Discussion Sabo Thread

[Rainier]

He's not talking about the flashback, but about the character. And there has been a lot of comic relief in the the flashback, just check out any scene where Luffy appears

 

[Riku]

Yeah, what I meant is that this far Sabo lacks the funny eccentric habbit every Strawhat has (stupidity, total lack of homing instinct, abslute weakness to beutifull girls, greed etc.)

---

yeah i feel you, but robin doesnt have one.

Grimm jokes?

Though we learned about that one after she joined. And also We had no idea about Zoro's personal problems before he joined.

Grasping for straws here but could this guy be Sabo? http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/546/01/
If Sabo grew his hair would it look like that? And the face is concealed maybe for a reason. I for one really hope its him.
But like i said grasping here.

You know what, this is a credible guess. This cover appeared just before Sabo was mentioned, and a bit before where we are now.

http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/586/04/

You can see that Sabo seems to have fluffy hair, and would match the Revolutionary Leader's hair on that cover if he grew it out.

Also note that the guy is a Revolutionary Leader, we just learned that Sabo met THE leader of the revolution. It would make sense for Dragon teach him about the movement or for Sabo to be inspired by him.

Lastly, the hat the guy is wearing is a Bowler hat, while it isnt a top hat that Sabo wears, resembles it greatly.

All in all, there is a reasonable amount of possibility Sabo can be that Revolutionary leader.

 

[Riku]

Yeah, I also instantly thought back to Robin's story when we saw Sabo meeting Dragon. Could be plausible, but the nose just doesn't match.

 

[kkck]

^Well, a nose could change quite a bit over 10 years. I don't think sabo would give up his dream of being a pirate though.

 

[THM Nindo]

IF he's alive, what do you think that Sabo's powers will be?!
Will he have a DF?
Will he have a different way of fighting?

I doubt that he will still be fighting with lead pipes

maybe he has a weapon that has a fruit. from what we saw in the flashback, he usually carries a staff, so maybe he has a staff that ate a zoan fruit like a rhino or tiger

I did think of him too as soon as I saw Dragon. I think we all did, actually XD

And as I see, it's the same nos0:. Pointy. That break on the top could be easily hidden by the hat/googles or be just the expression of being "angry" or "nervous". It's uncertain at this point anyway.

I think it's very likely to be him, but only because I'm biased wanting him to become the next Mugiwara. He is kinda awesome.

i like him 2........... i hope he does join the strawhats. robin is 6"2', so the guy she is talking to is about 6"7'.

 

[THM Nindo]

I'm sold!
This guy MUST be Sabo!

He's so cool!
I want him to be Sabo!!

Or... if he's not Sabo, at least, I hope we'll see him again in the story!

 

[kkck]

Wouldn't it be kinda cheap if sabo is alive? I mean, sabo is just as much as a brother to luffy as ace was, I'd feel a tad cheated if ace was killed only so that another super powerful brother could appear.

I don't think Sabo will be a huber-strong character.
I think he will be Sanji/Zoro level, but not Ace-level.

And it's not cheap...
I mean... Luffy want to avenge Ace, and he could find help with Sabo and the RA.

Ace was mostly powerful because He's DF, I'm quite sure that Sabo will be more balanced IF it's alive.

 

[kkck]

Sabo should still be quite stronger than luffy though. In the flashback he is of about ace strength and assuming he is in the RA then he has been fighting for much longer than luffy. I also doubt ace was strong just because of his DF... he would not be a big deal if that was the case. Obviously he would not be the same without his DF but I do think he would have had quite some strength without it.

 

[Riku]

Hmm, do I correctly remeber Luffy referring to Ace as his only and one brother at some point? Atleast on a other board somene said something along those lines, though I have yet to confirm it.

That would mean Sabo is dead, or Luffy thinks he is dead.

 

[Arkadi]

well u guys should try thinking further ahead..
luffy indeed does think sabo's dead or gone,
and Oda probably made him say that line so we all would discuss this matter..
if u'd ask me i'd probably say Sabo's still alive..
even his name has a ring to it..
Sabo- Luffy - Ace

theyre names are pretty unique

but my question is; what kind of person would sabo be this days?

 

[hossice]

I'm pretty sure oda will be all "i've drawn him before"
http://www.mangatoshokan.com/read/One-Piece/Null/440/10

and so we might have seen him here, and only here.

at hossice......good catch.

if you look at both pictures......the guy with the feather in the hat is definitely the same person. i hope its sabo. oda has done this often with characters. he has made characters that would be relevant in future arcs background characters, like rayleigh, marco, and jozu. so maybe this is another one.

It's the same for the smoking guy. The first time he's got Luffy's bounty and he is talking to Dragon, and the second time, he is next to Robin shooting a guard. Please notice he shaved his beard.

All that means that we will see them with their names when the RA arc will come.

I thought about it as well, but the guy looks like he has a birth mark above his mouth, so I'm saying no on this one.
