Mr Lakiro At least piccolo’s character development wasn’t fucking diverted. This is why I never take vegeta fans seriously. His character just did a 180 and threw away all that development. It’s legit why I think piccolo has better character development than vegeta.

Piccolo is the smartest of the group, he should have a strategist role, and should merge with shen-long, and on that note, yamcha should be the trickster. Best way to make all these character relevent again, is to make an anti-saiyan race and fighting style, something malleable like Hamon from Jojo. Gohan would also be benefited as he would be able to use both styles

+Spandan Dasgupta I agree with Piccolo, but if Piccolo would remained side stepped, I would have hoped a non-ultimate Gohan would have taken that roll, by being schooled by the strategist fighter himself, with some real life experiences to give some interesting twists in his fighting style. Nobody ever combined the martial arts of (real) Chi with some real scientific principles in DB so far. To bad super couldn't do anything else than bring back plot-device-strong Gohan. I don't agree with your solution for Yamcha though, while Yamcha was always a good kid at hearth, and it remained unclear (so far I know) where he learned his Wolf Fang Fist, I wouldn't really call him inventive. Not at all on the level kid and teen Goku where. Come on, Goku was able to out trick a seasoned fighter like Jackie Chun, and might even be able to out-trick his own Master Roshi if ever pitted against him.

I don't agree Tri-beam is an instant attack, it certainly wasn't in DB: Goku was caught mid-air before having learned flight, and the 2nd try he let it happen just to rub it into Tien's mind that Goku would be the superior fighter this time around. If I remember the Saiyan saga correctly it caught Nappa off-guard, and I think it was the same for Cell. I don't know how and why Tri-beam was that effective against Cell, but both Goku and Nappa had no real problems at all to just take it. In the end, Tri-beam (again) almost killed Tien, while it still was only an inconvenience for Semi-perfect Cell, effectively countered by Cell by just waiting out till Tien would have killed himself (for the 2nd time).

I WANT old characters to be relevant, and I absolutely despite the power creeping and artificial nonsense that is power scaling in dragon ball, so I want characters to become relevant again even if they're not that strong (in terms of artificial numbers) by being smarter and coming up with interesting ways to fight. Super completely fucked everything by just giving everyone higher numbers for no reason rather than have them find ways to be useful outside of that, but I did at least enjoy seeing Roshi being useful again for once, and Piccollo performing somewhat decently for someone whose power level got creeped this bad.

That was clearly shown when Goku wanted Gohan to take his role as Earth's defender. Of course Goku did leave him for many years but most army men do that too. They have to be on duty for 6-8 months usually and during wartimes more than a year. But becoz of the hardships that experience lead their child a more successful life.

I find your analysis very well-thought and accurate. Specially, when you mentioned how Piccolo was an stoic antihero while Vegeta, as a brash one, was much more charismatic. That made me think that during the Tenkaichi tournament, Piccolo actually WAS like that! He boasted and defied and laughed in his foes' faces. Even during the beginning of the Saiyan saga, specially against Raditz, he was like that. Then Gohan appeared, and he learned to care, but couldn't express such feelings, and became more and more stoic. Also, at that moment he started being more strategical, as you mentioned, which makes sense as he now would have to fight taking Gohan into account. Now I kinda want to write a Piccolo fanfic...

Tenshinhan was the first serious member of the team, until he was replaced by Piccolo. And then Piccolo was gradually replaced by Vegeta as the serious fighter.

Vegeta’s development in character is still questionable even though yes he did sacrifice himself just so he can save the others but like there wasn’t a specific moment where all the events lead up to him changing and become a good guy as compared to piccolo. Piccolo’ character development and arc was fulfilled with him not following the path of his father King Piccolo and fighting for what’s right. At the end of the day, piccolo deserves way better and has done more in the Dragonball series than Vegeta has

What makes Vegeta so special is that he helps Goku connect more closer to his race with a sense of curiosity and pride. Vegeta is also kinda like a family member to Goku in that they are the last genetic reminders of their kind.

@omarelsayed7577

Exactly. It gets me so angry how any character who isn't a saiyan is just a side character and can't keep up with Goku and Vegeta. Like Piccolo trained for three years to be as strong as Goku who trained for his whole life, and then later on he became useless because he can't keep up just because he's not a saiyan? Vegeta even said that Namekians were very strong during the saiyan saga, and even nail was stronger than vegeta during the Namek arc. Yet, Piccolo just ends up falling far behind Goku and Vegeta just like Yamcha and other humans. Speaking of humans, Krillin and Tien are stronger than 99% of saiyans that ever lived, yet Goku and Vegeta surpass them countless times over because they're saiyans. How does that even make any sense? Saiyan biology is such a stupid and broken thing in Dragon Ball.

And when you think about it, very ironically, this also might be enough to explain why Piccolo is the only character in the entire series that almost never get a new outfit...that's right : Toriyama loved so much to draw Piccolo, that he basically never changed his outfit from the beginning, unlike all the other main characters ! And just to push it further beyond, Piccolo is a clothing master. Just look at his clothes beam, he's the big green threads. He's the only character that always keeps the same clothes, but he's the one that gives new clothes for his partners...oh Toriyama, you funny genius sneaky smart guy !

But almost immediately he becomes too weak to help at all and eventually ends up being placed in the same category as Yamcha despite being so much stronger. He doesn't even get a power up boost like Piccolo does when fusing with Nail or Kami. He is forever forced into the sidelines. At least Piccolo gets to pretend to help. At least he has a meaningful connection to the main cast and can contribute that way. Tien gets nothing.

Piccolo before: i am the son and reincarnation of an alien demon king who had layed waste to the human race for hundreds of years Piccolo now: *DODGE!*

Piccolo's underwhelming fusion with Kami is probably the moment it became clear that he'd never close the gap, at least in Z. They basically just used him as a way to stall the Androids for a bit and then show how much more powerful Cell had gotten. As for the wasted potential for Kami's character and the great moments we could have had reflecting how huge them (re!)fusing is, it goes without saying that it's disappointing. If Piccolo not transforming often enough to sell new toys was a problem, why did Toriyama not have Piccolo change physically when he fused with Nail and Kami? He could've easily gotten a new outfit at least, if not changed colour or something. Perhaps Piccolo's fatal flaw is that he's bald and thus can't update his appearance by getting a new do?

He protected the Z gang during the Vegeta and Frieza arcs for as long as he could. During the Android saga he fused with Nail and had one of the best fights in DB history against 17. Lastly in the Buu Saga he bought enough time for Goten and Trunks to master the fusion dance and wipe out Buu. With all that said, Goku Wins.

I've never seen One Piece but I agree - the video author almost seems to think the characters are real and that Piccolo is unlucky and finds himself in unfortunate situation after unfortunate situation. In fact, it's because of the simplistic writing post-Cell saga, or perhaps earlier; there doesn't have to be one 'sideman' like the video insists. Goku is the main character and will always typically be the one who saves the day, but there used to be a genuine sense that the other characters played a huge part in helping him, or had their own part to play in defeating other villains. I liked the video but I think it's mostly nonsense: overly simplistic, one-dimensional writing has taken over DB and it's worse for it, though the latest Broly movie was an improvement since it showed that Goku needs Vegeta at least (to fuse in order to gain the power to defeat the antagonist).

Here's how we fix Piccolo going forward. Toei, if you see this you can have it and send it along to Toyotaro too. Picollo spends three days in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. He comes out with divine ki. When Vegeta invariably questions how Piccolo simply says "There was a time when one third of me was the god of this world, and another third was it's demon king." And then Goku, Vegeta, and Piccolo can become a power trio (Goku as the Kirk, Vegeta as the Bones, Piccolo as the Spock).

i think the power gap is a biiiiit too big between piccolo and god ki, so i wouldnt see it happen for only three days of the hyperbolic time chamber.

I think they should have kept Piccolo as a teacher. I liked the mentorship he gave to Gohan, Goten and Trunks. I wished in Super he was still teaching Goten and Trunks. I will always enjoy Piccolo.

@@dragonofthewhiteflame4987 The Namkeians of universe 6 did that because they thought they were going to end, which ended up happening, so be it. However, both times Piccolo did it as a last resort and didn't want to do it. With Nail he was surprised on what was going on. Also Piccolo wants to train and use his own strength instead of just absorbing his people, who he appears to care about.

I feel like Piccolo is underrated. He's Gohan's trainer and Pan's babysitter nowadays. He needs a push.

Yamcha is easily the most underrated. He didn't even go to the TOP. Master Roshi went to the TOP! The 300+ Year old man that had a power level lower than Gohan when he was 6. Yamcha wasn't even that low at the end of Saiyan saga. Z straight up murdered him as a character. Super didn't even bury his grave, they took apart his limbs and fed him to a bunch of rats before gathering them up, burning them, and tossing them into the ocean.

@@decepticonxhunter4850 Yeah, because of insane powerboost that nearly fighter except Yamcha and Chiatzou got. Master Roshi before Super hasn't been in a fight since he lost to Tien and his power level was barely above Chi Chi's at that time. Even Buff Roshi wasn't too much stronger than Piccolo at the beginning of Z. Yamcha did more training and ended up several times stronger than Roshi in Z. It's not even like Roshi is more skilled than Yamcha is either. He learned the Kamehameha almost just as easily as Goku and Krillin did and his spirit ball is arguably one of the mosr underused useful attacks alongside the Kikoho and Destructo disk. Roshi had literally no reason to get into the TOP besides a power boost that made him literally millions of times stronger than he was for no reason

I really loved those 10 seconds during the Android saga where Piccolo was the strongest Z Fighter. It also bothered me that Piccolo had to resort to the Special Beam Cannon against Frost in the 6v7 Tournament. I see Frost as being roughly equal in strength to Namek Saga Frieza, and Piccolo in Super should be light years ahead of that level of strength. Even in the Android Saga he should have been able to win a straight fight. I know they wanted to give him a moment of being the the genius tactician, but they could have done it in a way where Piccolo didn't have to admit he was much weaker than his opponent.

So these DBZ videos are slowly getting back, right? #hellyeah

It really is a shame. Piccolo was always my favorite character. My very first contact wth Dragon Ball was the tournament when him and Goku fought. I miss those days.

well you see... he's not Goku… and Toriyama eventually stop caring about any other character that is not Goku. good video as always

You can say he didn't care at any point in the series. Objectively speaking Tenshinhan, Yamcha, and Piccolo could have stayed dead after the Saiyan saga and nothing would change, they did nothing afterwards. Chiaotzu is such a non entity he didn't speak to Goku ONCE in the entirety of the manga, and Toriyama didn't draw him in various scenes in which he is in. Launch, Oolong, Puar, Kaio-shin, and many others quickly became irrelevant or useless.

Yeah, Vegeta defeated God of destruction Toppo, was able to entertain Beerus more than Goku, he spanked Golden Frieza and Black, but Toryama just cares about Goku, Vegeta has A LOT of spotlight too.

Honestly I feel like TFS had a good solution to this. Making piccolos character more interesting by focusing on piccolos internal dialog as someone who has three completely different people inside him.

Recently Piccolo got a significant boost in spotlight in the new Dragon ball super: super hero movie along with Gohan
