No clue what Oda’s plans are for Shanks after 1083 but for now I'm sticking with what’s been rattling around in my head for like 2 years about him:

Shanks’ mom, Astra, (and his ancestors) were members of the Holy Knights and Shanks is the first one in his family line in ~800 years to be born outside of that!

#chapter 1083 #this is going along with what's been hinted at in 1083 but like #obviously the shanks theory can change in an instant #but i always imagined his mother (and ancestors) were protectors/knights for the celestial dragons #and oda simply gave me a sweet ass name #also for now i like holy knights over god's knights translation #(this may also change tbh )#anyway this is my personal theory/headcanon for shanks as to why he's *so special*#until oda shows me who that silhouette is it ain't shanks #(i don't think it is bc Sword Too Short .... )#evil twins welcome tho #i still need to write more hardrada lore #to explain it a bit more #but thanks for the cool ass name oda i dig it #poppy's shanks lore be upon ye #HEADCANON.#HARDRADA.
