One Piece Girls “Deformed & Grotesque”

With the girls of One Piece somehow dominating a ranking of the anime girls with the most comely proportions, One Piece detractors cannot help but voice concerns about the direction their design appears to be taking – specifically, how their waists gradually shrunk to spindles as the manga progressed, even as their breasts ballooned to basketball size.
Above, the top row shows Nami’s development from the start of the manga on the left to the more recent volumes.
For those wondering, Nami’s supposed measurements are 169cm – B95-W55-H85 (I Cup).
For reference, an actual human (or Yui Ichikawa at any rate) with these waist/hip measurements:

I'd still get on any of the above.
True dat bro
granpa:"If they have boobs, whats the problem?"
they could have a penis anyway ;)
I see what u did thar
Dad:"If she still don't have boobs, whats the problem?"
one pieces style has always been a lil bit extreme lol but thats what makes it so awesome
It's a trap!!! Ivankov's picture is actually among the examples shown!!!
No really do the persons that actually support this read the manga? Cause what the girls lack on proportions gain in personality!!
I think you're getting this a bit wrong...
Ideal body proportions does not include personality.
And it's not like they lack the proportions, huge titties and hips and more or less an hourglass in between.
Ivankov could turn you into a girl then have the most awkward lesbian sex where both parties know that they are actually a man.
You know, like a lesbian cybersex but IRL.
Nami is still too fat

Nice SnO reference there, bro.
One Piece looked quite ok in the beginning, but it certainly is turning into a freak show.
yes , parade of wierd people and creature...
Usopp's nose... just that
One Piece NEVER seemed a good anime, just a bunch of idiots wanting too be... what?... The king of pirates?
OH, COME ON, GO TO HELL!!!!!
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO. I've seen enough AMV Hell to say I do not, I DO NOT, whant to to watch that crap.
Well beyond all that....damn Yui is hot..
The truth was spoken, One Piece was never proportionally correct and I don't think it never was meant to.
You can't stop evolution! =D
such a weeboo site, you think since the japanese looooove OP so would the people on here XD
haterz gonna hate
OP is too good for these haterz~
Nah. This weeaboo site obviously took into consideration the opinion of the average speak-for-the-public retarded fag.
..Or not.
haterz gonna hate~
Id still let her molest me any day.
Said detractors are also angry Flatty McFlatchests
...besides, if you're looking for anatomically correct characters, why the hell are you reading one piece? There's a guy made of lightening and zombie stuffed bears FFS
Well, if people were looking for quality they wouldn't be looking at such large breasts in the first place, so I guess they don't really mind if a few other things are slightly 'off' as well.
Everything about One Piece is "off", in more than one way.
It's probably why I keep reading it after all these years tho ^^
First of all, the designs have changed so much, you gotta wonder WHICH designs they have in mind. I loved certain Nami designs while thought others were grotesque.
But I think there's a bit of psychology in this too, because the One Piece females are actually cool characters and not actually overly sexualized, ironically. The body proportions are exaggerated and eeeeveryone knows it because of the style of the world and story. In fact it's one of the few styles where doujinshi actually make them MORE normally proportioned and they look sexy and attractive in those situations. In the story, you kind of don't WANT to think of them that way, at least I don't. I find Nami sexy as a character, as well as just entertaining and generally fun. It firmly made me want Nami to be Sanji's Mellorin, and thus I have no place to think of her as anything else :D
Almost none of the characters in the series are even remotely proportioned right, that's not limited to the girls.
Look at Iva, the original Elvida, ANYONE, seriously.
Just move on to Negima. It's got all shapes, all sizes in bodies, high quality stuff in the manga and in doujinshi. It's got a few lolis and DFC to boot.
I got downvoted because I said I like their character and that's the reason the results are skewed? Wow, you guys really are the internet.
Anon 15:20, don`t take it too seriously if stupid ppl have clicked some minus for your reply.
I think your comment is THE BEST and most sensible about OP girls` proportions in recent 2 articles about this issue.
The rage come from the fact that OP girls dominating the "perfectly proportioned" girl ranking, which basically as insulting as saying all those anorexic and bulimic catwalk models as the perfect girls in our 3D world.
And besides, all the good stuff on the OP girls are all fanarts.. the original design are as loathsome as it is.. even for a big boob lover such as I am.
I agree. They are too thin and the breast size makes no sense. A really person like that would have epic back problems or eventually fall forward over.
Women have historically been known to take it to this extent, actually. Look at corsets.
Verily. *love those things*
Even the most extreme Victorian corsets weren't as ridiculous as some of the proportions here, which are anatomically impossible.
Indeed. Your internal organs would literally be crushed to death if you had these proportions.
It's almost as bad as the ridiculously muscled men in 90s Western comics...
So why should it be at the detraction of One Piece for the results of a survey independent of it?
YES! Because anorexix and bulemic girls have tits the size of pumpkins. OF COURSE IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW! I just wanna point out that your arguement falls flat on its face considering that sanji brings nami and robin stuff to eat virtually all the time during the manga when they are on the ship?
this anon = anon 14:42
You either fail at reading comprehension or you simply ... failboy defending. orz.
I simply said that OP girls hogging the slot in the "perfectly proportion" ranking is AS INSULTING as those 3D catwalk model being taut as the perfect girl (in term of physical appearance)never once i said those 3D bulimic models have hueg tits.
Learn to read.
For all that worth it, for me from that list, I would say Sheryl, Mio, Misato and Aya prolly deserved to be in there.. I cannot say much about other unknown girls to me. I would include Haruna from To Love Ru as well for my list.
That anon speaks the truth. The OP girls are far from perfectly proportioned. Really far.
No shit? My point was, his simile was off. I mean seriously. He clearly didn't put that much thought into it. Theres no friggin actual way to tell what would be the best porportioned 2d girl, because, THEY ARE 2 FUCKING D.
And actually the way you worded it, you were comparing the one piece girls, to bulimic people. So yes, you did infer with what you said, that they were bulimic.
Well Nami certainly is a double D, your right on that one.
lonesnipa, believe it or not it IS possible to draw a 2D girl with realistic proportions. hell, look at nami in those first couple of pictures. she looks fine there, it's only when they start inflating her tits and cinching her waist to pinky-finger widths that calling her "perfectly proportioned" gets really goddamn ridiculous. the profile of a girl's curves, 2D or 3D, should resemble a gently sloping hill, not the rocky fucking mountains.
They just won because they're popular, like Mio. Though Mio is a bit more realistic than these girls. You also have to think about who was polled. If it was adolescent boys, they'll probably pick the girls they're most familiar with.
Well one thing that differs anorexic 3D girls from 2D girls in OP is they don't have their rib cage bones sticking out.
It's weird you guys don't like the One Piece girls but Code Geass girls have a large popularity whom have almost the same proportions.
Seriously screw all these flat chest lovers
Flat chests are better, and that is a fact. They don't get affected by gravity and time.
Nami is a growing girl. Her breasts growing over time is realistic. Its not like American cartoons where the character never change even though the show has been on for 20 years.
Agree! tottaly! love big boobs!
Breasts growing is realistic, to a certain extent. Waists shrinking to half the diameter of a single thigh is not, though.
To state some numbers, the human waist ideally should be about 2/3 of the chest and hip area. Half the size is extreme, but still fine for drawings.
OP waists are maybe 1/8, if at all. That's not realistic, that's freaky.
freaky is a compliment on onepiece. in a world of fantasy we don't need stupid reality.
they also though that silicon inplants for boob enlargements were freaky!!, now there is no paradise without boobs (or a really big ass)
Don't forget Pokemon
More Hancock plz. =)
Will Smith is perfectly proportioned? <.<
i see what you did there
For a man? Yes.
It looks like a few people did not see what I did there, or they have issues.
*pats and comforts Aneko*
There, there.
Many readers here haven't ventured further than 2D, so go easy on the RL references, k? =)
..but they never grow even a single layer of fat on the tummy.. Inoue Orihime's case, I guess?
doraemon? about how long, 20 years? and still 6th grade. growing or not its just a matter of how they make the story.
but then again, its a MANGA! everything (HAS TO) doesnt make any sense, any manga that is based on any kind of sense is not interesting... since reality is BORING, thats why we imagine things, thats why they make manga, anime, etc etc etc
I was going to say that. Oda himself answered that to a reader asked him about the increasing size of Nami's breath. She was only 15 at the beginning of the adventure...
I thought she was 18 when it started. Did I miss something?
