Which fights do you think were defining moments for each character?
I'd have to say:
Luffy: vs. Crocodile
Zoro: vs. Mr. 1
Nami: vs. Miss Doublefinger
Usopp: vs. Chuu
Sanji: vs. Kuroobi
Chopper: vs. Ohm
Robin: vs. Yama

I only have one for Luffy…..Vs.Kuro, it just showed what type of person he was.

…...
I'd hoped Luffy's defining fight would be against krieg. Luffy showed just how strong a will could be, to take whatever comes at it and keep getting up. But yeah, his defining fight was against Croc. It's more typical of him to boast and then get beat like a dog and manage a win after a while.

You know, I can kind of see where you're coming from on this 'every fight is definitive' thing, but I gotta question it.
Tell me how exactly Zoro and Sanji's fight against the three parts of a McDonald's hamburger is critical to their character again ?
-
What the hell….those are all the fights. Defining fights shows a character's traits their best and all that, joe.
-
y would u list gedestu's fight with chopper. chopper was like a coward the whole time. mr 4 and drum fights were better
Say what? Didn´t you list the Chopper vs. Aum fight first? No matter if he was a coward back then, the defining points against Gedatsu is that he suprassed his own fears by fighting him.
-
Hmm. Zoro vs. Mihawk was definitely a landmark event. But somehow I think that vs. Mr. 1 was more definitive.

Why would Usopp's defining fight be with Chuu and not Miss Merrychristmas? The battle with Chuu lasted about a minute, and there wasn't actually any fighting going on rather than Chuu trying to shoot water at Usopp and Usopp hiding until the perfect time to strike. With Miss Merrychristmas, Usopp was smashed into countless walls, was in a bunch of explosions, and had his skull cracked by Mr. 4's bat. I think that would be more defining, since he refused to believe Miss Merrychristmas when she said Luffy was dead, and he didn't give up. I think that was saying a lot more about him than the battle with Chuu.
-
Because I think majority here aswell as my left seem to take defining fights as fights in which the characters surpassed themselves by attitude, spirit and determination. I don´t think that this is just about pulling a super awesome new move.
That said Usopps fight with Chuu was defining because he actually first just wanted to trick Chuu to avoid a fight, but then he realized that if he doesn´t give his all he doesn´t have the right to be among his friends. Therefore it was defining for his spirit as a Strawhat pirate. Before he just opposed the Kuroneko pirates to save his village which also means much but it just didn´t determine his Strawhat spirit. -
Well, it was his first real fight. Sanji, Nami, Chopper, Luffy, Robin, and Zoro had all been in fights years before appearing.
Usopp's original plan was to run, and it was somewhat acceptable, because he'd basically just been the comedy character up until then. But, he got up and spoke about cowardice, hard work, and all that, and then went on to…...win a fight against something he didn't think he could beat.
The 4 fight was entertaining, but pretty much just more of the same.

All fights in Arabasta changed the characters. Some to a greater extent some not so great.
Nami vs Doublefinger, Usopp vs Mr4 and definetly Zoro vs Mr1, and this last even greater than Zoro vs Mihawk where he knew he would lose but he couldn't help it, were more defining than Chopper participation in Mr4, Sanji vs Mr2 and Luffy vs Croc.Chopper vs Gedatsu came in mind right away. He surpassed his fear and faced a aparently stronger (and dumber) enemy. Against Drum ppl also but i fit this in the same that Usopp vs Kuro/Jango and Sanji vs Guin/Pearl, wich i don't put as defining but as the ticket to prove mugiwara worthy
Luffy vs Usopp was much more defining than Croc, not for the fight itself but the moment. Also Smoker, when he accepted that there are enemies he couldn't defeat (yet).
Robin i don't think has one. Yama she was just pissed, but not much changed, and if i had to put one i would say Aokiji where she realized she couldn't scape the WorldGovt but she's about to have a defining moment again.
Robin vs tashigi was defining for Tashigi.Usopp vs Merman that shoots bubbles. With the whole i can't keep my pride thing.
-
While Sanji v. Bon Clay was damn entertaining, I don't think it really developed his character any more. It made him all that much more badass, sure, but it didn't really add anything.
I don't really count Luffy v. Usopp in this. It was a conflict, not a resolution.
And it's just too painful to talk about sobsI don't know if this really counts, but perhaps Robin's most defining "fight" was the Donut Race. It was the first time she really cooperated with her nakama.
