor.
Android 18 and Krillin's daughter is named after a type of chestnut
Artist Akira Toriyama has a habit of naming characters after certain types of objects. For example, when he created Frieza, he had in mind the refrigerator (Freeze), so he decided that the Emperor's subordinates would be what we find in the refrigerator, that's why we have some names like :
Saiyan = Yasai (Vegetables)
Kakarot (Goku) = Carrots
Vegeta + younger brother Tarble = Vegetable (Vegetable)
Raditz = Radish (Radish)
Of course, Android 18's daughter cannot escape this habit of the author. The baby's name is named after a type of chestnut - Marron.
