However, even if he is rejected, Luffy will treat the person as if they were already a crew member, much to their annoyance. While most people turn down Luffy's offer regardless of how hard he tries, only those convinced enough will join for reasons of their own. However, if the person interests Luffy very much, he will still try to get them to join anyway regardless of their initial decision. The only exception was Franky who was stated to be too stubborn to ever accept joining Luffy willingly (his swim briefs had to be stolen just to lead him back to the Straw Hat Pirates), but ends up joining willingly anyway after being moved by Iceburg's words. Luffy did not directly ask Usopp to join the Straw Hats, however when Luffy, Zoro and Nami were about to sail off, Luffy assumed that Usopp would join them as they had just fought off Kuro. When Luffy asked Brook during the Thriller Bark Arc, Brook said yes immediately. Luffy never forces people to join his crew against their will. Thank you so much to all the ONE PIECE fans all over the world for casting so many votes!Ī video has also been announced in the coming days, featuring 11 of Luffy’s voice actors from around the globe reading some of the character’s most memorable quotes in local languages.Usually when he asks someone to join, Luffy is turned down completely though the way of which he is turned down varies.
One piece character plus#
That didn’t get past the production team! (laugh) It’s amazing how different the preferences towards these characters are all over the world and it was so fun seeing how it went down for Robin and Carrot.Īs I promised, I’ll be creating a cool piece with the characters who ranked in the top 50 plus some others, so please look forward to it. I heard that there seemed to be some movements online organized by fans to come together to cast votes for unexpected characters. Some characters went up in the rankings since the midterm results, so it was truly entertaining. Usually, this character ranking poll is only done in Japan, but by opening it up to the world through the internet, I was able to see in real time a glimpse of which characters are popular in different regions of the world.

Series creator Eiichiro Oda had plenty to say in a new letter penned for the event. It was nice to feel the sense of togetherness that fandom can give us, and we applaud the show for reaching out to interested parties! As the slogan for the poll was ‘WE ARE ONE,’ emphasizing the passion fans have for the series beyond borders and language, the special featured 22 One Piece mega-fans from 12 different countries as special guests.
The results were announced on a special episode of the ONE PIECE TIMES web series, premiering on the official One Piece YouTube channel today, 5 May. In nearly two months of polling, 12 million votes were cast for over 1,100 different characters.Ĭuriously, the results shift a bit when accounting for region, with Nami holding the top spot in Latin America, Europe and Oceania and Zoro reigning supreme in the Middle East and Africa. Navigator Nami and chef-extraordinaire Sanji follow, with the fearsome captain of the Heart Pirates, Trafalgar Law rounding out the top five.
Luffy holds the top spot, with the sword-slinging Zoro sitting in close second. Unsurprisingly, our beloved and very stretchy main protagonist Monkey D. Regardless, the results have finally been tallied, and worldwide fans have spoken! Back in January, fans of One Piece were asked one question: who’s your favorite character? Celebrating 1,000 chapters, SHUEISHA didn’t keep the question within Japan’s borders, instead putting out a call to action to wannabe pirates around the globe.ĭepending on who you are and how long you’ve been sailing the high seas with the Straw Hat crew, maybe that question isn’t simple at all.
