Character Discussion Why I hate Shanks, The Giga Gary Stu

Shanks meanwhile is a centrist who sits around doing nothing, ends wars he has no business ending


Shanks : saving millions
Lee : fuck him
What millions did Shanks save by ending the war? Lmfao

No matter which side won, there were definitely not millions of lives at stake lmfao. Here’s that Shanks fan delusion I was talking about.

If you want to talk about saving lives, abolishing the Shichibukai saved more lives than Shanks the centrist could ever pretend to save. Hell Doflamingo alone was funding wars in dozens of countries. Crocodile almost nuked a million people in Alubarna, Fujitora ensured that guys like these never come to power again.

And Fujitora did it in a believable way that never portrayed him as a Gary Stu with giants idolizing him, women falling over at his feet, or his enemies being afraid to even look in his direction.

Like I said, Fujitora is a believable character with real flaws whose good actions often come at the expense of his own honor. Shanks is a boring centrist drowning in pussy whose actions have no self-consequences or stakes, again because he is a poorly written fantasy that only retards believe in. Shanks is like when your retarded 10 year old brother starts banging two action figures together and then one of the action figures wins for no reason. The winning action figure is Shanks, just a child’s delusion.

Kuzan was a homeless 3 year old who drank booze

Meanwhile Shanks is wearing both Roger's hats eating chocolate atop the body of a hardworking marine


Mofos even brought a clown subordinate to entertain him.
Thank god for Gigabeard, the man who bitchslapped the hobo and designed his jolly roger
Bro you don’t even have memories as an infant wtf are you talking about.

Might as well say we don’t know the struggle Shanks had as a sperm cell

These posts took me out 😂

That Shanks is a kind of Gary Stu will fit perfectly when he is defeated by Blackbeard, a very imperfect being.:pepebusi:
I agree

People hate a fictional character because he doesn't have a sob backstory? Weird.
No I hate a fictional character because they’re a perfect self insert for the author’s wank fetishes

Let’s compare his backstory with every other top tier (Yonko/Admirals) in the story.

Whitebeard is an orphan that came from a war torn island that couldn’t afford the heavenly tribute.

Big Mom is literally a walking mental disaster that ate her child slaver mother.

Kaido was almost impressed into the military as a child soldier many times.

Blackbeard obviously had it rough.

Fujitora saw so much messed up stuff he blinded himself.

Greenbull literally has “double suicide”/“lover’s suicide pact” tattoo’d on his chest.

Akainu obviously had it rough.

Kizaru is shown with a broken lamp and studying in rags as a kid.

It’s implied that Aokiji had a brutal past that Garp saved him from.


And what backstory does Shanks have?
Celestial Dragon raised by the Pirate King with an endless supply of chocolate.

Literally the ultimate Gary Stue
Nah. Everybody knows that the real reason you hate Shanks because of how he made your fav twerk in fear

Even if Shanks is a Celestial Dragon what a nonsensical reason to hate a character. Not everyone needs a sob story to be a compelling character.

Shanks is great because he's an easy going guy who won't back down if someone weak or one of his friends are hurt. He's a beacon of good in a demo ruled by corrupt pirates like Big Mom, Kaido, and Blackbeard.
