The katakana is ベジータ (Bejīta). It's widely been romanized as "Vegeta" in both Japan and America since the character first debuted in 1989. Also, I'm not certain, but I think his name was officially romanized as "Vegita" at some point in Japan. At the very least, that was a common spelling for...

Even Goku told Gohan that Piccolo wasn't as evil before they saw each other again when Raditz appeared. Piccolo hadn't killed anyone for 8 years since his birth. He wasn't as bad as the Demon King Piccolo.

A wannabe demon ain't a demon.

This is actually from the 35th issue of the Legendary Manga guide. I'm not even sure if the Italian or Greek editions got that far Edit: nvm they did lol

On the subject of elongating parts of names, ベジータ (Bejīta) should technically be "Vegeeta" because the ジ (ji) is elongated by the ー (chōonpu). Despite this, practically everyone romanizes it as "Vegeta", even though that would properly be pronounced as "vah/veh/vuh + geh/jeh + ta/tuh"...

The Spanish version doesn't specifically mention blonde hair at all, but the French version does. It's not uncommon for some things to get lost or missed in translation, which is why I'd like to see the other Italian and Greek versions to compare.

Piccolo "Junior" was never part of the Demon clan. This is confirmed when Goku and Raditz's spirits pass into the afterlife after Piccolo kills them. Victims of real demons go into limbo.

He was still evil. Just shared a common cause with the actual good guys, which was wanting to beat the Androids and Cell. He may have not functioned as an antagonist at this point in the story, but he was by no means a hero. Calling him one, even an antihero, just because he beat up bad guys is...

Fuck this shit hope this game fucking flops.
