One Piece (ワンピース) II





One Piece (ワンピース)

Sanji (サンジ)


Sanji is the chain-smoking chef of the Straw Hat Pirate Crew. He has superb fighting skills that only make use of his legs, in an effort to minimize damage to his hands, which would impair his cooking skills. Sanji uses an array of powerful and varied kicking moves when he fights. His cooking skills are world class, and he was mentored in both cooking and fighting by Chef "Red Leg" Zeff of the Baratie. He was born in the North Blue, but grew up in the East Blue. Sanji is usually trash-talking, serious and impatient, especially around men. This is contrasted by his "love-cook" side, as he is very amorous around women and comically swooning and making many passionate declarations of love towards them while cartoony hearts float in the air and appear in his eye. This is mostly displayed when being near or talking to Nami or Robin. This behavior has earned him the nickname "ero-cook", or perverted cook. Around women, he is incredibly chivalrous and gentlemanly, volunteering to help them in various tasks and situations, whether they need help or not.

He has sworn to never let insult or injury happen to a woman while he can still stand, even if that woman is trying to kill him. This is a diadvantage in his fighting as he will try to advoid attacking female opponents, and would rather die than hurt them. All this is apparently the result of a "strict upbringing". To contradict his gentlemanly behavior, Sanji also enjoys seeing women wear skimpy clothing and can be a voyeur. Sanji seems to have a talent for strategy and can often be found working in the background separate from the rest of the crew to foil enemy plans. Sanji is the crew's chef and and as such he looks out for the health of his crewmates. His goal in life is to find the All Blue, a legendary ocean which contains all the fish in the world, and as such would be paradise for any devoted cook. Sanji holds great respect for the tools, ingredients, and art of cooking, to the point where he never refuses food to any starving people, no matter how poor or evil they may be. He also dislikes leftovers immensely and will show anger towards anyone who leaves them. Sanji is very proud of the meals he makes and considers them works of art; if anyone insults them, he will promptly beat up the offender.



Tony Tony Chopper (トニートニー・チョッパー)

Tonī Tonī Choppā


He is the Straw Hat crew's general physician despite being a reindeer. As a reindeer, he ate the "Hito Hito no Mi" (ヒトヒトの実, Human Human Fruit), which allows him to transform into human form and has the ability to speak and walk like a human. Character wise Chopper is very naïve and childlike, resulting in a tendency to believe anything being said to him, even the outrageously fictitious, exaggerated lies of Usopp. But he is also an upright friend and companion who will try anything to overcome a task given by his team. Despite his strength, Chopper is rather hapless, and copes with stressful situations nearly as badly as Usopp. When Chopper recognises someone who needs medical attention he often will start to run around screaming for a doctor, before realising that he is one. Another one of Chopper's habits is his reverse cartoon peek where he's standing behind a wall or doorway and peeks at people, trying not to be seen by them. Unfortunately he's not hiding his body behind the wall, as a result his body is visible and only one half of his face is hidden. A running gag is that various though random characters in One Piece think Chopper is a Tanuki (狸, タヌキ, Tanuki: the Japanese word for raccoon dog) whilst in his Brain Point form. His Heavy Point form likewise is mistaken for a gorilla.

One Piece (ワンピース) I

This is an anime and manga series is created by mangaka Oda Ei'ichirō (尾田 栄一郎, ). One Piece focuses on a ragtag crew of pirates called Straw Hat Pirates (麦わら海賊団:, Mugiwara Kaizoku-dan) formed and led by Captain Monkey D. Luffy (モンキー・D・ルフィ:, Monkī Dī Rufi). Luffy's greatest ambition is to obtain the world's ultimate treasure, One Piece, and become Pirate King (海賊王: Kaizoku-Ō). This set of 6, unfortunately does not consist of all members. In this set, there's are Luffy, Zorro, Sanji, Nami, Robin and Chopper. The missing member of the crew is Usopp and the newly recruited, Franky. The set is crafted according to the One Piece game version instead of the manga version. It is much obvious to spot the difference by looking Sanji's attire.
One Piece (ワンピース)

Monkey D. Luffy (モンキー・D・ルフィ: Monkī Dī Rufi)


The captain of the Mugiwara Kaizoku-dan (麦わら海賊団,), Luffy comes from Fuschia Town. He is the son of Monkey D. Dragon (world's most wanted criminal), brother to Portgas D. Ace (ポートガス・D・エース:, Pōtogasu D. Ēsu), and the grandson of vice-admiral Monkey D. Garp (モンキー・D・ガープ中将: Monkī D. Gāpu Chūjō).

Luffy trademark Straw Hat (from which he gets his nickname 'Straw Hat Luffy') was entrusted to him by the legendary pirate captain Red-Haired Shanks (赤髪のシャンクス, Akagami no Shankusu). Aside from his hat, Luffy's customary outfit is a red vest, blue trousers, and sandals. Luffy has a scar on his left cheek, beneath his eye, which he gave himself as a child to prove that he was mature and unafraid of pain (also to possibly look more like Shanks who is his idol. As a child, Luffy accidentally ate a Devil Fruit (悪魔の実: Akuma no Mi) when it was left in an open case brought in by Shanks and his crew. The fruit, called the Gomu Gomu no Mi (ゴムゴムの実, Gum Gum Fruit, Rubber Rubber Fruit), turned Luffy into a rubber man capable of stretching, inflating, and bouncing back impact based attacks. But Luffy can still be hurt by physical attacks if they are powered with an emotion, as demonstrated by his grandfather and Nami. As a Devil Fruit user, Luffy cannot swim. Luffy hates missing his meal while asleep (especially after a battle) thus he has developed an ability to eat while sleeping, as well as being able to figure out in less than a second how many meals he has missed if unconscious for a period of time (counting five meals each day). These traits also seem to be common with Luffy's family, as seen with his brother Portgas D. Ace and his grandfather.


Roronoa Zoro (ロロノア・ゾロ)


He is a swordsman and the first member of Straw Hat Pirates to join the crew. His family name, Roronoa, comes from the real-life French pirate François l'Ollonais. The name "Zoro" comes from the Japanese "zorome", meaning a palindrome (a sequence that is the same backwards and forwards), since his birthday is November 11 (11/11). Zoro is a skilled swordsman who fights with santōryū, three daito (大刀:だいとう:, dairefers to Japanese long sword) katana (刀:かたな, Katana: is a type of Japanese backsword, and his own unique fighting style. Though not a samurai, he appears to maintain a certain degree of bushido (武士道:, Bushidō), meaning "Way of the Warrior, and is frequently mistaken for one.

He also likes sake, almost to the degree that Luffy likes meat, but like Nami (ナミ), he never gets drunk due to his inhumanly-high endurance and tolerance for alcohol. Another notable trait is his lack of orientation, as Zoro often gets lost, even in small, familiar spaces or when being led by someone. His goal is to become the world's best swordsman. To accomplish this, he has to defeat Dracule "Hawk Eye" Mihawk who, as of now in the story, holds the title. He confronted Mihawk once during the Baratie arc but lost to a 6 inch knife and was left with the huge scar on the front of his torso, which was caused by Mihawk's Black Sword (Großes Messer: meaning "great knife", also called Hiebmesser). After his defeat Zoro vowed never again to lose in terms of swordsmanship to anyone. Zoro's three katanas are Wadō Ichimonji (和道一文字;The One Road of Harmony), Sandai Kitetsu (三代鬼徹;Third Generation Demon-Splitter, alsoknown as Kitetsu III), Yubashiri (雪走;Snow Run/Snow Step; Snow Crasher or Running Snow).

Rurouni Kenshin(るろうに剣心) III

Know what...we have come to the last part of Rurouni Kenshin...awww......


四乃森 蒼紫 (Shinomori Aoshi)





四乃森 蒼紫 (Shinomori Aoshi) is a fictional "Okashira", or leader, of the Oniwabanshu (お庭番衆). He is 26 years old with black hair and ice-blue eyes. Stern, concise and cold, he is a genius spy. He seems to be unemotional most of the time but he has a soft spot reserved for his friends and Makimachi Misao (巻町 操). Aoshi was raised a ninja of the Oniwabanshū, who worked for the Shogunate government during the Edo period. Aoshi came face to face with Kenshin, When Kenshin was trying to rescue Takani Megumi (高荷 恵). Their battle ends with Aoshi's defeat. To put an end to the feud between them and to prove who is truly the strongest, both Aoshi and Kenshin decided to use their strongest attacks (their succession attacks, or "Ōugi"). Kenshin's Amakakeru Ryū no Hirameki defeats Aoshi's Kaiten Kenbu Rokuren. Before Kenshin leaves Kyoto, he asks if Aoshi would like to share a drink (of sake) with him; Aoshi refuses the offer, but goes on to say he would be willing to have tea with him when they meet again.

Aoshi's weapon of choice is a kodachi (小太刀:こだち). He originally used only one of these short swords, but later used a two-sworded style, employing a pair of the swords. When in their saya (鞘: さや; a sheath for holding a sword or other large blade), they appear to be part of a single sheathed sword, one blade appearing to be the hilt, while the second blade is stationed opposite the first and blends in with the saya itself, giving it the impression of being a nodachi ((野太刀:のだち, nodachi) is a large two-handed Japanese sword) . A dangerous opponent, he uses his speed together with a mix of sword and hand-to-hand combat moves called Kenpo (拳法, Kenpō: literally meaning "fist principles" or "fist method").


志々雄真実 (Makoto Shishio)



One of the most powerful enemies Kenshin has ever faced. The new Meiji government believed it would be in their best interests to eliminate Shishio as not only being powerful, Shishio is also a man who desired power. Thus during the Boshin War, Shishio was rendered unconscious by a blow to the head, doused in oil and burned alive by the new government formed by the Ishin Shishi. He survived, sustaining severe damage to his entire body. As a result of the damage done to his sweat glands, he could fight for no more than fifteen minutes; otherwise his temperature would continue to rise.

Afterwards, he assembled a group of the best fighters in Japan, called the Juppongatana (Ten Swords), to overthrow the Meiji government. Shishio envisioned a Japan ruled by him, enforcing the principles of natural selection, or what he called "the strong eat the weak. During his last fight with Kenshin, his body became so hot, his blood started to evaporate. Yumi (his lover) attempted to stop Kenshin out of concern for Shishio, but was impaled by Shishio's sword along with Kenshin. Yumi died happily knowing she had finally been of use in battle to her love. In the end Shishio was not exactly able to "surpass his limit". Right when he reached his limit, his temperature skyrocketed—igniting his body fat and oils—leaving him to die burning alive. As he did, he laughed maniacally, the meaning to the laughter lost to everyone. His most loyal servant, Hoji, followed him straight to the grave, slitting his throat in prison when the Meiji Government refused to let him have a public trial. At the end of the Kyoto Arc, he is seen with Yumi and Hoji in Hell. All three walk off into the distance, with Shishio claiming that he will conquer Hell.

One of the swords he uses is a serrated blade called Mugenjin which is soaked in the flesh and body fat of the victims he had killed over the years. As a result, he is able to execute fire-oriented techniques. Like Kenshin, he is able to register his opponent's techniques, and then analyze their strengths and weaknesses, taking advantage of them. His will to live is abnormally strong, almost as powerful as Kenshin's.Shishio's strength, durability, and ability to read his opponent place him in the same league as Kenshin. Shishio uses Mugenjin to execute techniques referred to by Hoji as "The Three Secret Swords".

Let's hope there will be more people falling in love with this set of beauty….
