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. :noworry

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

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

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.

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

that's kind of off topic, anyways since some scars have been revealed I can pressume the others will be too :amuse[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
