"Red-Haired" Shanks also typically referred to as "Red Hair", is the captai of the Red Hair Pirates a member of the Four Emperors that rule over the New World He is likewise a previous member of the famous Roger Pirates, the only group to successfully conquer the Grand Line, where he began as a pirate as an apprentice. Especially, he is the pirate who inspired Monkey D. Luffy to go on his journey as a pirate, and his crewmate Lucky Roux found the Gomu Gomu no Mi that was unintentionally consumed by Luffy.
ContentsAppearanceEdit Shanks is a reasonably high man (just under two meters), durable, tan-complexioned, and in the prime of his mid-adulthood. Amongst the 4 Emperors previous and present he stands out as the smallest, most normal-sized by far, the others being different degrees of inhumanly proportioned. True to his epithet, Shanks has clearly red hair: generally depicted across media as deep-crimsonish. Deserving of note is that, uniquely amongst all characters yet seen, even ones with equivalent hair tone, Shanks' hair is the sole one filled with grayscale in the black-and-white manga (rather of tattooed black or left white). His first-seen hairstyle was a straight, middle-parted one kept loosely down to nape length, with shorter (at eye level), curtained bangs in the front. [5] In later appearances (at 10 years older), he is revealed with slightly longer hair, wavier and more slicked back than before except for some few strands he lets fall down the sides of his face, pressed further sideward than stated prior bangs.
On his face lives a secondary hallmark: a triple set of vertically parallel, direct scars that pass at an angle over his left (unblemished) eye, exposed to have actually been provided to him by Blackbeard some unidentified time prior to the start of the series. Additionally, Shanks' left arm is missing from below the deltoid, a result of him conserving Luffy from a Sea King when Luffy was a child.
As did his hair, Shanks' face modifications as the manga's art design advances: at first, it appeared more vibrant, a soft jawline tapering down to a little, pointy chin. Its functions were likewise milder than later on depictions and, save for his small nose, also larger, most so his plain-black eyes, topped by thin brows. [5] Later appearances show him more considerably countenanced, the square of his jaw, the sharper, narrower pair of eyes, and the chiseled, more prominently bridged nose lending him a manlier appearance. More consistent stays the man's facial hair, however, that he has constantly kept in a nicely thin connection of beard and mustache bristle, forming the starts of a circle beard.

Clothes-wise, Shanks utilized to use a specific straw hat acquired from Gol Additional reading D. Roger (his former captain) that was synonymous with his image until he passed it on to Luffy. Otherwise, his outfit always consists of a sweeping long, sleeveless black cape with a high collar (in the anime bearing a lighter, gray within), and under it a basic, white t-shirt half-buttoned up, exposing the middle of his chest and upper abs. Furthermore, Shanks is always seen wearing pants cut below the knee, gathered midway up the shin. At First (Chapter 1) the pair was a slightly loose, plain-brown one with golden buttons down the outer leg sides, and with a red sash around his waist to keep his shirt tucked inside. Later on, he is seen wearing a various, slightly baggier set of trousers with a green-yellow, indiscernible floral pattern (now revealing plenty leg hair), and his shirt is left out of his sash, which is now revealed holding his saber at his ideal side. Lastly, his shoes consists of simple brown sandals, their soles gray-studded. After the timeskip, he is at some point seen using various trousers yet again, light-colored with a rose pattern.
