(( Long post, this contains fragments of the manga ))

This is so hard to tell, Zoro (like every other strawhat) has a lot of amazing moments so this is gonna be a bit hard? I’m sorry I cannot choose only one bc they’re so many so here’s a little compilation ;;;;

( First off I'm going to say that EACH and EVERY interaction Zoro has with the strawhats are my favorite moments in One Piece, specially between Zoro and Sanji; leaving to a side the fact that I ship them, how they treat, fight and talk to eachother is incredible and always entertaining. Natural, they are just two dudes that clash with one another and I love it ...Their relationship makes me happy, you have no idea how much. )

- "That's what a captain is. "

These  words, after one of my favorite moments in the whole series, destroy me everytime; literally makes me cry every single time. Zoro's face, Luffy and the others suffering in silence after what's done with Usopp send chills all over my body. I know this is a bit simple to be one of my favorite moments but this is just so... heavy.

- Roronoa Zoro vs Ryuma.

Zoro gained my favorite sword until now by fighting a fucking samurai zombie. No words.

- " So that I may surpass you...!!! "

Knowing the swordsman, we know this was too much to bare for him, to his pride, to his honor; and even with that, he bowed a third time in order to become stronger, not only to reach his goal but for his friends, to not let anything they were going through happen again. He thought next time a situation like this come he'd be strong enough to face anything. Now his dream would be worthless If he cannot protect whats precious for him. Zoro won’t allow himself lose anyone ever again Also he trained with Mihawk r u kidding?!?!?

- Zoro's sacrifice.

I guess this is one of the favorite scenes of most of the One Piece fandom and I am not exeption. Zoro, like Sanji, handling the situation and prepared to die in order to protect the captain and the crew is something that we all love, no matter if you like the character or not. This is one of the best scenes in the entire series and it'd be a shame for the character if I don't mention it in this compilation. The second time he bowed to anyone.

I'm adding this scene too because this is the result of the previous act. Once again, Zoro is willing to die for the sake of their comrades and asks to be left behind to not be a burden to the group, to make sure they’ll live. In this point I want to mention that I love the scenes and fights where the swordsman is really fucked up (like Zoro vs Daz Bones, that fight is G O L D). Not that I like him suffer but because it's so strange now to see him like this, wounded, almost dead, fighting not physically but to survive... Zoro were more human in a certain way and I wish we get to see him having things hard in Wano, I’m sorry.

- "Then I'll be the one to leave the crew this time!"

The weight of these words are another level, who have ever thought that bastard would say such thing? The very idea of the ���most loyal” strawhat to Luffy leaving the crew is something terrifyng; Zoro is a prideful man, obviously he wouldn't follow anyone; people mostly think, because he also said so, that he said what he said because he doesn't want to follow someone who's been disgraced but I think he thought more about what the others would say about his captain than about himself. Those words didn't mean only "If you let others step on you, I'll leave" that also meant " If any of you disrespect the captain, I'll leave". They are all friends, that was a way to prove if they really care about their friendship too.

- “ Seems you understimated me, snow woman... “

I’ll be honest, sorry If you don’t think as I do but this is one of the best battles Zoro had post time skip. Personally this gets me a lot. Just that. Monet was so precious and is one of my favorite females characters as well. I love Zoro and Tashigi swordsmanship and watching them fighthing “together” is heaven to my eyes. My main ship is ZoSan but when I think in a more reallistic way and you ask me who’s going to end up with Zoro I can only think on Tashigi....or alone. I don’t think he would “fall” for another woman, idk.

- Zoro in Wano.

I’m not showing any pics of Wano because that’s too recent and I guess some people is still in the past arc but...

Bro, the crew is finally in Wano. Bro, Zoro is going to learn fire blade moves I guess, he said so in Punk Hazzard;;;. Bro, he’s a fucking “Ronin” (samurái without master), Bro, probs we’ll see more about Zoro’s past. Just, bro. Now, finished with my fav Zoro moments, I might say that probably my favorite arcs 'til now are Skypea, Water 7, Ennies lobby, Thriller Bark, Whole cake and, for the little we have, Wano. As I said before, Samurais are my weakness. I hope this is enough for you, thanks for asking!
