The characters of "One Piece" (anime about pirates) are distinguished by their bright characters and beliefs. This series has been on the screens since the 90s, and during this time hundreds of personalities managed to appear in it. Some of them were shown more often, others less often, but they are all considered the heroes of this anime. This article will tell readers about the main characters of the picture, their hobbies and goals.

Main character

All the characters in "One Piece" appear on the screen from time to time, but main character Monkey D. Luffy is featured in every episode. This guy gained the ability to stretch his body like rubber as a child. His grandfather was a Marine admiral and the boy admired him.

Monkey soon set out on his own, but his dream was to sail freely. He wanted to become the king of the pirates and conquer all known bounty hunters. Soon he managed to create a personal team, find a ship and set off to conquer the seas. At the age of seventeen, Monkey managed to visit many battles, and subsequently a reward of five hundred million belli (the currency of a fictional country) was placed on his head.

Close associates

The main characters of "One Piece" are both associates and opponents of Monkey. All of his closest associates are part of the captain's ship's crew. There is Roreno Zero called the Pirate Hunter, who always fights with three swords. At the same time one of them keeps clamped in his teeth. The thief Nami is the navigator on the ship, as she has the ability to recognize the weather and never leads the crew into dangerous waters. Usopp, nicknamed God, proclaimed himself the second person on the ship after Monkey, although no one admits this.

This man loves to embellish all his exploits, but is strong enough to use a variety of bombs and throw them with a slingshot right at the target. Sanji is the cook on the ship and values ​​his hands more than any other part of his body. In battle, he uses only his legs, and always holds a cigarette in his mouth, as he has been smoking since childhood. He dreams of finding a place where the rarest fish is found in order to cook delicious dishes from it.

Other team members

The above One Piece characters are not Monkey's team in in full force. It also includes Tony Chopper, who used to be a deer, but ate a rare fruit and turned into a human. He is a doctor on the ship and understands the language of animals. He loves research and even created a special drug that allows him to take on different forms in battle. Nico Robin is the archaeologist on the ship. She can grow flowers on her body and read Poneglyphs, which is what Luffy appreciates her for.

Frankie nicknamed Cyborg is responsible for the integrity of the ship. At first, he was an opponent of the pirates, but by coincidence, he joined Monkey and became his friend. Other characters in the One Piece anime are members of other crews, with the exception of the musician Brook, who has a position as a musician on the protagonist's ship. He uses his music not only for entertainment, but also as a weapon.

Other characters

In the One Piece anime, characters outside of Monkey's crew are also on the hunt for the treasure of former Pirate King Gol D. Roger. This man surrendered to the Marines (government forces) due to illness and announced a huge hidden treasure. Edward Newgate, also called Whitebeard, got closest to their search. He is the strong man in this universe. In battle, no one can hold him, and his blast waves hit everything around. It is this man who leads one of the most powerful pirate groups called the Four Emperors.

The One Piece anime characters from the Great Corsairs organization are the government's hand in the fight against sea wolves. They made an agreement that they would only attack other pirates and give tithes to the authorities. They include the strongest swordsman Dracul Mihawk, Empress Boa Hancock, the lord of shadows Gekko Moriya and other strong personalities. In the One Piece cartoon, new characters are always trying to look up to these strong warriors and take their place. These include the Eleven Supernova Pirates, as well as government organizations like the one called Cyperpol. These are far from all anime characters, because the number of episodes released has long been more than a thousand, and during this time hundreds of different interesting personalities have appeared on the screens to participate in exciting adventures.

As you know, Oda "sewn" into One Piece a huge number of references to real historical figures, legends and characters. In this section - all about the external similarity of the heroes of Van Piece and their prototypes!

Usopp is the main liar in Luffy's team, whose name is translated from Japanese and means "liar". We bet that you have already guessed that the presence of a long nose is clearly not easy ... Surely Oda borrowed the "liar's nose" from the famous Italian fairy tale Carlo Collodi - Pinocchio!

Luffy's characteristically spiky hair, Hawaiian shirt, and mischievous carpenter personality are reminiscent of Jim Carrey's character in the 1994 film Ace Ventura of the same name.

The similarities between the costume, gun and image of Van Auger and Adolphus from Terry Gilliam's 1988 film The Adventures of Baron Munchausen are obvious.

The prototype of Aokiji is the Japanese actor Yusaku Matsuda, who died in 1989; The image of the detective from the TV series "Tantei Monogatari" most influenced appearance admiral

Kizaru - Kunie Tanaka and his role as Borsalino from the movie "Trakk Yaro";

And Akainu - Bunta Sugawara; the admiral got his name from the trilogy "Soshiki boryoku: kyodai sakazuki" (1968-1971);

In Japan, there are 2 legends about little boy heroes who are dedicated to the spring holidays. One of them, Kintaro (golden boy - Japanese) - a copy of the appearance of Sentomaru, and the other, Momotaro (peach boy - Japanese) - gave him the character "peach" in the name (). Three admirals are also taken from the legend of Momotaro - on his way to the evil demon, the protagonist of the legend met a monkey, a pheasant and a dog.

Many fans believe that the image of Django was inspired by Ode by singers Michael Jackson (the famous moonwalk) and Stephen Tyler,

And declarations of love for the work of rapper Eminem in one of the interviews gave rise to rumors about his features in the image of the god Enel.

Trafalgar Law is very similar to the stereotype of a modern rocker boy and resembles one of the leading Mtv - Mystery.

Basil Hawkins with her make-up and transformations into straw man very reminiscent of Slipknot drummer Joey Jordison.

Whether it's a wicked irony or Oda's love of crunchy breakfasts, Foxy is the spitting image of Count Chocola from a box of chocolate cereal.

Snakes on Amazonia Lily - snakes from Walt Disney cartoons.

Emporio Ivankov as Tim Curry as Dr. Frank-n-Furter from the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

The team consists of 9 members, the total reward is 800,000,050 beli.

After the events in the Sabaody archipelago, all 9 members were separated from each other. During

for two years they trained in relatively isolated places, growing stronger for the sake of

to meet again and continue their journey.

Jolly Roger

The Straw Hat Pirates' Jolly Roger is an image of a traditional skull and crossbones, topped with a straw hat given by Shanks to Luffy. Also, this Jolly Roger can be seen on the sails of the Going Merry and the Southend Sunny.

Team Members

As a result of Luffy alone deciding who joins the team, the team consists of

completely diverse characters, making Luffy's team one of the strangest in the world

One piece. They differ so much both externally and in character that sometimes the composition of the team

seems random. They include: reindeer, which can change shape, becoming

similar to other animals (in human form, he looks like a gorilla, and in transition -

What really makes a team strong is mutual support. This became especially important for them in Lately. If someone is not able to fulfill the mission entrusted to him, another comes to his aid. This allows the team to give a worthy rebuff to the enemy in such cases where it is difficult to act alone.

After a two-year hiatus, the Straw Hats have become even stronger. This was because everyone was training with great masters - Luffy with Silvers Reilly, Zoro with Shichibukai Mihawk, Sanji with Emporio Ivankov, etc. Now each of the "Monster Trio" can destroy the Pacifist with one blow. Another example of strength was that they were able to defeat the monster Kraken in the water, where the strength of humans is reduced. Also, don't forget that Luffy defeated 50,000 pirates on Fishman Island with the help of King's Will alone. In addition, the Straw Hats made an alliance with Trafalgar Law, one of the Shichibukai, against one of the Yonko (Kaido).

Because of this, bounties were placed on the members of the team, depending on what kind of threat, from the point of view of the Government, each of them poses. If for other pirates the award is a reason for a hectic life, for Luffy's crew it is a kind of achievement, a sign of what popularity and worldwide fame they have achieved.

"Straw Hat" Luffy

As the captain of the team, Luffy was considered the most dangerous member of the team by the World Government. While Luffy was a rookie pirate, he received little attention from the Government, however, with each new daring victory by Luffy and his crew, he attracted more attention from the Government.

• First reward: 30,000,000 beli for defeating the strongest East Blue pirates.
• Second reward: 100.000.000 Belize victory over Crocodile, who was one of the Shachibukai.
• Third reward: 300.000.000 beli for defeating Rob Lucci (the strongest CP9 fighter) and Bruno, for organizing the attack on Enies Lobby, and for declaring war on the World Government.
• Fourth Bounty: 400,000,000 Beli for some or all of the following: defeating Gekko Moriya, attacking the World Nobles, infiltrating and escaping Impel Down with 241 prisoners, participating in the Whitebeard War, ringing the Signal bell (which was seen as an act of war), and for being the son of the revolutionary Dragon.

"Pirate Hunter Roronoa Zoro

Having clearly demonstrated his strength in battle with various opponents, Zoro was also recognized as a threat. He is the second after the captain, on whom the award was announced.

• First Reward: 60,000,000 Beli for defeating 100 Bounty Hunters on Whiskey Peak Island, as well as Baroque Works member Das Bonz.
• Second reward: 120.000.000 beli for participating in the Enies Lobby incident and for defeating Kaku from CP9.

"Cat Thief" Nami

While many are delighted by the awards given to them, Nami does not like being wanted. The photo was taken by a false reporter for what was supposedly a newspaper article, which is why Nami is standing in a seductive pose on it.

• First reward: 16,000,000 beli for participating in the Enies Lobby incident and for defeating Kalifa.

"King of Snipers" Sogeking

Since Usopp was hiding behind the Sogeking mask, Usopp's bounty was attributed to Sogeking. While most people understand that Usopp is Sogeking, Luffy, Chopper, and many of Usopp's villagers see him as two different people.

• First reward: 30.000.000 for participating in the Enies Lobby Incident.

"Black Leg" Sanji

Due to the fact that Attachchan of the Marines accidentally forgot to remove the lens cap, a photo of Sanji could not be taken. Instead, a rough sketch was made that only slightly resembled him. (The poster, by an incredible coincidence, depicted Duval, who had to hide for a long time because of a ridiculous drawing). This and other incidents are some of the misfortunes that plague Sanji. Nevertheless, he was recognized as worthy of the award.

• First reward: 77,000,000 beli for participating in the Enies Lobby Incident and for defeating Jabra.

"Cotton Candy Lover" Chopper

Chopper was considered an ordinary pet, not a threat, but nevertheless he is a member of the team that declared war on the World Government, so a symbolic, but still a reward is assigned for him.

• First reward: 50 beli for his team's involvement in the Enies Lobby incident and for defeating Kumadori.

"Demon Child" Nico Robin

While a false story was concocted for the public to explain the bounty on Robin, the Government considered her ability to read Poneglyphs a threat to world security. However, after Robin joined the Straw Hats, the Government began to regard her as a dangerous pirate as well.

• First reward: 79,000,000 beli for the ability to read Poneglyphs (official version: the sinking of six battleships of the Call of the Five).
• Second reward: 80,000,000 beli for complicity in the Enies Lobby incident along with the Straw Hats.

"Cyborg" Frankie

While his gang's involvement in the attack on Enies Lobby was kept under wraps, Franky's assistance to the Straw Hats against the World Government could not be hidden.

• First reward: 44,000,000 beli for complicity in the Enies Lobby incident and for defeating Fukuro.

"Singing" Brook

Brook received the bounty on his head in his past life, before his rebirth, but the bounty flyer is still valid.

• First reward: 33.000.000 beli for piracy.

Team relationships

Each member of the team values ​​friendship above all else, and despite occasional comic quarrels, they enjoy spending time together and are glad they joined this particular team. One of the main ideas of One Piece anime is boundless devotion and trust among the nakama. For the sake of saving a team member, his comrades are ready to risk the most important thing - their lives, and even postpone the fulfillment of their dreams. If even one member of the team is abused, whether physical or mental, the other Straw Hats take drastic measures to avenge their comrade and protect him, while knowing that each of them will do the same, they switch roles.

Recruitment

At the beginning of the manga, Luffy stated that he wanted 10 people to be on his team before moving to the Grand Line, not counting himself. However, due to circumstances, Usopp told Luffy that after the cook joined them, they would save Nami and sail to the Grand Line. And so it happened, but there is still evidence that the team will consist of 10 or more people. At the beginning of the manga, Luffy also stated that he would put together a team that would be stronger than the team of his childhood hero, Red Haired Shanks.

Invitation

Usually, Luffy's invitation to the team is immediately rejected. Luffy is smart enough not to force a person to join him against their will. The only exception was Franky, who turned out to be too stubborn to join the team on his own (having to steal his favorite swimming trunks and lure him onto the ship), but after Iceburg's words, he was touched and finally decided to stay with Luffy's team. If Luffy is truly interested in a person, he will try to coax him into joining by all means, despite that person's wishes. Some constantly refuse, others, convinced enough, enter for their own reasons. Sometimes, if Luffy is rejected, he will act as if the person is already on the team and no one cares about his own opinion on the matter, which is usually very annoying for people.

The exceptions to this rule were Usopp, who, excited and overjoyed at the offer to join the team, accepted immediately, and Nico Robin, who joined of her own free will and was able to talk the team into letting her stay. Notably, Brook, who had accepted Luffy's invitation, soon changed his mind, explaining that he had business on Thriller Bark and that without a shadow, he would die the first time the sun hit him. After defeating the zombies, Brook, having received the shadow back, asked if the team would approve of his entry, and already finally joined the Straw Hats.

Luffy doesn't think about whether the person he wants to invite has a profession or not. He allowed Usopp to become a member of the team and proclaimed him a sniper and gunner, Vivi is also considered their nakama, despite the fact that she does not have a specific profession. He also invited Gaimon to the team, who was of no use to the team at all (apart from his pirate experience).

Acceptance process

Even though most of the adventures in One Piece are random, recruiting follows a certain algorithm. First, a situation arises when someone new is needed in the team. The team runs into someone who suits them (eg Chopper as a doctor, Nami as a navigator). Luffy invites a person to the team and is usually rejected immediately (this leads to the comical situation where Luffy "refuses the rejection"). Meanwhile, a situation arises that one way or another ends up with Luffy fighting the main opponent, with the supposed newcomer playing a secondary role (for example, Luffy vs. Don Krieg while Sanji fights Gin and Parl). The rookie usually defeats one of the main opponent's assistants, or plays a key role in the victory of the Straw Hat (for example, Brook defeats Talleran and learns about the weakness of the zombies, despite being defeated by Ryuma). During the arc period when the newcomer is introduced, their past and dreams are also told. This is what convinces him to join Luffy's team. At this time, each member of the team finds an opponent of similar strength (for example, Zoro against Kaku, Sanji against Jabra, Chopper against Kumadori, Nami against Kalifa). In some battles, opponents of similar fighting style are also selected (Zoro vs. Hachi - both swordsmen, Sanji vs. Kuroobi - both experts in hand-to-hand combat, and Usopp vs. Chu, where both specialize in long-range shooting), where it is easier for Sanji and Zoro to find an opponent. This was the start of a popular misconception where fans believed that Vivi would become a permanent member of the team.

The only members of the team who were accepted otherwise were Nami and Robin, whose story was only revealed much later, despite being hinted at. Nami's official adoption came after Luffy, Zoro, Usopp, and Sanji defeated Arlong and his pirates. Robin was the first to enter of her own free will, after Luffy's team rescued her from CP9.

Luffy has stated several times that a musician is needed for the crew, as "pirates love music" and believes that this position is more important than others. As a result, no matter who the team faced, Luffy offered the position as a musician, even if it wasn't related to the current issue at the time. While Frankie, in addition to carpentry, knew how to play the guitar, Brook became a musician in the team.

Order of joining the team

Not counting Luffy, here are all of the Straw Hats in the order they joined the team.

In the manga, Oda placed Luffy as number one, thus moving each successive one by one. In the titles of the chapters of the manga, where one or another character joined the team, Oda wrote the number of the one who joined. Nami and Usopp were given a number after they returned to the team. So far, only Chopper and Robin have not had a chapter with their number, but in the anime, Robin, despite not having a number yet, has been assigned number 7. This means that she is ranked seventh on the team, including Luffy.

Return to the team

If a character leaves the team without the captain's permission, Luffy does his best to get him back. So far, only Nami and Robin have left the team without warning anyone, and both of them have returned. Nami returned after Arlong, who had been blackmailing her, was defeated and Robin convinced Luffy that the team would be with her even if it meant challenging the World Government and rescued her from Enies Lobby.

While Robin and Nami were on good terms with the team when they left, and suspicions that they had betrayed Luffy were debunked, Usopp's case was different. Usopp left the team with the captain's consent after falling out over the Going Merry due to his lack of confidence in his own strength. He returned to the team under the guise of Sogeking to rescue Nico Robin, and later planned for the team to beg him to return, but Zoro voiced his terms of accepting Usopp. He will return to the team only after he apologizes. After Usopp was ignored in his fight with Garp, he himself realized that he should apologize, and Luffy gladly accepted him back.

Every member of the Straw Hat has a dream they want to achieve. These dreams are their reason for joining Luffy's crew and the power that keeps them alive. Each Straw Hat's dream was born in their past, often accompanied by tragic events involving at least one person who was very dear to them. Some members of the crew, such as Chopper, Nami, Franky, and Usopp, achieve their dreams by accumulating knowledge and/or achieving certain results while sailing the Grand Line. The other crew members are looking for a specific person (Brook, Zoro), place (Luffy, Sanji) or thing (Robin, Luffy) that can only be found in the Grand Line. Regardless of the reason, all of the Straw Hats have become involved in the journey of the Grand Line, and every member of the crew refuses to die before reaching their dreams. For the sake of a dream, the team members are ready for anything, with the only exception - even in the name of the goal of their whole life, none of them will cause direct or indirect harm to their nakama.

Dreams of team members

• Luffy's dream- Become the Pirate King and assemble or found a "super-team". To become the Pirate King, he must find Gol D. Roger's famed treasure, One Piece, which is most likely located on Raftel. As for the crew, he has so far gathered 9 people who have attracted his attention. Luffy also intends to meet Shanks again and return the straw hat to him after collecting the strongest team in the world and become the Pirate King.

• Zoro's dream, shared with Kuina, to become the strongest swordsman in the world. To fulfill his dream, he must surpass every swordsman, including the world's current strongest swordmaster, Mihawk. More recently, Zoro nearly gave up on his dream to convince Shichibukai Bartholomew Kuma to refrain from killing Luffy. With this, Zoro proved his sincere loyalty to the Captain and the crew, as well as showing his belief that he could not become the world's strongest swordsman if he could not protect his captain's dream (Luffy also believes that the Pirate King should have the best master in nakama sword in the world).

• Dream Nami- draw a map of the whole world. She draws all the places she happens to visit, suggesting that Nami will create a map of the world by the end of the piece. At the start of the story, her goal was to get 100,000,000 beli to ransom and save her home village, Cocoyasi Village, from the clutches of Arlong the Fishman; when her savings, totaling 93,000,000 beli, were confiscated by Marine Officer Nezumi, Nami asked Luffy for help, and after a hard fight, he was able to defeat Arlong and liberate the village.

• Usopp's dream- become a brave warrior of the sea, like his father Yasopp. After the Little Garden arc, he also developed a new dream to visit Elbaf and see the giant warriors that Usopp idolizes.

• Sanji's dream, shared with Zeff, to find the All Blue, the legendary ocean. Most likely, it is located on the Grand Line, in some place where all all the seas from all four oceans gather into one ocean, bringing with them fish from all over the globe. He also wanted to find and eat the Suke Suke no Mi, but unfortunately, Absalom destroyed this dream as he ate the fruit much earlier. However, Sanji, seeing Absalom's disgusting actions, gave up this dream himself.

• Chopper's dream- to become the best doctor and create a panacea, Chopper owes these ambitions to his adoptive father and mentor Doctor Hiryuluk. On the side, Chopper dreams of traveling around the world with his friends, studying it and expanding his horizons.

• Dream Robin- find the Rio Poneglyph, which will tell the True Story, continue the research of her mother Nico Olvia, her old teacher and mentor Professor Clover.

• Dream Going Merry- to sail with the crew of the Straw Hats always, this dream of the Straw Hats was known before the death of the ship. The Going Merry failed to reach his dream last time he was seen during the ship's "funeral" in Viking tradition (because "the bottom of the sea is dark and lonely") However, Merry's spirit reputedly resides in the Straw Hats' new ship, the Southend Sunny, and thus his dreams may live on.

• Frankie's dream- Create a dream ship and travel on it, experiencing countless battles, overcome all difficulties and reach the end of the Grand Line on the ship. Franky created the ship that Luffy's crew is currently traveling on, and it's his job to look after the ship and keep it in good condition.

• Brook's dream- return to his nakam - Laboon, who was a member of the Rumba Pirates, the pirates left him at the Back Mountain for his own safety, with a promise to return after crossing the Grand Line. Brook wants to fulfill this promise made to Laboon 50 years ago by all the members of the Rumbar Pirates who died at sea - he must deliver Laboon to Town Dile with a recording of their deathbed performance of Binks' famous pirate song Sake.
