Portgas D. Rouge is a female character in the anime and manga series One Piece. She is notable for being the lover of Gol D. Roger and the mother of Portgas D. Ace.
She was voiced by Yuki Minaguchi in Japanese and Taylor Anne Ramsey in English.
Appearance[]
Portgas D. Rouge was a tall, slender woman, with pale skin, below average sized breasts, (for One Piece standards), eyes that are red around the edges but black in the center, extremely long, silky, pink-blonde hair, and a red flower-ribbin in her hair. During her very few physical appearances in the story, she's always seen wearing a very long, white dress, which is so long that it completely covers her legs and feet.
Biography[]
While Roger was a notorious pirate and living his adventures, he seemed to deeply love Rouge above all else, since he actually had a child with her, one that he knew and cared about. Little is known about her, except that she lived on an island called Baterilla, which is also where she eventually died.
Rouge loved Roger so much that she cried upon hearing of his execution at the hands of the marines, and she loved Ace so much that she held him in her womb, through sheer willpower, for twenty months (1 year 8 months), so that the Marines wouldn't find out about him. Sadly, this caused her to die immediately after her son was born. She and Roger trusted Marine Vice Admiral Monkey D. Garp so much, despite his position, that they allowed him to take in Ace as his grandson, trusting that he wouldn't inform the Marines about Ace's true bloodline.
Trivia[]
- She is the first and so far only known female to have the initial "D" appear in her name.
- Her name appears to derive from the term "Jolly Roger", as one supposed origin of the word jolly roger was the words "jolie" and "rouge" (especially as her lover, Gol D. Roger, also has his name derived from this). "Rouge" is also the French word for "red".
- Not only is Ace named after the first ranked card in standard playing cards but "Rouge et Noir" (French red and black) is a name that several card games possess.
