AT THE SEARCH OF THE SOUTH BIRD

The first time they speak to each other, Zoro tells Robin he doesn’t trust her and that he’ll be watching if she tries anything. Robin just smiles. It’s not unusual that Zoro doesn’t trust Robin given that she was the right hand assassin of Corocodile, the man who tried to ruin Vivi’s country and kill the Straw Hats. What is unusual is that when the two are looking for a South Bird, not long after they reach the next island, Robin tells Zoro not to kill the insects and he listens to her. What’s odd about this is that Zoro rarely takes orders from anyone as it isn’t his style. He only listens to Luffy as he is the captain (and Nami when they are navigating).

This isn’t a moment, but it could be a hint. The only people who talk about the sky…are zoro and robin. Complement each in a good way

These three pages for me is a masterpiece… This shows that Zorobin isn’t one moment. The first thing is their team’s title : group 2. Why they are
in group who called 2? It sounds like the love who can have only 2 positions. And the weird… They were the only group, of which the team’s number was the same as the number of team mates. Coincidence? Knowing how much Oda likes to play with numbers, I think no.

The second is how he was clear to her. He didn’t trust her, but when she emphasized his weakness with a polite way… he was angry? No. He went after her, I don’t know if it was because he didn’t want to get lost or because she got his interest, but in the next panel shows, not only he followed her suggestions, but he yelled so that she to watch what he did. Really the insects could understand what he said? Or he wanted to show that he is smart and strong? It’s a requital for flirting, with a distinguishing way of shounen manga.

After Robin caught the bird, the only one who was designed separately, was Zoro. When a character designed alone in one place, is because the author wants to give attention to him. Why give this in Zoro? Maybe because Zoro need to know, this woman is strong and useful,so must trust her. But isn’t Zoro who likes strong women? Then her abilities are strong, and make him start likes this woman.
