From my amateur experience Krita is really nice for drawing, painting and sketching, especially if you have a graphic tablet, as it bundles commonly used features and makes them easily accessible.
But it is by far not a sophisticated image manipulation program such as GIMP, which comes with a plethora of more features you'll probably not use if you're just doing some "typical Krita stuff".
I found I could get Krita to work well with my Wacom tablet easily while Gimp was a mess for it and I never did figure that out... So I used Krita when I needed to draw, but for most everything else I found Gimp easier to get things done
I think the better use is create with Krita, retouch with GIMP.
