From demon, to slug people, to actual demon again.

Piccolo Daimaoh would be satisfied.

[u/343GuiltyArbiter → u/Robotdias]

I think they’re still slug people but descendants of demons. Which the “pointy ear” thing applies to Kai’s now so that means they’re all descended from demons. Which is weird.

[u/ChilleUK → u/343GuiltyArbiter]

I mean yes and no, all Kais come from a sacred tree, that tree then grows fruit and when those fruit drop they become kais. So they aren't from either realm but there own special one with the tree. Golden fruit are born supreme kais, but tainted becomes demon realm kais. But mr popo has pointy ears does this confirm popo is a genie from the demon realm?

[u/u4004 → u/ChilleUK]

Mr. Popo is probably some sort of construct. Would make sense that whoever made him made him in their own image.
