I predict Saitama will gain the upper hand initially. Then Popeye eats his spinach and claps Saitama's cheeks

how is it well balanced?
unless your talking about the fight animation which can be balanced.
then no.
Popeye just has everything (Stronger AP, Stronger Hax, Stronger Stamina, Better Intelligence, Stronger durability, and Stronger Lifting Strength) except the speed and that's a big if considering it was possibly ftl, not ftl, for saitama. so the only thing they are evenly matched is speed.
- 25,022
- 27,033
They're likely to use straight up FTL because DB doesn't use the same rules as VSBW.
The reason Saitama is possibly FTL is because we take Murata statements as possibly.
Without that, Saitama is faster than popeye. I won't be surprised if they do scale Saitama to Boros' ship
- 25,632
- 15,962
but still didn't someone say here they don't really take speed that seriously.
- 25,022
- 27,033
What? Speed is a very important factor in a fight
- 25,632

i meant death battle. not speed here.
here's what arceus0x said
To be honest, if death battle actually took speed seriously, no.
Imagine a guy who is 10x faster than you.
By the time you throw a punch he would already dodge it and land 9-10 punches on you. For every meter you walk he walks 10.
Only some homing invisible hax could probably deal with someone faster than you.
Otherwise it'll end up worse.
yeah speed would matter but it sounds like arceus says that death battle doesn't really take speed seriously

DB is probably gonna put the Star Collapsing Roaring Cannon at Planet level, don't forget. And as I said before, Popeye's Star level feats here probably wouldn't be used since none of them are conventional attack feats. Popeye still wins pretty convincingly, but it's not as much of a stomp as people give it credit for.
- 6,901

Oh yeah, he gets a solid Herald scaling from Superboy, Flash, Aquaman, Superman and Wonder Woman. Heck, his portrayals suggest he's outright stronger than Aquaman.
- 25,022
- 27,033
What. There are some DB that takes speed as a heavy win factor, like Dio vs Alucard, Goku Black vs Reverse Flash, Optimus vs Gundam and others. That's just dumb

I mean, they may be done with toon force, but it comes from his strenght, are we sure it can't be AP? At least for death battle? They did have koolaid man at star level from cracking the sun.
- 15,706
- 11,448
Popeye has never really punched the sun out like Kool Aid did, though. And even in that episode they considered Star level to be more of a possibility, calling Kool Aid planet level for most of the conclusion.
Don't get me wrong, I think they're mostly valid, but Death Battle seems to not consider feats like that.

imo unless the character is known to actually speed blitz inverse, just because they're faster, it doesn't mean they would blitz their opponent. it's an advantage for sure, but again, it shouldn't be the deal breaker. just imo. carnage vs lucy is an example. carnage never speed blitzes, he always toys around. so i don't think his greater speed would save him.
Popeye vs Saitama is not a Safe Popeye win imo. I think they might pull "While Popeye has the feats and hax to contend with Saitama, he has never fought somebody like Saitama. Saitama has fought planet level beings without effort, while Popeye usually beats up peak humans"
Just my thoughts.
BTW I see Dislikes on YT again

The only way Saitama can win is if they ignore Popeye’s Regeneration
- 4,125
- 3,105
That'd be so horrible lol, they can't be that stupid to actually argue that.
- 4,125
- 3,105
The most likely way Saitama wins is if they NLF him imo, there's 0 chance they ignore his regen
- 933
- 1,062
Considering Popeye can keep going after being disaggregated and loves to knock people into deep space, Saitama even with infinite AP can't win
- 4,125
- 3,105
Popeye probably would've won then too actually, they'd buy into toon force being more insane than it actually is
- 976
- 2,132
Like someone brought up, Popeye sometimes ends things by knocking people into space, and Saitama can't breathe in space.
That human weakness alone could be the death of him.

I want the death to parody the fakeout punch Saitama does to Genos, but when it makes contact Saitama turns into sausages

Well TBF if Popeye did that they might end up doing what Saitama did in the anime, hit the moon and then jump back from the moon into the fight.

Will Saitama vs Popeye be sprite animated or hand drawn?
- 22,760

MadAizen was the last sprite fight so no
Unlikely to be HD
So in house 3D likely

Does nui scale to ryukos hole in the life fibers feat. Also what does dolflamingo have. Alice vs Sebastian is a really cool fight but who wins

Top right is acnologia from fairy tail
Speaking of which
Acnologia vs Kaidou
Fairy tail vs one piece

Tbh "OriginTheHero" one of sprite animators who works on DB nowadays mentioned excitement for Popeye vs Saitama, at some point that makes me theorise that fight will have many styles of animation at once.

Also shredder vs silver samurai. The whole reasoning for shredder winning (besides super shredder) was that he was 2x faster than harada and could deal a killing blow first
- 154
- 276
They gave the speed advantage to Lucy. Specifically they stated that her vectors were 250x faster than carnage
- 25,022
- 27,033
They placed Carnage at Mach 3 iirc
