Fan Buys a Nami Figure to Test Whether She Really Doesn’t Wear Underwear

A Nami Figure has become a hot topic among One Piece fans once again after a Japanese otaku decided to investigate a curious statement made years ago by Eiichiro Oda. The post generated hundreds of humorous comments from fans of the series.

It all started because of an answer Oda gave in One Piece SBS Volume 114, where the author commented on the design of Nami’s outfit and those of other female characters who wear clothing with extremely high side slits. At the time, the mangaka casually stated that the characters were indeed not wearing underwear beneath their outfits.

Nami Figure Becomes the Target of Fan Investigation

Taking Oda’s comment literally, one fan decided to buy a Nami Figure featuring her Elbaf outfit to see whether the manufacturer had stayed faithful to Eiichiro Oda’s original idea.

Using a flashlight to inspect underneath the figure, he discovered that the manufacturer had left the entire area completely black, without adding any extra details. The result quickly caught the attention of internet users, turning the situation into a joke across social media.

Shortly afterward, another user commented that there are other figures that follow a similar approach, making collectors even more curious.

Among the fans’ reactions were comments such as:

• “There isn’t actually any underwear. That’s just Haki.”
• “That’s dark matter. It’s impossible to see.”
• “Well… if they had recreated that part in such detail, that would’ve been a problem.”
• “The Japanese really investigate every possible detail.”
• “Now any figure that looks different will seem like it goes against Oda’s specifications.”
• “Since the figure’s specifications differ from the author’s official interpretation, this must be a bootleg figure.”

Despite all the discussion, fans treated the entire situation as a joke, turning the post into yet another amusing moment that went viral within the One Piece community.

The incident also shows how even small comments made by Eiichiro Oda continue to be remembered years later, especially when they involve unusual details about the world he created. Even a simple Nami Figure ended up becoming the subject of investigation among collectors and fans alike
