Ethnicity Challenge

What ethnicity do you think the One Piece characters have?

Eichiro Oda has a wide range of characters, and each character has very distinct features, outfits, and personalities. So we thought, why not match up these people’s looks to real countries around the world! So, here are our match-ups. Scroll down below and Contact us for your own submissions _ (repeats are allowed). NOTE: This is not supposed to be offensive, so we apologize if it is, just for fun _. Obviously everything here is based on STEREOTYPES. So, please excuse us and all the people who comment for that, every person from each ethnicity is different. You can always put your own opinions on the same characters ^_~.

Alvida
Alvida is from AMERICA. She seems like a cowboy-wannabe with her hat, and since as some people said, she got “liposuction” she must be American. Her greed also points to the same thing lol…

Arlong
Arlong must be from JAMAICA. Why? He wears cool shorts, an open shirt and seems to love the water, hence he must be an islander. Jamaica is a fun place where there is a lot of partying but also a place where nobody can truely control (trafficking etc.) so there you go Arlong :P!

Buggy
Buggy is from RUSSIA. Why? Because he is a clown, and the Russian circus is quite famous and so Buggy must be Russian. His very weird abilities make him more famous, and since he seems to surround himself with very talented people and cool lion he must be Russian lol.

Chopper
Chopper is from CANADA. Canada has some nice cold places, and many small towns. Seeing his history, Chopper living in a weather climate like that, he can live in Canada. Antartica has different fauna, so that’s not possible. But in Canada he would fit right in. Imagine him saying ‘aye’ :P.

Crocodile
Crocodile must be from KUWAIT. Crocodile has arab features, and in Kuwait they have darker skin color (been there) and since he seems to have a lot of pride and power, he reminds me of the King there.

Eneru
Eneru is from TIBET. Although he’s extremely white, he seems like a Buddha almost, and his long ears remind me of some of the old statues found in Tibet. Tibet is also a place in war (apart of China) and since it’s quite unstable there, Eneru seems to be the perfect candidate.

Luffy
Luffy is from BORACAY. He’s obviously an islander and since he seems more outgoing and free, telling the political situation there, he must be from Bohemia lol. He also has a round face and is very tanned, his hat makes him seem a bit poor…

Mihawk
Mihawk must be from SPAIN. He looks very Latino, and his outfit reminds me of those high class people from Spain. However, unlike Zoro he seems more reserved, and his cross shape on the Sword seems to be pointing to religion, so since Spain is Catholic— he must be Spanish.

Nami Nami must be from SCOTLAND. Why? Because of her red hair. She also seems to be really outgoing and fun, so since Scottish people seem to love to have fun drinking, dancing, having fun :D She must be Scottish!

Robin
Robin is from EGYPT. She has dark features, and her nose really matches a Egyptian. Does she not remind you of those women in the those old Papyrus drawings. She also is an archeologist, and what other place can she be in than Egypt (with one of the oldest cultural hearths).

Sanji
Sanji is from the USA. He reminds me of Brad-Pitt lol. His suit, attitude, love of women, and addiction to the cigerette all point to being American. Some may say he’s British because of etiquette with women but hey, aren’t all men like that in front of women :P. Sanji is quite outgoing and very picky about his looks (sorta like a Hollywood Star)

Usopp
Usopp must be FRENCH. Look at him, his hair is curly and black, his nose long and pretty much if you put a flower and a cigerette in his mouth you can imagine him over a French Cafe attracting the women ;).

Vivi
Vivi is from GREECE. Her blue hair and figure reminds me of a greek woman in Athens lol (esp. in that princess dress of hers). She sorta reminds me of Aphrodite since Aphrodite is the goddess of love and really doesn’t do anything else but that >_< (hates Vivi).

Zoro
Zoro must be from MEXICO. His skin color points to non-caucasian origins, and his looks point to latin origins. He’s not that religious so he can’t be from the strict catholic/european places such as Portugal and Spain (historical wise) hence he must be Mexican. His green hair and bandana fit the part, and obviously his name has some meaning to a legendary hero…
