No.
Luffy saved Robin, and because of that robin Said her life was his responsibility.
She wanted to die, and Luffy "forced" her to stay alive.
That's why Robin never forced Luffy to nothing.


After Luffy saved Robin, she joined and asked formally to join.
and Luffy saved Yamato by destroying Yamato’s explosive shackles so Yamato can be free to do her own will. Nothing different

what you are doing is repeating the reason robin presented to force luffy to accept her. he never planned to have her in his crew, he was even angry when she first mentioned it. but after she presented her view of the situation and said she was his responsibility now he said ok.
she imposed herself and luffy was not against it. that is not a trait that is negative to someone becoming a straw hat.

so she was not invited and luffy just went with it. it's what i said.
robin imposed her place in the crew she was not invited. she was not there because luffy wanted her to be with them, he was just not against it.
Robin literally asked Luffy to let her join. Her logic was that Luffy had to since he saved her life and Luffy just said ok as she wasn't a bad person.
 
Robin was the opposite. Luffy accepted Robin before everyone else. For Oden it was WB who was the only one who didn’t accept him.

And I think Luffy probably needs Yamato to get to Laugh Tale, because I think there will be something in Oden’s journal that is needed if not the journal itself.

Luffy has his own crew, but his top fighters parallel Roger’s strongly. Luffy - Roger, Zoro - Rayleigh, Sanji - Gaban, Oden - ?. It isn’t Robin. She doesn’t have the combat prowess. Jinbe? As much as I love Jinbe I don’t believe his combat prowess is analogous to Oden’s.

But regardless, my actual initial rebuttal of your claim is that Yamato joining in a manner that parallels Oden is a reasonable rebuttal to her “not being allowed to force her way onto Luffy’s crew”
NOT ALL IN ONE PIECE IS POWER LEVELS!!!
AND NOT ALL IS 1:1...
Robin does what Oden did in Roger's Crew, that's her parallel...Not to be as strong as Oden...

The context is what it matters.
Yamato is "forcing Luffy" because she couldn't sail with Ace (His Choosen One).
That goes against Lyffy's freedom...

As well the fact if luffy does defeat Kaido it does initiative of a motivational drive her even more to join his cause. Luffy usually deals main threat that trouble his crew personal level.
zoro-helmeppo
Nami-Arlong
Ussop-captain Kuro
Sanji-don krieg
Chopper-wapol
Robin and Franky-had world government
Brook-moriah
Jimbei-hordy

Until we find out that Gaban was also the cook on top of already being the navigator, I think the major parallels between those characters happens to be their place as fighters. Yamato simply completes the quartet quite conveniently.

Oden being Roger’s final crew member before he became the Pirate King is as important as his role on the ship imo. Just as Rayleigh/Zoro have an important parallel as the first.

Realizing that power levels/hierarchies exist in parallels is not believing that power levels are everything, it’s simply paying attention to a pattern.

If Yamato doesn’t join it won’t make Robin ~ Oden a parallel. It would just mean that Luffy doesn’t have an Oden.

By your logic Luffy’s Gaban is Nami and not Sanji.
 
Each time a member joins it’s supposed to be unique. Franky had the whole balls twisting moment, Robin literally forced Luffy to accept her, Brook asked Luffy to go with him after Luffy asked him too. Jinbe was away for almost 300 chapters, and even when it looked like he was officially going to leave with them Luffy had to demand the he goes back

how a member joins is irrelevant in this conversation

It's a terrible idea to bring up ''chosen ones'' as some kind of argument against Yamato while being a Carrot supporter.

Good luck getting through to the big brains, man…I’ve been saying that shit about the nonexistent “pattern” in this thread for a long time now. You know the ones who are still clinging so tightly to this grand Carrot delusion aren’t gonna be swayed by your reason, but I’m glad I’m not the only one who recognizes that the recruitment process is anything but uniform.

Carrot still hasn't realised any of this Choosen one thing...
She has to know why did Pedro Sacrificed himself...Why to follow Luffy, and that has nothing to do with the Choosen one...
Anyways Carrot can't join if the circumstances don't change

she never asks. she says he wants to join and that luffy has to let her join because she is his responsibility now, he just agrees.



of course he still needs to give the ok because he is captain but my point is that he was not asking her to join and it was her decision to do so and she imposed it on him against jmena argument that a straw hat would not do that.

I actually think Luffy’s final crew mate being the one to force themselves onto the ship and making him come around to the idea through their relentlessness would be a fantastic gag after all the times Luffy relentlessly hounded most of his current crew into joining when they kept telling him no.

…That’s effectively the same thing, dude. The way she phrased it isn’t the most important part, the intent all along was to join his crew. Just because it was said as a statement rather than a question is completely immaterial; Luffy responded the way he would have if it were an actual query, so the end is the same regardless. Everyone here knows that Robin approached Luffy to join, not the other way around, so I’m not sure what the point of this whole discussion is.

you and Van should go back to jmena's post i originally answering to and you could understand what is the point so maybe you would stop disagreeing with what is not the point.

"i wanted to die, and you made me live, that was your crime"
"I have nowhere to go, and nowhere to return, so let me join your crew"

"Well I GUESS IT CAN'T BE HELPED"
Robin's life was attached to Luffy since the moment he saved her life without Robin's desire.
Even Luffy realised this, but OK.

Plus usually when you think about someone who is relatively the last in anything to join the team or group of people. They are usually relatively powerful. Think of super sentai/power rangers, digimon and etc.
