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

[Finalbeta]

but he is the boogeyman to the whitebeard pirates. pure terror.

Well I can see him as most likely capable to defeat Marco but that's it overall.

mihawk couldn't defeat vista. and jozu blocked his supposedly whitebeard level attack.

“Little hype”
There’s no shortage of hype with Mihawk. Every time he has been shown doing something, characters around him have been drawn shook and in awe lol.

So that the doubters have enough time to sabotage themselves.

Mods should have locked up the thread after this.

For the longest time all Roger had was his title of Pirate King. He didn't get a single on panel feat until 960 chapters in....didn't stop people from calling him the strongest that whole time but so many gymnastics for Mihawk.

Roger also never looked bad on screen like Mihawk did.

 

[GreenEggsAHam]

but ignore Kizaru's beams towards Whitebeard getting blocked by Marco.
In addition, Kizaru gets attacked by Marco and gets sent flying (although he was undamaged), this doesn't happen with Mihawk.

Yeah thats the thing, an intangible being needed barrier haki just to stand a chance against that attack, whilst jozu just uses his regular body with barrier haki for mihawk trash slash
dont get me wrong tho Akaniu>Greenbull>Kizaru>Mihawk>Aokiji~Fujitora

Vista and ending the duel in an equal position but ignore that Aokiji v Jozu was pretty much the same thing until Jozu got distracted by Whitebeard's heart attack which let Aokiji get the free hit on Jozu. People also fail to bring up Aokiji and Ace clashing equally with named attacks of their own (understandably, because of their Devil Fruits).

Aokiji using one of his lower-end attacks vs ace higher ends attack thats a good feat to me, Aokiji giving jozu visibile damage before the heart attack? the same jozu that tanked mihawk slash

Or shall we forget it was a 2v1???
Should we also forget you can always bring up bad portrayal for the admirals but they all got theirs against someone stronger than mihawk, Whitebeard
Mihawk=>Fuji will be coming soon, Zoro will face fuji as the worlds strongest swordsmen

When has Mihawk looked bad? He looked better than Big Mom who still gets called a top tier.

Mihawk getting stalled and literally agreeing to postpone his fight against vista. Compared to a weakened big mom fighting queen it’s plain as day different

And when did mihawk look bad?
WB is look bad much worse than Mihawk regardless both is restricted by the plot.

Franky ran over BM in her face dude, that is much worse than Mihawk, and i can keep go on if you'd like.

roger died to fodder
what about sane big mom getting run over by franky speed blitz by brook flipped by jinbe and rolled by robin

The Mihawk ad nasuem won’t come to an official end for another 3 years then. Though that just goes to show the overvaluing of feats which is another reason Mihawk power scaling is the izanagi-izanami of One Piece discussions.

 

[Tejas]

Suffering from success of getting postponement from Vista.

Fixed.

The question is when did Mihawk look good?

 

[Finalbeta]

mihawk couldn't defeat vista. and jozu blocked his supposedly whitebeard level attack.

And Kizaru could not afford killing Luffy. Was he barely stronger than him?

PIS, this unknown matter.

Also Mihawk wasn't trying much, he didn't unleash named attacks.

 

[Monkey D Luffy]

LOL, Weevil has more hype than him.
that dude has the whitebeard pirates hiding.

he doesn't sail under a black flag. so he's technically not.

And WG saying he is a pirate lol. Your words against WG words... I take WG.

Vista, Vista, Vista...that's all people think about....no characterization, no in-universe narrative, just subjective(and wrong) powerlevels.....

-BM didn't one shot Brooke and got her homie injured
-At her max speed for outrun by a tree
-didnt knocked Capone after multiple punches
-Ran over by Franky and bruised
-blitzed by Brooke
-Tossed by Jinbe
-bowling balled by Robin
-skull cracked by Queen
-Still gets called a top tier

Mihawk not insta killing Vista due to his blatant characterization and calling it off cause of the Siege Walls however....that is what's pathetic lol

 

[draganax]

whilst jozu just uses his regular body with barrier haki for mihawk trash slash

what's funny is that mihawk said: "i want to measure the difference in strength between him(aka whitebeard) and i" so that was probably hi strongest slash.

 

[Warchief Sanji D Goat]

Even Boa and Doflamingo got better hype than Mihawk.

 

[Haoshoku]

[GreenEggsAHam]

Spoiler

Going off the vivre card of Meme, mihawk is stronger than her

 

[Minatoze Narutomaki]

You are wrong. WSS puts Mihawk only at YC level since the strongest opponent Mihawk faced is Vista and that was a tie.

Nope. Xebec was defeated by Garp, Roger and in fighting in his crew. Not Garp Solo.

So what does that make Garp then, a cabin boy who became hero of marine for doing nothing against Xebec ? and 10 years later when he had become even stronger he trained for defeating chinjao...
you are just trying to belittle Mihawk even if he is named along with Shanks and Rayleigh, I guess you can even claim Garp was weaker than PT Gear 3rd Luffy when he trained for Chinjao and that means Legend is nothing, its everything for Shanks but nothing for Mihawk even when used in same sentence
