Powers & Abilities Zoro's been getting too many Whitebeard parallels this arc : Kinda odd
- Thread starter ShishioIsBack
- Start date
Bandanas are a traditional Pirate motif.
There are three types of characters. Durability freaks, speed freaks, and Endurance freaks. Rarely you find some that are a combination of the three. The options are limited here.
Excessive drinking is another Pirate motif. Plenty of characters do this.
Zoro seeks strength for the sole purpose of gaining a WS title. Whitebeard gained a WS title because he sought to have and protect a family and he needed strength to do it. The title Zoro wants isn't even the one Whitebeard held.
Shanks/Mihawk and Roger/Whitebeard were pirate rivals. Luffy/Zoro are Captain and Subordinate, like Roger/Rayleigh Whitebeard/Oden. Rayleigh and Oden shared a distinct bond with thier Captains, like Luffy and Zoro do.
All the Straw Hats have made that face.
Emphasis on scars on the back are unique to Zoro and Whitebeard, but never running from a fight, which is the implications behind it, are not.
One of Zoros biggest character traits is sleeping. He stayed back to protect the Sunny, and Oda had him doing one thing he loves to do when he has free time.
Hell, one can even argue the scene was a minor callback to Mihawks introduction where he annihilated the Krieg Pirates for disturbing his nap. Which fits much better.
Oda likes to use specific Storytelling elements for his different characters. Whitebeard and Zoro are meant to be badasses, so there being minor similarities in the way they are treated makes sense.
But when I think of parallels meant to be shared between two characters I'm thinking Rayleigh immediately flashing back to Roger during Sabaody when Luffy blew up on Usopp, or an image of Ryuma appearing who looks exactly like Zoro on Wano.
You know things like Ryuma was the Sword God, and Zoro wanting his name to reach the heavens as the World's Strongest Swordsmen.
When I see things like "they both wear bandanas." That's no different to me than "X character is related to Y character because they both have blonde hair."

Lmao Stop your Coping. We never even seen that Mihawk sleeping shit. They just guessed thats the reason. Mihawk said he did it because he was bored not because they disturbed his Nap. Stop making shit up. So that Parallel is with WB
Mihawk and Shanks are Rivals that Luffy/Zoro still needs to surpass them. Luffy giving his hat back and Zoro defeating Mihawk. Zoro has Parallel and Similarities with alot of Top CoC users/top tiers. WB,Ryuma,Mihawk, Rayleigh, Kaido. Even with Kaido Oda said Zoro would get the same fruit has Kaido most likely because they both Strength base. We know how Oda thinks about how a DF helps define a character like Luffy joyboy fruit.
Zoro also Similar and have so many Parallel to the best future guy Luffy. They basically have the same mentality about alot of things. They have the same concept of heros, Both was going to body a Celestial not giving a damn about the consequences, When they waked up in Onigashima both asked for favorite thing to eat/Drink, both said determination for their dream and die trying. Etc.... alot more but i would have to go find them

Who cares if we never "saw" it.... It was still something that was stated that could have been a possibility. It didn't have to actually happen, Lmao.....
Someone makes a comment Mihawk might have got annoyed and did "X" because he was probably disturbed from his nap...
Zoro goes on and does "X" because he was disturbed from his nap...
That's what a callback is.

Bro are you slow?
Mihawk literally tells you the reason. He never said noting about Disturbing his nap. Stop making shit up. The only person we seen do that is WB.
That someone is creditless. Tf he was wrong Mihawk said he did it because he was bored Go reread clown
No the callback os to WB who actually did it.

It doesn't fucking matter what the actual reasoning was. The point of Oda throwing it in there, is that, that is the type of character Mihawk is. One who would wipe out an entire Pirate Fleet over something so trivial as disturbing his nap. And then we find out the actual reason was just as trivial.
And when Zoro wakes up, his words are, and I QUOTE.... "Who dares disturb my nap."
Literally a callback to a fodder thinking Mihawk would get pissed over something so trivial as his nap being disturbed.

How can Zoro be Shikis parallel
They have only one similarity
Zoro and Whitebeard objectively are more of a parallel than Luffy and Roger
Like that's not even debatable
Only thing Luffy and Roger share is that they wear a straw hat and guess what I can order one at Amazon too..doesn't make me a parallel
Am I doing this right jealous Luffy stan?
At least this is a reasonable post and not verbal diaharrea from Luffy fans like @Celestial D. Dragon and @Albino 👑
You have to been only fed shit and toilet water your entire life to deny zoro and Whitebeard being similar. That's like literal definition of being delusional
