In Eiichiro Oda’sOne Piece, the Straw Hat Pirates are considered to be one of the sweetest pirate crews ever. The members always have each other’s backs, as they give everything to fulfill each other’s dreams. However, one of the bittersweet things about the crew is the rivalry between Vinsoke Sanji and Roronoa Zoro.
The rivalry is full of banters and hilarious insults as the two crew members desperately try to pull down the other, showcasing that they are better than their rival. As a result, the two would often fight over the smallest of reasons to prove their supremacy.
While the two have been close rivals in terms of overall strength, there is one aspect: the Sous Chef falls behind the Pirate Hunter. Iñaki Godoy, the Luffy actor in the live-action TV series, said that Mackenyu, the Zoro actor, is his favorite actor, as he sings praises of his co-star.
Iñaki Godoy Makes Zoro Superior In Comparison to His Rival
When it comes to dependency inEiichiro Oda’sstellar work, Monkey D. Luffy relies only on two of his strongest crew members, Black Leg Sanji and Roronoa Zoro. The two are considered to be the left and right hands of the Straw Hat’s captain, relying on them in the most crucial of times.
With that being said, the two do not share the best relationship in the series. Despite fighting almost on a daily basis, the two would get along like a hand in a glove, sometimes throwing banter at each other.
Black Leg often tries to water down the Moss Head’s achievements and bounty following their adventures. However, there’s one aspect the Sous Chef can’t achieve, as Iñaki Godoy, the Monkey D. Luffy actor, calls Mackenyu his favorite actor.

With his fairly impressive knowledge of the language, he mentioned,“I’m a huge fan of Mackenyu! Yes! I love Mackenyu! Yes!”However, that’s not all, as he called him his“favorite actor,”calling him infectiously popular in Japan.
The 27-year-old actor started blushing as he expressed his gratitude to his co-star while he sang such high praises for him. Nevertheless, the two share the exact same bond as Luffy and Zoro from the show, where they would act like best friends.
