Re: Is Brook Related to Aokiji?

i remember ppl grilling the guy who started the theory abt auction house belonging to don flamingo and guess wat? he was spot on abt it.
That was me, lol :p

But that was different, there was more evidence to support the theory.

This one is just about looks.

Re: Is Brook Related to Aokiji?

personally grilling people who thought that Hancock was Luffy’s mother, or who thought that Marguerite would join the Straw Hats. And guess what? They weren’t right.
I don't understand why you have to be so arrogant in most of your posts, especially as a moderator. Margarette not joining isn't for sure yet; we may still see her join. And Hancock may still be Luffy's mother, although the chances of that happening are slightly slimmer.

People are free to speculate what they want. Isn't this what the Tree of Knowledge is for? You don't have to beat them with a stick every time they do. Your job is to moderate not to put people down.

When I'm moderating, I'm moderating. When I'm posting as a member, I'm posting as a member. And I do allow people to speculate as they wish to. I don't delete a post that proposes a theory I disagree with, no matter how ineffably stupid I think that theory is. I DO, however, reserve the right to point out just how ineffably stupid it is, which is the right of any member of this forum.

And Marguerite will not join, because Luffy has left Amazon Lily, and if the Straw Hats go back there, it will have to be after circumnavigating the world, which would be AFTER the crew is completed. Any chance there ever was is now gone due to the technicality of Luffy having left without her. And Hancock... Look, there was never any evidence for her being Luffy's mother, and she's only 27 at least. Odds are that she's too young to be Luffy's mother. Not to mention the impracticality and sheer pointlessness of the idea. But that isn't the subject of the thread here, the resemblance between Aokiji and Brook is.

Re: Is Brook Related to Aokiji?

if we just for a moment suppose they could be related we should consider how:
Brook is 88 years old and Aokiji about 50? so did Brook run away from the country he served as a guard or something leaving a pregnant wife just to become pirate?

Akainu brings up a good point, the age difference.

He would have had to be a pirate for less then a year for Aokiji(assuming 50) to be his son...

I also don't think Oda wants to tell kids that they should leave their pregnant wives behind to follow their dreams...

Re: Is Brook Related to Aokiji?

I'm just going to add my 2 cents

http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/321/16/

Aokiji is singing and saying "Sorry little bro."

So Oda likes drawing tall guys with afro that enjoy singing?
nice find, but this theory is more plausible than the random things ppl bring up though

becoming pirates and breaking into government jails is a good thing?

If it's one thousand times worse then any jail I know of and your trying to save your brother who hasn't done anything to warrent the torture then yeah probably.

And remember Peace Main Pirate.

Playing Devil's Advocate here, what about Yassop? Besides, "leaving your pregnant wife/infant son at home and coming back from a journey and not even knowing or recognizing him" is a pretty common plot device. The Bible (the end of Joshua) and the Odyssey come to mind here.

Re: Is Brook Related to Aokiji?

so you agree that Brook could be Aokijis father and what's more it's an almost commonly used plot device. just to hold onto that :amuse
now then I guess you would also all agree, that it is not possible that Brook is Aokijis son or similar? but he could also just be an uncle, cousin or whatever?

btw.: Aokiji singing and the "father leaving wife with son in myth" scares me that Oda might really have that in mind <.<'

Well we don't really know what Ace has done. He seems a nice guy, but he was with friends. We don't know how he acts to strangers.

Yeah, I still don't think he's Aokiji's father. It'd make Aokiji a bit older then I think would be appropriate, and it would be a pointless relationship to establish, and there's no indication except some common tropes and Oda's drawing tall, bespectacled, afro-bearing singers similarly. It would just be plain useless, not to mention a bit forced.

now then I guess you would also all agree, that it is not possible that Brook is Aokijis son or similar? but he could also just be an uncle, cousin or whatever?
Well Brook is certainly not Aokiji's descendant, he's 88 years old. And unless somebody proposes that Aokiji seems to have the same aging traits as Dr. Kureha (oh PLEASE, nobody theorize that they're related) then it's impossible. Could Aokiji be the descendant of a relative of Brook? There's nothing against it, but again, it seems a pointless relationship to establish. Though Oda being Oda, that sort of thing could actually be used to great comic effect, so maybe he WILL do it, just for laughs. It's hard to tell with Oda whether or not he'll do something silly just for comedy.

btw.: Aokiji singing and the "father leaving wife with son in myth" scares me that Oda might really have that in mind <.<'
Nah, it's too pointless a relationship for Oda to bother establishing. Then again, if Brook ever meets Aokiji and they figure out that they are in fact related, I'm gonna feel rather silly for objecting to it this vehemently. There's no proof for it, but there's no proof against it, except for plain old common sense. But we know how this series feels about issues like that, right?


he was a perv right?
Well, yes, he was. But so are a lot of characters, that's not necessarily a trait that implies a family relationship.

Yet ussop was abandoned by his dad lol (IDK if he wasnt borned when that happened though).
I dont think oda is trying to give any particular message through his manga. I believe that this manga is meant stricly to entertain readers which gives oda sensei the liberty to use almost anything he wants in his story. It is sort of like the simpsons situation, they are not meant to be educational on any level meaning that having a fat drunk bastard with not moral as a main character and more adult unfavorable situations is perfectly ok.

Is Gol D. Roger related to Luffy?

They look the same, some pplz that met Luffy comments him being like Roger and they both have the "Will of D" So you think that they are somehow related?

Re: Is Gold D. Roger related to Luffy?

my guess is that they have a hidden conection we dont know about yet.i dont think they are blood related its more of a mystical connection.
it will probably have somthing to do with the missing century and some kind of a hidden profeccy in one of the polygraph but its really is a wild guess.
