Though the item is often overlook , the only cause the Androids had any cognition of Earth ’s scrapper is because Toriyama decided to publish in a midget ladybug - corresponding spying equipment that followed Goku through his every battle .
Of course , the gadget was never actually featured in the story prior to its reveal , much like Arinsu was not in the beginning boast in the Buu Saga .
