Trivia[]
- Hermes, like the rest of his crewmates, was named after a god. In this case, it was the ancient Greek Hermes, the messenger of the gods; best known for his footwear that could allow him to travel almost anywhere. Hermes was made a Coronan with this name in mind, for the sake of irony; given Coronans have a demonic appearance to them, and yet the Greek Hermes was of heavenly origin.
- Likewise, as with the other Icarus Pirates, Hermes' position as the crew's thief was meant to reflect the real world Hermes' role as not only a divine messenger, but as a god of thieves. This also seemingly ties in well with Hermes' Coronan descent, given it makes him come off as a mischievous, trouble-making imp or spirit.
- Hermes' Grimary-powered skates are also a reference to the Greek Hermes.
- Hermes has a unique laugh, much like other One Piece characters. His laugh is "dasshushushushushu." "Dasshu" is the Japanese word for "dash;" a reference to Hermes' nigh-hyper personality and his speedy mannerisms and speech patterns.
- If Hermes was ever in an anime, Wyvern 0m3g4 decided that he would be played by Antony Del Rio in the English version. Antony is well known for playing roles such as Pit and Dark Pit from the video games, Kid Icarus: Uprising and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS. He has also played young Kratos from God of War: Ghost of Sparta.
- Hermes' birthday is October 8th. This was the day that legendary Japanese folk hero and ninja, Ishikawa Goemon died by being boiled alive. Goemon was a sort of Japanese Robin Hood; someone who stole from the nobility and shared the profit amongst the poor. This all ties into Hermes' thieving abilities as well as the fact the boiling water aspect could be a reference to Hermes' home of Corona.
