Character DNA / 6 Dimensions
The Rising of the Shield Hero
NAOFUMI IWATANITrust shattered then re-crystallized into chosen kin. Darkness as scar tissue, not ambition.
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-5
Slight power edge
YPS-4
Monkey D. Luffy has a slight tier edge, but one tier rarely decides outcomes. DNA becomes the real tiebreaker. DNA tells a different story: Monkey D. Luffy: how much the universe protects them, Naofumi Iwatani: constant growth arc. These are different character shapes, not different power levels.
