Kame dogi inconsistency
So in the long list of Dragon Ball art inconsistencies, I don't think I've seen this one brought up before:
When the Kame dogi was first used in the manga, Toriyama made it to be a 2-piece uniform as shown in chapters 33 and 41:
But then in chapter 52 we see Goku changes to Kuririn's dogi and now it looks like a 1-piece jumpsuit and it seems it stays this way as we see further ahead at chapter 98 at the tailor's shop:
Also checked chapter 134 to see how it was after the timeskip but couldn't get a clear look at it, but the way Goku puts it on I guess it's a 2-piece now:
And of course, once the characters reached adulthood the dogi was a 2-piece uniform like how it started.

Re: Kame dogi inconsistency
It’s an inconsistency. But I guess this one can be explained as “Krillin’s outfit was a 1 piece, while Goku’s was 2 for some strange reason” and it wouldn’t break any logic.

Re: Kame dogi inconsistency
I was considering that possibility, but I asked myself "Why would Muten Roshi bother making it like that instead of two identical outifts?"

Who knows. He probably bought them, right? Maybe making a one piece was cheaper, or maybe Roshi just felt like it.SHINOBI-03 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 09, 2020 3:10 pmI was considering that possibility, but I asked myself "Why would Muten Roshi bother making it like that instead of two identical outifts?"
For sure it’s just Toriyama who forgot in that same panel that he had already drawn the dogi as a two pieces. But it’s not like this matters much, though.

Maybe Goku's tail required some extra accomodations and Roshi had to go off model at first?SHINOBI-03 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 09, 2020 3:10 pmI was considering that possibility, but I asked myself "Why would Muten Roshi bother making it like that instead of two identical outifts?"
My opinions suck. You should probably mute me to spare yourself having to see them.

Sexualizes pokemon? UNIVERSAL PRAISE." - Plague of Gripes

Look at that first image again: he knew the one piece could never hold a gut of THAT size!SHINOBI-03 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 09, 2020 3:10 pmI was considering that possibility, but I asked myself "Why would Muten Roshi bother making it like that instead of two identical outifts?"
