Discussion Garp Discussion Thread

[OP_overlord]

they both sleep all the time (garp feel asleep when he was being attacked by morgan )

 

[Absolutio]

yea, and luffy fell asleep when he got preached by garp..Also with Ace while he eats.. They're are a sleeping out of the blue family.. :P

 

[sushi]

hey aokiji not the family....maybe cousins?

 

[jeffhmwong]

I think garp can nver beat aokoji.....frankly speakign.....i seriously dont think anyone capable of doing so....

except ace perhaps..

 

[deathshadow25]

I have a question isn't Garps rank under Aokoji's

 

[hrseber]

Yes, Garp is a Vice Admiral and Aokiji is a Supreme Admiral

 

[deathshadow25]

You'd think because Garp took down the king of pirates he'd have a higher rank

 

[hrseber]

I still don't believe that he did do that. I still think that Garp was under Roger's crew and left to join the marines to better protect the Grandline from the pirate era.... And you are right that he would be a higher rank if he had actually taken down Roger but I think that Sengoku took down Roger and he is the true super power seeing as the three supreme admirals are controlled by him. And think about how Sengoku is treated by the schibukai, how openly he talks to them without fear and you know Oda keeps him holding onto that goat for no reason other than to make us think this guy is weak.

No one knows who or how Gol D. Roger was caught.. I dont understand where people get the idea that garp was the one that got him..

Anyways.. Getting promoted doesnt always have to do with being strong and defeating strong enemies. The higher rank you are, the more responsibility you have, and the more men you command. You also need to prove yourself as a intelectual person and smart strategist.. (Which Garp might not be good enough for..)

 

[OP_overlord]

i think garp could have had the job he had had more experience and he cornored roger many times so i think he was offerd it but refused it cause he was lazy and he liked where he was and everone looks up to him any way aokiji included (he trusts garp to hadle the luffy situation as he please's) i think that sengoku has so serious powers that we have not seen yet but i wnna so bad he looks like the man (maybe the starter of the roukoski techs.) none messes with sengoku
im not to sure if akoiji title is supreme admiral i think it is just admiral

 

[mugen]

ummm has anybody noticed that the mask Garp was wearing before and the masks the revolutionaries wear, look alike?
Weird huh?

 

[OP_overlord]

i didnt notcie that but now that you mention it yeah could grap be a spy for teh Rev and that is why he is not admiral by now i he should be the WG knows that he is they just cant prove it. but the hats that the revs wear look like puppys while the one that garp wears is a dog so he might be the one incharge and dragon is handleling things while garp is spy onthe WG or dragon is just trying to frame garp with the resemblance of the hets or he is mackeing fun of him

nah i doubt Garp is a spy..
but could be that Dragon just decided to pay homage to his father in that way....

 

[xr3b0rn5inx]

Man this guy has one freakishly strong arm,for a moment i tot the Strawhats ship would be a waste of money when Grap started throwing cannonballs at them

 

[venicia777]

yes!!! but if memory serves me right-- earlier in the series wasnt it revealed that Garp coulda being admiral but just because of his character or something?

He is kinda similar to Smoker. They do their own things. People like that at times choose not to get that far in rank (i remember Jiraiya from naruto) or that the authorities wouldnt give him that rank- but give him one good enough to be close to the top.

 

[OP_overlord]

yeah he didnt want it he was cool being a vice admiral and like not being tied down at WG HQ

 

[Absolutio]

Aokiji also do things his own way - Letting Robin live, same with luffy, etc.
Yet, he is an Admiral.

 

[lordHokage]

I wonder if Admiral Aokiji is related to Vice-Admiral Garp. They both have a lot in common, when it comes to Straw Hat Crew, their actions are mysterious and they love to sleep alot.

Why isn't Garp an admiral?

Ok, so here we are presented with a man who has fought to the death with roger on multiple occassions, as well as cornered him and his ship. http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/551/05/

A man who was able to THROW a cannonball faster than a cannon could shoot it, and still having an explosive effect, and yet he says he has lost power.
http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/438/11/

A man who was able to throw this ridiculously large ironball
http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/439/10/

Furthermore, a man who is on good terms with Sengoku and is a veteran of the sea.

So, why isn't Garp, whom holds all of these great virtues an admiral?

Re: Why isn't Garp an admiral?

for the same reason smoker was a simple captain and now is a commodore: because they don't belives in absolute justice

also, he is the father of dragon. sangoku said that if garp isn't the "hero of the marine", he would pay for the crimes of his family
