Admirals are the WG’s greatest force

him being stronger than King was a no brainer. It’s why the Admiral= YC1 narrative was always stupid

shanks doing this to Kid makes everybody look bad. Including other Yonko
You're bending the logic deliberately here. The King being way weaker than an admiral isn't the issue here. We all accepted King is a bum before an admiral as soon as we saw him get low diffed despite his injuries. But it's suddenly so hard to accept Kid's defeat despite it happening—assuming it happened. Why the double standards? Why not accept it the way it is the same way we did it for other characters? The only right answer here is, this chapter shows Kid isn't as good as you all wanted him to be, so you're blaming it on Oda.

No, we've seen Kid up against other Yonko and he was never put down this fast

I expected him to get the same treatment against Shanks

Clearly Oda has other plans
That means Big Mom wasn't so great in the first place, which's been propagated by so many of us since the dawn of the time. It's just that it took this long for certain fanbases to realize.
 
How are people comparing 2 YCs losing to Admiral
To
3B pirate, Kid (whom Oda wrote many times that they are newgen to take over New era)
losing to Shanks easily is the same?

YCs aren't the same as SNs or SHs
Exactly

It's not the same at all

Law and Kid are "titans" that are nigh equivalent to the Yonko and are considered legitimate candidates for the Pirate King title

They shit on commanders in terms of portrayal

Read what you typed. I’ve already accepted Shanks >>> Kid. I just think it’s shit writing
 
Now people start to realize how Kid and Law were not going to beat BM, even by the every end of the fight where she was still going strong, without hax abilities and extremely favorable outside factors.

Everyone called it, but people called it cope
