Little Oars Jr. seems to be a very caring and kind person at heart. As shown in flashbacks, he was carefree and appreciated the little things in life, such as the straw hat Ace made for him. He is also shown to be very determined and loyal, as demonstrated when he went straight through enemy lines to rescue Ace, despite being hit by Kuma's Ursus Shock, impaled by Gekko Moriah's Tsuno-Tokage and having one of his legs severed by Doflamingo. This mirrors his ancestors determination and endurance, but contrasts with his brutal, ruthless nature.
