Yes of course, I have said that I have doubts and maybe i am wrong... But, I also think that there is a lot of things in common
If you look hard enough you can find things in common with the most remote of people.
A person could have something in common with another person isn't that much of an issue... The probability is to great.

Their Characters are insanely different

Well, yes and No in my opinion. I am aware that there is a lot of differences... But I don´t Know, something with their storys sound for me the same jajaja. But well, is only an opinion.
 
This is not entirely true. Carrot only gets along with the SHs who were in WCI, not Zoro, Robin, Usopp or Franky. Characters like Law get along with everyone, even if they are not SH candidates. Carrot reminds me a lot of Camie tbh.
Dont compare Carrot to Camie, she was crucial to the Sabody and the other arcs that followed it. SHs were separated because they saved her. I don't think Carrot has any such plot significance

Carrot role in these two bigs arcs is similar to that of Chimney and Gonbe during water 7 and Enies Lobby.
 
The original argument was, "Jinbe fought alongside all of them. Carrot is fighting alone." Jinbe did not literally fight right next to every Straw Hat on Fishman Island. He still hasn't fought side by side with Usopp or Franky or Zoro. But both he and Carrot have worked with the crew before joining, fought on the same side, and helped each other out in a few independent fights. It's also not too late for Carrot to fight with Luffy or another Straw Hat on Onigashima, but again, I'm waiting to see what happens. .
Yeah, but Jimbei has work alongside Luffy more than just 1 arc though. He has done more significant things throughout his time being with Luffy as series as goes on. In other words, his character has done more important things for Luffy in his overall progress he made thus far in the series. Without him being there Luffy might have still been stuck in impel down or most likely die. Throughout entire series we have had with him he usually came as the voice reason and logic. As well a person who would help guide luffy towards his main objective at hand in those give those moments in time. In fishman island he would have an arc that would certain around him as character. In terms of his backstory and importance as character would be on full display in whole cake island. On top that Luffy has trusted Jimbei judgement and opinion on how to go about certain things multiply times throughout series. For example, focusing on rescuing ace, getting an escape ship, Luffy thinking about things he still has left, agreeing with jinbei to be hero in fishman island, going alongside with the idea to ally with the firetank pirates in order rescue vinesmokes, believing he will show up wano and recently agreeing with his opinion on saving strength against Kaido. He was also the most protective of luffy wellbeing and keeping him alive and his crew alive as well in whole cake island.

While in my opinion carrot still feels like support character just going along for ride to aiding and assisting the straw hats the best she can. If you had other minks came along with them at that given moment in time the situation would not have change. In some situation carrot was she was just there agreeing what they wanted to do. Her response is like alright, okay, gotcha, and I do my best. Her flashback does not tell anything more about herself. The only thing it tells us how she got her gauntlets. The biggest highlight of character was when she became suslong. What type powers it does. Possibly what role she might have her on crew. Once we land in Wano she did not do much anything with rest straw hats or luffy for that matter. When straw hats and their other alliance were heading onishima Ussop quite literally took her role of being lookout. She was originally supposed rescue momo alongside with Nami but she ends being easily capture by one of big mom’s homies. Later She had her own personal priority alongside with Wanda deal with perospero. Finally, throughout chapters we have been getting lately her fight was completely skip over rather getting attention it deserves.

I actually found the Franky scene had a lot of similarities to the WCI scene. Luffy asks Franky twice; first in chapter 416, then at the end of 418. The second time it's a lot more forceful, shouting Franky's name in a very direct manner. Oda took time to hammer in the importance of the moment, whereas with Yamato and in Dressrosa the way the orders were presented were a lot more perfunctory.
And again, it's not so much what he's asking them to do as it is why and how he's asking. On WCI, he's telling them that he'll be okay despite the danger ahead of him, and basically mirrored Pedro's command for them to keep moving onward. In Dressrosa, he's got half his crew staying with him and tells the other half to go ahead; the stakes are high, just like on Onigashima, but both moments had people already on it, and were not nearly as down to the wire as WCI when Katakuri was right there, or EL when Robin was about to pass through the gates. .

The comparison I was making between dressrosa and whole cake island situation was the fact in both situation they were in the direst. In both situation there were literally going up against big mom’s crew obviously and Luffy gave them direct order deal with situation go ahead without him. While he deals business somewhere else. You bring up two chapters that Franky being order twice by Luffy to look after robin. Your kind forgetting Yamato also had two-chapters in that similar situation. Luffy was the person giving her direct order to look after someone and as telling momo and Shinbou that this person is on our side. Let us also not forget both Franky and Yamato both put their bodies on the line in order protect those two characters at those moments in time. Her flashback had two chapters that had much greater detail surrounded her as character in comparison Carrot. With Yamato's flashback you got know how Ace and Yamato became friends, her predicament she was in, what she wants to do with her life, how she found about luffy, knowing Luffy hidden goal, and insert herself to plot with ace's virve card before luffy even met her. She has always wanted meet him for about 3 years. Indirectly asking him if she join his crew and wants to fight alongside with him. Luffy has already freed from her predicament. So she kinds own Luffy gratitude for doing such thing and defeat Kaido raises possibly of her joining Yamato still might have past that is worth showing since she has mention to luffy and momo about it before. It's likely we going get to know more about it. In terms presentation wise yamato still has a lot offer in terms her power and still has hidden ability that we have not seen from her just yet. So far since act 3 of wano this has certain around her as character alongside with momo. Presentation wise she look better than carrot does in her base form in terms fighting capability and getting to know little bit about herself on personal level while carrot by comparison still feels like she is kind lacks story to tell the audience.
 
She couldn't have use 2 sword style if she's going to join/supposed to join. An unique weapon & fighting style is a requirement. Having 2 sword style as main combat method will only lower her specialness & worth.
If we talking of club users, Alvida and the impel down guards comes to mind. I guess its more unusual than 2 sword style. I'm bringing it up because there's a theory about sword trio with Brook 1 sword, Zoro 3 swords and someone with 2 swords. Seeing the significance of Oden in the story and that he was a 2 sword style user. It's an interesting aspect

Unless she gets a second club.:goyea:

But seriously in terms of character arcs in Wano, Yamato came in hot and furious and is maintaining that momentum. Still need her reactions with Kaido and a detailed look at her past.
 
I think so too.

Aside from the comparison Yamato/Nami (facial features) which is not even that strictly relatable, Yamato is a very unique character in general to me. I personally renamed her the Xena of One Piece.
Yamato is also a good "representative" of "women empowerment" community in the story... Since Oda has been criticized by some due to his portrayal of women characters...

The problem is that the 2-sword style is too much like Zoro's. In contrast, Brook and Zoro, although they are both swordsmen, have completely different fighting styles.

The funny thing about Yamato is that she admires Oden but fights like Kaido. I think it's more original like that.
 
I cant really understand how some people prefer carrot over yamato to join. Carrot is an animal themed pirate with a childish, carefree personality and a beast tranformation. She is basically a weaker chopper.
Yamato is a cool op horned woman of great might and potentially an awesome zoan devil fruit user.
Yamato>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Carrot
Agreeing with everything but calling Carrot a pirate. She is dumb brat nothing more and definitely no pirate

Exactly.





Just compare the last two chapters. Chopper is great and cool. Carrot is a rabid teenager. Can anyone really imagine Carrot fighting one of the Ten Titanic Captains?

Yeah..
Anyway, her main style would be DF related, so kanabo or sword, it's just a secondary feature. I personally think Oda will stick with the kanabo (no pun intended) because it helps differentiate her in spread & battles. Alternating between kanabo & DF would also makes her different from Chopper style (a martial artist "animal").
