Luffy always says they need a Musician when discussing who they need in their crew next. With brook, they have a Musician, thereby completing the crew.

There, that discussion is over. Carrot isn't joining, Caesar isn't joining, Momonosuke isn't joining, Pudding isn't joining. No one is joining. The End.

This probably not a popular opinion but I think even if no one joins after jinbei, It would be fine imo. The author will have less protagonists to think about and thus better development for each, so basically quality characters over just numbers.(even though it seems to be going quite slow with this much only)

Ussop still holds his place as the most developed strawhat, it would be nice if the strawhats were equally as developed as him tbh.

The horse doesn't count and if you look at Straw Hat animals cover series you see that there's actually 9 people not included but every single time vivi is included
What? I don't knwo what you are trying to say. Vivi hasn't even been in a color page for 600+ chapters. After Alabasta, she was gone.

I didn't say color page I said cover story and obviously they'll be a man short but 8 vs 9 isn't that big of a difference
1. Luffy said he wants to recruit at least 10 people so there are atleast 2 more SHs guaranteed.

2. Vivi already said that she belongs to her country so why would see leave now that father is ill?

3-BB recruits members on screen just like Luffy so BB will have more than 10 key members. Its highly likely that it will 13 vs 13.

There is BB and 10 commanders, that's eleven total. There are only 9 SHs.

1. Don't count the horse. That's stupid. So BB has 9 commanders and A horse.
2.And i didn't count vivi as an actual member all I said is she is an honorary strawhat and has been represented in the cover stories that follow ALL the straw hats so technically there are 10 strawhats and 10 BB pirates, if you don't count the horse.
3. I also believe that the strawhats will increase in numbers all I am saying is that the BB pirates numbers and theirs are already comparable so it doesn't matter if they going to fight the BB pirates
4. No one said it would be 1v1 matchups. It can be a crew wide brawl the numbers don't have to match in a fight.

Wtf are you talking about? We never said that the horse was one of the 10 commanders. You need to learn what technically means.

1-Who the hell counts the horse??? Never heard anyone say that before....
2-Vivi isn't a SH.....she wasn't in no SH cover stories. Also, Vivi can't even stop Usopp. Usopp will always be the weakest according to Oda.
3 & 4- BB pirates directly parallel the SHs. You say it doesn't have to be 1v1 but at the same time it can.

Needing something and then achieving it does not mean that one can no longer receive anything else that isn't "needed" exactly after that.

So "that discussion" isn't "over" at all.. fans will continue to discuss, think, and theorize on who new StrawHats can be.
Someone else may join. To be continued...

BB has 9commander +1former admiral(Aokoji) that means they got 11guys
SH got 9guys in their crew. High chance atleast 1more guy will join SH which will be either Jinbei,CC or carrot

Luffy said he wanted 10 members before going to the Grand Line which he did with less so that statement's not really much of a guarantee that we'll get a total of 10. The BB Pirate angle is a more reasonable possibility for more crew mates.

As for the amounts you all keep bickering over, if Chopper counts then the horse can count too. Without the horse BB has 9 people and Kuzan that's 11, If we take out animals SH's have 8. That's a 3-man disadvantage without animals. Even with Chopper they're still down 2 men. Say Kuzan's not loyal still down 1 man. Room for 1 SH at least.

I can't beleive people actually consider Stronger(Doc Q's horse that is always with him) as a separate crew member.....
To be fair to those people though none of us question Chopper(though the WG kind of does) as SH. When we actually get to see a real BB Pirate fight who's to say Stronger won't be in the mix, BB doesn't take weaklings that should imply he's not a typical horse. I wouldn't count him as a commander though since he's always with Q.

BB has 10 commanders. That means someone joined them during the TS.
