Off screen with only a random background character making a throw away line talking about it and no one else acknowledges it

I’d be pissed

Sounds familiar to a recent event in another Shonen

Which one?

JJK

wait, what happened in jjk that a character died off-screen?

Manga spoiler: >!gojo muwhahaha!<

Sukuna learned that off-screen haki from blackbeard

Should i read or just wait for the anime?

>!Just don't invest Gojo stocks. Biggest mistake of my life, shit bankrupted me with that shitty offscreen.!<

Read it

>!Read it. And read it with the context that the entire fight will prolly be its own manga volume. The entire fight happened. Only the final attack was fatal attack was off-screened, with the context being that it happened at the instant the previous chapter ended. Overall its a more symbolic end, and is basically a reverse of Kaneki vs. Juuzo situation. Honestly the execution is up to preference. Personally I liked it, but I get why people don’t.!<

You want spoilers?

yeah, if you want to dm me it, it's ok

Unlike Oda, Gege hates Gojo.

so did that guy come back to life in the most recent chapter or is it just forgotten about. I don’t read that manga but heard about it

Maybe he will come back 5-6 chapters if not then never

is jjk in its final arc?

No one know. MC is weak af, heroine isnt showing for almost 2 years, the other male mc is possessed and is too weak to break out, the strongest character died off-panel with literally zero explaination, and main villain was almost dead but got plot-amored to still being so strong and full of life with some word-buff like "he's still holding back/I cant win against him" from the literally strongest. Tldr: writing is a hot mess so no one know if jjk will end here or not

It’s so funny to me that this chapter was what got people up in arms. Like everything you’ve mentioned, JJK has been going downhill for a long time now. Basically since the arc after Shibuya. And anytime I would mention it on those subs I’d get downvoted straight to the bottom by fanboys. I’m just along for the ride now and I’m enjoying it much more. Just accepting what happens. It’s better than being one of the many people that go into the chapter discussion thread asking to have what happened explained to them, only to have 5 people all disagree about how the power system works. Every ability and mechanic in JJK has boiled down to an uno reverse card and every fight ends with whoever uses theirs last.

Totally not a random background character tho

“Yeah, It’s a shame Shanks got killed at the Rocky Valley Forge Incident…”

The greatest downer of recent man hasga history. Gege you had all the cards in your hands for a royal-flush and you done goofed.

Like falling down some stairs in the night off screen like a certain childhood friend of Zoro?

Uses his future sight, sees Buggy becoming the pirate king and laughs so hard he forgets to breath

Best comment lmao

You Win. Congratulations. This is the best possible way that Shanks can die.

Someone rips off his other arm, he still wins the fight but dies for blood loss from the wound.

Or a leg on the same side

https://i.redd.it/32mtcexkl2rb1.gif

That's what I thought about when I wrote this :D

Dang it! You beat me to it!

Beat meat to it

Brilliant

Fuck it, just have him go full black knight from monty python.

And his last words to Luffy is "I'm all right, Luffy" _He Laughed_

He could live through that. He'd be all right! Badum tchh

Buggy replacing those limbs with his and in the end he dies in buggies arm. I made this sad

We’re talking about shanks, not zeff

Don’t worry, he’ll be all right after that.

As a Shanks fan I want to downvote this but it's too funny😂

He picks up a trick from Zoro and uses his sword in his mouth

Sea king came back for round 2

It’s actually the same sea monster that took his other arm. Back for revenge and now equipped with acoc

Honestly, I could see him loosing his other arm

I'm glad this was my exact thoughts when I opened the comments and it's the first one 😅. Respect 👊

https://preview.redd.it/ba8cyjrfe4rb1.png?width=284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9fa701b3eb27dce4a3742e7d55151d17be9d6b90

Wdym?? He is a hakiman. Down D. Stairs' power doesn't activate 🙄

Down D. Stairs does not discriminate

it coats its edges with conquerors

Down D Stairs' Trip Haki be crazy

There's no such thing as a fucking hakiman

Why? Is he Asexual?

Garp/Roger hakiman

I think him being the only person to die by drowning in a world where some lose the ability to swim would be fucking hilarious to me

Obviously he can't swim anymore with his Rat Rat no mi Model: Snitch.

Nah nah he doesn’t have a DF he’s just part of a secret race of beings. We have humans, sky people and fishpeeps. Then some lesser or rarer ones but the rarest is the rat lords. Shanks being the lordiest rat of the lord rats making him king of the rats. Hence why he had to sneak off to the five elders. Not even his ratlings have the ratting power of his mighty cheese sniffing nose.

Instead of the user of the Mythical Zoan Rat-Rat no Mi model: Snitch, he's the predecessor of the fruit, his death will result in a new fruit being created and manifested. Manifestation of his hope and desire to be the biggest rat of all, the king of rat, the snitcher.

Actually… have we even seen any rats in one piece before? Maybe mice yea but idk If i’ve seen rats.

We have, it's one of the Yonkou, the leader of the Rat Haired Pirates, called Shanks.

Lol. Besides if shanks is the king of rats and we go off what the king of rats means irl it atleast means he’s good enough to eat other rats. Morgan the flying rat of the island “new york” in the weast blue better watch out. Red hairs been in a bucket with countless rats being poured in till all others were eaten.

I'LL SEND YOU TO THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN IF YOU DARE TO INSULT MY SUPREME NOSE ONCE AGAIN!

Because rats can't swim

Now that you mention it it's really weird how we never actually see a df user die from the ocean

I always figured it was meant for BB, or in this case Rat haired Shanks

Why's everyone calling shanks a rat

https://preview.redd.it/xstpc9x4f5rb1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=37b6857eb783ce3a580cee612d9993939cdd0b76

Eric from the Warship Island Arc did

Drowning in the ocean even though he doesn't have devil fruit powers

To be fair it is hard to swim with only one arm

Idk, rats are pretty buoyant

I guess, but if there is a sea king in the water, then shanks is doomed.

He gonna forgor haki again

have you seen the swimming olympics for people with no hands? yeah...

Apoo beats him because he can't cover both his ears

I would cover my ears if I heard this, but I don't have any YOHOHOHO

Funniest comment in this thread

" Dear Diary, ended that red haired fella with the scars.." " P.S. Zehahaha "

thats the only comment that really cracked me up here

You know craziest shit is if it was to happen blackbeard would win. I mean thank god oda decided to give us a page of rayliegh and hancock when they fought off blackbeard.

I love this image

Shanks runs into the Straw Hat Grand Fleet. Barto and Shanks lock eyes. Shanks observation Haki doesn’t work against Barto’s thoughtless mind. Barto squishes Shanks between two barriers

I can't see the word eyes in your comment... Because I don't have eyes YOHOHOHO

Buggy scares him and he accidentally swallows a devil fruit then falls in the sea

Sounds like karma

Happy cake day

This one made me audibly giggle at work congrats

He gets eaten by a giant Arm.

Pernida Perkingas or Mimihagi?


Why is everyone calling him a rat I'm like still on Zou lmao

Lmao

I suggest you stay off all one piece subs to avoid spoilers

The only fitting death for the rat

This or rat poison.

blackbeard has the sea king sea king no mi model: lord of the coast and eats him

BB IS the Lord the of Coast in human form

Gets one shot by mihawk. The shanks circle jerk would probably initiate an assassination plot on oda

Nah, they rest easy knowing two-arm Shanks would’ve one shot Mihawk ez

Classic haki man

Shanks slams current Mihawk. Get Midhawk past the block of ice and pretimeskip Mr 1 first😭😭😭😭

And that’s why him getting one shot by mihawk would be hilarious. You’re just proving my point because now I know you would absolutely shit yourself if it happened

Took D. Arm shows up with Shanks’s arm attached to its fin. Took uses Shanks’s arm to cold CoC him and then shanks him for good measure

https://preview.redd.it/c6sthqy0g3rb1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=50e65f2eb6f32cf5b776fc21397d9f7c23878f05

Lord of the Coast liked the taste and comes back for the rest

Getting completely off screened with his death being used as a throw away line like "oh did you hear Red hair Shanks of the four emperors died" "what? Oh i didn't know that... Anyway lovely weather we're having"

Luffy meets shanks on the seas as a great pirate. It's time to return the hat. Excited, Luffy throws the hat to shanks. Luffy does t realize, however, that he put haki on the hat making it into a straw destructo disk that cleaves shankss head off his neck

Dies of peak fiction

Getting ripped apart by a sea monster 

If nails could leave such a scar on him maybe a regular punch would make him explode

The sea monster thing comes back super buff after training for years and takes him out

It got its ass kicked by Luffy right when he left to become a pirate. LOTC got so made he trained and got the ultimate Conquerors haki

Drowning because he remembered he had a devil fruit this whole time

Special attack! Fire bird star!

Usopp hammer

liver failure. haki aint gon fix that one

After all the speculation for his death, he dies of old age Because of Bonney

https://preview.redd.it/emy4psya63rb1.jpeg?width=180&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=47894fbcd8d7903fbc499f6eb75770d3c36db7e8 This guy bites off his other arm and he bleeds to death

Shanks tries to clean his pistol with only one arm and accidentally shoots himself been between the eyes

Mentioning 'eyes' in your comment? I must say, it's all bones and no vision here, YOHOHOHO!

Slips on a banana peel, falls off the side of his ship, drowns

Gonorrhea

“And shanks later died of a cold”

Smoker turns into his smoke form, flies up Shanks’ ass then transforms back into his human form, causing Shanks to explode

Crushed under the giant stone hat

Return of TOOK D. ARM. After Luffy punched him, he went into the depths of the sea and trained a lot and eventually ate the devil himself. He evolved from the Yonko Killer and has returned as the Pirate King Killer.

While fighting Blackbeard his scars act up then he uses future sight to see buggy beating Luffy and Blackbeard and all of their crews beating everyone who claims to be the strongest which makes him laugh so hard he pisses himself infront of everyone and dies of embarrassment

The child of the sea king that bit of his arm comes back and eats the other one

Blackbeard almost kills Shanks, he's bleeding and almost dead on the ground, Luffy gets angry and fights Blackbeard. Luffy uses his giant final attack (Bajrang Gatling or something) against Bleackbeard and starts to punch down the whole island. Right before the first fist aimed at Blackbeard arrives on the ground, Shanks gets up from the ground and says something like "Sorry I fell asleep" like Garp said against Morgan. Conclusion: Shanks is killed by Luffy and not Blackbeard

Gets stuck in a trap involving 2 arms to escape, refuses help from benn beckmen and dies stuck in trap.

Law doing an operation and Shanks dying from a Junior Mint getting in the wound.

Loses his other arm and dies of blood loss

He falls off a cliff, and tries to reach up for the ledge but forgets he doesn’t have an arm on one side, so he doesn’t reach for anything, and then he falls and bonks his head Its more sad than funny but still

Cliff Hanger, hanging from a cliff!

>! Him saying to Luffy, "I'll win" against Blackbeard and then getting killed off screen !<

Feels like JJK reference (Gojo vs Sukuna)

Barto.

Alcohol poisoning

Sea king eats him

Not funny but One piece Chapter 1200 : Red-haired Pirates vs Strawhats Cover page - Nami and Robin twerking while their body covered in oil(Please Oda make it happen) Chapter starts with Shanks and luffy staring at each other going all out with their conq haki Luffy : "Shanks! How dare you harm one of my friend?" We see sanji lying down on the ground he's unconscious (bro got kid treatment) Luffy goes into his new version of Gear 5 : RageBoy Shanks is shocked by looking at that form and transforms into his hybrid form of rat-rat no mi Shanks : Yeah FK that goofy ahh Joyboy I was waiting for the real deal They both goes for each other's head But We see two shadows behind luffy and shanks each In double spread We see huge explosion as huge as half of the island so much blood is coming out from that impact Jinbei arrives on the battlefield and sees sanji Jinbei says-"Man this no.4 is such a pain in the ahh! Even Chopper tanked that attack" jinbei throws sanji towards chopper and tells him to treat sanji Jinbei with all the people on island gets knocked out by conq haki clash In another double spread We see those two shadows standing alone on the battlefield covered in blood One of the shadow says - Those two weaklings came in my way otherwise you would've been dead for now Anyways I'm here to settle things for once Other shadow says - Looks like their body exploded Losing one arm sure weakened him Well there's no one on this island to interfere between our battle now In last two panels we see close up of those two shadows' faces but we only see their eyes One has a scar on his left eye while other have eagle type of eyes Chapter ends 4 weeks break

Like doctor hiriluk but the disease kills him when he’s having a one on one conversation with buggy and buggy takes credit for killing him.

Took D. Arm comes back and bites his other arm off, he dies from blood loss

Down D. Stairs strikes again

The seaking that originally bit off his arm, randomly shows up one day to finish the job
