      I'm guessing that if Franky joins the hub of alot of the humour will be Nami vs Franky in regards to money, she hords it, he tries to get rid of it like theirs no tomorrow. But she's already the one that's used as the be all and end all of Sanji's lusts and she's the one who tends to break up the stupidity of Luffy, Zoro and Sanji with her back of the head punches? is Oda risking overloading her character? or do you think she needed the injection for me screen time?

        arf… i was about to say something but damn YOU DIDN'T READ THE MANGA!

        so, i'll just tell you that i don't think that franky doesn't care about money. he just had to do something with what he stole from the strawhats.

          I think what he meant is the situations where Franky is wasting money like in Blueno´s Bar. Imagine the funny interactions if the Strawhats (with Franky) go to a bar and he yells "the drinks are on us" only to be beaten up by Nami in the same second he says it. :laugh:

                Well I think it's a difference if Nami has the money or if Franky has it, doubt ol' Franky is gonna mess with Nami's scratch.. and I don't think there's a risk of Nami taking on too much, she's a tough lass, she can take a lot.

                  Holds out the jar for the Tyranosaurus fund >w<

                  Hmmm, I can see that happening a couple times, in the anime at least, if Franky joins. That should be interesting. D= It doesn't matter of Franky (most likely) or Paulie joins! Nami has to make a decision, what is more important, her money or skimpy skirts!

                  I wonder what problems Tyranosaurus would have with Nami… o_o

                    Nami strikes me as one of those people that thrives on stress.

                      YOU DIDN'T READ THE MANGA!

                      lol I saw the other thread! ararara…they're always busting your chops about not reading the manga aren't they sabre?! :laugh:

                      Anyway I think Nami could use the added screen time and the interactions would defintly be funny. Nami,much like Chopper and Usopp, doesn't always get those big battles that usually help finish up the story arcs so she could use the added screentime,because once big battles begin it usually becomes the male leads that rule the show:Zoro,Luffy,Sanji, and occasionally Usopp. 😃

                      Why are you comparing it to cultural engravings and burritos.

                        I have 3 things to say lol

                        1. I don't think one of Frankys main characteristics is spending money.
                        2. Nami isn't used enough anyways.
                        3. I think there needs to be another female crew member.

                            1. The two only times he had money that he didn´t need necessarily he spent it.
                            2. Agreed.
                            3. Agreed even much more. :laugh:

                                    lol! defintly!
                                    I'm hoping we get someone younger? more teenish to balance out Nico robin(28) instead of an older lady.
                                    Also I think it would be funny if she had some insanely destructive power and got annoyed by Sanji always hitting on her unlike the other women and used it against him. lol Ararara..maybe I've just watched one too many harem series. I need to see the skirt chasing guy get slapped around to feel at home, I guess. :laugh:

                                      Erm, Sanji gets punched by Nami from time to time and he still loves her in the same instant.

                                        A girl crewmember would be nice, but it's not going to happen, at least not soon. The arcs in which characters join are getting longer and longer, and it's obvious a girl won't be joining this time, as all the real potential crewmembers are guys. It's going to be another, like, 60 chapters before we see a new crewmember after Franky/Paulie/Tilestone/Tyranosaurus.

                                          lol because Nami hits EVERY crewmember! XD

                                          true,but I NEVER saw Robin as a member of the crew during that arc and look what happened.
                                          Guess we'll see what happens when the time..com..e..s….zzz.zzz.zzz..z.. :sleep:

                                            A crazy cow of a girl would be nice, but it's not Oda's style to design women that way. He's too respectful towards the tender sex I guess.

                                              mark my words two characters will join in quick succession (probably Franky/Paulie and someone else).

                                              Though i wouldn't mind a girl i'm not totally sure, she'd have to be quite physical for me, but thinking about how her style of fighting would vary on everyone elses i don't have much hope.

                                              I go back to the merman thread in that the new crewmember other than the shipwright will either be a helmsmann (to drive the new boat) or a merman/mermaid.

                                                I just knew there was something I wanted to post the instant I saw the thread title and now I know what it was. I think this pic should be the definite answer for the threads question. :laugh:

                                                  Haha, darn, why didn't I think of posting that gif. :laugh:

                                                  I really don't see any trouble with Nami "taking on too much". She's changed a bit since the beginning, having become more mature and more concerned with her nakama than herself. I think something that would bring out a different side to her character and give her new situations to respond to would be a good thing.
                                                  And I like the idea of a merwoman joining. 😃

                                                    That idea is quite possible. I do not know if this has been discussed yet but, I believe the next island that the Strawhats go to could be the Merman Island. There they meet a mermaid who could also be a musician.

                                                        Why does Franky try to get rid of what, the money? don't know, he seems to just like spending money by giving it away to people to eat and drink, not sure if there's a reason beyond that. If there is, either I missed it or it hasnt' been said yet.

                                                          He gets rid of the money for no reason. (at least the 100 milllion [or whatever it is supposed to be] he had left over)

                                                          He said it was uncool to have so much money left, and tossed it up in the air for everyone in the bar so they could get treated to drinks.

                                                          Man, I wished it rained money where I lived… ;-;

                                                                      2. Nami isn't used enough anyways.

                                                                      Maybe as a fighter…but that isn't Nami's main purpose. She's actually used quite a bit.

                                                                      Think about it. In every arc (or subarc) there's a character or two ignored as it focues on everybody else (Sanji's pretty left out at Little Garden, Zoro Vivi and Usopp at Drum, Chopper at Rain Dinners, Sanji and Usopp for the majority of Skypiea, Sanji Usopp Robin and Chopper at Jaya....I could go on.) No complaints here, because that's a lot of characters for Oda-sama to juggle, and he does a good giving those smaller characters a big part in the next arc usually.

                                                                      However, Nami is usually featured in every arc. Even if she isn't fighting, Nami is at the forefront of almost all the arcs--she's always involved in the action (with the exception of Don Krieg, of course.)

                                                                      Though sick/captured, she was featured in Little Garden and Drum. She was prominent in all parts of Alabasta, and even got to fight and create the plan to get Vivi atop the clock tower in Alubarna. She got to play a part in the first meeting of Bellamy in Jaya, and was seen for the majority of Skypiea. When I think about it, Nami was pretty damn prominent in Skypiea. She found the Holy Land first, and Hell, she was the only one to walk away from all her Eneru encounters without a scratch. Also, she's been in pretty much all of Water7.

                                                                      I like how much attention Oda-sama gives to Nami. He's slowly making her into a fighter, increasing her role and her already astounding presence. She can't be like Luffy or Zoro yet--in every fight or leading the charge--but Oda's working her abilities in there more and more.

                                                                      I always thought Nami was one of the more, if not most, well used characters in the series.

                                                                      and as for the topic, I can't wait to see Nami/Franky interaction. It's always funny to see her get stressed.

It's Robin who sits off the side the most often, but that's sort of her personality. She's obviously playing a large role in Water 7. Fortunately, One Piece is a long enough story that Oda can take an arc to focus on some characters more and others in another arc.

                                                                        And hoo-hoo, Nami interacting with Franky for the first time should be entertaining. 😁 I still have this feeling that Luffy, Zoro, and Nami will end up hitting or kicking Franky at least once more like Sanji did on the train for the trouble he caused.

                                                                                I´m sick and tired of rewriting why Robin is necessary to the crew so I´ll just quote myself:

                                                                                "People who bash Robin probably have no idea what pirate stories in general are about. It´s about finding sectret hidden treasures and each of such stories needs a person that can decipher mysterious maps, hints and languages. That´s what Robin does.

                                                                                Before One Piece I´ve never seen a pirate story where a cook, a doctor or a sniper got more focus then the one who´s deciphering a mysterious message. So face the facts kids, Robin has very much purpose to be on a ship that is searching for the biggest treasure in the world."

                                                                                • She told them actually about Sky Island. Without her they would have just though the log is broken and never would have thought about getting in the sky first.

                                                                                • She found the information about Montblanc Crickett. Without him they would have never went to Skypiea.

                                                                                • She actually found the golden city and the golden bell. Without her Luffy and Enel would never went up that high on the Giant Jack.

                                                                                She is very important. This is a pirate story for christs sake. Without her one of the most important characters for such story´s would be missing. Are they looking for One Piece or are they not. Who else should lead them there if not the character who´s sole purpose is to unravel mysteries?

                                                                                  Lemme tell you smething, if she acctually becomes a huge part of finding One Piece, like without her it would never happen, then I'll give her respect, until then I can't just keep planning for the possible future, ya know?

And yeah Robin may be useful to their piracy,but storywise she's pretty uneccesary most of the time. :sleep:

You COULD sat thet nami doesn't fight much, or that zoro doesn't directly do anything to help the ship, or that sanji is only there to cook( which he is not) and more but i'm not going to list them. Because of Robin they went to skypeia, if it wasn't for Robin ussop would ahve had been dead, enel would have went to the blue seas and they would never have found or about posieden or Roger. Luffy would also be dead if not for Robin.

I mean comeon, do you know how much harder it is to steer and navigate a ship than what's shown in OP?! :laugh: They really would need someone with the skill to do it,but in OP it's shown as simple as just riding a huge bicycle or something.

Nami is more like a bossy sister.👅 Anyway's zoro is a brute but so is everyone else basiclly. Besides being a brute doesn't help them. More they chose each other because they are nakama. zoro's role on the ship is swordsman and most likley first mate. since he was the first crewmate.

                                                                                                      i have faith in her though and i don't even like her, she's more anonymous than usopp's cowardiss and that's a problem, i saw in the latest chapter of the manga that Chopper's bravery's even surpassed Usopp's as Sogeking which is sad but meh, i guess Oda wants to keep that around as comical releif, by the end of the story i have a feeling she'll be just as important as Nami but not more so than Sanji/Zoro/Luffy/Chopper.

Now Robin, she has her moments but I don't see her as a key person.
