Damn, this is what I came back for! Hoping Oda delivers and we don’t get shafted on Mihawk’s backstory. So tired of haters saying shit like he’s just a plot device and he only exists to be defeated by Zoro. If that’s the case, why all the scenes showing his bond with Perona? Why show him...

I love Steven John Ward. So funny and charismatic and very engaged with fans on social media and at various international conferences. I hope his actor keeps this up and his popularity carries him to a bigger role for Mihawk in season 2.

I suspect Kuma and Mihawk might have some kind of relationship given Kuma’s religion and Mihawk’s cross symbolism. Also the fact that he’s the only inhabitant of Kuraigana and therefore the only person Kuma could have asked about the cure. About Mihawk not reacting to Kuma at Marineford, I...

Damn, wishing this was canon. Kuma telling Mihawk that he wants to cure his daughter while Mihawk guides him to the castle library which has medical books, realising that Kuma’s ‘tyrant’ label is just government propaganda. Please Oda make this a thing. What do you guys think about the...

The OPLA subreddit released a survey across 19,000 new and existing OP fans and the results just came in. Mihawk was the new audience’s favourite character with 70% of the vote for best pirate captain, even though he’s not even a captain! Mihawk was also ranked 2nd by the established OP fan...

Aaaahhh this is exactly what I was hoping for. I’ve watched quite a few non-anime fan reaction videos of the LA and while the series isn’t perfect for many manga readers, casuals are lapping it up and the reaction to Mihawk has been almost universally positive. I’m glad there’s been enough fan...

Definitely. I’ve seen many manga readers accuse Mihawk of being ‘boring’ or ‘edgy’ when he’s actually quite expressive, for example when he cut Zoro down and when he was left speechless by Perona’s goodbye. The LA really showed off the essence of his character by having him taunt Garp, snidely...

Live action Mihawk is amazing. Both casuals and hardcore fans of the series are raving about his casting and acting. Matt Owens is a huge Mihawk fan and it shows - the series near-perfectly captured Mihawk’s sassiness and his status as a true wildcard that not even the most powerful organisation...

Y’all need to take a look at the social media reactions to the live action Mihawk. Complete casuals absolutely love him and have praised him alongside Coby, Zeff and Garp as one of the best side characters of the series. I’ve even seen some people calling for LA Mihawk spin-offs. Our boy is...

A historical Chinese or Japanese palace drama

Idk if true because Steven Ward is a bit of a troll, but Matt Owens, the showrunner, was previously on the Reverie stream saying that he also thought Shanks was stronger, but he likes Mihawk more as a character and in fact Mihawk, as well as Ward’s portrayal of him, was his favourite part of the...

I wasn’t going to watch the LA but I am now… just the episodes with Zoro and Mihawk. They knocked Mihawk’s casting out of the park, I’m just hoping the actor has great on screen chemistry with Zoro and faithfully portrays one of the most (if not the most) iconic fight in the series. Not sure if...

I don’t mind waiting for Mihawk to do something. Feat scaling is a thing and Oda is addicted to cliffhangers and dramatic double page spreads. The longer we wait, the more likely Oda is to give Mihawk an extra spectacular feat that tops previous on-panel feats for the wow factor. Seriously...

Roronoa Zoro ----------- 11 Dracule Mihawk -------------18

Nothing that interesting. The quote above his head is from Marineford, where he asks fate how Luffy will escape his black blade. The description reads: One of the Seven Warlords who participated in the Summit War. He is the World’s Strongest Swordsman, also known as “Hawk Eyes”, the man who is...

Roronoa Zoro ----------- 23 Dracule Mihawk -------------24 Shimotsuki Ryuma -----------------25 Issho Fujitora -----------------6

I've been looking into Matt Owens, the showrunner of the live action One Piece and my god, he is one of us. A real Godhawk enthusiast who cited Mihawk's introduction as one of the three central scenes he wanted to portray...

I saw the trailer for the live action and it was… rough. The actors seemed to be doing the best with what they had but the general whackiness of OP does not translate well to live action and CGI. That said, Mihawk has the perfect balance of colourful design, snark and badassery that comes off...

A brief translation of this Twitter guy drawing connections between Mihawk and Imu: Is Mihawk a character hinting towards Imu? Dracule = Imu being a blood sucking demon? Kokutou Yoru = Imu’s yoru (night) imagery? Mihawk seated with the sword on his back = the image of the Empty Throne? Mi...

The Ray/Shakky/Mihawk theory is quite popular and stems from Mihawk wearing the same jacket pattern and high-collared style as young Rayleigh during the Edd War. Shakky also said that she quit piracy 40 years before the start of the series which would fall around Mihawk’s birthdate. She also...
