First of all i am a pattern believer, so i am going to point out every nakama theories that had been made by other person in the past, and try to tie them up to the possibility of Yamato joining the crew. For those who dont believe in pattern, feel free to believe what you believe.
Second, im a very lazy person, too lazy to put image, and sometimes too lazy to explain things that are already obvious. Also, there might be others that made a thread and pointed all of this, but again I'm so lazy to scroll down. so im sorry for all the inconveniences.
Third, i'll do my best to make it short as I believe most readers here are already familiar with the pattern theories.
Allright lets get going
1. The mfmm pattern.
- In east blue, nami is joining after Zoro
- In Paradise, Robin is joining after Chopper
- In NW, Jimbei is already joining and take the the first male spot in mfmm pattern. Lets stick to the pattern that the next one will be a female.
There are a lot of potential female candidats I know, but im going to stick to Yamato as the female that will join next to Jimbe as She fits the most in every existed patterns.
2. All the females characters have a role that is related to the direction of the journey so that the crew won't get lost.
- Nami is a navigator, no need an explanation here.
- Robin can read Poneglyph, well without her, no-one can read those red poneglyphs which is the key to go to Laughtale.
- As for Yamato, She holds Oden's Journal for 20 years. I believe it will play important role for the strawhats to know which direction they need to take. There must be some important informations related to how to reach Laughtale or at least where to find the last red poneglyph.
3. All the female characters are members of the a pirate crew in which they didn't really want to be a part of.
- Nami was a member of the Sun pirates.
- Robin was a member of baroque works.
- Yamato is a member of the beast pirates.
4. The alphabet pattern.
This will sound farfetched for Yamato to fit in the pattern, but I believe Oda intentionally put some Twist on his patterns such as Yamato consider herself as a man and she consider herself as 'Oden'.
Alright here it goes the pattern :
AB Brook
CD Chopper
EF Franky
GH ????
IJ Jimbe
KL Luffy
MN Nami
OP ????
QR Robin
ST Sanji
UV Ussop
WX ????
YZ Zoro
I believe Yamato will fit the OP slot as She consider herself as 'Oden'. Yea as I said it sounds farfecthed, but it is just my opinion.
I know that Pudding also fit that slot if it is only by her name, but her devil fruit doesn't fit the gorowase patterns that appeared in SBS (I forgot which volume and too lazy to do some research. And I won't point out that pattern in this theory as it isn't confirmed that Yamato has a devil fruit.)
I know Carrot's fan will say that OP can stand for Carrot with an excuse of her inheriting Pedro's will but She never consider herself as Pedro, yet Yamato keep calling herself 'Oden'.
5. Parallel to Chinese novel, Journey to the West.
I think it is obvious that the manga is a parallel of that novel, there has been so many theories about this even a really good one mentioning that both story is a journey from east to the the west ( China to India, East blue to Laughtale).
So let's see the parallel of that novel with Shs crew :
- Luffy as Sun wukong, the Monkey king, obvious.
- Sanji as Zhu Bajie, the pig (Woman lover, related to food)
- Jimbei as Sha Wujing, (both are water creature that become stronger when they are underwater)
- Zoro as Tang Sanzang, the monk, ( it is an interesting twist that in the novel, it was the monk that freed Sun wukong from the mountain prison, and in the manga it was Luffy who freed Zoro from Morgan's prison as if the monkey King freed the monk)
- There is another character in that novel, which is the white dragon horse that carried Tang Sanzang throughout the journey. And in that novel, the horse is the son of the Dragon King. We know who is the dragon here in the manga and he also have a child. So Yamato represent the white dragon horse.
As for color scheme, animals, and other patterns, I'm just too lazy to do the research and to point them out, again, I'm sorry.
So that's it. For me, Yamato is joining. Hopefully you guys enjoy the read and I'm sorry for my bad English and grammatical mistakes.
I might not respond to all of the commentary if somehow anyone is interested enough to drop a comment or two, please excuse my incredible laziness for that. My main purpose is just to express my thought.
