Questions & Mysteries Is Shanks Overrated?

[BaboonMihawk]

Most overrated character in OP.

 

[MarineHQ]

Overrated for now. He can only surpass Kaido when he becomes a villain but until something like that happens we're told story wise where he stands.

 

[SkySanji]

Underrated, people act like him putting the fear of god in an Admiral from miles away required all his power, when in reality it was as much power as required to squash an ant.

 

[Monkey D Theories]

He’s literally Oda’s most wanked character

 

[Heart pirate]

Mental take

character has the top 5 hype

 

[Cringewald]

Stronger than Mihawk, but weaker than Big Mom.

 

[IsaziSempi]

He's a Yonkou.

 

[Sasaki Kojirō]

People only hate Shanks because he made Akainu shit his pants and Akainu isn't the only one affected here, all admirals are minimized in the presence of Shanks the red god.

 

[EmperorKinyagi]

He slams Roger

 

[Moegara]

Both.

He's underrated as most people can't accept he's Roger 2.0

He's overrated as some people but him above Mihawk or as his equal.

 

[Law-sama]

Fairly rated, which is above Mihawk

 

[Wizak08]

Hard to say, it has dwindle down a bit for now, couple years ago, people argued he wasn't a swordsman (some still do), top 1 above kaido..etc. now more agrees with Mihawk > shanks and see him top between 3/5 in the verse which is fair.

 

[BlackLegFring]

You can say he’s overrated by the wackiest part of the fandom, but he’s Oda’s beloved so you’re better off not betting against him

 

[suzaku]

Fairly rated

 

[Salah WG]

He is fairly compared against all Characters except in Two Cases
They Underrate him against Old Era Roger (Also WB, Garp, Xebec ... etc)
And Overrate him against Mihawk (Dragon too)

It's like They refuse Idea that Shanks Surpassed Old Era, but also can't accept that He isn't Strongest in Current Era

 

[Topi Jerami]

Underrated, people act like him putting the fear of god in an Admiral from miles away required all his power, when in reality it was as much power as required to squash an ant.

Not just Admiral, he wifi diffed Kaido too.

 

[zenox]

heavily overrated with all that haki man bullshit

 

[Herrera95]

Shanks is only top #1 in the overrated characters list

 

[Thaidakar]

Overrated? No. Oda uses him to scale Mihawk cause he's afraid of annoying mihawk with panel time too much or wake him from naps. He saw what he did to Krieg's fleet after all

 

[suzaku]

Not just Admiral, he wifi diffed Kaido too.

Stop saying this 😭
