Nakama is Magic: The loyalist among friends

The last of my One Piece and My Little Pony matchup pairings: Rainbow Dash and Roronoa Zoro

RD may be the Element of Loyalty but Zoro could be the Avatar of Loyalty as he stood by his captain throughout the series and even ready to toss his dream, pride and life away so that Luffy could survive and venture forth to become the King of the Pirates.

Here, Rainbow Dash and Zoro doing some cleanup work of creatures being a nuisance in Ponyville. There has been some debate of why I would pair up RD with Zoro, since RD has the habit of being a bit of a braggart (almost as much as Trixie) while Zoro, while as confident, is a bit more humble. However, rewatching Zoro's flashback as a child, he did face a humbling defeat to his childhood rival time and time again, so his cockiness may have been nipped in the bud.

In the image, Zoro demonstrates his Kokujo: O Tatsumaki (Black Rope Dragon Twister) technique that may rival a hurricane created by multiple pegaesi (Hurricane Fluttershy episode) while it is enhanced by RD's own speed to make it into the Niji: O Tatsumaki (Rainbow Rope Dragon Twister) to rid Ponyville of troublemakers in ten seconds flat...

There have been some that noted that Zoro is attitude is more along with Big Mac and RD showboating is along with Franky, and while this is true, I went with how loyal these two are to their friends and crew. Given that RD represents loyalty and Zoro proven his loyalty to his captain and the safety of his crewmates when faced against Kuma.
