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

[Tipper17]

What are even these titles anymore bruh

Idk tbh
Gotta catch the normie audience attention

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

I think the way they handled Infinity was alright. I like that they went about it like how I interpret it. Limitless is that essentially, it's just a spatial forcefield that passively surrounds Gojo.

 

[ZeNoviceArtist]

Go white boys go!

 

[CharlesZaGreat]

So, any prediction for what we'll be getting this week for the ballot?

 

[TMaakkonen]

Uh oh, they called Gojo's Infinity busted. Uh ooooh track record for busted previews for anime aint good.

 

[Tipper17]

Scrolling thru Twitter and folks still bring up Yang vs Tifa

I truly wish I could go back in time and stop db from doing that episode

 

[TMaakkonen]

As I said, people resent shit from years ago. Rebuilding trust for old audience is hard. Unironically they are better for trying to get new people who havent watched DB before, less likely to diss them.

yang vs tifa, gaara vs toph, goku vs superman 2, ben 10 vs hal jordan: the four horseman of the apocalypse!

 

[The_Unknown_Warrior1]

yang vs tifa, gaara vs toph, goku vs superman 2, ben 10 vs hal jordan: the four horseman of the apocalypse!

But which one of these DBs represents the horsemen, Death? Personally I think it's Ben 10 vs Hal Jordan.

I saw a video about a couple weeks ago about the fight and the comments were filled with unbridled contempt towards DB, even some thin layered death threats. Though another close candidate would be Goku vs Superman 2

Sadly true

Goku vs Superman 2 practically made them permanently on Goku stans shit list and most of the fanbase

I feel like this would end up on the ToC and lose.

Don’t we have CF Garou at Multi Solar System with insane RE and he’s constantly emitting insane amounts of radiation? Wouldn’t that constantly be putting a strain on Cell’s regen?

I could see an argument be made for Garou winning tbh

 

[Adem_Warlock69]

CF Garou only became Multi-Solar System after copying Saitama

 

[TMaakkonen]

Cell has Frieza's genes so he should resist some radiation from space and whatnot.

Garou's radiation is like way stronger than typical space radiation tho

 

[TMaakkonen]

Garou's radiation is like way stronger than typical space radiation tho

Why cant things be like I assume without needing to check em out harumph

 

[Chronicplane]

Garou's radiation is like way stronger than typical space radiation tho

it shouldn't matter as dragon ball characters aura and ki barriers would be able to protect them from stuff like that, or are you implying human made nuclear technology would be enough to actually threaten DB characters?

 

[Tipper17]

Garou radiation shouldn't be a problem for someone like Cell anyways who has Regen, barriers etc

Toei Cell is low multiversal checkmate : p

 

[Kirbonic_Pikmin]

I mean Cell only became Perfect after absorbing the androids (^:

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

I just realized, Garous haircut makes him kinda Cell shaped

DB fans who go to church:

DB fans who go to church:

That’s why I suggest a Saturday.

 

[Jasonsith]

DB fans who go to church:

Those people who go to church on Sunday morning could still watch it early on Sunday night.
I go to church on Sunday and will still have some time at Sunday night.

That’s why I suggest a Saturday.

Saturday also works too.
But keep in mind some people actually work on Saturdays.

 

[CBslayeR]

Sunday is fine, they'd just be late to the premiere if they go to church.


Who spends all day at Church anyways, it's an hour or two max

Those who work for a church and inside a chapel/cathedral premise during Sundays of course.

They usually make it up by having another weekdays as rest days.



And outsourced guards work on shifts.

Gojo preview at 139k

 

[Jasonsith]

Uh oh, they called Gojo's Infinity busted. Uh ooooh track record for busted previews for anime aint good.

Likely they will mention how some attacks will circumvent with this.


In fact some JJK audience already knew how this could be done.

Gojo preview at 139k

Great.

Don't think I was here during them times, how bad was it?

Late response but it came to a head all in S7 (I think?) when it started with Kakashi not getting the perfect Susano-o, Venom not getting the power cosmic and eventually erupting with Rock Lee getting a hypothetical 8th gate of death yet still got beaten (notice how all these characters lost their DBs?), things weren't Ben Vs Hal levels bad but it wasn't pretty. A little of the discourse did come back in S8 with Batman not getting the final Batsuit against Iron-Man (iirc there was a black box that said Tony would've likely still won even if Bruce did get the final Batsuit) and ofc Alucard not getting the "cat boy" in his battle with Dio (even tho it contradicts his canon moveset) which was further exasperated by Alucard's nigh-Saitama levels of unbeatability among the normies plus (as mentioned already) the battle was framed in a way where Dio was basically unbeatable in any scenario (on the bright side it did encourage a major Hellsing verse overhaul here).

Tl;dr: Everyone has different goalposts over what's "standard Vs optional" when it comes to using a character at their believable peak and will inevitably clash (tho some are more likely to kick up a stink about it than others).

Finished reading Chainsaw Man Part 1 and happy to say i am even more excited for Gojo VS Makima

As if Cirno vs Jack Frost is not enough we have Flandre Scarlet vs Alice as one more Touhou Project vs Shin Megami Tensei matchup

 

[RiloKileyFan]

 

[Jasonsith]

Do you hate Touhou Project being a WHO member in the West and Re:Creators being a more obscure WHO member?

What can the right side do against the left side?

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

As if Cirno vs Jack Frost is not enough we have Flandre Scarlet vs Alice as one more Touhou Project vs Shin Megami Tensei matchup

Wouldn’t it make more sense to have Alice from Touhou fight Alice?
I’m not a Touhou fan so maybe one of them will tell me I’m wrong
