sanji represents satan who was once lucifer ( the satan who is one and same with lucifer)

sanji represents satan who was one and the same with lucifer  m (Satan and Lucifer are  actually two different beings, one an outright demon, the other a fallen angel turned demon (Sometimes. It's also thought he might of been an earthly king too, since the name Lucifer only appears once in appears in one passage of the bible.) However due to osmosis  satan and lucifer were merged together so people treat them as the same being where  satan is what lucifer became after he fell from heaven though there are a  lot of manga or light novels where satan and lucifer are treated as separate beings they actually were 

 like blue exorcist  which oda reads or a few things like classifying demons to 7 deadly sins portraying lucifer as pride and satan as wrath)   he represents a satan who was once lucifer ( basically the version where satan and lucifer are one and same ) while blackbeard will represent satan  , and doffy  the lucifer 

sanjis blood type is Rh negative which is the same blood type as the nephilims (which are fallen angels who rebelled against god and  satan is a fallen angel)

one of the symbols of the illuminati is the eye of lucifer the all seeing eye www . illuminatirex . com/illuminati-symbols/  (which fits with sanji having observational eye hiding one eye usually linked

The gesture of hiding one eye, usually the left one, goes way back in occult orders.  All seeing Eye Believed to be the eye of Lucifer. so its said to be a satanic symbol and this is done because satan only has one eye his  left one 

and pre time skip his left eye was covered 

sanji post time skip has his right eye covered (and it  would be seen as a satanic symbol for him to cover his eye.

so its possible that sanji  will lose his right eye to fullfil his satan motif

satan is associated  with the sin of wrath and associated with the elment of fire. sanji as a nondevil fruit user   has shown fire abilities that no one else in the series has shown including a resistance to fire. and sanji has a technique called devils leg (diable jambe) and hells memories in fac the past 2 years he spent in a place he called hell

Some other facts that can be Oda foreshadowing what I said are:Sanji turning to Devil at Thriller Bark (although it is for fun reasons).

There second foreshadow is Sanji being a cook.Yeah Sanji being a cook has a lot to do with fire.He has been seen using fire while cooking just like every cook and that’s  theres a show called hells kitchen

Billy goats’ horns are spiral just like Sanji’s eyebrows.Moreover in some pictures and movies Satan is depicted with curly eyebrows just like Sanji.Still not convinced?Then what about this:Satan is the lord of hell-a place filled with fire right?Sanji’s diable jump is composed of fire and after the timeskip Sanji also has a new technique called Hell’s Memories.I believe Oda had been trying to foreshadow Sanji’s connection to hell. (and theres a cooking show called hells kitchen) (and theres a cover image portraying sanji asa billy goat)  Some other facts that can be Oda foreshadowing what I said are:Sanji turning to Devil at Thriller Bark (although it is for fun reasons).

en . wikipedia . org/wiki/Classification_of_demons

  • Lucifer: pride
  • Mammon: greed
  • Asmodeus: lust
  • Leviathan: envy
  • Beelzebub: gluttony
  • Satan: wrath
  • Belphegor: sloth
  • Satan (Hebrew) "Lord of the Inferno":

The adversary, representing opposition, the element of fire, the direction of the south, and the Sigil of Baphomet during ritual. (

en . wikipedia . org/wiki/Seraph

  heck satan was originally a seraph ( the highest order of angel )  seraph means the burning ones and this fits with sanji using fire techniques where he lits himself on fire and he burns

during the rituals the sigil of baphomet is used who is basically a goat demon and it seems like sanjis animal motif is a goat now. and in the pictures of baphomet

. In most of his fights, sanjis body burn of anger (Sanji vs Absolom, Sanji vs Wadatsumi etc.) (plus satan is associated with dragons and western dragons use fire 

 in revelations satan was described as a dragon form  and portrayed as a dragon in some in some pieces of art like a statues etc.  heck satan was originally a seraph ( the highest order of angel )  seraph means the burning ones and were said to have dragon forms/connected to dragon zoro was portrayed as a tiger in recent art pieces in asia there is a tiger vs. dragon motif where someone with tiger symbolism and one with dragon symbolism are enemys or rivals so it would fit

 its been noted that sanj has similaritys to sabo as well as their situation and now sabo has a fire fruit and uses a style named the dragon claw fist (ryusoken) onepiece . wikia . com/wiki/Ryusoken

onepiece . wikia . com/wiki/Sabo from the trivia section of sabo

  • Sabo is similar to Sanji as...
  • Both were born into royal families and hated their royal status.
  • Both escaped their life of royalty and ended up having a preferred life (A revolutionary for Sabo, a cook for the Baratie and the Straw Hat Pirates for Sanji).
  • Both their fathers saw them as disappointments.
  • Both were forced to marry a woman of their parents choosing.
  • Both hated their siblings.
  • Both returned back to their royal status to prevent their loved ones from getting killed and were threatened by their fathers if they did not cooperate (Luffy and Ace for Sabo, Zeff for Sanji).
  • Both had something destroyed by their fathers when they were young (The drawing Sabo had made for his father, the food Sanji prepared for a mouse).
  • Both had pirates involved in their return to their royal status (The Bluejam Pirates for Sabo, the Big Mom Pirates for Sanji).
  • Both were locked up by their fathers for showing disgrace.

  • Satan represents opposition, just like Sanji who oppose his whole family.

First we know Oda has shown Sanji to be a goat (or ram) and God uses the goat to symbolize evil in numerous instances in the Bible. (This part about goats is quite long, but I think it describes Sanji very well.)

“And He [Christ] will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.” The sheep are then given eternal life, but the goats are cast into the Lake of Fire.

Interesting to note is that most of the time we see Zoro on the right side of Luffy and Sanji on his left. Sanji could be seen as Luffy’t “left hand man”.

What is it about goats that causes God to use them in such a negative light? Let’s look at some characteristics. Goats have many admirable qualities. They are intelligent, sensitive, playful, quick to respond to individual attention and affection.

But there are also many things to fear. They are experts in opening gates and squeezing through small gaps because they hate to be confined.

Consequently, goats are not very good followers. “Gregarious behavior” is a term that refers to the flocking or herding instinct which is found strongly in sheep, cattle, and horses. Again, this quality is rather weak in goats; they prefer leading or going off on their own.

The Goat is a sure-footed animal that is as much at home on mountain slopes and mountain tops as it is on flat ground. In this aspect, the Goat is a Symbol of agility

The male Goat, because of its reproductive prowess, is a Symbol of virility, vitality, potency, and stamina.

Medieval legends say that the Devil created the goat. Satan himself often appeared with goat’s horns, and sometimes changed his shape completely into a goat. The Devil having a goatee beard, like Sanji, is also very common…

So I’m sorry about this goat lecture, but does it not sound a lot like Sanji? Also we’ve of course heard both others and Sanji himself use the word devil to decribe himself.

Sanji also transformed into a devil and uses fire as a base of attacks and even uses names like Hell’s memories and Diable jambe.

Here he says he’ll become the Devil of the blue sea if Enel dares hurt Nami, not caring that he is a “God

the devil fruits pattern is pretty much Sanji’s eyebrows…)

“.

and sanji is the only one of his familys whose eyebrows curl the same way as the devil fruits swirls ( both of his eyebrows)

and through out the series sanji referred to/thought of himself as a prince 

image

RH negative bloodtype is said to be the royal blood since many members of royalty had that blood type (edit : and the vinsmokes are royalty) and satans nickname is the prince of darkness

edit:

the myth of Lucifer as the brightest angel who was punished by his tyrant father for not following his will, which is similar to Sanji´s backstory. Where s father (god), punishes and expels his son for not following his rules. This myth stems from the phenomena of the morning star: The planet Venus looks like shinniest star every morning later to be outshined by the Sun (god). By the way, Garuda ( Judge´s epithet) is said to represent the sun. So Father god/sun/Judge/ punished Lucifer/Venus/Sanji. That´s why Lucifer is known as "The fallen angel": and lucifer traditionally fell and became satan

and for sanjis connections to venus 

A lot of people don´t consider Lucifer as evil, because he opposed his tyrant father. The word Lucifer is taken from the latin which translates "shining one, son of dawn". He is associated to enlightment.

en . wikipedia . org/wiki/Satanism#Luciferianism

satan is traditionally associated with lucifer and sanji is associated with both parts satan and lucifer Luciferianism is a belief system that venerates the essential characteristics that are affixed to Lucifer. The tradition, influenced by Gnosticism, usually reveres Lucifer not as the devil, but as a liberator, a guardian or guiding spirit or even the true god as opposed to Jehovah. And that people should search for personal growth rather than following religious rules. ​ One of the traits of Sanji is his habit of smoking. Did you know that when the inquisition sent to jail the first spanish conquistador they saw smoking? They considered this newly brought habit from America to be someting demonic. to elaborate

satan had rebelled against god (his father/creator)  and didn’t do what his father (god ) wanted  he was not the way god wanted(he protested against him)  anbd wasn’t like the other angels ( the other angels obeyed what the father wanted)  and was cast out and imprisoned in hell it reminds me of  how sanji was imprisoned in a cell by his biological father for not being the way that his father wanted he wasn’t like his other siblings heck judge vinsmoke had as yonji said technology to do what could only be attributed to god himself. so you could link judge to god in a metaphorical sense along with how judge’s nickname was the garuda  which is linked to the heavens/ a hindu god

the Vinsmokes mainly have a “god theme” except for Sanji who has a devil theme(which makes sense as he is the “black sheep” of the vinsmoke family). The man on broccoli island basically said that Ichiji and Niji were gods ( or that they were helped by god)  and Judge’s epithet is “Garuda and he plays god

and oda has read comics and in media satan is portrayed as constantly wearing suit  with the appearance of high class  person  with and in dc when he got angry he burst into fire  tuurning redsimilar to how sanji gets when he gets angry. like on thriller bark

edit : ( from  @monkeydluffy19920     monkeydluffy19920 . tumblr . com/post/153038734935/respond-sanji-and-nami-a-devil-and-a-witch  post  and in this picture oda drew sanji with what looks like a pitchfork which satan is commonly portrayed as carrying it

“The link also tells about the Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s play “Faust” where Faust sells his soul to Devil to get information which meaned that Devil was a sophisticated gentleman. Physically Devil was in this play a long and slender man with small moustaches and wearing a fine suit.

I don’t know if it is just a coincidence but there are some similarities with Sanji and Faust’s “modern” Devil because the tall and slim cook is almost always wearing a suit and he is the strategist of the male crew members and what is more interesting, after timeskip Sanji has grew his goatee and a tiny moustaches.”@vally-00

lucifer morning star from marvel comics ( also oda had apprenticed under the manaka of rurouni kenshin who read marvel comics 1. They have a similar appearance. The have a gentleman/dandy man theme2. They are both very intelligent and cunning3. They both prefer "fancy" things : drinks, foods, clothes4. They both have a knight/chevalier theme.5. Just like Sanji , Lucifer also has a set of rules that he respects.

6. This is an angry Lucifer manifesting his rage

and this is an angry Sanji manifesting his rage

satan in revelations is described as a dragon and satan was a fallen seraphs which are compared to dragons and western dragons are conneccted to fire like sanji and zoro in the above pic is shown as an anthromorphic picture and in alot of imagery the tiger is described as going agaisnt the dragon or fighting him and zoro and sanji are rivalshttp://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TigerVersusDragon The Chinese have an interesting idiom; "the tiger and the dragon". This refers to two spirits so wildly different and yet at the same time similar, mortal enemies intricately linked together by destiny. Both the Dragon and the Tiger are Buddhist symbols, with the tiger lunging straight ahead to bulldoze through his opponents, while the dragon is revered more for patience and wisdom from which he then derives fighting power. With neither able to conquer the other, these kingly beasts represent a balance of power, "hard" and "soft" styles coming together to form a harmony between Yin and Yang. They can also be seen as the Dragon representing Spirit/Heaven, and the Tiger representing Matter/Earth.

edit: satan in dantes inferno is portrayed as having three heads ( and its fitting since there are 3 characters that allude to satan in a form doffy who alludes to lucifer separate from satan  and doffy is a foil/evil counterpart to sanji , sanji who represents the satan who was one and the same with lucifer, and blackbeard who represents a satan separate from lucifer

sanji is associated with the number 3

porche-chan . tumblr . com/post/138515824861/porche-chan-bonus-2-0-1-6-9-3-3#notes

“Bonus: 2 + 0 + 1 + 6 = 9 / 3 = 3″

sanji is the third strongest of the monster trio. and the third man to join luffys crew and usopp is a member of the weakling trio in fact he is the third strongest of the weakling trio ( the weakest) like how sanji is the third strongest of the monster trio )

and satan wasimprisoned by his father ( god ) in an area  that is filled with darkness 

and judges experiments on his children him making it so that they cant disobey him and his creation of clones could be considered judge playing god

and him designing his children so they cant disobey his orders add to that with the angels and how sanji was the only one who disobeyed him

and sanji specializes in aerial strikes

 and lucifer is connected to air

 sanji and Lucifer. Outcasted by his father because  he didnt want to follow his rules.His signature technique  is "Devil leg" and "Hell memories" is also important. 

so the monster trio are also the anti god trio they are all based after beings who opposed the gods which is fitting since celestial dragons call themselves gods

edit: 

sanji has connections to venus 

Venus is a virtual Hell. It is the hottest planet in our solar system, even though it isn’t even the closest to the sun. Venus is so hot, even lead metal will melt on its surface. Furthermore, a thick smoke-like atmosphere surrounds the planet. Lastly, Venus is named for the ancient Greek mythological goddess of love. This is a perfect trifecta for our fire-producing, cigarette-smoking, love-cook!

On a side note, Venus even loosely connects to Sanji’s “Secret” suitcase. In 1830, Venus was in conjunction with the sun; also, a famous sculpture of the goddess Venus was made. Oda does like his Easter eggs…

The axial tilt of Venus is 177.3

sanjis bounty  before dressrosa is 177,000,000 which matches planet rotation

and sanjis eyebrows before his gene modifications activated swirled clockwise and venus was the only planet  that rotated clockwise

what does this have to do with sanjis devil theme Lucifer. Lucifer is also said to be the Morning Star, which is Venus.
