This Is So Adorable!

this is so adorable!

I can imagine Shanks saying o mIhawk "Are star signs are compatible 🥰" and "Mihawk just being like of course they're compatible we literally have the same birthday , it's the same sign."

Shanks is a astrology girly

He fully believes to make your own story outside of your blood and family stuff, but he does believe in fate, and astrology goes hand in hand with that.

He also won't shut up about how he and mohawk have comparable star signs.

It also really helps with navigation, sure he has a Navigator on his crew who is way better and stuff, but he can technically also navigate through calm waters.

I’m gonna bring this back because I will truly die on this hill and I wanna here y’all thoughts on this.

But I do genuinely believe with all my heart that Mihawk and Doffy should speak Spanish (maybe specifically Spain Spanish cause I know they are different) and more importantly they should speak it to each other. Or more accurately Doffy should speak it at Mihawk while Mihawk adamantly pretends he doesn’t exist.

Was thinking about this lovely comment that @manofbeskar left me "(+ blackbeard thing, me and my dad were saying if bb hurts/kills shanks, there's a chance mihawk will go after him)"

And not to put on my theory glasses

but it unknowingly triggered my biggest fear that I didn't even know I had. What if blackbeard killing Shanks and Mihawk hearing about it is what triggers the flashback into his backstory. What if that happens and it actually kills me? What then?

What fresh devil's deal is this?

Because like I got what I wanted Mihawk deep dive yay! But at what cost? Aren't some prices simply too high?

And I think we can all tell that we are gearing up for a Red Hair pirated Blackbeard Pirates confrontation (also isn't it neat that all three men involved in this whitebeard, blackboard, red hair, are all memorialized by their haircolor? Pretty fucking neat) But we also know that Shanks isn't going to beat blackboard Luffy, the protagonist has to do that! So it's reasonable to think that either the red hair pirates are shattered like what happened with Law and Shanks is gravely injured or Shanks dies and the red hair pirates have to regroup and probably partner up with the strawhats or something. but yeah if Shanks' death triggers Mihawk's backstory I think I'd be legally obligated to fly to Japan and attempt to fistfight Oda.

Crazy that Yuuji started the culling games with Megumi saying start by saving me. And here we are now at the end and the only person Yuuji might actually save is Megumi and that’s a start. But also

What the fuck, fuck you gege

It's really interesting and intentional that of the original 7 warlords, at least 4 of them are amongst the pirates with the most atrocities committed against them by the hands of the world government (celestial dragons) the system they used to work (liberal use of the word) for and occasionally defend.

obviously, Doffy's situation as an outsed celestial dragon is distinctly very different from Boa, and Kuma who were previously slaves and the oppression of Jimbe’s entire race* but it also raises the interesting pattern of all the former oppressed* warlords eventually in some way allying or helping Luffy because they just sense the freedom Luffy embodies while Doffy as a Celestial dragon is threatened by it.

I wonder what this means for Crocodile and Mihawk the only Warlords with still vague origins and arguably the most complicated relationships to the strawhats.

It’s interesting that despite Kuma probably knowing of Mihawk’s reputation for ruthlessness and being a warlord for atleast 3 years he’s actively seen his apathy. But he must have seen something else to send two kids he was actively trying to help to his island (that is considering his powers don’t have a mind of their own and he has to actively consider where exactly he’s sending people and not just a want or vibe)

I don’t know; he sent the strawhats exactly where they needed to go and he sent Perona and Zoro to kuraigina home of the world’s strongest swordsman and he had to know, atleast on some level trust, that Mihawk wouldn’t hurt them. And I wonder why.

Maybe he’s seen the extent of Mihawk’s various whims to combat boredom and knew the man couldn’t resist anything this interesting.
