The anime probably wanted it that way for kids?? (For whatever reason, of course.)

Did the manga do that to Piccolo? I actually think I remember something like that. Early on he had four fingers - later in the series he has five.

The resident GT fan!

The animators propably thought 4 fingers should be censored in a way perhaps for the kids like Prof said, plus it doesn't make any real difference at the end of the road.

They may not have even realized it at the time. I mean five fingers is so natural that you don't even realize it until you take a closer look. I mean in the same vein as Imperfect Cell who only had 3 fingers. It also could just be that, drawing fingers is easier and I'm sure it has nothing to do with censorship which would just be strange.

For example as I mentioned, there's Piccolo's 4 fingers, Cell's 3 fingers, Majin Boo's glove-like hand in his Pre-Gotenks Boo form, etc.

He had 5 fingers at a point in the manga aswell. I guess they have a number of fingers based on how important they are at the time.

I wanted to prove that he had 5 fingers in the manga at ONE point, not that he didn't have four fingers in the manga :)

IIRC that was actually remarked by Toriyama with the whole 5 fingers incident with King Piccolo. I can't recall for sure though.

The 5 fingers thing in the manga was a gag, to fit what Piccolo said. You can even see the little note below it pointing it out.

If not a gag then just a minor inconsistency.

I can still it being a deal for kids though. They alter stuff for the smallest/stupidest reasons sometimes.
