How did we as kids know that Piccolo was black?

[RamsayBolton]

Seems damn near unanimous that he's black (he is ), but I have no idea how little-me was able to reach this conclusion.

The real namekians were black. The green namekians stole our history because they control the anime media. Also, the destruction of planet namek is a lie made up by the green namekian media. Freiza was actually a friend of black namekians. He understood that we are the Supreme Kai's chosen people.

I remember being told as a kid by other kids that Namekians were supposed to be black don't know where they got it from

You see it too, huh? All he was missing was "We Wuz Kangs"or "Dindu"

 

[Sterling Archer]

Dudes will claim saiyans were black one day, then Namekians the next. Newsflash, they had black people in DBZ and they weren’t cool characters, get over it.

Guess I'll be the lame one and say that I didn't, just saw him as a cool character.

 

[Vandelay]

Because he looks like a green Michael Jordan...
