@@InnovativeJdawg somewhere else someone made a good observation that, the Namekians seem to be a low tier race in the pantheon of gods, and kai's and such. Considering that Namekians seem to be the only race to be able to create dragon balls, which can do God like things, I'm proposing that Shenron brought that 'dragon ball making' energy to the surface for Piccolo in a physical form.... Hence the orange color.
Piccolo was definitely the main character of the movie. I'm so glad he shined in it and it showed that he should never be shafted again. Also, Orange Piccolo looks hardcore and I loved his relationship with Pan.
@lucas I'm aware of his development throughout the manga, having grown up with the franchise. I wouldn't want new transformations every time either and even had Piccolo not obtained new forms in the movie, I still would've been happy that he shined regardless. Android 17 and 18 didn't get new forms in the T.O.P. but they delivered big time in it, especially the former. It's also not like I want Krillin to get a transformation, either. Finally, with the forms Goku and Vegeta have now, they should not obtain more transformations.
Dude. At 40, I’ve been watching DB since I was I kid. Everything you laid down is solid and makes so much sense. As a die hard fan I’m so glad they finally have piccolo his due.
I’m so glad my boi got not one, but TWO NEW FORMS. I’m also love the theory of Dragon God Zalama being connected to Namekians, or even BEING Namekian himself. Maybe Piccolo receiving the respect of a Dragon is his first step on his “Path of the Dragons”. Piccolo could be the Namekian Zalama is waiting for. Maybe his grand destiny is to become the next Dragon God, and this Orange form is a stepping stone in achieving that evolution.
I've always loved the idea of Piccolo getting his own story arc tying to the Super Dragon Balls and Zalama, so I'm hoping that "Path of the Dragons" thing comes true!
So Iv always theorized that Zeno being a destroyer of universes there must be a higher Kai that creates universes and maybe the super dragon balls. If this is so it would be amazing if it's a ancient namekian who created everything.
@@InnovativeJdawg Have You Enhanced Evil King Piccolo In Legendary Super Warriors With A Gameshark?!You One Shot Everyone In Battle Mode!LIGHT GRENADE FTW!!!!!
That's actually a good catch about the dragon balls being orange and a fact that Toriyama even missed in choosing this new power-up color since it's stated that he just wanted something over the top.
I wish I was Toriyama. I would've given Piccolo his own arc. He would be on his way to learning about Zalama and becoming equal to the Dragon God of the Namekian Dragon Balls. The villain would be another evil Namekian who wants the Super Dragon balls for himself, kinda like Lord Slug. Orange Piccolo would be teaming up with Pilina, Soanel, and other Namekian warriors to fight against the evil Namekian. Hell, I would even have Piccolo getting a companion in the arc (maybe another female species that admires him or has a crush on him or something) That's why I'm a fanfic writer
In fact, Piccolo was supposed to be the sole protagonist of Super Hero but Toriyama was convinced to have Gohan be a co-lead. Still, Piccolo was THE protagonist of the film with Gohan as the deuteragonist.
@@InnovativeJdawg Yeah, I would rather have them list Piccolo as an out and out asexual. Not like asexuals are over represented in media, plus Piccolo fits the bill perfectly.
Great explanation of Orange Piccolo and how the form is a representation of Piccolo's character arc. It is about time that Piccolo has a proper transformation, and what better time than in the dragonball super superhero movie, which is the movie that arguably had Piccolo be the main character.
Personally, i like the thought that this is a form that only the dragon of the dragon balls itself can grant, not something that can be unlocked just by training endlessly like Goku and Vegeta.
You might be on to something because in the beginning of the namek arc Mauri explains that gathering the dragon balls on namek is a trial namekian warriors undertake to test themselves.
Team for star had it right when they got sense to make new dragon balls saying he was from the warrior clan so like the mystics who can heal and creat dragon balls but cannot use the power of the eternal dragon themselves but the warriors may be able to use the power of the dragons in a way for itself
@@syler100 My thoughts exactilly. If i remember correctly, the original creator of the super dragon balls was a namekian and this may have been the dragons way of sending him down the same path as that same legendary namekian.
long over due boost to piccolo, honestly one of the very best characters out of the entire franchise, from typical villain, teacher to gohan (more of a father than goku ever was), to beloved comrade
I already liked Orange Piccolo, but this explanation makes me appreciate the form even more. I love the fact that they used Namekian culture and their connection with the Dragon Balls to give new power to Piccolo.
The fact that no one in the comments talks about the correction that this transformation makes to the original manga shows that the majority of dbs fans have never read the original manga and have only discovered DB with the abridged version
I like orange Piccolos conection to the dragonballs showing off in the orange color and even the red stars within the dragon balls by having Piccolos "marks" (or whatever they are) also being red. I could imagine ... and hope to see it .. if Piccolo grows his potential even further and develops "super namekian 2" form it turns out to be a even more dragon clan based form and giving Piccolo some Shen Long / Polunga like body features - like turning into the legendary dragon of Namekians lore. I could even imagine a whole "Piccolo Spin off Story" (maybe as seperated new manga/anime series or within the Dragon Ball Story ) Lots of potential !
I do hope the Earthling Warriors get a boost as well, perhaps using the biggest missed opportunities to fix power levels with God Ki and Kaioken. These were never exclusive to the Saiyans and would level the playing field.
With Gohan and Picolo back in the game, now I wish the real super human like Tien and Kililin attain new heights at some point too, I would love to include Yamcha but the man choose to dropped the warrior path so I'll respect that and see if he will change his mind. For me, Tien is one most prominent figure even as his time as villian and he deserve that honor again, he use to be so broken as enemy who can completely analyzed any martial arts techniques known to man just by seeing them for the first time, even copy and executed them in perfect form. Would be cool if he can do so again in grander scale that not involved specific condition or power component.
The problem with new levels for humans like krillen is the fact that they are humans, there is no OP lore tied to humans attaining power anywhere close to these other races..it's just not in the cards, the best humans can do is potential unlocked which the strongest human fighters like krillen have undergone and bc they are human they won't achieve gains like saiyans or the other races..that's just the sad truth.
It really depends on how Toriyama want them to be, after promising Gohan's potential as human-saiyan hybrid, it could always be a kind of hidden potential for human race that even Guru can't unleash. If Toriyama decides to give humans more spotlight, it would also be another exciting development, since it also means Goku will have more sparing partners to train with than just Vegeta and open more windows for antagonists that focus on smaller scope for Z-Fighter to deal with while Goku and Vegeta are busy elsewhere.
Piccolo and Kami were originally one being split in two and now whole again. The dragon awakening his potential would have got “both” of them here because they were never really two people to begin with
as they are one being their combined potential has unlocked by Shenron. That's why Piccolo suprised of his new power up was even greater than what he expected to be.
I love this transform of piccolo cuz i always saw potential in him and the writers kept making him relevant but not enough credit till vegeta came and i am just happy.also shenron a real g
@@InnovativeJdawg yeah. I still remember the snub Vegeta gave Piccolo during the Buu saga when they were using the hyperbolic time chamber. Also, if Vegeta really really is gonna take meditating as apart of his training, he'd be a fool not to learn a bit from Piccolo. Would be a good chance to showcase how Piccolo's meditation is let to his techniques and ki control
Awesome video, man. I love the Orange Piccolo form. It's cool to see Piccolo just became this big monster of a fighter. I can't wait to see him in future Dragon Ball stuff and watch him grow even stronger. It's great to see my favourite character get so much spotlight now. ^^
I was literally thinking Piccolo was a great fighter and they've kinda pulled back on him so seeing what he can do an be back in the fight will be sick to see can't wait
I love this because piccolo stayed vigilant of threats and trained throughout the whole series but also he was a namek born on earth. He had no idea what it was like to be from his home planet or hasn’t ever seen a namekian until the frieza saga. Once he arrived on namek he changed and has become more in touch wiith his roots as a namekian. He’s the best character finally he’s caught up💯🔥 🐉
Your bit about Piccolo's character arc coming full circle, great observation when you consider this started with King Piccolo wishing for eternal youth.
You can tell that Orange Piccolo was inspired by Escanor's form, "The One" from Seven Deadly Sins. • both of them symbolize pride • both have a flare-like aura • both are orange when activated • and both of them become burly when they activate it. I like it.
The latent potential pushed for Namekians is multiplied by the amount of fused individuals as well. Piccolo is a combination of 3. He unlocked not just his full potential, but the combination of them. Also he got the same perks as Bojack. Also Piccolo was able to transform into a larger being since Dragonball.(check the martial arts tournament vs Goku) It's not a "reward" but an expected unlock he deserved. Gohan and Piccolo are only off by 1 major item. Gohan has the power unlocked by a Kai.(Majin Buu saga & the form Gohan used until he stopped training and went skinny in the Frieza movie. At that point Gohan focused on super Saiyan to take out the small guys because he was weaker. He became more built and tone in super in reflection. Keep in mind the only reason he got the Kai power up is because he didn't want to focus on his Saiyan anger, but to keep a strong focus on the situation. ) So Piccolo could eventually get the same unlock later. He may be more powerful than you know.
Remember, kami originally had the power to stop freiza. So piccolo had great potential deep down. Great to see it arrive. Hopefully to xenoverse 2 or 3 as well
Man it be cool that Piccolo can draw power from namek If he needs it! And he doesn't need to fuse to get the powers of any namek in the full super universe
The earthlings should be trained and have their potential unlocked by the Kaioshins. The earthlings and the Kaioshins were turned into background characters in Super so it would be a good chance to give them something. It would be cool to have a new Z-sword, Yamcha used to be a sword fighter so it would be nice to see him train with that. A movie based only around humans would be nice. Maybe we see the Crane School's return who knows.
Problem with the Z sword is that it was just a regular sword with the old kaioshin sealed in it which made it so heavy and difficult to control. The sword itself was a pretty standart sword shown by the fact that it easily broke when Goku and Gohan wanted to try out its sharpness. So for a new z sword to appear they’d have to seal a kaioshin into a sword
@@beatsbyadmiralz5915 They could juse the Dragonballs or something who knows. The sword wasn't just a sword. Both Gohan and Goku struggled a lot to use it and Gohan did become much stronger just by training with it. Dragonball used to have many swordsmen once (Yamcha,Murasaki,Tao Pai Pai,Yajirobe,Trunks,Dabura) so it would be a cool adition instead of having the same standard training.
@@InnovativeJdawg super heros isn't cannon like the old Broly ss3 4 and etc its beyond filler random out of place series the Power Gohan has should have been explained as he is only half saiyian so he will never get to red or blue
Everyone's excited about the new forms. Im just happy they finally show goten and trunks aging as well as adding blood back in the fighting scenes. ❤🔥❤🔥
Orange piccollo is none other than the real " super namekian"...this has opened new possibilities of story telling. Akira toriyama maybe planning to take a different path than manga. May he be planning to explore "super dragon Ball" and " multiverse"...
one thing that helps his transformation being so powerful is when Kami was mentioned to guru, he stated he would be stronger than freeza. Freeza got his gold form from 4 months of training so I think a wish from the dragon balls plus nonstop training he easily keeps up as a top character
By far the best new transformation Dragon Ball made after the super saiyan 4. But it would have been nice to see it after Piccollo had fused with other namekians, since that was a good excuse to give him a massive boost of power.
I wish Tory didn’t put so much focus on Goku and Vegeta during Z. The rest of the Z Fighters should’ve gotten PU, and Piccolo should’ve been taught Kaioken (Namekians can heal which would counteract the effects of Kaioken). He could also have latent god ki after fusing with Kami that he didn’t know how to access until encountering Whis. I would even make changes to the Saiyans too.
Ajisa (アジッサ, Ajissa), called Hydrangea Plants These crops were destroyed by a giant storm that ravaged the planet in Age 261. Dende describes this scenario to Krillin and Gohan during dinner when Krillin wonders why Namekians cultivate this plant since they do not need food and only drink water. Initially, Krillin thought that the crops were supposed to be consumed by the Namekians, but Dende reveals that the crops are cultivated only to enhance the beauty of their planet.
Piccolo has been disciplined, humble, strong, smart, patience and a pillar for his group for awhile. He deserved what goku and vegeta train for. They keep learning to be all the things listed above. Piccolo has always been those things. He should be a S class character
I see it more as, with potential unlocked, he was able to access a form literally blocked to him until he had said potential unlocked. Essentially, if he had his potential unlocked earlier, hed likely be at this similar state of power now. If anything hed be a lil stronger because he would have had time to practice and master these forms.
When I first seen orange piccolo, his ability made me think, it's similar to how ultra instinct and ultra ego work. For orange piccolo, I firmly believe that his transformation grants him rising defense, durability and rapid stamina regeneration. Much like how ultra instinct grants autonomous evasion and counter and ultra ego grants more power and strength the more damage you take, orange piccolo's defense and durability went off the charts. Gamma 2 couldn't even phase piccolo anymore and when fighting cell max, despite the brutal beating, piccolo just keeps going, never even bother to block most of cell maxes attacks. Not only that, but, piccolo instantly went back into his orange form to hold off cell maxes stomp on gamma 2 and again to hold him down for Gohan beast to attack him, even though he got brutalized and knocked out. The forms represents the fighters perfectly. Goku, ever since fighting nappa, has always been about dodging and evasion, Vegeta has always been about taking severe beatings yet still being able to return them in full and never stoping until completely knocked down, and piccolo has always fought defensively while conserving stamina yet giving back just as much as he took in terms of a beatdown. With this new form, it seems like, he no longer has to focus on defending and can focus fully on attacking. The best transformation for the most defensive fighter, a form that focuses on defense and durability so you can just keep attacking while not getting easily tired, I love it. With this transformation, piccolo can without question outlast his opponents. I don't know exactly about outmatching Goku's true ultra instinct, but I know one thing, piccolo WILL outlast him and can most definitely beat Goku, since Goku still has rapid stamina loss when using that form, piccolo would only have to bid his time, which is something he naturally does already. Between the three transformations, I'd choose orange piccolo's over the other two, as long as you can stay in that form, your defense just keeps rising and you don't even need to take damage to make it stronger. My opponent might be stronger than me, but as long as they aren't androids with infinite stamina, I know I can win, just have to outlast them, which is made easier by having an ability that will make me more durable as time passes so I can conserve energy and stamina, turning myself into a very effective juggernaut tank, enough said.
The only complaint I have about the situation is that Dende was just like "Oh yeah sure let me just upgrade the dragon with this water I had laying around" instead of it being something he had been working on and finally had a reason to use. A couple of different lines could have made that feel much less hand-wavy
I agree actually. I didn't mind it that it was on-the-spot, Dragon Ball usually does that sort of stuff, but it would've been more interesting if Dende had planned on upgrading the dragon balls for some time and this was the perfect opportunity to actually do it.
I want to know why his arms are a different shade of orange compared to the rest of his body. It is even stranger as his hands are the same color as his body, but the arms alone are clearly darker.
I haven't seen anything after Dragon ball Z. But i hear about all kinds of transformation for the Sayan characters. I personally believe they should always have a character that can keep up with the Sayans. It makes the story more interesting. And Picolo should be that character.
Yeah he’s definitely the orange and red of the dragon balls lol I saw someone ask why not call him dragon piccolo which I think is perfect but you know it had to be more like Barr-u Piccolo then they were like … nah .. nah lol
Should’ve given him more of a focus on Magic instead of Ki so it wouldn’t be just another transformation and no other Z fighter uses magic. It would make so much sense. Give him healing abilities like Dende, creation abilities as Kami, and namekian fighting abilities
Imma call it Solar Piccalo since namekians get their energy the same way as plants. My theory is that his photosynthesis process was multiplied overflowing him with solar energy making him orange. Kinda like escanor
It's pretty simple and obvious to me. A cucumber will turn orange when ripe. Being picked however, he needed some help from Shenron to ripen up (unlock his latent power).
I do think this form had more explanation behind it than Gohan Beast did, but it wasn't really expanded upon too much. It was basically just Shenron going "oh here you go" and Piccolo going "cool"
Ultimate Piccolo is scales to Goku ssj Blue level and Orange Piccolo is around on Par with UI Goku. Plus Orange Piccolo form represents his Namekian Culture.
Wasn't there an interview where Toriyama or someone said that Orange Piccolo was basically the Elder Kai Unlocking compared to the Elder Guru Unlocking of his first form?
So instead of orange piccolo, why not call him Dragon Piccolo? Since Shenron unlocked his potential for the transformation
That would be a pretty cool name

Keep in mind the only reason he got the Kai power up is because he didn't want to focus on his Saiyan anger, but to keep a strong focus on the situation. )
So Piccolo could eventually get the same unlock later. He may be more powerful than you know.
Nice catch! The massive power boost makes a lot more sense when you factor in the multiple individuals that are fused within him.
Remember, kami originally had the power to stop freiza. So piccolo had great potential deep down. Great to see it arrive. Hopefully to xenoverse 2 or 3 as well
Man it be cool that
Piccolo can draw power from namek
If he needs it! And he doesn't need to fuse to get the powers of any namek in the full super universe
The earthlings should be trained and have their potential unlocked by the Kaioshins. The earthlings and the Kaioshins were turned into background characters in Super so it would be a good chance to give them something. It would be cool to have a new Z-sword, Yamcha used to be a sword fighter so it would be nice to see him train with that. A movie based only around humans would be nice. Maybe we see the Crane School's return who knows.
Problem with the Z sword is that it was just a regular sword with the old kaioshin sealed in it which made it so heavy and difficult to control. The sword itself was a pretty standart sword shown by the fact that it easily broke when Goku and Gohan wanted to try out its sharpness. So for a new z sword to appear they’d have to seal a kaioshin into a sword
@@beatsbyadmiralz5915 They could juse the Dragonballs or something who knows. The sword wasn't just a sword. Both Gohan and Goku struggled a lot to use it and Gohan did become much stronger just by training with it. Dragonball used to have many swordsmen once (Yamcha,Murasaki,Tao Pai Pai,Yajirobe,Trunks,Dabura) so it would be a cool adition instead of having the same standard training.
I agree Leone! There's a lot of potential for the humans and the kaioshins to form a master/student type relationship.
I don;t want to care how he got it, I'm just glad he got new forms.
It definitely surprised me, I'm glad Piccolo got more love
@@InnovativeJdawg Yep.
For some reason I think dragon god piccolo would be cool although I know he doesn't have god ki
Same here! Maybe God Ki Piccolo will be a new form in the future
Hopefully it goes into the series and not just a movie only power
The Super Hero movie MIGHT get remade into episodes when the new anime releases. But if it does, I have a feeling they'll bring the form back.
@@InnovativeJdawg super heros isn't cannon like the old Broly ss3 4 and etc its beyond filler random out of place series the Power Gohan has should have been explained as he is only half saiyian so he will never get to red or blue
It's about time piccolo get shown some love now he can have time to shine
Agreed!
Very good explanation. Your explanation makes it feel a bit more earned, than it felt in the movie to be frank.
Thank you so much dude all the other videos are just from people that want money, i think you tried to make this video good to inform people
Great explanation bro .
Everyone's excited about the new forms. Im just happy they finally show goten and trunks aging as well as adding blood back in the fighting scenes. ❤🔥❤🔥
And there is my reason to get back into the series, I love Piccolo
Gigachad Piccolo
I feel like he should be called Diesel Piccolo
Orange piccollo is none other than the real " super namekian"...this has opened new possibilities of story telling. Akira toriyama maybe planning to take a different path than manga. May he be planning to explore "super dragon Ball" and " multiverse"...
THE GOAT WITH A NEW GOATED FORM. 🔥Video btw
Thank you! Nice profile pic by the way
Let's gooooooo my favorite form in super hero.
Looking forward to seeing more of it in the future!
@@InnovativeJdawg Me too man!
The first scene I saw was Piccolo sacrifice himself for Gohan. He's my favorite character, and this needed to happen.
Piccolo was underrated heavily an now he got big ups he's come far from the nameless namekian I hope they add his transformations for cacs
If Xenoverse 3 gets released, I could see it being a new transformation!
one thing that helps his transformation being so powerful is when Kami was mentioned to guru, he stated he would be stronger than freeza. Freeza got his gold form from 4 months of training so I think a wish from the dragon balls plus nonstop training he easily keeps up as a top character
I loved that open hand slap with a light grenade Piccolo gave cell. I'm gonna call that his Pimp-Hand Grenade Slap
Oh yeah that was a cool little move he did
This explanation made me respect the power up…doesn’t feel like just plot
I wonder if Krillin could get a new form too.
I wouldn't say it's impossible. Maybe it'll happen lol
LMFAOOO what super midget ?
He’s just human idk what he could do? Turn into saitama
@@legendarybroly2 idk, maybe access God ki.
Nah but Tien should
The Orange Namekian has arrived!!!! Piccolo is forever GOATED
True, hope he gets more shine again in future stories!
@@InnovativeJdawg I wouldnt mind another piccolo centric movie or even an arc. He carried this movie
By far the best new transformation Dragon Ball made after the super saiyan 4. But it would have been nice to see it after Piccollo had fused with other namekians, since that was a good excuse to give him a massive boost of power.
I wish Tory didn’t put so much focus on Goku and Vegeta during Z. The rest of the Z Fighters should’ve gotten PU, and Piccolo should’ve been taught Kaioken (Namekians can heal which would counteract the effects of Kaioken). He could also have latent god ki after fusing with Kami that he didn’t know how to access until encountering Whis. I would even make changes to the Saiyans too.
Piccolo orange from the dragon ball being that color which is smart and if he get beyond form could be red mixed with it and a darker dark green
Maybe we'll see more colors in the future lol
Ajisa (アジッサ, Ajissa), called Hydrangea Plants These crops were destroyed by a giant storm that ravaged the planet in Age 261. Dende describes this scenario to Krillin and Gohan during dinner when Krillin wonders why Namekians cultivate this plant since they do not need food and only drink water. Initially, Krillin thought that the crops were supposed to be consumed by the Namekians, but Dende reveals that the crops are cultivated only to enhance the beauty of their planet.
The "added bonus" was what Kami (and therefore "Piccolo") put into creating the Dragon Balls.
My boy Piccolo, finally getting his recognition!
Piccolo has been disciplined, humble, strong, smart, patience and a pillar for his group for awhile. He deserved what goku and vegeta train for. They keep learning to be all the things listed above. Piccolo has always been those things. He should be a S class character
I see it more as, with potential unlocked, he was able to access a form literally blocked to him until he had said potential unlocked. Essentially, if he had his potential unlocked earlier, hed likely be at this similar state of power now. If anything hed be a lil stronger because he would have had time to practice and master these forms.
When I first seen orange piccolo, his ability made me think, it's similar to how ultra instinct and ultra ego work. For orange piccolo, I firmly believe that his transformation grants him rising defense, durability and rapid stamina regeneration. Much like how ultra instinct grants autonomous evasion and counter and ultra ego grants more power and strength the more damage you take, orange piccolo's defense and durability went off the charts. Gamma 2 couldn't even phase piccolo anymore and when fighting cell max, despite the brutal beating, piccolo just keeps going, never even bother to block most of cell maxes attacks. Not only that, but, piccolo instantly went back into his orange form to hold off cell maxes stomp on gamma 2 and again to hold him down for Gohan beast to attack him, even though he got brutalized and knocked out. The forms represents the fighters perfectly. Goku, ever since fighting nappa, has always been about dodging and evasion, Vegeta has always been about taking severe beatings yet still being able to return them in full and never stoping until completely knocked down, and piccolo has always fought defensively while conserving stamina yet giving back just as much as he took in terms of a beatdown. With this new form, it seems like, he no longer has to focus on defending and can focus fully on attacking. The best transformation for the most defensive fighter, a form that focuses on defense and durability so you can just keep attacking while not getting easily tired, I love it. With this transformation, piccolo can without question outlast his opponents. I don't know exactly about outmatching Goku's true ultra instinct, but I know one thing, piccolo WILL outlast him and can most definitely beat Goku, since Goku still has rapid stamina loss when using that form, piccolo would only have to bid his time, which is something he naturally does already. Between the three transformations, I'd choose orange piccolo's over the other two, as long as you can stay in that form, your defense just keeps rising and you don't even need to take damage to make it stronger. My opponent might be stronger than me, but as long as they aren't androids with infinite stamina, I know I can win, just have to outlast them, which is made easier by having an ability that will make me more durable as time passes so I can conserve energy and stamina, turning myself into a very effective juggernaut tank, enough said.
The only complaint I have about the situation is that Dende was just like "Oh yeah sure let me just upgrade the dragon with this water I had laying around" instead of it being something he had been working on and finally had a reason to use. A couple of different lines could have made that feel much less hand-wavy
I agree actually. I didn't mind it that it was on-the-spot, Dragon Ball usually does that sort of stuff, but it would've been more interesting if Dende had planned on upgrading the dragon balls for some time and this was the perfect opportunity to actually do it.
@@InnovativeJdawg Right? A line of "Since Bulma's been wasting her wishes I haven't bothered, but for you I'll do this"
I like how Dragon Piccolo kinda emulates Porunga's look with his huge buff size
Vegeta: your just mad your not the legendary super Namekian...
*Piccolo turns orange*
Piccolo: you say something?
Vegeta while falling: fuuuuuuu......
Next we will have Piccolo Brick form, or Brickolo as it were.
Brickolo one shots everybody
Piccolo is already a huge powerhouse with this form, imagine if he absorbed the two nameks from the tournament of power? He'd be unstoppable
@@shandellskeete3891 why tf would he do that he has no connection to them
I want to know why his arms are a different shade of orange compared to the rest of his body. It is even stranger as his hands are the same color as his body, but the arms alone are clearly darker.
That bothered me too actually. I've gotten over it, but the first time I saw Orange Piccolo I definitely rose an eyebrow at the shade of arms
I haven't seen anything after Dragon ball Z. But i hear about all kinds of transformation for the Sayan characters. I personally believe they should always have a character that can keep up with the Sayans. It makes the story more interesting. And Picolo should be that character.
Kinda figured they made piccolo orange was because sometimes pickled pickles turn orange
I can’t help but think of the abridged line “you’re just mad you aren’t the legendary super Namekian.”
Hell yeah, finally a win for Gohan's father
🔥
I would have liked High King Piccolo which would have been a nice call back to his early days in Dragon Ball.
Yeah he’s definitely the orange and red of the dragon balls lol I saw someone ask why not call him dragon piccolo which I think is perfect but you know it had to be more like Barr-u Piccolo then they were like … nah .. nah lol
Dragon Piccolo definitely seems to be a fan-favorite nickname
Should’ve given him more of a focus on Magic instead of Ki so it wouldn’t be just another transformation and no other Z fighter uses magic. It would make so much sense. Give him healing abilities like Dende, creation abilities as Kami, and namekian fighting abilities
I like how the writers did that cause he n Gohan been slept on for so long
Imma call it Solar Piccalo since namekians get their energy the same way as plants. My theory is that his photosynthesis process was multiplied overflowing him with solar energy making him orange. Kinda like escanor
Piccolo is ghoans real dad😌💯❤️
It's pretty simple and obvious to me. A cucumber will turn orange when ripe. Being picked however, he needed some help from Shenron to ripen up (unlock his latent power).
His form makes sense its just how they did it lmao the explanation in the movie is amazing and makes plenty sense down to the look.
I do think this form had more explanation behind it than Gohan Beast did, but it wasn't really expanded upon too much. It was basically just Shenron going "oh here you go" and Piccolo going "cool"
Now it's Yamcha's turn. Let's go!
Great video
Thank you!
"I'll just wish to be stronger. Boy, could have used that fighting Cell the first time, but I just didn't think of it."
Ultimate Piccolo is scales to Goku ssj Blue level and Orange Piccolo is around on Par with UI Goku.
Plus Orange Piccolo form represents his Namekian Culture.
Wow the names are sooo unique
And in the freezer sock out we're going to be introduced to purple piccolo and black pickle.
Gives piccolo his flowers. He is the best dad and grandpa 😂😂💪🏾
Someone tell me where I can stream this movie? I can’t find it anywhere to buy or stream.
Do this is why I was always told to drink my orange juice
Wasn't there an interview where Toriyama or someone said that Orange Piccolo was basically the Elder Kai Unlocking compared to the Elder Guru Unlocking of his first form?
All that's left is the 3 humans to get Shenron to give them their retroactive Zenkais.
God what a beautiful day that'd be.
Piccolo did it for Pan and Gohan, timeline 5:15 - 5:30 because he understand that hat family is now.
YES! YES!! YOU CAN WIN!!!!!! YOU FEEL GREAT!!!!!!!! YOU. CAN. DO. *THIS!!!!!!!!!!!*
