Since BFDI got upgraded to 2-C, it's nice to see how its new tier matches the EBF5 characters in power. As much as many of the BFDI characters are currently missing abilities from recently released episodes to the point where I don't want to put them in VS threads yet, thankfully Leafy is one of those characters whose page is up to date, so why not pit her against Anna once more, especially since I passed an EBF CRT a few months back that would make this fight fairer? This is, of course, my most requested Death Battle matchup, after all.

Speed is equalized, both are 2-C (Base Leafy and EBF5 Anna are used), and the battle takes place in an open grassy field. Both of them start 10 meters apart from each other, have access to all of their equipment, Leafy isn't competing in any seasons and has her recovery center hidden 100 meters behind her, and the Player is restricted for Anna.

Who wins?

It looking like Anna might out hax, there some crazy stuff on there. even outside the player.

I should note that without the Player controlling her, Anna doesn't have a set leading move to the point where she just does random moves akin to any typical RPG enemy. Though, she will try to heal herself if she gets low on HP.

she has no personality or intelligence? can i get some scans of this.
 
How does Leafy fight? leaning towards incon atm if she is just fighting basically at random cause she has hax that could win pretty easily.

She usually prefers to end fights as quick as possible by utilizing whatever items she has access to, not to mention she's been able to dodge danmaku twice as a form of dodging skill. Speaking of dodging skill, Anna has also been implied to be capable of dodging danmaku by herself in Bullet Heaven 2 without the need of the Player (AKA when the Player decides to play as another character outside of Anna).
 
I think there's an item or equip that auto-runs battles? I haven't played EBF5 in awhile; I just recall that there's an auto-run thing in the game.

Judging by the way she played out in EBF4 and EBF5, Anna is pretty quick to pick fights with people. Kinda one-track minded, she is. Her status in the boss fight against her even points out how rash and one-track minded she is:

"Why are you wasting a turn to read this? She's seriously intent on beating you up. Get back to it!"

According to her battle logic page, at the very earliest Mighty Oak would be the second move she makes, but it being a Limit Break even on the other side of the battlefield means she would have to bide her time before using Mighty Oak. The majority of the time, you can expect the dummy to use a wind-based attack half of the time.: https://epicbattlefantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Anna_(boss)#Battle_Logic

Not entirely sure how Leafy can handle wind. The way Bubble is borked seems to imply that you'd expect a leaf to react how you think it would. Anna had never really been someone who's into fire; in fact, you have to deliberately give her a Fire-elemental weapon just to get her to use Fire in any capacity.

That's my take for Anna; I won't vote for now.

You're thinking of the Berserk status, although there is no equipment Anna is able to wear that grants her the status. Though, closest thing she does have is the Magma Hand summon which is able to grant her the Berserk status upon summoning it.

Yeah, her body would pretty much react exactly how you'd expect it to be with a regular leaf. Even Foldy (A living piece of paper who's just as thin as Leafy) has been shown to get susceptible to wind, so Leafy's body should pretty much react the same way.

Actually, she can learn two skills that are Fire elemental. It's just that she's not likely to use it due to her status as an enemy not being controlled by the Player causing her to lead with random moves.
 
Hmm... I'd say give Anna two attacks and she'll blow Leafy away with her second attack (since every two attacks are guaranteed to be a wind attack according to her battle logic).
 
Do note that I said they both have access to all of their equipment, which means Leafy has access to her Recovery Center which can bring her back after death by generating a new body for her that then proceeds to come out of the Leafy Recovery Center so long as the Leafy Recovery Center isn't destroyed.

On top of this, Leafy also has access to the Emergency Button and her spaceship, both of which can shoot lasers that one-shot those on her level. Then again, Anna also has certain moves that can inflict instant death upon landing like her Triple Sawblades.

Hm. I might have to give this one to Anna, while despite not having the Player's guidance/intervention,, Anna simply has- more to work with generally. not to mention means of incap to prevent Leafy from using her Recovery Center (i have a sneaking suspicion Anna would sense some form of bullshit going on here)- and if your giving Anna access to all equipment, would that mean summons too? If thats the case, then uh

Yeah
aint looking too good for Leafy here

Yeah, she has all of her equipment and summons, but do remember that without the Player, all of her actions are completely random.

But whatever, vote counted.
 
Apparently killing a character over and over again counts as incapacitating them. With that said, I'd say Anna's arsenal has a better shot of repeatedly killing Leafy compared to the latter. S I'm gonna vote for Anna.
 
I dunno how having a set battle logic is considered "completely random" to you people, but...

I'm sticking with Anna.
 
Honestly, i think this "completely random" fighting style is simply just game mechanics, and Anna on her own would be smart enough to figure out what Leafy is weak to- or, yknow. Use Scan

Well, that's the problem. With the many abilities she has, there's a lot of possibilities as to what she can and wouldn't do without the Player influencing her. If we're going by cutscenes in both the 4th and 5th games, Anna's obviously going to use her bow, but the only time we see her using different abilities to get an idea as to how she fights is in an early-mid game boss fight against her where she doesn't have all of her abilities and that her battle AI may accidentally use a move against Matt/NoLegs that they resist via equipment. It's not game mechanics, but rather her canon fighting style without the Player controlling her.

I vote for Anna winning the battle based on the quoted discussion.
 
You know, I was kinda waiting for more Leafy arguments since those arguments haven't been thrown around too much aside from me mentioning how Leafy handles fights at the start.

Anyways, 3 more votes, unless someone decides to argue for the former winning.

I'll describe Leafy's advantages so both combatants can have a balanced amount of attention.
  • Leafy's recovery center allows her to have a means of resurrection, meanwhile Anna relies on the player who is absent in this match for resurrection. I see that Anna can resurrect party members using Expresso, but she probably can't use it on herself if she's dead.
  • Leafy's lifting strength is ranked as Multi-Stellar whereas Anna's is ranked as Class P, meaning Leafy has a major advantage in that regard.
  • The justification for Leafy's stamina is a lot more impressive than that of Anna. An example of Leafy performing such a feat herself is the time she walked up stairs for days during BFDI 11: Lofty without getting tired.
  • Leafy's physical range extended by elasticity could overcome Anna's arrows. Leafy is willing to use her elasticity in character as shown during BFB 25: The Tweested Temple and BFB 26: The Hidden Contestant.
  • I find Leafy's years of experience in competitions and training to avoid acid spitballs more relevant than Anna's experience.
