There's a new ending?! I had no idea tbh! I'm still obsessed on the last one, the full version is INCREDIBLE and I love the music video to it too! Very relatable song...

OH, this one is nice too! That vocal lift is so nice! I legit got MAJOR chills, proper tingles when I heard it! What a beautiful song! I can't wait for the full version of this song now too! It sounds like an AOT ending song or FMA one for example, just off the top of my head, its very nice!

Thank you for showing me this and its great to see you again too!

Ah im glad to hear! I can see Mihawk being into meditation which makes this very fitting too haha! I really should try it, I keep rejecting it and not giving it enough chances/effort to work, I really envy that sense of inner peace, calmness, all rounded self assurance/comfort and a somewhat stoic resolve at least people have, when they meditate regularly.

Ahh thats understandable, I hope you are able to suceed in the exam regardless though! Hopefully you will perform well in it!

Aye thats true too, Im just frustrated as hes letting Shanks and Garp show off with named moves now but he wont do the same for Mihawk and Dragon, still making them stand and sit around and do nothing generally lol. I do appreciate Oda making him say he thinks Yonko titles are below him and keeping his character consistent too.

I would have preferred it if he got involved with hunting some Marines like he used to though, just hunting them for fun like in the old days and trying to find a strong oppontent, ideally who would be Fujitora and they could have a great fight and Oda would remember Fujitora exists and give him a new plotline finally lmao.

I've given up on Bogard though, apparently he wasnt named in the manga even and hasnt appeared for an extremely long time now too? I would have loved to see how he compares to Mihawk too and jut give Mihawk some actual strong swordsmen to fight already lol. Still mad that Oda didnt even reference Mihawk at Wano, not even Kaido mentioned him and given its the land of Swordsmen/Samurai, it drives me mad that Mihawk has never come up there, not even mentioned by Zoro as far as I remember.

At least hes brought him back with Cross Guild and giving him screentime so I can't fuss too much ofc, it feels really weird to see him even get screentime and more than just a panel or two as well. I just pray we dont have too much longer of a wait to see him in action finally and kicking some ass lol. I'm dying to know what named attacks he would have too!

I asked this AI chatbot to invent some named attacks for him and a few of them are decent:

Dracule Mihawk, also known as "Hawk Eyes," is one of the strongest characters in the One Piece universe and possesses incredible swordsmanship skills. Here are some named attacks that he could use:
  1. Black Sword: This is Mihawk's signature attack, where he imbues his sword with his Haki, making it turn black and increasing its cutting power tremendously.
  2. Kokuto Issen (Black Blade Flash): Mihawk unleashes a swift and powerful slash with his black sword, capable of cutting through almost anything in its path.
  3. Yoru Saisei (Resurrection of the Night): Mihawk charges his sword with Haki and releases a powerful shockwave that cuts through the air, creating a wave of destruction in its path.
  4. Kokuto Iai (Black Blade Draw): Mihawk sheaths his sword and quickly unsheaths it, delivering a swift and deadly attack in one fluid motion.
  5. Taka no Me (Hawk's Eye): Mihawk focuses his Haki into his eyes, allowing him to see his opponent's movements and predict their attacks with incredible accuracy.
  6. Kokujo O Tatsumaki (Black Blade Tornado): Mihawk twirls his sword at high speed, creating a massive tornado that sucks in everything in its path and cuts them to pieces with the black sword.
  7. Kokuto Nitoryu (Black Blade Two Swords Style): Mihawk wields two swords with incredible proficiency, unleashing a barrage of deadly attacks on his opponent.
  8. Kokuto no Yoru: Mihawk's most powerful attack, where he unleashes the full power of his black sword, capable of cutting through even the strongest of defenses with ease.

It messed up massively with no 1 and 7, turning his already black sword black lol and two sword style?! LOLWUT?! But I really like numbers 3 and 5, number 4 is that samurai/Japanese technique too which is pretty awesome, Iaido I think? Like Kaido with an I instead of a K? Lol. Number 2 I think is a move of his from Pirate Warriors games or simillar, the name of it I mean.

I tried a different prompt this time too, with some more specific requests and this is what I got too:

I really like these ones tbh^! What do you think of them? @wordy I'd love to get your opinion on these too! Or any ideas you or @roronoa_fan may have for him too ofc!

I also got the bot to design a backstory for him, based on my own personal handcanons too. Its pretty cliche but I still quite like it too. I'm sure Oda could come up with something better or the bot could with the right prompts/idea too ofc:
It’s also great to see you again!

I can relate with what you are saying because Oda keeps him out of spotlight but remember one thing.

In the end of the day OP is literally a business. Even if Oda doesnt "care" about Mihawk like some people think, his supervisors/editors will not let him to make him look bad because Zoro's popularity is #2 worldwide with millions upon millions of fans.

Its all about money.
Aye thats true and a great point. Ironically we rely on Zoro and thus Zoro wank is Mihawk wank and they will ensure Mihawk shines to benefit Zoro too.

Thanks man, that makes a lot of sense!

REJECT HORNIE EMBRACE ALEXANDER THE GREAT

"The speech which I am about to deliver will not be for the purpose of checking your start homeward, for, so far as I am concerned, you may depart wherever you wish; but because I wish you to know what kind of men you were originally and how you have been transformed since you came into our service.

"In the first place, as is reasonable, I shall begin my speech from my father Philip. For he found you vagabonds and destitute of means, most of you clad in hides, feeding a few sheep up the mountain sides, for the protection of which you had to fight with small success against Illyrians, Triballians, and the border Thracians.

"Instead of the hides he gave you cloaks to wear, and from the mountains he led you down into the plains, and made you capable of fighting the neighbouring barbarians, so that you were no longer compelled to preserve yourselves by trusting rather to the inaccessible strongholds than to your own valour. He made you colonists of cities, which he adorned with useful laws and customs; and from being slaves and subjects, he made you rulers over those very barbarians by whom you yourselves, as well as your property, were previously liable to be plundered and ravaged.

"He also added the greater part of Thrace to Macedonia, and by seizing the most conveniently situated places on the sea-coast, he spread abundance over the land from commerce, and made the working of the mines a secure employment. He made you rulers over the Thessalians, of whom you had formerly been in mortal fear; and by humbling the nation of the Phocians, he rendered the avenue into Greece broad and easy for you, instead of being narrow and difficult.

"The Athenians and Thebans, who were always lying in wait to attack Macedonia, he humbled to such a degree,—I also then rendering him my personal aid in the campaign,—that instead of paying tribute to the former and being vassals to the latter, those States in their turn procure security to themselves by our assistance.

"He penetrated into the Peloponnese, and after regulating its affairs, was publicly declared commander-in-chief of all the rest of Greece in the expedition against the Persian, adding this glory not more to himself than to the commonwealth of the Macedonians. These were the advantages which accrued to you from my father Philip; great indeed if looked at by themselves, but small if compared with those you have obtained from me.

"For though I inherited from my father only a few gold and silver goblets, and there were not even sixty talents in the treasury, and though I found myself charged with a debt of 5OO talents owing by Philip, and I was obliged myself to borrow 800 talents in addition to these, I started from the country which could not decently support you, and forthwith laid open to you the passage of the Hellespont, though at that time the Persians held the sovereignty of the sea.

"Having overpowered the viceroys of Darius with my cavalry, I added to your empire the whole of Ionia, the whole of Aeolis, both Phrygias and Lydia, and I took Miletus by siege. All the other places I gained by voluntary surrender, and I granted you the privilege of appropriating the wealth found in them.

"The riches of Egypt and Cyrene, which I acquired without fighting a battle, have come to you. Coele-Syria, Palestine, and Mesopotamia are your property. Babylon, Bactra, and Susa are yours. The wealth of the Lydians, the treasures of the Persians, and the riches of the Indians are yours; and so is the External Sea.

"You are viceroys, you are generals, you are captains. What then have I reserved to myself after all these labours, except this purple robe and this diadem?

"I have appropriated nothing myself, nor can any one point out my treasures, except these possessions of yours or the things which I am guarding on your behalf.

"Individually, however, I have no motive to guard them, since I feed on the same fare as you do, and I take only the same amount of sleep. Nay, I do not think that my fare is as good as that of those among you who live luxuriously; and I know that I often sit up at night to watch for you, that you may be able to sleep."

But some one may say, that while you endured toil and fatigue, I have acquired these things as your leader without myself sharing the toil and fatigue. But who is there of you who knows that he has endured greater toil for me than I have for him? Come now, whoever of you has wounds, let him strip and show them, and I will show mine in turn; for there is no part of my body, in front at any rate, remaining free from wounds; nor is there any kind of weapon used either for close combat or for hurling at the enemy, the traces of which I do not bear on my person.

For I have been wounded with the sword in close fight, I have been shot with arrows, and I have been struck with missiles projected from engines of war; and though oftentimes I have been hit with stones and bolts of wood for the sake of your lives, your glory, and your wealth, I am still leading you as conquerors over all the land and sea, all rivers, mountains, and plains. I have celebrated your weddings with my own, and the children of many of you will be akin to my children.

Moreover I have liquidated of all those who had incurred them, without inquiring too closely for what purpose they were contracted, though you received such high pay, and carry off so much booty whenever there is booty to be got after a siege. Most of you have golden crowns, the eternal memorials of your valor and of the honor you receive from me. Whoever has been killed has met with a glorious end and has been honored with a splendid burial.

Brazen statues of most of the slain have been erected at home, and their parents are held in honor) being released from all public service and from taxation. But no one of you has ever been killed in flight under my leadership. And now I was intending to send back those of you who are unfit for service, objects of envy to those at home; but since you all wish to depart, depart all of you!

Go back and report at home that your king Alexander, the conqueror of the Persians, Medes, Bactrians, and Sacians; the man who has subjugated the Uxians, Arachotians, and Drangians; who has also acquired the rule of the Parthians, Chorasmians, and Hyrcanians, as far as the Caspian Sea; who has marched over the Caucasus, through the Caspian Gates; who has crossed the rivers Oxus and Tanais, and the Indus besides, which has never been crossed by any one else except Dionysus; who has also crossed the Hydaspes, Acesines, and Hydraotes, and who would have crossed the Hyphasis, if you had not shrunk back with alarm; who has penetrated into the Great Sea by both the mouths of the Indus; who has marched through the desert of Gadrosia, where no one ever before marched with an army; who on his route acquired possession of Carmania and the land of the Oritians, in addition to his other conquests, his fleet having in the meantime already sailed round the coast of the sea which extends from India to Persia - report that when you returned to Susa you deserted him and went away, handing him over to the protection of conquered foreigners.

Perhaps this report of yours will be both glorious to you in the eyes of men and devout I ween in the eyes of the gods. Depart!
