9. They can fit into very small spaces
Even the big ones. They travel dozens in very small cars.


on a serious note: My brother actually did have a clown phobia for a number of years. Couldn't get him in a circus for anything.

11. Not a clown. Although
One of his arch enemies is a clown. He's just a rather excitable pirate with a straw hat.

12. care to elaborate?
He doesn't look like a pirate to me. I always took him for a scarecrow. Is he some pirate in particular?

13. Luffy D Monkey
Main character from an anime series called One Piece. He is a pirate in a world embraced in an age called the age of pirates. Pirates in this world need not be about piracy. Its more about adventure and a quest for a particular lost treasure.

Luffy is an odd pirate in a world infested with odd pirates. He doesn't look like a normal pirate. Doesn't act like a normal pirate. And in general is not a normal pirate. He is a champion of defending people's hopes and dreams.

He is also made of rubber due to a curse.

Its been brought to the US recently by Funimation but they have unfortunately decided to dumb/child it down for the US audience. Thus the translation takes a lot of the edge off the dialog and various other aspects of the show have been tamed for US consumption. It shows on FOX saturday morning I understand. But if you can find it in its original format with subtitles its much better (opinion).

The clown nemesis he has is curse similarly to him and instead of being made out of rubber he is able to detach his limbs and such.

16. Yep
Although there is some faux anime coming from the states these days its still a pale imitation of the original. All the image and none of the quality.
