Oh, I never knew that. Yes, I know Pokemon, but never got into it. Thanks for explaining.

Bah this is what I get for thinking too much XD, I havn't played Pokemon in years, last one was on Gameboy Color with Silver. Yeah thats sounds more like the truth, after I posted it, I couldn't think of a single instance where that was true in my head XD whoops.
just checked to see who's the latest subject on the latest crew debates…. Mr. Mime?
Nothing really to debate right now….
To sum up, the only two possible candidates at the moment are Jinbei and Hancock. Neither are likely to join but Jimbei has twice as much chance to join than Hancock.
Anyone who thinks Perona will join should be IP banned with AGOG come Fisherman's Island.
FUCK PERONA!!
It's all about that Mr. Mime…
This thread is impressed me.

Hmm… You have a real good argument to back that up, so how could you be wrong? Very strong motive. Congratulations.
Your argument basically revolves around the concept that the thing we predict will happen on Fishman Island (if Jinbei joins) hasn't happened yet. Well, no shit. There's nothing to argue.
As for the strength/protecting thing. It doesn't matter. Jinbei was doing his best to protect Whitebeard, and I don't think anyone would claim that Jinbei was stronger than Whitebeard.
That was just the conclusion part. I was thinking about the main argument, about how it's been Jinbei outshining Luffy all the time and not the opposite. Also, Whitebeard isn't the main character and he has grown old. Even if Jinbei was trying to protect him, he didn't make that much of a difference and his fate would've been the same whether or not Jinbei had stepped in.
I'm confused, are you denying it or do you just find it funny?
I find it funny. When it comes to Jinbei doing his best to defend someone, the comparison between everything he did for Luffy from Impel Down to the war and the one time we saw him protecting WB's back(that being his best) comes to mind and I just laugh out loud when I think about it.
Sentoumaru 4 Nakama.
They need a new scientist/engineer anyway, Franky ain't cuttin' it.
Plus, Roger had some guy with an Axe in his crew. Why can't Luffy have the same?
That was just the conclusion part. I was thinking about the main argument, about how it's been Jinbei outshining Luffy all the time and not the opposite.
Again, most of us have said this is something that would be addressed at FI if he were to join, so I don't really see much of a point, at all. It's not as if Luffy outshined the all the other crew members before the boss fight.
Your argument is basically "the thing you guys think will happen later hasn't happened yet! How do you explain that one? Huh?"
Also, Whitebeard isn't the main character and he has grown old. Even if Jinbei was trying to protect him, he didn't make that much of a difference and his fate would've been the same whether or not Jinbei had stepped in.

I was actually thinking about how he fought Ace to try to keep him away from Whitebeard.
Whether or not he makes a difference is pretty much irrelevant.

Yeah, but Ace is dead now so it doesn't really count to me.
Oh, I see.
Pretty sure this has been brought up and maybe beaten to death but for all the people who say that all those people who thinks Hancock will join is only thinking with their nether parts. And that it's only wishful thinking. "Everything is numbers" + maybe some foreshadowing too .
Franky, Water 7
Brook, Rumba Pirates
"Rumba rhythms employ eighth-notes within the measures, with accents located within the "1&2&3&4&" full-measure count."
Hancock, Kuja Tribe
Literal meaning of Kuja is Nine Snakes. And her first appearance is in the chapter with the cover of all the crew members first appearance.
!
I'm not saying Hancock will definitely join. Only that there is some pretty strong foreshadowing for her to do so.

Yeah it was brought up… And like I said. Nami, Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, Chopper and Robin hasn't any of this "numbers" forshadowing
Usopp had the three kids.
Not that I'm supporting anything but I felt like pointing that much out.
Yeah it was brought up… And like I said. Nami, Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, Chopper and Robin hasn't any of this "numbers" forshadowing
Nami: The pinwheel with the four blades. After she joined she got the tattoo.
Chopper: His horn got 5 branches.
Sanji: Three. ("Ji" which means the second. Second to Zoro )
Not saying that numbers is everything. But Kuja + the cover is a pretty strong foreshadowing no? Hell I wouldn't cry or anything if she doesn't join. All of the characters that Oda has made is very interesting and some of them I would like to see join the strawhats just because it would be downright funny. Like Crocodile or Buggy :wub:.
you can also add my favorite bit of foreshadowing which occurred way back in chapter 97
!
if we can all agree the first picture represents Nico Robin then it follows that the second picture represents the next female crew member….
even if you don't think it is Hancock it sure isn't Perona

But still Nami is OFFICIALLY the 2nd
But still Nami is OFFICIALLY the 2nd
Yeah but she OFFICIALLY joined in Arlong arc. Which by that time Luffy had three members. And your sign pretty much support it .
Also
Zoro: The ONE sword that hasn't/will never break. Kuina's sword. It's the sword he had since his childhood. And the one he will have with him until he become the world's greatest swordsman.

And still she is called the 2nd.
Let's put it this way, officially she's 2nd. Unofficially she's the 4th. And your sign shows me that you also support this ;).
Yeah but she OFFICIALLY joined in Arlong arc. Which by that time Luffy had three members.
Lol. In that case, Usopp OFFICIALLY joined when Franky did. All your "3" foreshadowing just went to shit, since it relies both on him joining after the Kuro arc, AND it relies on the fact that NAMI JOINED FIRST. Oda called Nami the 2nd, which is the only thing we can possibly call "official."
And your sign pretty much support it .
Yeah, his sig goes Sanji > Nami > Usopp > Chopper. Real reliable that.
Like I said plenty of times before… The theories these days are really top notch...

i don't know if that is sarcasm or not, but if not i would have to agree. well i'm not saying top notch as in they are irrefutable or anything, but as in holy crap do you guys find the most insane connections and so many.
reminds me of the movie 23, where like so much can be connected to the number 23 as long as you look at it the certain way.
i don't see hancock joining, but wow some of a lot of these things you guys bring up really makes it seem like she is destined to join. but in manga wise it seems more likely right now that jimbei will.
Wel it was sarcasm. A lot of theories foating around the last moth are really … STRANGE. And most of them are from newbies
Hancock will be the ninth, and Jimbei the last crew member. Simple answer.
@KiShiDo:

Ah I didn't look at it closely. Oops my bad.

That's a good point. But in my mind I always see Nami as the fourth member. I wonder if I'm the only one? But yeah the numbers is a little of a joke. Although recently Franky and Brook's case has been used with it.

You can't say Nami is the 4th if Oda himself said she is the second! Or do you think Usopp joined after Franky?
Wel it was sarcasm. A lot of theories foating around the last moth are really … STRANGE. And most of them are from newbies
How about this, if she ends up not joining I will leave the site. And if she does you will have to use Hancock's avatar for the rest of your duration in this site?;)

Dude steady your horse. I said in my mind I always thought she's the 4th in the crew.

Nami can't possibly be the fourth member. No, you aren't the only one who sees it this way, but I find the idea to be ridiculous. She should be the 2nd because that's what Oda told us she was.
If you wish to think that she joined after the Arlong arc, then you must apply the same logic to Usopp and say that he joined after Enies Lobby. In that case, Nami would be third. That's just playing along with the idea, since I think it's sort of dumb in the first place when Oda clearly tells us otherwise.

No^^ I don't want all of you to leave cuz I want to see the faces from the people who put efforts and theories into the one who doesn't join.
And btw. I find it really funny. Perona and Boa supporters are looking for some super upper cool theories, facts and forshadowing but in the end boring Jinbei without this crazy stuff has still most of the chances.
I haven't seen a super upper monster post with crazy forshadowing and theories about Jinbei so far.
Dude steady your horse. I said in my mind I always thought she's the 4th in the crew.
And Usopp joined after Franky in my mind. So Nami is the 3rd… Damn Oda is doing his own manga wrong and the whole numbers are fucked up now
Nami make the "V" sign with her finger on the first few chapter.
That sign is use two fingers that can the meaning of her being the second crewmember.
And also V means five on Roman numerical. Which mean she officially the fifth member after Arlong Park arc.
This things already posted in few pages ago.
And then, Boa as the ninth and Jimbei as the last. Then lock this thread forever.

Of course. This is the reason why Nami used the VICTORY-sign
Some AGOG-style analysis is worked so well though.
It just blatant numerical symbolism.

Hmm but when she joined Luffy in the beginning, wasn't she thinking more like to use him and ditch him later? True she's starting to see he's a good guy and all but only after the Arlong arc was resolved did she truly become a member of the strawhat. I see Usopp's case a little more different than Nami, he was already a true member of them after he joined in Kuro's arc.
If she doesn't join who cares i will still read and enjoy One Piece from when she was introduced this whole thing has only been an academic and theoretical discussion for me anyway.
I feel still she has the most to offer in terms of story still of any of the usual suspects. Unlike Jinbei, she has an interesting background and also has ties to Fishman Island (through Fisher Tiger) and the Tenryubito.
I'm am sure whichever happens i will still enjoy the story and for me that IS what it is all about
well not sure what the numbers mean to Oda, do they mean joining or just order Luffy met them we dont' know, and i couldn't care. arguing over whether nami is 2 or 4 doesn't really matter to me.
but as for my own thinking on her joining i put it as 2. i think in terms of video games and an RPG game more specifically. Think of your party members in an rpg game. There are lots of times a person may leave your party and come back later, but when i think back i always think well first i got this person, then that person and so on in my party.
and well nami was the 2nd person to join our heroes party in this rpg. she left for a little bit at one point later but later joined up again. same as with usopp, he left much much later, but then again joined up. doesn't change my thinking of when someone askes me who is in the strawhat crew in your video game. I woudl say first you get zoro, then nami, then usopp, then sanji, ect. and thats it for me. Official/Unofficial, true members, using the crew, tag alongs, ulterior motives, ect all mean jack shit to me. She is a true strawhat now, and she came into the picture 2nd. thats all that matters to me. She doesn't leave permanately ever, so I'm not afraid to give her good equipment and level her up as soon as she joins in the game, which is very early, the second person to join right after zoro.
No^^ I don't want all of you to leave cuz I want to see the faces from the people who put efforts and theories into the one who doesn't join.
How about I use an avatar of your choice then? And you use the one I choose. A bet makes things more fun and spicy.

I'm not playing a childs-game with you. And btw you don't get it. Boa or Jinbei. I don't care who of them will join cuz both aren't great characters in my eyes.
But by simple manga pages and without theories Jinbei has the best chances.

I do agree. An arc fighting next to Luffy, a promess to his great brother, Flashbacks, a new arc with Fishmen, the story of the sun pirates…
But flashbacks could also announce Jinbeis death.
Hancock is too much of a Chichi like character to me, felt in love with a retarded hero.
Plus Luffy is gone with Jinbeï...
Jimbie, Hancock or Crocodile…... only three options .... oh plus the option saying none.
Also with Nami being fourth..... or third.... and if you add AGOG logic he once used then Nami joined yet again in Skypiea Arc and Robin joined again in Enis Lobby....
Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Chopper, Nami, Robin, Franky, Usopp, Brook... woah looks fucked up right ?
But by simple manga pages and without theories Jinbei has the best chances.
I'm forced to agree for now, which is why I've been a little absent from this thread. Until the manga start giving more hints, there's nothing to discuss.

I hear you. I want Hancock to join, but so far it seems unlikely. It could change in the next few chapters, though. It all depends on her situation when this arc ends.
