Appearance:
Piccolo is one of the few major characters in the series whose appearance does not drastically change as the series continues. Being from another planet called Namek, Piccolo appears as a typical Namekian: green-skinned, tall, and hairless. The only major difference between his original appearance in the manga and his appearance in the anime is that in the manga he has four fingers on each hand while in the anime he has five fingers.
Abilities:
Piccolo has shown many unique abilities throughout the series. Due to his Namekian physiology, Piccolo can expand his arms,move fast enough to be seen regenerate lost limbs of his body so long as his head is still intact,and possesses superhuman hearing and strength. Piccolo's ChÅkyoshinjutsue , "Super Giantification Spell" in Viz media) Super Large Body Techniqu allows him to become gigantic to the point where he is capable of reaching mountain-like heights, though it is unclear if these are his restrictions.
