This kind of cope from someone that said in this thread that Shanks is a God when even the joke BM has statements of being stronger than him...may God have mercy on your soul. :sighting:
I'm not interested in debating you

just don't forget to stand up like a man then kowtow to Shanks hype when he fucked your empty hate

tho, I don't think you are man enough for that after years of blind hate

Shanks would never get fully offscreened. Now for when they encounter BB pirates it’s possible for things to be like the Ace encounter when we got a glimpse of what their abilities were then the rest of the fight got offscreened, definitely possible. The only way we get a full start to finish battle is if Luffy is present to either fight Shanks or witness Shanks fight someone else.

if you know Shanks so well ... what is Shanks next move?
Get offscreened by Teach

:zehaha:

But seriously there's not much to know about Shanks besides what was presented to us. The wildest thing that can change how we view him is being Xebec's son which imo isn't farfetched.

Assuming we are very close to the EoS, with Shanks vs Teach constant foreshadowing throughout the story, we are about to witness BBP vs RHP. What do you think Shanks next move is?

that's the perfect things about Shanks
for 25 years we saw him but we are yet to understand him, what he wants, who he is or anything about him
he is know unknown, he is unpredictable and reasonable at the same time

Oda is planning 25 years for Shanks and there is no limit for what he may do
he might even be the final villain of the story, the one after Teach ...
so don't be fully sure Shanks gonna die by Teach, Shanks might be the end game itself

knowing Buggy, Luffy and BB are DEEPLY connected to Shanks, it's safe to assume next sage is Shanks's saga
dead or villain or alive or anything ... Shanks gonna take the lead of one piece

I can go as far as saying one piece story can not be told without Shanks
he is the key for Luffy growth and the conflix of morality

this is not merely a talk about power level. in power level I can simply give up and say fine
in terms of effect on the story ... he is far above Teach
Teach is the man who will get his ass kicked by Luffy so Luffy can become King
Shanks is the one who will shape Luffy and the final step of the story
this man in the personification of Oda himself walking in the story

Oda uses Shanks like pure gold, only in THE BEST chapters, only with HIGHEST hype
even his picture ONLY show up in BEST chapters ... like 957 or 1053 ...


I'm not even saying it as a Shanks fan
I'm saying this as a One Piece fan

if you don't understand how greatly important Shanks is to the story and how well managed he is ...
you failed to fully understand the story


and I'm saying this for your own sake. debating about Shanks in a random place on internet is pointless
any one piece fan SHOULD be praying to God and goda to see him in action
cause without Shanks taking the lead one piece is a failed story
and this is not going to far

I don't care if you don't believe me, sometimes ignorance is a bless. you gonna get shocked and enjoy the feeling

As a shanks fan ive been expecting Shanks to get offscreened by BB for years, but that's just me being paranoid. I see Shanks being a top 3 fighter in world, above BB by however much. Still gonna die protecting luffy tho lol :feelscryingman:

I don't doubt he'll play a big role in the upcoming arc. He has been somewhat of a compass to the main character. However here's the thing, especially in Shonen, I view the characters who serve as role models as an extension of the mc himself. The character itself is restricted according to the measures expected by the main character which can only mean linear growth/ portrayal.

Teach is much more solid as a character, he has his unique personality and way of doing things. Shanks looks like a Roger/Rayleigh rip off who's only role is to serve as a path for the mc to hop on.

Teach's background is very mysterious too, how can he be the first in history to eat 2 devil fruits, what is "they", why does he have a "weird body", how come he knows about Xebec and is trying to carry out his will!!

According to Shanks, Teach, as vile as he is, managed to hide his real powers for so long waiting for the right chance and he executed his plans perfectly. His introduction itself shows how he and Luffy are so alike deep down but both took different paths. Despite his genius he doesn't have a single speck of arrogance, personally I think that's his best quality.

I also think Dragon is more important than Shanks. Dragon is Luffy's father, yet in 1000 chapters we still don't even know what his abilities are, not even his power level. He's going to overthrow the world government which eventually will be the final act in the manga. Btw read my Dragon theory link in signature and tell me your opinion.

Because I think pandering to fanboys would make for terrible writing, and I hope Oda is still good enough as a writer to subvert the unrealistic expectations around Shanks’ strength lol.
And here we have the problem Lee.Oda CLEARLY writes his cast with Bias.

Oda dont cares about BM,hence she gets clowned almost all the time.
Kaido got great combat stuff in order to push Luffy(Oda favorite) to the next level.But otherwise Oda dont care about Kaido
Or look at Katakuri.No other FM got so much respect as Kata.Or such amoung of tools
And im pretty sure Oda is also by default a Shanks fan.He also knows lots of people wants to see Shanks hence the bait with LolMovie Red
Somethings telling me Oda will retcon Shanks position again to put him above Kaido

Vast majority of the fandom think Prime Ray > Shanks? Idk about that. I'd say most people believe they're around the same level and I'd bet a good chunk of people believe Shanks is stronger.
I did a poll with +100K voters and 60% said Ray
I can dig up the poll but trust me on that, why the fuck should I lie :)
who knows maybe Shanks can win in a much bigger poll with like 1 Mil voters. but doubt a bigger poll exists

In your head everyone hates Shanks, if someone says he's boring it's beyond madness, it's the end of the world...are you taking your meds? :risicheck:

sure, I need to prove ... you ... are a hater. look at your avy :)
you are a proud hater so don't fucking take the high road

and yes, anyone who say Shanks is boring his statement is beyond madness
any moment you want to take the bet on it come close

p.s
nice way to dodge my point
I ask you again, will you take your L like a man when Shanks fucked your off screen theory or not?
at this point I'm asking do you have balls or not

Oda does so many things off-screen. I have the same fears but Shanks has been a pivotal character since the beginning. I am hoping it is a multi-chapter conflict.

Love your avatar. Airi Ban from DS2, right?

Regardless of whatever is going on between you two, you gotta admit his avy + name are legendary.

A 100% off screen? Nah I heavily doubt he does that, it would absolutely crumble Utah goodwill and legacy he’s built for himself…..

But I also don’t think we getting some extra multiple chapter dialogue/story/fight from Shanks. Like there’s a relatively long list of mfs that Oda has skipped over/Off screened lol

  1. Akainu vs Kuzan
  2. Ace vs BlackBeard
  3. Large parts of Kaidous fight
  4. Large parts of Big Moms fight
  5. Jack vs Minks
  6. Jack vs Mink on Wano
  7. MarineFord fights
Etc etc lol. So while ion think he completely skips shanks stuff. I wouldn’t get my hopes up for Oda to dedicate 50-100 chapters to shanks
