There are still animal people in DBZ and subsequent series. A couple of them are even recurring characters and part of the story. wtf?

Beerus is a cosmic demigod not native to Earth. Idk if he counts as an "Animal Person" in the same way as Oolong or the Pilaf Gang's Shu. That said, both continue to exist in Z, GT, and Super as minor supporters/antagonists.

Incidentally, in interviews, Toriyama admits he forgot about the animal people between DB and DBZ for the most part. But mainline characters still show up from time to time.

I always thought the other animal people were just aliens, too. I mean, most of the cast are aliens. Almost all the villains are aliens. There is space travel. For all we know, the main planet of the show is entirely populated with aliens. 🤷‍♂️

Those would be aliens, not people like the animals on earth.

Beerus is also a god.
