General & Others TOP 5 underrated and overrated characters

Underrated: Pedro.
If he didn't die in WCI arc, soon he can surpass the dukes and become World Strongest Minkman.
His animal race helps this too as he is based from a jaguar, an animal whose bite strength is very strong (source: google). Compared to the dukes who are just based from dog and cat.
Here are his feats:
1. Zou Luffy and his CoO didn't notice his appearance in Whale Forest. Suddenly without Luffy's knowing Pedro and his men already surrounded him.
2. Fought Tamago (which is also a strong fighter and by experience portrayal, even Sweet Commander Smoothie asked for his advice) and the result of the match: Tamago was traumatized by Pedro's Electro to the point he prepared an Electro Suit that just in case they fought again in the future. And they did, but even with the suit, Pedro still gained upper hand in their second clash.
3. Great endurance. Took out his own eye without flinching.
And here is the reason why he is really underrated: in his last moment Perospero showed upper hand against him. Perospero even literally stomped him before he activated his bombs.

Underrated: Gryphon
For blocking Akainu's attack
For matching Whitebeard's bisento swing
Overrated: Shanks
"Shanks blocked Akainu's attack!!! :rolleyes:" while actually Gryphon did all the job, Shanks only wielded it.
Last time Shanks tried to block another (and far weaker) attack without Gryphon's help, he got crippled.

nah
"no Akainu won't punch holes on Kaido and Big Mom". none of what you have said is conclusive evidence. I am going to have to disagree.
BB simultaneous rise to being a yonko and being luffy's prime antagonist on the pirate side
could be seen as equivalent to akainu's rise as his main antagonist in the navy. The amazing thing is he takes down a yonko before he encounters those two which means he does have to surpass a yonko before he gets to both.
A lot of opinion tho on both sides. This debate is over when you can offer concrete panels and proof. kizaru willing to go to wano to faceoff big mom and kaido isnt helping your case either.

You said someone weaker than admirals can't lead them but Sengoku led the marines even when he has gotten weaker than the admirals. In fact, he did it for a long time. When it's true that his and Garp's retirement along with WB's death marks the end of their era, the main reason why Sengoku decided stepped down is to take the blame on himself for the events at MF. Kong still holds his position, btw. He has the power to command both WG as well as the Navy forces but I doubt he is stronger than Akainu. Being FA is more about leading the marines than fighting in frontlines. So I am not sure why you think FA must be the strongest admiral.
This whole FA= Strongest admiral thing was taken out of nowhere. Repeating the same arguments won't help us much here. I am not responding again to the same points. The fact that Aokiji was chosen to be the FA over Akainu and Kizaru when the two of them are potentially stronger should've ended the misconception that FA must be the strongest of the admirals. I am not sure why people still entertain it.

Anothers underrated characters worthy of honorable mention is Enel and Maggelan.
I'm sure Enel was set to be equal to Ace level (YC2 or YC3), but it was butchered by inconsistent power level in one piece.
Maggelan is another character underestimated for inconsistency (Luffy made him kneel). The way Jinbe, Ivankov and Crocodile feared him, I'd be surprised if he's not at least YC1.

This would apply if it were anyone but these two. The plot tends to give them magic power ups to stay close behind Luffy. I.e neither of them should’ve stood a chance against CP9, but they got ashura and diable jambe out of the blue. Based on their feats, they shouldn’t be ready for YC1-2 characters yet, but you can bet that they’ll get random power ups when the time comes.
Underrated:
BIG MOM
Shanks (for each 1 person saying he's stronger than the rest, there are like 100 saying he's shit)
BIG MOM
Sanji (he's not that far away from you know who =P).
BIG MOM
Smoothie (how can people claim she is weak when we haven't seen her fighting? *le sigh)
BIG MOM
Smoker (but i should admit this is mostly Oda's fault x') )
BIG MOM
Overrated:
I don't want problems
See ya ~

Not so 'random' if they trained for it prior as shown as it was stated they had new tricks and train off-screen before going to Enies Lobby to face their challengers.
Nah, put who you think is Overrated, don't let you freedom of speech be silence by those who don't have stern to respect it
