๐๏ธ
Full hand, effort required
Powerful figure prioritizing strategic non-intervention over direct conquest, serving as a distant catalyst for protagonist growth.
Matchup frame
General matchup
The comparison is strongest when power scale, story role, and DNA dimensions are kept separate until the final read.

Analysis
YPS-3
Clear power gap
YPS-5
Shanks holds a meaningful power lead. A 2-tier gap is bridgeable only by exploiting scenario and DNA advantages aggressively. DNA tells a different story: Gyomei Himejima: moral cost they'll pay, Shanks: who they fight for. These are different character shapes, not different power levels.
