Well, he really improved alot…Remember when Buggy locked Luffy in a cage...Zoro couldnt cut the bars because the bars were too concrete...Now, he can cut anything.

no he cant he can only cut steel and materials that are weaker than steel,
he couldnt for example cut diamond.

Iron is harder than Steel, right?

Being a sword lover, I was quite interested in Zoro when I first started reading One Piece. Also, if there's one thing I love in a series is something different and original, and Zoro is just that. He uses a unique fighting style which makes him stand apart from other manga heroes. And as a character, he remindes me more so of Piccolo, one of my favourite DBZ characters. He's the dark badass but with a heart in the right place, which automatically makes him (and Piccolo) better than the likes of Vegeta and Sasuke who I frankly find annoying at times. Zoro seems to want to puthimself out to save his friends, and feels guilty if harm comes to them, especally if he could stop it (i.e. when he argued with Sanji about who should save Luffy from water and feeling bad about letting Ussop get "killed").
And like Luffy he has a hard goal that's going to take alot to reach, and he has his reasons to do so. He promised someone close to him that he would do it, and only the Grim Reaper himself can stop him. I will admit that his goal is a bit cliche (same with Luffy), but the determination of the character, the lengths he goes to to ensure he reaches it means it doesn't really matter if the concept is over used (least in my eyes anyway).
I will admit that I like Luffy more than Zoro. I'm not really sure why but there's something about Luffy that makes him an excellent character in my eyes, but I still like Zoro alot.

as i explained a couple of posts above he cant cut any substance harder than steel at the moment and it would give him no egde against mihawk since he also knows that move and hes probably alot better at using it.
-
Being able to cut certain material isn´t enough to beat Mihawk. It´s not like Zoro got owned by a little toy because he didn´t know how to cut steal. He got owned because his skilled sucked IN COMPARISON TO MIHAWK.
Other then that, I wonder if there really are substances that Zoro can´t cut yet. I mean, it´s not that Zoro just learned how to cut steel during his fight with Mr. 1, he actually learned to sense the breath of all things. So it is debatable whether diamonds fall into that category or not. I think they do, but I gladly listen to other theories.
-
I agree with that "breath of all things" argument. It's like how a bony guy like Bruce Lee could KO a man twice his size, he just knows how to strike.
-
Perhaps this topic should be called 'will Zoro ever beat Mihawk?'
Although, no-one's considered the possibility of a draw, at least not thoroughly.
I mean, if Zoro faced Mihawk again now it would be about equal I think. Mihawk may be a little stronger physically, but Zoro has a stronger drive to win. Sometimes people can win out of sheer determination.
-
Maybe, but I still think that Zoro has a long way before him. It is doubtless though, that he'll become much stronger after he defeats CP9 along with others.
Btw, Pirate-Hunter-Arrow where'd you get that pic in your avatar? I really like it. -
I got a pic of Nami from the Eneru saga thing and edited it to look like Arrow (o.c)
-
Cool. :D
-
Oh, BTW just call me Arrow okay? I know it's a bother to type the whole thing cuz I'm sick of it meself.
-
'Kay. Then Arrow it is.

[snapback]78120[/snapback]Steel is harder than iron, iron is a component of steel(steel is an alloy composed of carbon n iron)
I think Zoro's one of the coolest sword users out there, his Santouryu is unique, havent seen anybody else use three swords like him.
I dont think he can beat Mihawk right now, sure he can cut steel and has improved a lot,
but we dont know if Mihawk's black Sword is even made of steel n we havent seen Mihawk's moves yet. -

I just thought of another reason why I like Zoro. Well, I kinda sleep a lot, just like Zoro does. You could say that I sympathize with him. :P
-
Well, Zoro is kinda cool, I think. I just couldn't think how Oda-sensei could have create this character: Green hair, 3-swords style, but it come out to be cool. I like Zoro as well (even the like's less than what I have for Sanji :P ). Zoro is real cool, sometime he's real fun, sometime really serious-looking. Zoro is an amazing character and a lot of his speech is real cool. :D
-
Sanji Says: Totally overrated!
I say: Sexy, courageous, committed and surprisingly fun.
Sanji says: Fangirls. Look at me! You don't want him. He's not into living ladies…
dodges swordswipe Hey! You're getting your own dinner tonight mate! -
These last few days, I was thinking about things we know about Zoro's past, and his time as a bounty hunter. The thing that bothers me is what was he doing after he left Kuina's village? OK, so we know he was a bounty hunter, but how did he get his bad rep? He must have beaten some very strong pirates (maybe some of them were DF users) that he became so famous. Hell, he must have done some pretty nasty things to them if it even got Crocodile hooked. If you ask me, after Robin, Zoro is probably the most mysterious Straw Hat crewmember.
-
Yep, that's way I love him :wub:
Ahem… anyway... between the instant he left his training village, and meeting Luffy... he becomes a bounty hunter and achieves his famous reputation, the fame gets him involved with Baroque Works and we all know what happened... then he meets up Yusaku and Johnny... (wonder if it was before or after meeting the BW agent...).
Yep... he's just darn interesting and mysterious XD
PS. And probably he slept a great deal too :D -
Imagine now he says that the cps wanted him to join as wellXD

Luffy, Robin and zoro are the most mysterious members so far. After this arc it probaley be zoro.

OMG XD
Everyone wants him…
Z: You know, I was contacted by the World Government to make part of your pathetic (he would say that, not me :P) team... but I refused, I don't want to work for that kind of people... snicker Plus, they turned down my offer to become head of the CP...
Oh goodness... I'm imagining him instead of Crocodile with that coat XD -
zoro with the coat…. .coooooooooooooooooooooooooool
andthe evil laugh AH-AH-AH-Ah-Ahh -
Him doing his evil laugh… priceless XD
Anyway, to keep to the discussion, yeps, I really hope Oda reveals something more about his past... (even to make me happy :D) -
@Green:

Heh, I've just noticed the irony of this sentence.

Yeah :P Prolly it was him who cut Croc's hand…
LOL Kidding :P -
Ussop will obviously be fighting Kaku. Story demands trump power levels I'm afraid. Zoro will obvious be fighting Kumadori because he ALWAYS fights the swordsmen. I'm actually pretty suprised anyone who's been into OP for any length of time could come to any other conclusion.
OK, this post made me think of something. Will his fight against CP9 really include someone with a sword (Kaku, Spandam)? Or is he gonna face off against Jyabura, since he's the second strongest? Just how many "real" swordsmen did he fight during the storyline? Watch this:
- captain Morgan: an axe-shaped hand
- Buggy: DF power, knives
- Cabaji: sword
- Nyaban brothers: strength, agility, claws
- Mihawk: sword
- Hatchan: swords
- Arlong: strength
- Tashigi: sword
- Mr. 9: baseball clubs
- Ms. Wednesday (Vivi): peacock slashers
- Mr. 8 (Igaram): guns
- Ms. Monday: strength
- Luffy: DF power
- Mr. 5: DF power, gun
- Ms. Valentine: DF power
- Mr. 1: DF power ("swords")
- Braham: guns
- Ohm: "sword"
- Eneru: DF power, staff
- Pickles/Hamburg/Big Pan: strength
- Ao Kiji: DF power
- Kaku: rokushiki, tools
- Lucci: DF power, rokushiki
- captain T-Bone: sword
Hm, by my count, I'd say five. It's arguable whether Mr. 1 and Ohm should be considered as real swordsmen. Even Zoro mocked Mr. 1 and told him he's not a swordsman, but rather a poser with his powers. Still, it could be said that in main fights, Zoro usually faces off against swordsmen (more or less). I don't know, I'll stick to the Jyabura option, simply 'cause the Lucci/Jyabura rivalry indicates that he'd be too much of a challenge for anyone else, while Kaku seemed to rely more on his athletic abilities and agility, and with that should pose more than enough of a threat for Sanji.
