Talk:Battle Frankies/General Franky

Swordsman?
Are you sure the "robot" is a swordsman? Isn't Franky the swordsman (despite his crappy swordplay), not the robot? 01:24, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

I saw the robot as the swordsman since it was the one actually holding and working the sword, even though Franky was controlling it. I compared it to what Doflamingo did with Atmos. Atmos was using his swords while Doflamingo controlled him, but that doesn't make Doflamingo a swordsman, since Atmos was the one using them. Same idea here, only a different method of control. 01:41, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

But if the "robot" is a swordsman, wouldn't it make more sense that it's a cyborg? Part-living, part-machinery. 02:49, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

Well, it wouldn't be a cyborg since the robot itself has no biological components, just Franky controlling it. If you think of it that way, every ship and vehicle would be a cyborg since it has mechanical components with a human controlling them. If we consider Franky the swordsman, then couldn't he have been considered a Devil Fruit user on Thriller Bark when he docked with Chopper? I think "swordsmen" should only apply to the robot itself and not Franky. 04:01, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

But Franky swung the sword while wearing the robot. And if we go by the way you said, then wouldn't Brachio Tank V be a sniper, due to Usopp firing it? 05:08, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

Hmm, I'm not sure, because if that's the case then we could also say Usopp's Kabuto is a sniper and then that would bring almost every weapons user into question. I guess you're right, maybe we should leave it off and not have it on either of them. 05:13, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

I dont see why not. Its a Robot okay, but he uses swords: making him a swordsman. Its not like a ship..

Franken
Should Franken get its own page since it is a sword and every other named sword has a page? We should be consistent, I think. 05:54, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

The sword is an attachment. Not necessary, I think. --Klobis 06:12, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

Agree with Klobis, would be another unnecessary stub page. 12:13, August 25, 2011 (UTC)
