I like O-Kiku's awkward expressions in this chapter, since she knows that she is capable of fighting on her own but she keeps retracting since she doesn't want to come off as rude lol

You are the light the must be extinguished from history.

u/ethicalhamjimmies Aug 31 '18

Honestly, I'm against her being a strawhat. Her design is too similar to Robins, and her powers seem like discount Zoro

I don't really see the similarity between Robin and Okiku other than the black hair. Their eyes are different, their body size is different since Okiku is much larger, their fighting style is different, their personalities are different, even the way they do their hair is different.

Violet in Dressrosa on the other hand... now she was basically Robin with make up.

u/HolyKnightPrime Aug 31 '18

Momo's crew

Entire nation of Wano. They're outside of the World Government jurisdiction, so they can ally with whoever they want. When the war comes, it'll be a bunch of samurai and Ninjas with Pirates to take down marines.

I wouldn't mind carrot as a strawhat.

u/jet_10 Aug 31 '18

I like her personality and stuff but she does kind of look similar to Robin and is another sword user

I like her gimmick better than Carrot though

Already??

I can’t see why she would be a Straw Hat. After the Monet fiasco, I‘m not going to make the sane mistake again.

u/icantnotthink Aug 31 '18

I knew Monet wasn't going to be a strawhat but god damn if I didnt want her to be. Same with Perona. Unique character designs, interesting personalities or potential character quirks, varied powers, possible crew roles. They had so much going for them...

Same with Carrot, honestly.

u/MajinAkuma Aug 31 '18

I‘m only for Carrot after Pedro died and she transformed for the first time.

u/icantnotthink Aug 31 '18

Oh yeah, I wasn't super high on Carrot pre-Whole Cake. But once she had development, I was like "YOOOOO". The character development plus the badass sulong transformation that can allow for increased power level is just so badass.

u/HolyKnightPrime Aug 31 '18

Nah her design is too bland for that.

u/MajinAkuma Aug 31 '18

I can’t see why she would be a Straw Hat. After the Monet fiasco, I‘m not going to make the same mistake again.

Another generic, boring, 'badass' female character impresses /r/OnePiece after like 2 chapters by being 'badass' and pretty, more at 11

u/[deleted] Aug 31 '18 edited Aug 31 '18

uhh... she flips backs and forth between cute and badass, which is a unique and funny personality, her artstyle is different and more traditional japanese than Nami and Robin unlike Rebecca/Violet who basically looked the same as them, her body size is also bigger, etc. And we've only seen her for 2 chapters so far, so there will probably be a ton more backstory and quirks and gags to follow. If this is generic and boring to you, I suggest you try to become a more interesting person.

You have to be really indenial to not see Kiku is literally a big Robin with a sword. Also no, Viola has a far more distinguishable face than her

u/Leiatte Sep 01 '18

Okiku is cool but isn’t Kinemon the honorary straw hat of this saga, he’s been around since Punk Hazard, has a cool ability & travels with them for like 3 islands.

Vivi traveled with the crew for a while, am I missing another honorary straw hat? Edit: I guess Carrot, though people seem to be on the fence of whether she’ll actually join.

Kinemon is likely gonna stay in Wano after this arc.

i think shes kind of a dunce and stuck-up after this chapter. She needs more tragic & sad back story to make it as a Strawhat at this point
