User blog comment:Zetman SeiwaGenji/What rank would the following characters have if they were in the Marines?!/@comment-99.226.22.202-20121206231753/@comment-5807326-20121225033543

A very good point, I never really thought about it that way (comparing it with Drake's former rank) ! Indeed, it does seem strange, the only reason i've ranked him a rear admiral is that we don't know if he can use busoushoku-haki. The thing is I'm pretty sure he can, and if that's the case without a doubt Sanji would be a Vice-Admiral!
