There is Yoru, but i dont think they'd do a match about a character who hasn't even been animated yet

Asa/Yoru have popular mu's, and Makima could get a runback, but yeah, that's about it for CSM on DB.

Good, I don't want them on Death Battle anyway. They're pretty firmly on the list of characters I'd rather not watch get brutally murdered, again.
There is still Yoru, though. She could get a MU one day, likely when Part 2 gets animated.

People were telling me it was gonna rival Gojokuna only for it to go on and on and ON with the WORST pacing known to humanity.

Were people seriously saying that? Bruh
Denji vs Yoru was a low point, but Chainsaw Man has NEVER had better fights than JJK (referring to the manga specifically, some of the anime fights are really good), what are we talking about here? I'll glaze Part 1 all day, but you ain't ever gonna catch me focusing on the fights lmao.

They really disappointed people that wanted Gru vs Megamind to be among their best fights in kickstarter era and yet...

Yoru will take god knows how long to get animated
She's a 2030 and idk how long DB will stay in the game until she's get animated

Yoru vs Denji was hilarious because CSM glazers were trying to gas up a fight that was awful. The pacing, the art, the h2h combat/fight, and then led to one of the worst endings of modern shonens. **** that fight and **** part 2.

Torian was lost from Death Battle, DevilArtemis was lost from Death Battle, no offense to the new animator, but these guys done far better, even if they had their downs too

...Asa was still pretty cool, I liked her. Wish she, uh, got to do anything interesting later into story, but still. I can't hate her, at least.

Curious where the story would go if that happened, because what we have now feels pretty definitive. Unless you (in the general sense, not you specifically) believe that-

The episode was mid. I larp Megamind through yt summaries and I don’t have much attachment to Despicable me other than 2, so I don’t have much of an attachment to the characters coming in, but it was certainly a let down. The minions highkey carried the episode, most of the banter was good and the death was very funny. The analyses were okay. Everything else was pretty lame ngl Wiz, I was especially let down by the beam clash between Mel and the Death Ray (mainly the lack therof of any struggle) because I really liked the Mega Minions in DM 4.
Overall a 4.5 outta ten, this really isn’t a good sign for the quality of the series going forward, as nothing has really broken 7/10 for me this year other than Metal vs Cell.

Mfw they bring up the nuke argument for the shape of the mushroom clouds made when it hit Gru but they didn't extend the same reasoning for Scout when the same clouds happened when they hit him:

Honestly I am more pissed that we have more ShonenOverSaturation in the series than that this ep was mid.
Out of the 5 confirmed episodes for this year, 4 of them have Shonen reps, 3 of them are Shonen vs Shonen (the other is Shonen vs Sonic which is basically Shonen Anime the video game series), two of them are Shonen mc vs Shonen mc, and two have characters from the same franchise, and those two are only separated by one episode.
These statistics are ******* absurd, it’s on the level of Capeshit Marvel vs DC slop in seasons 7-10.
They especially make me worry for the possibilities of getting either of my most wanteds (Freddy Fazbear vs Frankenstein’s Monster and Zomboss vs Cortex), considering the lack of mainstream popularity for them in the demographics that would care for DB and vs battles as a whole.

First character to ever actively be about to stop a Death Battle fight from escalating into a death and immediately gets merc'd for it.

I think what tilts me so much about all this is that all three categories they gave are just utter nonsense if you took a bit of time to even look up what they're capable of:
Arsenal: They neglected to mention any of Megamind's more powerful kit and for some reason equalized them which is annoying because their weapons and tech are NOT comparable at all. Megamind has a serum to replicate Metroman's powers, and a rocket launcher that teleports you to an alternate dimension. You can't just scale them to one weapon (Shrink Ray) and not bring up literally every other weapon that could potentially counter one another's just comes across as biased from the jump.
Minions: Right, this one's just incredibly asinine. Claiming that one brainbot can't handle one minion isn't even true. A whole bunch of them were capable of restraining Tighten for 12 to 15 seconds, or hold back a fallen skyscraper thrown by him; hell, they were even able to fly just as fast if not even faster than him too. Tighten's already a bloodlusted Metro Man who's shoot-to-kill from the get-go so it makes zero sense to give the minions all that scaling but leave practically none for the brainbots. At best, it's very sloppy research, and at worst, it's mendacious.
Skill: This one's pissed me off the most lmao. You cannot claim that Megamind has no skill and compare this to a quick-draw match when you have Megamind literally reacted to Tighten's lasers which put Gru's hypersonic missile feat to shame so why bring up a much less effective one? It's like when they brought up Thor manhandling the World Serpent or neglecting to bring up his one-hit KO (The Godblast) during the Thor vs Wonder Woman episode; he has way better feats than you're showing off right now so why the hell are we not using them? It almost seems like you guys don't want to admit that Wonder Woman could've actually been beaten, even if you capped Thor at frickin' light speed like everyone else in Marvel that you considered at that time for some bizarre reason.
I loathe these reasonings in this category because they're such copouts for an actual argument; when you have a character who has way stronger tech, equipment, and weapons that could annihilate you but reduce their overall experience to that of an idiot, it doesn't make the idiot any less of a threat. It's so annoying but it's particularly worse here since you could only make this argument after downplaying Megamind's attributes beforehand to make Gru seem just as powerful as him, if not even more.
Overall, this Death Battle's research and reasonings is just as good as the quality of the fight animation: Just abysmal and lazy all around. This would be a bit forgivable had they actually given everyone a well-choreographed fight worth watching but it's clearly not that. This is not worth the tens of thousands of dollars they raised in their Kickstarter if this is what they have to show for it lmao.
