He's definitely turning more and more into a Gary Stu. The editor suggesting he lose his arm was one of the best decisions
made in hindsight. Although I do like that Oda is still making them look like ruthless Pirates that don't play around at least. :endthis:

It's inevitable. People been waiting for this dude for 20+ years so Oda has to deliver. He and his wanked crew surely won't get humiliated or lose in the first on-screen battle, it makes no sense.

The fight being competitive is still regarded as a loss for majority of the fanbase so i dunno what Oda is doing here.

Lol what drugs are you on? Lhanks is the most dicksucked character by Oda. Everytime he appears on screen is about how cool he is and how we should give a shit about him (we should not)

You and the other guy are both missing the point. Him losing an arm and being bullied both happened not because Shanks was weak to stop it from happening. Both of those happened because Shanks let them happen. Shanks could have easily scared away the bandits or protected his arm through haki. But Shanks let those happen voluntarily. Reason? Because Shanks is so cool and badass and he will forgive everything. He gave away his arm because he is so cool and flawless and doesn't need an arm at all!!!!

does not even come close to Oden wank

Oden as 14yr old was fucking other men’ wives and daughters and they still loved him.
He did nothing but let kaido control wano and die like a retard and yet he’s the first history topic in wano schools

But that is different from a true Mary Sue, try to watch/read Sword art online or Solo leveling, those MCs are true Mary Sue, whatever they do they are perfect and everybody around them is just there to chant their greatness. Shanks for sure has some elements of a Mary Sue but a plethora of other characters are likewise: Luffy and he being the 2nd coming of Jesus, Zoro who throws one liners, can't lose due to his promise. Shanks after all lost his arm to a fodder sea monster. Just look at all the banter he get from admiral fans: snitch, lord of the coast>Shanks, does nothing but parties, called useless by Mihawk etc. A Mary Sue would humiliate all of them, regrow a super duper legendary new arm and so on. He has elements of a Mary Sue but he is not one. Look at Luffy to see the closest example in One piece.

What's a "mary sue"? A char that's too perfect? Then Luffy's the best example. He may be flawed on paper cause he's dumb and selfish but those aren't real flaws if they don't rly affect the story. They're only there to make him funnier and more entertaining.

Shanks not havin flaws doesn't mean much when he barely got screentime and char development. WB's a better example imo.

Luffy’s actions/decisions always affect the story. Read again.

I said his dumbness/selfishness barely affects the story, not his actions/decisions in general. His flaws are there for comedy value mostly.

I'm not countin things like him punching a CD cause that's not meant to portray his flaws but his qualities.
Luffy and Zoro are the mary sues in the crew, they never do anythijg wrong.
Other mary sues are Mihawk, Shanks, Kobi.

The worst part is when he popped out of nowhere and stopped the War. Shanks had no chance to win against all the remaining force of Marines but he still managed to stop the war for some reason.
Because it was out of respect and there was a theme already discussed that the Marines won and werr going too far. He stopped Akainu from killing Koby for a reason.

Do you guys even read the story lol

Shanks has to be the biggest mary sue in One Piece. There has never been a more "can do no wrong" character who always has to look cool and can never have flaws than Shanks. He has never lost a fight onscreen. Hell, he has never even had to sweat onscreen, against formidable opponents like Kaido, Whitebeard or Akainu. His face is always perfectly drawn, he has groupies surrounding him. Every named character loves him, except the ones we aren't supposed to root for, and the author constantly sucks his dick. Biggest author's pet in the story. He makes Oden look like an underdog by comparison.
first research the difference between Gary Stu and mary sue
then cry about why Shanks is by far greatest

Oden is biggest Gary Stu but he's a flashback character
