Re: One Piece -- Discussion
I consider himself "normal" in the sense all his abilities comes from hard work and training even the wield sword with his mouth (I recall a scene of young zoro training with weights in his mouth). Also the throwing a building didn't come till the Arabasta arc, and well if they were in the grand line after some months (?) of navigating I think they had surpassed most of the run of the mill pirates, even the ones who managed to get to the Grand Line

Re: One Piece -- Discussion
Zoro has enough raw strenght to swing a sword so hard to cut through steel and create enough air resistance to heat up his blade to thousands of degrees.
Who are more normal, again?thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar

Re: One Piece -- Discussion
Nami would be debateable I think. Of the whole crew, she's still the most normal from what I see. Her navigational skills are exceptional, but not superhuman. (And now to watch how the next few chapters disprove this!)thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar

Re: One Piece -- Discussion
Pre-timeskip I would have agreed, but from what we've already seen I'm convinced he has grown enough that his statement of no longer being in what he called "the loser trio" is completely true.
I'm definitely going to wait for Usopp to snipe someone from a mile away or further.Homebrewer's Signature | Avatar by Strawberries

Re: One Piece -- Discussion
Sorry, but my definition of normal is rather more along the lines of "does things that an actual, real life normal person could do". John McClane is a normal guy who's nonetheless badass. Zoro, on the other hand, was able to train to do completely impossible things right from the start of the series (throwing a building in Alabasta was before any of his later power-ups) and has gotten more and more impossible ever since, much like Sanji has. I don't care whether you achieve superhuman abilities through training, birth or magical powerups, they're still superhuman.
Nami so far had a more abnormal weapon than Usopp did, but otherwise she never actually showed any skills that are beyond the humanly possible. Usopp's aiming skills were already passing by the "normal" boundary at Enies Lobby, and now he added some rather less than normal weaponry as well.
Still, they're probably the most "normal" people left among the Straw Hats.You are a Rose, You are a blade

Re: One Piece -- Discussion
A good chapter, but I'm hoping we get to see what the rest on the Straw Hats are truly capable of. If you want to count Nami and Usopp's display at the bar an indication of their new strength, that means we still haven't seen what Frankie, Brook, Chopper or Robin are capable of.

Re: One Piece -- Discussion
Zoro. Zoro. ZORO!
Yeah, the Pacifistas have now definitely been Worfed. Who knows, maybe the Marine reinforcements from G1 will arrive in time to give the crew a fight. Right now, the only one whose strength might possibly matter compared to the Straw Hats is Sentomaru, and she's all by herself (sorry, himself, but he sounds AND looks so much like a woman it's hard to think of hir as male).Last edited by Lord of the Helms; 2010-10-22 at 02:58 AM.

Re: One Piece -- Discussion
I'm going to stray from the norm and say that Brook is the most normal.
Sure he's a liking skeleton, but that was because of Devils fruit. Other than his lack of flesh, he is a normal musician, who plays high-quality music.Fighter: "I can kill someone in a turn."
Cleric: "I can kill someone in half a turn."
Wizard: "I can kill someone before my turn."
Bard: "I can make three idiots kill people for me."

Sanji needs to stop wearing yellow and get back to wearing blue.

Re: One Piece -- Discussion
Come to think of it, Sanji is probably the most normal. Sure his kicks are really strong but it's not like he's using his mouth to wield a blade, sniping from huge distances with a slingshot or using lightning to decimate his opponents.
