Anime & Manga One Piece Spoilers - The Waiting Room

[YonkoGodLuffy]

Genuinely after this, the idea that shanks is secretly a villain who’s going to try and stop Luffy from becoming PK no longer made any sense lmao

Shanks doesn't need to be a evil villain to be a serious fight for Luffy, Kizaru made this clear, it doesn't make sense to some people due to agendas it would ruin

Luffy is fighting Shanks.
Shanks doesn't need to be a villain for it.
Luffy made a promise to Shanks that he would gather a crew that wouldn't lose to Shanks', and he would claim the One Piece.
Shanks declared he's going after the One Piece.

Think Joey Wheeler vs Yugi duel. They aren't enemies, but they had to clash against each other with everything they got for their own goals.

It's not rocket science.


Teach still killing Shanks, though.

 

[Bisoromi Bear]

Isn't Kidd canonnically a scumbag who bullies the weaker pirates and killed citizens?

Shanks has literal weaklings on his fleet Kidd was ready to bully

Don't debate Kidd with ghostly. It's pointless to convince someone with his level of fanboyism.

Or he just has his own set of morals and goals for One Piece lol. Antagonism doesnt mean villainy. Shanks is an obvious harbinger of peace, and he's also extremely violent on the flipside of that when he deals with shit.

We dont know what he wants. And the fact that Oda doesnt blatantly say what he wants tells you that he's not really on Luffy's side wholesale.

 

[Kurozumi Wiwi]

Tbh I think Shanks also has normal crews with him, read the bottom of this page

I'm mostly against the notion of Kid being a bully in this specific scene. He went against someone stronger than him and got his ass kicked, no need to make it worse.

The difference is Joey never sacrificed himself for Yugi, Shanks’ dream seemingly relies on Luffy as he said he made a bet on Luffy since chapter 1. So fighting against his own bet wouldn’t make much sense to me at all.

We know that whatever he wants relies on Luffy to make it happen, that’s why he made the bet on Luffy when he was a child.

He’s fully on Luffys side, he has never shown any signs of antagonism for Luffy, rather he’s shown joy and pride in his bet paying off.

Sumo wrestler zoro can certain one armed replicate this

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1833200200938037669

This, even tho it's only filler, proves swordsmen are superior fighters than others. Zoro could just punch the shit out of people with adv CoC or adv CoA. But no.
Sophisticated as bro is, he uses 3 (!) stubborn pieces of metal and channels his haki through them. It's like the enemies don't deserve his touch

Strongest og Shichibukai:

Mihawk
Boa

Kuma
Doflamingo
Crocodile

These poor kids are about to get hit with the biggest internet bullying we've ever seen.

He is betting on Luffy making it to the end with him. Whether thats:

- To test him
- To use him for good reasons (i.e. benefit Luffy)
- To use him for his own reasons (benefit himself but still achieve good results)
- Pure Evil bullshit

It doesnt mean that Shanks doesnt want to fight Luffy. He clearly wants to fight Luffy lol, and vice versa. You can get that blatantly from the art.

I use my PFP as a constant reminder of this. Characters do not have to hate each other to fight each other. Look at Whitebeard and Roger.

 

[straightforward]

Plot twist: Pranks spoke to the Gorosei. Shanks is not a snitch. Y'all's whole hate anti Shanks campaign is based on nothing. Cope,seethe, mald.

snitch told sengoku who ace's parents were ('because it's you'). he will always be a snitch, even if he didn't go to the lorosei that one time.

Okay bro suit yourself

Lets come up with excuses for this then:

But sure lets keep ignoring this lol

Luffy isn't going to fight Shanks

Cope hater

 

[BestGen]

Hawkeye is not a bad guy and also trained zoro, but zgirls want him to be his last fight
But Shanks can't fight Luffy
Insecurity and cope at its best

 

[Thaidakar]

I'd rather get the plague from Shanks than being associated with Shidd
