How in the world does Rayleigh have more parallels with Killer than he does with Zoro lol
- All the appearance stuff (less important, but still splitting image)
- En-Ou/Mei-Ou
- PK's #2/RHM
- All three forms of haki
- Sword user, Killer uses scythes
Just to name a few.
More than parallels I'm talking similarities in personality and approach.
Killer is cooler than Zoro, more calculated and smart, just like Rayleigh. Zoro on the other hand is more of a goofball.
Killer objective is backing Kidd up in his quest whatever happens, just like Rayleigh with Roger. Same goes for Zoro but he also wants to be WSS, something that detaches him from Rayleigh's figure.
Killer & Rayleigh literally live/
lived for their captain.
No doubt both Zoro and Killer share similarities with Rayleigh, but I personally think Killer is closer to him
as a character, as a person.
To make you an example: Rayleigh is the kind of guy that decides to live a chill life once retired (ship coater), and I can see Killer be more of that kind of guy (owner of a pasta shop/weapon builder) rather than Zoro (who would most likely keep training even when it's not necessary anymore).
