User Jmdin83 on Reddit has discovered a pair of characters that have yet to be officially identified in the Mū Rōm group, in a post introducing a new episode and posing the question “Who are they?”. This revelation has left many people astonished, as not everyone seems to be paying attention to the opening segment.
At a glance, any viewer with a keen eye would have noted that this segment is specially designed to attract attention. Moreover, some commenters specifically remarked: “Only Jim and Bill are the best members of the Mū Rōm band!” Upon inspection, these two characters have a striking resemblance to the beloved characters Nami and Nico Robin.
So, who are these mysterious characters?
These characters are believed to be the singers of the opening song of One Piece, episode 78, titled “Crazy Rainbow,” performed by the renowned Japanese duo Tackey and Tsubasa. They were introduced in the introductory segment of episode 303, a compilation episode in the Enies Lobby arc of One Piece, celebrating the Day of the Dead and captivating viewers’ attention.
One Piece has a vast number of episodes, making it common for viewers to overlook the introductory segments. Therefore, if the animation studios were to include unique and colorful background characters in the opening segment of a newly released episode, it might not be immediately noticed by everyone. Fans may have to challenge themselves by exploring the hidden mysteries within the introductory segments of One Piece for episodes aired on special occasions.
