Character Discussion Shanks's weakness is still being emotional

#1
Since Shanks lost his arm by being emotional and dropping his guard 12 years before:




It happened when Shanks wasn't an Emperor yet, he became an Emperor 6 years after losing his arm.

Shanks obviously become stronger after being an Emperor but his emotional weakness is still there:



Greenbull: 'Daahh!! Wait, stop!! Who is doing that?!'

Greenbull literally gets hurt from Shanks's Wifi-Haki, this is one of the best feats in the series for sure.

However, we see that Shanks also accidently knocks out his own men while using his Haki.

''The new guys are foaming at the mouth!''



''Otherwise you will find yourself overpowering even those innocent bystanders around you''

After controlling conquerors Haki, even Fishman Island Luffy was able to choose who he can knock out:



Shanks only knocked out his own men because he was emotional there, its a mistake similar to Katakuri made when he got angry and failed to use his observation Haki vs Luffy for a while.

Even though Shanks got stronger after losing his arm and after making a mistake, his weakness is still there.

Just like Teach is overconfident and careless at the beginning of his fights, and thats his weakness, Shanks's weakness is being emotional and he might still make mistakes next time we see him if it involves someone he cares about.

While Teach too cares about his crew, but he is not emotionally attached to them, Teach's crew are just important to him because they are strong as he recruit only strong people to his crew, so Teach can be rational and logical about his crew, while Shanks is still emotional when it comes to his friends and his crew and can still make a mistake.

This tells me Shanks gets clouded in battle in battle if his friends are hurt,
We might even get that Shanks CoO will be off sometimes due to being emotional a lot in a fight
