Character Discussion Luffy & Zoro Parallels All Throughout One Piece
- Thread starter Blother Fertitta
- Start date
This is my most Ambitious Post. But my main point is to the naysayers that deny Luffy and Zoro do not have significant parallels within the story and that Roronoa Zoro is simply just an Underling of Luffy.

Luffy: birthday is in the fifth day of the fifth month
Zoro: birthday is in the the eleventh day of the eleventh month

Both Luffy and Zoro's disguise gimmick in Wano is "Ronin".
While the others have their own unique gimmick, Luffy and Zoro have the same disguise
Zoro birthday is 11/11

Luffy's and Zoro's are the only ones who vocalize their ambitions again and again. (Their parallels in Dressrosa)
Luffy and Zoro both have complementary colours from the colour wheel,
and they both have polar opposite zodaic signs(Tauras and Scorpio)
Its funny, Luffy and Zoro have the birthdays as further apart as they could be, approximate 6 months difference but the birthday pattern is same 5/5 and 11/11. (Did Oda actually thought this through, or was it coincidental.)
I loved this reddit comment explaining the differences b/w them
Now if Zoro turns out to be shimotsuki (frost moon) and Luffy somehow turns out to be related to sun god nika etc, then their sun moon parallel will be complete.

I called the last paragraph as well. But thanks so much. I will update this and tag you for credit when I find the time.
I especially love the sun god nika stuff and frost moon. What’s interesting about THIS is Benn Beckman is the MOON to Shanks SUN. And we all know Luffy takes massive inspiration from Shanks.
I think this is a pretty good one too.
One more parallel is that when they were heading to Enies Lobby, Luffy went ahead, Zoro took the lead and sat where Luffy was sitting at the front of the puffing tom.
