Ussop didn't refuse the call of adventure, he had a conflict with his captain and left, he was midway through his adventure
The call in One Piece can happen mid adventure.
Also again, Pedro's dream, the kozuki symbol in the world tree, Neku Inu flashback? The Dawn is not a new concept from Oden.
Okay, two things,
Can you show me in the manga how the mink were made aware of the dawn ?
And
Can you show me in the manga were the Kozuki are made aware of the dawn ?
It doesn't make sense to say they were waiting on the Dawn for centuries if in reality they forgot about it untill Oden found out
That's why I'm questionning it.
Of course I understand. I’ve known the concept for years although I admit learning its name only now. The reason why is because it is different in one piece and I wouldn’t really call it “the refusal to the call of adventure”. Usually in the scenario that you are talking about the Hero does not think himself something special, he or she does not believe they are up to the task. But when the situation arises and someone has to step up they are the first ones to take action.
Pretty much yes.
I understand the concept but honestly I don’t see it in One Piece. If you think I’m wrong. Please explain to me in more detail why you think you see the refusal to the call of adventure in one piece.
Because as I said, the refusal of the call for adventure can take a lot of faces.
Sometime as you said its the character questionning their abilities. But most of the time, its a simple "no, I have other things to do". And One Piece is heavely inspired by the heroes journey in a lot of ways so Oda didn't make an exception and did add the refusal in One Piece.
Schematically:
For Zoro: "I don't want to become a pirate"
For Nami: "I hate Pirate/I don't want to follow you"
For Usopp: "I'm not a part of this crew anymore" (the only one that is really debatable in fact)
For Sanji: "I can't leave, I owe Zeff my Life"
For Chopper: "I can't leave, I'm a monster"
For Robin: "I can't leave, it will only hurt you"
For Franky: "I can't leave my family"
For Brook: "I can't leave I need to recuperate my shadow"
For Jinbe: "I can't leave, I need to attend to my responsibilities with my other crew"
Each Mugiwara refused the call in one way or another, and its logical, it adds conflict and make us rethink "will they join or not ?"
