Ya know, I just want to point this out. Regardless of whether or not Carrot joins the crew or just becomes an ally via the Mink group, am I really, really glad to have the furry community unite with ours. That's going to be really, really great and I look forward to the fan art and insight that they'll bring. I'm really, really looking forward to how Oda decided to intergrate our two communities. Forever. Like even if we deny it it's kind of two late, cause the Mink's have been in canon for years and you can't erase that association. Actions speak louder than words, and Carrot can't be erased just cause we want it to. They're here, forever, and we should be just fine with that.

I know your joking, but I'm compelled to ask, are furries really reading/watching One Piece now because of Minks?

Hey, April 1st was a long time ago, and after all that's happened I'm afraid I can't remember.
As of now, Brook joined nine years ago. Let that sink in.

It gets even crazier this way: The gap between now and Brook joining is the same now between Brook joining and the start of the fights at Arlong Park! (1999)
Yeah, it's about time we get a new crewmember. This Jinbe guy sounds like a good addition…
@Big:
the start of the fights at Arlong Park! (1999)
Shit man, the same year Zoro fought Hachi was when Spongebob came on TV?

And Steve Austin VS Vince McMahon was a fresh thing just starting out. It's crazy to think how long OP has been around.

Since 2008? That's back when I was 12 years old riding the Sonic Unleashed hype train. Feels like a forever ago!
To think we will have another straw hat soon enough after so long.

ok choo chooo, Pudding for nakama train NOT departing…. yet....
with that strong bipolarity quirk of her, brown schemed color, unique race, three damn eyes!!, potentially upcoming sad flashback, unique af character.. one would think, let's get the damn train on its max speed!!!
but.....
why would Pudding join at all??, the Voat??, Luffy has it, read poneglyps??, Robin's job..
plus Jinbe joining this arc. All I can think of is she's being setup to LEAVE Big Mom but not to JOIN Luffy. so I guess the idea of her allying(not joining) Teach kinda gets a lil push on it, since well, Teach needs to reach Raftel too and Robin's not with him.
Blackbeard's crew already has it's 11th, we just haven't seen them yet.
Pudding for nakama… I said it before she went evil... and now back... Oh fuck I don't know

The Legend Continues….
A tale as old as time...
I'm just here, ready for whoever is joining next to the fish.
Even the wikia has already begun to condense Jinbe's article into tabs like the rest of the Strawhats.
I think, barring something huge like him dying during the fight with Big Mom, Jinbe is a lock to join this arc.

Finally, I've been waiting for that to occur.

I still don't see what would be the true purpose of this , I mean sure Oda has teased it going back as far as Impel Down but the whole put my life on the line thing is almost as common character gimmick for Jinbe as Brook's panty jokes at this point. Even more hilarious when you consider we have yet to see the man even struggle in single combat sans protecting Ace and Luffy from Akainu.

Checks Jinbei's Wiki That wasn't there the last time I was on his page. It's about time.:happy:

I said allying, not joining, sort of like Aokiji.

I didn't say him dying was likely, just that it would be probably the only thing that would prevent him from finally joining.

I imagine Blackbeard already has his own way of reaching Raftel, considering the many years he spent on Whitebeards ship he most likely knows about there existance either from traveling or just knowledge from being that high.
And consdering his love of history and planning (and since he luffy counterpart/dark reflection most likely has VOAT) so I'm pretty sure we would have his own way.
I honestly wouldn't mind Pudding joining, she's got a good face and interesting personality, but I'll be extremely surprised if it actually happens.
Not just because of story reasons and her lack of a ship role, but because her fruit is as anti-strawhat as you can get. Much of the series is built upon the Strawhats getting to know people, making a name and becoming more famous. Exposing the evil withing countries. Memory altering powers would undo most of that and make people question their credibility.
She'll make a good crew addition in fan fiction, but not outside it.

To be fair, he's been a part of so many important arcs at this point that it would probably be warranted regardless. This is what, the 5th major arc (if we count "Post-War" as an arc) where he's played a key role in the plot? He's probably got the most panel time of any non-SH (as of yet) character so far.

Plus his cover story (which wasn't very interesting but in the end gave us another Poneglyph and the new yellow/orange clothes for Jinbe )!

I don't know what you're going on about in the slightest. I see all of the potential in front of us plain as day.
Last minute tragic flashback about discrimination, like Chopper, Robin, and Jimbei. "Unique" design looking like Nami with pigtails and a third eye. Story reasons? Luffy said he was fine with Sanji's wife joining the crew. I haven't seen foreshadowing this clever from Oda since Jimbei was name dropped in Arlong Park and finally debuted all the way in Impel Down. The Straw Hats came to Totland to rescue Sanji, but they ended up learning that the real person who needs saving is Pudding. She can't be held responsible for his misdeeds due to said random tragic flashback. Look at Arlong and Doflamingo. They had tragic flashbacks and garnered widespread sympathy from fans and characters despite their crimes against humanity.
Lack of ship role? Anti-Straw Hat Devil Fruit? Her form of contribution couldn't be more obvious. She will become the crew's psychiatrist. By using her memory powers, she can be able to cure amnesia and pave the way for advanced mental illness treatments. Her dream is to open up her own psyche ward due to suffering from years of her mother suffering from a retrograde short-term amnesia-linked eating disorder. In this psyche ward, it would basically be One Piece's own successful version of Arkham Asylum. Where she will be able to meet and treat all of the villains throughout the series in order to convert them into morally upright citizens. She will analyze their memories without consent due to their unyielding corrupt nature, and forcefully alter their memories so that they had positive charismatic upbringings instead of their true negative ones. After all, what need is there for the struggles of redemption if there's nothing you believe has to be redeemed?
Just take at look at these drawings:
!

Clearly they have suffered from some sort of abusive childhood similar to what Pudding had to endure. All they require is a bit of memory shuffling after being incapacitated from battle, and then they will effectively be redeemed into proud allies for the Straw Hats. This will be Oda's testament to Masashi Kishimoto's Naruto series utilizing protagonist speeches to convert villains to heroism. This is surely an example to preserve and strive for. One Piece is known for its theme of inherited will, and the key to life is to force that good will onto others for success in achieving your dreams. Pudding will not just expose all evil, but get rid of it entirely. How inspiring.
Captain did't met her first.
for now, Imma keep on believe Pudding is being settled to leave BM but not to join Luffy.
Hopefully Jinbe dies, so that Pudding and Gastino can join without having more than 11 Strawhats altogether.

why cant we have all of them join plus reiju and carrot and bobbin and smoothie and pedro and the other vinsmokes

Good point. But Jinbe nevertheless cannot ever join because you know why.
Jenbe dying would destroy me. He's everything Luffy needs and his desth would add nothing to the story. I zoro fans are intimidated. Just to let it be known Law joining is what I want to see, or even Bonney. I think either one would make a good firstmate. Luffy has nobody to lead when he's gone infact when he's there nobodybis really keeping people in line. This only works in fiction and in reality a general is most effective and wouod make one piece look more realistic. Law, Jenbe they both have leadership skills that Luffy doesn't. It's kinda annoying that he is the onky major contender for PK that doesnt have a set plan or way of doing things. Just a lucky unoarganized plot driven scramble for sucess.
Jenbe reminds me of mr gibbs from pirates of the caribbean. Who was either Jacks firstmate or helmsman i cant remember.
Jinbe will join… Do not worry
But nothing will change. nothing for Zoro, nothing for mosnter trio or whoever. We will have Jinbe simply in and he will have his own role like every SH has
Yeah Jinbei not gonna die.
Good point. But Jinbe nevertheless cannot ever join because you know why.
I totally agree, man. Who needs build-up and payoff? When Jinbei biteszadusto, he'll serve as a painful reminder for Luffy of how terrifying the New World is. This will also lead into a second two-year timeskip for the crew so they can plow through anything in their way.
Don't forget the extra female crewmates, even if they're all Namiface.:ninja:
Pudding will delete jimbei from SH's memories so they won't want him in the crew anymore, she will joins instead. That was her evill mastermind plan all along.
I imagine puddings power could be reversed to also store memories, so that could be a thing. Especially in tandem with whatever her third eye is supposed to be able to do.
But that's more a plot power, not a fighting thing so much.
I do have to wonder if Oda wants to make Pudding fruit fight worthy, how would he do it?
Jimbei is just perfect for the Strawhats in every aspect, hes Strengthwise a Upgrade they never had before… But most important, Jimbei knows the businesse of being a Pirate the most...
I do have to wonder if Oda wants to make Pudding fruit fight worthy, how would he do it?
Have her able to remember and imitate any move she sees. Some combination with third eye foresight. Gunplay. Something.
True, though I really don't see the chances of her joining all that high I will still hold onto this as something.

Why don't the crew have a talking tree, an unicorn and a pair of legs on the ship then?
