This might be my favorite Death Battle of all time, holy shit.

That was beautiful. In every way. The analysis, the animation, the after-thoughts, that speech about Versus Debating at the end. Hell, even the next-time is some hype. A perfectly crafted episode that clearly came from a lot of passion in the Death Battle team.

It would be downright awful to call this anything less than a 10/10. SSS Tier in the Top 5 of all time, if not Top 1.

The analysis was pretty-much on point for both characters, though if I had to give a criticism I would say they should've hyped Goku a little more so he could at least feel comparable to what they did with Superman. I don't see how anyone would watch this and think that Goku even stood a chance, but maybe that's what they were going for. I reckon most people know who wins by this point, so it's fine.

Other than that, no qualms at all. I'm not a big comic reader, and even knowing of Superman's legacy, I still found the way they showcased him to be shocking. Superman is really ******* broken, lol.

The animation was just super amazing on every level. I had a smile on my face the whole time. I love how they leaned in to this being just another rematch between friends. It was so positive rather than deadly and edgy like some other battles. The progression was fire too. Very balanced and the last few moments were some of the best animated shit in the entirety of this show.

Goku's transformations were given a lot of love, and Superman's power was fantastically displayed. Voices were good. Everything was good, man.

God tier. Surpassed Frieza vs Megatron by leaps and bounds in my opinion.

I would keep going but I think it'd be unhealthy.

Aren't they both immortal? Without Death around, Galactus can just bring himself back from the grave.

YO! GOKU VS SUPERMAN 3 WAS LIT AS HELL! THE ANIMATION, THE FIGHT CHOEGRAHPY, THE PACING, THE SCALE, THE IMPACT OF THE PUNCHES, AND OBVIOUSLY THE CHARACTERIZATION OF GOKU AND SUPERMAN MADE ME SO HAPPY THAT NEITHER WERE SHIT ON OR MISINTERPRETED!!!

Okay fanboying aside the one thing about this fight which I absolutely adored was that Superman and Goku weren't fighting to kill each other or act as a hit piece against another, but rather acting as if they were best friends and having a friendly sparring match which just happened to not compensate for how strong they are. And honestly I'm not even mad that Goku died in the end, the way the fight was framed and seeing Goku and Superman do that bro fist while being chill with one another unironically put the biggest smile on my face.

Just with that factor alone, on top of everything surrounding the fight, I believe this was hands down the best fight of the season thus far and it's currently in my top 5 favorite DBs of ALL TIME. I'll potentially write another essay explaining why this episode was peak, but I just wanted to give my brief opinion on the writing aspect to this episode

Perfectly said. I felt like a kid watching this fight unfold.
 
I think if we're going by character writing, GvS3 is probably the no.1 of the season, and it's not even close. Where I'd rank this is still up for debate, but it's probably rank 2 or 3, no lower.

And again, it's good to see Xander Mobus as a regular on the team (hell, he's part of the reason why). If this doesn't implicitly confirm Shulk vs Stocke, we riot.
 
Superman was childhood with games and animations like Justice League, even if I never read his comics I love that guy.

I think that my biggest problem with Superman vs Goku that they made before was the way they portrayed their characters. Felt almost sarcastic at times, or making fun of the comparisons, treating one as lesser than the other (Superman's whole premise was indirectly called inferior in GvS2, Goku simply accepting that he can never beat him, anticlimactic conclusions, etc).

This time I feel that they corrected everything, were true to both works and still gave us the outcome that we all know (or should know) is true. Even if I'm more a Goku fan, I'm still glad with everything that they delivered here. You can see love for both series and the hobby of debating being poured in this. I can only appreciate how far they have come with this episode.

Yeah, me too. Even on a deeper level Death Battle is pretty much what got me into power-scaling in the first place, watching their older episodes as a kid. Superman VS Goku in particular was one of the first power-scaling videos I ever watched. So it's really nice to see this conclusion now that I'm an adult. It brought me back.

It was personally Iron Man Vs Lex Luthor for me, which is why I have such a bias for that episode.
