The protagonist of the best-selling shonen in the world is a boy who follows the typical dictates of the shonen: always cheerful, glutton, with a very important dream that will make him one of the most important characters in the story. Also, he’s not very interested in women. That Characteristics of Luffy in ONE PIECE are these.
But, is this really the truth? Is Luffy really not into women? In fact, many fans remember some events they saw The ONE PIECE protagonist reacts to Nami’s physique in some volumes. In volumes 18 and 23, relative to the beginning, Luffy gets a nosebleed from Nami. However, that doesn’t happen when he sees Boa Hancock’s naked body on Amazon Lily. What is the explanation for this discrepancy?
According to Eiichiro Oda, the Blame Usopp. Yes, Luffy’s friend and crewmate is the one who brings out the “evil side” of ONE PIECE’s protagonist. On the occasions where Luffy has lost nosebleeds, Usopp has also been there, who is the same age as the captain and therefore influences him with his attitudes. However, Luffy is generally interested in women, but not that much, and so he defied Boa Hancock.
This is also why there will be no romance in ONE PIECE, although fans would love to see how it plays out in this Sanji and Pudding cosplay.
