Agreed.
The problem is that we know next to nothing about her.
She is too similar to Robin personality wise.We need a female character that balances out Nami and Robin personalities.
I would love to see a female dwarf, or a giantess seriously how epic would that be?
Regarding the personality issue, I really dont see anything bad with it. So far we don
t know much about Monet because she hasnt had that much exposure, but up till now I would say she
s the scheming and well informed type well at least one of her traits is. She has also hinted to be a flirt here and there. Sanji would sure be glad to have her on board because if she truly likes to flirt her interaction with the love cook would be out of this world.
Now, related to a character that balances nami and robin, I really dont see the need as long as the next character
s personality is distinct enough. I`ll try to list the straw-hat with some of their main characteristics both good and bad. Being obvious that their morale towards companionship and friends is first class which is what really matters. Here goes.
Luffy: Happy go lucky, reckless, loyal, fun, adventurous, joyful, prideful, selfish to a degree.
Zoro: Serious yet funny, dependable, rough, will risk his life for his friends, a bit stuck up, confident , disoriented and astray (obviously he cant even find his way to the sunny
s Toilet)
Sanji: Chivalrous, lecherous, tactician, smart, pricky attitude but does things on good intentions, grateful and compassionate, cool as long as a mellorine is not in sight. Love cook
Nami: Greedy, accountant, sexy, but very short tempered (Though she seems to have calmed somewhat after the ts), harsh, fashionable, thief, navigator, the rest of the crew bar robin and maybe franky is "scared" of her when she loses her cool, coward, emotional, slick, trendy and stealthy.
Ussop: Liar (though he hasnt lied that much after the ts), trickster, resourceful, coward yet he
s getting less and less by the chapter, proud, emotional, human, able to create strong bonding (I would argue that Zoro , nami and him are the 3 SHs with the stronger bonding to Luffy though this is not the thread for that), negative, loyal, "weak", confidence issues.
Chopper: Naive, cute, cuddly, also with confidence issues though hes overcome them after the ts it seems, book smart (medicine), sympathetic, versatile, eager to take risk (rumble ball before and after TS), "The pet", too good intentioned for his own good… I have a feeling that from all the shs Chopper is the less selfish and would always be the one who accommodates to whatever the situation **Robin:** Intellectual and silent, unexpressive yet with a huge backbone of dark humor which actually makes her funny in a different way. calm and collected, she
s definitely the person to go to if intelligence needs to be made. Her inexpressiveness makes her hard to describe actually, but she loves history.
Franky: If robin is unexpressive, Franky is one of the Flashier SHs "SUPPAAA", shipwright, ridiculous fast builder, sensitive, pervert, "hentai", cyborg, strong character but he
s like a child in a way, dependable and he`s definetely an entity which cannot be understood by OP women.
**Brook:**Yohohoh, a pervert though a different kind "pants o-san", happy, fun, skull joke, a high resilience to death and a strong will for living, musician, likes to joke around especially about himself but gets frustrated when someone else points it out. lol
Im sure I haven
t described them all well enough but the idea is that theres so many kind of attributes and traits a character can have that I
m sure the mechanic will work in a way of another as long as the character is distinct enough. For instance the tendency of Kinemon refusing everything thats normal to feel because he
s a "samurai" is pure gold; we still don`t have that kind of negation within the crew traits. And as the last example a lot more might work if ODA really wants them to
