The DragonBall Z Anime...

...added Piccolo to the people that Cell thought Goku might have meant could fight/defeat him.

Just thought I'd let you know.

hmmmm...

Now why they'd change that line so specifically, if that wasn't even in the manga? Did the anime take it upon itself to make Piccolo some-what relevant?

I think :toei forgot Piccolo only went in once rather than twice

 

[ahill1]

Toei was probably somewhat wanking him considering he also has a rather good performance against the Cell Juniors in the anime.

So did Tenshithands and Yamcha for a bit

 

[Fantastische Hure]

It just seems like an odd choice. Did they ask AT about this or something? Why would they do something like this? Like what's the point of changing that line? Seems odd.

 

[Captain Cadaver]

It may have been since his power was still closer to the Saiyans than to the humans, making him a more viable candidate than the other jabronis.

I was thinking that too. Piccolo just before Cell's 1st form powered-up was still relevant, but then not but if AT himself left Piccolo out, why would Toei add him? Unless AT forgot to mention him or something, so they rectified in the anime.

Isn't what the anime does? Make everyone look good? They does that all the time.

Yeah, but they never change a line that was in the manga in such a way as to include another character that wasn't there to begin with.

Well after Cell powered up to his maximum, Vegeta said that Cell's speed has increased which is stupid since Cell used his ''true'' speed against Gohan earlier. It's Toei twisting the manga as always.

Yeah, but they didn't add a character that wasn't there to that.

 

[Papasmurf]

Theyve changed other shit too, like Piccolo getting blown away by Trunks and Goten's power up when Goku asks them to go full power. In the anime he's just a little surprised they're already so strong, lol.

 

[Fantastische Hure]

But nothing like adding a character.

 

[Papasmurf]

Honestly not as bad as

 

[Fantastische Hure]

Can't deny that.

Maybe this is why I always thought Piccolo was hardcore and not some bitch ass.
