Why do they have a scar on the left side?

[mugen]

Well I know kind of thought that perhaps the scar on the left side of some characters might be of importance or just a joke Oda likes to do.

So far only Luffy, Shanks, Garp, and Dragon have one. Tell me what do you think?
And Ben Beckman from Shanks crew.

 

[Dark Zeza]

No, I think they are just coincidence. Also on Dragon's face it seem to be tattoo more than scar.

 

[CheckMate]

Kakashi Hatake!!

 

[craziii]

it is just character design? Oda sensei doesn't mean anything by it? I wish u had a 4th option for nothing special.

 

[jeffhmwong]

Yea....Sumore luffy got his scare by jabbing himself on the face due to stupidity (in episode 1) . Thats just pure dumbness no coincidence at all!!

 

[bebekhappy]

Perhaps influence from Rurouni Kenshin? well he used to be an assistant for Watsuki before doin' OP right?

*yeah it's just my thought

 

[stoopider]

Because a scar is cool

 

[neild]

i think it is just a pure coincidence.but based on oda's genious way of thinking, i think he will turn around the story to what most people dont think.so i think he was up to something

 

[tqm_z]

my prediction:
their scars might have a meaning in the stories because on the early chapter Luffy badly want a scar and cut his face himself. (read manga, this part wasn't in anime)

there something that drives Luffy to put this scar. It's like a symbol of power or something.

 

[mugen]

actually Luffy stabbed himself to show Shanks he was tough so that Shanks would take him as his crew.

LOL, you don't know? I think you didn't read manga version chapter 001

Luffy scratch himself before he ate Gomu Gomu DF.

this part was't broadcasted in anime.

[jeffhmwong]

As i said. He jab himself base on pure stupidity..!!!
Totally no coincidence involve there..!!

 

[Mugiwara_no_Jack]

i thinks it's just a coinsedence....

besides a scar looks cool, mysterious and dangerous

 

[jeffhmwong]

I think zoros scar on the chest by Mihawk looks real cool..@@

that's kind of off topic, anyways since some scars have been revealed I can pressume the others will be too [br]Posted on: November 08, 2006, 09:17:11 PM_________________________________________________ I just noticed something could it be that Dragon is a Homage to Vegeta from Dragonball
I mean Oda's favorite manga is Dragonball

 

[neild]

vegeta doesnt have a tatoo on his face.but maybe the hair is look alike.
btw does zoro's scar important?

 

[sushi]

hey...maybe oda-sensei is trying to tell something bout the scar>>>kinda like all the people who has it is powerful like luffy n shanks...dragon on the hand was tattoo but still the same cause it's still a marking...garp....it looks like anybody who is related to luffy has it....

 

[neild]

but zoro didnt plan to get the scar, luffy did.shanks didnt
