Thought alone
Betrayal cauterizes empathy. Darkness as load-bearing trait, bonds gated by utility.

Matchup frame

General matchup

The comparison is strongest when power scale, story role, and DNA dimensions are kept separate until the final read.

Analysis

Clear power gap
YPS-5

Hajime Nagumo holds a meaningful power lead. A 2-tier gap is bridgeable only by exploiting scenario and DNA advantages aggressively. DNA tells a different story: Hajime Nagumo: self-determination and identity, Shanks: constant growth arc. These are different character shapes, not different power levels.
