Honestly, I used to hate Pre TS Nami, but Post TS Oda blew it out of the park with her. Her arc with Sanji and other crew members in Zou/WCI was honestly amazing. I really felt she matured as a character a lot. She has certainly been better than Robin, Robin kinda feels like dead space to me at this point. Thank goodness she got all that info on Orochi's castle cuz she's been kinda a waste

Nami has always had a more appealing design even in pre ts
Robin has the better backstory
Nami's personality is more interesting to me
Development Nami blows Robin outta the water. Not even close
I honestly don't care about outfits but I'll give it to Nami since her Zou/WCI outfits were flames.
Nami has better gags/gag-faces

Nami > Robin

Robin.....though I agree with pre-TS Robin is badass as compared to post-TS...however, she is quite useful in Wano as she is doing stealth mission like she used to do and gathering information which is her forte...and she is the key to becoming PK....but Nami got so much development in WCI....hoping same kind of development for not only Robin but for all other SH.....

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 :robinsweat:

Gags - Does Robin even do gags?? :namiriously:
