$$$$$ Mercenary! $$$$$


(why soccer player?)

[Mae]

(why not?)

[Consuming Light]

( true )

[Nolech]

;D Ha tied the score. Something crossed my mind, is this the One-piece pirates vs the Naruto ninjas? If so I would vote pirates. but Spammy failed to clarify that . So since the poll is normal pirates vs normal ninjas, it should be painfully obvious that ninjas are better, hands down.
If we're making up hidden vote I would like to say that mages are the coolest people in the world. with out them who would be around to cast flare when you most need it?

[fidelis]

This is pirates over ninjas.

Of course one piece is a bunch of pirates, and naruto is a bunch of wussie - sorry, ninjas.

: )

[Consuming Light]

Uhhhh no. Some of One peice's chracters are pirates. Luffy and his crew are treasure hunters, not pirates. Pirates were corrupt spanish sailors who wanted more money. They ravenged towns, killed inoccent poeple, and stole everything that they could. The crew was not nice to each other, they stole from there mates, and killed them sometimes. Luffy's crew is nice, kind, helpful to other poeple, and they dont kill. They are treasure hunters not pirates sorry. I mean nothing personal to one piece fans, i think it is an awsome manga, i merely think the Luffy and his crew are not pirates.

As for Naruto and his gang. I dont think they are real ninjas. They are more like wana-be ninjas, meets draon ball z, meets magic. Sorry to any naruto fans, i dont really care for this manga and if you disagree with me please tell me so.

Mercanary beats all!

[fidelis]

yeah, not to make myself seem any more mean than I do, and I'm not actually playing around this time, but you're completely wrong.



Tell me, if Luffy wasn't a pirate, then how in the world could he become the pirate king?

. . . ?

[Consuming Light]

I stand corrected.
Though you didnt acutally say this, i thought about it and i guess there are different types of pirates in manga. You cant really put a deffintion of "pirate" in a fantasy comic.

But i do stand by my deffintion of a pirate in the real world.

I never thought you were mean, you just act over the top. I myself dont want to seem like a jerk face

(do you disagree with my naruto deffintion? That may seem over the top, but many agree with me on it.)

[Aura]

come on! we all know ninja's are awesomeful!!! and so sonni's sake.....a pirate-ninja-jedi master-soccer player would be cool too!

and i disagree slayer! but honestly i don't really care to argue about it bcuz it's kind of pointless to argue over something like that. we all have our OWN oppinions and thoughts.

I mean, in manga world, one piece = pirates, naruto = ninjas and that's all there really is to it. I think they are both gross exaggerations on their real world counterparts, but they still are a fantasy representation of a pirate or a ninja.

One Piece is just my favorite piece of fiction, so I will always defend it.

(though really, pirates > ninjas, there's no real contest)

[Consuming Light]

Aprilsl, we are not arguing, it more of a stating of opinions. Also notice no one is getting mad.

i have no problem with you defending, or telling me you disargee with me on the subject of One Piece. Luffy is not a pirate in my opinion, though i cant stick me personal meaning of a pirate in a fantasy book.

i must disagree with the pirates being better than ninjas. Pirates are mostly, not all but mostly, skilled in ship to ship fighting. Ninjas of the other hand cover all areas. Land, Water, Sky, all these and more. Plus they, in my opion, have more skill than pirates. They can use any weapon, they can be stealthy, but they can also assualt any number of men. They are not limited to fighting with weapons, they are one of the most skilled hand-to-hand fighters ever, and they dont use stuff like enchanted fruit. (except naruto, they be cheap with magic and all)

(by the way One Piece is awsome, im meerly defending nijas.)

[Reliquiae]

Wow... we're actually having this argument. Lol

[Mae]

yeah, it is kinda hard to believe, but at the same time... and for realz, if you read one piece, almost ALL of the fighting is done on land. and sam is right, in ALL cases, pirates > ninjas. i mean, we have han solo, the straw hat crew, and jack sparrow and company on our side. totally out weighs ninjas. BOOH NINJAS!!!!!!! oh! and thanks for the correction KISA!!!! ninjas aren't all that awesomeful to me.

Ninjas can use any weapon? Not on your life, buddy. Ninjas are stuck with ninja specific weapons, and because of "code" and "ethics", a ninja wouldn't be caught dead with anything that isn't ninja specific. A pirate on the other hand, who doesn't have a code except his own morals, can do whatever the heck he wants at any time.

And how can a ninja cover ANYTHING but land? What ninjas cover water? None. Sky? What, are there flying ninjas all the sudden?

A ninja is bound to what their feet can walk on and what they can hide behind.

Now a pirate is limitless. You have sky pirates, space pirates, land pirates (cowboys anyone? but thats another topic all together) and your good ol' water pirates.

And Luffy is a pirate. There is no debate here. The original conception (if you read the pilot for one piece) was that Luffy wasn't really going to be a pirate, but they srapped that idea.

Luffy sails the high seas and fights the navy, doing what he wants. Luffy is a pirate. He's just a pirate with morals.

(lol i love this topic)

[Consuming Light]

wow, that got some serouis response. okay here goes...

To Lo- this is more of a fun argument, than a real one.

To Sunni- Huh!? Han Solo!?! A pirate!?! Whoa girl you are talking to a guy (who bye the way is a total geek) has read almost every Star Wars book out there, played 75% of the games, watched the movies (except the newer ones) countless times, and talked to poeple who know more about it then i do. And you say Han Solo is a pirate!......(Breaths)... okay im done. Anyway Han Solo is not a pirate, he is a smuggler/mercenary.

To man whom i started this convosation with-........................................ha........................haha
........hahaha! okay really dude, were we not just talking about how in a fantasy book there are many defintions to anything? Cuse if we did you can take your silly deffiniton of ninjas an go role in a pile of monkeys.
Seriously though, have you never seen one of those awsome ninja movies were like they run on water and they jump through they air, and use any weapon? Those are only the crazy ninjas. We aren't even talking about the ones that hide n the shadow of a fly, the fly thats right behind you by the way, and if there isnt a fly he is hiding in the shadow of the dust floating in the air. The reason he hasnt killed you yet is that your stupidity (the part were pirates beat ninjas) on this subject is so great he feels you should have about 2 days to post a post that says ninjas are better.

oh by the way, in my book a pirate with morals is no pirate at all.

( still all in all mercanary beats all )

Lol, I know, I love how heavy these conversations get.

AND HAN SOLO IS HANDS DOWN A SPACE PIRATE. Smuggler, pirate, what's the difference? They do the same thing anyways.

Ninjas are pansies. Big, crybaby, moral bound, family enfused pansies.

How about you grow up and be a real man, on the sea, with no one to talk to except the wind? Oh wait, you're too busy running on the water to really command it.

;D

[Mae]

(yes, this topic does have a certain sense of awesome level to it, especially on the pirate side)omg! how could i forget one important thing? the only ninjas that don't totally stink are donnatello, michaelangelo, leonardo, and raphael... and splinter.

and slayer, i am as much of a star wars geek as you are. you are talking to the girl who watched 5 and 6 at the same time!!!! and i am not meaning for this to become a competition.

han solo is definitely a space pirate. he's no pansy!!!
