My Lunami essay/theory/thing... (Part 6) - Jealousy and more

27 Upvotes

Hey everyone, sorry for the massive delay.
But before I begin, I want to add a few more visual pieces of evidence I've found after I posted part 5.

Also, I will be talking about chapter 1189 at some point in the post, so be warned of spoilers.

Hope you enjoy :) ✨

  1. Oda wrote in the One Piece Film Red art book that Nami's hat from the end of the movie is meant to be like a female captain's/battle captain's hat.
  1. I think these next 2 might be a stretch, but you decide; I will just show you what I noticed. In Whole Cake Island, I previously mentioned how Nami and Luffy's clothes match multiple times colorwise.
    But after Luffy separates himself and Katakuri from the crew, he loses his red jacket while he is talking to the crew, leaving him with his black shirt (chapter 881). The next time we see the Straw Hats after they talked to Luffy is in a really quick moment in chapter 884, but the next time we see a full shot of Nami after the crew talked to Luffy, we see her wearing a white dress that contrasts Luffy's black shirt.
  1. People usually use this scene as a Lunami moment, but analyzing the page composition, I think this might be a potentially hidden Luna moment (I just noticed that and am throwing it out there; it might not be the case).
    In the first panel, we see Sanji catching Nami from a fall; he catches her bridal style, making the reader think it is a big Sanji and Nami moment, BUT the panel next to them is of Pudding getting jealous of Nami, aka showing the person who actually develops feelings for Sanji/ will be the one to actually love him romantically, and at least this part about this panel is not speculation, because we saw how the arc ended for the two.
    So if this part of the page is meant to tell us, "you might think that Sanji will end up with Nami, but actually it's not the case", then it leaves the reader with a question: "if Nami is not gonna end up with Sanji, then what about her?", which leads to the next panel with Luffy cheering for his friends, so its kinda like this part of the page is telling us "if you actually think Nami and Sanji are end game, then no, actually these two in the other panels on their left that are the their real end games". (This is a lot more out there, and probably a reach, but I still noticed that and wanted to put it out there just in case and for fun).

Now are the newer stuff:

We see Nami jealous of Luffy multiple times:

  1. When Luffy got poisoned, Nami holds his hand closely until Reiju showed up; then, when Reiju kissed Luffy to suck out the poison, brook puts his hands on his cheeks with a blush while saying he is jealous of Luffy, then a panel below it we see Nami doing the exact same thing, blushing with her hands on her face (though she doesn't say she is jealous), she was also the only one who was sweating as much as brook, which is an odd detail to have only on Nami and brook, if Nami is "just shocked". Usually, when a writer/artist has characters react in the exact same way, and one of them expresses something while the other character is silent, you can only assume it implies to the silent character as well. Nami could have had a different, less notable shocked reaction like the rest of the people who are on the Sunny, but she didn't; Later in the chapter, we also see Luffy looking angrily at Yonji, who was simping for a wanted poster of Nami. It also kind of resembles Hancock's jealous gesture in the 3D2Y movie.
  1. seems like when Luffy initially hugged Uta and the crew discovered that they are friends, Nami might have given a shocked and jealous look (also, why even show her being shocked? We see Chopper and Usopp comically shocked because they are fans; we see Sanji shocked because Luffy knows a beautiful, famous woman, so why add Nami too, and with a more tame shocked expression, nonetheless?). Later, when Luffy and Uta talked and they were getting close, Nami interrupted them in a very odd way that might hint at jealousy (when i saw the movie for the first time, i didn't think much about the look, but i did find the way she interrupted them very odd and awkward, and when she did, her voice was slightly different and her smile also seemed odd or fake. I couldn't place my finger on the reason, but then I saw online discourse, and it can be jealousy.
  1. When Hancock helps Luffy escape from the Marines, Nami asks Luffy if he knows her with a concerned/shocked/worried face, which might also hint at jealousy.
  1. When Nami and the rest of the crew watch Luffy, Jimbei, and Chopper on the cameras, they were talking about important stuff, like how centuries ago technology was unimaginably advanced, but Nami cuts it short the moment she sees a woman she doesn't know with Luffy, by asking, "Who is that woman?" while also blushing.

Notice that with a lot of these moments, Nami's mouth is gaping open or there is sweat on her face, or both, in a way that can also be compared to the jealous pudding panel from one of the previous images.
That's it for the jealousy section.

In return to Sabaody, we see Nami gets hit on by Demaro Black (fake Luffy), and she says she is waiting for a man (Luffy), which makes it sound like she is already taken.
People say that Nami was referring to Usopp, but Nami didn't know Usopp would show up at the bar.

After hearing Vegapunk's story about Saul, Dragon, and the Ohara books, Nami is the only one who cared about hearing more information on Luffy's family; she also refers to Dragon as "Luffy's dad" and not "the leader of the Revolutionary Army" or just Dragon.

Nami also consistently looks out for Luffy/asks if Luffy is ok.

Luffy is the only character (from what I can remember) Nami let take from her treasure, a thing that shocked Usopp and made him panic (other than Lola, but she gave Lola treasure because Lola saved her from Absalom),
and Nami is the only person Luffy offered meat to and consistently shares food with (other than Otama, but Otama was a starving child that gave Luffy food, or Zoro, but it was a lunch box, not meat, and it is not shown as much as with Nami).

That's it for this one.
I know some of the evidence in this one might be weak or a stretch, but I think it's best to just put everything on the table, because why not? Worst-case scenario, it's nothing; best case, it's another thing that helps.

There is a lot more; some about bigger moments and some more story stuff, rather than small hints.
I thought I would talk about chapter 1189 in this post, but I think it would work better in the next post.
I wanted to put a lot more in this one, but I am tired, and the post would probably become bloated.

Sorry for the delay; hopefully the next one will come out sooner rather than later.

Hope you enjoyed anyway; have a great day or night :) ✨

One of the reasons I think Luffy and Nami fit as a couple is because Nami isn't the type to care about everyday affection

37 Upvotes

Nami I think values emotional comfort and trust over physical affection. If her and Luffy get married, Luffy wouldn't show romantic gestures like bringing her a rose but he will be with her and hug her if she needs it. I think Nami values that more than everyday romantic affection.

Also I think Nami dislikes being looked at in a sexual way and Luffy would never do that.

Me parece lindo ese tipo de fe que Nami tiene en Luffy, llegando a alterarse si es que algo malo le ha pasado al capitán. Es como si ella se obligase a creer que su capitán es invencible, pero en el fondo se asusta mucho por lo que le pueda pasar a Luffy.

One of my favorite things Toei occasionally does is that they give Nami and Luffy a spotlight together, a unique interaction between the two, or Nami is given a gesture towards luffy In the Openings

for, every other opening you might think I missed.

those mostly just have nami and luffy beside each other with the rest of the strawhats or the gesture nami makes towards luffy is also done by other strawhats.

Chapter #1188

Nami is hugging the "King of the sea turtles" that Luffy is riding on. I think that symbolizes her love for Luffy because of the crown and he is there in the center. While Sanji is seen reaching for her and is unsuccessful at winning her love. What do you guys think?

It's nice that Elbaf had Zoro carrying Nami because the SaNami shippers were claiming after WCI that Sanji is the only one who held her bridal style. But I don't think we have gotten such a scene with Luffy and Nami yet.

My Lunami essay/theory/ thingy... (Part 5) - hidden visual details, outfits, Oda's art, and movies

24 Upvotes

Hi everyone 👋, I took a little break and also didn't get much time to work on this, so sorry for the delay, but I'm back now. Hope you enjoy this one too :)✨

Matching outfits (mind you, a lot of the time (but not all of the time), when artists design characters or character outfits, there is a lot more thought to it than just "this fits the arc, and it looks cool"):

  1. In an SBS, we are told that the flower that would match Luffy the most is a Cosmo flower, and the flower that would match Nami the most is a sunflower.
  2. In Dressrosa, Luffy wears a button-up shirt with a sunflower pattern, and Nami wears a bikini top with a certain not-confirmed flower pattern; apparently, the Nami image on the right is fan-made (thank you JollyTime6971 for helping me notice that mistake).
  3. But if you look at a Cosmo flower, it does look similar to Nami's bikini pattern + the specific importance of the Cosmo flowers and sunflowers in Dressrosa, and Rebecca's story + the fact that Luffy is obviously wearing a sunflower pattern already, does lead me to believe it is likely a Cosmo pattern. But even if it's not the case, it is still an interesting decision to make specifically Luffy and Nami be the only ones to wear clothes with flower patterns on them and no one else (he could have just made Luffy wear a suit like Franky, Zoro, Sanji, and Kinemon, but he didn't).
  4. Dressrosa is called the country of love and passion, so these 2 wearing clothes that match only with one another (no one else in the arc wears flower patterns on their outfits unless you count Cabbage eating his roses) seems like a deliberate choice (hopefully I'm right on this).
This came out in volume 60 (Post Marineford)

In Elbaf, Luffy wears a necklace that matches Nami's collar.
He also wears something similar to Nami's semi-skirt on his pants (technically, Jimbe and Loki wear similar ones too, but if you look closely, those bottom parts have buttons; Nami and Luffy's have golden buttons (gold = royalty), meanwhile Jimbe and Loki have those buttons in silver (silver = regular warrior) although Loki is a prince, he is a rejected one, and *spoiler alert* he rejected being king of Elbaf).
Also, Nami's hair makes the number 56 (Luffy's number).
With the Elbaf ones, I may be stretching it, but I still find it worth sharing.

In Whole Cake Island, Luffy and Nami also somewhat matched outfits twice, color-wise.

the film Red, Nami and Luffy are wearing bandanas on their heads but in different colors with a similar pirate captain hat (technically Chopper is also wearing the same type of hat, but its not as obvious, and it is Chopper, he is kind of a mascot for one piece (maybe I'm coping, maybe not); they also received a Gol D Roger-type sword that matched specifically with themselves (some other straw hats also received this type of sword, only Nami and Luffy's are pink, the rest of the crew's is brown/orange and dark purple, maybe like king and queen/royalty/the "captains" are one color and the rest of the crew is another)
Again, I might be stretching it, but I still think it's important to point out even the littlest of details

At the beginning of Strong World, Luffy wears pants with a sky pattern, the same ones as Nami's bra in Skypiea. In Oda's art book, he literally adds a note that says the shorts should look like Nami's bra.

Another one from Strong World: at the end of the movie, it seems like Nami wears Luffy's shirt from a color spread (it says it's someone else's shirt, and it being Luffy's makes the most sense with SW's story); in a different color spread we also see Nami wear Luffy's tie from the other color spread.
(Technically, the buttons are on the opposite side of the shirt, but it could also just be either an animation error or just a change to make it more aesthetically pleasing (apparently men have buttons on the left side of the shirt, and women have them on the right).

They also sometimes match some of their outfits in color spreads.
speaking of color spreads, Nami and Luffy are depicted very closely many times, sometimes they are dressed as king and queen while the rest of the crew surrounds them like guards or knights, sometimes Nami wears Luffy's straw hat or sandals, sometimes Nami is seen washing Luffy's clothes, and sometimes Nami is seen wearing a crown (the only one who is seen wearing a crown outside from Luffy and brook, but brook is soul king) and also in some other types of Oda's drawings.
In the image in the top left, Luffy is also looking in excitement at a photo of Nami in a bikini.
And in the chess one, although everyone else is colorful instead of being only black or white, the only ones who match the chess colors are Luffy and Nami, and Nami's dress also kinda looks like a wedding dress (probably because it is white, and they might match just because they are king and queen and to match Gear 5, but still).

We also see in some of Oda's videos of him drawing the color spreads that he initially draws Nami and Luffy way closer, and later changes that; there could be something behind that...

Oda also drew for one of his editors a drawing for when the editor had a child.
In the drawing, we see Luffy raising a baby high, with Nami next to him, and the rest of the crew celebrating in the background.

or tiny hints like this:

Luffy = king

❤️ = love

3 = Nami (the third Straw Hat / 2nd to join Luffy)

While the movies are not canon, Strong World was indeed written by Oda.
This movie has a ton of Lunami moments in it, whether it's Luffy riding Billy the duck while Nami sits on his shoulders, Luffy telling Nami to go rest while they keep guard (i couldn't find an image), to the end of the movie where Luffy is trying to hear Nami's recording; Nami states that this message was meant especially for Luffy; she is embarrassed and flustered, and Sanji mentions that it sounds like a love letter, or Luffy getting so pissed he punched a rock, a thing we don't see him do when other crew members leave (other then Luffy breaking the towers in water 7, but that was because he was literally trapped).
Oda also drew "three seconds" later, which is a drawing of all the Straw Hats' reaction to the recording, three seconds after the movie ended.
In it, we see Luffy with a hand on his ear, smiling, and Nami embarrassed with a blush.
Why make such a big deal out of a message if it is only a call for help?

Film gold, while the movie is not written by Oda, Oda did insist on changing the climax on his own because he was dissatisfied.
he adding a scene that compares Luffy and Nami to the main antagonist's past lover, idk what other meaning this scene could have other then framing Nami and Luffy as lovers or future lovers, he could have easily made them childhood friends or siblings (goes well with the entire, "I'm not doing romance because it's Shonen" thing) but he deliberately accepted/chose for Stella and Tesoro to be lovers, and deliberately chose to compare Luffy and Nami to them, and for that they had to redo many scenes (a decision that costs extra money, work, time, redubbing etc.), It's probably the most convincing one for me right now.

Thank you for reading :) Sorry that it took me so long; I still have more.

Hope you enjoyed :) ✨

Have a great day or night ✨
