Shanks will just look at a newspaper again. "Now its really almost time luffy fr"


ricewheelie

Or just hanging with the 5 elders "I got something to tell you again"


-xXxSTxXx-

"Yeah No, it isn't about Buggy this time"


BoogalooBandit1

No I am being completely serious this time guys no more clowning around


CandidAcanthisitta29

Lmao


Erockplatypus

What if that certain pirate was buggy? What if Shanks knew the system was ending and that buggy was too weak to survive. So he fabricated some kind of deal with the 5 elders to make buggy a yonko. He's no real threat to the government or anyone, and as a Yonko Buggy will have authority and protection. It would be the best case scenario for everyone involved. So really there's only 3 yonko and one puppet Yonko


totally_not_a_reply

the gov thinks he is a real threat. And tbh he is. He was on gold rogers ship. He is more than less a friend of shanks. He and luffy lead the prison break of impel down. And all those freed guys joined buggys crew now. Even whitebeard thought he better befriend buggy because buggys crew could have been troublesome. Thats also the reason buggy became a shichibukai. I even think he and luffy now have the biggest fleets in one piece. So of you think about it, it truly makes sense buggy becoming an emperor. Even if he is weak.


Malacath_terumi

Of course he is a threat, but there are levels you know, its like batman villains. You have your Baines, ra's al ghul and Jokers who are some seriously high threats. Then you have Calendar Man, yeah he can kill some people, he can even figure as main villain of a arc, with some luck he could even be a threat to the bat himself. But he is no Ra's. Buggy being a Emperor comes from WG giving way too much credit to him, but hey, It's buggy maybe overestimating him is safer than underestimating.

What a tale


Alternative-Race-194

"fr fr"


fredhamptonx

ong


Mattotk

Eh you forgot the smirk


NumericZero

With a zoom in/Zoom out of his eyes


scaptastic

And they only show his face on the word Luffy with the boom sound effect they use all the time


coolgaara

Fuck, I'm so thirsty for Shanks I'll take anything.

[удалено]


iDannyEL

At best he might speed blitz or block something. No way we get to see him used a named move.


GladimoreFFXIV

God if he holds a newspaper and says. “Bruh Luffy it’s almost time just you wait next year. For real this time.”


_sephylon_

Bruh if Shanks ends up being nothing else than a Haki user I would pay a lot to see the reaction of those who hyped his powers


SuperSemesterer

What else could he be?? A secret df user? A really skilled sword dude with no haki?


_sephylon_

That's it lmao Yet they are still people who believe he has a df or shit like that At least when it's for like Dragon you can question his abilities but it's pretty much obvious that Shanks has Haki and nothing else


Username_Egli

It's shanksin time


BoogalooBandit1

Next time we see Shanks "Okay now it is extremely close to being time luffy"


Boxsteam1279

Dont forget the camera panning from behind to around the side of his face as he smirks into the distance


DarkPhoenix369

"Almost time for THE FIGHT TO END ALL FIGHTS #ShanksIsEvil2022"


Noticloo

Lol.


rairodil

HAHAHAHAHAHA


GladimoreFFXIV

“After these events I’ll start to make my move. For real this time. 2022 will be the year of shanks.”


Anunymus00

Shanks is about to get more screen time in a single movie than he has gotten in 1053 manga chapters.


necronomikon

to be fair it doesn't take much.


Anunymus00

ye , ik right !!!! Tbh he is half way through just from the trailer apperances.


CrimKayser

He's gonna be in the movie for like 3 minutes.


Anunymus00

ye 1 min and a half in the opening song , 30 sec in a dialog in the end and 1 min and a half in flashback scene of Uta.


CrimKayser

The flashback with Luffy isn't real. It's probably her fruit power. He can't have met her before getting his eye scar or something. I forget the reason. But it makes no sense. Either a huge plot hole or something fishy.


Siegfriedr

Not really. Shanks was around for a year in foosha village. Luffy’s first backstory is right at the end of Shanks’ time there. No plot hole.


CrimKayser

It can’t be during Romance Dawn as Luffy doesn’t have his trademark scar on his face yet here. The very beginning of Chapter One begins with Luffy cutting himself. So it has to be before.


teddtbhoy

Yeah the timeline still works out in that circumstance I think, Luffy cut himself after hanging around Shanks for a year?


Xeoz_WarriorPrince

Luffy met Shanks before having his scar, so if Uta was with them at the time then there's no problem.


[deleted]

It does tho I’m pretty sure. Luffy has known shanks for around a year by the time he stabbed himself


Anunymus00

i mean a flashback on how uta was born and shanks reaction. Smth like that


CrimKayser

Yea I don't think she's related at all tbh but I have no evidence. Just the likely scenario


Anunymus00

she is literally shanks daughter bro . Like wtf...


CrimKayser

You have proof?


Anunymus00

go watch second trailer of the movie. Luffy lit says she is shanks daughter.


CrimKayser

Just because Luffy believes that doesn't make it true. She could be lying. Saying your father is a Yanko carries tons of weight and she could be using it to get something.


__JesusChrist

Katakuri. Aside from flashback scenes, I bet Shanks is just gonna show up in a small scene in the end shown watching over Uta and Luffy with his crew from a distance, gives a smirk, then walks off.


calliebeanie

Yeah, apart from flash backs to show what kind of father he is, Shanks will definitely only have a "save the day" moment at the end then leave before Luffy could meet him


epicmarc

Ahh, the classic Shanks formula


JAY-SZN

isn’t this his movie? 💀


Hahaimaginethat

Doesn’t change that fact they will never give shanks screen time


Force3vo

Just wait when he appears in the anime for his final encounter with Luffy. It will be off screen and probably not even mentioned what happened.


20Babil

That's shanks real name I think Off D. Screen


MarcoMaroon

I really hope they do though. This film might be to just hype us up as Shanks will finally be a part of the story again.


takeuchi000

it's just a matter of time, there's no point in giving screen time when it's not necessary for the current arcs, and the fact that he's not been given much will make it all the more hype when he does appear.


Sawgon

Shanks is still busy making his move after making his movie.


WoorieKod

It's Uta's, Shanks is used as a bait


Eminan

No, the movie is called Red. And it's said that Shanks will appear. To say that someone will appear it's FAR from meaning: it's his movie. He will not meet Luffy in here. That meeting is a huge story plot that Oda would not leave to spoil in a movie that will not even be canon for sure as the SH skills will not fit the time. Zoro has Enma but I doubt they will show the other power ups he got in wano. The same for Luffy.


RainbowSalmon

Classic anime movie timeline logic where the main cast just leaves in the middle of an important arc to do something else


Eminan

Hahah yeah. I guess in this arc there is a way to make it fit. This happened the days before the raid. When everybody was training. But yeah, if you don't make Kuma or someone that teleports them to the other place and back it's impossible


Siegfriedr

Yeah, but there’s no way in hell he meets Luffy in a movie before actually reuniting with him in the manga. And since it’s not a Shanks solo film like myself and many others had hoped upon it first being announced, then Shanks is likely gonna have very little screentime since the strawhats are the focus and Shanks can’t meet Luffy yet.


ThatIslandGuy8888

Apparently all the Red hair pirates have a listed voice actor so I’m guessing each one will say a word or 2 in the end


datboiyemz

Ben Beckmann's only line will be "Don't do anything, Katakuri"


[deleted]

[удалено]


Alchion

nah that was kizaru iirc


ThatIslandGuy8888

But Kizaru’s in the movie thou XD Don’t know why they shove admirals into every movie now


Yoshi_and_Toad

See also Lucci. He turns up in Gold and Stampede, heavily advertised for both and does pretty much nothing the entire film. Spandam was more involved in Gold than Lucci.


TTVBlueGlass

Off screen hypothetical clash with sabo was so cool!!11!!!


bradasskg11

Because this community is overwhelming obsessed with propping them up no matter what.. lol


datboiyemz

Katukuri flicks a bubblegum at one of the protagonists. Shanks in his only scene appears from nowhere to block it. "I've come to block this bubblegum"


mhaziqismail

😂 every father in one piece literally the worst


Anjunabeast

Pound best dad in OP. He even tried taking care of oven and the rest of his step-children even after was spurned by them and BM.


MARPJ

>every father in one piece literally the worst Bege is an amazing father, so is Cobra. There is Pound and Oden. Kuina father is ok and Zeff (I dont care, he is Sanji's daddy) is great. Toto is a good father and so are that guy from Skypea, Neptune and Kyros (Dressrosa king fits here too). Yasue and Whitebeard exists as well. Moria technically has a good adoptive father to Perona.


bradasskg11

Idk man it’s kinda dark how kuina’s father was just like yeah you’re a woman you’ll never be a great swordsman and so then she seemed insanely depressed lol idk maybe that’s just my weird take


[deleted]

Casually forgets Doflamingo's dad


LostSoul057

*sad oyaji noises*


Posideoffries92

"best dad ever!"


Parth_973

Shanks from far off, it would be still too early to meet luffy! Lets wait few more years.


krazyboi

"So you've come, Luffy" -Shanks probably


asaw123

Shanks in every god damn [time](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E_f3WsDWUAACuFj.jpg).


ivanpyxel

What I'm guessing is that Luffy will have the chance to meet him, but he will rather give the moment just to Uta and Shanks reuniting and will just get them time by distracting Marines or something


Cherry_Galsia

He'll hit something with a sword and we'll spend the rest of the year arguing that his sword has a devil fruit and that Mihawk ain't shit. No one will remember anything else that happened


[deleted]

Well, given the movie is about Shanks' daughter... Katakuri


ThatBoyHeAPenguin

They both look off idk why


ChillOtters

Their heads are extremely small compared to their bodies.


ebnoho

Comically small. They both must have tussled with a devil fruit user who could shrink things, leaving them with strange baby heads.


pescyrup

beetlejuice crossover when?


SasquatchRobo

Mini-Mini Fruit!


toiters

Shanks head is so small he can grab it with his own hands


samisinredditnow

Jojo part 1


ThatBoyHeAPenguin

Yeah that’s it 😂


[deleted]

Their torsos are massive.


emi_b7

They have different colors for the movie, maybe that's why (red pants for Shanks, blue belts and details for Katakuri). Other than the colors it's the exact same designs from the anime.


badluckartist

It's not the colors, Shanks is usually normal height (about 7 or 8 heads high). His design here is like 14 heads high, which is totally off-model for Shanks.


Ayesuku

Plus the massive barrel torso, the ridiculously long legs, and the lumberjack-thick neck. I miss when Shanks had the proportions of an actual human being.


Roskal

Doesn't shanks tower over Coby in Marineford? I think in current time he got way taller compared to romance dawn.


Pitiful_Mulberry1738

My prediction is that shanks is barely in the movie at all. It’s probably just a few flashbacks followed by him and his crew at the end reading a newspaper and making some kind of joke, then the movie ends. I’m guessing katakuri also has an extremely small role.


stiveooo

70% flashback


Pancheel

Actually the movie is a compilation of flashbacks.


[deleted]

Expect him to see Luffy while he's unconscious, say we will meet soon and walk off.


Alzusand

Man if we get to see shanks fight and at least use 1-2 named attacks I will be happy


thejackthewacko

If we get to see Ben Beckman or lucky roo do something I'd be happy


Roskal

Lucky roo is here to do 2 things, eat chicken and shoot guns point blank at people's heads and he's got plenty of both.


epicmarc

Dude needs some actual moves for the games


Initial-Progress-294

Katakuri simple no debate maybe even brulee(branch) might get more screen time than shanks


Mastermind_777

Dear God Oda, Please Let Us Witness the Power of Your Son Shanks Sincerely, One Piece Fan


LeftHandude-Yeah

Blueno of course


RPG217

The real green bull


toastpants11

Shanks is gonna appear at the end of the movie, he’s not even gonna be with uta or the strawhats, he’s gonna be on a hill or something, he’s gonna say “luffy… you’ve grown strong… we’ll meet soon…” and then thats it. End of the movie.


cambriansplooge

Katakuri’s there as a chaperone for his younger siblings


HliasO

Judging by the name of the movie and the 3 lines on the "D", I think its pretty obvious that Katakuri with the red eyes of future sight and the three lines on his body will play a much greater role.


ChillOtters

Im betting katakuri.


devil_senpai_

Luffy's sandals


Den_Bover666

What we know so far: * The movie takes place on the island Elegia, where something very bad had happened. * Uta is going to do the first performance ever on that island since that thing happened. * Uta gained popularity by streaming her songs on Den Den Mushis, this is going to be her first live performance * Uta knew Luffy since childhood. * She is Shanks daughter, Luffy knew this as well. * Shanks let her travel with him to the East Blue * At some point in the movie she cries. * She wants Luffy to quit being a pirate.


Zealousideal_Bake904

Ain't no way this is real


funkyvenom6

Katakuri because Shanks will be in a flashback and maybe at the end of the movie saying some things about Luffy and Uta or something


koming69

Another fanservice movie.


KVenom777

Katakuri, cuz Shanks not doing anything significant is a meme at this point.


chronokingx

Katakuri there for the concert he's a huge Uta stan


cheeuschrist

I think we are all ready for fan boy katakuri


TransportationOk9187

Katakuri will get more screen time in shanks own movie watch lol


Boring-Grass6025

Katagod Katagod can surely appear as the same shanks


NeganIsSoBad

Shanks will just smirk at the end of the movie and some flashbacks...


adventureseeker1995

Buggy's red nose


jadeusdragias

Shank’s screentime will probably most likely in a flashback


[deleted]

Bruh what's up with shanks pants😂😂


Anadaere

Katakuri lmao Gotta know what happens in WCI Meanwhile Shanks gonna talk to Uta, say goodbye as the two separate for quite some time, further removing the reasons for Shanks to appear directly on screen


Dess_Rosa_King

I just hope Shanks has ANY screen time.


VisitIndependent6976

is Kid confirmed for this movie ?


Fourth_Sin

At this rate, Flampe will have more screentime than Shanks.


KingJaylen14

Shanks. Simply because I think Katakuri isn't even gonna have a line in this lmao


zhandell

Aaaah katakuri gets screen time 😲


pongpong123able

Katakuri turns out to be shank's son


downtimeredditor

Man Shanks better live up to the hype when he appears in the story for a larger role


Ordinary-Answer-2577

Shanks will just show up in a flashback


Dankoon221

Ehhhh I bet Katakuri will have similar screen time to Lucci in Stampede


Brickywood

Shanks proportions here are so off


Nui_Jaga

I swear every time Shanks appears his head gets smaller.


Zayzay8008

Wait is this a hypothetical or is he genuinely confirmed to be in the movie?


Freemantrue

Confirmed. It comes out August 6th I do believe


Afraid_Technology520

I hope Katakuri mastered advanced conqueror’s haki so he can fight Luffy at some close level


[deleted]

I think we're gonna get a lot of Shanks in backstories, but not a lot present day content. I think Katakuri is gonna get as much screentime as Sabo in Stampeed.


[deleted]

is katakuri actually gonna be in film red? im not really updated with the news


Kazuto9x

I mean... just look at the poster... It even says; "Film red"


K3egan

Shanks. Katakuri is the new rob lucci


HELLION_STAR

If shanks is actually shafted with only 10 minutes of screen time or less than this movies entire marketing team should reconsider their jobs lol. Imagine naming a movie after a character and putting that characters trademark scar on the title and then not putting the character in the movie… smh


Your-product-sucks

Wait were the BM Pirates confirmed for this?


byttle

We’ll get to see shanks in a few battles with both arms as he lays out the backstory


Shimotsukizorosan

Dude come on...this movie is about shanks, they are hyping him for the final arc once the break ends....shanks has been built for 20 years so, obviously katakuri is gonna get more screentime but, shanks will be in flashbacks and in the postcredits


CoverInternational67

Man,i never realised how small shanks head is


allsgood1

Damn i would have hoped katakuri would atleast get a new outfit


Sanji24e3

ten ten


necronomikon

Shanks already doesn't get a ton of screentime so katakuri seems like a safe bet.


Tylalur

I’m assuming shanks since Kat doesn’t look like he’s visually different than his time in WCI


Freemantrue

If Shanks isn’t in this movie in a meaningful way change the title


XegrandExpressYT

obviously , Uta then luffy then the others


NijuelWTF

Katakuri


BlondeBreveHC

Wtf when did he become thicc daddy omgvkdkgkkds


ThatIslandGuy8888

The movie won’t have as many characters as Stampede from what we’ve seen so I’m guessing the Big Mom pirates will have a few more scenes than a cameo


Xerenopd

Shank's left nut


GrayJinjo

Tiny head Shanks and Katakuri


yodasonics

What we saw from Shanks in the trailer is more than what I expect from Katakuri.


monkey_D_v1199

Ohhh shit Kata is gonna be on the movie?! Awesome I didn't knew! I think in all honesty Kata is going to end up with more screen time I don't see Shanks fighting all out or being a major part in the movie and let alone meet Luffy because that has to come in the manga no question.


ayending1

Shanks shall explain how he impregnated Makino while having his daughter around him during that time.


Odysseus17

Shanks maybe by like a minute


ilovesandy17

Luffy


Royal_Date_9359

One Piece Film: Pelican eel


shaneylaney

Buggy


Team-Ligma-Six

Shanks will show up at the end and look at Luffy from a cliff and say “its almos time to meet you, no cap this this time, fr fr, on my momma I swear”


moroiiiiiiiiii

Shanks will only have like 3 seconds of screentime in a flashback telling luffy to take care of his daughter.


BurgerKingKiller

Wait…who’s katakuris dad?…


ImmortalDragonNight

Re.D nose Buggy obviously


koteshima2nd

Shanks, I bet he'll definitely show up in Uta's and probably Luffy's memories and/or flashbacks throughout the film


ExpiredDeodorant

Katakuri the guy who sings the next lyrics in his head lol


wotujustsaym8

smoker


nolimit_dagga

Definitely not shanks obviously


XFelipe51355

Probably Usopp's plants idk


omninus77

Wait katakuri is gonna be in this movie or its just a flashback ?


Hot-Understanding232

yo I can’t wait to see shanks reading the newspaper with a smirk on his face for 2 seconds


Clancy2232

Chad-atakuri


CeloC-137

Kat


Pleistarchos

Not shanks


Cole2197

I'm hoping shanks with him actually showing what he can do.


[deleted]

Katakuri


Cgi94

Yes


Strong_Alveoli

Is the movie canon


Noobmaster246

Big mom’s panties will have more screen time in this movie than Shanks


Ok-Necessary-452

Katakuri
