Death Battle Season Nine Discussion Thread (1) (All-time Death Battle Spoilers Alert)

[Jimmy.robinson.5099]

That's like, a bottom two episode of the show for me. Not even just for it being a Mario win I just hate everything about the episode, how the characters are treated/portrayed, the animation style itself, the fight, the research, nothing about that ep was good imo

And yet it's one of their most popular apparently, judging by it being in that one playlist...

Unrelated, but was Morbius's most popular opponent Man-Bat? I don't know why, but I've started visualising the matchup in my head (before you ask, yes: there is at least ONE reference to the Morbius film).

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

Out of curiosity, do you think they would give Raidou the power of observation?

That list is heavily outdated anyway. I'm convinced they forgot about it.

Some guy on Deviantart has some wild as Strider feats

Shall see...

1. Daily reminder: visual entertainment != Power level

2. Though I wonder if Hiryu qualifies as relativistic for dodging lasers as Ryu Hayabusa qualifies as sub-reativistic for dodging lasers and lightning return strokes from afar.

Hiryu looks still 8-A while Ryu Hayabusa may have universe level standings valid but subject to CRT.

Cypher vs High Frequency Blade, whom cuts through whom?

 

[Kirbonic_Pikmin]

Not even Mario ripping off his swimwear to reveal his regular clothes? That's honestly one of the funniest jokes DB's ever had.

yeah, nah, didn't do it for me. None of the jokes with any of the characters felt like the characters or were even funny imo. "So long gay hedgehog" was especially, extremely cringeworthy.

 

[Kirbonic_Pikmin]

Cypher vs High Frequency Blade, whom cuts through whom?

I have no idea but would HFB be able to disrupt the molecules of Strider's blade? That's the real question here.

Well, it'd have to make contact with the blade first, and I'm nowhere near qualified enough to know what molecular destabilization would do to plasma energy. My meathead brain tells me that it would create a giant ass explosion that kills Raiden and Hiryu.

Based?

That's actually an incredibly funny breakdown of what would happen in a versus scenario like this, if true.

I think Knuckles got done pretty dirty in terms of characterization especially as well, but Sonic generally had especially bad research throughout most of the show.

Eh wasn't great but it wasn't as bad as the two I mentioned
Just par the course
Research wise it's nothing new most series get dealt a bad hand in research primarily in old era
Mario vs Sonic 2 wasn't a great start for the franchise in research

I won’t lie, I love the hand-drawn Sonic vs Mario fight, but yeah, it should have been a Sonic win. Mario ain’t that guy.

Hand drawn fight is decent i give it I'm indifferent to it as a whole

Anyways HST and FT record
One piece 2-1
Naruto 3-5
Bleach 0-2
Fairy tail 1-2

 

[Tipper17]

Anyways HST and FT record
One piece 2-1
Naruto 3-5
Bleach 0-2
Fairy tail 1-2

To add on
One Piece most popular MU currently is Escanor vs Whitebeard which is a OP W that would put the series at 3-1

Naruto most popular is Obito vs Vader which could be a Naruto W or an L

Bleach is kinda screwed Ichigo assuming he comes back could face an L against Yusuke unless DB goes back on the feat a bit to make it even

Kenpachi MU spread is all over the place but he loses to Azreal and Garou

Ywhach loses to Hao

Rukia vs Sakura exist but that's one shit and I don't see DB doing anymore Nardo vs Belch MU



Fairy Tail eh Saber vs Erza exist but could be an L for FT and Natsu vs Luffy is arguably an L as well

I lowkey want them to complete the Naruto vs Bleach trilogy and have Kagura beat Yhwach. One is silly, two is ridiculous, three is peak comedy.

 

[Peter_"Quicksilver"_Maximoff]

Who knows where they'll have YYH at, modern DB scaling is weird lol. Like, Vegeta should've scaled Broly and Hercules should've been waaaaaay faster then FTL+.

 

[greymerlion2]

I mean, we already saw Hiei, so based on that:

Hiei=Yusuke>Sasuke=Naruto>Ichigo.

I'd like to point out this scaling should be completely reversed, but lol DB research.

True but it's better to have Hiei dunk on Sasuke

But (Boruto saga Naruto Uzumaki >= Boruto saga Sasuke Uchiha) >= Madara Uchiha > Sosuke Aizen (= Ichigo Kurosaki) >> Hiei = Yusuke Urameshi

By recent Death Battle research findings

Well, atleast they put YYH in the right spot.

Shaman King is new at least and it be fun to see Hao fighting Yeehaw

 

[NotoriouSoda]

Not important but Baki got soul manipulation lol

 

[Peter_"Quicksilver"_Maximoff]

Tf how?

 

[NotoriouSoda]

Tf how?

I’ll explain in gif form

nah fr here’s why

Who is Kaguya Ōtsutsuki fighting against tho

I’ll explain in gif form

nah fr here’s why

Interesting.
Will read the thread later.

no one, she doesn't deserve to participate in death battle, because of her, the end of naruto was garbage.

 

[greymerlion2]

Does that mean Yujiro could resist Akuma’s Shungoku Satsu by briefly displacing his own soul from his body? That’s an oddly specific counter.

 

[NotoriouSoda]

Does that mean Yujiro could resist Akuma’s Satsui no Hado by briefly displacing his own soul from his body? That’s an oddly specific counter.

Plus the Satsui no Hado is pain/death manipulation lol

 

[TMaakkonen]

Out of curiosity, you think they’d give Trunks Mafuba and the Spirit Sword? Personally I don’t think it’d matter either way since I’m pretty sure Silver resists sealing

Somehow neither actually works in context.

He can use Mafuba, but Trunks doesnt really carry a urn where to trap opponents to.

And Spirit Sword needed energy from others, so in other battles its not guaranteed to work like in Black saga. Like, would he always get Goku's & Vegeta's energy for it?

 

[greymerlion2]

Ah, it would seem poor translation has tricked me.

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

Pipe dream matchup: what do you guys think of Max Steel vs Rex Salazar
I'll be willing to share the animation potential and connections if you want

 

[TUHTPeaSkull12]

sounds good, but I'm more of a blue beetle vs rex Salazar and it doesn't matter if it's a stomp for dc lol.

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

sounds good, but I'm more of a blue beetle vs rex Salazar and it doesn't matter if it's a stomp for dc lol.

It could be made more fair with the ending stuff Rex gets if they decide to give it to him

 

[TUHTPeaSkull12]

well, if it makes it fairer it's perfect although bad for other MU's of rex lol.

 

[greymerlion2]

Funny thing is Generator Rex is produced by the same studio, lol

 

[BlackDarkness679]

And they had a crossover, twice, on tv and comics too

Waiting for baymax to fight a DC character

 

[greymerlion2]

Waiting for baymax to fight a DC character

He’s just Warner Bros, not DC. The Iron Giant.

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

I mean, can count if you give him his little Superman logo
