Great Corsairs

Seven Great Corsairs (Japanese: 王下七武海 Shichibukai, Seven Great Corsairs)- these are seven pirates with whom the World Government entered into an agreement. In exchange for removing the reward for their capture, the pirates undertake to attack only other pirates and give 10th of the loot to the World Government. Despite the small number of Great Corsairs, each of them had impressive rewards for their capture in the past and were dangerous pirates. Their main area of ​​operation is the Grand Line.

The Great Corsairs include:

  • "Hawk Eyes" (Japanese: 鷹の目 Taka no Mae) Dracul Mihawk- The strongest swordsman in the world, called the “monster of monsters.” Also, for two years he was the mentor of one of the protagonists, Roronoa Zoro, teaching him how to wield a sword.

After the war with Whitebeard, Doflamingo tried to kill him, on the grounds that the government no longer needed him, but Moria managed to escape.

11 supernovae

The 11 rookie pirates who arrived on Sabaody at almost the same time, whose bounty is more than 100 million bellis, are collectively called the “11 Supernovae”:

Marine

Marine (Japanese: 海軍 Kaigun) - the main naval force of the world government in the fight against pirates. The Marines have enormous human and material resources. Marine bases are located all over the world, but the main focus is on the Grand Line. However, it should be noted that in the second half of the Grand Line, in the New World, the fleet has much less ability to control and combat pirates. There, the main force and authority are the four Yonko.

Marshal of the Watch was "Buddha" Sengoku, possessing the mythical zoan Man-Man, a model Buddha statue, allowing him to transform into a Buddha and create powerful shock waves. After the Battle of Marineford, he resigned due to the fact that he could no longer tolerate the actions of the world government.

The strongest admirals of the Marine fleet are considered "Blue Pheasant" Kuzan, manager of ice, "Scarlet Dog" Sakazuki(voiced by Tachiki Fumihiko), whose Magma-Magma Fruit powers allow him to control magma, and "Yellow Monkey" Borsalino(voiced by Unsho Ishizuka), thanks to the Glitter Glitter fruit, he controls light particles. Following the resignation of Marshal Sengoku, Sakazuki and Kuzan fought over his position, leading to the former becoming the new Marine Marshal and the latter resigning. As revealed in the Dressrosa arc, Kuzan's place was taken by a new fleet admiral, "Purple Tiger" Issho is a blind old man with a cross-shaped scar across both eyes who has the devil fruit's ability to control gravity and summon meteorites.

"Fist" Monkey D. Garp- admiral and hero of the Marines, who fought with the Pirate King more than once. The revolutionary's father and the protagonist's grandfather. After the war with Belous, he resigned, retaining his rank, and returned to East Blue.

Smoker(from the English smoker - smoker) - captain of the 1st rank, and later admiral of the Watch. Has the power of the Smoke-Smoke fruit. Has been pursuing Luffy since the very beginning of the adventure - from Loguetown. He constantly smokes two cigars. He was voiced by: Matsuo Ginjo > Oba Mahito. Smoker is accompanied by his team: "Cell Man" Hina, captain 1st rank of the Marines, and petty officer 1st class, and later captain 1st rank Tashigi, a clumsy girl who has set herself the goal of taking all the famous swords from the hands of those who would use them for their own purposes. For this reason, Roronoa is pursued by Zoro, who possesses three of these swords.

Kobe- a young man who served as a cabin boy on a ship in the East Blue, and was later rescued by Luffy and joined the Marines. Together with Helmeppo, son of caperang Morgan, found himself under the command of Admiral Garp. During the battle with Whitebeard, Koby's Will of the Contemplator awakened. Two years later, it turns out that Kobe has already received the rank of captain of the 1st rank.

Cypher Paul

Cypher Paul (Japanese: サイファーポール Saifa Poru, English Cipherpol) lit. - "Cipher-Pol"- an organization controlled only by the world government and mainly engaged in its “dirty affairs”, often resorting to illegal methods. It is divided into 8 groups, designated CP1-CP8, and there is also a secret, ninth Cypher Pol - CP9. There is also CP0 "Aegis" - the strongest group of Cypher Pol, working directly under the command of the World Nobles.

Before Luffy's team defeated them, the ninth Cypher Paul included:

  • Spandam, head of CP9, despite such a high position, is very weak and in battle relies only on his sword, which is endowed with the power of the zoan fruit that turns him into an elephant.
  • Rob Lucci, the strongest member of Cypher Paul in history, possessing the power of the Zoan Leopard Fruit (Cat-Cat Fruit, Model: Leopard);
  • Kaku, former carpenter in Water Seven, possessing the power of the zoan giraffe fruit, strong swordsman;
  • Dzyabura, who ate a wolf-type zoan, the third most powerful in CP9;
  • Blueno, having the ability of a fruit to open doors anywhere leading to an invisible subspace;
  • Kumadori, a strange guy who behaves like a Noh actor, uses his hair and Bo staff in battle;
  • Owl, a master of hidden murders who loves to chat, associates himself with an owl;
  • Kalifa, which has the ability of the fruit to “wash away” the power from everything it touches or that gets caught in its foam. It fights mainly with its feet or with a spiked rope.
  • Nero, was in contention to join CP9, but was killed by Rob Lucci for being weak.

It should be noted that every member of CP9, except Spandam, is proficient in the martial art of the Six Fighting Styles ( translated from Japanese. "Six Styles"), which gives them superhuman strength, durability and speed.

The identities of the members of CP0 “Aegis” have not yet been revealed, it is only known that this is the strongest group among the rest of Cypher Pol.

Enies Lobby

Justice Island and CP9 headquarters. It is located on a day island and is an important facility of the World Government. In this regard, his security is ensured by 10,000 soldiers. It was destroyed after the "Challenge of the Punishers". Through the Gates of Justice it is connected to Impel Down and Marineford.

Revolutionaries

The world government is opposed by an organization of revolutionaries led by Monkey D. Dragon, son of an admiral and father of Monkey D. Luffy.

Among his supporters is a transvestite Emporio Ivankov, who was waiting for the revolutionaries to act in Impel Down, but led his followers out of the great prison to help Luffy; Inazuma - Ivankov's closest friend, and one of the Great Corsairs. During a two-year break - Nico Robin. And brother of Portgas D. Ace and Monkey D. Luffy - Sabo.

Others

Clown Buggy Pirates

"Clown" Buggy was a cabin boy on the ship, but later gathered his own crew. Captain of the Buggy Pirates. At the beginning of the story, the team of Luffy, Zoro and Nami prevented him from capturing the city. He was later captured by the Marines and imprisoned in Impel Down, from where he was rescued by Luffy. He possesses the Delhi-Delhi Devil Fruit's ability to split his body into parts and control them. Two years later, it turns out that he took the post of Great Corsair.

Alvida (Japanese: アルビダ Arubida) Iron Club was the first opponent Luffy defeated and the captain of his own crew. After her defeat, she ate the Slip-Slide fruit, turning into a beauty, and joined the Buggy Pirates to capture Luffy.

Black Cat Pirates (Captain Kuro)

The Black Cat Pirates appear at the beginning of the work on their home island. Pirate captain "Strategist" Kuro, tired of being persecuted by the Marines, faked his death three years before the start of the work. He took a job in the home of a wealthy family and planned activities that would allow him to gain wealth in a "legal" way so that he could quit piracy. Was stopped by Luffy's crew.

When watching adventure anime that do not take place in Japan, the viewer often has a question: what is the nationality of the heroes? In most cases, the authors of the work do not give a clear answer, so sometimes debates even flare up on anime forums over the nationality of a particular character. Fans of the famous anime “One Piece” (“Snatch”) are very lucky in this regard - the author of the manga recently revealed the secret of the nationalities of all the main characters, so there will no longer be any need to break spears in Internet disputes, trying to find out where Luffy comes from.


Oda told where the heroes of “Snatch” come from

“One Piece” manga author Eiichiro Oda has created a special corner for answers to frequently asked questions called “Shitsumon wo Boshu Suru” (“Question Subscription”). In it, he responds to letters sent by fans of “Big Snatch.” For a long time, no one dared to ask such a burning question about the nationality of the heroes of the work. And finally, in the 56th issue, Oda responded to a letter sent to him about the nationalities of the heroes who were part of Luffy’s crew. "If the Straw Hat Pirates lived in the real world, what would their nationality be?" asked a fan. Judging by the wording of the answer, Eiichiro Oda himself had never thought about such a topic before and did not figure out in advance which countries the heroes of his super-famous work were born in. "Well, judging by their appearance, Luffy is Brazilian, Zoro is Japanese, Nami is Swedish, Usopp is African, Sanji is French, Chopper is Canadian, Robin is Russian, Franky is American and Brook is Austrian." The omission of the author, who did not invent the nationality of his heroes in advance, is immediately noticeable. If he had originally planned to portray Sanji as French and Nami as Swedish, he clearly would not have given them Japanese names! The Japanese Zoro's name is not at all Japanese. Of all of them, only one Frankie has a name that matches his nationality.


Do One Piece fans agree with the author's opinion?

One Piece fans immediately wrote that Frankie is a real American, given his considerable weight: this is exactly what many representatives of this nationality look like. With the fact that Luffy looks like a Latino, most also agreed that being Brazilian suits him. But why the bright red-haired Nami suddenly became a Swede, and the brunette Robin with a completely non-Russian name - a Russian woman, most fans did not understand this. Many people think that Nami does not have a Scandinavian appearance, and Robin does not look like a Russian girl. Of all, only one Usopp was left without a specific country of birth: the author said that the hero is African, but where exactly in Africa was he born? Maybe in South Africa, One Piece fans speculated. Many anime fans disagreed with this point of view: some consider Usopp to be Indian, others - Italian. Many also doubted that Zoro was Japanese. A little earlier in the month, there was a lively discussion on 2channel regarding Luffy's nationality, and then fans agreed that the hero could be half Japanese, half Brazilian - Brazil has the largest Japanese diaspora compared to other countries in the world.
Do you agree with the nationalities of the characters in “Big Snatch” assigned to them by the author?

Surely everyone has known and remembered this terrible slaughterhouse for a long time... But it’s so interesting for me every time to remember the real prototypes of my favorite Anpisovites that I can’t resist!!!


As you know, Oda “stitched” a huge number of references to real historical figures, legends and characters into One Piece. Let's begin!

Usopp is the main liar on Luffy's team, whose name means "liar" in Japanese. We bet that you have already guessed that the presence of a long nose is clearly not for nothing... Surely Oda borrowed the “liar’s nose” from the famous Italian fairy tale by Carlo Collodi - Pinocchio!

Luffy's characteristic spiky hair, Hawaiian shirt and mischievous nature as a carpenter can't help but remind Jim Carrey's character in the 1994 film Ace Ventura of the same name.

The similarities between Van Auger's costume, gun, and Adolphus from Terry Gilliam's 1988 film The Adventures of Baron Munchausen are obvious.

Aokiji's prototype is Japanese actor Yusaku Matsuda, who died in 1989; The image of the detective from the Tantei Monogatari series most influenced the appearance of the admiral;

Kizaru - Kunie Tanaka and his role as Borsalino from the movie "Trakk Yaro"

And Akainu is Bunta Sugawara; The admiral received his name from the trilogy "Soshiki boryoku: kyodai sakazuki" (1968-1971);

In Japan, there are 2 legends about little heroic boys who are dedicated to the spring holidays. One of them, Kintaro (golden boy - Japanese) is a copy of Sentomaru's appearance, and the other, Momotaro (peach boy - Japanese) gave him the hieroglyph "peach" in his name (). Three admirals are also taken from the legend of Momotaro - on his way to the evil demon, the main character of the legend met a monkey, a pheasant and a dog.

Many fans believe that the image of Django was inspired by Ode by singers Michael Jackson (the famous moonwalk) and Steven Tyler

And declarations of love for the work of rapper Eminem in one of the interviews gave rise to rumors about his features in the image of the god Enel.

And the name Enel may have been taken from one of the great gods of Sumerian-Akkadian mythology, Enlil. Some of his poses and the halo of rings are reminiscent of Buddha statues. His golden staff may have been borrowed from Sun Wukong, the Monkey King from Wu Cheng'en's Journey to the West. And his ability to control lightning is reminiscent of the Japanese god Raijin.

Trafalgar Law is very similar to the stereotype of a modern rocker boy and is reminiscent of one of the Mtv presenters - Mystery.

Basil Hawkins, with his makeup and transformation into a straw man, is very reminiscent of Slipknot drummer Joey Jordison.

Whether it's cruel irony or Oda's love for crunchy breakfasts, Foxy is the spitting image of Count Chocola from a box of chocolate cereal.

Snakes in the Amazon Lily - snakes from Walt Disney cartoons.

Emporio Ivankov - Tim Curry as Dr. Frank-en-Furter from Rocky Horror Picture Show.

The prototype of Pell, the head of the guard from Arabasta, was the ancient Egyptian god Horus, often depicted with the head of a falcon.


The prototype of Chak, the head of the guard from Arabasta, was the ancient Egyptian god Set, often depicted with the head of a dog.


The prototype of Crocodile was probably the famous Captain Hook from the story about Peter Pan. They both have a hook instead of a hand, and as you know, Captain Hook was very afraid of crocodiles, as one of them bit off his hand, perhaps that is why Crocodile in One Piece p

The characters of One Piece (anime about pirates) are distinguished by their bright characters and beliefs. This series has been on screens since the 90s, and during this time hundreds of personalities have appeared in it. Some of them were shown more often, others less often, but they are all considered heroes of this anime. This article will tell readers about the main characters of the film, their hobbies and goals.

Main character

All of the One Piece characters appear on screen from time to time, but the main character, Monkey D. Luffy, is present in every episode. This guy, as a child, gained the ability to stretch his body like rubber. His grandfather was a Marine admiral, and the boy admired him.

Soon Monkey set off on his own, but his dream was freedom of navigation. He wanted to become the pirate king and conquer all the famous bounty hunters. Soon he managed to create a personal team, find a ship and set off to conquer the seas. At the age of seventeen, Monkey managed to attend many battles, and a bounty of five hundred million belli (the currency of a fictional country) was subsequently placed on his head.

Closest associates

The main characters of One Piece are both supporters and opponents of Monkey. All of his closest associates are part of the captain's ship's crew. There is Roreno Zero, nicknamed Pirate Hunter, who always fights with three swords. At the same time, one of them is held clenched in the teeth. Thief Nami is the navigator on the ship, as she has the ability to recognize the weather and never leads the crew into dangerous waters. Usopp, nicknamed God, proclaimed himself the second person on the ship after Monkey, although no one admits this.

This man likes to embellish all his exploits, but is strong enough to use a variety of bombs and slingshot them directly at the target. Sanji is the cook on the ship and values ​​his hands more than any other part of his body. In battle he uses only his legs, and always holds a cigarette in his mouth, since he has been smoking since childhood. He dreams of finding a place where the rarest fish is found in order to prepare delicious dishes from it.

Other team members

The One Piece characters listed above are not Monkey's entire team. It also includes Tony Chopper, who used to be a deer, but ate a rare fruit and turned into a man. He is the doctor on the ship and understands the language of animals. He loves research and even created a special drug that allows him to take different forms in battle. Nico Robin takes the position of archaeologist on the ship. She can grow flowers on her body and read Poneglyphs, which is why Luffy appreciates her.

Frankie, nicknamed Cyborg, is responsible for the integrity of the ship. At first he was an opponent of the pirates, but by coincidence he sided with Monkey and became his friend. Other characters in the One Piece anime are members of other crews, with the exception of the musician Brook, who has the position of musician on the main character's ship. He uses his music not only for entertainment, but also as a weapon.

Other characters

In the One Piece anime, characters outside of Monkey's crew are also hunting for the treasure of the former pirate king Gol D. Roger. This man surrendered to the Marines (government forces) due to illness and declared a huge hidden treasure. The closest to their search was Edward Newgate, also known as Whitebeard. He is the strongest man in this universe. In battle, no one can hold him back, and his blast waves hit everything around him. It is this man who heads one of the most powerful pirate groups called the “Four Emperors”.

The One Piece anime characters from the Great Corsairs organization are the government's arm in the fight against the sea wolves. They entered into an agreement according to which they would only attack other pirates and give tithes to the authorities. They include the strongest swordsman Dracul Mihawk, Empress Boa Hancock, the lord of shadows Gekko Moriya and other strong personalities. In the One Piece cartoon, new characters are always trying to equal these strong warriors and take their place. These include the eleven supernova pirates, as well as government organizations like the one called Cyberpol. These are not all anime characters, because the number of episodes released has long been more than a thousand, and during this time hundreds of different interesting personalities have appeared on the screens to take part in exciting adventures.
