Talk:Roronoa Zoro

hi I just want to say that in my opinion Zoro is not an atheist, he is an agnostic, that is more accurate, because once in the Enel saga he states he doesnt give a damn if god excist or not, instead of saying that he doesnt believe in god, im searching for the episode or chapter but i cant find it, also it may only be a translation difference, thats why i want to check, oh and sorry for my bad english, really!!! bye! "ISMAEL VC"

Should we gives Zoro's swords their own articles? Not the unnamed ones just the famous ones? Cody2526 04:45, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

We already did.... I check and make sure.

Zoro's sense of direction (or lack of it)
In earlier episodes, it was Luffy who had this weakness. Somehow it became Zoro's. Anyone else noticed?

For example in ep. 12 (Kuro arc), Luffy ran towards the other side of the island where Kuro's men have landed. He kept running around the island lost, not knowing how to go north. Zoro, stuck in grease thanks to Nami, was able to leave several minutes later but somehow he and Luffy arrived at the same time to save Ussop and Nami.

Another is ep. 48 at Loguetown. Luffy got lost in town looking for the scaffold where Gol D. Roger was executed. On the way he met Smoker and asked for directions. Smoker told him that it's the way the smoke is blowing, and so Luffy went. However, Luffy got lost again and ended up at Bar Gold Roger.

I'm trying to find exactly where Zoro started to be depicted as bad at directions. But I'm quite certain it's after they got to the Grand Line.

This is just an observation. Maybe Oda Sensei realized (later) that Zoro should have some sort of weakness. Luffy already has several weaknesses - the sea, being a 能力者, and sharp and pointed objects. So he "gave" Zoro this one and took it from Luffy. –


 * Please sign your posts with ~ and remember this isn't a forum.  That said, Zoro still got lost between leaving the slope and arriving.  They both have bad direction senses but Zoro's is worst.  One-Winged Hawk 19:03, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Sorry I'll sign from now on. Thanks for the comment. But no, Zoro didn't get lost. If you have a collection of the anime (I do) please check ep. 12. Zoro just got away from the grease and the next time he was shown was with Luffy beating up Kuro's guys. In the manga, it's Chapter 29 "The slope" page 11 where Zoro escaped the grease and page 21 where he appeared at the north slope - without getting lost. Yohohoho! 06:19, 6 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Okay then ingore me I'm wrong. I should rewatch the Kuro arc... I seem to be slipping up on things.  :-/  One-Winged Hawk 14:08, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

just wondering, can anyone recall where the quote (see the article on zoro) made by sanji on zoro's absurd direction sense came from?red_devils_27 09:19, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Uh, wow. Wasn't Zoro first introduced as wandering from island to island hunting pirates because he was completely and utterly lost? This has always been a major element of his character.

I think he started when they were hunting a south bird with Robin. Zoro: I know you are hiding your true intentions, I still don't trust you. Robin: But that's the way back... Chapet 230 page14 --Coldhandzz 03:12, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

 * He has been spent somewhere else, just like with Perona. --One-Winged Hawk 07:59, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

o.O And where did you get this information? SailorShiningLight 05:52, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

Just keep reading the manga ^^ -Time Time no mi/ Josetok 17:31, 29 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Joe posted that before the spoilers were fully out... This is why we don't allow spoilers on here before the chapter is out on Thursday/Friday. --One-Winged Hawk 21:39, 29 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Can someone find pandaman :D or maybe something weird on this pic?Thenewjericho 04:14, 10 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Not a forum! Don't use our site for this sort of thing. Yes, many of us have seen the twin Zoro's on that image by now.  One-Winged Hawk 07:14, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

So where is he now? POST Kuma
He was sent to where Perona is, but for what reason. It was evident that each member was sent to a place to strengthen themselves...so why a haunted castle for Zoro?

What are your thought?

Zoro is the First Mate
We should change the theory that fans only think Zoro might the first mate. He is the first mate.

In One Piece 499 (manga), page 17, Urouge says: "Only the First mate, and yet he has a bounty of..." (as proof)

Well, there are obviously more reasons. In times of crises, zoro says what to do when that idiot luffy doesn't know what to do. He's called the champion of luffy and the only one who is able to compete with luffy (although it is ridiculous how much power luffy has without even training...)

and i hope there aren't any idiots here who start of with saying "but sanyi is also as strong as.." or "nami's giving most of the commands in daily life"

sanyi is the third strongest fighter, that's it. i would even say that nami may have the position of the second mate, simply because zoro doesn't have the time of controlling the daily life. he spends his time with training and sleeping, as you all now. BUT, if there are really difficult decisions to make, zoro's the one to help out.

last argument: zolo is the one luffy trusts the most. that's what the first mate is for.

are we gonna change the article? --Funk--


 * While technically Zoro is the first mate, he hasn't been actually addressed as that. The Urouge thing was mistranslation if I'm correct. Also your other reasons, other than being a bit ranty, are kinda viewer based. Indeed Zoro has some things that the rest of crew doesn't have, however that doesn't change the fact that he wasn't addressed as the first mate.Mugiwara Franky 20:35, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
