Character Discussion Zoro's lineage is revealed by Oda
- Thread starter RoronoaZorro
- Start date
It makes sense why this wasn't revealed in the story - everyone is dead and none of them had anything to do with the plot of Wano or will have any plot relevance with future events except maybe Ryuma so it'd be out of place.
Like sure he could have used like 2 pages to show the group leaving Wano and the just timeskip into the next generations being born and getting married until Zoro and Kuina but that would have felt just as cheap as this so makes no difference.
Sure he could have given him a whole different backstory with huge relevence to Wano but I'm not sure Zoro fans wanted that either

Zoro's family tree being randoms and nothing of note is a W. 1/4th Shimotsuki connection was also nothing new or special, only notable person in the lineage was Ryuma and that was centuries ago. Heck we also have Ushimaru look exactly like Ryuma and be a fodder. Strengthens the narrative that Zoro's a common man who simply becomes that strong due to ambition.
Couldve been revealed in Wano but ultimately it was so irrelevant (as it should be) that it was done in an SBS.

It couldn't be revealed in Wano because Oda doesn't plan his arcs and he isn't smart enough to do it.
If only Zoro could remember the name of his grandparents and someone told him that Furiko was the sister of Ringo's Daimyo.

Though the problem is Zoro grew up as an orphan at the dojo iirc.
Either way, main take away is that his parents/grandparents are actual fodders and not Top Tiers or anything special. Strengthens the "Zoro is self made" argument.
To loda it was irrelevant we readers would have appreciated if this was included in the manga after all the teasing Ryuma parallels
. Let's see if we get something more in future about his parents the reason why Zoro wanted to become the wss even before the promise to kuina

Though his family tree is irrelevant tbf. We already got his backstory in the arc he joined. I like to think he was orphaned at a young age and simply wanted to be the strongest swordsman because he was in a village of swordsmen.
I dont want Zoro to have a complex 100 chapter backstory or something. He's a simple straightforward character and i like that about him.

Two ones means that he was 2x top 1
(pinzoro) (gambling, idiomatic) Snake eyes: two ones, after rolling two dice.
