Eiichiro Oda's One Piece manga debuted in 1997 and has been a staple of Shonen Jump ever since. Producing over 1000 chapters and 100 volumes, the pirate-themed story is nothing short of a cultural phenomenon, and it is already cemented as one of the all-time greats. The franchise is so successful that Netflix launched a live-action adaptation in 2023, and the series managed to defy expectations and garner a largely positive reception. One Piece has also produced plenty of games and, obviously, a long-running anime. Debuting in 1999, Toei's series is well-regarded, even if it is not held in as high esteem as Oda's source material.

While not lacking in memorable fights, gorgeous art, expansive world-building, or intense drama, One Piece's success can predominantly be credited to its lovable characters. An adventure story lives and dies on the strength of its heroes, and the Straw Hat pirates are iconic for a reason. People have been watching Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Nami, Usopp, Chopper, Robin, Franky, Brook, and Jinbe for decades, to the point that these characters now feel like family. Consequently, fans might find themselves yearning to know more about these figures. How old are One Piece's characters? How tall is Luffy?

Updated March 23, 2024: One Piece is still as popular as ever, and the Straw Hats are pop-culture icons. However, the manga's end is gradually approaching, meaning that Luffy, Zoro, Nami, and the crew's days are numbered.

The Straw Hats celebrating in One Piece

At this point in One Piece, it seems unlikely that the Straw Hats will welcome a new member into the crew, although there is always a chance that Eiichiro Oda will surprise readers. Still, the current lineup could very well be the final one; therefore, for easy access, the Straw Hats' personal information has been included in the following table.

For the characters' ages and heights, both the pre and post-timeskip information are provided. The first bullet point covers the former while the second point relates to the latter. Also, the height's feet and inches data have been rounded up. Also, click on a character's name to go directly to their section.

Luffy

Captain

  • Debut Episode: I’m Luffy! The Man Who’s Gonna Be King of the Pirates! (Episode 1)
  • Devil Fruit: Gomu Gomu no Mi/Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika
  • Current Bounty: 3 Billion Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Mayumi Tanaka
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Colleen Clinkenbeard

Monkey D. Luffy was born on May 5, which is Children's Day in Japan. Children's Day takes place during Golden Week, and kids get a short vacation from school and are celebrated for their personalities and happiness. It reflects Luffy's personality perfectly since he's the most happy-go-lucky guy in One Piece.

One Piece: Luffy's 10 Best Gear Third Techniques, Ranked
Gear Third was Luffy's ultimate form for a long time. These techniques have helped him and the Straw Hats out of some tough situations.

As the captain of the Straw Hats, Luffy is the glue that keeps everyone together. His drive for adventure and willingness to help those who are prepared to ask for it makes Luffy an enigmatic figure that naturally attracts other pirates (or bounty hunters) to him. As the default protagonist, Luffy drives One Piece forward, being the light that attracts all the Straw Hats and the glue that keeps them together. He is charismatic, unflinching, brave, and deceptively smart. However, Luffy can also be an idiot.

Zoro

First Mate

  • Debut Episode: I’m Luffy! The Man Who’s Gonna Be King of the Pirates! (Episode 1)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: 1,111 Billion Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Kazuya Nakai
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Christopher R. Sabat

Roronoa Zoro is Luffy's stoic right-hand man, and he always does what's best for the longevity of the Straw Hat Pirates while looking for his next great battle. The swordsman has a level head compared to Luffy, which could be a product of his age since Zoro is two years older than his captain.

Zoro is vicious in battle, arguably the most out of any Straw Hat barring maybe Nico Robin. Dependable in most areas that do not have to do with giving or following directions, Zoro steps up to the plate even in the direst of situations, such as Kuma's appearance in the Thriller Bark arc.

Nami

  • Debut Episode: I’m Luffy! The Man Who’s Gonna Be King of the Pirates! (Episode 1)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: 366 Million Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Akemi Okamura
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Luci Christian

Nami is the navigator and treasurer of the Straw Hats, although she takes on various other roles as well. Just like most of the women in One Piece, Nami is quite tall. Although only slightly older than Luffy, Nami occasionally plays the part of the mature sibling; however, this primarily comes down to the fact that she is one of the more cautious members of the Straw Hats. That said, she is pretty dangerous with her Clima-Tact.

One Piece: 17 Times Nami Proved She Isn't Weak
Nami might not be an expert fighter like others in One Piece, but she is still strong in battle. Here are a few moments that prove it.

Nami's birthday is July 3rd, making her a Cancer. Cancers are generally thought to be well-versed in emotion, and Nami is possibly the most compassionate Straw Hat given the right circumstances. She can certainly be greedy and cutthroat, but when it comes to protecting the weak, she's the first to put her life on the line.

Usopp

Sniper

  • Debut Episode: I’m Luffy! The Man Who’s Gonna Be King of the Pirates! (Episode 1)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: 500 Million Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Kappei Yamaguchi
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Sonny Strait

The Straw Hats' sharpshooter, Usopp has a similar personality to his captain as both characters are energetic, prone to bouts of silliness, hard-headed, and love a good adventure. However, unlike Luffy, Usopp is painfully aware of his mortality at all times, which manifests in a tragic illness that is not taken seriously by his crew mates. Alongside Nami, Usopp typically provides the most vocal resistance to Luffy's propensity to jump head-first into danger. However, also like Nami, Usopp does not let his fears stop him from helping out and doing the right thing.

Although still insecure to an extent, Usopp has generally grown braver as the years have flown by. He has been through just as much hardship as any of the other Straw Hats, and while he usually does not face off against the crew's strongest enemies, Usopp has bested his share of heavyweights.

Sanji

Cook

  • Debut Episode: Famous Cook! Sanji of the Sea Restaurant! (Episode 20)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: 1,032 Billion Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Hiroaki Hirata
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Eric Vale

Introduced in the Baratie Arc, Sanji is a master chef who can more than hold his own in battle. Typically dressed in a suit, the Straw Hats' cook looks older than he really is, although his immaturity shines through whenever he happens to be around a woman. While he has a petty rivalry with Zoro that frequently manifests in mock fights, Sanji is willing and able to put himself on the line for his crewmates.

With Luffy and Zoro, Sanji completes the Straw Hats' deadly trio, even if he is generally regarded as the weakest of the crew's strongest members. Despite his tendency to act like an idiot, Sanji is very intelligent and perceptive, as he has proven time and again throughout the story.

Tony Tony Chopper

Doctor

  • Debut Episode: Are You Happy? the Doctor Called Witch! (Episode 81)
  • Devil Fruit: Hito Hito no Mi
  • Current Bounty: 1 Thousand Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Ikue Otani
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Brina Palencia

Chopper is a character fans might struggle to guess his age if they tried. How old is Chopper? Well, Chopper is the youngest Straw Hat, and he is periodically treated as such. It is not unusual for Chopper to be babied by characters such as Robin and Zoro. His birthday is December 24th, Christmas Eve, which reflects the cold climate he comes from and the fact that he was originally a reindeer.

Chopper's small size and gentle appearance are an invitation for enemies to underestimate him, but he's a fierce fighter when he has to be. However, this Straw Hat's greatest weapon is his mind, specifically his medical knowledge that has regularly saved the rest of the crew.

Nico Robin

Archaeologist

  • Debut Episode: Deliver Princess Vivi! the Luffy Pirates Set Sail! (Episode 67)
  • Devil Fruit: Hana Hana no Mi
  • Current Bounty: 930 Million Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Yuriko Yamaguchi
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Stephanie Young

Nico Robin is the cool and collected Straw Hat with a love for "cute things." When she joined the crew, Robin was a mysterious figure who kept her distance, a decision fueled by her tragic backstory. Her personality is initially hard to pin down, but she opens up after the Enies Lobby arc. Since then, Robin has never wavered in her dedication to Luffy and the Straw Hats, and this commitment seems to grow stronger with each passing arc.

In the post-timeskip arcs, Robin has a habit of fading somewhat in the background. Despite being a very capable fighter in her own right, she rarely gets an opportunity to show her abilities; while frustrating, this aversion to combat does fit the archeologist's calm nature. If someone angers her enough to push her into action, Robin can be the most vicious member of the Straw Hats.

Franky

Shipwright

  • Debut Episode: Pirate Abduction Incident! a Pirate Ship That Can Only Await Her End! (Episode 233)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: 394 Million Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Kazuki Yao
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Patrick Seitz

If nothing else, Franky has the most interesting physique out of all the Straw Hats. Before the timeskip, the shipwright looked like the sci-fi lovechild of Johnny Bravo and Popeye; post-timeskip, Franky is more mecha than human. Either way, he has an eye-catching aesthetic.

Related
One Piece: Franky's Best Friends, Ranked
The cyborg shipwright Franky has made unbreakable bonds throughout One Piece, thanks to his charm and charisma.

Introduced in the Water 7 arc, Franky initially served as something of an antagonist. He even had his own crew (and a real one too, unlike Usopp), albeit a land-locked one. Joining the Straw Hats as its shipwright, Franky plays a crucial role in guaranteeing the Thousand Sunny stays afloat.

Brook

Musician

  • Debut Episode: The Mysterious Skeleton Floating Through the Fog! Venture Into the Devil's Sea! (Episode 337)
  • Devil Fruit: Yomi Yomi no Mi
  • Current Bounty: 383 Million Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Cho
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Ian Sinclair

While he technically stopped aging at 38, Brook has been around for way longer than any other Straw Hat. Originally a member of the Rumbar Pirates, the musician was killed alongside his crew; however, his Devil Fruit allowed him to come back as a skeleton. Brook spent roughly 50 years on his own, only breaking his isolation when he stumbled across Luffy.

Bringing song to the Straw Hats' travels, Brook helps maintain the crew's spirits while also being a valuable hand in combat situations. Even though he is generally charming and empathetic, the musician also loves his dirty jokes.

Jinbe

Helmsman

  • Debut Episode: A Warlord in Prison! Jimbei, the Honorable Pirate! (Episode 430)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: 1,100 Billion Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Katsuhisa Hoki
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Daniel Baugh

Jinbe is the newest addition to the Straw Hats who lived during the Golden Age of pirates. He also led the Sun Pirates, basically acting as the king of the Fishman underworld. Because of this, he's older than the other Straw Hats at 46 years old.

One Piece: 6 Devil Fruits Perfect For Jinbe
While a devil fruit might be detrimental for a Fish man like Jinbe, here are some devil fruits that he could make good use of.

Jinbe's height is shown to change throughout the manga and anime for scale because if his true height was shown, he might not always fit on the screen. He's a giant Fishman with the build of a blue whale and a shark. His monstrous size hides his compassionate and gentle side. His birthday is April 2nd, which makes him an Aries, a sign known for its ambition.

Special Mention: Vivi

Temporary Member

Vivi One Piece 1060
  • Debut Episode: The First Line of Defense? the Giant Whale Laboon Appears! (Episode 62)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: Not Wanted
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Misa Watanabe
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Caitlin Glass

Nefertari Vivi was only part of the Straw Hats for a brief period, as she joined the crew during the Alabasta Saga. This whole ordeal led to the Straw Hats taking on Baroque Works, with Vivi seeking Luffy's help to free Alabasta from Crocodile's dictatorship.

Vivi left the Straw Hats straight after this arc, however, she is a crew member in spirit. As the princess of a country, Vivi can't travel the Grand Line on the Thousand Sunny with the Straw Hats, but there is no doubt that Luffy would welcome her to the crew in a heartbeat.

Special Mention: Zeus

Nami's Partner

zeus nami one piece
  • Debut Episode: Totto Land! Emperor Big Mom Appears! (Episode 786)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: Not Wanted
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Yu Mizushima
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Kevin D. Thelwell

Describing Zeus as a member of the Straw Hats is a bit of a stretch, but the anthropomorphic cloud does have a fully fleshed-out personality and actively assists the crew, specifically Nami. Originally belonging to Big Mom, Zeus was among the Emperor's most powerful weapons, and he was generally committed to serving his master.

However, Zeus eventually fell under Nami's control, who found the cloud was a perfect match for her weather-themed abilities. Initially, Nami basically held Zeus captive, although that did eventually change as the latter actively decided to become the navigator's partner.

Straw Hat Grand Fleet

straw hat grand fleet

Introduced during the Dressrosa arc, the Straw Hat Grand Fleet refers to pirate crews that have pledged allegiance to Luffy. Although not quite as powerful as the Straw Hats themselves, these crews can hold their own against most opponents, and they are all led by capable captains.

One Piece: Every Pirate Crew Part Of The Straw Hat Grand Fleet
The Straw Hat crew got bigger with the formation of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet. Here's every crew currently sailing under Luffy's flag.

Cavendish (Beautiful Pirates)

  • Debut Episode: A Dangerous Love! The Dancer Girl - Violet! (Episode 632)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: 330 Million Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Akira Ishida
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Matt Shipman

A prince of the Bourgeois Kingdom, Cavendish initially hated Luffy since he yearned to be the center of attention, an achievement rendered nearly impossible when the Straw Hat is around. However, Cavendish gradually changed his tune as he witnessed Luffy and the rest of his crew fight against Doflamingo. While a gifted swordsman by any standard, Cavendish is far more dangerous when he falls asleep since this permits his alternate ego, the brutal Hakuba, to come out.

Bartolomeo (Barto Club)

  • Debut Episode: A Formidable, Unknown Warrior! Here Comes Lucy! (Episode 633)
  • Devil Fruit: Bari Bari no Mi
  • Current Bounty: 200 Million Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Showtaro Morikubo
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Tyson Rinehart

The ultimate Straw Hat fanboy, Bartolomeo has idealized Luffy ever since he saw the Straw Hat escape an execution with a smile on his face. Goofy as he can be at times, the Barto Club captain should not be underestimated, and he knows how to make good use of his Bari Bari no Mi Devil Fruit. Out of all the Grand Fleet's leaders, Bartolomeo is arguably the most popular, to the point that he got to star in the Silver Mine Arc, an anime-only filler storyline set between Dressrosa and Zou.

Sai (Happo Navy)

  • Debut Episode: A Dangerous Love! The Dancer Girl - Violet! (Episode 632)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: 210 Million Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Koichi Hashimoto
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Kyle Igneczi

Another fighter who met Luffy during the Corrida Colosseum storyline, Sai is prone to the occasional outburst, although he has a moral and ethical code that he lives by. Sai is the leader of the Happo Navy, a role he filled after the retirement of his grandfather, Chinjao. Sai pledges allegiance to Luffy following the events of Dressrosa, and while he has not appeared much since that storyline, he did show up during the Levely Arc.

Ideo (Ideo Pirates)

  • Debut Episode: A Formidable, Unknown Warrior! Here Comes Lucy! (Episode 633)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: Unknown
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Masaki Aizawa
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Eric Rolon

A capable fighter, Ideo fought in the Corrida Colosseum alongside Luffy and Cavendish. Constantly seeking to push himself to new heights, the pirate values honor and respect. He showcases this mentality when he decides to repay the Straw Hats for freeing him from Sugar's control by fighting with them rather than trying to cash in on their bounties.

Leo (Tontatta Pirates)

  • Debut Episode: Explore! Fairies' Island - Green Bit! (Episode 640)
  • Devil Fruit: Nui Nui no Mi
  • Current Bounty: Unknown
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Kurumi Mamiya
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Rachel Glass

A respected officer of the Tontatta Kingdom, Leo was a prominent figure in the tribe's plan to seize Dressrosa from Doflamingo's grasp. Eventually, he accomplished this goal, although he received some help from Luffy, Usopp, and the remaining Straw Hats. While a bit on the gullible side, Leo is a devoted warrior with a useful Devil Fruit.

Hajrudin (New Giant Warrior Pirates)

  • Debut Episode: The Fighting Fish Strike! Across the Deadly Iron Bridge! (Episode 639)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: Unknown
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Tsuyoshi Koyama
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Randy E. Aguebor/Chris Guerrero

A prideful giant, Hajrudin has no qualms bragging about his physical prowess or bowing his head to pirates he respects. Formerly a member of Buggy's Delivery, Hajrudin opted to join the Straw Hat Grand Fleet in order to show his gratitude to Luffy and, to a lesser extent, Usopp.

Orlumbus (Yonta Maria Grand Fleet)

  • Debut Episode: A Dangerous Love! The Dancer Girl - Violet! (Episode 632)
  • Devil Fruit: N/A
  • Current Bounty: 148 Million Berries
  • Anime Voice Actor (Japanese): Jiro Saito
  • Anime Voice Actor (English): Brandon Potter

Out of all the Straw Hat Grand Fleet's captains, One Piece has paid the least attention to Orlumbus. Still, the admiral has proven to be boastful, loyal, smart, and honorable. He also has a big heart, as made evident by the manga's The Stories of the Self-Proclaimed Straw Hat Grand Fleet.
