Talk:Hera (Gladiator)

Number
Are we sure about the no. 621? I say, from the scan we can't distinguish the first number and it can also be 4, so that the number should became 421. This would make more sense then 621, being him a gladiator previous to Luffy (so a number smallest then 556). Do you have a clearer raw or something like that? 22:30, March 27, 2013 (UTC)

Dude, it's a 6. 23:07, March 27, 2013 (UTC)

I've uploaded a pic with his participant # & I agree with DP that it looks like a 6. Lets keep it that way for now. We can easily change it if it turns out to be different when we get a better view of it.海賊☠姫 (talk) 23:35, March 27, 2013 (UTC)

But Luffy's number is in the 500s and he's the last guy to enter. I could see how that "6" could be a 4" 23:41, March 27, 2013 (UTC)

They may mix up numbers or something, so different opponents don't know who they're up against. It's a stretch, but a competition with 556 contestants, where the competition is apparently only for the strongest, seems like a stretch too. 02:12, March 28, 2013 (UTC)

Uh that's like ALL tournaments, Nada. They are given a number but are randomly matched up. SeaTerror (talk) 02:19, March 28, 2013 (UTC)

I know, but usually the numbers are 1 to however many contestants there are. Like if this competition went the usual way, there would be 556 with Luffy being the last. I'm just saying what if not only the matches are randomized, but the numbers as well. Like if they had 12 people, and 3 got paired up with 128,512. Just throwing an idea. 02:23, March 28, 2013 (UTC)

It's also a way of organizing the competitors. The first number would indicate the grouping, while the other digits would indicate placement in that grouping. So Luffy would be number 56 in group 5, and Hera would be number 21 in group 6. The point is there are tons of reasons the numbers don't line up. 02:27, March 28, 2013 (UTC)

I guess I have to wait for other gladiator numbers... 21:42, March 28, 2013 (UTC)

Anime
The anime made the "Hera" back-guy different from the swordman we who identified:

you can notice it from the helmett. are we going for the "anime made it clearer" or for the "anime fails, manga seems right"? 11:53, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
