General & Others Why does Oda give Mihawk such little hype?

#82
Mihawk rivalry with Shanks was before he lost his Arm, 11 years ago. And that Shanks was weak enough to get his arm Chopped by a Seaking. After that, Shanks grew a lot Stronger and became a Yonko 6 years ago.

So Mihawk rivalled with Shanks who grew massively Stronger over 5 years. The Strongest enemy Mihawk faced till date is Vista and he requested postponement from him. So Mihawk is at best YC level, that is stronger than Doffy.
Mihawk maybe YC1 but not higher than that. Who says that Zoro could not have surpassed Mihawk at the end of his training. Never once, Zoro has expressed the desire to surpass Mihawk after the Timeskip.
More headcannon and lies.

WB called their battles legendary. He never spoken any other battle in that way. Not even Katakuri battles for considered to be legendary.

Nobody knows the last time Mihawk fought Shanks. We just now he won't fight the current Shanks because you doesn't consider him a worthy opponent. Databook tells us Mihawk is waiting for a swordsman stronger than Shanks. Clearly Mihawk is stronger than YC. He's Yonko level. Once we see his new bounty a lot of people are going to be butthurt because of how high it will be.

Mihawk has is his stupid title
What more does he need? He's confirmed stronger than Yonko

Is there any character besides Roger and Prime Whitebeard who is confirmed stronger than the yonko

@Tejas Zoro said he wanted to be the strongest swordsman in Dressrosa
The manga said Mihawk is the strongest Swordsman in Reverie

So... Whats up with that?

The world does not know what happened during Zoro's training

This is the definition of headcanon and wishful thinking. And as for as legendary battles, even Chinjao and Garp battles are called legendary.

The fact remains that Mihawk has not fought against anyone Stronger than Vista

Oda called Mihawk as legend, along with shanks and Rayleigh :kriwhat:
Oda even called Don Chinjao, legend.

The world didnt call mihawk the strongest swordsman. The narrator did. That wasnt dialogue from the story. It was Mihawk's character intro statement

Are you saying the Narrator is lying? or the narrator doesn't know who the actual strongest swordsman is?
Narrator even labelled Momonosuke as Kinemon son.

Mihawk is the guy who has to outperform everything that Zoro has faced before him. That is all you need to know.

Luffy > Zoro/Sanji (underlings) > mihawk, how important this guy could be?
Hey Erkek, just stopped by to show you correct ranking: Zoro>Mihawk>>>Luffy>~Sanji
You cannot put a kicker and a boxer in the same level as sword-wielding combat machines.

Because Luffy's underling Zoro will surpass this guy.

Luffy > Zoro/Sanji (underlings) > mihawk, how important this guy could be?

Oda closed the door for the last time in marineford battle (Chapter Name: 0561 - Luffy vs. Mihawk), he tried to hype mihawk by matching Luffy's Pre-TS version, because Luffy vs. mihawk will never happen again, Luffy's underlings will deal with him, just like WB's underlings Jozu and Vista dealt with him.

When Luffy fights the bosses like Shanks, Kaido or BB, Zoro or Sanji will beat mihawk, so mihawk can't be that important.
Zoro is fighting Kaido too. Which meand everything you just stated is nonsense.

Literally the only thing Mihawk has is his stupid title, and even then, the only time we see him fight another swordsman besides Zoro it’s a stalemate lol.

Meanwhile Oda continues to give Shanks, the other Yonko, and the admirals godly portrayal and hype in comparison to Mihawk.

Hell, even Marco has much greater hype than Mihawk.

Not mention Mihawk’s about to get defeated by an Admiral and saved by Shanks lol.

Why does Oda treat Mihawk like this?
When Mihawk went alone to an island occupied by the RHP, did he decline Shanks' challenge out of fear or because he deemed him unworthy after losing his arm? Because Vivre Card clearly suggests the later and only a brainless fool would think Mihawk was scared. So the title clearly isn't the only bit of portrayal standing for Mihawk, his rivalry with Shanks and Zoro's growth rate also hype him up since Zoro would be > Shanks when he defeats Mihawk. Even Zoro's blade that permanently scarred Kaido is inferior to Yoru and would need further upgrade to become on the same level.

YC1 is also the level of Beckman and Shiryu. I can see Shiryu more probably pushing Mihawk to a mid difficulty right now and Shanks to quite more, so either way this would be wrong at least posited by taking WSS into account.

You are wrong. WSS puts Mihawk only at YC level since the strongest opponent Mihawk faced is Vista and that was a tie.
Garp was training to beat Chinjao 10 years after Garp and roger beat Xebec, now you tell me if Chinjao should be considered legend or not :kriwhat:
Nope. Xebec was defeated by Garp, Roger and in fighting in his crew. Not Garp Solo.

Shanks never beats anyone though.
He only did some clashes like pratically every top tier in this series (we should consider to rename it One Clash :pepeke:)
