dragonball seems to have certain continuity errors in the development of their stories. We recently talked about Vegeta’s first appearances, in which he comes out with red hair, breaking the rule that all Saiyans are born with only black hair.
Now we have found a new one in which there is an explanation of Akira Toriyama, according to the people of 3D Games: the strange case of the Namekuseí.
The first to show his face are Kami-Sama and King Piccolo. However, before we saw the children of the Demon King. Among the most prominent is Tambourine, since we met him for having been the assassin of Krillin (in his first death).
About this character, from the outset, there is nothing strange. He is a villain and nothing more than that. However, as time went by, a continuity error emerged in the anime.
With the birth of Piccolo who ends up being part of the Z Fighters and the arrival of the Frieza arc, an entire race appears with the same green appearance as this character and Kami.
What about Tambourine and the other children of King Piccolo?
The justified explanation is that King Piccolo could create villains from within under any aspect, respecting the green color of the race.
But the reality is different. According to the statements cited by the aforementioned medium, Akira Toriyama does not draw these characters in the same way because he was not planning to create an entire race on them.
The idea came later, when they started developing the Freeza arc that takes place precisely on the planet Namekuseí.
