As a black guy, I like the art on a rendering standpoint, but it doesn't embrace Toriyama's depiction of Africans. I have a personal rule, if you are imitating an artist's style, you gotta embrace all of it, not 90%. I also wanna say, what would the consequence of race changing be? If you make the leads of the Dragon Ball series African, then you're probably gonna have to look at Africans in Chinese/Japanese folklore, or the sayain race being hated/feared savages(Then again, makes sense for some continental sections of Africa) so in all that's the consequence. To go above and beyond visually would be to add folklore element like capoeira/samba fighters , or make everyone wear their dashi fighting garbs, or look like senegalise wrestlers. Just looking at Goten is like looking at a borderline pallete swap with braided twists
