Editing King Piccolo (section)

==Appearance==
When King Piccolo is introduced in ''Dragon Ball'' chapter 135, "The Death of Kuririn," he is depicted as a formidable and strange-looking divine creature with a goblin-like appearance. His design features pointy ears, fangs, and a menacing demeanor. This appearance was intended to highlight his otherworldly and demonic nature. King Piccolo's visual design shares a striking resemblance to Kami, his good counterpart, with the only significant difference being their clothing. Kami's outfit is a palette swap of King Piccolo's robe, reflecting their shared origins as a single entity before the split into good and evil halves.

'''Design'''

*'''Initial Appearance:''' King Piccolo is introduced as an aged, tall, and imposing figure, standing over eight feet tall, making him one of the largest villains in the original ''Dragon Ball'' series. His size and height are notable, as he towers over all his opponents, including Master Mutaito, Master Roshi, Tien Shinhan, and even Goku.
*'''Clothing:''' Initially, King Piccolo is shown wearing a black robe with his own kanji, a red cape, and brown lightweight footwear. Beneath the robe, he wears an indigo Asian martial arts uniform with a light purple obi. This outfit is later revealed to be Namekian clothing with demon symbols, distinguishing it from martial arts attire. His kanji symbolizes his role as the opposite of Kami.
*'''Comparison with Kami:''' Kami, King Piccolo's good counterpart, shares a nearly identical appearance, including the same facial features and body structure. In a flashback, Kami is seen wearing a similar dark gi, but with his own kanji, further emphasizing their connection.

'''Size and Height:'''

*'''Tallest Villain:''' King Piccolo's size and height are unique among Namekians and are not fully explored in the series. Most Namekians, including Kami and Nail, are shown to be the size of normal humans. King Piccolo's immense size could be attributed to his demonic origins, which may have resulted in a larger and more robust form.
*'''Possible Control Over Size:''' It's suggested that Namekians might have some control over their size at will, as seen with other characters like [[Guru]], who also has a massive size.

'''Combat and Weighted Robe:'''

*'''Weighted Robe:''' During his battle with Goku, King Piccolo removes his robe for better performance, revealing that it may be weighted, similar to Piccolo Jr.'s cape. After removing the robe, King Piccolo nearly kills Goku with powerful blasts and even temporarily stops his heart, demonstrating his immense power and strength.
