I swear Togashi capitalized big time when Shonen Jump was in their dark ages point in the late 90s after the Golden trio(Yu Yu Hakusho, Dragonball, Slam Dunk) ended serialization one after the other & they were in dire need of hit series. I heard Jump almost was about to go bankrupt during that era and the deal Togashi made back then is the reason why HxH can take very long hiatuses without the fear of jump dropping the series.

, also super saiyan 4 was based off some Japanese performers who wear wigs according to the guy who “created it”, either way it's naive to think Toriyama had no input when you can clearly see the historical elements in the original anime and manga, hes just humble
is that just another coincidence? And of course he was giving gold and purple Freezer the hands, what continent you know that has gold and purple tied to it for royalty? Lol but im sure that another coincidence? Right? Piccolo homeland is and design is CLEARLY inspired by the moors and other African tribes
