Why We Love Piccolo

Piccolo is a fan-favorite (and Toriyama-favorite) character for many reasons. It almost seems like he's unanimously respected. And after recently getting a movie focused on him, he's in the spotlight once more. But what exactly makes him such a great and beloved character in the fandom?

[@Serdun]

It's legitimately impossible to NOT like Piccolo, he's like the universally chill uncle everyone has

[@SwordSerpent07]

Yea

[@vegetacultminorityhunter]

But he's green though? (This is satire)

[@a180combatbowsergamepro6]

[@a180combatbowsergamepro6]

Nahh

[@SpectroliteDS]

GuGURRgrr, i HAET PICKLOUGH!!1! Tha BIG GREeN doES not LET THAT CHLD ALONE!

[@personofaperson5571]

I've always had an idea that since Namekians seem to live for an impossibly long amount of time, if Dragon Ball ever goes through a 100-year timeskip thing with a new cast and no Goku, that Piccolo would be a sort of "Roshi" figure. With how much he teaches and how effective he is at it, I'd like to see Piccolo become a sort of legendary master.

[@JoshTBM]

Piccolo has always been my favorite so many dont appreciate him enough I can't wait to see orange piccolo added to sparking zero

[@Chriso22]

Exactly he deserves more respect especially now

[@williamcartertindale11]

The Big Green himself.

[@reyespena1013]

Ha abridge

[@Lemonkey2345]

​@@reyespena1013i think the big green name comes from the AB groupe dub

[@Indra.rohann]

Whaaa it’s big grweenn

[@dilldall2080]

One of the OGs & Toriyam's favorite getting more respect. Dude was consistent MVP in all of the Dragon Ball franchise based on his wits alone.

[@SwordSerpent07]

The grill master on TOP

[@Starfallsupersonic]

I’m so glad they gave him a new transformation now my boy can finally be a part of main battles again

[@sirnutaku7716]

My boy Big Green, I don't think there's a more loved character that has a chill fan love relationship like Piccolo. He is just the boy that shows up, does his thing, leaves and doesn't elaborate.

[@zippersnstitches9009]

piccolo is the only guy to go from boss to playable character and not get nerfed

[@21stcenturyschizoidmana29]

Celebration for his returning status as some kind of Demon

[@beltbuckleboy2885]

He's green and cool so thats why we liek him

[@The_Unlimited_Void]

Piccolo is my second favorite character to play in sparking zero, just behind Jackie chun. (I don’t know why it’s a roshi skin, they’re not the same person.)

[@nubdub-wj3ej]

JUNE?! HOW FAR AHEAD IS HE?

[@SaladSaiyan]

Editing for February rn 🤫

[@halkras]

From Conquerer of Earth To Mentoring younger generations **he got bigger character development than Vegeta

[@Vegetastechnique]

What if salad saiyan wasn’t a salad

[@AtomicOwl]

Blasphemy haha

[@MonkeyD.Gerald]

Piccolo just tends to be that uncle/Older brother that is chill and someone you wanna look up to.He is my 3rd favorite db character!

[@dbza4107]

Piccolo is the first one to sacrifice himself if it came down to it, piccolo doesent make dumb decisions like the rest of the cast when it comes to the earth, piccolo is knowledgeable and respectful, i dont think he is everyone’s favorite buthe has no glaring flaws as a character

[@yexe9129]

Ngl, it's also hilarious that a guy who people meme is Gohan's true dad...is only three years older than him.

[@TheWarmachine375]

Piccolo is pure unadulterated awesomeness.

[@KleinpeterHank]

When I heard Big Green say: “Let that child alone” I knew he was him. Fr tho I’ve always loved Piccolo. In many ways he had the Vegeta redemption arc before Vegeta, but because a lot of people are less familiar with OGDB he doesn’t get the same recognition. Plus, the drip he has in the driving episode of DBZ is peak.

[@otislamar8613]

June 2024 bro you dropped this in October

[@TAKINH24]

Vegeta never misread his opponents strength, he always misread his own strength

[@StoriesNyTV]

Def my favorite character with Vegeta coming in at a close 2nd 😌

[@sirnutaku7716]

May 13th Piccolo day, we shall all celebrate the day of Big Greens love to the world 🗣

[@UltraPickleMan]

Piccolo is like that guy that does nothing but everyone is chill with

[@Chriso22]

Littreally my favourite character in the series

[@AhmedHussain-ju6xd]

Seeing piccolos new form, orange is truly the new black 😁

[@fuostae5063]

this is such a beautiful video

[@dragonhut2330]

Evil Salad: I hate Piccolo

[@guardiantree8879]

He never stops, training, teaching, fighting, grilling, babysitting & dropping one liners (especially in dba). Also I freakin love how protective he is of Pan in Super. So sweet. For some comedy gold though I do kinda wish he had a girlfriend in a similar vain to Launch & Tien.

[@jiero3253]

That new diama episode really made room for speculation on the origins of namekians. Demon king piccolo might have actually been a demon king

[@stephenquinn3447]

He always has been, he was literally never said to not be a demon, just also a namekian

[@diablo.the.cheater]

@@stephenquinn3447 But the new info from Daima seems to imply that Namekians ARE a species from the Demon World, essentially a species of demons, which would make every namekian a demon.

[@zpydd_]

db piccolo(jr) was little rascal i love him

[@LovethedemonWolf2.0]

i definetly love picolo because not only is hes smart is so mature and the only character besides vegeta to be seious 24/7 and i love that about him

[@mobydedede4321]

Despite being green he is the most down to earth relatable guy in the show imo, getting changed by others around him And mentoring the next generation while also not being perfect and improving his flaws.

[@trentonayershandsoffire3620]

And that's why we love piccolo… nicely did!!

[@justin9860]

Akira always loved him the most and you can tell by how universally loved he is by DB fans.

[@guardiantree8879]

We don’t talk about the bug in ToP… bruh that made me write a fanfic for him, Piccolo’s Students just to get that bitter taste forgotten.

[@_WiZ420]

Also this video was needed for the community in general: too many people think it's nigh-exclusively Gohan to change Piccolo. Goku and Gohan both contributed to it, and the fact you pointed out that Gohan shows Goku-like qualities when changing the Demon clan Namekian... These are simple details, but so many people overlook these parts. Losing sight of these subtleties are apart of why a certain people can appreciate any complex show that isn't Dragon Ball.

[@markvlogs1758]

Piccolo had great character development, lore and is a just a great guy to be around. What's not to like about him?

[@theatlantean8036]

Salad Saiyan competition with Madara as the biggest glazer 😭

[@mackenziefrancis9724]

He protec he attack but most importantly he baby sat

[@g5austinttv]

Wooo!

[@zolelwavanqa6745]

Finally some love for my green goat Piccolo🤚

[@bdf1006]

You mentioned an important point of Goku having an effect to bring out the best in people and that really needs to be highlighted. Plenty people complain about Goku sparing his enemies but from Goku's perspective that is the correct choice considering literally none of the Z fighters were good people when Goku first met them. Yamcha - Bandit, Tien/Chaitzu - Assassin, Piccolo - Main Villian, Krillin was a dick to him in the beginning, Roshi was a giant pervert, Chi-Chi his wife is the daughter of a Bandit King and Bulma shot Goku when they first met. Goku has every reason to believe anyone can change and he's proven right after Dragon Ball as well with Vegeta, the Androids and even Majin Buu who was basically the Ultimate Evil during Z.

[@Jiren_edits1739]

The reason why we love pickle is because he gets his ass beat more than Yamcha in nearly every arc of the show even though they’re not a villain💀💀💀💀

[@Strongestintheuniverse0]

I dont think I’ve ever seen a person who doesnt like piccolo, most people I’ve seen like him or just dont have an opinion on him

[@Lexa14]

dbza piccolo is amazing as well

[@LunaP1]

I had a crush on Piccolo in the past. Still like him, though.

[@Meme-rh8ow]

The grill master is truly goated

[@omegaenforcer4220]

I love piccolo definitely my favourite character in dbz and in fiction

[@BaithNa]

Also, he's the first black dad in anime

[@GSProductions33]

Definitely my favorite anime elf!!

[@_WiZ420]

I'd say the people you can trust MOST on Gohan are those who remain neutral on Great Saiyaman; there are exceptions, but you're not going to hear the average one of us spout off an opinion based off of an opinion😂

[@MrKnickerBockerr]

Hes the GOAT

Piccolo is the goat of dragon ball

They did my boy so dirty in super

[@zebastianbaez432]

Sorry for being late but maybe you should go on the topic on how strong again you force might have be like goldo could have other people stop time for theirselves Captain Ginyu could have switched the ki energy of appearance maybe even the lesser squad like the blue and red one could news like elemental abilities but a sorry for everything I just hope you have a good day

[@damanireynolds45]

Love Piccolo!

[@Dyna_Point]

he is practically the only relevant black person in the series Who wouldn’t love him

[@therandomguy8783]

I don't know how autistic i am or what stage of ADHD i have but i know Piccolo looks different in every saga but i can't figure out what it is exactly I think it's his eyes getting smaller and his ''eyebrows'' getting bigger, although i'm not sure

[@Jacob_Frye1]

Oh no, broly look! It's such a tragedy cell max stole yo Jay's.

[@carlosgonzalezfernandez3806]

What if WE never LOVED PICCOLO?

[@specialnewb9821]

Piccolo killed Gokus brother and replaced him as that brother. Too bad you didn't have time to add the new revelation from yesterday.

[@Enter_Denhym]

We? Wee? Wii? Oui? Salad Saiyan is now bilingual because bro is speaking French 😩🙏

[@overheatedfrost8947]

maybe Torotaro will do something more for Piccolo, for Akira's sake, also can somebody tell me the song at 3:10, please Salad do me a favor and tell me that song, I first heard on Plus Ultra man's channel what if during one that had Piccolo in it, so please Salad, tell me this song, it's hard for me to find, seeing it here with Piccolo is great?

[@bobbyweight2170]

Great vid. Hated super hero but was worth it as you’re right Piccollo needed a power boost. Buu saga then Broly movie killed him for no reason. Hate great Saiya man as I showed someone DB for the first time. Happened to be that episode which is embarrassing and shit. That person thinks DB is gay now. Thanks - Subscribed!!

[@chefinabottle]

My favorite character ever since I first got into this franchise. There wasn't a single word on this earth to describe how happy I was when Super Hero dropped

[@mememc]

Spoilers for daima ahead I am really excited for the development we are getting about namekians and the demon realm with the new show, getting to understand more about the orgins of the namekians and the dragonballs seems to be one focus of daima and i am all for it.

[@pistolmann3608]

What if we the viewers mad e a video called why we love salad saiyan

[@Menacing_ly]

PEAK

[@GillyOG]

The really REAL reason why we TRULY love us some Piccolo!! One word: DODGE!!!!

[@AvvRetryy]

I love gotenks

[@Rafael-et4gq]

We? Who’s we?

[@urionlimitbreaker8876]

That was very good, Salad. Not only did you show appreciation to your 2 favorite Dragonball Characters, but you've also shown more hidden details of how favorite Big Green is in a new that even I didn't know about. I am happy with how you explain Piccolo's development and I hope we see his new adventure in upcoming chapters and anime.

[@bobbyweight2170]

He should have checked what Shenron was doing in Revival F don’t get why he didn’t? Makes no sense. They shouldn’t have shown him realising Shenron was summoned. Also, he should have killed that Red guy. His sacrifice was pointless and by super hero’s logic Gohan should have went Beast right then and there.

[@zephyr7748]

Anyone know the name of the music that plays at 3:09?

Bro seriously skipped over gt piccolo with one of his best moments
