Ah, well. Doesn't really change much though. I'm guessing next character (after brooke) will be white
The next new Nakama?
-
-
Even though its not up to me…I hope Brooke doesn't join.
-
Did I say something to make everyone stop posting on this thread?
-
everyone doesnt post in this thread every minute
im all for brooke to join
he would top both length and age (he seems older than franky to me) -
Yeah i would really like to see brook join.. I think that he would be a good fit in the crew.. it would be cool if one of the zombie generals joined, like ryuma, but i dunno if that would happen..
But brook ftw
-
Well Brook said the only thing holding him back was him without a shadow and most likely if Luffy defeats Moria everyone's shadows will return, so it is a decent possibility. It would be awesome if Ryuma joined but it won't happen.
-
Definately a fishman/fishwomen is going to join the crew, I can't see it otherwise. Definately going to be the next arc i bet lol
-
Im all for Brooke to Join! Can't wait to see him use instruments in battle. Hope he has various instruments he can fight with like how Franky has an assortment to use since he is a cyborg. (And can pull them outta his ass…well not literally....like how Franky suddenly pulls out his guitar, or how Usopp suddenly pulled out his Kabuto!)
I wanna see Brooke use a Double Bass, Flute, electric guitar, and even the conductor wand! LOL
Im up for a Mermaid to join. She'll have a Trident as her wep, and she has the same type of legs/fins that Kokoro has, except she'll look hot! I can see her as the true fisherman and she has the power to lure in fish and other sea animals. It would be sweet if she also has the powers to command the seakings to attack ships for her. :D

dont the fishmen see eating fish as kinda cannabalism? if she can "lure in fish" as you say i have a real problem imagineing him/her eating them.

Who says she has to eat the fish she catches? ;) She could just catch them for the other Strawhats and she could eat other things like Octopus or Squid (They're not fish ;D) She could eat other things like Seaweed or Coral or other crap that is down there. The SH won't have a food problem out in the sea anymore because she has the power to bring stuff in.
(I really want to see a Seaking Squid! LOLOL, Luffy will have a field day with the sheer number of fried Kalamari he has!)
-
Brooke probably will join.. 50%..
Merman should be wonderful..
I would like to see past villain join Mugiwara's, ex: Crocodile..:ninja:
It's nice if Mugiwara's have a Sea King fighting at their side..
-

Considering that theres a ton of fish that eat other fish I wouldnt call it cannabalism. Rather just normal diet.
-
^^^
Case in point: Any fish bigger than your hand. -
Im pretty sure Oda is anticipating this and he'll pull a fast one on us.
If Brooke joins…iunno, Oda will have ot make me like him...which I'm sure he will. He did it with Franky and my god hes....super!
And I realyl want Perona to join!
-
Cannibalism means eating animals that are of the same species as the eater. Not all fishes belong to the same species.
I am starting to think Brook is not going to join, since we haven't even seen him for a while…Maybe after Luffy has beaten Moria Brook and Cindry will stay in the Thrillier Bark, to take care of it.
-
Thats exactly what I was thinking Lieju. I dont think Brook will join but I might change my mind if I see something like a backstory coming up.
-

Franky was missing for a large part of the Water 7 arc wasnt he? i dont see why him missing for a large portion of the arc is going to lessen his chances of joining.
-
Franky was in Water 7 and CP9 pretty much the whole time. The only massive Franky-less gap I can think of was between his fight and him running to save Robin.
-
Franky went to the sea train with the money. He then went ot see thta his house was destroyed. Was properly introduced to fight Luffy. He then went to Blueno's bar…not sure what happens after. Skip to Franky's hideout with Usopp. CP9 break in and take him and Usopp to the seatrain. Franky fight Nero, Franky get captured and talk to Nico Robin, Franky fight Fukurou and Franky runs to save Robi nand Franky clears the marine ship for the get away.
Thats a lot of Franky in two story arcs connected together. Broke as nly appeared like...two or three chapters.
Perona has been introduced and only seen like 3 times in 3 pages. OH damn she might be able to join then!
-
I think its a little to soon to call how big his roll will be. Were only 10 chapters in and stuff changes fast in OP.
IMO he will come back when the SH's are in their most dire situation (which is probably soon if they got luffy). Then he will be a main player in the rest of the arc. Unlike Franky's main parts were all over the two arc's Brooks will be half without and half full on.
-
I think my sig says it all. Don't doubt it.
-
Lol nice sig… =D
-
I think it would make sense, that Brook would stay behind in the Thriller Bark to make sure the zombies don't cause any harm. ( If they don't kill them)
But it's just a guess (and all we can do at this point is guess and try to find similarities in the past)
If Brook gets a flashback, I believe he has a chance of joining. Until then I am not going to believe it.Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against Brook, if he indeed joins the Strawhats, I am happy with it.
-
Hmm, does a character that joins the StrawHatPirates need to have a flashback before joining? Maybe Oda would like a non-stereotypical new nakama? Haha..
-
Well, Robin had her's after she had joined. I am only saying, that if he gets a flashback, it might mean he is indeed joining.
-
Maybe Brook's flashback, flashes through the next few arcs creating something like drama show or something… So like since he met no one for decades, he might have forgotten the past? And after adventuring with the StrawHats, let's see they meet a merman, then Brook starts remembering that he had a merman friend or something like that in the past then on the next island he saw a rainbow lollipop or something and he remembered when he was little he had one... and it all links up into his flashback. haha...
-
I just had a sad flashback. I think I'm gonna be the next SH.
-
We already know enough about Brook's past: musician on a pirate boat, was killed, came back to life thanks to his DF, and lost his shadow. I don't see anything "romantic" in his past that could make a good flashback.
Could he have a dream ? He only has one goal for now, which he will probably get by the end of this arc… Nothing that would give him enough will to follow the SH in their quest.Brook will most probably stay on the island, live with zombies and make an floating attraction park, same as the floating restaurant Baratie :-)
-
Ipzie your avatar is increadibly disturbing… even more so then IDs :P
-
I think it would make sense, that Brook would stay behind in the Thriller Bark to make sure the zombies don't cause any harm. ( If they don't kill them)
Yeah, also agreed something similar here. EITHER Brooke or Perona has to stay. Both can, or one can "die" in battle. (better to say "fall"?) But one or both definitely will take control of the island in the end. Just like Kaya, Weird Knight, Vivi, Iceburg, and many others.
HOWEVER, instead of being around the zombies (as theoretically everyone would have their shadows back and thus the zombies all go bye-bye), I think it'll be the people who formerly had their shadows stolen. And the whole theory of Brooke saving everyone? Uhm, I don't see that completely happening. Some, yes; getting them out of pickles? Certainly. But Luffy'll definitely take the spotlight as always, followed by Zoro (in terms of coolness). AS seen in CP9 arc, Franky and Chopper will probably get villains of equal status, Nami will pull some amazing tricks like she always does, and… I just don't know about Usopp or Robin. =/ (I'm guessing Brooke will be Sanji's equal now! =D Maybe just on this island. But in terms of coolness? His battle will definitely pwn.)
-
Perona must go with the Straw-Hats or have her own mini story. If she joins the crew her weapon would be her lil sceptor which might shoot out magic stuff. Possibly ghost things that hurt people and/or scare them. We already got a weather controller, why not a magic wielder? Plus shes cute and seems to fit well with the Straw-Hats…imo..
Just curious...a show of hands who wants Perona to join the crew?
-
-
Perona forever! :D
-
No. Brooke ftw. Thats how I roll.
-
PERONA~~!! She can't resist the cuteness of Chopper and the Thousand Sunny!
I'm pretty sure she'll mention how cute the ship looks once she gets there.
-
Kuso she has already seen the ship when she was in ghost form.
-
Im up for a Mermaid to join. She'll have a Trident as her wep, and she has the same type of legs/fins that Kokoro has, except she'll look hot! I can see her as the true fisherman and she has the power to lure in fish and other sea animals. It would be sweet if she also has the powers to command the seakings to attack ships for her. :D
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Piece_minor_characters#Kokoro
Enough said. Plus power over sanji. =p
-
AWWW!!!! Guess that only leaves Chopper's cuteness to bring her over to their side.
Now its getting more unlikely for her to join. Wait…she can become a ghost? Wouldn't that be a good Straw-Hat ability to have. Go ghost and sneak in to things.
-
Where did all this "Perona's gonna join" talk come from? There is about as much chance of her joining as there was of Kalifa joining. I mean, come on! You might as well be saying that Absolom's gonna join just because he wants to marry Nami!
SHEESH.
-
Seesh?! Don't start freaking out just because I started a one man campaigne to support Perona in to joining the Straw-Hats. A couple of pages back I mentioned it and why not.
And besides, the Straw-Hats need at least 1 more female in the crew. So from every arc until Luffy get his 10th Nakama I suspect another female to join the crew. I'm not really a Brooke fan regardless how many times we've seen him. I'm a Perona fan regardless howmany times we've seen her.
I hope one of them joins. I'll settle for no new nakama this arc, just as long as its another female!
-
pre this arc i wanted a female to join
but now i hope brooke joins
hes made of pure win -
I want absolom to join so he can marry nami! =P
-
@Kuso:

No, they do not "need" another female in the crew. Some fans just want another (for whatever reason), and try to pass it off as necessity.
I hope one of them joins. I'll settle for no new nakama this arc, just as long as its another female!
^^ This proves my point. I do agree with MrTeach here. First it was "oh my gosh, it's Cindry. She must join, and she could be a waitress/Sanji's little helper" and now it's "Perona for next crewmate". It seems like the thought patterns of several members go along the lines of "Must…have...woman...must...have... oh sweet Jesus look, a 'something' with breasts and a halfway decent face. It must join the crew, It's role in the crew could be a tablecloth for all I care as long as it's female pants like dog [/need for woman satisfied]" It's started to get quite pathetic. Both Cindry and Perona have only been seen for a few panels and yet people are drawing the conclusion that they are going to join the crew. Before you go back to your 'female must join this arc or else' mode (not aimed at anyone in particular, just general), let me remind you of a few things.
Firstly, this is shonen, not ecchi, so the need for (more) women is not as great. Secondly, being shonen, the main focus is around it's action. Generally, this action is created through the male characters of the story; a good example of this is Oda's inspiration Dragon Ball, where the main/major characters were male and the female characters were minor/supporting/filler characters (Bulma did start of as a major character but was eventually sidelined).
Thirdly and most importantly, Oda has, increasingly over time, been using his female characters as fan service. Take Nami for example. She started of as a wily cat burglar who was the 3rd smartest in the East Blue Saga. Now her, and ever increasing bra size, are used primarily for fan service. I mean, who the fudge in their right mind would be in a scary/haunted looking castle, on a floating island infested with zombies, in probably the scariest part of the GL they've been in so far and think "oh, perfect conditions for a bath". If that does not scream desperate attempt at fan service, then I don't know what does. Then there's Kalifa, one of the strongest women Oda has shown so far, turned into a cheap whore for fan service. The Nami/Kalifa fight was an insult to the whole saga and to the manga. I would rather kill mysel…er...Gorlom than see another fight like that, and if that is what Oda has in store for future females then I don't want another on the SH crew.
I think I've gone a little off course, but I hope you understand my reasoning.
-
^ Yes I want another female to join the crew. Plus whats the big deal about it. So I want Perona to join the crew…big deal..I know it won't happen and if it did then I called it!
Why are people getting ferious over something so lame to get furious over. Good god, lighten up.
PERONA for STRAW HAT. Or at least a mini story.
And quit taking my posts so seriously. and yes Straw-Hats don't need another female for all that fanservice crap and yatta yatta yatta. The reason why I like One Piece is because they have a team. I'm not THAT huge on fan service, I just would like a Female crew member to "balance" out the crew that in my opinion, would be more lovable. Assuming the female is likeable. Bah..I'm just talking jibberish, I better stop before I piss any more people off with my posts.
-
Hahaha what did i do BlackGalleon1? was it the Absolom joke?
i want to see more Nami fights btw… I kinda like the climatacts (though i would really like to see them updated with Logia DFs ^^)
-
BG1 expresses the thoughts on my mind also… Except I don't care for fanser vice and don't tend to notice it because I'm not looking for it. This face it, Oda just doesn't make many powerful females. I'm not saying he doesn't at all (Miss Doublefinger), just that he lends towards the powerful male a lot more.
-
So far, everyone (non-strawhat) on TB is a zombie. Yes, it includes Absalom. And a few no-namers hiding out in the woods. Except for Brooke and Perona. I think that after Moria dies, the zombies fall apart and the shadows return to their masters. THEREFORE, the only two people POSSIBLE to join the crew are Brooke or Perona. At least, according to my theory (and I think I'm right, for what it's worth, about the 'zombie falling apart' thing. =P)
-
why are the shadowless people out in the woods zombies?
-
Absalom claims human and aside from the face he appears to be human as there are no other stitches on him and he has no rotting flesh…
... You probaberly find he lost part of his face and Hogback replaced it. From whats left of it, the eyes and the shape of the jawline up to the lion bit, he could possibly have been very handsome once... Or was handsome up to the face part and then the mouth area was ugly anyway.
-
Looking back at the lion nami spots in the forest i say he was really ugly pre-surgery.
(the user "It's a lion" has the suspected missing part of absoloms face as an avatar)
