Nami is the clear choice here, and it’s not particularly close.
Also who has the better:
Design
Backstory
Personality
Developmemt
Outfits
Gags
Design - I’m a sucker for red/orange hair, and while Robin’s angular look may be more classically beautiful, I think Nami is objectively prettier/brighter.
Backstory - Robin might take this one just because the trials and tribulations she underwent at such a young age were more globally focused, but Nami’s upbringing under the tyranny of Arlong and having to work with the man who killed her foster mother is a trauma she was still processing as late as Sabaody when they met up with Hatchan again. I’ll give Robin the edge, but this one is closer than the overall assessment.
Personality - Nami can be funny, angry, greedy, worried, brash, outspoken, intelligent, and kind; Robin says macabre things and barely changes her facial expression. This one is easily in the navigator’s favor.
Development - Nami’s been around since the single digit chapters, and Robin has almost completely receded into the background by this point. There’s still even minor intrigue around Nami’s true origins, something that’s not debatable for Robin.
Outfits - Bring back Robin’s cowboy looks, and then maybe she would have a small chance of beating Nami
Gags - Does Robin even do gags?? :namiriously:
