Uh actually since you're okay with using film red as canon, then you should note that Big Mom was alive and well in that movie.

So I guess everyone who is calling Shanks a celestial is okay with Big Mom surviving Akainu's strongest attack whilst sleeping? Yes?
Since Stampede Oda picks and chooses what he wants to be cannon in the movie.

In Stampede only Laugh Tale was canon.

Figarlands are canon tho.


Bruh. He didn't tell people working on RED to give Shanks "Figarland" backstory just to not use it in the manga and name other characters Figarlands.

If Big Mom survived Magma pool she was saved by BMP sitting under the waterfall and probably took Kaido's soul to survive.

So ur wank attempt "surviving Akainu's strongest attack whilst sleeping" is lmfao.

You finished that on your own lol
The Admiral loses his job and becomes an outlaw, wether he gets captured by the WG or not is a different story.
If he does get captured then the fodder executioners would do.
These guys act like being a criminal is something everybody wants.

Why are people scared to talk shit to their superiors? Because they will murder them or because they will lose their job? Marines aren't bums like these pirates they have a job to do.

Losing their position is a big enough reason not to act out of line. Ignoring the whole executioner dilemma like that even matters, being captured is the problem and there are other Admirals and soldiers who would be willing to do that job.

Lmfao
Didn't expect the cope to be this bad. This is probably the best thing to happen to Shanks' character writing wise, but I guess it does carry along with it some ridicule from the community by default.

Oh and btw, Shanks is a CD princess torn between the love of his holiness Garling and the man who brought him up, Roger.
:shocking:

@EmperorKinyagi was right all along.

Shanks is the definition of Gary Stu.
you don't understand! he's the unbelievably handsome, most knowledgeable and extraordinarily kind gatekeeper who refuses to attack anyone before consulting his opponent's general practitioner, who is adored and respected by everyone including young impressionable women (makino), baby killers (sengoku), giants (dorry and broggy), children (luffy), clowns (buggy), senior citizens (gorosei), pirate kings (roger) and birds (mihawk), who inherited roger's wardrobe and weapons to signify his status as the pirate king's true heir (fuck ace), whose favorite hobby is saving people from drowning or being eaten by sea kings, who mastered the art of teleportation just so he could stop wars and bloodshed all over the world, who is the most generous guest bringing the most expensive liquor as a gift, whose diplomacy skills leave reverend doctor otohime in the dust, who can telepathically stop aggressive worshippers of the evil celestial dragons from committing atrocities, who understands the importance of healthy lifestyle choices so well that he wouldn't be caught dead propagating smoking on panel (eww, sanji, you should be ashamed of yourself!), who asked teach to scar him so that bad-looking people wouldn't feel too bad about their looks, who is always wearing rags so that those poorer than him wouldn't feel like losers, who has chosen to be an animal rights pioneer by offering a top position on his crew to monster (a monkey), who makes sure his crew always have something to eat, who swims like a dolphin and who laughs like the sun if it were given a voice - and he couldn't bear the thought of a single innocent person suffering (who's who doesn't count). he saved elbaf, and by proxy, the entire world from an imminent magnetic apocalypse and even the name of his world-saving move - divine departure - signifies his saintliness.

and his sweatdrops sparkle more brightly than the diamonds in the treasure chest in which he was found as a child! :luffydab:

Sounds like a classic case of ''the movie is only canon if it suits my agenda'' :milaugh:

If you're using the movie, accept it all or your position is weak.

Um no. Oda specifically selects what to use or not in the movie.

Figarlands are canon.

Big Mom is dead or crippled for life. She ain't relevant anymore.

@Admiral Maynard all you have to do is go into your keyboard settings and set an auto correct macro. Mine is so that whenever I type “Shanks” my phone auto corrects it into Celestial Dragon Shanks lol. That way I have to make a conscious effort to lie about Celestial Dragon Shanks being honorable or meritous or whatever other lies Celestial Dragon Shanks fans spread lol.

Also, the Admirals being stronger than the Gorosei while Celestial Dragon Shanks is not is not a contradiction. You see, the Gorosei probably rose to their ranks by merit (IE their strength) so that would make them stronger than other Celestials like Celestial Dragon Shanks by default. However, the Admirals sit at the top of the WG strength hierarchy by default.

So by definition, the WG Strength hierarchy is Admirals > Gorosei > other Celestial Dragons like Papa Figarland and little baby Figarland Jr (Celestial Dragon Shanks).

More headcanon

You can't think without powerscaling, no?!:kobeha:

X character >>Y character ≥ Z character is all your brain can produce
Daddy Garling has access to all Holy Knights, maybe all Seraphims, all Admirals and arguably could talk Imu into borrowing Mother Flame for a while.
pinnacle of retardation headcanon

Film Red had the Gorosei say that Uta was from Fearland/Figarland family. Which obviously came from Oda cause that came out about a year before this chapter named them,

We’re assuming they thought she was Shanks’ biological daughter, and so he’s related to old Garlick.

So it‘s not confirmed, but almost certainly correct that Shanks is a Figarland.
Since film Red is out, I have been saying that Shanks feat in MF was a political move rather than a “Strenght feat”.
I thought the movies were pure filler, seems like some details slip through the cracks sometimes. So Shanks is a Celestial Dragon after all. If his feat in Marineford was solely a political move that would really blow for what it originally looked like :gokulaugh:

If they didn't allow Doflamingo back after he killed his dad and if they killed Mjosgard, who never even ababdoned his title in the first place, then i have a hard time believing Shanks would still have CD privileges after being raised by the Pirate King and becoming a yonko.
