-Not really weird but Sanji is the only SH who doesn't use a weapon, DF or special ability(Diable Janbe isn't special as its willpower in physical form like Asura).

-Sanji is the only SH who never lost someone close to him in a flashback

-Sanji is the only SH who Zoro never approved of. Sure he didn't approve of Robin when she first joined, but he eventually approved in Water 7 and guess what? She had a very dark and important backstory. Sanji's backstory is very likely to be dark and important as well.

Sure but since when were games canon anyway.

I thought he lost his family in the boat wreck but I can't remember.

He already has a backstory

You mean those male chefs who died in a storm that left Sanji and Zeff stranded? Not his family and Sanji said he is from North Blue but his backstory takes place in East Blue.

Don't get what you mean with the first sentence.

True in banking on Sanji to be on noble side like doffy or sabo (how he fights etc gives off intelligence and I feel like the novels at least those who fights .. ) lol (they r all blonde lol)

I always figured that his family was on that boat too, but I guess they didn't have to be.

It was a reference to shanks red lightning. I'm just saying that it isn't canon and comparing it to sanjis ability is weird. Unless there is something that made this canon which I have never seen. Anyways diable jambe came from spinning super fast so isn't it friction related.

Oh yeah yeah true true true your right.

Sanji can use Diable Janbe at anytime now and Oda said Sanji doesn't get burned because his SPIRIT burns hotter.

Of course Zoro has approved of Sanji. It's more like a love-hate relationship than anything. While they tend to fight and argue, it's obvious they respect each other. Also, about special abilities and whatnot; Sanji knows Soru.

There's no reason for Oda to give Sanji's past any more depth. To develop the story? Sanji's character doesn't need to become more complex for that to happen.

No he hasn't. Zoro never invited him like did Usopp, have a private chat with him about being a SH like with Brooke etc.. Sanji joined when Zoro was unconscious.

Since Sanji's backstory has the least depth and that it takes place in East Blue when Sanji said he is from North Blue, there is more to Sanji's past.

I really hope to see more about Sanji in general in the future.
There is for sure something about him and Oda wouldn't have added this if there is no meaning behind it.

Just because Zoro was unconscious at the time, doesn't mean he disapproves of Sanji. They act just like siblings would. There's a brotherly trust and care between them they would never admit to, is all. You need to pay more attention to their relationship if you haven't gotten that figured out yet.

In my humble opinion, Zoro's past is the one with least depth to it. He made a promise with his childhood friend, also noted to be his rival. His friend dies. Zoro is given his friend's sword and swears he'll keep the promise they made. There's nothing more to his past than that. The anime added in some parts - but in the manga, that's all. It doesn't help that his past's only seven pages long.

Don't cross over to subtle insults by saying I don't pay attention to the series and you keep dodging my point. Despite how they act, Zoro never outwardly approved of Sanji like Zoro did the other SHs. Zoro had a say in every SHs recruitment and/or postion in the crew except for Sanji. Why is that so hard to comprehend?

To add to your point , I can not remember even once that Zoro called Sanji by his name , or vice versa !! I can be wrong tho !

This is terrible. .-. I might have it wrong, but wasn't Sanji just a child when he became Zeff's student or w/e. Most if not all of his important past was with the Restaurant crew.

On the other hand, I hope you're right. I'd like there to be more about Sanji that we've yet seen.
