The Kung Fu Panda fights The Mad Dog

Well this popped into my mind, might as well try it.

• Speed is equalised
• Legends of Awesome Po at 8-C is being used
• Majima is of course 8-C
• Neither have optional equipment
• Fight takes place in the rooftop stage from Tekken 4
• SBA otherwise

Goro Majima

Goro Majima (真島 吾朗, Majima Gorō). A lieutenant of the Shimano family, Shimano's right-hand man and head of the Majima Family, Majima is an acquaintance of Kazuma Kiryu with a twisted sense of loyalty. His temper and lack of mercy earned him the nickname "the Mad Dog of the Shimano Family"...

Wuxi finger hold.

Majima's position doesn't look too good. Firstly, Po has a 4x AP advantage over him as well as an overwhelming LS advantage. One grab is enough to set up an incap move on Majima, and that isn't counting the Wuxi Finger Hold. Po's Attack Reflection allows him to deflect our Mad Dog's lightning and tornadoes, and some of his techniques can blind or paralyse him (though it might be covered by Majima's Status Effect resistance). An argument can be made whether Po usually goes for Wuxi Finger Hold in LOA or even first move in general (profile states he does it to very dangerous opponents).

On the flip side, Panda has to deal with Majima's aura clones that are indistinguishable from the real Majima when he pops that off, and each one should retain the original body's abilities. This leads to the next point; Heat. Being speed equal, Majima's speed will increase thanks to his accumulating heat aura, and while not as notable, he should have slightly more AP/Dura than he previously had before being amped by the heat aura. Majima's counters are also going to be annoying for Po, and he has one for practically every style he has (Breaker Style Guard Break Counter and the Mad Dog Counter will particularly be a pain in the ass). Majima not only has regeneration, but he can also heal up with Staminan Royales that also refuel his heat back (not that it matters cuz Majima's heat doesn't really deplete anymore). With his enhanced speed, perception manip and his innate Acrobatics, he should be able to finesse through Po's moves and counter accordingly should the first method not work. Also he gets first dibs by punching the ground and attacking Po with shockwaves. I almost forgot that Majima has fear manip, which would disorient Po at least.

Another thing to note is that he has stalemated a similar opponent to Po before, albeit his full potential in that fight couldn't come out due to being tortured prior to that particular fight. His own kyoudai, Saejima. Despite being far stronger than Majima, he's able to stalemate with this legend even with his predicament. Another notable character would be Jo Amon, who's one of the most skilled in Yakuza as well as having one of the most varied movesets with random bullshit go ahh stuff. Majima defeated Jo Amon. Someone like Po would make for a challenge, but everyone's idol should be able to hold his own here.

TBH I make it sound easy, but it's a very big tossup between Majima winning with high diff or Po just incapping him right there and then.

 

[Arkansalter2]

Po just incapping him right there and then.

Po has an egregious LS advantage. Nothing is stopping him from just Wuxi Finger Holding him and just... yeah it'll be GGs.

 

[Stillwinston]

Wuxi finger hold.

Still has to land a grab though, Majima has canonically fought grapplers like Saejima. Not to mention Majima is indistinguishable from his clones so the wrong one might get grabbed

On the topic of AP Majima did his feat when he was badly injured and it was casual. Plus iirc Yakuza scaling chains are whacked, Amons can one shot their previous versions and Majima does fight one in his new game. Plus he can amp further

Nothing is stopping him from just Wuxi Finger Holding him and just... yeah it'll be GGs.

Except that it wouldn't really be Po's first move.
The profile states:
"If his opponent poses a significant threat, Po will use the Wuxi Finger Hold on them, and he considers this to be his best move."
Po's not likely to use that as a first move on someone he has an advantage on. However, what he can do is to grab and use other incapping moves on Majima. And that's if it hits and is the right Majima caught in the hold. I'm not saying it isn't an easy wincon for him, it's one he's not likely to use at the start.

On the topic of AP Majima did his feat when he was badly injured and it was casual. Plus iirc Yakuza scaling chains are whacked, Amons can one shot their previous versions and Majima does fight one in his new game. Plus he can amp further

Majima's profile really needs to be updated. No, all of RGG profiles have to be updated. The substantial heat amps aren't reflected in his stats.

 

[Stillwinston]

Bump? Also should ask what's Po's skill feats again? Majima has canonically defeated members of the Amon clan, even the weakest of whom are masters of all martial arts mankind ever made iirc

 

[TheAngryOrange]

I'll read through this thread later. But in terms of skill feats.

Po learned kung fu in record time and defeated Tai Lung. A kung fu master so great they needed to go overkill on his prison to contain him and he escaped using a goose feather. Plus Tai Lung bested I won't say all but some of the greatest kung fu warriors at the time including the Furious Five and Sifu. He has only been bested by Master Oogway.

It wasn't just that Po defeated him. These masters were not only the best in the land but spent decades in training. How long Po was in training is not described but it's nowhere near a year. And he learned enough to defeat Tai Lung.

He's faced down Shen's cannons. Weapons specifically meant to defeat Kung Fu and demonstrated as such when they were used to kill Master Rhino. And potentially subdue Master Croc and Master Ox.

He stood toe to toe against Kai, a warrior who should be around the equal of Oogway. Now to be fair, he did lose. He just lost slower than everyone else who lost against Kai. But he did learn to master qi in, once again, record time.

Extending on this, when Kai stole the qi of his victims he effectively can turn them into 'jade zombies' as they were referred to. Basically mind controlled versions of the original warrior. And Kai captured several legendary kung fu masters including Master Porcupine and the Master Badger Twins. And Po once again fought them. Not even seriously as he got a painter to paint a portrait of him fighting them and had time to grab and pose with Porcupine.

And finally he fought Chameleon who out of anger from being smol, used sorcery to steal the Kung Fu skills and abilities of every master in the spirit realm including Shen, Kai, and Tai Lung. And she even stole Po's own abilities. I used the term 'fought' instead of defeated as it was Zhen who defeated her. However it was also revealed that Po intentionally let himself get trapped so Zhen could be the one to take down Chameleon. But until that point he was holding his own against her.

I never watched Legends of Awesomeness so maybe he has more stuff in there. But this is from the movies.

 

[Stillwinston]

Nice nice, I'll lay down some more feats for Majima here rq

Yakuza 0 - Back when he more or less first started out he was able to develop three entire (later 4) complex fighting styles involving weapons and acrobatics and got the ideas just from seeing people do random shit like dancing. He mastered said styles over the course of just a few days to a couple of weeks iirc yakuza 0 isn't long timeline wise. Said styles let him use a baseball bat to block bullets and attacks without even looking at them too.

Majima also proves himself to be more superior to the likes of the Mr Shakedowns, which included Hiroya Egashira (A hulking giant of a man who in his drive to be stronger did things like wrestling tigers and bears, endured extreme temperatures with no clothes, travelled to eastern bloc military bases, studied from ancient hermits and even swam to the bottom of the deepest trenches.) and Majima is far superior to this guy.

He's also superior to the likes of the fighters from the bed of styx, an underground fighting ring that involves fighting with various conditions. Fighters in there include Dead Puncher, a boxer stated to have an 80-0-0 record with all his fights being death bouts. As well Komaki, a master of the Komaki style who had decades of experience and uses techniques that Kiryu would later use.

There's also the Amon feat, the clan get crazy later into the series including things like floating in mid air and throwing explosive levitating umbrellas.

 

[Shadowslash125]

We specifically using Y0 feats only?
The feats afterwards are also as crazy as it gets.

 

[Stillwinston]

I started with Y0 cause got a hectic work week lol drop some on your end and help out a man who works 10hr shifts back to back lol
