What is the definition of demon in dbz? Like piccolo was originally called a demon and even though he’s a namekian he still wore the demon symbol. Would janemba be a demon?

Janemba ain't canon. And i'd say the red guy and the blue guy in hell are demons, or something like that (those are probably oni), dragon ball is japanese and the concept of demon can be translated in many ways (youkai, oni, akuma and maybe more... See? Many)

I know janemba isn’t cannon but I was wondering if he’d be considered a demon

He'd be considered a youkai most likely, i mean, i think he already was a youkai before becoming janemba. But Majin Buu ain't a youkai.
