wat

This morning's Toonzai on the CW4Kids broadcast of DragonBall Z Kai had a very interesting edit... While one can understand why he was changed (you know, black face and all), but one would have to question the length. I'd imagine changing the colour of his lips would suffice, but hey, I'm not broadcast standards at the CW.

No. Although I do believe they thinned his lips out a bit.

That's like super blue. Doesn't match the coloring for the rest of the show. He looks so strange.

They don't even try to make it subtle. I'd imagine they'd choose a darker blue, but he's fucking bright blue. :lol

it looks like an overlapping color edit. Couldn't have been an appealing blue, just a solid, burn-through-your-eyes blue.

Honestly, as a black male, I don't find this offensive at all. I think Popo looked funny. Atleast he's not shucking and jiving for Kami. Then I'd rage.

Though he may not appear to physically age, Mr. Popo is very old; having served Kami, the Guardian of Earth for hundreds of years, he also served Kami's predecessor, as well as every other guardian of the Earth in the past.Being the loyal and faithful servant that he is, his purpose consists mainly of tending to Kami’s Palace, keeping the Lookout clean, helping to reconstruct Shenron if needed, and most importantly, taking care of Kami. He also tends to the ancient butterfly garden that he planted thousands of years ago, and enjoys the more simple things in life. While Funimation’s English dubbed Mr. Popo speaks complete, highly sophisticated sentences, the Japanese version proves him to be a seemingly primitive figure. His grasp of the common tongue is less than the English-dubbed version makes it out to be, and in addition, the Japanese version has him commonly referring to himself in the third person,
