author one pieceEiichiro ODA is a character design that likes quite wrong and creative, and it is clear that he has gained a lot of inspiration in many styles and times when he creates many major individuals found throughout the story. One of these examples is Gothic aesthetics, famous for its dark, mysterious and depressed style, related to several characters. one piece.

But considering that this series is generally presented as a very optimistic and vivid thing for most times, it is not often that fans see a character that seems to be torn straight in Gothic novels. With it in mind, these are the biggest examples. one piece A person who can be considered Gothic in design, personality and overall presentation.

Charlotte Katakuri

Katakuri decided to duplicate the Goth Fashion Style in the 90s.

• First appearance: Episode 825

Even though I introduced the recent story throughout Cake Island ARC, it did not take long for Katakuri to be one of the most beloved villains in the whole series. His unique Mochi devil fruit ability is clearly related to this, but many love focuses on his design. His design seems to integrate numerous different styles of the gothic fashion sense of the 1990s.

With a short dark biker jacket and a solid black leather pants equipped with a spike color, the character's shape appears to be greatly affected by this specific period and style. He also chooses a box that becomes a quiet, depressed and scary character because of a huge scarf that can always cover his mouth as if it doesn't open his mouth.

Monkey D. Dragon

Often, a shaded and mysterious leader who can see the state of the world

• First appearance: Episode 52

Unlike his son, Luffy, Dragon is certainly not a lot of words. In his small appearance, the dragon seems to look at him from afar while planning the next movement for himself and his revolutionaries. As a person who always covers his face and usually wants to wear a long black trench coat, he has a Gothic inspiration element at least in his design.

It is very rare to see this person smiling, so this does not mention his sour taste. Instead, fans can assume that they are always thinking about the next dangerous work set. This is a lot of meaning considering the amount of stress as a leader of the revolutionary army.

Victorian Sindri

A famous stage actor once returned from death

• First appearance: episode 340

Cindry appears very briefly near the beginning of the thriller shell, but fans still learn about tragic background stories, so you can ultimately understand how she ultimately became a zombie. Cindry was once a famous actress, but after she fell off the stage and lost her life, she returned to a zombie by a crazy scientist known as HOGBACK completely obsessed with her for many years.

Cindry's story seems to be a great plot line for Gothic novels. Because it often contains all the related themes and concepts that appear in the book. Cindry's zombified exterior is also creepy to be classified as a Gothic style, and she has become somewhat fascinating, even though she has only been given a limited amount of screen time.

Nico Robin

Robin's mysterious Persona and dark humor distinguish her from other straw hats.

• First appearance: Episode 67

In childhood, it was fun and outgoing, but Robin's world was gone after the hometown of Ohara was completely gone by the marine buster call. In order to hide her identity, Robin will eventually take a much different persona in a cunning and mysterious assistant of the crocodile before she is finally saved by Luffy and Straw Hats.

One of Robin's main reasons for his fellow Nakama is her dark humor. She never fears to mention how straw hat can die when she enters a new island, and sometimes it may surprise others, but still reminiscent of other virtual Gothic characters. Of course, Robin also has her terrible devil form and will not be seen in Dracula novels.

Gecko Moria

The original sculpture is like Frankenstein.

• First appearance: Episode 343

In Canon, Gecko Moria is classified as a human being, but humans can come to all shapes and sizes in the world. one piece, Moria raises this to a completely different level. As a leader of a thriller peel pirate. Moria will seem at least a bit annoying, but in fact, ODA seems to be trying to insert his version of Mary Shelly's Frankenstein, one of the most prominent figures in Gothic literature.

His huge hair, handkerchief stabbed from his collar, and the sharp teeth all give the impression that Moria's body was handmade. Moria's Devil Fruit allows you to manipulate people's shadows and provide another Gothic reference to help other monarchs and Moria.

2

Ferrona

As she came from the 19th century, the whole thriller shell pirate dress

• First appearance: Episode 343

Considering that Perona debuted in the thriller shell story arc, it tells me why she can have a strange and versatile appearance. She may have a bright pink hair and a small colorful decoration that covers her body, but ODA is clear that it is very traditional when creating a favorite character.

For example, PERONA has a pair of black eyes with a pair of black eyes, especially when paired with her threatening skull. It creates a rather scary aura around the Perona. ODA has further developed this design system since TimeSKIP, and her character's gothic shades have spread much more widespread in the process.

Dracule Mihawk

The legendary swordsman boasts a Gothic fashion style to threaten his enemies.

• First appearance: episode 23

Considering that Mihawk's name is literally one letter from the spelling of Dracula, it is clear that ODA returns to the early Victorian Gothic novels when trying to create the character and design of this previous sea general. But before you know your name, you just need to look at Michak simply by looking at his dark clothes and the only eerie eumble look.

Religion often says in the story. one piece, The fact that ODA decided to cross Mihawk to his necklace is another comment on the core themes and ideas that often appear in Gothic literature. Mihawk is a fantastic character not only due to its brilliant combat style, but also due to its current symbolic design, which is heavily influenced by the Gothic world.
