Well, Nami, Robin, Franky, and Brook didn't have their pasts revealed until well after their introduction. Ok, Brook's past was revealed in the same arc, but it wasn't like it was "Hi, I'm Brook, here's my life story: .........Rumbar Pirates............Laboon................Came back to life........................and now I'm here talking to you. There was a little time before he told his life story. Same goes for Franky.
