Being a single dad of 7 wouldn't be easy for him XD

Have you ever drawn Brolly? Or maybe other saiyans as Bardock, Nappa or King Vegeta hmm? Just was interested how'd they look in your style

Adore your works a lot! Thanks for sharing them

i actually had broly on the mind just earlier today and this ask gave me the strength i needed to finish this

further answer: i've drawn bardock and nappa once each (both 2023) but the bardock one's deleted because i disliked it, and nappa is in this post right here! my art was much more stylized then so i'd probably draw him differently today

Bardock reminds me of those tiger fathers who see their cubs once every five weeks just to feed them and then you find him like this:

thinking about gohan and vegeta and how their bond is underrated

the difference in their reactions to each other 😭

Gohan being the first one to step between Vegeta and Certain Death, twice, without an ounce of hesitation, and Vegeta saving him back despite his feelings about battle intervention.

Vegeta knowing Gohan's the best of all of them

Vegeta and Gohan both born prodigies assigned an unfair amount of responsibility to be Great and be a Saiyan Messiah(tm) way too young by a stubborn and proud if not (relatively) well-meaning father who didn't see any other option and I just think Gohan doesn't get enough credit as like. The first serious muscle behind Geets' personal growth.

Ok, but I love the fact that a Namekians antennae can get all droopy when they feel humiliated, defeated and so forth. Like just the fact their antennae are able to express emotions is something we should see more often.

bc i feel like you can’t repeatedly be thrown into life or death situations and NOT be traumatized

Krillin 😼😼😼

[genisflyingkites]

Scenes that fuck me up from kakarot she really said your trauma is just beginning 😭

I love little moments in the series that acknowledge gohans very hard life like this

[fabuloustrash05]

I love that to most of the characters in the Dragon Ball universe, Bulma is canonically seen as more terrifying than Vegeta.

As a character one of Piccolo's strongest values is and has always been family despite that never being addressed explicitly. His desire for a family, a place to belong, drives him even before he realizes he wants it. He grew up isolated from others with only the memory of his father urging him toward destruction, and despite being noncanon the filler bits of OGDB depicting his childhood only emphasize this (seriously though I could write an essay about the episode where he finds the family having a birthday party. I dont care if it's "noncanon" it's fucking heartbreaking). I think this is best illustrated by the contrast between OGDB and Super, where in OGDB he's isolated and destructive, always on the outside and viewed as a monster (the monster his father wanted him to be, the only approval he ever got for years was a dead man's wish for him to become a monster) in Super he's actively part of a family unit- he's heavily involved in the Son/Satan families' lives and despite putting on a show of grouchiness he clearly places a high value on his place in their dynamic.

Of course the road to this wasn't perfect, his early friendship/mentorship with Gohan is a clear replication of his own traumatic childhood. "It made me strong, so it'll make you strong too" beliefs which were directly harmful (this is the real reason he's Gohan's second dad, he literally gives the kid generational trauma).

If my thoughts were more organized I might start a tangent about how his apparent general distance from Gohan in the Buu saga could have been an attempt to rectify that mistake by distancing himself, before ultimately apologizing and making a concerted effort to be better resulting in them being close again in Super but at that point I might as well be writing fanfiction.

In any case I fully believe family is one of Piccolo's strongest character motivations whether he acknowledges it or not.

Thank you for coming to my TEDtalk

Quick sketch after @serenityhime1 picked “draw something that makes you happy” in my ask game. I don’t usually draw Vegebul in a realistic way but I had fun doing this. It might be the beginning of a new drawing phase 🤔

Group drop of my Android 17 x Piccolo art cause this ship has had a death grip on me since I watched their fight on Toonmai growing up

I love them your honor
