just wondering, do you think that the sergeant-major tashigi is the girl that zoro made the promise to?
and if so, why is there such a huge gap between them now - that promise is now rendered obsolete...
LOL its a bit late but i was watching the anime recently... some theories please?

[mod=Luckas]Changed the thread's title to make clearer the subject discussed.[/mod]

Zoro made that promise to Kuina, right? And she died... Tashigi just reminded him of her... >.>

Tashigi herself said she wasn't Zoro's friend. XD She just resembled her.

Hmmm....Maybe she didnt die. Kuina was so strong when little, kind of imposible to die from faliing down from the stairs. Perhaps she lost her memories then.

YEAH but think about it... same color hair, shes a swordswoman, and she has a legendary sword... ok then but do you think she might be a significant character in one piece?

I don't think that Tashigi is Kuina. She may have a relation to her, but we can't say anything about that yet.

Tashigi is probably Kuina´s sister or something.

No I believe that she is Kuina, I mean Kuina did fall from the stairs which meant she was kind of clumsy
and Tashigi is clumsy. Or it could be a running gag by Oda.

Re: TASHIGI! its a bit late but i was watching the anime...

I dont think that tashigi and kuina are the same, any kuina's dad was zoro's sensei, so if she was alive zoro would have most likely known, she just resembles her,
which is quite fun, seeing zoro soften up for the first time ever and run away instead of fight her, kind of refreshing to remeber that zoro is still human, after seeing
him take down monster and smash through the waves, slash things up.

odaverse is never logical, so i think he wanted to make a joke, like, she is the only one zoro can't fight,

Re: TASHIGI! its a bit late but i was watching the anime...

I was thinking of starting a new thread but I found this old one so I'll post here instead.

Does anyone have a theory of why Tashigi looks exactly like Kuina and that they are both swordswomen? It's also very weird for a powerful swordsfighter like Kuina to slip on the stairs and die. Remember that in the OP universe people take much more damage than falling (even headfirst) on a flight of stairs but they rarely die or even take serious damage.
I think Kuina didn't actually die and as said by others before had an amnesia. There is a huge possibility that Kuina = Tashigi.

I read on Wikipedia that Tahigi and Kuina are the same age. Oda also answered that they're the same age in an SBS.

Can you provide a link to the SBS? I don't trust wiki that much.

What about birthdays, do they have the same birthdays?
