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

[Kirbonic_Pikmin]

Same, dunno for Touhou but the way they really get intimidated by Fate is getting too old at this point

To be fair it’s only two members of the team out of how many? And they’ve mentioned several times that they have other members on the team who are more knowledgable on Fate than them. Not an impossibility

Then they should let those members handled it instead being "nah fam Fate is too scary"

It is a show appealing to casuals so even if you have the ones who know there shit you want to make sure to make it digestible to the normies and not confusing whatsoever

I feel if we exluding FGO, then Fate fits to this category

 

[Tots_Real]

They prefer Chucky over Junko for Springtrap

Tragic because Springtrap can't loose that thanks to glitchtrap shenanigans. At least with Junko she has tech related stuff too.

They didn't know a lot of weeb verses

We already know that.

Sarge vs Soldier would be easy to do, at least in the research department.

Yeah makes sense

Bill vs Discord is cancelled

But why?

Lightning was a favorite of Torrian and are surprised they never made an episode with her. Implies they missed the boat with Lightning (vs Shulk)
Vader vs Obito is cool
Chad doesn't actually have much power when deciding MUs.

Ok.

 

[TacticalNuke002]

Has the crew ever expressed an opinion on Senator Armstrong vs Funny Valentine?

 

[Sero]

So, maybe a fun game to play: name two franchises and I'll try to come up with a matchup for them

SAO and .hack

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

But why?

Just a joke, BillCord still going to be happen

 

[Tots_Real]

I figured.

 

[Kontororou]

Has the crew ever expressed an opinion on Senator Armstrong vs Funny Valentine?

I recall it showing up in one of the original 2 ballot casts. They asked Liam when Steel Ball Run's anime will come out, as well as talking about times it with the president run in 2024.

 

[BlackDarkness679]

Also, they could expand their knowledge.

They would rather be close minded and stick to mainstream shit more often or matches none wants but do it just cuz normies are gonna eat it

What are you looking forward for volume 2 part 2 the most?

Now this has been hanging me on while we all wait for the real Death Battle Season 10 to premiere.

 

[BlackDarkness679]

For real

SAO and Bofuri

I still dont get why animes like bofuri are taken for vs, cuz at the end of the day its just slice of life, not shonen or battle orientated like your regular shows

Breaking bad is here.

 

[Tipper17]

Well... then it is time to let VS Battles Wiki and other versus community to do this.

Also, they could expand their knowledge.

They would rather be close minded and stick to mainstream shit more often or matches none wants but do it just cuz normies are gonna eat it

Obscure stuff only has a chance if it's put up against something that's moreso popular enough to carry

I do say it depends on how much relevance it has

Breaking bad is here.

Light vs Walter just doesn't work for a DB

Alex vs the entire verse

 

[Tots_Real]

Light vs Walter just doesn't work for a DB

I seriously don't get this match at all, like on a fundemental level even how it would even hypothetically work.

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

If they got it to work and had Walter win, I want them to recreate the scene with Gus but with Light

 

[Quantu]

Waltuh literally just shoots Light and it's over, I've come to accept it doesn't work as a DB MU

 

[TacticalNuke002]

Wake up, guys. New MU for Scott Pilgrim just dropped. Travis too stronk after No More Heroes 3.

And seriously, check out Hi Fi Rush, its ******* amazing.

 

[OverlordDonnelly]

Travis is still fine for Scott. They could just use Scott's high-end Moon Level wank arguments for the sake of fairness. That way, they can lead into Travis' planet level scaling and make it sound somewhat close.

Plus, then they can bring up that if given the same leniency, Travis beat a guy who has a Multi-Solar System sized pocket dimension inside of him.

 

[Tots_Real]

I still prefer Scott vs Mordecai.

intresting explain the MU

“Boobs vs Thighs, woah!” -Ben Singer, 2023

 

[TacticalNuke002]

intresting explain the MU

Hi Fi Rush: Chai is a loser with dreams of becoming a rockstar who joins a cybernetic enhancement programme for citizenship and employment in an island run by a private company. But an accident during the cyborgisation process fuses him with his walkman causing him to see the world in rhythm where everything functions like it's an Edgar Wright movie. His accident makes him a defect, which puts him in the crosshairs of the superpowered corporate bosses of the company. He then teams up with the underground resistance to uncover and foil the hidden nefarious plans of the evil company.

Chai's character design and personality are a homage to Tetsuo Shima, Vash the Stampede, Haruko from FLCL and Marty McFly.

Trailer should tell you about his vibe.

Because Death Battle brings out the best and worst of people in the VS community.
