With this chapter (hopefully) one of the great debates in the community has come to a close
I’d say Zoro vs Sanji is next but that doesn’t really have a conclusion
Unlike Shanks vs Mihawk the argument isn’t centered around who’s stronger but how much stronger Zoro is than Sanji
And the 2...
I don't disagree I think Mihawk's feats are dogshit (mostly) relative to how strong he should be
But the narrative places him over Shanks like straight up. It isn't even something that can really be argued
Shanks is a swordsman and Mihawk is the strongest swordsman alive canonically
Unless...
What changes about Shanks' character after this chapter though?
If you don't like him for being a gary stu then you never should've liked him. If anything him being stronger than Mihawk would've played into that even more
Shanks the nearly untouched golden boy that's respected by everyone and...
Yeah but there's a pretty big difference between sticking around and enjoying the story through the eyes of a main character with lots of screentime and some development (Zoro) vs. a character like Shanks who before Elbaf showed up once every 300 chapters to say a cool one liner or style on...
Why does someone have to be top 1 for you to like them?
I don't really understand that. Did you only like Shanks for his strength?
Not that there's much else to like till we see more from him tbh
He's definitely a dickhead but he does feel like an evil morally corrupt version of Luffy
And that's not to say his crew didn't help at all. The Davy Back fights obligate you to help your new captain
But that also doesn't really mean you like them or agree with their ways either. Like...
BB feels like he took the cunning/bold half of Rocks and left everything else
Rocks almost feels like Luffy to me but he knows when to bide his time (confronted Imu then left instead of fighting them there)
He can be incredibly reckless but he's far from an idiot. He knew he would need a...
Yeah that makes sense. You can take solace in the fact that Kaido will still be stronger than 80-90% of top tiers
There’s just more of them and certain characters that I originally never envisioned getting to his level might actually reach it
Like I’ll be honest I never in my wildest dreams...
Yeah sadly that’s just how most of these series work
I know you’ve read ToG so it’s kinda similar to that
Characters like Yuri, Karaka, and Yu Hansung felt so threatening when they first showed up. They felt untouchable for the cast
Then you meet stronger rankers that show off (Maschenny...
Top tier is kinda like commander level earlier in the timeskip
At the beginning most people thought only a handful of characters were commander level and an even smaller handful would eventually reach commander level. Especially after seeing how much effort Luffy had to put in to defeat...
Yeah he’s pretty chill now though
Just drops no questions asked, provides extra details and corrects things if he’s wrong
Little to no ego unlike a certain other provider, never withholds leaks intentionally
I give Pew extra credit because of the brief summary but yeah WorstGenHQ is the best leaker we’ve had in years
Little to no bs, pretty much no ego, nearly leaks the whole chapter if you pay enough attention, if he drops hints they actually make sense (a literal picture of Davy Jones, a picture...
Worstgenhq says things like that based on what he believes
He may believe it'll cause an uproar within the community while that may not necessarily be the case
He's overexaggerated quite a few times before
Still the best leaker alongside Pew though
I wonder if the part they left out is Xebec being the former owner of Gryphon which is a supreme grade sword
Would be pretty cool if Shanks managed to get his hands on Xebec's old blade
