Character Discussion Do people forget Zoro is referred to as Mr. Bushido?

#2
Given the recent discussion about who's a samurai and who isn't.

I wonder if some fans have forgotten or don't realise due to it being before their time, that one of Zoro's epithets is "Mr. Bushido"



Zoro and Mihawk are not joined to the hip like some of you think they are.
From what I’m gather it seems to me that some people either have a short term memory or did not read pre-timeskip One piece.

I’m leaning to the first because I saw people totally forget what happened in the current arc itself

Can someone please explain to me why Mihawk can’t be considered a samurai?

Izo = not a swordsman but still called a samurai
Zoro = not from Wano but still considered a samurai by some fans
Neko = not from Wano and doesn’t even use a sword but is still called a samurai

Mihawk = extremely skilled, honorable swordsman who cares deeply about his sword and was Zoro’s master, but not considered a samurai?

Sanji is also a Samurai.

Put simply Mihawk is clearly based on a European style swordsman rather than a Japanese one. He's unlikely to have been brought up with Japanese samurai ideals and styles.

He shares the same swordsmanship values as Zoro tho. If Mihawk went to Wano, everyone there would call him a samurai despite using a “European” style

Why is Neko called a samurai? He’s not based on a Japanese fighting style
