Talk:Nico Robin

message: I personally don't think we should merge the article about Nico Robin's Attacks and Abilities with her main article due to its length, and as the story progresses, we'll probably see more of her attacks, thus augmenting the article even further. I've also noticed how other One Piece characters have seperate articles listing their attacks, so I don't see any reason why Robin's should be merged with her main article.

thread_title: Article on Attacks and Abilities

message: I've sumarized the article because it was really long and detailed every single known thing Robin has ever done, which is not nesisary. Only up to chapter 353 though, since I havn't read any further yet. Someone else can do that, or I will when I'm caught up.
:I think it needs that attention again.  Its got an aweful lot of long paragrahs.  Is there a way to shorten all this info into small paragraphs? Angel Emfrbl 17:58, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Shorten Article

message: In One Piece: Grand Battle Robin seemed to throw around a lot of pink petals to create surfaces for her to sprout arms from.  Can anyone confirm if she does this in the manga/anime?  And if so, anyone have any idea as to what kind of petals they are (cherry blossoms?)?
:No, in the manga at least, Robin does not use petals.
Then petals are an effect. she uses Hana Hana fruit powers, and Hana is flower. So sometimes when she uses or puts away the parts of her that shew grew, she has flowers come off of them.
The flowers look very much like cherry blossom petals, and are just special effects the video game put in. In the anime and manga, petals do not appear when she attacks(unless you count this one scene in an opening song). The flowers spring from the idea that Robin can sprout multiple replications of any body part on a surface, just like flowers.
:Actually from time to time they DO appear in the scene in both the manga and anime.  Just not very often.  They appear when her arms sprout or disappear.  I can prove it too with the anime... Just watch the ep where Luffy + Zoro return from being beaten up by Bellamy.  She hands up a map to the crew on board Merry and you can see the petals.  As for Manga... Check out the group bounties:

:You can clearly see at least one petal on Robin's poster. Angel Emfrbl 20:26, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Is she really 6'2"? That's freakishly tall for a female... Renegade78 06:06, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe its correct. What so freakish about a women being that tall??? Its not unheard of you know?  Angel Emfrbl 17:58, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not that Robin's freakishly tall... it's that everyone else is really short. Quite a bit shorter than they are drawn, in fact. That's pretty common in manga though, they're always messing up the character heights. So don't worry about it too much. --tjstrf 18:08, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Luffy is 5'7".  Thats about average height depending.  He is short, but not too short.  So yeah... Robin is tall compared to the rest of the crew.  Angel Emfrbl 22:24, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Fine, but we don't need to have every events leding to what happened listed.  If someone wants to know more, they can read the manga, watching the anime or look up a fan site.

message: I reverted the profile image back to its previous state, which depicts Robin in the Enies Lobby arc. Luffy, Nami, Zoro and most of the Strawhat Crew's profile images are also from this arc. For now, It's only logical that this profile image is left as it is.203.218.79.155 15:42, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Best option, the other image is badly drawn around the nose area.  Angel Emfrbl 19:06, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

text: Image:Robin_f.JPG
Can we leave this image as the photo one here... I know its not the best, but after the constant edit wars over the images, its best to declare one image is the choice for her profile and leave it at that.  If anyone changes it, wrevert to this one.  I expect this image to stay up for at least a number of weeks, I'm trying to end a war here...  Angel Emfrbl 21:29, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

text: While we're on the subject of pictures... Anyone got a better picture of her as a child.  That one of her we have here right now in her history section - it makes her look like a jellybaby.  Seriously, it does.  XD Angel Emfrbl 22:11, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Change in Seiyuu?

message: Since someone wrote it up let me just point out when Robin said :
"So long as I can see it!"
During the Jaya arc what she was actually saying was so long as she can see where the South bird is, she can grab the south bird.  Not that she needs to she the location to sprout the limbs.  Lets clarify this common misunderstanding okay?  Its been removed anyway from the page! Angel Emfrbl (talk) 16:43, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yea, that's why I removed it, seeing as how she's used techniques before without seeing what she's sprouting a limb from. Ark (talk) 17:09, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Incorrectness

message: One of the updates says it was being made to "improve the quality of One Piece articles on Wikipedia". I'll be direct. I disagree with removing the "nicknames" she initially gives to the others:
*"Kancho" (Luffy)
*"Kenshi-san" (Zoro)
*"Kokaishi-san" (Nami)
*"Nagahana-kun" (Usopp)
*"Kokku-san" (Sanji)
*"Issha-san" (Chopper)
This is one of her unique quirks (in comparison to the other characters), along with the fact that she doesn't (over)react with exaggerated emotion like the others do. I think these should be restored because they describe a unique aspect to this character: something I think is both relevant and notable for an encyclopedia article. I think it's a bad idea for articles to be too general. Brittany Ka (talk) 20:58, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: She doesn't use them anymore though... So why bother with them.  Angel Emfrbl (talk) 21:33, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: For one thing, the U.S. hasn't gotten that far in the manga or anime yet. Also, from a historical perspective (in regards to One Piece), she did use them at one time. It's important for an encyclopedia article to also have historical context. To put it simply, it should be mentioned that she called them by those names during the early days of being with them, but now she actually calls them by name. It's important to include as much relevant history about a character as possible, especially when it concerns certain quirks for a character as I previously mentioned (whether those quirks are past or present). Brittany Ka (talk) 17:29, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: In an encyclopedic context Robin has no history, she's a fictional character. Ark (talk) 20:46, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Then does that mean we should remove the "About Robin" section, then? Many (though admittedly not all) fictional characters have a backstory (and thus, a history) as created by the writers who work on a show or comic, which includes the mannerisms people have which are part of their personalities. Robin had certain mannerisms at some point, even though they have changed over time, and I'm assuming that she still isn't prone to the aforementioned exaggerated outbursts of emotion. Are you saying all that is irrelevant for an encyclopedia article? Personally, I don't think so. How about this. Why don't we just say that Robin initially kept to herself, but now interacts with crew more than she once did. Is that fair enough? Brittany Ka (talk) 22:01, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: All you need to know about the characters is perhaps a small backgrounding, what they can do, notes supplied by the creatator, all this build a rough description of who they are so the reader knows who they are.  That is all  you need to know.  Really, all you should be able to do when you get to this page is go, "Oh look, Nico Robin, she is from X show and is with X group".  Its an insight as to what something is, not a essay about their role in the story.  If you want to know more, look up the wikia or watch the show... Thats how wikipedia works.

thread_title:  Robin's Nicknames 

message: Following facts have been removed from the article by more than one editor. And have repeatedly been put back by another:
*Series creator Eiichiro Oda has stated that Nico Robin is represented by the color purple and she smells of flowers. SBS questions: One Piece Manga - Vol.40 - Chapter 380, Fan question: What colors represent the crew. What do each of the Straw Hat Crew smell like ((JP)  ) Her favorite foods are sandwiches, cakes that are not too sweet, and things that go well with coffee. SBS questions: One Piece Manga - Vol.45 Chapter 439, Fan Question: Luffy's favorite food is meat. What about everyone else on the crew? ((JP)  )
	
*Another one of Robin's unique characteristic is the way she calls her fellow crew members by their own distinct characteristics. Zoro as Mr. Swordsman, Nami as Miss Navigator, Usopp as Mr. Long Nose, and so forth.
I say it's fancruft and should be removed. Other oppinions?
Yeah, it is fancruft to a degree. A person who doesn't know about One Piece wouldn't care that much about it. Uglyguy2006 (talk) 15:16, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Trivia 

message: I've edited the so-called "fact" that in the manga of One Piece, and the games One Piece: Unlimited Adventure and One Piece: Unlimited Cruise, Nico Robin's eye color is brown where only in the manga it is blue. But I've read the manga as well as seen both games in question, and guess what: Robin's eye color is still blue! I honestly don't know who wrote this but it seems to be a serious lack of evidence for this editing. Uglyguy2006 (talk) 15:16, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
