Why Oda? Pls let this all be a bait and switch and kill him already.

Based Carrotgod.

He's the dad
Brook,Nami, Chopper, Sanji and Robin, especially Robin, the first guy she's ever called handsome
He's pretty goofy for a straight man
They would have died if not for his expert handling
One Piece has never been about power level
They've wanted him since Fishman Island almost 9 years ago

Are you gonna go on this stupid bullshit if Carrot joins too? She's flat out their little sister

Not to mention Carrot is the Look-out for the Strawhat Pirates.

He'll replace Franky as the father figure? That's super lame, makes me like him even less
>Of course Robin is gonna call him handsome, because they all just love him so fucking much.
>They survived Aqua Laguna and travelling to the sky on an inferior ship with no helmsman.
>I dind't mention power level.
>They already have like, four straight men to zany antics.

>Franky the robot-crazy guy who was kicked out of fucking everywhere and is a perv
>Father
lmao are we reading the same damn comic

Franky has never been a father figure he's that wash out uncle you hang out with who buys you booze

Your father is an alcohol

Don't take it from me

>taking SBS as canon for characterization
I bet you think Luffy is Brazilian.

>>Doesn't have any goal that can be achieved by travelling with them
Only one I really disagree with. Jinbe will likely get inherit Fisher Tiger's and/or Otohime's dream of peace between humans and fish/merfolk. If Luffy is Joyboy, then the Straw Hats are going to be doing something with Fishman Island at some point, and it's probably in Jinbe's favor to be there with them to aid in the process.

>They would have died if not for his expert handling
Franky and Nami already do this though? There had never been a point in time where a helmsman was needed until Jimbei showed up.

not op..
still better than your headcanon..

Oda does update it to include newer Straw Hats, so it's a good place to look to see how Oda balances things. The family thing is pretty useless though since you can assign whatever relative role to any character.

What's "my headcanon"? I haven't said shit about Franky, except "he's not a father figure"

I agree that is probably how his arc is going to be solved, but how would he know any of this? The impression I get is that he just wants to join because he likes Luffy so damn much

Fair point. I don't recall if he knows anything about that prophecy, or about the Shirahoshi stuff. Maybe he believes Luffy's influence helped with the royal family and FI being more motivated to act on Reverie and all that and feels it's right to follow him and that pirate king status would benefit them somehow. I have no idea just throwing stuff out there.

There was no need for a carpenter til Franky showed up. Also Usopp is the lookout and gunner.

>There was no need for a carpenter til Franky showed up
The difference here is that it was abundantly clear from the point the crew reached the Grand Line that usopp's patchwork fixes were never a long-term solution and the entirety of Skypeia solidified the actual need for a better craftsman which was the arc directly before Water 7. But again, this was a recurring problem for the crew that their ship was getting damaged.

Jinbei having a role is fine, but it's easily the most contrived role to be handed out.

Jinbei's kinda been pushed since arlong and we always knew they'd get a fishman no matter how fucking boring those shitters are. Jimbo's the absolute best of them though, participating in best arcs and also flat out demonstrating powerlevels like hancock. Of course that setup was before there were yonkos to add that extra retarded pagoda level advancement cliche. If there were just shichibukai the overall plot would be about half over.

I get why Jinbei is on the crew. I'm not even mad he got in and Oda gave him hands down one of the best moments of the arc with his re-introduction this chapter.

I just call it like I see it though. The Helmsman role is just Oda trying to find a square hole to fit this peg even though the story hasn't really been concerned with filling crew positions since we picked up Brooks over a decade ago. God I'm fucking old

well he's not recruited because he's a helmsman, he's recruited cause he's jinbei. all the making excuses is really from carrot vs. jinbei vs? vivi?? shitters.

I don't think any additional members absolutely need a role. I'm guessing Oda gave him the title given that he's a fishmen but who knows, maybe he'll do something fun with the role in the future.

Maybe not to justify some vacancy but add some dynamic to sea-faring later. Hopefully.

Brook is less important

Jinbe is going to die in Wano

Brook is a thousand times more interesting and we never saw another crew member that could play songs.

If user on /a says it, it has to be true

Well his name is MONKEY D. Luffy and he is a pirate, that is evidence enough for him being a hue

>Bandido de chinelo e bermuda

What's Robins role on the ship again?

archaeologist since that's the central plot of the series.

>luffy: captain
>zoro: second-in-command
>sanji: cook
>ussopp: gunner, lookout
>nami: navigator
>chopper: medic
>robin: archaeologist
>franky: craftsman
>brook: musician
>jinbei: helmsman
Is that right?

"Comfort" Manager

Usopp isn't officially the lookout, and Zoro isn't officially second-in-command but rather a fighter (though he does act as first mate as a sorta secondary role). Also Franky is more accurately the shipwright. Craftsman sounds more broad - Usopp does craft stuff too, namely with his and Nami's weapons.

Being best girl

I miss Monet...

Archeologist and Nami's girlfriend

who is the cook of the beast pirates?

yonko crews seem too large to have just one cook. at that point it's more like, which cook is their best cook

Will we miss Kinemon after Wano?

She's the main protagonist of the series long B-plot, user. It just never feels like it anymore since arcs take years to get through now so we rarely get updates to that.

no, i want everyone not a part of the straw hats to gtfo already

this post made me realize punk hazard was 8 years ago at this point

I won't.
I really don't care about the samurai.

>Big Mom failed to kill this fucking fish despite him being right in front of her
Embarrassing to say the least

Will Wano be the longest arc or will something later somehow surpass it?

>this was almost 6 months ago

I've been waiting for these goofy ass samurai to go away and their excruciatingly long overarching plot to wrap up since 8 goddamn years

Finally somebody says the truth. Hopefully Jinbe gets killed soon. This man doesn't belong in any group, since he keeps changing from faction to faction. The least loyal pirate in all One Piece. Even Bellamy have more dignity than this clown.
