Reading that post just made me depressed.
Nami = 50% of the OP experience ^_^Lol good post x5dragon.
Also an interesting discussion about Luffy wanting 10 crewmates:Crew Numbers
The members of the Straw Hat Pirates as they appeared during their introductions. Excluding Luffy, as he founded the crew, the numbers given to each crew member are:
Usually when numbering the crew on color spreads however, Oda will include Luffy as #1 thus the crew members get +1 added onto their numbers. For most of the crew members, Oda designates their number in the title of the chapter in which they join. For some like Nami and Usopp, their numbers were designated after they returned to the crew for previously leaving it. Only Chopper and Robin so far have no chapters whose titles designate them. In the case of Robin, though she has yet to have a number chapter, she however was numbered as the 7th one in the anime. This however refers to her being the 7th character in the crew which includes Luffy.
I was expecting some semblances of Character Development. Having a Caricature parading through adventures and stories without ever making any real decision that matters is just not entertaining to me. Some people like Soap Operas, I don't. Even Power Rangers has character development so saying "he knows OP is for teenagers" is odd to say, since Character Development is not only for adults.Wtf... What were you expecting? One of the main reasons why Oda is so beloved is because he knows his audience and his crafts' limits.
That is literally the opposite of growth.Just read the manga and you will see how the characters actually grow without changing their personalities.
I never understood why this would make any sense. I mean, Zoro has Haki... Which lets him completely bypass any DF-given defenses... The diamond body would add no protection in close combat. It might however completely stop Zoros long range attacks. That's not worth it in my opinion.1. Diamond Jozu will have his devil fruit taken by Shiryu, who will then become Zoro's designated rival in the eventual "Straw Hats vs Blackbeard pirates battle". Zoro will beat Shiryu by cutting through diamond with a sword. (LOL)
It does have CD(lets abreviate). However, it is really minute in Luffys case. Who just happens to be the main character. So you might not notice it a lot. My fellow OP-tarts can vouch for me when i say that most minor and main characters grow over the course of the series. Let's use an example in Crocodile. He is the first villain that completely overpowered Luffy(after the Chopper arc). He at first was a cold, sadistic, arrogant and cruel monster. However by the end of the first half he changed quite a bit. Enough to actually be noticeable(which is why im using him as an example). Unlike most others who grow but you kind of don't realize it because of the length of the manga. Anyways, Crocodile remained arrogant but lost most of his other traits that made him a "villain" earlier in the series. It was accomplished by Luffy beating the crap out of him and destroying his dream(Oda considers that to be a bigger punishment than death, which is why he hates and rarely kills), rotting in jail and then saved from jail by Luffy. Seeing Luffy in his most desperate moments touched even this monsters heart and by the end of the first half he basically threw his life away to save Luffy(fellow OP-tarts: when he stepped up against Akainu, which = death). He became a likeable character and an ally of Luffy.I was expecting some semblances of Character Development.

I meant that mostly about Luffy. Other characters grow and sometimes their personalities change for the better. Luffy on the other hand is different. This guy has remained pretty much the same throught the entire manga. Or his personality has. Same with Zoro and Sanji. The reason for that is that they are just badasses. They have cried several times, however these guys bleed the word tough. They have grown up in terrible environments, usually life and death their whole lives. These 3 are not some green characters that are oblivious towards the cruelty of the world. They are battle hardened monsters. They may not know much of anything, fatcs, places, customs etc but they are very hard headed thanks to their tough childhoods. Which makes changing their personalities pretty hard without being completely dumb.That is literally the opposite of growth.
The explanation part is what I said, the theory part is that Chopper / Robin might end up leaving the crew / dying.Aldaron.. how is that a theory? I mean where is the theory part in that? I mean, as we all know, Odas planning is unheard of so it is obvious they will get their own numbered chapters.
We actually don't know exactly how armament haki works. Most people assume that armament haki allows you to hit a df user's true body (because rayleigh said so), but what happens when a df user uses armament haki himself? We've already seen wb use armamanet haki enforced attacks and stab Aokiji and Kizaru, and they were seemingly unharmed. It obviously isn't only a 1 way thing (as in armament haki is 100% a way to remove the df effects), it seems to work both ways, as in a df user can use haki to to defend against haki.I never understood why this would make any sense. I mean, Zoro has Haki... Which lets him completely bypass any DF-given defenses... The diamond body would add no protection in close combat. It might however completely stop Zoros long range attacks. That's not worth it in my opinion.
at the moment law revealed that he could switch hearts at punk hazard i figured that law had his heart switched by the real law. so once vergo came in appearance its seems like he could be the real law, while law is really vergo.Also, there is a theory that involves around Virgo's mysterious ability. Hamburger steak doesn't get stuck on someone's face just like that. Add the fact that Law was unable to stand up from the presence, and he immediately felt the force on his knees. Vergo could be translated as 'bowing down to someone', or Virgo could be translated as 'gravitational tool'. I'm pretty convinced.
Acenobody dies in one piece
Ace, Bellamy, and Whitebeard are the only three characters to die in One Piece -- though I'm probably forgetting one important one.nobody dies in one piece
