1. Sanji
- Is the only member of the straw hats with multiple arcs dedicated to him.
- His history and family are still important to the plot as Germa even after WCI split relevant
- Is important in and out of combat arcs
- Is one of the wings which are the two most important crew members under Luffy

2. Zoro
- As a samurai and descendent of ryuma, has connection to Wano one of the verses most important countries
- Takes on the second most strongest crew members and is vital in combat portions of arcs
- Is one of the wings under Luffy

3. Nami
- Pre timeskip was way more important but the adventure portion of the story has diminished and the first island post timeskip Nami actually navigated the crew to was Egghead
- Unfortunately oda doesn’t use her in combat much except for as a damsel to be saved
- Is still one of the most important straw hats and is regularly on panel, even if it’s for gags and fan service

No where’s close. Ryuma was an Easter egg in Wano. Germa are actively making moves in the verse currently via Neo MADS.

Also Ryuma was compared to Wano Luffy because like Luffy, Ryuma vanquished a dragon but ryuma isn’t even one of the most important people in Wano history in terms of the narrative as the Kozuki who forged the poneglyphs and controlled Zunesha exist.

Sanji is more plot relevant by a good margin.

he is the god of wano aka the second most important place after elbaf

he can be connected to pluton (to this very day isnt explained )
he fought the WG and imu likely knew him too

his lore is saved in the final sage

He is not the god of Wano.
He’s not connected to Pluton as Pluton was put in old wano while Ryuma lived in Wano after flooding

1)he is the only one whos blade is worshipped and they deadass believe once his sword was stole wano was cursed
2)we dont know when pluton was sealed maybe ryuma sealed it
1. Wano is a superstitious nation. But Ryuma is not worshipped like a god. He’s treated like a legendary samurai.

2. We know canonically it was sealed before the end of the void century since the poneglyphs which were written during the void century state where it’s sealed.

1) he is called "sword god" they treat him as god
2)no we dont. no one knows when pluton was sealed away

1. They called a literal pig the mountain god but they don’t worship the pig. That’s just Wanos culture.

2. Yes we do?? As I said poneglyphs written during the void century spell out where Pluton is. Meaning it was hidden before the poneglyphs were written aka during the void century.

1)its to the point where wano folks believed when his sword was stolen wano was cursed
they treat him as a god

2)so again we dont know when it was sealed
