Kaido for me, the whole "falling from sky island" thing was done to hype him up, and hype him up it did.

Shanks' greatest hype is being the MC's mentor. His clash with WB and Akainu also add to his hype, but those are feats and they lead to debates (unlike pure undebeatable hype).

We've not seen enough of both crews to judge, but Shanks' crew seem to be closer to him, and are not division commanders/mini-captains (like the calamities). The calamities might be stronger than some of them, but Shanks' crew give off a more badass vibe.

Shogun and calamities aren't really hype considering the calamities will be on the same level as ace/marco/katakuri and the shogun is the shogun, he isn't Kaido or in his crew, but they do have ties. The only hype for Kaido is being unable to receive damage, and that he's the strongest creature. But even that isn't that great with how many times he's actually been defeated and captured. The difference between kaido and wb is that wb was the strongest MAN while Kaido is just the strongest creature.

As for shanks besides matching WBs haki, his hype is basically being one of the final opponents for luffy

Shanks lost an arm to a sea monster and was sucker stricken by a pre-fruit BB. Kaido would overpower him to the point where Shanks would beg for a swift, merciless and righteous ending.

Shanks doesn't have hype if I remember. We only know he stopped Kaido from going to war and he came. That and he is a Yonkou.

You're delusional if you say Shanks.

It's only logical to say Shanks because of the delayed hype.

Shanks was there in chapter 1 and he will be relevant again in the end. And Big Mom and Kaidou have their hype now but they will go down before Shanks comes into play. And according to shounen logic that will mean you're stronger, if you're closer to the end.

Shanks' lack of hype and all the flying under the radar will mean he will make up for it later. These yonkou names have been dropped since water 7 but the real Big Mom and Kaidou hype is only like 50 chapters old at this point. So there is no point in rushing it.

Oda will bless Shanks with all the hype he needs when the time is right.

But for now Kaidou

For now it's Kaidou. But as mentioned before Shanks is kinda Luffy's altimate goal to surpass so there is a good chance Shanks will turn out to be stronger in the end. Don't quote or send salt my way, we just will have to wait and see.

Fighting Shanks has NEVER been Luffy's ultimate goal.

Kaido's hype is quite literally "He is the strongest living thing of all living things and will win any 1 on 1 fight." Get outta here.
The next level after Gear4th hype is bigger than Kaidou and Shanks's hype combined.

Completely wrong i will guarantee you that Jack is the weakest amongst Kaido men and his bounty>Crackers and Smoothies plus his feats shits on both of theirs as well.
he isn't Kaido or in his crew, but they do have ties. The only hype for Kaido is being unable to receive damage, and that he's the strongest creature. But even that isn't that great with how many times he's actually been defeated and captured.

Doesn't matter how many times Kaido got captured it was never a 1 on 1 seeing as it said if it is a 1 on 1 always bet on Kaido. You realize men/man are considered in the creature thing right? Kaido is the strongest creature on the land and in the seas.


As for shanks besides matching WBs haki, his hype is basically being one of the final opponents for luffy
Finale opponent for Luffy no when was a fight between Luffy and Shanks ever hinted or even set up????
Lol this guy.

And I can make an argument for why marco > jack
And oda didn't say in a one on one bet on kaido, a character in the series did, and if you count that as oda than I guess oda also said chopper is the shs pets, which is completely wrong. And I didn't say shanks was the final opponent, I said ONE OF THE final opponents. So you argued with yourself on that one, congratulations. And shanks doesn't have to be an opponent, it's obvious he will be one of the very last people oda officially introduces again.
