And if you don't let your fan ego blind your eyes you will easily get what he wants you to recognize. It's not that hard.
The quote you gave is the illustration of what her_sebbe said;
For him perona sucks that's all.

Ahahaha. Oh my.
Can we just leave Perona out on next v.5 nakama thread.?
mmmm… and what is the core argument???
First I just gave my opinion, which is I THINK that Perona would make a good crewmate. But since some oldtimer doesn't like that character or that idea, I should shut up and move on?? Sorry, a thread is made for debate nothing else, what would be the point if everybody would agree with each other.I don't really understand how she is a bad character... ( if I had to choose between her and vivi the choice wouldn't be hard )
Again being fun has a lot to do with joining. Seriously what is Usopp use apart being a joke factor???No need to be patronizing with me... ( much you have to learn???? baaaa )
And I believe that a past and a character development can still happened with this one.
We give our opinions too, if you can't handle the truth go hang yourself but stop whining.
I said it on another thread but for me she's as usefull as hanchi/banchi, pearl, Moohmoo, Mr 11, etc…
And no being fun doesn't have anything to do with joining sorry. e.g.: Zorro, Robin before joining didn't have an ounce of a funny side.

You sure about the last sentence???? Robin joining was a gag seriously!!!!
If being fun has NOTHING to do with being part of the crew I'm am a man and my hair are straight.
I never said I couldn't handle disagreement, but stop being so fucking patronizing!
Be a good poster and address at least the points we raised which made us facepalm at your last posts.
Quit reading OP mama.
Or re-read from chapter 1 please.
On a scale of 1 to 1000 how disappointed will you be when Perona doesn't join.
Quit reading OP mama.
Or re-read from chapter 1 please.

Explanation for that sentence PLEASE!!!!
I don't want spending my time to explain that,
Now GTFO.
???????
Explanation for that sentence PLEASE!!!!
You were the one who said that usopp is a joke character. You are the one not understanding one piece. You are the one blinded by your perona love making horrible points to support the "she is a candidate" camp. You are the one who needs to read severals one piece arcs again to understand the one piece characters.
I thought it isn't that hard. Especially when you think that Oda writes this for kids. But i guess…
Really how can people believe a coward who leaves a crew at the first hassle could be strawhat material???
You guys need to tone it down a bit. There's no reason for the discussion to get out of hand, if you want to call it that. I'm honestly baffled by the amount of support Perona gets myself, but this is what the thread is for, so let it serve its purpose. If one of you thinks the other is wrong, make a strong case for it and leave it at that.
I just searched for perona on youtube and found a fanvid full of fan drawings to support how cool she actually is. I guess it's a strong point to address. Maybe she can join now?
Boa + Jinbee (for a little while)
I'm gonna laugh so hard the day Perona actually does join.
I'm gonna laugh so hard the day Perona actually does join.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha woooew that was funny.
I'm gonna laugh so hard the day Perona actually does join.
This would be more intelligent if you were talking about a character who has significance and the necessary interactions with Luffy.
Like Jinbei.
You were the one who said that usopp is a joke character.
arf!!!!!! mais qu'ils m'énervent!!!
OF COURSE USOPP IS A GOOD CHARACTER!!!!
He's certainly the most human-like one of the crew ( and no he's not a coward). His evolution through the manga was great to witness, he doesn't have a superhuman strenght but when he has decided to do something he will do it.
AND when I say he is a joke character it's certainly not to say that he's a good for nothing. This dude is a clear representation of the manga spirit, but tell me if he has had serious role as a fighter. NO. that's why I said his presence in the crew is pretty much for the joke factor and for the fact that he is here to remind us that with enough will one can go really far.
You are the one not understanding one piece. You are the one blinded by your perona love making horrible points to support the "she is a candidate" camp.
I AM NOT AGOG!!!!!!!!!
My points are not horrible, you don't like them that's all.
I'm not even a Perona fan girl ( I like 99% of the character of this manga).
I'm not blinded by my love, I am a supporter of the " perona could join" I never said that I would hang myself if oda decide otherwise. I just find her to be crew material.
Again I have the strange impression that AGOG did traumatized you all, and now each time you see a perona supporter you over react.
My points ain't horrible they are just my points, they are debatable like evry points.
You are the one who needs to read severals one piece arcs again to understand the one piece characters.
Seriously you should calm down…
I have read and re read this manga enough.
I explained my view on the characters.
And I don't understand how Perona can't have a good character development. Brook had one.
I thought it isn't that hard. Especially when you think that Oda writes this for kids. But i guess…
SERIEUSEMENT????
WHEN DID I SAID THAT????
YOU CAN READ MY MIND NOW?????
Stop being so patronizing…
It's seriously getting annoying,if I don't have the same vision as you, I have to consider this manga as a lame kid book???
NO sorry, that is not the case.
Salut
I don't want spending my time to explain that,
Now GTFO.
EXPLAIN!!!!!!!
tsss
Boa + Jinbee (for a little while)
well she first has to get over luffy before she starts hooking up with jimbei
I like how mama's entire argument is what Perona could have, and nothing she does. Aside from "SHE FUNNY WIERD CHARTER" which describes 80% of the OP cast anyway.
Also think about it, possibly in a month we'll never hear about Perona again.
And some people here will choke on their crow. Some of them to death.
@JERK:

Sadly this won't happen. I can't remember who had it, but somebody's signature from a long time ago tells exactly what will happen when you exorcise AGOG. "Noobs are easily frightened, but they'll soon be back, and in greater numbers."
Retardation is an epidemic. Not even the most skilled flamer(you) can remove it.
God, I'm going to hate seeing AGOG's posts here until One Piece finally ends with no Perona on the crew.

More the bolded one if you ask me.

My points are not horrible, you don't like them that's all.
If you refuse to make clear arguments and base everything around blurry statements like "she is funny and might join if oda decides to investigate more time in her character development" then sorry it's just too vague and apply to tons of characters.
I'm not even a Perona fan girl ( I like 99% of the character of this manga).
I'm not blinded by my love, I am a supporter of the " perona could join" I never said that I would hang myself if oda decide otherwise.
Then explain me why you say this:
I just find her to be crew material.

My points ain't horrible they are just my points, they are debatable like evry points.
And we debate them now and zephos already told you why they aren't great. I mean there are enough users here who made an attempt to list "properties" a SH should have to join the crew.
Seriously you should calm down…

And I don't understand how Perona can't have a good character development. Brook had one.
You won't believe me but i'm chilling while i post this.
Every character can have a "good" development. This isn't a point. Besides Oda gave us tons of infos about brook in the thriller bark arc. Which he didn't with perona. He might do it. But i seriously doubt it. She isn't as enigmatic as robin was and was plain 1 dimensional.
SERIEUSEMENT????
Mais bien sur. Le seul problême est que la lecture est surestimée de nos jours:
WHEN DID I SAID THAT????

Stop being so patronizing…

Oda writes one piece for kids. You disagree with it? Your points aren't great because of "look above". Get over it. I also never said that one piece is a lame kid book. You seem to see kid books as lame. I wonder why that is?

Most bad theorizers are lightweights like mama and Herr Sebe. Only one in every 1000 is like AGOG, and his will has, in spite of their attempts to distance themselves from it, been their momentum and cornerstone.
I will kill him.
How will you celebrate your inevitable victory.
lots of youtubs and fist pumps
I can't recall any posts made by him that actually has another argument than "Perona sucks" or "Perona supporters are retarded", so perhaps you could specify which one of them exactly?
He had one post which I can at least agree to accept about the intangibles that Perona might be a little hacked with her Devil Fruit, as well as the repetition of the whole "No RECURRING CHARACTER has ever joined the crew!!" stuff.
Aside from that, he hasn't ever elaborated on why it is impossible for Perona to get the other "stuff" that she lacks, even though she obviously has never been written off to "fail" at those things– due to them never ever being revealed.
I just know that Zephos likes to overplay the pointless stuff that has nothing to do with the topic at all...

Well, there's really nothing against her character from JOINING, at least nothing to rationally note.
You can't claim that she's unable to get a sad past, chance to join, and a whole entire elaborate explanation that allows her to deepen her range with her devil fruit. Plus, you could easily see a personality of hers that differs from the other crew members, and a whole lot of other stuff that could easily appear.
You cannot argue things that remove her character from joining like Jinbei's unknown island situation and Hancock's known island-without-a-solution situation…
Perona was already removed from Moria in the manga, and she's free to do as she pleases-- especially if Oda is using her as a character who will have a bigger role in the future...

Please, control yourself.
We've been at a standstill since chapter 560; or something around then.
Since nothing is changing, the wait is all that's going to eventually decide what Perona's reintroduction leads to… You've established absolutely nothing at all, as I have yet to convince you that her reintroduction is going to hint towards her at least acting like a "Vivi-like" character that guides them. However, I like to assume that this is beyond Vivi since it's turned into a hunch, I claim she'll join eventually.
This was a preordained match where I was always the winner and you were always the loser.
I've said this all along.
I'm just excited because now that the flashback is over the promised time of cashing my check is coming closer by the week.
You foolish fools!!

I just know that Zephos likes to overplay the pointless stuff that has nothing to do with the topic at all...
So if I got this right, the core argument is simply that of the hax devil fruit along with an "It hasn't happened before, so it can't happen now".
The former I can partially agree with too, since she has indeed a rather broken devil fruit, however seeing as Haki is currently being more and more hyped into the story line, I feel that the problem is going to resolve itself very soon, whether she is to join or not.
The last thing, assuming it's about how she has no sad past and yet doesn't cut it for the other standard patterns, is just crap. It's back again to the part where arguers are stuck in the past, thinking that what hasn't happened yet can't happen in the future. I guess this bottoms in how Jinbei (probably) and Hancock have known sad pasts and have already started interacting with Luffy, hence they could be concidered more likely, but let's look again. Interaction with Luffy is just a matter of current time, and it will resolve itself before Perona is going to join. As for sad pasts, let's look at the other crew members and when their pasts were revealed:
Zoro: After interaction with Luffy, moments before he joined.
Nami: Arlong Park, after she joined temporarily.
Usopp: Dunno if it's concidered a real flashback, but Kaya revealed it right after he joined.
Sanji: Had his flashback after Luffy started concidering him a crew member. Chopper: Had his flashback after Luffy's decision to recruit him.
Robin: Do I really need to say anything?
Franky: Surprise.
Brook: After Luffy asked him to join.
As you can see above, the majority of crew member flashbacks have occurred either as a surprise or after it's already been made clear that they're joining. Hancock and Jinbei do not follow this pattern. I do however not believe in patterns, so this is more to show that I don't think the matter of lacking a flashback in current time is relevant. Perona is free to have one even after it's been made clear that she's joining, if such were to happen.
To the people that talked about Perona supporters not counter-arguing the "core argument", does this qualify enough?
perona fans still making obnoxiously long posts while ignoring the obvious then?
good good

This thread should be renamed so as not to confuse people: "AGOG and his Followers Preach the Perona Bible While Others Talk Sense, Vol. 4". I mean, how does the name "Next Crewmate Discussion (Vol. 4)" capture what this thread is really about?
Is this really that big of a deal? For the record I'm on middle ground when it comes to this kind of stuff because there's no sure fire way of knowing especially considering all that's involved, and all the government protection that needs to be addressed.

Disrespecting the Bible now?
So:
Jinbei= Uncle?
Perona= Little Sister?
Hancock= LOL Grandmother?
Hopefully, the next one is Boa Hancock.
no… making a parallel to ultra-religious zealots that preach where they're not wanted. And yes, I realize that's an extreme minority of religious people that do so, but looky here, an extreme minority is doing the same thing for Perona.
I'm agnostic and not so crass and rude to knock on anyone's religion. Try learning some reading comprehension before posting here again as I doubt anyone but you saw my post as a knock on the Bible:getlost:
errr…it was a joke.
Post deleted then. Hard to tell sarcasm/jokes from idiocy in this thread.
This thread is filled with unnecessary over actions.
I mean, unlike Jinbei and Hancock, Perona, at her current position and stage, can join the crew NOW– not after further development and all that jazz.
She doesn't need a "save Amazon Lilly Arc, Fishman Island Arc, or something that explains how a certain character turns isolated" because she already gained that explanation as the story progressed. Which, I believe that these odd instances lead to something happening, otherwise she would have remained by Moria's side, like a fodder character would.
We all know that having Jinbei join before Fishman Island happens is rather absurd. Having Hancock just leave without any closure is ridiculous. We all know that Margueritte leaving with Luffy is pointless, and several other situations...
We are still on Amazone Lily. You don't know what will happen now. Maybe Nyon comes along and says to Luffy that he has to take Hancock with him. Maybe Hancock want's to tag along herself. Maybe she sends Margueritte with him?
You don't know. Anyways, Hancock could easily join right now. Her dream could be to gain the love of Luffy or just to be with him. Stupid dream? Maybe… but it is one! Another one could be to save people from the grasps of Slavery.
Plus, Hancock had more Foreshadowing then Perona does:
http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/489/16/
Something says me this is the little foreshadowing that Hancock is going to Fishman Island.
If you can't find it. It's in the top left corner. Plus the fact Moria got attacked. I see Hancock also getting attacked.. well Amazone Lily.. oh well, it's speculation. I don't care anymore who joins. The new crewmembers are going to be cool anyways!
Jinbei could also be joing before the Fishman Island Arc. If he does join… then his time to shine could be that arc x3.
The only thing that is bugging me is the whole "Ex-Boss" Thing I read a month ago somewhere on this forum. It stated that Oda said the Crew will be entering Fishman Island with an Ex Boss figure...
Before people are gonna say: So that means, Hancock or Jinbei.
Hancock can still join en be the Empress of Amazone Lily ;o
The only theory I've got of those two Schichibukai joining is because to make the team of Luffy on par with Blackbeards:
Blackbeard Shiryuu and the 4 prisoners are level 6 material.
At the end of the serie probably the whole crew would become level 6 material. But right know:
Franky and Robin are the only level 6 prisoners... this would mean if both Hancock and Jinbei would join they got 4 Level 6 prisoners... prob. 2 farfetched =P.
Oh well, I don't know what I would like. Nobody's joining the crew and making names while kicking asses? Or people who are already quite known through the world?
Zoro: After interaction with Luffy, moments before he joined.
Nami: Arlong Park, after she joined temporarily.
Usopp: Dunno if it's concidered a real flashback, but Kaya revealed it right after he joined.
Sanji: Had his flashback after Luffy started concidering him a crew member. Chopper: Had his flashback after Luffy's decision to recruit him.
Robin: Do I really need to say anything?
Franky: Surprise.
Brook: After Luffy asked him to join.
Zoro: Obvious potential crewmate from start. All went down within five chapters.
Nami: Hinted at her past in second chapter of her being around, and dropped plenty of hints beforehand. Was always a character of greater depth then the surface.
Usopp: Usopp's past and life was known from the start practically when he reveals to Luffy that his dad is Yasopp.
Sanji: His past with Zeff was a question Oda brought up almost right off the bat.
Chopper: Chopper's very existence was always a question mark of "what the fuck". Kureha hinted at it beforehand as well.
Robin: Yes because Robin had to be the biggest mystery in terms of who she was in the series of anybody. Only Dragon has been more enigmatic.
Franky: Franky played a prominent role in the Water7 arc all the way up until his flashback, and the part before where we found out he was Cutty Flam.
Brooke: Brooke's flashback just showed what we had already found out way before any of the TB battling even started.
Perona has a complete and utter zero in terms of the story wondering at her past and potential conflict. An absolute zero. No weight of character exists for her at all, not even in the arc where she played her minor role.
She is absolutey nothing like any of the Strawhats on any matter of relevance.
Every single one of those characters had a flashback and past obvious either right away, or not long after their appearance.
This thread is so fucked-up that I'm starting to find it amusing.
Against: "Why aren't Perona supporters making arguments? Probably because they've been struck be reality. Lolzor."
Support: [Makes argument]
Against: "Ugh… So retarded. Stop making long arguments..."
You foolish fools!!
The next nakama is not Jinbei, Hancock or Perona, but…..
"Demon of War" Gin
cool name huh?
When have people said you don't make arguments lol, the reason this thread is so bad is your arguments. Always has been.
Perona gave up on her nakama to save her own life. Luffys has specifically said that a pirate needs to do the opposite. That's a huge problem. End of story.
Whoo. First to figure that out! Wait hold on no… I think I actually read that like 1 or 200 times before. It's just so often ignored by Perona supporters that I forget it's there.

Here's what you need to get: Just because it hasn't happened before doesn't mean it can't happen now.
