Death Battle Season Eight Discussion Thread (2) (All-time Death Battle Spoilers Alert)

I remember someone proposing Vader vs Saber? What are the similarities between the two?

 

[The_Smashor]

If Zero doesn't turn out to be MK's matchup, who could it be? aside from Yoda (which is unlikely), i personally think Vader could be his match

Schezo is MK's best matchup that isn't Zero.

Here’s Vader vs Artoria Pendragon connections at 20:36

What if Jinx ends up fighting Junkrat?

 

[The_Smashor]

What if Jinx ends up fighting Junkrat?

Then DC Comics just has plot armor at this point

 

[SomaKing13]

What if Jinx ends up fighting Junkrat?

That...both equally has potential but also is so hilariously far off from her best match up...I kind of dig it

 

[Hunterzillas]

What if Jinx ends up fighting Junkrat?

I mean....we haven't had Overwatch in a while.

You know, after seeing how well the team can still do hand-drawn animations with Saitama vs Popeye, I'm of the opinion now that should Hit vs Sakuya happen, it needs to be 2D hand-drawn. That shit combined with how crazy they could get with their powers could lead to something badass as shit, and potentially a 10/10 episode. What do y'all think?

 

[Hunterzillas]

Okay, I've been listening to this non-stop since its release, and I just gotta ask if we can get some appreciation for this track? This might be my new favorite track in Death Battle.



Love the part where it slows down for Saitama's monologue, I think a lot of fights miss these quieter moments.

It's a solid track though it does lean on OPM theme for the most which makes senses given Popeye doesn't have much on his side

It makes grateful this MU happened Nobody else would be better

 

[BlackDarkness679]

Which is why he has infinite speed for RTZ, still doesn't change how we clearly see him being affected, RTZ is automatic.

That was during the RTZ, the others got affected by GER ability, while GER himself was freed, time was restored and being rewinded thanks to it, this is essentialy giving time stop resistance to users of it due to their own time stop.

Nowhere its said its automatic and infinite speed isnt from the time erasure

During RTZ its irrelevant, he was just rewinding the back the duration from time erase overall, others were still affected from the effects, so GER wasnt under its effects and no, GER didnt gave himself resistance with the ability either

 

[GhostRaptor17]

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

I mean....we haven't had Overwatch in a while.

Sure but as a matter of fact that the audience are (1) more hyped for a match where a non-Marvel character can finally defeat a DC character (2) the crew want more female vs female fights, (3) Harley Quinn dies to Gwenpool anyway. Now Gwenpool and the joker girl are freed for other choices. There will be more Marvel vs non-DC and non-Marvel vs DC fights in the future to get some select few Americans adapted to the bigger world.

Just in case someone is still wishing to join the lucky draw.
(The winner will be decided New Year's Day, 2022. Winner will be put in the queue behind all paid commissions at time of decision.)
So likely a long wait until the new year and another long wait until the queues are cleared.



Speaking of which, last time Brandon Yates wants to test out his new system with his 5 slots. Anyone knows how is that moving on?



Oh. Over 170 commissioned music.
US$200 per 3:00 to 3:30 music IIRC, higher with longer length and with additional instrumentalists and vocalists.

I am torn into two: it sounds too much to commission one music from like a casual college student (and working adults may think twice after sparing for the family's living budget). On the other hand a US$34000 annual income, while sounding g attracting a... 11.4% federal tax. As average annual Texas household income scratches US$61,874.

So... No comment on these?

It's up there with the likes of Reverse Rosé, Thunder Shroud, Hearts of Light, Heaven Over Hell, and Hollow Dreams.

All season 8 battle music tracks are good.
Hot Take: Including Thunder Shroud and Satsui no Sekai.
Except perhaps Dragons & Dumplings and... Oh Yeah.

[JoshDoshMosh]

Why would Giorno of all people have a shadow

I mean, futaba's mom had a shadow, normal, average, not bad people have shadows

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

I find the size difference in the animation kinda funny
Also is Sakuya really that short compared to Hit canonically?

 

[Derpmaster9000]

Sort of like that, yeah.

 

[Derpmaster9000]

Hit in most shots is actually around Piccolo's height, so that'd put him around seven feet tall.

Ye

I Think Sprites/Hand Drawn mixture can work
Though custom Sprites for Hit could be eh

 

[Loh67867]

I mean, if they do sprites then they can do it in JUS style, both Hit and Sakuya have sprites in this style
Tho judgind by Sanji vs Rock Lee and Madara vs Aizen, DB really wants to avoid JUS sprites for some reason (Naruto vs Ichigo and Sasuke vs Hiei are exceptions).

I guess at the time DB weren't as great nor had enough experience with custom sprites with those two
Naruto vs Ichigo was in S4 and Sasuke vs Hiei was S6

Too iconic to not use

 

[Cropfist]

Legally they do

 

[Tipper17]

 

[NotoriouSoda]

Yujiro confirmed let’s gooo

 

[Crowman123]

I would say: 3D (or even live action) works best if there is a lot of action and esp. martial arts.

Hand drawn is for zany fights (but Jack vs Afro as hand drawn fights still look good).

Blake vs Mikasa could have been salvaged by 2D animation, but even then we would still have the ear-piercing soundtrack. There is nothing i enjoy about it, and features 2 characters i absolytely don't care about. At least we got 2 very good fights, Iron Fist vs Po and Steven Universe vs Star Butterfly after that shlock.

 

[Tipper17]

So thoughts

I mean, Sonic's advance sprites are too iconic not to use, but we got only two fights with them (Luigi vs Tails and Shadow vs Vegeta)

 

[Jimmy.robinson.5099]

Why was my first thought The Eds vs. The Animaniacs?

 

[RiloKileyFan]

yeah new stuff, but putting them against Marvel/DC characters!

 

[TMaakkonen]

Why did they tease so many potentially comics fights lol

 

[Maverick_Zero_X]

Harley vs Jinx, Wanda vs Zatanna, Thor vs Vegeta, and Tetsuo vs Magneto. If they do the episodes everyone’s expecting to do we’ve got at least 5 Capeshit characters confirmed.

 

[Tipper17]

Why did they tease so many potentially comics fights lol

Tbf those are fight folks want
Vegeta vs Thor
Scarlet Witch vs Zatanna
Magneto vs Tetsuo
Harley vs Jinx
Those are MU folks been wanting on DB

Tanjiro vs Jonathan and Boba Fett vs Wolf or Predator are also requested MU

 

[Tipper17]

Besides Capeshit MU aren't bad as long it's MU fans could care about it

 

[Tipper17]

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

Damn he’s a monster

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

Out of curiosity I wanted to ask this: people are recently doubting that the MU for Tanjiro is going to be Jonathan, due to Jojo’s being used recently, what do you guys think?
