Mihawk is a definitely a top tier but I woudn't call him overrated or underrated.

I do think a lot of people do have some sort of agenda when it comes to Mihawk. On one hand you have Zoro fans who hype up Mihawk to boost up Zoro and on the other hand, you have Zoro haters who love bringing up Vista to downplay Mihawk which in turn dehypes Zoro by association.

PS: Mihawk > Shanks :cheers:
 
When Shanks reveals the truth;

Daz: ''By the way, you shouldn't mistakenly think me as a swordsman. I've got plenty of other weapons to cut your body to shreds''
- Chapter 195


Zoro/Mihawk fandom will be like: :josad:

What are the options for Shanks;
-Advance CoC?
-Drops his sword (like Pica) and fights unarmed like Garp?
-DF user before being Yonko (6 years before)
-A secret upgrade like being cyborg (similar to Queen)

Oda already hinted guys, its over. When Oda said he doesn’t know how Shanks fight and still keeping it as a secret to this day... It will surprise everyone. That's how Oda is.

So my advice; try to wank Mihawk without using Shanks. Can you guys accomplish that impossible mission? I mean how can you even prove Mihawk is on Yonko level without using Shanks?

False equivalence.

Luffy is bound to surpass Roger in individual strength, same goes for BB as Chinjao implied.

Zoro is bound to surpass Mihawk in individual strength.

That doesn’t necessarily mean him and Luffy will be equal, there’s still a decent gap between where EoS Luffy is projected to be and where the current top tiers reside as indicated through numerous statements made in the manga, no amount of vague statements from databooks that came double digit years later is changing that. And EoS Zoro not being relatively far from EoS Luffy is not an issue whatsoever.
If Mihawk is top 3 or top 10

Oda wouldn't have him look high tier below Doffy
Bro, they are not from the same era, whoever was stronger than who does not matter.

What's your point exactly?
How is mihawk above linlin? When she's Kaido's equal

Are you okay?
 
according to oda, only makes one able to have specific people not get knocked out.
D: Luffy's haoshoku haki was able to affect 50,000 men, but how many would Shanks and the others be able to defeat? P.N. Captain Nobuo

O: In exactly the same place and exact same situation as Luffy, Shanks or Rayleigh may have been capable of knocking out all 100,000. In a different setting, you can't really compare just by asking "how many people". Being able to knock an enemy out with haki depends entirely on having an overwhelming power gap between the two. In Luffy's case the point is the number of people that were so weak that they were not even worth him fighting. If there were 100,000 to-some-extent-strong-willed pirates before him, it's possible that he wouldn't even be able to knock out a single one. On a related note, as one's proficiency with haoshoku advances, it's even possible to target a few people in a crowd to NOT knock out.
-Drops his sword (like Pica) and fights unarmed like Garp?
possible

-DF user before being Yonko (6 years before)
didnt a magazine confirm him to not be a df user?

-A secret upgrade like being cyborg (similar to Queen)
wouldnt exactly mean he isnt a swordsman. and also sounds like massive reaching, because he would have most likely get a replacement for his arm then.
 
lets look at Mihawks title and see whos right shall we Erkan
世界最強の剣士 (Sekai Saikyō no Kenshi) is Mihawks title
Now lets look at the word Saikyo which Erkan claimed to mean greatest and nothing to do with strength
The first Kanji The character 強 (Sai) which roughly translate to most, extreme or Utmost. Now let’s look at the second Kanji, 強 (Tsuyo) which translates to Strong, Powerful, or Potent.
But this may not be enough for Erkan so lets at the root of the character 強 (tsuyo)
"The character 強 likely originally referred to the rice weevil, an insect that attacks rice and several other crops, before being phonetically borrowed to represent the sense of "strong; powerful""
Again nothing to do with skill simply strength and power.
Erkan didnt respond:saden::shame:
Shanks is a Swordsman

° If I'm not mistaken, Mihawk's vivre card is translated by Arthur, someone who supposedly puts his own words in those translations and that's a problem since that adds, removes or misrepresents the information. Also if we talk about databooks there are two that practically say Vista = Mihawk.

° Mihawk didn't hold back against pre timeskip Luffy and was unable to do anything to him in several attacks.

° Vista clashed equally with Mihawk and Mihawk supporters' favorite excuse is that Mihawk was playing with Vista while Vista was dying from the effort facing him lol

°Crocodile stopped him and Jozu stopped his attack that was aimed at a Yonko.

° Mihawk> Fujitora based on what? In the lack of Feats for Mihawk? Let's put aside that Fujitora is one of the greatest powers in the world government and ignore his fruit? Aside from Big Mom, Fujitora could easily be the biggest problem for a swordsman without a devil fruit.

° Mihawk never had duels with the Yonko Shanks and that a character of the same generation can become overwhelmingly stronger than another is completely feasible there is Buggy and Shanks.

° Garp mentioned the 4 strongest pirates in the world and there was no Mihawk, but another excuse is to say that Mihawk is not a pirate ...
please lol

° The world government abolished the ouka shishibukai system and they cared 0% that Mihawk was there. I wonder if the world government was going to discard someone who is at the same level or more than the strongest in the government?

Another question I ask myself is what is Mihawk's title based on, if he never defeated the strongest swordsmen? I'm talking about Vista, Dark King, Fujitora, Big Mom, the ones from Wano ...

So Mihawk is not a top tier and could I be wrong with what I said? who knows, only time and feats will tell because that's what Mihawk lacks to put it where they put it.

- He said was talking about Yoru him going easy on luffy could have likely still kiled him
- Never adressed anything
-A true swordsman decides what he cuts the attack was aimed for WB not Jozu you might have had a point if the attack was meant for Jozu
- His title which objective since it was given to us from an omniscient narrator
- you think that you become stronger after losing your dominate hand and doing nothing of note for years
-Mihawk rarely ever shows up
