Robin's comment about the wings of the Pirate King are spot on. Sanji's dream of finding the All Blue is a dream of discovery while Zoro's dream of being the greatest swordsman is one of conflict. To be Pirate King Luffy needs both. When Sanji looks bad its almost always because his priority at that time isn't combat. He is always thinking about what is coming around the next corner. It is just an extension of the dynamic that comes into play when Zoro and Sanji argue about who caught the bigger dinosaur on Little Garden. The answer is that it doesn't matter. Luffy already ate both, Sanji is still cooking, and Zoro is taking a nap.

Also important to note that Sanji's role in the crew is quite different from Zoro's or Luffy's. Zoro is the main frontline muscle and Luffy is the closer, so they're basically always going to be doing some amount of fighting. Sanji, though, consistently plays much more of an ace-in-the-hole or independent operative kind of role. The first means that he is necessarily less active than the other two in earlier parts of the arc's conflict (so that he can have his big charge of the winged hussars moment later), and the second means that he's more likely than Zoro to get caught out on his own or otherwise isolated from the main conflict. As I think I've said before, Little Garden, the casino segment of Alabasta, Skypeia, and the whole Water 7 / seatrain sequence are all great examples of Sanji doing his thing in a very prototypical way, with all of the big moments he can get that way and the potential pitfalls for him as a crew asset. Arlong Park has a similar structure for him, but it's not as obvious both because it's an early arc and because Zoro isn't quite able to fill his own typical role.

Yup. Zoro and Luffy are the brawlers and Sanji is the brains. To me this is why zoro is closer to luffy than sanji. Zoro is basically another Luffy busted ass combat ability but dumb as a pile bricks. While sanji has insane combat ability it's not to the same degree but he makes up with that with smarts and overall utility for the crew. Meaning to me in 1v1 Sanji just will never compare to zoro and luffy but in terms of the overall impact to the crew's victory sanji is just as valuable as either of them.

I think the 'Monster Trio' Is exactly as Morj described...it doesn't have to be a static power scale because none of the trio fill the same roles. If you watch how Sanji typically goes through an arc, he's used as a way for Oda to scale certain enemies. Rarely does Sanji ever go out looking for a fight, unlike Luffy or Zorro but when he does encounter an enemy, he's not looking to win the fight, instead he's either stalling or fulfilling an objective. I think there can be a parallel that can be drawn from this entire Wano arc in that Luffy being the 'Emperor (emperor of the sea)', Zorro and Sanji fill the rolls of 'Shoguns' as battlefield commanders of attacking (Zorro) and defense (Sanji).

Sanji struggled vs Vergo? Law one-shot him. Zoro took out Pica, Law took out Trebol (usually would be Sanji). Law did the entire Dressrosa plan and Sanji was sidelined. Etc. I think Oda struggled giving both characters their shine during the Dressrosa saga. That's what caused Sanji's portrayal to struggle for so long.

My "In-Universe" explanation is that Zoro is always playing catch-up with Luffy, and Sanji with Zoro. So when Zoro seems like Luffy's equal, he is pretty much, and when Sanji seems like Zoro's equal, he is pretty much, but neither always is as they are both simply trying to keep up with their captain's mad pace through the world and through getting stronger. Thus, when Luffy is about to make a "big break foward", Zoro can generally catch up, and thereafter needs to catch up again, and Sanji is often hot on Zoro's tail, so when said "big break" happened recently, they both at the very least *seem* equal due to Luffy's greater power.
@PrometheusXV

I personally think it's the opposite I think essentially what is happening is that Luffy is on an unstoppable swell forward, and Zoro and Sanji keep the pace for the most part. They're both perfectly content with Luffy being the strongest on the crew, and it's only in times when the crew is in danger and they're forced into acting that it starts to look like they're catching up. Neither Zoro nor Sanji's goals require that they be the strongest people on the planet. Zoro only needs to be able to beat Mihawk, and Sanji only needs to be strong enough to discover the All Blue. Outside of that, they need to be strong enough to assist Luffy along his path. Ultimately it is Luffy's direct responsibility - as the man who wants to be the freest person in the world, and as the captain - to be practically undefeatable, so that he can maintain that freedom for himself and his friends. Zoro and Sanji understand that, and willingly fall in line with Luffy's goals and his position as the strongest.

@@PrometheusXV I think you partially missed what I meant, but I might just not have been clear. It is not in any way to compete with Luffy that Zoro and Sanji might feel the need to keep up with him, but to be able to help him reach his goals, to stay useful to him as "his wings", as Robin would put it. I do think that part of how Sanji is keeping up however, considering he isn't really as battle-driven as Luffy or Zoro, is due to his rivalry with Zoro, thus the Luffy > Zoro > Sanji relationship with each trying to catch up to the previous one. Also, when it comes to their power-goals, I think it would be fair to say Zoro's requires to be at a strength similar or higher than that of the current Yonkos, and that Sanji's drive not to get outpaced by Zoro will at least drive him that far too.

Open your mind abit and face facts, Sanji didn’t get a good moment in WCI which will probably be the only arc in OP that will be as dedicated as this was and I feel like it could’ve been better in terms of giving him those actual huge feats and moments to actually solidify his place in the monster trio, my guess is people come from with the monster trio argument is because these minor feats you talk of don’t really have a place, dodging etc. Not very big stuff. If he was to completely defeat oven-that would’ve been huge. Zoro has been beasting thru his opponents ever since time skip and it’s just like well Sanji hasn’t taken an L but hasn’t been beasting like he has. I get Oda hasn’t made his character to be that sort of person but yet again this why this discussion exists, but when the raid suit gets thrown into the mix i feel like it does give Sanji a fighting chance up against Zoro who has Enma for god sakes, guess you can’t slash what you can’t see😏.

Coming back to Doriki system, I love how Sanji's opponent was just barely weaker than Zoro's. That way Oda managed to not only keep rivalry going, established that they're both pretty similar in power and made sure that the one from Monster Trio that usually get's Ls is fighting weaker opponent. That way Oda Can use strong character to depict formitable opponents without jeopardising one character that mostly works off of spectacle. Because to be honest you can summarize whole One Piece in Monster trio: Zoro being the amazing spectacle, Sanji being the depth of the characters and Luffy.... Being Luffy. The wackyness, the dreamyness and the heart. All of them have those qualities (I'm not implying that Luffy or Zoro lack depth), but each of those is mostly focusing on one of those more than other two. Zoro is amazing character, but he's pretty limited, as he's the only strawhat that cannot outright loose a fight, so he's mostly used to be powerful badass. Luffy is the main character, and although he is shaping whole story with his will alone, he too have to defeat his opponent eventually. Luffy also can't just give up. He's depicted as someone with indominable will, after all. Out of the three only Sanji gives Oda so much room to put him in different situations. Only he can run away to protect his crew if he thinks there is no other way, only he can lose and stay down, only he can look for creative solution that doesn't involve persuading enemy to commit unliving. Of course that has it's drawbacks, since Sanji is the only character that can have long lasting failures, after couple of arcs(Especially if each lasts over a year) it can make fans of the character rather dissapointed. Especially since Oda is much more creative in New World than in Paradise. I just hope that he will eventually give Sanji his moment that is just as creative as his setbacks.

Huh. Just like the bounty discussion, if you think about it. This trio dynamic is only partially about power levels and overall strength. It's mostly because they are a storytelling trio. They are characters serving the themes of a story before they are fighters with any objective measure of their strength. Strong new crew members do not change this storytelling dynamic because it is the dynamic which determines power level, not the opposite way around. Just as bounties follow from storytelling and not some useless in-universe measuring stick, this power level dynamic exists as a character thing and power levels scale up as needed to follow the storytelling demands.

@@bobbob-zc1nx I personally believe that the Strawhats get stronger after a large fight as opposed to doing individual training like is displayed in other anime. In Enies Lobby, Sanji could barely damage Blueno and does not train at all and is then able to pretty easily overpower Jyabura with Diable Jamble for example. I Zoro did most of the fighting in Dressrosa while Sanji didn't fight until Doffy and then he left to Zou. On the other hand, Sanji did a lot of fighting in WCI while Zoro was undercover in Wano thus bringing them back to a similar playing field where they were both fighting throughout most of Wano when the other SH's get there. I don't think it is incorrect to say Zoro was stronger throughout Dresserossa-most of Wano because he was most active during that time and only recently Sanji came back to that level though his fights.

And we've already seen fights where sanji breaks his bones and still wins. Like in his fight with mr. 2. And after fighting Vergo, Sanji kept walking and running normally like nothing happened the rest of the arc. As for his fight with doffy he had no knowledge of how doffy df functioned. And doffy himself acknowledged he was strong. We already saw the same happen to luffy when he fought doffy. Regardless like the video addressed sanji is used to elevate other characters/enemies strength such as vergo,doffy,etc, even at the cost of his protrayal which may make him appear weak in some instances but regardless he will always be #3.

@@KonohazFinest Most likely Zoro vs King and Sanji vs Queen won't be as dragged out as you think. Most of the time Zoro has a slightly harder time with his opponent than Sanji but still has an easier time than Luffy. Then Sanji has a mid diff with his opponent. Morj brought it up in a previous video. A great example of this dynamic is Zoro and Sanji vs Kaku and Jabra when you compare it to Luffy vs Lucci. Lucci was twice as strong as Jabra and Kaku but Sanji and Zoro had way easier wins than Luffy. Zoro and Sanji struggled at first then broke out their new moves and won immediately. They were still able to run around easily. Sanji still went on to open the Gates of Justice. They still fought marines. Luffy finished Lucci and couldn't move afterward. We know Lucci was much stronger than the opponents Zoro and Sanji faced but have no idea how much stronger Lucci was than Zoro and Sanji. Another great example of the ambiguity of the gap between Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji is Wano. Zoro performed very well on the rooftop when he was fighting the Yonko alongside the other supernova. Everyone thought that Zoro was undoubtedly above first commanders but now his opponent is a first commander. Everyone thought Sanji was weak because of Whole Cake and because even though he didn't lose any fights while he was on Wano mainland, he didn't finish them either. Sanji was dominating Page One but since he didn't finish him, people thought he would fight a tobbi roppo member in the raid on Onigashima. Now Sanji has clashed with King, been shown to be winning in any exchange he's had with Queen, and held off King and Queen for a period of time. He's also being set up to get a power up. Zoro is also being set up to get a power up. By the end of the Wano arc we'll have no idea how close they are to Luffy. It's also important to remember that while Luffy will be the main force to take out Kaido, he's had a ton of help and he may not be exactly equal to Kaido either. The gap between Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji seem to vary from small to large. Right now I'd say the gaps are small.

I always imagine it like a graph, and the players Luffy, Zoro and Sanji have variance to their "power". If Luffy is a 100 at average, his tops is 120 and 80 his minimum. Zoro's average is like 85, his top is 100 and his minimum 60 and lastly Sanji, his average is like 70, his top is 85 and his minimum 55. Don't take the numbers seriously, I just wanted to point out that Zoro and Sanji can be equals while Zoro and Luffy can also be equals, depending on the context. If Oda wants to portray it one way, there is a way todo it and if he wants to do it the other way round, also fine,since there are no set in stone power levels like people love to assume. I think it is very clearly pointed out that if you compare the best potential those 3 have, you get a clear hierarchy with Luffy>Zoro>Sanji, however that doesnt mean that one of the lower characters cannot outshine or equal the ones above in certain fights, moments, scenes etc.

And within those 5, there is the monster trio, seeing as Zoro shares his affinity for combat, that would explain why Zoro is constantly shown as comparable to Luffy.

As far as new crew mates being perceived as stronger than Sanji goes it actually goes back even further than Franky. As someone who was reading the Manga as far back as Alabasta people thought the same thing about Robin. It really is ridiculous that people still think someone will ever supplant him, ITS NOT HAPPENING PEOPLE.

The thing about Yamato that so many people aren’t considering is that the Monster Trio isn’t just a power level. It’s a dynamic. It’s not a matter of strength but also a matter of character. Even if Jinbe and Yamato are powerful enough that they *could* supplant or rival Monster Trio members, that doesn’t fundamentally change that the Monster Trio will always be Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji.

I think it's important to know that among the East Blue 5 there are multiple trios and character dynamics: Luffy-Zoro-Nami: The main trio, the characters that tend to get the most focus overall and the initial 3 crew mates. Luffy-Zoro-Usopp: A dynamic where they act dumb or silly and annoy Sanji or Nami. Luffy-Zoro-Sanji: The Monster Trio. Luffy-Nami-Usopp: Usually made for jokes about Luffy being reckless and Nami and Usopp being scared. Luffy-Nami-Sanji: Again usually used for jokes where Luffy is being silly or dumb and Sanji and Nami get annoyed at him. Luffy-Usopp-Sanji: Way more earlier on, but they were the pervert trio in places like Alabasta. The biggest addition has been mostly Chopper to add someone to cower along with Nami and Usopp.

The fact that this argument is such a heated thing in the One Piece fandom (to which I'm very new) is so interesting to me, bc I've never been in a fandom (or maybe certain subsections of a fandom) that placed so much importance on who was the strongest before! Maybe it's bc I tend to favor characters who unambiguously AREN'T the strongest in their story, but strength has never been a factor for me when deciding which characters I like best. Sanji is my favorite of these 3 and it doesn't really matter to me how he stacks up against Zoro bc what I love about him is his skill as a cook and his kindness! I think it's entirely accurate to say Sanji doesn't always get to show off in fights bc that's not his primary role in the crew and being a strong fighter isn't directly related to his ultimate goal. For Zoro, being the strongest is the whole point (world's strongest swordsman), for Sanji being strong is a means to an end (can't find the All Blue if you're not strong enough to survive the journey!)

I totally agree with the video, the dynamic changes swiftly from being both sanji and zoro standing side by side and helping out luffy, and luffy and zoro standing out compared to sanji and the rest of the strawhats. I think there is a reason to it, and that is Sanji is first and foremost a chef before anything else, so his mentality and his motto is really different than the other two, like "i'm gonna do whatever it takes to defend you, and when the time comes i will put my life on the line to defend you guys". Luffy and Zoro, besides that, they want to prove that they are respectively the strongest pirate and strongest swordsman. Therefore, the two are more battle oriented than Sanji. But, when it comes to defending the honour and lives of Luffy and the rest of the crew, Sanji and Zoro are the ones stepping up to the plate.

Since Wano is the most recent arc our perceptions are a little bit bias toward Zoro, but we need to remember that almost all of the Whole Cake arc was about Sanji. Both Sanji and Zoro got their chance to shine in their element. They were both depicted as being either on or near Luffy's level. The important thing is each Strawhat is able to be a force alone but together the group is unstoppable.

Yeah there is Morj is high. Saying there isn’t an answer is like saying Yonko aren’t significantly more powerful than their crew. The gap between all 3 of them was small early on but it slowly widened as the series progressed. Just look at their bounties. First Luffy wasn’t even double Zoro then he was more than double, now he’s more than 3x as high. Lucci was almost twice as strong as Kaku/Jabra which is how I’ve been treating Luffy which has been accurate portrayal. Zoro and Sanji have been fighting irrelevant people while Luffy has had to take down people like Doflamingo, Cracker, Katakuri. Zoro looked ok against Fuji since Fuji doesn’t have a cheap ability like Doflamingo but it was obvious he’d get destroyed if the fight continued with Fuji being serious. Doflamingo broke out of Aokiji’s ice casually and wasn’t afraid of him or Fuji yet shits his pants when he hears Kaido’s name. Fuji couldn’t come close to one shotting base Luffy vs Kaido one shotting Gear 4. Yonko>>>Fleet Admiral>Commander=Admiral. Zoro has also said he expects Luffy to be significantly stronger than him or he won’t be satisfied. After this arc ends Luffy will be strong enough to solo his crew just like the Yonko can do to their crew. Even Roger vs Rayleigh shows this because Roger ran through Oden easily who was the same level as Rayleigh/Scopper. The only reason Zoro gets paired with Luffy is bc he’s his right hand. There’s never any portrayal that they’re equal in strength since Enies Lobby

That is a great analysis, as always. And I think that what add more to it, is the fact that its never clear if Sanji is not depicted in the big moments just because he cant, or if it is because of some other random reason. We saw that right now in Wano. Oda created a full situation to prevent Sanji to go to the rooftop, which raises the question: How well Sanji would have gone there? He created a similar situation in TB too.
