Natsu: Lol your profile pic is illustrated by Mashima

Unok: Cool! Never realized that.

I do think that Nami and Robin have awesomely strong and unique characters, and I do like them. But if you're just talking about strength, they don't give the kind of hero-like feeling... like in a losing battle and they suddenly appear, you won't be like "YES, she's here, the epic battle will begins!!!". Well, it's not really an important factor, but seeing something like that would be interesting. Diane is sort of giving that kind of feeling right now, like she's the one who will save the day. In OP, I guess you can say that Big Mom is a strong female character... but... well... you know... whatever. I was also hoping for a super strong female marine character, which Tashigi could have been, but still isn't epic enough. I'm currently rooting for the admiral who hasn't appeared yet to be female - don't really mind if she's an old granny.
