is a canine-type mink, who leads the Mink Tribe from dawn to dusk, and is a feline-type mink, who leads the Mink Tribe from dusk to dawn. As children they came to Wano Country, where they became retrainers of #Kozuki Oden, Kozuki Oden, whom years later they accompanied on his journey at sea as crew members of the #Whitebeard Pirates, Whitebeard Pirates, and later as members of the #Roger Pirates, Roger Pirates. When Oden died, they both blamed each other for failing to protect him, later returning to Zou, where at some point they became rulers, and harboring a grudge for years by avoiding seeing each other. Due to an invasion of Zou by the #Animal Kingdom Pirates, Animal Kingdom Pirates led by Jack, Dogstorm lost half a leg, while Cat Viper lost half an arm. When the Straw Hat Pirates and the Heart Pirates arrived in Zou, they formed an alliance with them and the Kozuki Clan to travel to Wano and end Kaido's tyranny.


Carrot

is a rabbit-type mink member of Dogstorm's Musketeers and a ruler's aide. Eager to travel around the world and see the seas, she infiltrates the Thousand Sunny as the Straw Hat Pirates set out on their journey to #Totto Land, Totto Land to rescue Sanji, and remains on with the crew during their trip to #Wano Country, Wano Country. Carrot is an extremely skilled fighter, possessing extraordinary agility and speed and, as a rabbit, is capable of taking very high jumps. In combat, she uses clawed gauntlets that Pedro, who was her trainer, gave her when she was younger. Under the full moon, Carrot transformed into a ferocious berserker with incredible speed, strength, the power to fly and lightning powers. In the original Japanese series, Carrot is voiced by Kanae Itō. In the Funimation English adaptation, she is voiced by Tia Ballard.


Reception

Allen Divers of Anime News Network comments that the male character designs of ''One Piece'' are "often quite varied and unique", while the female ones become "a bit repetitive". He also notes that, as the characters are "defined by what they seek", there is little room "for actual development". Todd Douglass, Jr. of DVD Talk simply states that the series' characters have a lot of "charm". His colleague Carl Kimlinger describes the visual style of ''One Piece'' as "unconventional" with "grotesquely exaggerated expressions, simple eyes, big mouths and bigger teeth", "supremely ugly supporting characters and skinny, gangly-limbed main cast" and comments that "it's all amazingly distinctive, utterly appropriate, and surprisingly cool—in a goofy kind of way". He also notes that "Funimation's English dub is light-years better than the 4Kids debacle", "unusually accurate, professional, and largely enjoyable, which is far, far more than can be said of the previous dub". He laments that Funimation's version of "Crocodile loses his sepulchral charisma" and that "the original's fine dance on the edge of mawkish sentimentality is disrupted often enough by less-than-stellar acting". He also states that "Colleen Clinkenbeard's Luffy is more a generic spunky kid than a personality in his own right, really coming to life only during the action scenes during which she does a fine job of being darned cool." Dustin Somner of ''Blu-ray.com'' comments that the Japanese and Funimation voice-acting is "fairly good, but not exceptional" and sometimes "overly zany". Todd Douglass Jr. of DVD Talk notes "the daunting cast of characters, both good and bad" as "one of the appealing factors" of the anime, but also comments that "Some of the voices [of the 4Kids dub] were pretty irritating ... with a lot of high-pitches and over exaggerated speech." Brigitte Schönhense of Splashcomics comments that the "brilliant" (german: genial) flashbacks into the characters' pasts make them so "likeable and lovable" (German: "sympathisch und liebenswert") and that they are the manga's real strength. Mania Entertainment writer Jarred Pine comments that Oda's characters are "whacky" and that his "bizarre" character designs create "wonderful characterizations and personalities". He notes the "well illustrated" facial expressions and says that "it's the whacky characterizations and designs that makes ''One Piece'' its own". His colleague Bryce Coulter comments that "''One Piece''s bizarre character designs will keep your attention as they can be very random and often memorable. Not the prettiest, but it will definitely capture your attention."
