If Loki does join I want the other 3 sovereigns that represent the road poneglyph to tag along too. Even if it would have to be temporary obviously because they’re all rules

Momonosuke + Carrot > Yamato
Just like Oden Inu and Neko traveled with Roger. Yamato can stay in wano for now as its protector while momo temporarily leaves. Something Oden didn’t have
:finally:

Shirahoshi might just tag along with us to the final island

Surely this is bait.
Obviously :wellwell:

What do you mean every time? Yamato is the only character that was bait. I assume eventually there will be a new nakama because what's the point of bait otherwise?
Arguably, Carrot as well. During her WCI moments she did feel like a potential nakama with all the focus she was getting. And unlike Vivi she wasn't a princess or anything, she had nice chemistry with SHP, unique power, she could've filled a lookout position, etc. So while in Wano it was obvious to me she would not join, in WCI she was a very strong candidate.

Every character that looked like they might join isn't bait just because people jumped on the train. Yamato was bait because she literally said she was joining the crew and then she didn't.

I'm still considering Carrot as bait as well. She was teased on par with Yamato.
Yamato actually might still join, but sometime in the epilogue I guess.

Wano really wasted Carrot, and it's always a downer for the penultimate finale of the whole alliance you took one of the pivotal faces of minks and threw her into the backburner. I would've liked if instead of this poor revenge plot she stayed grouped with key characters and supported throughout.
 
We are far too close to the endgame for a new crewmate. Anyone joining now would have missed 95% or more of the journey and would only be a Strawhat by technicality. Even Jinbe's addition already felt somewhat late, though he at least had prior history with the crew.

Key moments such as Robin's rescue at Enies Lobby or the crew's separation and reunion at Sabaody are essential to their bond. A new member who was not part of those events cannot realistically feel as connected as the others.

New members of the Grand Fleet or allies in general make sense to me. Another Strawhat, right now, does not.
 
Those weren't bait, they were just characters people thought would join. Yamato is the only one that was explicitly teased to join the crew. If those others count, then every popular choice was "bait". Were Rebecca, Kyros, Monet, Pedro, smoker etc all bait just because people thought they were going to join?
Same thing. People theorized that they will join only for that too not happen. Carrot even travelled with them lmfao.
