User blog comment:Yatanogarasu/Luffy: Reincarnation of Roger?/@comment-1984061-20101104215246

in the question above it should be yes or no.. the second choice is out of context, personally i voted no. Some deep stuff what u said.. but i do not support it.. the straw is da same one roger had, he gave it to shanks (possibly also explained to him the will of D) and shanks' own judgement is what got luffy the straw hat.. the reason why luffy is so protective of ace is because ace is so protective of luffy, and the more deep reason is because garp got him joined with luffy and they grew up together. And if luffy is a reincarnation of roger then the same hypothesis applies to the rest bearing D in their name, like garp,.. who i think is possibly older than roger.. or maybe even portgas d rouge.. rogers wife, yikes.
