Re do of an old thread.

The fight takes place in front of Bang's dojo.

Akame: 1 (DMUA)

Garou:

Inconclusive: 7 (CoreOfimBalance(COB), Knightofannihilation666, Gargoyle One, VersusJunkie54, Dienomite22, RebubleUselet, Theglassman12)

Rules:

This is Akame with Ennoodzuno and Human Garou

In-character, but both are serious about winning.

Win by whatever they would do in-character to win.

Both have basic knowledge of each other (For example: Akame knows of Garou's use of Water Stream Rocking Smashing Fist and some of his basic moves whereas Garou knows what Akame's Murasame does).

Speed equalized.

Who wins?
 
Akame wins by sheer virtue of the fact that there's literally never been a single fight where Garou didn't get hit. Let alone by someone as skilled as her.
 
Akame. Garou would have to be very careful not to get hit, and just one cut from Murasame would kill him. Considering that poison can kill people in seconds, I'm not sure Garou can adapt quickly enough to resist it either.

Against Metal Bat? Against a floor full of criminals? Against the Harsh Path Martial Artists? Against Tanktop Vegetarian? Against Overgrown Rover? Sure they're not as skilled as Akame, but Garou has gone through multiple fights where he hasn't been hit.

Akame couldn't get the hit on Zanku until she broke his blades, his method of deflection. Garou's method of deflection are his hands and legs, considering he could deflect the power of Metal Bat's attacks and then countless attacks the following day, Garou's method of deflection will be present throughout the whole fight.
 
Difference is, Garou was deflecting a blunt object there, and wouldn't be able to do the same with Murasame, unless he riskes getting cut.

Garou can deflect sharp objects. Garou literally deflected all of Golden Ball's barrage without getting cut. 1 2
 
Golden Ball doesn't have nearly the AP the Murasame does though. In fact, he's pretty much fodder in comparision.
 
First off, excellent revision of the first matchup. This is much more fairer.

Now issue is with the current arguments? Water Streaming Fist doesn't rely on just AP vs AP. It's about deflecting the attacks. I mean look at the Metal Bat vs Garou fight. One hit would end Garou yet he could still deflect them. Deflecting the blunt side of a blade is an option but also recall this. Akame would also know that her blade could get disarmed and now that she's aware of what the enemy can do she knows she can't just attack recklessly. She either has to go all in and hit which is extremely risky if she gets disarmed (She can fight without a weapon but I don't think that's a good idea) or make sure to absolutely nic Garou in a defensive style fight.

Garou also has a tendency of using surprise projectiles such as manhole covers so it won't be surprising if he used pebbles as weapons like what he did in his earlier fights. Personally I feel like we should wait a bit for Garou to fight someone with a blade, but then again that might take awhile.

Personally...

I think this can go either way so I'm voting tie. Both characters are too awesome for me to pick anyway.
 
He tends to do that for most enemies. And Teigus have a chance of being broken. Either way it's likelier that he just use projectiles and keep away, or find other means to deflect against other attacks.
 
The manga demonstrated the details of Whirlwind Iron Cutting Fist, a martial art that Garou also possesses. Which seems to have slightly more range than Waterstream Rock Smashing Fist.
 
Akame couldn't get the hit on Zanku until she broke his blades, his method of deflection. Garou's method of deflection are his hands and legs, considering he could deflect the power of Metal Bat's attacks and then countless attacks the following day, Garou's method of deflection will be present throughout the whole fight.

Congrats, you named one example out of many.

I point to her entire fight with Esdeath.
 
Against Metal Bat? Against a floor full of criminals? Against the Harsh Path Martial Artists? Against Tanktop Vegetarian? Against Overgrown Rover? Sure they're not as skilled as Akame, but Garou has gone through multiple fights where he hasn't been hit.

You might want to rewatch those fights again, Metal Bat and Rover managed to hit him multiple times and quite frankly, the other examples are him curbstompibg random fodder.
 
Did Bat actually even manage to lay a blow on Garou? Can't remember if he did. All I remember was Garou deflecting everything until Bat got his Fighting Spirit up and almost one shot him.
 
@Gargoyle One The only time Metal Bat hit Garou was here and it was more of a block than a hit considering it did no damage. The only other time where Metal Bat was going to hit Garou was during the end when his fighting spirit finally made him too fast for Garou and that can't even be applied to Akame vs Garou because speed is equalized. Though, I was wrong about Rover, his blasts did hit Garou a few times.


Esdeath doesn't have precognition like Zanku and Garou. Plus Esdeath had to fight a lot of opponents on top of Akame for Akame to get first cut.
 
Indeed. Metal Bat never hit Garou a single instance.

To add on, the only time Garou was ever hit was in a situation where he's already injured and was not expecting such attacks (Both from WDM and the former from the A-class heroes while he's literally still injured), and whenever dealing with blunt force objects. The only instance he was hit by a sharp object was Spring Swordsman (I call him that) because he wanted him to hit, but even his first instinct again something that can pierce him has always been "deflect" or "dodge". See Stinger, the guys from A class, Golden Ball, and etc. With the awareness of something that can one shot kill him, he's definitely not going in blind or would aim to avoid being cut apart. And considering the various evasive angles he can pull off, look at Genos vs Garou in manga, and how he can utilize various makeshift projectiles, A-class hero fight ,he can make it through.

And yeah the entire fight was a literal desperate attempt to defeat Esdeath before she could escape and get away.
 
First off, Esdeath fighting those enemies before wasn't her drained in any way, she was quite literally smiling and alighing the entire time while the army couldn't put a dent in her.

Second, you proved my point about Rover, even he managed to hit Garou once, let alone multiple times.

The hit was more of a deflect however, so point taken.

Yes it's precognition, but it's not fully reliable precognition as he's been hit before by people just as fast as him (Again Rover)

Actually, switch my vote to inconclusive, it's a close call.

Why Garou tho.
 
@Gargoyle One Esdeath was smiling throughout the whole fight with Akame, hell she smiled even when she admitted that she lost .

My point about Esdeath is that she was distracted, not that she was drained, for the first cut.

For Rover, the creature was spamming energy balls with huge explosion radii.

For the last question, this is a redo of an older thread.
 
Bro....

Flash vs Akame

Two reserved Katana wielding speedsters.

(Insert emperors new groove Face here)
 
True, that would be an interesting fight, but Flash's best feats are yet to be seen in the manga. Also, Sonic already lost to Akame, but strangely no one brought up Ten Shadows Burial during the Sonic vs Akame thread. Despite that, I might start that thread after this thread concludes if someone has not already.
 
As a wise man once said "Those poor unpopular and obscure characters, unable to rise up against the popular and famous. This is why I hate heroes, the concept of bias and-" *rants on*
 
AGK used to be so spammed people never bother anymore unless there's a genuinely good match.

Not saying this isn't good, people just don't care.
