Thanks for replaying this topic, guys. I will add for more XD.
Anybody can explain this cover inside vol.10?
I don’t lnow why Sanji is put under Nami. Even he has got number 5 above Usopp who get number 4. So, why the number is not arranged in sequence?
These are cover story about CobyMeppo, they were told in chapter 83-119 with interspersed by color spread and cover.related with the chapter story. We see:
1. ch 86 with title Fighter and Karate Fishman. The picture is Nami with sad face. The chapter told about Sanji’s battle against Kuroobi.
2. Ch 94 with title "Second Person" . The picture is Nami with happy face. The chapter told about Nami join back to the Crews.
3. Ch 104 with title "Whale." The picture is Luffy & Laboon. The chapter told about Laboon.
4. Ch 107, 111, and 117 are Color Spread.
So, why the chapter that told Sanji’s battle is drawn with Nami for the cover? Inside ch 86, there is one page that show Kuroobi insult Sanji that he can’t protect Nami and made Sanji is so angry for the statement..It’s yes that Luffy as captain lead himself and the other crews to help Nami and he hit the boss (Arlong), but Sanji is the most person and the first line to protect her.
Hiroaki Hirata, Sanji’s seiyuu, had confirmed that 95% the reason Sanji joined Strawhat Pirate is because of Nami. Look at this page:
Zeff asked Luffy, does he wanna take Sanji to be his crew and Luffy answered NO! Luffy never force person to be his crew if the person he invite always refuse. Sanji still felt he can’t leave Zeff.
But, when Yosaku came and reported that Nami went to dangerous place (look that Lufffy didn’t exactly understand what Yosaku told), the next page is Sanji exclaimed he wanna join! Although the reason is he has crazy dream to find All Blue, the direct stimulus is for saving Nami no matter what.
I'm not surprised that Luffy as THE MAIN PROTAGONIST / the strongest crew always seems to save his main heroine, the weakest one. But, Oda also didn't forget Sanji’s nature for protecting Nami since he built it at the first Sanji join for that reason (although Sanji is the weakest between the Monster Trio). He have been keeping it:
1) Sanji did it at Drum Kingdom. Although Luffy was the one who carry Nami, Sanji let him for purpose to protect her easily. Even include why he throw Luffy in avalance is for Nami (chapter 137). And, do you know the cover was?
It’s look like Sanji will go dating with Nami XD. Is it the same with this color spread for ch 618?
And, how about this color spread ch 152? Sanji and Nami are missing.
Well, inside the story of that chapter, they're really 'missing' when Luffy and Chopper fight against Wapol^^
2) In Skypea, Luffy knew Nami is taken by Enel to Maxim because Robin told him. But, Sanji knew the same thing just because of his strong feeling. And do you know the chapter 283’s title? It’s titled with “
True Love Frontline Rescue.”
C'mon, what's the meaning of True Love? Just look at my siggy XD. Sanji express love to all women but it's not his true feeling. I know that he will sacrifice himself for all his nakama no matter what (even for Luffy in Thriller Bark but Zoro switch it) but until now, the only scene and the only person Oda show his self-sacrifice is for Nami (although there is Luffy in Drum Kingdom and Usopp in Skypea, Sanji just entrust them),
3) In Thriller Bark, look at these three boys’ reaction when they woke up after Moria steal their shadow.
Sanji must be the most concern between the three. Yes, Johnny. Where are the two’s testoterone XD. Luffy and Zoro just care for the other things. They must save three things hahaha: food (Luffy’s concern), shadow (Zoro’s concern of losing guard), and Nami (Sanji’s concern).
