Powers & Abilities So what exactly is the difference between Roger’s, Xebec’s, Shanks’s, and Rayleigh’s fighting styles?

[MonsterKaido]

?

None. They are all same with same type of haki. They only have different fighting styles.

 

[Shiroyru]

WHAO! What's next? He'll be willing to answer questions on sbs?

Lmao you do realize that Oda gets thousands of fan requests right?

 

[Shiroyru]

None. They are all same with same type of haki. They only have different fighting styles.

The only difference between their “fighting styles” is the words they yell out when swinging their swords

Yet decides to put Mihawk > Shanks every time.

Agreed. Rocks is simply garp with a sword. Both have same type of ranged attacks. Garp's galaxy impact is same as rocks' shockwaves.

Legit what’s even the point of giving Xebec a sword if he’s just gonna use it like a warhammer. Just give him a warhammer at that point

I agree. It would at least make rocks bit more unique and also why loki uses a hammer himself.

Oda lacks creativity, he can't draw sword fights and haki clashes have freed his hands.

I had high expectations for Mihawk vs Zoro a long time ago but now it's obvious that the entire battle will just be gay haki sword clashes till the moment Zoro lands his finisher move.

Fan requests are canon btw

 

[Shiroyru]

Fan requests are canon btw

Them being canon or not doesn’t even matter. Oda isn’t gonna accept a fan requests that has the characters acting out of character. He wouldn’t draw a fan request of Shanks punching an old lady for example

Sure, he would use a sword

It’s so funny how you coped for years about swordsman and here you are still coping . Entertaining

 

[Sir Yasheen]

What's disingenuous is trying to argue Zoro/Sanji or King/Queen as rivals when these dudes are literally crewmates and they never had a serious fight against each other. The only "1cm difference rivals" are Shanks and Mihawk and the portrayal favors Mihawk.

How many serious fights did grey and natsu have?

Or tai and Matt from digimon?

People on the same teams can still be rivals

You talking about coping is a beggar talking about begging ngl

 

[LolonoisZolo]

Not sure about the different fighting styles but it is 100% sure that Mihawk is stronger than Shanks.
Shanks has haki lasers coming out of his stump ?
Mihawk still wins.
Shanks can negate DF, haki and make opponents blind ?
Mihawk still wins.
Shanks, Shamrock and Garling fuse into one giant rat ?
Mihawk still wins.

Agenda Piece aside, it’s pretty fucking lame that all of these guys do the same exact boring thing (throwing out air bars with black lightning streaks). What happened to Oda’s creativity?

On the other hand, Oda attempting to differentiate and give some nuance to Xebec's swordsmanship by likening it to a canon-blast made a bunch of [ String of words I shouldn't say ], create entire new sub-sections of sub-sections pertaining to haki-wizards, CoC casters and ZigZag line warriors (ethernet/wifi/satellite/cable modem) , and arguing about why what we're looking at isn't what it literally is because of made up criteria like no physical contact of blades, or whether they solemnly made vows of how favouring one particular limb over the other doesn't impact how dedicated they are to pivoting their blades at a certain angle under the jurisdiction of the Swordsmen committee

 

[nik87]

No difference.
They are a copy of a copy.
Only Shanks might have a DF in the sword.
All of them are 2nd rate swordsmen and not intended to be the strongest but instead hypetools/steppingstones for Zoro.
