>Sega whitewashed a dude in the past
Also, I don't care what anyone says; Sega's graph paper box art is always funny.

Is that Shamino? It really looks like he's about to backstab the ABATAB

That was before dragon ball was remotely popular on west tho.

Publishers and localizers do, thinking they know better, they don't, if they did they would be the ones making the content not funding it.
