I noticed on tumblr that One Piece has gotten a reputation for having hot older men. From Mihawk to Crocodile to Doflamingo, a lot of fans can't seem to keep their hands on these attractive silver foxes. I know that after the time skip, it has gotten more male centered fanservice but more fans have know taken notice that there are a lot of good looking older dudes.
The Hot Older Men Of One Piece
-
-
Well, that is how fandom are. They have many strange tastes with characters
-
Regarding hot older men, I remember the interview between Oda and Kyosuke Usuta in 2008.
Usuta: What do you think is the awesome point of your manga?
Oda: Old men/women are strong in ONE PIECE. There are some hot old men/women in real world, but they are not necessarily strong. I hope they are strong at least in my manga.
-
Well geez, just take a look at Curly, Kureha, and Tsuru for the women counterparts.
-
"The fuck…" was the first reaction when I saw the thread title.
It's true that Oda focuses more on male characters, appearance wise and personality wise.
But, is there a point to this thread or?
-
Blackbeard gets me hot and bothered
-
Sakazuki is the hottest, of course.
-
Well geez, just take a look at Curly, Kureha, and Tsuru for the women counterparts.
more about shakky..croco and mihawk are not THAT old
-
I could bring a…"certain banned phrase".... up in here but I won't lol
-
Well geez, just take a look at Curly, Kureha, and Tsuru for the women counterparts.
Well Kureha was more of a joke design, she may have the face of a hag but her body is sexy.
But, is there a point to this thread or?
Why to talk about sexy old men of course If a thread could be made for 'sexy female' then why not?
@KaizokuJinbei:I could bring a…"certain banned phrase".... up in here but I won't lol
Manglaze?:ninja: …nahhh it has to be something else for manglaze isn't a banned phrase. Banned from usage in contests yes, banned in a thread or two, possible, of overall site? Nah
Speaking of manglaze, the original the phrase was made for fits in this thread. I'm surprised no one's used Rayleigh yet.
-
Rayleigh
I thought this was about older men, like in the 30s, 40s. Not OLD geezers like Rayleigh and Sengoku.
-
This has the potential to become a gathering place of questionable material.

@Don:

And plenty of that does exist on the dojin market.
-

Kureha = Madonna
Dadan = Kathleen Turner? Lol
Tsuru = who knoes -
Though seriously, I think he's talking more of the middle-aged because too many animes focus on younger teens or twenty-somethings with very few older dudes and fewer as hot and steamy as Mihawk, or Crocodile.
I think Oda's willingness to have fairly ripped dudes who are also barrel-chested and have plenty of body hair might refer to the other side of the spectrum in relation to uniquely "sexy" older dudes. You know, the "Bluto" body builds that arouse a few people.
-
I'd totes be down for some heavy petting with Marco. He doesn't look that old but he's in his 40's, right?
-
I don't know what I expected.
-
One piece made me discovered that i like hot evil older men (i have this weird obsession towards croc and doffy).
-
@le:

I agree with this notion.

I would NEVER imagine people thought the men from OP were hot. Older or not. Seriously.

Are you kidding? Sanji? Zoro? Ace? There are plenty of hot dudezoes.
-
how about hot older women
-
My one and only OTP in OP before Doffy was Smoker and Ace (because of their convinient fruits, the fact they were on the oposite side of the law and because they seemed to work well together during their time in Alabasta). See where that ship sailed, le sigh. I personally think the Strawhats are a bit too… young. For some reason. I'm just disturbed when I picture them together (except for mom and dad, Franky and Robin, ofc).
-
Shanks, that is all.
Just replace the name "Arthur Fortune" with Shanks and you have my exact reaction.

But Robin goes with Zoro

I actually used to have Ace as one of the examples that "in OP you can have strong characters that look ugly as hell" - one of OP qualities in my opinion.

Just because of his freckles? That's mean.
-

It's everything else, actually. No, seriously, I doubt Oda was aiming for him to be a cute guy when he designed him.
But now that I think about it, I always thought Franky was quite hot. And he is one of the "older guys". Oh, and Iceburg is also pretty fine.
…...... Suddenly the fanarts make sense.And I can tell Oda was definitely going for a "hot latin man" with Rob Lucci. If just he wasn't drawing eyes so terribly durring W7/EL.

Manglaze?:ninja:
And that instant, 3-4 years of tournament memories came flashing into my head.
*twitches

Too young? Most are in their twenties or older. Luffy, Usopp and Chopper I think are the only ones that are still teens.
-

… You're making me feel old, now.
When you google it, this is the answer; After the timeskip Luffy: 19, Zoro, 21, Nami, 20, Usopp, 19, Sanji, 21, Chopper, 17, Robin, 30, Franky, 36, Brook, 90. So "in their twenties" is still… pretty young for me v.v; Ace was the exception, he was young but while he was still goofy he did have some mature qualities that I thought fit nicely with Smoker.
@FelRes:But Robin goes with Zoro
No. Robin and Franky are the parents! And Brook is granddad! The others are the stupid kids that need to be taken care of! Shipping Robin with Zoro is too disturbing.

@.access:

There are people who think the women are hot, so it stands to reason there's a female/gay population that sees the male hotties.
-

If there was anything I expected from this thread, it sure wasn't Ace, one of the two main cash cows for milking female fans of One Piece alongside Law, with his hot body and prettyface, being called "ugly as hell". Wow? You do realize he is literally the center of fangirl affections, right?
One Piece has lots of older characters and it's awesome, I'm deadly bored from all the teens populating manga and anime casts these days.
-
Ace is pretty hot. Can't see how he'd be considered ugly. Same for Law.
I think OP has some of the hottest guys I've seen featured in a manga. And they're a bit different from what you'd normally expect, like bishonens for example, that is for the exception of Cavendish who really looks like a girl tbh.
In terms of older guys, Shanks, Mihawk and even Rayleigh are my favorites.And Roger had the most epic mustache, or nose hair maybe?
-
What? No love for men like Sengoku?
-
When I think 'hot older guy from One Piece' I immediately think of Rayleigh. Like, damn. He can get it.
Kizaru, Law, Zoro, Shanks, and Ace all get my votes too.
I'm sure there's others I'm forgetting.
-
Forgotten hotness: the older Luffy from the original Romance Dawn
Luffy is already pretty hot, but it's nice to know he develops nicely after however long that is
-
As a gay man who loves older men, i approve of this thread. Oda has the hottest male designs in all shonen (smoker, x drake, akainu, iceburg, hell even whitebeard) IMO while naruto only had Asuma and Bleach only had Isshin.
So yay for DILFS
-
What about Garp? We saw him in Joy and Sorrow. Don't you Girls (and Boys) like Men who can express their Feelings? Garp shared a lot of Feelings with us.
Don Chinjao or Lao G are also pretty old. I wonder if they are loved too.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Oh, and don't Forget Neptune's hairy Body. All the guys I've listed are strong too.
-
Don Chinjao and Lao G are like something out of a raisin walrus lemon party, I would hope we as a community are better than that.
-
Let's see here.
If I was to go with who I consider to be the oldest person and hot, that would be Rayleigh. Dude is buff, has a sophisticated look to him, buff, sports glasses like a boss, buff, swam all the way to Amazon Lilly, has those sweet sexy abs, first person we saw hurt an admiral, and sports a beard in the most sexy way. If I was gay he would be a Gilf (G stands for Grandfather).
If I was to go with the most sexy man of the series, it would hands down be that sexy red hair Shanks. With that scar, being so strong even with one arm, and personality, he can make all men go gay and all lesbians go straight. If you aren't attracted to him, then I don't know how you can be human.
If I was to go with my crazy attraction to a male character, that would be Franky. I'm sure Brook could be a looker at 90, if he had some skin and muscle.
-
You know what makes older men ever hotter?
Moustaches.

You and I think alike, sir!
@LightningAce:Shanks, that is all.
You too.
Shanks is the hottest male in One Piece!As for the topic, it'd be stranger if people didn't consider these characters sexy. (I mean ones in their 30-40s or something)
It's just.. impossible. -

Yes Shanks it the best BUT he's not even middle aged, only 39, and that's why he's not been brought up. By 'older male' many of automatically think of a male that's 50 or more.
So while Shanks is hot, he's too young for this thread :ninja:LOL j/k Jazzflower (who opened the thread) mentions Doffy(41), Crocodile(46) and Mihawk (43), who most are in same age range as Shanks but then mentions 'attractive sliver foxes' which implies older men, like 50 or more. Out of those 4, only Crocodile is middle aged (45-65)
So the "older male' is a subjective term in this thread AS I said, many of us are thinking of 50+ when thinking of older males while some of the teens and young adults think anything over 30 qualifies

He's only a year away from 40s, he counts :3
I meant Doffy, Crocodile, etc. but
Silver foxes like Rayleigh are hot too. It just might be subjective for some, because of his age. Whereas the others? I find it impossible. -
This thread amuses me. I may lurk here for awhile….
-
Smoker is love, smoker is life
-
He's only a year away from 40s, he counts :3
He's 6 years away from 45, so nope, Shanks isn't middle aged
Also to resond to "what is manglaze?"
I posted the pic on the first page but here it is again[hide] This is Manglaze!
[hide] [/hide] [/hide]Its a phrase we used to refer to a pic of Rayleigh of when he first emerged from swimming to Amazon Lily and so he was dripping wet.
I think the phrase came up during a character tournament, which has rules against using pics of nudity or erotica and suggestive pics. This pic was used often and someone(s?) yelled about equal opportunity and if we couldn't use pics of gals in really suggestive poses then we shouldn't use pics that sexualize men either.And the phrase stuck and has been used for pics of smexxy males since
-
^Aw yeah, give me some of that manglaze (I really wish I knew about this place years ago, seems that I missed out on many of the great moments).
My one and only argument about Shanks being considered old it the fact that people these days consider 30 to be old for some reason. Beyond that, yeah Shanks isn't old so title of the sexiest old man goes to Rayleigh by far. Unless someone else comes along to take the title, but that's a feat to beat right there.
