Piccolo Jr. at the 23rd Tournament looked like King Piccolo???

I mean they look alike, and Goku even calls him his Doppel-Ganger, yet no-one says anything, but Goku.

Then he removes his turban, and reveals his antenna (?), and they are all like "OMG IT'S PICCOLO" & everyone panics, as if that's what they needed to confirm that. Like it wasn't obvious all-along.

It's like that joke of a person running away from people, and then he does a really quick change of adding a fake moustache to him or something, and all of a sudden they act like it's a completely different person, and ask where the other fellow went.

like :wat :wat :wat

Well, they are the worlds greatest fighters...

Not the worlds greatest detectives.

With all due respect, sir I didn't know to figure that out.

That didn't even make sense. :(

Tenshinhan noticed immediately that he had some relation to Daimao, for what it's worth. Lunch also noticed later on too.

What did TenShinHan say? I don't remember, I think.

To be fair, in Dragonball talking dogs are considered people. Just having green skin probably isn't enough to brand someone as the descendant of a demon king.

But Goku called him his Doppel-Ganger, too.

& even beyond all that he still kind-of looked a lot like Piccolo Sr.. His face looks almost like Piccolo Sr.'s & he even is similar in height, I think.

Maybe his turban (attire in-general) made people think otherwise, but then other than the Cape & turban, he wore quite similar clothing to King-Piccolo.

Goku didn't officially reveal he was Piccolo Daimao's double until he sealed Kami in the bottle. Before that he told Tenshithands he must have been a surviving Mazoku clan member of little importance. Most of the references he made to Daimao before then were monologues no one else heard.

Yeah, that's what I meant. Goku internally made that comment that that must be Piccolo's Doppel-Ganger, if Goku can see so much of resemblance, how did no-one else?

Not even a joke line, like "you/he look(s) eerily similar to...".

But maybe everyone just forgot or something.

Also I can't remember that Goku said something like that to Tenshinhan. :( :( :(

Too lazy to find a more accurate translation, but this isn't that far off from what he originally said.

Also, Goku was told by Kami beforehand that Piccolo's double survived and would come after his life in the tournament. Everyone else believed Piccolo and his men to be gone.

But yeah I think now I remember that.

Even-though it's still kind-of weird considering how similar they looked.

You could say it's a Clark Kent - Superman sort of situation. Just wearing a turban and cape somehow has that effect in-universe
