Mihawk rarely lets anyone know what he is thinking. His expressions are neutral or mildly amused, and he does not give away his thoughts easily. This makes him incredibly difficult to gauge, Mihawk is deeply independent and self-sufficient, living in seclusion on Kuraigana Island, where he seems content with his solitude. Mihawk rarely speaks unless necessary. When he does, his words are sharp, deliberate, and often laced with dry humor or cold observation, or passive, he never loses his calm.
