Idc if you want to argue Oden>Gaban really. There's no point in obsessing over random statements, I just don't think you can really argue Oden wasn't a member of the crew, he obviously was

 

[Shiroyru]

Odens not an archaeologist. Dude just knows a language. Those two things are not the same.

Odens a Roger Pirate. That’s a manga fact. Arguing oimo may not be aware may be weird but at least you can. Saying “he’s not a Roger Pirate” is just blatant lies

His role can just be “Translator”

And Sunbell could’ve been fighter but oda didn’t include every Roger Pirate here. Again I just need one panel where oden or any Roger Pirate says “Odens not counted among the crew.” Just one and I’ll drop it

 

[MonsterKaido]

Father I want to defeat Kaidou in a question about Kizaru.
@MonsterKaido @Levi

When someone brought akainu in terms of strength , oda brought Kaido also. Coincidence? I think not

 

[Shiroyru]

You can say Oden was a Roger Pirate to some extent, but it’s clear Oda doesn’t consider him to be “as much of” a Roger Pirate as the rest of the crew. Oden was a Daimyo of Wano first, WBP second, Roger Pirate third

Bro, he was just a legitimate member

Bruh, why would Oda choose to include Donquino instead of Oden, an infinitely more relevant character?

 

[Sir Yasheen]

Why would Oda introduce new characters via SBS that he didn’t make time to in manga? Dude that’s 90% of odas minor characters.

Again one panel of any Roger Pirate or oden himself saying he doesn’t count as a member. Or where they say he’s an honorary member like vivi? Just one otherwise you’re just coping

You can in fact be part of multiple crews in your life

Ok so why not exclude Crocus then. We already know his role anyways, and he’s not as important as Oden. Why not give us Sunbell’s or someone else’s role instead of Crocus’s?

[Shiroyru]

“You may be a member of this crew, but we do not grant you the rank of Roger Pirate”

Because crocus was called the ship doctor in canon?

Sunbell had no designated role among the crew like Oden. Again you’re trying to throw a bunch of mental gymnastics out there, just give me one panel where a Roger Pirate or oden says he’s not a legitimate member. Seriously just one.

Ironic when oden was introduced to the crew as;
1. Old Daimyo
2. Member of Roger’s legendary crew
3. Whitebeard Pirate

It was literally said Roger was just “borrowing” Oden.

 

[Sir Yasheen]

It was literally said Roger was just “borrowing” Oden.

Yeah cause Roger was aware he only had a year left.

Again show where they say Oden is not a full fledged member. Just one panel will do it.

 

[soupongo]

Did Oden return to the WBP though.....

 

[Shiroyru]

Did Oden return to the WBP though.....

He didn’t return because of the trouble in his homeland
