:wub: @Gaiyae:
I would go with a mermaid.. After brook joins.
Either that or a giant squirrel :ninja:
I could never see a giant squirrel joining…
Throughout this month, we will be testing new features (like search) so you may experience some hiccups from time to time. We'll try to not be too disruptive...
The next new Nakama?
-
-
Personally I think its more likely that fishman will join at the next island than a mermaid, cause if a mermaid joins she's gonna have to be over 30. But i do think the next member (after Brook of course) will be female so there probably won't be a Nakama from Fishman Island.
-
well a fishman will be good to join it would fit perfect with a cyborb,a reindeer big foot,a talking skeleton and a rubber man!!! not to say he could save quickly the SH DF users that fell into the sea,yep baywatch with nami and robin would rock!
well as for the ability of some of the future nakama i think a blacksmith would fit perfectly!!! he could be from a legendary family of blacksmiths and either they give zoro a one of a kind sword or they "upgrade" wado ichimonji so it will not be taken the spotlight by future better swords that zoro will take like the 1st kitetsu for instance
he could make the new ship new weapons and also make better weapons for everyone like usopp did in the past for nami
and like usopp wasn't a carpenter,this way franky isn't a blacksmith so although the 1000 sunny has weapons a blacksmith could make better!
also someone with strategic abilities should fit too
-
Having a blacksmith would on the crew would be quite quite pointless. His/her main job would be to fix Zoro's sword, basically Zoro's sword-shine boy. No other crew member is there for the sole purpose of helping one particular person.
Having said that, whether or not the crew do get Brooke as a musician, I'll still hold on to the hope that they would get a gyojin helmsman (explained in one of my previous post). After all, they are not really what you would call normal, and would fit in with the SH abnormality. What i would hate, personally, would be if Brooke were to join and the SH continue on to get another DF user (including Brooke that would make four). I want to see other strong people with powers outside of a DF (a cyborg was pure win). Maybe a kyojin (giant)…...
-
well a giant would be hard to carry around!!!
but the blacksmith doesn't only make swords,he makes all kinds of weapons http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blacksmith so he could make weapons for everyone including the ship!
-
So, does that make Usopp a blacksmith?
-
@Lucchi:
I still want Smoker to join… but i doubt it's gonna happen.
And Brooke for sure! He's just too weird to not to be in the crew!
Yeah!!! smoker for strawhats!
-
Yeah!!! smoker for strawhats!
Yeah, it'd make sense for the SH's to have at least one logia, especially having an ex-marine join, it'd serve as quite a twist. It would also give them someone who can form strategies, I mean, he's quite a high ranking marine, so it'd make sense for him to have at least a decent knowledge of battle tactics. Plus, he's uber strong, and it would give the SH's at least one DF user of each category. I don't know exactly what purpose he would serve on the ship yet, besides a battle tactician.
-
If Brooke isn't a hypnotist or magician, then it'd be nice if they found a person who was.

…first off, Brook is a musician, we already know that. Second, what does a hypnotist or magician have to do with a pirate crew? Luffy's looking for people to join his pirate crew and have positions! I mean: Zoro: swordsman, Nami: navigator, Sanji: chef, Usopp: gunner/sniper, Chopper: doctor, Robin: archiologist, Franky: carpenter, Brook: musician.
Why would a hypnotist or a magician need to be on a crew? -

Why would a hypnotist or a magician need to be on a crew?The same argument could be used against Brook. A musician isn't essential. Just preferred. Luffy may want a magician, because he's impulsive and likes flashy "cool" things. A hypnotist is useless though, I'm pretty sure Luffy could see that too after encountering Jango.
-
A musician is used for entertainment, and are/were in most pirate crews. A magician and a hypnotist, however, were not/never.
-
@Impel:

Exactly, for entertainment. Is entertainment essential?
-
Absolutly! If the whole crew is bummed all the time, then that's not going to do a lot of good when you're attacked, now is it?
-
It depends on the psychological condition of the crew, and how they deal with things mentally. And they seem to be fine off without a musician until now, so what makes you think they need one? They seem perfectly capable of entertaining themselves.
-
Look, the point is actual pirates had musicians, so they're actual crew members. Thus, Oda will make a musician.
-
Point taken, but I, myself, would rather have someone join who can also fill in another role on the ship, as just being there because you can play music isn't exactly important. Here's to hoping that Brook can fight.
Also, Franky has a guitar and sings songs, wouldn't that qualify him as a musician. So if Brook does join, he better be able to do more than play music.
-
I'd like to see Smoker not joinm but somehow admit loyalty/respect/fealty to the Strawhats as a more effective vehicle of his ideals than the Marine.
-
I had a thought the other day that another "role" that could be added to the SH crew was a scientist. Dunno where that would fit in though, just throwing ideas round.
-

I'm pretty sure that between Chopper, Ussop, and Franky they have that field almost covered.
-
In the Opverse, i don't think any position is rediculous.
Seriously, impel down, an archeologist on a pirate crew?
-
Who said anything about position in that post, impel? I listed positions on the first page. As of right now, Robin doesn't have an official position. Zoro's position is pretty lame, since everyone is a fighter.
I don't care what the position is, but I wanna see a hypnotist or magician fighter. So far most fights are too straightforward. It'd be nice to have someone who can a higher level of strategy while fighting.
-
You're all forgetting what kind of captain Luffy is. He would want a musician, because that's what he would like. He's said it from the start… so it's been hinted.
I wouldn't be surprised if Luffy wanted a hypnotist either... but at the moment he hasn't mentioned anything about one.
-
i like more battles with the fist(or sword or leg or a tool…)...
a magician so i dont prefer for the crew....
:blink: but whatever oda will do it will be perfekt at the end -
Not Brook. Thats all I know.
I mean how can we predict someone we dont know? Was anyone able to predict Franky, or a Popeye cyborg shipbuilder before he ever appeared?
-

You could have, because Luffy drew someone like that. Well, you couldn't predict the cyborg part.
And I want Brook to join. Let's see how the story evolves when he next shows up.
-
I like Brook, I just dont see him joining the crew.
-
I can easy c how brook is gonna join everything is setting upp for it. He is strange/unormal he is a musician and he entered in a new arc whit some kind of enemy that he will have to beat to get his shadow back meaning he will probely get some deep flash back.
What I think its alot more fun to think about is the next next member^
I also hope its some kind of fishman or mermaid. Because a person like that really could do alot of good things for the crew like many ppl have said, but what I really know wanan c is a Female new member that really will be some kick ass close combat person. Op clearly has to few female fighter overall and its not like many of them are any raw strengt person.another thing that I wanna se in op is some kind of romance wich now seems to be pretty stuck ….a new female crew member would hopely mix that upp a little and she could be a little more forward and by there starting a chain reaction but thats probely just very much a dream^
-
Brooke is cool but we have barely seen any of him. Im not hell bent on him joining nor is it set in stone that he will. He meets some criteria but okay, luffy also asked a tree to be in the crew in the latest chapter. :wassat:
Im not saying Brooke is out or in, i just dont think well get a new nakama this arc…lets give frankie some time to be the new guy.
-

Its would be a new way to introduce a possible new crew member. But each crew member had a unique way of joining.
Oda could be using a more passive way to tell the arc story. Istead of having the main character (brooke) be a constant, we got a face full of Brooke and then he left just as fast. Then Oda could let the story tell itself and have Brooke come back when he's needed.
I think its just oda doing new methods of telling his story. We all know Brooke will come back because he was excited about the island and he is connected to HogBack in some way.

So basicly you want a One Piece Sakura clon who can beat Luffy up harder than Nami does, and fall in love with him later on. xD j/k
A character like that would be cool, but needs to be done in an extremely original way or eveyone will be telling the resemblance with Naruto.
-
I recon the first fishwoman or mermaid who winks in the SHs direction will be speculated as the enxt Nakama…
Thats all I think. If it comes to pass the next crewmember is female, please Oda make her different to Nami and Robin. I do not want to see a Nami or Robin clone.

Lack of female characters doesn't prevent romance in any way! >:D
-
i'm not sure brooke will be joining the strawhats now. i think cindry and brooke have some history together and were seperated by dr hogback. they may end up staying at the island after all this is done. the strawhats may end up picking up a new crew member at fishman island.
-
i think its WAAY to early for the SH to get another pirate.FRanky just joined some what chapters ago, so they are now at their 8th person, while luffy wants 10(though im not sure that will be exact)
-

You know, your not the first to come up with this, so now I am starting to get quite curious. Why the hell do so many people link Brook to Cindry, with Hogback somewhere in the middle? Is it because one is….err....male whilst the other is female? Or is it because they are in the same arc? Someone please help me out here.
Rather live a coward than die a man. -
@''White:

Maybe not, within the first ten vols of One Piece we had the orginal 5 members join. No one complained then. But that was the early days of One Piece.
-
Yeh, the fact that it was early on in the series was just to establish a crew for the SHs. After that the pacing was pretty decent as far as Chopper, Robin, and Franky go. Assuming Luffy will get ten, I cant wait a bit for the last two.
-
Come hell or high water, Luffy will get his musician. Maybe it will be Brooke, maybe it won't. But he's getting one. He's wanted one since the beginning of the series.
-

I think it might be because Brook looks similar to Jack Skellington (musical skeleton with freakishly long limbs), Cindry has the same basic design as Sally (servant to a mad scientist, stitches all over her body), and Hogback (or at least his face in the latest chapter) looks sort of like Dr. Finkelstein. As well, one of Oda's favourite movies is The Nightmare Before Christmas, so this whole arc could be a reference to that movie.
-
^ I was thinking that too.
But i don't see how people don't think Brook is going to join but anyway, a thought occured to me when i was reading the last chapter. What if Hogback was the man that left Cindry at the altar i mean why else would he have so many damn portraits of her and it might explain the mask…
(obviously i didn't think about that too much...)
-
If Brook was the messiah of christianity instead of Jesus, I wouldn't be atheist.
'Nuff said. -
most likly it will be a merman for the next crewman after brooke i thinking a female spearmaster
-
I agree that I would like to see additional females in the crew (although I think it's possible we could see Vivi rejoin based on the number chapters - I'm not convinced the 7th person was referring to Franky and not to Robin), but a musician is definite.
Technically, Zoro is the first mate - it's just not brought up in storyline. That or Coby is the first mate. Which means it's probably Zoro.
As far as romance goes, uh. . . for now I think it's better left in fanfics, although I think my sig accurately portrays one of my preferences.
-
Actually I'm pretty sure someone mentions Zoro as the first mate…i cant remember what chpt/ep tho...
-
Luffy says Zoro is his champion very early in the series. I think the dub said First mate.
Hey Dixxy, how can a marine on the opposite side of the fence to Luffy be the first mate? He hasn't even set foot on the ship yet.
-
Technically Zoro and Robin don't have real positions, though Zoro does assume the role of first mate and Robin assumes the role of a historian. Neither position was assigned to them by Luffy. Luffy will pretty much take advice from anyone on board, but in matters of honor and battle, he'll side with Zoro. Also, Usopp didn't earn his position until after he was already let on board.
-

hmm that sounds kind of wak,no offense. the merman part would be good, but not a female spearmaster.
-
Dude, your sig is wayyyyy too big.
-
Is it really? cause ive seem some bigger
