DEATH BATTLE! Discussion Thread (All-time Death Battle Spoilers Alert)

I hope they some wild stupid shit like Count Dooku vs Saruman or some shit lol
The dialogue potential would be downright hilarious with that one lmao. I would like to have their armies be confused about who is who due to both literally sharing the same face

They will probably be doing Revan vs Dark Urge since they expressed interest, or Luke vs Paul Atreides due to Dune 3 coming out

Din could probably come soon since the Mando movie came out.
 
You know... why pair Sentry against Prime when the requested MU was regular Supes?

Was it just themes (and such)? Or...

Was Sentry deemed too strong for Supes? So they put him up against Prime for a closer fight?

Or did they just not want Supes to return yet lol

Supes makes even less thematic sense than SBP because at least SBP and Sentry at least share the theme of messed up Superman copies that share meta elements to them. Nevermind it's just not that interesting thematically beyond the surface level

Like idk man, it's not rocket science.

Naruto vs Luffy seems like the one for "Big 3" theme fight and that its still somewhat talked too.

...But Naruto likely just takes everything which is funky.
 
The games were clearly not made in chronological order
They were, the only hiccup is DMC3 as a prequel. Everything else is supposed to be straightforward. Dante isn't consistent because the writers and designers aren't consistent with his character at all and changed their minds, on top of that he barely gets a character arc as the series progresses. Supplementary material comes after the fact and that's why they get retconned, ignored, or changed.

No it wasnt, originally it was 3, 1, anime, 4, 2, thats not in order

Afterwards it changed to 3, 1, anime, 2, 4 and 5

I already went over that earlier, they had something else in mind initially, Itsuno tried to make sense of all that afterwards
 
is anyone here knowledgable on buffy, i have so much wrong with blade vs buffy but no one to complain to lol
I am.
the thread is a desert lmao, sorry if im seeming repetitive but its just annoying personally to see so much blatanly wrong scaling
I agree. They scaled Buffy to way higher than they should, and some of the feat they used for scaling were misinterpreted or wrong.

You are supporting the point here. 3, 1, anime, 4, 2 literally didn't matter which is why they are able to just choose on a dime to completely shift the position of two games.
Because it didn't matter, because Dante's characterization is schizophrenic, because they were just making things up as they went. It still doesn't make "sense". One can't reconcile the fact that Dante in 3 & 1 is a completely different person than the anime, or how different he is from the anime, 2, & 4 without making up fan theories.

It only makes sense when looked at in release order. Because the release order ended up being the chronological order with the exception of the explicit prequel. Like you are playing the wrong games if you believe Dante was ever "Serious" in the beginning of DMC4 prior to seeing Nero. This is just a fan theory, he was aware of Nero all along. He's a goofball in DMC4 because DMC4 was made by the same people who made DMC3 where he is also a goofball and they saw no need to change it even though it took place several decades afterward.

It mattered cuz the scene with Dante on bike had people think its him after the ending of 2, also it supports nothing from you at all, 2 was meant to be a far off future and last one

Says you? You are getting annoying with your criticism on DMC, especially claiming shit like this, it makes sense in the way I pointed it out, you just complain for no reason

1 was originally a RE4 prototype, which once again deals with Vergil dying for good by his hand, after losing him way back and Trish looking like his mother, deceiving him and "dies" as well, 2 took it further with his character after events had previously, 3 is him being a punk that goofs around learning of family importance and losing his only member left, what is fan theory here, it makes perfect sense all of that to justify a shift in personality, you think people cant change after tragic events at all...

1 and 2 werent meant to be that close to each other originally....also as it goes now, the anime is set in between them too
Like you are playing the wrong games if you believe Dante was ever "Serious" in the beginning of DMC4 prior to seeing Nero.
Dante aint goofing at all when he shows up in 4 against Nero, either you are ignorant af or utterly blind
This is just a fan theory, he was aware of Nero all along.
Dante explicitely says in 5 he had a hunch only when he saw him, only after witnessing Yamato way of reacting to Nero he had it confirmed, so you are making shit up to fit your headcanon narrative
He's a goofball in DMC4 because DMC4 was made by the same people who made DMC3 where he is also a goofball and they saw no need to change it even though it took place several decades afterward.
4 takes place around the same time as his age in 3, you act like he didnt have serious moments at all and jist goofs around

Dont talk on a subject you clearly dont have any idea at all and dont go around tell your headcanons as fact, Capcom still tries to make sense of their long running franchises even when its not going from 1 to 10 in numbers, something you clearly aint aware of with them

Devil May Cry 2 was never meant to be the "last one". I don't know where you got that from, but it was immediately green lit shortly after DMC1, but was given to a completely different team. Hell, it was greenlit in 2001, the same year DMC1 released.



I'm giving you multiple reasons, that's not "no reason". The reason you think what I typed is annoying is because you don't know the history of the franchise that well and you've either made things up about the games, or you've over indulged in "Fandom" who makes things up about the games.

The entire intro of DMC4 is goofy, even with Dante not taking it all that serious, flinging into cheers with a smirk on his face and "adios, kid."

4 takes place around the same time as his age in 3, you act like he didnt have serious moments at all and jist goofs around
Finally, Devil May Cry 4 does not take place anywhere near the same age as Dante was in DMC3. DMC3 Dante is a teenager, DMC4 Dante is around his 40s.

That has literally nothing to do with the in universe time that passes, 2 was the last game in the series chronologically, so at the time it was meant as much later taking place

After seeing most of arguments last time, I have no reason to believe a hyperfixated fool as you trying to justify his headcanon by interpreting how he thinks, you dont know as much as you believe

If Dante staring at you on the screen with blood on his face is goofy you have a skewered definition of it, he got more playful after facing Nero over time and that adios kid happens only at the end of their fight after pulling rebellion from the chest
Finally, Devil May Cry 4 does not take place anywhere near the same age as Dante was in DMC3. DMC3 Dante is a teenager, DMC4 Dante is around his 40s.
You dont even know what I am talking and insert your headcanon as always without thinking, Dante isnt in his 40s, its in his late 30s, DMC1 he was 28 and from anime till 5 its been 10 years and from 4 to 5 its like half a decade or so, get your timeline

Also we are told its been around as much time between 3 to 4 as Dante age, aka 18 or so years between them, so stop talking

Late 30s is the same as "around 40s", the only person who would cry about that is someone clinging on to their last year or two at 38 or 39. It is also grasping at straws because Dante's designer in DMC4 explicitly said he wanted to make him look like late 30s or 40s, then said in other interviews that Dante is in his 40s in the game. So I'm right and you're just crying and being semantical for zero reason.


Tatsuya Yoshikawa said:
For me he really has the image of the coolest possible guy. In this installment we really wanted to make Dante the coolest guy in the world, so first the team asked, "what makes a man cool?" and the answer was well, men are really cooler, stronger and wiser when they are a bit older, perhaps in their 30s or 40s


Tatsuya Yoshikawa said:
In “DMC 4”, you really get the feeling that Dante is a veteran at all this.

Yoshikawa: Dante was hard. It was clear that his heyday as a big, Hollywood-like action star, represented by “DMC (1)”, “2”, and “3”, had passed. So I worked hard to bring him back in style. He’s around 40 years old here, with the experience, knowledge, and physical abilities to match. Dante’s still in top form. But we’ve got Nero as the new protagonist, so I knew that Dante couldn’t be doing too much more than giving support from the sidelines. I incorporated at those factors into his design.

It's funny how by the end of this post you understand what "around" means by typing "18 years or so", then you're crying over this.

2 was never the last game chronologically. 2 was just a game where the story literally went nowhere so they could throw it anywhere they wanted after the first game, so they just hopped between it being after 4, and then put it before 4. You are, again, proving my point and you can't even see it.

Yea, adhominems. Very smart. When you have no argument you throw insults. Why even waste four lines typing BS?

"End of their fight" is quite literally the first 10 minutes of DMC4, where Dante is smirking, punched around, and joking. If you can't see how much of a clown he's being here and goofy here then you're being disingenuous. You don't know more than others, stop pretending you do because what you have typed is unconvincing.

I wouldn't call Dante from Part 4 a clown, more like unbalanced. But in Part 5, it was like they stopped his development and he became a comic relief.
