Chopper frequently behaves like a child and is incredibly frightened around strangers. He is just as easily impressed by weapons like beams, cannons, and hidden powers as Luffy is.

Like Usopp and Nami, he can be a coward at times, although his behavior can be explained by his immaturity and general lack of faith in his fighting prowess.

As he is the youngest, Chopper is the most sympathetic member of the Straw Hat Pirates. Following the time skip, Chopper seems to have gained confidence in himself and his skills. He is now determined to be someone who can carry out any of his captain’s orders effectively.

Chopper is an upright friend and caring companion who will do whatever to complete a mission assigned to his team. When it comes to eating sweets, Chopper has a sugar craving and is just as passionate about food as Luffy.

Relationships

Since Chopper is the youngest member of the crew, he has always been getting lessons on maturity and masculinity from other crew members. He is especially close to Luffy who accepted and liked him for his transformations, the same transformations that had Chopper labeled as a monster by others.

He jokes and fools around with Luffy while being deeply inspired by his actions and ideologies. He respects Luffy the most since Luffy is the ideal captain for any crew.

Chopper idolizes Zoro because he believes that Zoro is super cool and strong. He is often amazed by Zoro’s swordsmanship and is awestruck by the latter’s mental fortitude and skills.

Zoro in return also cares for Chopper and is the most protective of him. He also in various scenes has been shown to light up Chopper’s mood every time Chopper is depressed or anxious.
