it's hard to surprise him, he rarely smiles. He never unnecessarily shows emotions on the battlefield, even when he is outnumbered. He shows a sense of honor. He is proud of his swordsmanship, believing that the notch on his sword is stain on the reputation of a swordsman. Mihawk spends most of his time alone, but he doesn't mind having company with people like Shanks and Perona. He also shows a sense of hospitality. Despite his apathetic behavior, Mihawk is able to show concern and compassion.
