When you consider the medium, which is manga/anime, that many people don't consume at all, Zoro is indeed the most iconic.
Movies like Zorro and Star Wars are simply consumed to a much bigger degree and those characters are obviously known by more people. One Piece Live Action is there to allow Zoro to dethrone them all. :zosmug:

Star wars yes

But there is no way in hell more people NOW now zorro over zoro.

LA Zoro will never dethrone them. It's a B series at best lmfao.
It's a shitty show indeed but it will introduce Zoro to people who had no clue about Zoro before because they don't touch manga/anime.

Star wars yes

There is still a high number of people who know of Zorro while they don't know of Zoro, simply because they don't consume manga/anime.

To which levels though? It also depends on the following seasons and whether they are good or not. I mean, Darth Vader is known by the majority of the population. How's Zoro gonna dethrone that? Let alone dethroning Zorro?

Also, you cannot ignore Link and Cloud either whom are all well known by the gaming and anime/manga community - way more iconic than Zoro. Even non gamers at least know Link is related to the Zelda series whether they believe he's named Link or Zelda. At least they know he wears a green tunic.

Mask of Zorro is too ingrained in other media at this point. Even if it alone doesn’t get new movies or shows, the initial movies implementation in Batman’s backstory, arguably one of the most recognizable characters in the world, will always keep Zorro in the world’s mind.

Zoro has the advantage of not having his story finished, he will have around 10 years more to make an impact.
Possibly longer if LA continues or reboots at some point. Zorro and Vader are closed books, their popularity isn't increasing.
I have no clue who Link and Cloud are so cant comment on them. Imo, Zoro would be miles ahead of others if his medium wasn't manga.

No chance with the kind of direction the anime/manga is going rn. It's Nika Piece now. Heck, there are even two Nikas now.
Yes but their popularity is engraved on many, many, many, many, many and many people's mind. Whether they have closed story or not isn't that much relevant. Plus, Star Wars still gets produced till today.

Link is this fella:



You don't know that guy? Along with Kirby, Mario and Yoshi, Link is a very iconic figure in Nintendo.

And Cloud is the most iconic character in Final Fantasy, the most popular JRPG.

I think Nika Piece is only helping Zoro as people are not a fan of Nikas, lol.
When people see Zoro in Live Action, they might get interested to check out the source material as well.
People who never touched manga/anime will find out about Zoro through LA...

I don't know that guy. I know Mario only.
I have played once FF and the only guy I know by name is the guy with Cerberus guns.
