  • Yang Xiao Long vs Katsuki Bakugou: They erroneously scale Yang to Low 7-B and she APstomps
  • Ruby vs Maka: Maka massacres or Ruby finally gets a massive amp in a future season of RWBY and takes it
  • Kyle vs Simon: Kyle loses to Simon’s 11D scaling
  • Omni-Man vs Bardock: Unless they get a higher end for Viltrum’s destruction than us (or use any of the higher-end Invincible interpretations) Bardock solidly wins
  • Joker vs Giorno: What he said
  • Asura vs Atrocitus: Herald scaling go brrrr
  • Piccolo vs Martian Manhunter: Goes without saying
  • Deku vs Miss Marvel or K.O.: Deku beats Marvel with serious difficulty or gets annihilated by K.O.
  • Thor vs Vegeta: Vanilla Thor wins via speed and hax, if Thor gets his current form w/ Skyfather scaling he just APstomps
  • Trunks vs Silver: Under Volume scaling Silver dies horribly to multipliers. Silver’s Psychokinesis would surprisedly be able to stop Trunks’ movements due to Dragon Ball’s subpar Lifting Strength, but it won’t matter if Silver can’t hurt him
  • Discord vs Bill: They call bullshit on Bill being a universe/multiverse buster and Discord takes it via IDW feats

I think they confirmed that Deku is fighting Gon once MHA finishes. It’s in its final arc iirc

Okay, so I ended up watching the Akuma vs Shao Kahn fight a couple times now to form an opinion on it, the research was meh, refer to certain comments about a certain crossover above, but otherwise it wasn't too terrible, I think the fight was better than what some others have said, and the double fakeout at the end with the chest punch, get up, Raging Demon, counter was a great mix up at the end...BUT....the pacing of the fight was actually terrible, Akuma WHIPPEd through his his forms in like seconds, and they both only really did some signature moves once, when they're known to be some of the spammiest bastards in gaming. Not to mention it felt like the quality of the animation dropped significantly over the course of the fight, starting out alright, but quickly lowering as it went on until the rushed end....speaking of which....the kill, it was alright, but man did it lack impact and felt weirdly censored, though I do think the Kahn turning his back at the end with the green flame was a great callback to Akuma's raging daemon, albeit comedically a hole in his chest vs the kanji Ten.... over all I'd give the episode as a "hole" 6.5/10 it's no Blakisa or Macho-Aids but it's still far from what we COULD have gotten

Long story short
Okay/Decent
 
Already here's my thoughts on the next fight

Hey, OK KO is well remembered....I think

OK KO is one of those shows that honestly is just sad to think about, it got completely ****** over because of politics (literal government politics not the corpetate kind) and had to be rework it. It had a lot of neat ideas that that were exicuted terribly. If it were to be remembered it'd be the ideas of the show instead of the series itself, also for the girls since unlike most modern cartoons they're attractive.

I mean TBF we also call bs on Bill being a universe/multiverse buster so not an unheard of option. Also is Yang really Bakugo’s best opponent?

How was it ruined because of politics?

I presume this OKKO is something turned horribly wrong in plot (because of external influence), related to politics, and is something very America specific. (To contrast, Steven Universe and Star vs the Forces of Evil are also very political but their effects go way more worldwide. While SVTFOE does go down because of politics and some plot issues, SU is more of plot itself and not much about politics.)

Either Galactus vs Unicron or Samus vs Master Chief can happen as the finale. And I hope it's the former.

I also hope it is the former, or an alternative, neither. (Galactus vs Unicron can arguably be saved for the 2022 Transformers movie, and Samus Aran vs Master Chief has died down so no point of wasting time to do something totally boring and nothing new - to contrast Doom Slayer vs Master Chief has rework value because Doom Slayer totally has something new that would overthrow the previous verdict.)

Why Korra vs Storm when both Korra and Storm have way better alternative choices...

They simply chickened out. It's not going to be a popular choice/fight. Googling the fight results in very few thumbnails and pictures. The other choice(better) is way more popular.

A shame.
