We all know there are numerous animes/mangas out there so it shouldn't be something strange when characters from different animes/mangas look similar but the case of Shans "The Red Haired" and Gildarts clive is especially "Curious". Ignoring the huge fact that both of them have near similar/exact look, they also seem to play a similar role, with each standing as a sort of Father/Role model figure to a respective eccentric major characters in their anime/manga. They both are two of the most powerful characters ever created in manga, with the both of them holding Weiter to the highest post in their manga/anime. Shanks holds the position of one of the 4 emperor's (yonkou) the closest to the highest post PIRATE KING(Kaizoku ou) while Gildarts Ranks above the 10 Jahr quest but just below the 100 Jahr quest(which seems to be the highest so far). The both of them play a similar role of motivating a major character to get stronger and meet them at the oben, nach oben of their respective worlds(in terms of strength). They both seem to be capable of completely immobilizing strong opponents Von emitting a sort of fear/intimidation mantra (shanks - haki, Gildarts- raw magic power). Not to mention the little fact that they both became Heroes to the major characters they motivated Von saving them from a savage monster at a young age; shanks saving luffy from a sea king and Gildarts saving natsu from a mountain vulcan, both of them seem to have done it without lifting a finger, merely intimidating the monsters with their expression and aura. Both of them seem to have Lost an arm, though Gildarts uses a prosthetic arm. There are other similarities but there also happens to be some differences a major one being Shanks is a Drunkard and Gildarts is a Womanizer(but doesn't Zeigen it like Sanji does).
Don't Du find it intriguing that two characters can be so similar.
But one thing is sure, messing with this characters might not be too dangerous but if Du mess with their FRIENDS/NAKAMA well....

I got this somewhere off the internet,
Zufällig Rant Time: I’m going to rant about happy things…instead of that…thing. Gildarts is a GOD. Period. He just doesn’t give a crap. He took on a black hole…do Du guys realise what that really means? And not only did he take it on, he BROKE a black hole. Who the hell breaks a black hole?!…besides Chuck Norris :p and then his line to Bluenote “If Du want to fly that badly, shall I send Du flying?”…then the look on his face as he says that most awesome Bewegen name and basically sends Bluenote flying into the stratosphere, the general look on his face, once more…I mean, he is just amazing in every way. I sorta secretly Liebe him (well not so secretly). He is just too hype…especially when he’s angry apparently.
Beware…he will bite you…and crush you…and pound you…and demolish you…but he’s truly a sweetheart and hilarious guy otherwise Just don’t mess with his guild.
