You could make your created guy's aura black in Ultimate Tenkaichi and I did because he was a misunderstood soul whose heart yearned for a worthy battle.
I made mine hot pink and gave him that move that ends in an inazuma dick-stomp. Seemed the right way to treat that game.

I want Piccolo's renaissance to be defending Pan from some crazed space monster. He's the bestest and I hate that he's been sidelined by Saiyan nonsense.

So basically his role in all the movies where he comes out of nowhere, saves gohan, and then jobs to the villain while goku powers up?

My biggest wish for Dragonball Super, besides making Broly canon, is to for them to make Piccolo matter in fights. Give him another fusion so he can fight the second form of the next big villain like he did with Frieza, at least.

He hasn't really been in a position to do that for a while, but I want him to lose his poo poo when someone goes after Pan and defeat the main baddie while everyone else looks on in stunned silence. Hell, he barely even ATTEMPTED to fight in the Buu saga.

They don't even need to find a disposable namekian for Piccolo to fuse with, they can just give him a new aura he achieved through meditation sometime after Buu died and call it A NEW FORM and have him at least be able to participate in the crazier fights

As much as I love Piccolo, hes never really accomplished much outside of killing Raditz. He dies before they can fight Vegeta and from then on he holds off Frieza and 17 but that's about it for fights. Hell his fight against Cooler's squad is by far the coolest fight he's been given and that was in a movie.

That's pretty much true for every character that isn't Goku. It's just the way Dragonball is.

It really discouraged me that Piccolo assumed something was up with Supreme Kai, but he didn't know poo poo about Beerus and outright attacked him when everyone else jumped in.

I was going to make a joke and tell you what to search for if you wanted the equivalent of western furry art on pixiv, but honestly its not worth it. Suffice to say you should always search with R-18 filtering on.

Is it anything like the episodes of Mythbusters where they do TV/movie stuff

those episodes are hilariously awesome (I remember the one where they tried the Underworld shoot-a-hole-in-the-floor thing being hilarious as gently caress specifically)

e: it's not, but if you're completely unaware of DB's ties to real-world mythology it's probably interesting (so, lots of normies and basically nobody in this thread)

I think that's a zero sum game - it's not like Kami/Piccolo is stronger than the original namekian.

No it's more like some guy with a vaguely annoying voice making terrible jokes and just being generally tedious.
