! The artist's twit for this fanart:
Franky: With my hands they won't feel like that way…
Robin: Every time I'm holding hands with you it always feels warm
@Law:
hmm… talking about shipping, I guess Zoro has pairs a lot with many characters ya?
there are:
Zoro x Sanji (the most popular pair for Zoro?)
Zoro x Luffy
Zoro x Nami
Zoro x Robin (old but gold ship hha)
Zoro x Vivi (i like this pair also)
Zoro x Kuina
Zoro x tashigi
Zoro x Perona
Zoro x Bonney
Zoro x hancock (cannot imagine at all. lol)
zoro x mihawk (????)
what else...?
seems like Zoro's character is easy to get pairs with anyone lol
ah, but Luffy has a lots of pairs as well.^^
anyway why this thread become soo quiet lately? :(
My topmost pair is Zoro/Perona =p (which reminds me, I went all Barto at the recently trio Kuraigana scene asgdshgdsagdjh wish Oda gives some more!!)
For another pair, I guess I don't mind Zoro/Nami (just realizing I think I'm ok with Nami-centric lol). And I prefer Tashigi with Smoker more, they're cute <3
@Barto-chan:
recently i realize about something about romance in One Piece…
say, do you think Oda knows that there's a lots of shipper fans like us in the world?
if he knows about it.... then, what if, actually Oda gives some hints or special moments for every popular ship by purpose?
let's say it's only kind of fan-service from him to his female reader. (um, is there any male shipper anyway?)
so it's like Oda never pairs his main characters with others, but because of too many shipper fans, sometimes he made a little moments 'X' with 'y' or 'X' with 'Z' just so his shipper fans can be happy of it.
Or, i also thought, actually Oda wants to pair his characters with somebody, but he couldn't do that because his editor not allowed him to make it since it might be impact with One Piece popularity. you know, Oda ever mentioned in SBS/interview (i forgot), that he is the most person who cannot express what he wanted to.(not sure he was joking or not about this, but if i read about mangaka in Japan, i think it's possible since the professional mangaka cannot publish any story as he wants without getting approval from the Editor. and editor will always look based on what will become popular or acceptable for the readers. *also heard sometimes mangaka and editor can be fighting because of this.)
what do y'all think?
I think he knows, or someone would've told him in case he's busy researching story material rather than checking the fandom, lol. Actually I don't have any new argument myself. But yes, I agree he is putting hints to many pairs for fan-service. Though romance isn't dominant in his manga, romance still an essential part of manga, be it shonen genre, that's why I think he did that way so people can still enjoy romance within nakamaship he set out the most. By putting hints to all pairs, he'd like to be fair to all shippers yes…though, I hope if he is intended to make some real pairs, he'll do it in a way so it doesn't go too abruptly. I'm good as long as he keeps putting hints to lead me to enjoy his choice as well xDD I don't know what to say about that editor things, just hoping if his editor ever forbid him that's because of something more technical like some scenes may better put in the next chapter etc. To forbid him doing plot-wise stuffs is kinda sad :'( I really wanna know to what extent his ideas can lead him to make the whole OP he wanted it be. I have no problem with all his romance plot like Kyros/Scarlet, Sai/Baby5, Senor Pink/Luciane, etc, by far so I just believe he can make another good romance that won't upset the popularity should he want to make other couples. Still, whatever the result be there's nothing they can do to change fandom. There's always people who love it and haters are gonna hate, that happens regardless shrugs
@Cein:
anyway, just wanna post OP new color spread for chapter 779. this maybe only me, but i kinda like the way Oda draw Zoro, Robin and Chopper share pizza together. :'))
