Kraglin Obfonteri is a character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), portrayed by actor Sean Gunn. Based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name, he is introduced in Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) as a member of Yondu Udonta's crew of space pirates known as the Ravagers. Kraglin serves as Yondu's right-hand man and is characterized by his loyalty to the Ravagers and his often comedic demeanor.

In Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017), Kraglin plays a more prominent role as he struggles with Yondu's leadership following the return of Peter Quill (Star-Lord) and the introduction of new characters. He faces a moral dilemma about Yondu's methods, which ultimately leads to his growth throughout the movie.

Kraglin is known for wielding Yondu's signature weapon, the Yaka Arrow, which he learns to control as he becomes more involved in the Ravagers' adventures. His character also provides comedic relief in various situations throughout the movies.

Sean Gunn's portrayal lends both depth and humor to Kraglin, making him a memorable part of the Guardians' narrative. Additionally, Kraglin has appeared in the Disney+ special The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special (2022), further expanding his role in the MCU.

Kraglin's journey highlights themes of loyalty, redemption, and the struggle between loyalty to one's chosen family versus the morality of their actions, which are prevalent throughout the Guardians of the Galaxy series.
