Sonya should have fought JIll

Both are WANKED BOIS, lets be real, lol.

Suspend your disbelief for a second, will 'ya?
- 1,255

Suspend it for what? I like both characters and have played all the mainline games for both, and I know they're both WANKED BOIS on this site. That's just how it is. Fight would be dope if it happened though.

depends on what you define as wank i guess. Two people can experience the same medium and have different takes
- 1,255

True. You no doubt think differently on this then I do at least to some degree, but I'm of the personal mind that neither character is tier 2 and really shouldn't be anywhere near it. Then again, compared to some of the horrendous wank I've seen for both, Kratos in particular with some wackjobs putting him at like 5-to-6D, the site here isn't so bad by comparison.

I mean, considering Dante and Kratos' universal stuff comes from lore and not gameplay, I don't think actually playing the games would give you an accurate read on their full power.
- 1,255

Lore that's been called into question on Dante's side, and as for Kratos, I know for certain his lore stuff has been contradicted multiple times by the creators themselves.

alot of the wog for kratos is super hit or miss for me. Balrog has not been consistent with his own game when he talks cosmology. personally death of the author for me
- 1,255

It isn't even just him. David Jaffe also contradicted the lore as well. He did it in an interview if I remember right, but I can't recall which one. Its not really death of the author for me. Plus there's more to it than just the creators contradicting the lore that they themselves put in, but I'll just leave it there for now. Too tired to argue.

Who's Asimov fighting?Welp, time to return to my day job of posting
XENO JRPG VS MU CHARTS
- You'll notice that Ziggy's MUs have been completely overhauled (Ironwood moving under Egil's MUs now). IMO, Strength (Yuu Koutari) from Black Rock Shooter is his best MU, between the big fists (obviously) and the fact that she lost her family in a burning home being seen as similar to Jan Sauer losing his wife and son to Voyager. Yuito from Scarlet Nexus is a good Honorable mention because of the transhumanist undertones, and his near miss to the others in Scarlet Nexus. Kratos is literally there because of the whole 'dead wife and kid' thing, but I've never actually played God of War, so I can't say much else other than 'he's here because Voyager vs Ares exists'.
- Billy Lee Black also has proper MUs to speak of, those being Xigbar (Kingdom Hearts) and Johnathan (SMTIV). Both being morally questionable spins on a religion or spiritual group / organisation of varying consequence (at least, XIII sort of is), with Xigbar pulling out slightly ahead because he actually has firearms to speak of. Bayonetta is also of mention, but if she's running back anyone, she'll probably end up with that before Billy.
- Jin Uzuki's MUs (Levi Ackerman (Attack on Titan) and Cobalion (Pokemon BW)) I'm not overly sure of at this current time (be it a statstomp or loose connections). I asked Enel, but he drew up as much of a blank as I did, so look up characters that:
A) have a strained relaitonship with siblings
B) are ex-military samurai (or take cues from such)
C) are around 3-C+
D) have scatterbrained hobbies (Jin switching professions every 6 months is literally a meme in Saga II)
E) end up dying at the end of their arc
And tell me if any of that sounds familiar.
- Cannan vs Hawks [MHA] (the latter being moved from Mikhail's spot) is kind of a recent one I dug out for prosperity's sake. If you've seen MHA's latest episode, I think you should know what I'm getting at.
- KOS-MOS I mentioned @JoshDoshMosh's idea regarding Aleph, even though I've never played SMTII, and probably won't be able to get to it. Ah well, someone had to go in KOS-MOS's spot. I'm doing all the heavy lifting when it comes to what is basically the rest of the Xenosaga verse anyway.
Oh and Violet Evergarden is there because of thematic links. Yes, I'm aware of how much of a stomp it is, shut up.
- Mog I put back in Riki's spot after accidentally getting rid of him for Donald. Oops.
And on that bombshell, it's time to end (for now). Goodnight!

Some staff (which also left before that thread concluded, his thread btw) came and gave his awful take on MK that it cant use fatalities and x-ray to get ratings, as well as the two timelines (midway era and netherrealm era) are similar to DC post crisis and new 52 in how they are treated with each other, as well comics being non canon
Which resulted in big downgrades having most at tier 9-8 (adding on many characters are hurt by bullets or vehicle crashes as counters to being any higher)

you forgot that in the DB cast they had both at universal from 2-3 feats even in here are used when talking of it

I was wondering when New DB theme started and it was on BP vs Bats, ep 88. I was wondering would a certain achievement happen this season but its not close yet. In fact its prolly happening at Season 10 with episode 177.
Aka that's when there have been more DBs with new music instead of the old one.
Honestly its crazy how many old eps they have had.
EDIT: We did surpass the old look count while back tho.

Pre-Crisis Superman once moved so fast Mr. Mxyzptlk couldn’t perceive him. Neatest outlier I’ve seen from him

Ronald's best matchup is unironically Orochi. AFAIK the Cornel dosn't have much to work with outside of a DC crossover.
