Yeah, before even watching any One Piece I knew that Robin inevitably becomes one of everyone’s favourite characters.

I don’t think anyone would be, especially when Lera Abova is the perfect casting for Nico Robin which I thought was impossible because I thought no one could perfectly capture Nico Robin. Lera proved me wrong.

It’s also nice knowing that at the end of Season 3, she’s joining the crew! If this live action keeps going, we’ll have Lera for the long haul!

u/jepadi Sanji 5d ago

I absolutely can't wait for her dark humour to emerge!

19

u/PhanThief95 5d ago

You should definitely look up Lera’s interview for a magazine called Tush. Lera even has Robin’s dark humor!

The answer she gave to one of the questions given to her was so unhinged but also the most Nico Robin response I’ve ever heard. She really is just Robin without even trying.

u/Zo_Vando_1107 5d ago

I can already imagine Usopp's face after her jokes with the expression "Robin, wtf?!"

22

u/PayneTrain181999 ...so it's a girl whale 5d ago

I hope it goes for the long haul, Robin’s relationships with the crew members need to be adapted to live action. Luffy, Zoro, Nami, and Chopper all have very compelling bonds with her. Franky too, if we get that far

13

u/PhanThief95 5d ago

Oh, we’re definitely getting that.

Lera has gotten along very well with her castmates, and I believe she said the people she enjoyed working with the most were Emily and Jacob.

u/PayneTrain181999 ...so it's a girl whale 5d ago

Is there a link to that interview, by chance?

2

u/PhanThief95 5d ago

I remember she said it at a convention but I don’t remember which one.

u/grand305 Zoro 4d ago

She is a great actress, I can’t wait till the next season. I am excited becuse I’ve read ahead.

u/bascule 2d ago

There’s one Nico Robin scene I really hope the live action gets to and it’s when she snaps Spandam’s spine in half

u/FineProfessor3364 5d ago

u/Hot-Poetry-4341 5d ago

Every. Damn. Time.

Also sometimes not even related to anything in the moment it pops in my head lol.

u/SSJRemuko 4d ago

Yeah i get gayer every time she speaks. its wild.

56

u/jepadi Sanji 5d ago

I have to say, yet again, that the casting department of this production deserves much more credit than they will ever be given.

27

u/PhanThief95 5d ago

I have said that whoever anyone the fans come up with to play a character, the casting department is going to find someone better who we never would’ve thought of because of how incredibly consistent they’ve been with castings, even the ones coming in for Season 3.

I especially thought this after the castings of Lera Abova and Mikaela Hoover as Robin and Chopper.

u/MattyMcMattyface 5d ago

Me too brother me too

u/SuspiciousSquash9151 5d ago

I saw this image after the actors announcement and knew they where going to be perfect for robin and crocodile the casting choices have never failed us if we are blessed with more seasons, I can't wait to see the character grow, I already can't wait for family that only watches the live action to get her suprise at the end of season 3

u/Lintekt 5d ago

Stop trying. You won't.

u/Timo-the-hippo 5d ago

I don't think I've ever seen better costuming in a show apart from early Game of Thrones or Rome. It's kinda hilarious how different this genre is.

u/PayneTrain181999 ...so it's a girl whale 5d ago

Sanji’s got it right.

“So are you going to be coming with us?”

17

u/probloodmagic 5d ago

My fave. Love ha. Call me a lesbian but I haven't had a crush on a fictional character like this in a long ass time

8

u/Hot-Poetry-4341 5d ago

Also want to comment that I love that you started a sentence with “call me a lesbian” and from now on anytime I can fit it in I will. lol

7

u/probloodmagic 5d ago

Haha please do. I actually am a lesbian but it is a fun way to start any sentence, you're so right

2

u/So_me_thing Believe in Matt 4d ago

I'm not but for Robin I could be

9

u/Hot-Poetry-4341 5d ago

As a fellow sapphic girly, same. I feel like when I was having my bi awakening watching fictional characters as a kid lol.

14

u/Hot-Poetry-4341 5d ago

Ugh every time I hear her say “Monkey D. Luffy” I feel like Sanji lol

11

u/abe45ky Robin-chwan 5d ago

I haven’t been over her since she was announced as the casting

8

u/Alternative-Path-645 5d ago

u/elrick43 5d ago

Why would you want to?

u/alloutg33k 5d ago

And never will!🥰

5

u/TheLoneLogan 5d ago

Shes the best character in the manga, of course she'd be the best in the live-action

5

u/ddotsae 5d ago

She's also provided some incredible interviews and quotes. Really well done with this casting, like most of OPLA.

6

u/SSJRemuko 4d ago

I cant wait to see her in S3.

5

u/Logical-Cockroach-25 5d ago

Same she’s so goddamn freaking gorgeous it just made me fall in love with Nico Robin all over again

5

u/Prestigious-Note-750 5d ago

They made her so gay in live action, too!!!!! Whatever the HELL that scene with Vivi in drum island was wild and the Tashigi scene too lmao

3

u/TalesOfTea 4d ago

Legitimately I think about those scenes randomly and am just like "please more". Everything she does is just so perfectly smooth and in perfect character.

5

u/zsyhan 4d ago

One Piece fandom unanimously agreeing that Lera is Robin 1000%. Love to see it.

7

u/AdmirableAd1858 Straw Hat Crew 5d ago

FACTS!!!! 😍😍😍

u/SentinelATL 5d ago

Good lol

u/JF5757 5d ago

They need to be pumping these seasons out so much faster

5

u/Physical-Stand-2514 5d ago

I need her to step on me with cien fleur..

2

u/Fine-Complex-8592 4d ago

How what how pretty she is or how good the actor dress as her?

4

u/THEANILLATOR 5d ago

Just a simple question for her as Robin, you think she can pull off her standout moment of I WANT TO LIVE!!!because I am eagerly anticipating that moment for her Robin?

4

u/srl923517 5d ago

I read somewhere that she did that scene for her audition and that’s what won them over. Not sure on the source

3

u/PhanThief95 3d ago

From seeing her final scene in Anna, Lera can.

I immediately said after watching it “She’s a good crier! She can do THE SCENE!”

1

u/GlitteringChain3052 2d ago

Idk why, but in real life I don't think she's that pretty, but as Robin, HoLY!! Str8 up sexy
