Theory Uta is an Idol!

What is known about the character:
"An almighty voice. With fiery red locks. "

Oda revealed that the idea is to have a younger female character as contrast to all the previous old geezer villains.

She is confirmed a villain, something I missed out earlier.

From Sanji's sheet we can assume her name is Uta. Uta means "song".


Connecting the dots I came to the conclusion:
Uta must be an Idol. One Piece film RED will revolve around an Idol!!!

This is exciting!

Makes perfect sense
We had a Legendary Pirate, then Legendary Marine, then Richest Man & now an Idol (Could even say she might be Most Famous Singer)

There is something interesting
Strong World revolved about Shiki who was gonna appear in Manga but Oda changed his mind & turned it into a Movie
So if we don't count Movie 10, then we have Z, Gold & now RED (Stampede is more of a Fanservice Movie, not Story Focused)

Zephyr wanted Dyna Stones (Weapon of Mass Destruction) to fulfill his Plan of Revenge (Power)
Tesoro became Richest Man to fulfill his Plan of Revenge (Wealth)
And now we have an Idol Villain

Kinda to how Roger was described in Chapter 1 "Fame, Wealth, Power"
So i believe Uta's Revenge Plan that makes her a Villain revolves around her Fame similar to how Tesoro's revolved around his Gold
In other words, the more Famous she becomes, the greater her chances of making her Villain Plan work

I'm guessing her Powers/DF & Plan require the most people possible to know her or love her or idolize her
Which makes perfect sense cuz Oda almost always gives Female Characters Hax DFs & not Close Combat-Based ones
Since her name means "Song" then i'm guessing that her DF Trigger when her opponent/People enjoys her Singing
(It's basically similar to Hancock's DF but instead of Sight/Affection, it's Hearing)

That's how her DF Powers trigger, but for what they do, i think since she doesn't look like Combat Ready & her DF is Hax, i believe she can make people defend her (Like how Fans defend their Idols). In other words, she can turn people against each other or make everyone who loves her singing protect her at all costs, this is why the more Famous she is, the bigger her Fandom, the greater her Army & the more she is protected & able to fulfill her Villain Plan whatever it is

As for her Backstory & relation to Shanks, the answer is also in this Fame
Zephyr was unable to protect his Crew & Family, while Tesoro was unable to buy his Lover's Freedom
So Lack of Power & Lack of Wealth is what made them become who they are
Meaning that for this Uta to have decided to become Most Famous Idol, she most probably suffered once due not being Famous enough

I'm guessing Shanks did something that caused her to lose something precious due to lack of Fame
Maybe she was supposed to sing one day to save someone (Maybe she wanted to reach some King or Royalty at some Kingdom) but Shanks had an incident there which caused her Show to get cancelled & missed her best opportunity, or maybe because of him she got mistaken for the cause of that incident & became a Wanted Criminal with a High Bounty which led to her having a very tough Life.

So she decided to fix this Bad Reputation & gain biggest Fandom ever as an Idol, so she can get her Revenge.
The Movie should end with a Performance in front of Royalty or very Powerful Kingdom, so SHs Opponents are gonna be the Strongest Royal Guards from those Kingdoms that Uta was able to control with her DF. While Luffy gonna fight her Personal Bodyguard + Her ofc

Thanks ^^
I also wanna add that her Plan & DF Powers cannot work unless she is in Danger
And SHs aren't stupid to attack a Weak Singer to trigger her DF Powers if they discovered her Evil Plan Mid-Movies (As usual)

So i'm guessing she will stage a Scenario where it looks like SHs are trying to kill her (or maybe Shanks if he does appear in Movie)
Or she simply hires Assassins who pretend to be from Red-Hair Pirates or SHs

This will make all her Fandom try to protect her & that will be Revenge on Shanks or his Biggest Fan (Luffy)
Maybe the person she lost is her Inspirational Figure (Similar to how Shanks is to Luffy)

On another note:
If she really is that manipulative abilitywise, then her Bodyguard might really be the close combat fighter here.
I assume a manager for intelligence purpose could be part of her crew too if she has a crew. It could possibly hint the negative influence she is under and that pushes her into this villainous role.

Additionally:
If there is an intelligence unit for Uta then that could imply involvement of other parties, like Navy, Underworld Brokers or CP.

This makes complete sense and is extremely plausible and likely imo, guaranteed even.
I'm really not keen on this direction narratively, anything with idol culture and such, I'm already suffering chronic cringe so far.

My saving grace will be if Uta has a F in her name though at least.

This is gonna be better than the movies justifications

Totally agree
She most probably have a Manager similar to how Brook had that Long-Arm Guy
Her Bodyguards will definitely be Close Combat Specialists, i just wonder how many she'd have

In Film Z, we had Marines, in Gold we had CP-0 so i think we will definitely have a Third Party in this Movie
And whenever Shanks appears, Blackbeard is also mentioned (Similar to how they always share Volume Covers)

So my guess is that Blackbeard Pirates gonna appear in this Movie (Catarina Devon hunts Beautiful Girls so i believe she will appear this Movie)
She will be accompanied by someone who deals with her Manager (Similar to how Sabo appeared in Stampede & dealt with that Fiesta guy)
And my guess is Shiryu (They literally appeared together when Moria attacked BB's Island)

So yeah, i believe Shiryu & Devon are gonna appear in this Movie. Possibly Burgess too (He is only one from BB Crew who i think it doesn't hurt to show fighting or losing in Movie, cuz we've already seen that in Manga)
