Wat


"Nakama" (仲間) is a Japanese word that directly translates to friend, comrade, and under some context such as One Piece, crewmate.

While Luffy and his crew are treat each other with respect, most other pirates do not treat their so-called "nakama" with as much respect as they do. There are some exceptions, like the Arlong Pirates and Buggy Pirates, after Buggy's fight with Luffy. Others, like Don Krieg and Crocodile, do not have any respect for their crewmates/associates (but still know that they are essential for maximum success) while some pirates even willingly kill their own "nakama" such as Kuro did.

Most "good" pirates in One Piece treat each other with respect; the Straw Hat Pirates being an obvious example. However, this is also exhibited by the Red Hair Pirates, Whitebeard Pirates, Rumbar Pirates, and, oddly enough the Blackbeard Pirates. Foxy however, treats his crew differently. He has a rather massive crew of 500 members, and is perfectly willing to risk his crewmates in several games known as the Davy Back Fight. In the games, one can be forced to become someone's "Nakama" against their will.

Conversely, one of the tightest knit crews in the entire series, the Whitebeard Pirates do not often refer to each other as "Nakama", but act as though they are family, referring to their captain as "Father" (Oyaji). Amongst the Whitebeard Pirates, the one iron rule is not to kill one's comrades, and when Marshall D. Teach broke that very rule, he was condemned by every member of the crew to death, but he escaped and murdered his former "father" as well.

Nakama was first left untranslated by a fansub group known as "Kaizoku Fansubs", during the Arlong Park Arc.
