drawing by Oda, One Piece, Ch 662
Colors by Katzztar

title is a joke on the the several translation so far seen for this harpy. Sveral sites shows it as Mone, but several translators say it should be Monet.

Personally I like Monet, that is why I put the 't' on her introduction box. But I know that some people will "try to point it out" that the "official" translation is Mone. Nope, sorry kiddos, that is NOT the official translation, its done by fans that are amateurs at translation. The raw showed katakana for the name so its difficult to translate until Oda gives the romanji version. Just look how we got several names wrong=
Fans thought -- offical name
Chu -- Chew
Jimbei -- Jinbe
Moria -- Moriah
Oz -- Oars
Joz/Joss -- Jozu
ect, ect, ect,

Even on romanji names, there are some tweeking need to be done to translate to English - Usoppu -> Usopp
I've read that Shanks was also different in Romanji.

So No, we do not know her offical name. So until Oda says the offical translated name, I'm going with Monet.

Edit 4/6/12 - I darkened the color of her clothing (the lilac looked more pink than purple X_X) and tried to add highlights to her hair and wings.

When she first appeared I wanted her to, but after this weeks (10/24/12) chapter, I'm more hopeful that she stays as a villian. She is is just too deliciously wicked :)

She is truly a well-written FEMALE villian: wicked humor, intelligent, has wicked power, smart, seems nice one moment then psychotic the next.

In what rank she gets as fave villian I have to put gender aside, there is seriosuly not a lot of serious female villians in OP.Alvida isn't a threat, Hancock poses no threat to Luffy and his crew. The female villians like Perona, Ms Doublefinger, Ms Valentine and Kalifa are long gone and netrualized as threats. Those former ones wouldn't hold their own in a fight with Monet. Big Mom is still pretty much a potential threat that has not yet been made real.

Monet has become my #2 fave OP villian, position formerly held by Caeser Clown who's now in third, (doflo is in #4 do to not seeing much of him personally)
#1 is the complex character of Crocodile.

Exactly, but if you think, back in the day, i wouldn't even Dream of having Franky or Robin in the Crew. the Fact that Monet is a Top-Tier female fighter would make her a great addition because:

- They are entering the New World, there's definetly gonna be a lot of strong fighters, women included (Catharina Devon and Big Mom, for example, She's a Damn Youko! She's one the same Level as Kaido, Shanks, and Whitebeard! and i bet she's just the beginning as Female "New-Worlders" Villains). and the only Top Tier in the Crew are Sanji (who won't kick a woman, period), Zoro (who holds back against women as Monet herself stated), and Luffy (who is the Only one who don't care if he's fighting a woman or a man, but usually go and fight the main bad guy, do you remember ANY main female bad guy? Alvida doesn't count). Robin is Mid-Tier (she's Good but not Great).

- Monet not only is top-tier, but she's a LOGIA! (or mayve she's a Mystic Zoan, wich would explain the Wings) it's about time they have a Logia in the Crew!

- She have a Gag, (when Sanji bust in with the Marines and they started to say that she is beautiful, she blushes and hide her face in the wings) and that's a MUST to be a Straw Hat.

- She's FIERCE! They NEED a Fierce Top Grade Female Fighter! 'cuz if they go to the New World, and there's a female Fighter that neither Zoro or Sanji will go all-out, and Luffy is somewhere else, There's MONET!

Also, it's pretty Obvious that Jinbei will eventually join the Crew later on, and i think Monet could counter balance Jinbei, and they would be like a Monster Quintet instead of a Monster Trio

what you think? she's look pretty evil right now, but i think that's a Plus! i really want to see her in the crew!

Thank you!
I went through several versions until I settled for this one ... though I am thinking of touching up on the shoulder/wing area so it looks more gradual change

Did you also know that it's Ceasar Crown, not Clown?
Reply

No, its been translated by a pro, its Caeser Clown. The Ceaser Crown was an early fan translation. In the Arlong Park forums three was a link that showed the name and actual translaton.

Many fans (including me) wants it to be Ceasar Clown because his looks reminded people of the Joker. The name reminds people of the actor who played the Joker on the 60's Batman sitcom. I forgot his last name, but his first name was Ceaser.

Ah, but we already have a clown villain in One Piece.


And apparently a Joker villian.
