[edit] Appearance
Doberman has many X-shaped scars on his face and neck. His left eye is blank without any iris. Due to way Doberman is drawn in the manga, it looks as if his left eye is completely missing with only an open eye socket in it's place. His marine coat is red and the stripes across his cap are in a zig-zag pattern.
In the anime, Doberman is initially shown with his cap's shadow covering his supposedly empty left eyesocket. Later in the anime, Doberman is just shown with having two perfectly normal eyes. Also, the shape of his head and nose has changed rapidly during the one episode where his two versions are seen.
[edit] History
[edit] Enies Lobby Buster Call
Vice Admiral Doberman was present at the Enies Lobby Buster Call. There he told his men about Rob Lucci's past. He possessed a firm belief that as long as "that man is here, to assist in the escorting of Nico Robin, there is no need for us to act."
He also apparently saw through Spandam's lie, that Admiral Aokiji ordered to attack Nico Robin, but did nothing against it.
[edit] Marineford arc
He is later seen slicing up cannon fire and preparing to battle against the divisions of the Whitebeard Pirates.
[edit] Anime and Manga Differences
In the anime, he is seen arguing with one of his subordinates over the fact that Rob Lucci killed all 500 hostages on the spot and even went so far to point to the Japanese symbol for "justice" on the back of his coat, saying that "justice isn't child's play". No such scene is found anywhere in the manga.
Though he is distinctly shown to have one blind eye, several caps (like the one in this article) show him with two normal eyes.
[edit] Trivia
- None of the Buster Call Vice-Admirals were named until the Yellow Data Book
