For those not catching the jokes, the avatar is from a show called One Piece; the character is Nami (I think, the last time I saw the show was something like 2005).

I have seen all 447 eps(might be more or less by a couple I cant quite remember right now) so far......

Nami is a young, somewhat tall girl with short, orange hair and a slim build. Many people consider her to be very good looking.[5] She has a blue tattoo (black in the manga[6]) on her left shoulder which represents mikan and pinwheels (a homage to Bellemere and Genzo, respectively), where she used to have a tattoo for being a member of Arlong's Crew. Near the beginning of the series, Nami wears a variety of clothing in the series but her most longest lasting is her white and blue striped shirt, an orange skirt and high-heeled sandals. She retains this look until the Arlong Park arc, afterward she is seen wearing a different outfit for each arc. Nami wore thick, low cut leather boots and a simple blouse. However, during the Arlong Park arc and thereafter, Nami wore strappy, heeled sandals and more revealing outfits (With the tattoo no longer being a secret). She seemed to have abandoned the sandals for high-heeled boots as of Chapter 435. She usually pairs her tops with skirts with rings on them. Her overall physique matured suddenly (though this is, most likely, a simple change in style of artwork). Her fashion frequently changes as well as her hair style. Many of her shirts feature four-letter words, such as "MODE," "GOLD" or "EVIL," similar to a shirt that Bellemere once wore that had "MACE" on it.

In SBS Volume 6, Oda said, according to Sanji, her measurements were 86-57-86cm = 34-22-34". The author has also replied to a fan's question saying that right now Nami's measurements are as follows:

Height: 169 cm = 5'6½"
Measurements (B-W-H): 95-55-85 cm = 37-21-33"
He later also specified in an SBS that Nami's under bust size is 65 cm, making her an I-cup in Japan, or an F-cup in the US. However, her breasts seem to grow into and then "reset" throughout the arcs (this is much more obvious in the manga and in one of the movies).[7] Oda has also said that Nami resembles a cat, that the color orange represents her, and she smells of mikan and money.

Haha, that's really funny. I'm guessing it was written by a man?

Also, I thought breast cup sizes were breast measurement (in inches) - under breast measurement (in inches), converted to letters. So 30 inches under breast and 35 inches on widest area would be E cup in the UK?

Along with Nico Robin, Nami is one of the smartest of the Straw Hats and the third smartest character in East Blue according to Oda, the first being Benn Beckman of the Red-Haired pirates and the 2nd being Captain Kuro[10]. At the beginning of the series, Nami despised all pirates. She viewed them as nothing but bad people after losing someone close to her, only changing her mind after she met Luffy and Zoro. Before her view changed on pirates, she was perfectly fine with giving Luffy up captive to Buggy, as she could not bring herself to stoop to their level. She also did not believe in Devil Fruits as any more than myths until she saw Buggy's Bara Bara no Mi in action.


Nami's money eyes.Nami is greedy and will do anything for money, accepting any challenge that comes along. Her love of money stems from her childhood, where she lived a poor life and was often upset at having little wealth despite the love of her adopted mother. While she will send in Luffy, Zoro and the rest of the crew to meet the demand, the one thing she will not do is sell out a friend; no matter what the sum. She takes control of the amount of money the crew spends, ever aware of the crews spending habits (such as Luffy's desire to spend all they have on meat) and tries her hardest to avoid it getting spent all at once. To this end, she is in complete horror whenever the rest of the crew wastes money or passes up an opportunity to get it. She is loyal to her money, but no matter how much she denies it, her loyalty to her friends comes first as seen when she decided to give up her agreed 1,000,000, 000 deal with Igaram for protecting Vivi for Vivi's sake after Baroque Works was beaten.

Nami is very bossy and is usually ordering everyone around, including Luffy, despite not even being the captain herself. Nami's main concern when she is in trouble is herself first and usually has other members do her fighting, resulting in her fighting in fewer fights. She is a coward, though not on the same level as Usopp, her cowardice has more to do with survival. She is aware of dangers they face every day and has a much better understanding of the world and its more dangerous individuals(ex. the Shichibukai) than most of her crew, though lacks Robin's knowledge on some of its other powerful figures (ex. the marine Admirals). She can be devilish at times and won't think twice about ditching the others to save her own life.[11] She has been known to stand her ground against anyone hurting her friends, abandoning her otherwise normal routine of trying to stay out of harm's way.[12][13][14][15] The best example came from her survival of Enel's game which left her as the only fighter standing besides him, she agreed to board his ship and go to his promised land out of fear after seeing all the strong fighters loose the game, but later after hearing his plans that would forsaken the sky island soon turns on him.

However, in return for her lesser sympathetic personality traits, she is also one of the more compassionate crew members who is fast to show sympathy when hearing sad things about other people, and as she showed during the incident with Hatchan, she is willing to forgive even people who have hurt her for many years. She is easily one of the Straw Hat's most emotional members, she cries easily and she shows much understanding of and insight into feelings. This often makes her good to comfort her friends (though she has also done the opposite to comically effect), but she is rather bad maker of decisions when it comes to objective choices; as shown during the crew's discussion in chapter 438 about whether Usopp should return or not, she insisted subjectively that Usopp should return, however Zoro made her look at the objective sites of the matter and stand by Luffy's decision.

Nami also has an obsession with fashion, as she is never seen wearing the same clothes. This was not present in the early chapters and started after the Captain Kuro arc.[16] When Nami goes shopping, she sometimes goes to exquisite boutiques and tries on stuff, just to leave stating that she is searching for something more casual. She doesn't seem to have much modesty as she sometimes wears rather skimpy clothing and allows people to take photos of her in a swimsuit or completely naked (as long as they pay).
