The biggest influence on Sanji was Zeff not his family. And strictly speaking vin is from the latin since french is a romance language and wine is from the german since english is a germanic language. Also smoke is a germanic word.

You know I actually think Sanji has shown more influence from his family than he has from Zeff. Sanji's skills as a fighter and cook all come from Zeff undoubtedly but I think thats about it.

Thinking back to Mr Pink in Reservoir Dogs(the character in which Sanji is based), Sanji's style of dress definitely comes from his criminally organized family. As a matter of fact, Sanji was the only one who dressed in a suit on the Baratie. His love for the All Blue was established before Zeff entered his life. His love of women didn't seem to come from Zeff as Zeff himself got on Sanji about flirting with all the women who ate at the restaurant.

And most importantly when it comes to not kicking a women, Oda was questioned if it was because of Zeff being sweet on women. Oda answered that question in a somewhat round about way saying it's not that Sanji won't kick a woman, it's that he can't kick a women. He ended it saying "Also, Zeff is just a man among men".

I kind of take that to mean that Sanji's inability to kick a woman isn't related Zeff at all. Of course thats just my interpretation.

Also Zeff and Sanji's family seem like bad people. Sanji seems like he has always been on a higher moral ground than Zeff and if his family is as bad as we can imagine I'm sure the same applies to them as well.

Here's my question: on p. 80 of Volume 42, Sanji says "I was raised to never kick a woman." Would that have been a lesson from Zeff the Chef? Would that mean Zeff is very soft on women, as well? Tell me.

Oops, this one's from the same person as the last one. This is a good question though, so I'll answer it. When I drew Sanji vs Kalifa (Chapter 403), some people lauded Sanji's stance, and some people felt sorry for him. The truth is, I didn't really want to write those lines. Sanji doesn't have a "policy" of not kicking women; the truth is that he actually CAN'T kick them. He is a very proud man. I think he was really frustrated at that. think Nami recognized that, and chose to praise him for once. It's a scene that I hope will resonate with male readers, but everyone's free to take it as they wish. Also, Zeff is just a man among men.

Different personalities or appearances doesn't necessarily mean that they don't have a stronger link than characters we don't know about. It's like when Oda introduced the concept of inherited will he used the characters of Chopper and Dr Hiluluk as the example. They were very different but still shared something. Like we don't have to speculate that Chopper used the words Rumble Ball because his parents were English.

Gotta have something for ladies and gay men.

Anytime I see this thread bumped before Wednesday I expect interesting stuff
That's not what I was expecting.
At all.

Gotta have something for ladies and gay men.

As a bisexual man myself, I have to admit I was intrigued...Maybe if it was his ass or something. I don't need Zoro tits.

 

[Cloud Strife]

Dem pecks.

 

[Omnistalgic]

whoa, just took a 2.5 month hiatus from reading OP and it was the best binge ever! Went from about 801 to current last night. Soo good. Sanji sounds like Gon’s best friend in Hunter X Hunter now.

Can’t wait to see more of his roots.

For the movie

Judging by Robin's height compared to Brook's, Robin is apparently 8 feet tall in this movie.

Designs are a bit bland after Strong World and Film Z.

Super bland compared to the other two movies...sanji looks cool tho XP

 

[GhostBed]

Meh. Nami always looks the same anymore.

Clamp studio?

 

[Grexeno]

At this point the bra is basically an ever-present part of Nami's character design that can never be changed.

It sucks. Robin has been getting cool outfits post timeskip, but Nami has been boring af. Part of why I'm happy she's in her new dress. Still plenty busty, but at least it's a different outfit.

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Oddly enough i dont mind namis bra here simply because it adds color and is different. Hopefully they keep the trend and jut have these as the final battle outfits and have them rocking other clothes throughout the movie.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

What's with the Matrix getups? Are we going to see a heist or something?

 

[Tathanen]

Nah, she's just floating a foot in the air.

Franky, too.

 

[BatDan]

Well, it is called Film Gold. New World's biggest Gold Heist.

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Funny enough the villain looks just as bland with a pink suit...wonder what they are going for here?

 

[Sibersk Esto]

I expect to hear frequent leather scrunching noises throughout the movie

 

[IHaveIce]

Man you guys just reminded me it is on break this week

 

[everyday math]

Film is called gold and the island(ship) they're going to is big enough to be considered a country by the world government. It also looks like a giant gold casino.

Good chance this is Luffy's 11. We should be getting a trailer soon considering the movie comes out in a couple months.

 

[Nibel]

For the movie

Luffy in that Noctis-esque jumpsuit

 

[Chariot]

Yikes. Nami's legs look unhealthy. The fuck are you doing, Sanji? Give that woman some food.

Infact, Robin's legs looks rather bad too.

 

[everyday math]

Frankly is huge lol.

Usopp looks the best.

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Usopp,zoro and sanji look badass. Not feeling everyone else as much.

The possible antagonist looks like a rich douche, so it fits. I want to know what the story is behind that star-shaped scar on his back.

 

[Anteater]

he looks like someone who'd been beaten up by Sanji's plastic surgery shot

no one piece and it's still wednesday, this week sucks

Clearly he's a super joestar, so he has the Joestar birthmark, but much bigger

He could maybe pass as DIO

Fuck yeah. Great picks dude.

In all honesty, I'd have to go Alabasta, Marineford, and Dressrosa

Alabasta and thriller bark changes for me on the daily lol. Depends on the mood. I always get crucified for not having enies lobby(it's not even in my top 5

You should be crucified for enjoying Thriller Bark

 

[NSESN]

For me it's:
Alabasta
Marineford
Ennies lobby
But Zou should be in after it ends

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Thriller bark was better than enies lobby tho?...Xp

1. Sabaody
2. Water 7
3. Dressrosa

Dressrosa gets a lot of shit, but I think it has some of the most memorable moments in the series. Yeah, it's overly long and has too many characters, but so much good shit came out of it. Luffy's reaction to meeting Sabo is one of my favorite pages in One Piece. Zoro VS Pica is one of my favorite fights, the end is soooo good.

Robin, Usopp, and Franky all get some much needed spotlight as well. Robin stopping Hakuba was fucking awesome and hinted at her being significantly stronger than she's shown up to this point. Usopp unlocking his observation haki was hype as fuck. Franky VS Senior Pink was good and fairly memorable, but I'm excited for Franky to get in a serious fight with somebody. He could have thrashed Senior Pink if he wanted to, but he was obviously holding back a lot.

Also, the insane amount of world building that happened during this arc...We learned about so many new countries, armies, organizations, species (dwarves), powerups (devil fruit awakening) and pirates that hadn't been touched on before.

Agreed. The Senor Pink fight was super weird to me, obviously knowing why he was doing it, but that he coulda won easily.
