I say this because Sanji has/will have 2 fights so far where
Sanji battles a possible bad future for himself .
one with queen who represents science/German tech.
one with sommers who abuses love to hurt people with it.
I have to add that Sanji is a foil to Luffy ( which fits the color themes Luffy being red and Sanji blue) in many ways
So, I was thinking that Luffy and Sanji are like two sidesfrom the same coin, ‘cause there are some aspects of them that are the same or at least really similar, but some others are just complete opposites
(This is going to be pretty long, sorry, so I’m dividing it in blocks, which may be a lil messy, sorry)
Appearence:
Both, are thin, but, while Sanji is tall, Luffy is short. Sanji has blond and well brushed hair that covers part of his face, but Luffy’s got black messy hair. Both have a “mark” on their face, Luffy’s got his scar, Sanji’s got his eyebrows.
Sanji always wears formal clothes that are black, whileLuffy wears informal clothes, which are bright colored.
Fighting Style:
Both fight without anything else but thier body, but while Luffy’s a Devil Fruit user, Sanji’s not. On the other hand, Sanji’s the best swimmer in the crew. Also, Luffy uses mostly his fists to attack, while Sanji uses only his legs (well he uses knifes in his fight versus Wanze, but just one fight, so let’s ignore it).
Personality:
Most of the time, Sanji’s composed and mature, but there’s a lot of moments when he’s really childish. Luffy, is most of the time childish, but he can be serious if the moment requires to. While Sanji has shown he has sexual desires, Luffy has shown he has less sexual desires than a snail.
Both are hopeless dreamers, with kinda impossible dreams. Sanji want to find a legendary sea that may not exist, and Luffy wants to find a legendary tresaure that’s wanted by a lot of people. Luffy will do whatever he has to do to achieve it, but Sanji has been shown to deny his desire to accomplish his dream, just for the sake of someone else.
Luffy’s an excited child that go running towards anything that sounds fun to him without any second thought. Sanji’s careful and thinks his next moves with precison, also Sanji is one of the main strategist of the crew
Luffy easily falls for lies,tricks and ilusions, while Sanji doesn’t and even sometimes uses them in his advantage.
Both are so damn protective, but Sanji’s a lot more sacrificed.
Luffy’s loud and bad at infiltrating, but Sanji’s quiet and awfully good at infiltraitng and finding ways to help the crew.
Story/Family:
Both are saved by a pirate that looses, an arm on Luffy’s part, a leg on Sanji’s part,
Their fathers are both famous criminals, but while Sanji’s father’s more from the underworld, Luffy’s father from the upperworld.
Also both have two older siblings, but while Luffy’s aren’t blood related, Sanji’s are.
Well, that’s just a list of things that have come to my mind for now. Feel free to expand it.
Sanji can’t hit a woman at all, while Luffy could care less about your gender if you’re the enemy. Zoro’s in the middle of the spectrum. I got this from TV Tropes.
I’d also like to point out how Oda’s chosen colors for them are red and blue. While you have Zoro and Nami whose colors are their hair color, Sanji could honestly have yellow or even black as a color, but those were assigned to Usopp and Brook instead.
In most literature, red and blue are symbolic opposites. Usually they designate for convenience enemies or rivals at least. While Sanji’s rival is Zoro, sanji unwilling had sort of a heelface turn where in chapter 844 they actually had what they talked about sort of sanji vs. luffy more like sanji hitting luffy in order to strive him down both sanji and luffy had 2 flashbacks first one featuring their mentor and their mentors losing a limb for them and the second featuring a relationship with their brothers for luffy it was in spirit for sanji it was biological for luffy it was positive relationship for sanji negative
in the tea party since sanji is trying to save his biological brothers and father who he hates while e how luffy tried to save his brother in spirit ace
this serves as an excellent point of contrast while sanji is saved his brothers and father who he hates (along with his sister who he loves) luffy tried to save his brother in spirit and failed where sanjis mentor lost a leg to protect him while luffys mentor shanks lost a arm saving him heck in the manga this was outright referenced when luffy told him
image and they are both connected to the sun with luffy being the son god fruit user
and sanji associated with sun in a meta way
Judge was to be named Saint-Germain, eventually this became the name of Germa Kingdom’s flagship. I think the name Saint-Germain comes from the city Saint-Germain-en-Laye (the same as Paris Saint-Germain FC). Interestingly, this city was the birthplace of Sun King Louis XIV
Sun king Louis supposedly had a twin brother who was the man in the iron mask ( which is referenced in sanjis backstory )
in the story man in the iron mask
also germa kingdom is a reference to shocker from kamen rider and kamen rider black was solar powered who lit his legs and fists on fire and had a prince of sadness and prince of anger mode
what if zeff was a former celestial dragon who left the holy land and his biological son got taken back to mariejois.
I feel it would be neat for Sanji to eventually have to fight zeff's biological son, who is exactly the type of person zeff didn't want Sanji to grow up to be.
It would be even funnier if zeff's son was a boxer ( maybe his name would be Apollo)
( this isn't a theory , so much it would be cool/funny if this happens)
