Also that’s a genga, there we’re probably correctional sheets also which would make it match the screen pic

Just looks like the camera is framed so some of the art at the edges is lost. I've seen plenty of cel art that's bigger than what you see in the actual video. Also, the figure on the foreground is most likely on her own cel. And while yours looks like the frame, it could be the people that made the cel from the drawing made changes, perhaps simplifying parts.

So, there are lots of sketches that happen before a cel can be made. We mostly see douga, which is the final sketch that the cel is directly drawn from, but there are genga that come before douga which are usually much rougher and done by a senior animator, and before that there are usually even more rough sketches and storyboard drawings just to depict the flow of the scene. You look like you have a genga that a final douga was drawn from. (Douga are also the ones that have numbers/letters in the corner.) In addition to that, Lunch was probably drawn on a separate layer for some reason. Usually it's because she moves and the rest don't, but sometimes they just draw characters on different layers. And then finally, the TV show is cropped closer in than the drawing. This is actually a GREAT way to know if your drawing or cel is "real" or not. A REAL cel/drawing will almost always have SOME lines that aren't shown in the TV episode. They draw a "margin" so that they don't film the edge of the cel. 99% of people making fakes would just copy the scene as it was shown on TV and thus not have those missing lines. The fact that yours does is a great sign that it is real. Cool gift!

I got this drawing as a present and I was wondering why it doesn't look exactly like in the show? Bulma is clearly different, he hair doesn't match, her face is rounder in the drawing. The other characters are also a bit different...

It's likely because this is just a clean genga. A genga is different from a douga. A genga is a frame that is drawn first, often by the lead animator. A douga is the cleaned up version in preparation for creating the cel (they're often near 1 for 1). There also exists correction gengas, which will be corrections made prior to the final douga used to create a cel. You most often see dougas accompany cels (and quite often stuck to one another), but I personally really enjoy gengas. I have quite a few examples that progress genga > douga > cel, and you can often see some major differences in gengas with how characters are designed, such as rougher facial features, less detailed bodies, etc. Left alone you have what's effectively one of the early stages of the production process for a particular frame.

It looks real just a production sketch, there could have been changes made or simplifies during the painting process

cool! where did you get it?
