One day, The Doctor discovered a human with some kind of strange energy radiating off of her. Not wanting to let this interesting subject slip by, he sent his servant, Misery, to kidnap this strange human, who turned out to be none other than Kagome Higurashi. Unsurprisingly, her friend Inuyasha discovers this and eventually manages to find his way onto The Island in search of Kagome, cutting down any monsters that stand in his way. Just as he was about to cut down a pair of Mimiga that seemed to have some terrible luck today, a shot blasted over Inuyasha's head. The half-yokai turned and saw a pale-looking boy holding some kind of firearm. Believing him to be a servant of The Doctor, Inuyasha then turned his blade onto this newcomer, and prepares to charge into battle.

In the blue corner, we have Quote from Cave Story, and in the red corner, we have Inuyasha from the show of the same name.

Quote render by HIT IT
Inuyasha (2)
-This is a battle to the death or incapacitation. No holds barred.
-Neither character are aware of each other beforehand, and there is no prep time.

-Neither character are allowed any outside help.

-This battle takes place in the Sand Zone of The Island, giving Quote the home-court advantage.

-Inuyasha is in his base Half-Yokai form for this fight.

-Speed is equalized.


With all this being said, let the debate begin!

Inuyasha: 7 (Hst master, Derpyrebound, Jackythejack, Litentric Teon, DarkDragonMedeus, ApiesDeathbyLazors, First Witch)

Quote: 1 (CrackerVolley)

Inconclusive: 1 (GyroNutz)
 
Funny you should make this, I was making some Cave Story profiles today. Will add input to this later

I was considering making a Misery profile at some point, tbh.
 
Actually, I can see Quote doing well against this technique. Meido Zangetsuha basically starts as a sword beam that splits off into many smaller sword beams, and upon hitting something, sucks anything nearby into the Netherworld forever. So, since Quote is pretty well versed in Danmaku, which is kind of what this turns out to be, I can see him managing to dodge and counter with his own attacks, especially since MZ is more effective against larger opponents which get handily cut down to size by this technique. Though, MZ is going to be Inuyasha's greatest asset here, because one hit will kill Quote.
 
MZ draws targets into it's path with the suction to the Netherworld while launched. And the fact he spams several at once makes it hard to dodge.
 
Hm, odd. If it was the high-end of the calc, he'd be pretty even with Quote. But if he's truly the low end, then Meido Zangetsuha may be his only option in this fight.
 
Correct me if I'm wrong on this, but Quote probably takes this with the varied arsenal and higher AP if that's the case
 
For now, ima go inconclusive. Quote likely wins by shooting once and is very mobile + quite experienced with danmaku, but there's still a good chance he'll get hit by MZ

I vote for Inuyasha. Medio Zangetsuha is a one hit kill that sends you or an array of your body parts to Hell, it depends if you get hit by the sphere or blade version of the technique. On top of that, Inuyasha was still running around with a hole in his torso that severed his spine completely in a couple of different chapters in the manga and episodes of the anime. Since Kagome is involved in this fight in a way, Inuyasha is NOT going to take this one lying down at all. When Kagome's life is on the line, the gloves are off.

Sorry to say, but this is largely irrelevant. Each of Quote's shots are far above the one-shot gap, so they'd destroy Inuyasha's body on contact. Unless there's some Low 7-B feat that I don't know about

Actually it is. Kagome was in danger when said injury happened, and Inuyasha ignores his injuries when her life is on the line. He keeps fighting until he knows she is safe. He has been stated and shown to get his act together when she is threatened in any shape or form. The poster said that Kagome was kidnapped in this scenario, so Inuyasha is not going to be rolling over for Quote that easily.


Inuyasha has Low-Mid Regenerationn on top of that. He could recover from said hole just fine and also regenerate any teeth he lost and an entire eyeball after Sesshomaru gouged it out for the black pearl.

Also, his Robe of the Fire Rat protects him from most damage (unless the damage comes from weapons/abilities empowered by spiritual energy or very potent demonic energy) while giving him complete immunity to fire-related things, making fire and explosion manipulation completely useless. The Robe of the Fire Rat also mends itself. Only Mount Hakurei, while the holy barrier was active, could render the robe completely usless (and it took a long while before said barrier turned Inuyasha human completely as the barrier can only destroy full demons, half demons are just rendered human).

As for electricity, Tessaiga's sheath can deflect that with ease as in the Thunder Brother's arc, he used it to deflect real lightning that was summoned by the Thunder Brothers with ease. Inuyasha also has a feat where he has dodged said lightning, too.

On top of that, Tessaiga can steal energy and abilities, especially in its Dragon-Scale form (granted, in that form, it's true purpose is to CUT through that energy to weaken, and potentially kill, foes by cutting off part or all of their connection to their supernatural energy (i.e. Demon Vortex) and Inuyasha cutting his own increases his power rather than hurt him).

Also... What can Quote do to stop Meido Zangetsuha? I see no resistances against a portal to Hell on Quote's profile.
 
"Actually it is. Kagome was in danger when said injury happened, and Inuyasha ignores his injuries when her life is on the line."

This isn't just injuries though. It's death. One shot will easily kill Inuyasha.

"Inuyasha has Low-Mid Regenerationn on top of that. He could recover from said hole just fine and also regenerate any teeth he lost and an entire eyeball"

Again, the AP gap is such that Quote one-shots with any attack. Regenerationn doesn't come into play, and even if he did survive a hit, Quote fires successive shots so Inuyasha would be extremely hard pressed to dodge them.

"Also, his Robe of the Fire Rat protects him from most damage while giving him complete immunity to fire-related things, making fire and explosion manipulation completely useless."

Fire resistance doesn't protect against missiles exploding in your face. Reading the description of the Robe of the Fire Rat implies that it's just a form of armour, meaning it won't be able to protect from Quote's regular shots enough to mean anything.

"On top of that, Tessaiga can steal energy and abilities, especially in its Dragon-Scale form"

Can he steal the powers of a robot who doesn't even use his own powers to fight, but rather just shoots things? And can he do it well enough to protect from being one-shot if the answer to the last sentence was somehow 'yes'?

"Also... What can Quote do to stop Meido Zangetsuha? I see no resistances against a portal to Hell on Quote's profile."

He can dodge, as he is very mobile + has decent experience against Danmaku.
 
>He can dodge.

No, he can't. Not only does the Meido's suction draw targets into it's path specifically to counter dodging, Inuyasha throws them in spades and can use the original version of meido, which caused a majority of a small mountain to be destroyed in the process. And after he gets it, he spams it.
 
How strong is the suction? Also, like I said, he has decent experience against Danmaku,
 
GyroNutz said:

It immediately started pulling in Naraku when he 1st used it. There was also several around him at once. And there's the original version.

Prove it.

Again, the AP gap is such that Quote one-shots with any attack. Regenerationn doesn't come into play, and even if he did survive a hit, Quote fires successive shots so Inuyasha would be extremely hard pressed to dodge them.

Quote is only Small City Level for AP. Inuyasha is Small City level for AP. Quote has Small City Durability and so does Inuyasha. They are EQUAL for AP and durability.

Fire resistance doesn't protect against missiles exploding in your face. Reading the description of the Robe of the Fire Rat implies that it's just a form of armour, meaning it won't be able to protect from Quote's regular shots enough to mean anything.

It protects against the heat part of the explosion. Also the shots do not have demon-fighting capabilities. They are not for fighting demons, only things like mages. The fire rat robe protected Kagome from Yura's hair decapitating her, and her hair easily broke a really thick tree when she tried and failed to decapitate Inuyasha. And on another note, during the fight between Sesshomaru and Inuyasha over Tessaiga in the Netherworld, Tessaiga protected Kagome from Sesshomaru's corrosive/acidic poison, it is highly likely Tessaiga will also protect Inuyasha.

Can he steal the powers of a robot who doesn't even use his own powers to fight, but rather just shoots things? And can he do it well enough to protect from being one-shot if the answer to the last sentence was somehow 'yes'?

I was just mentioning it as a feat. Inuyasha can cut his own demon vortex to increase his power, especially in full demon form.

He can dodge, as he is very mobile + has decent experience against Danmaku.

Where's the proof of Danmaku's speed? I do not see a page on this wikia for him. Also, Inuyasha, despite having Superhuman Speed (which honestly needs to be increased in my opinion), has HYPER-SONIC reactions (He DODGED LIGHTING multiple times). Also, how do you dodge HUNDREDS of Medio Blades being launched successively like what happened when Inuyasha made Meido Zangetsuha his in the final battle against Naraku?

Also, Inuyasha's full demon form, while mindless some of the time (he has powered through it to maintain a good chunk of himself, like how he did during the fight against Magatsuhi inside of Naraku), it increased his stats.
 
Here is Inuyasha's calc. The accepted end seems to be 124kt (also I believe we use low-end by default if neither is objectively 'better' than the other). Quote's AP is >> 3.17 megatons.

Which reminds me. If we accept the lower end, Inuyasha should be downgraded to Large Town level. If we accept the high end (preferably say why) then they should be Small City level+, meaning this would be a stomp as Quote would have pretty much no good win condition

But that is only AP. Inuyasha's durability is still the same level as Quote's AP. On top of that, Inuyasha has been shown to take great deals of damage. He has been thrown into the ground so hard that he left a crater. He has been also "sat" to the point he wound up buried in the ground. He has fallen off a number of cliffs (and even a building thanks to a sit command, leaving a crater in concrete) over the course of the series. At one point, he was high on some sort of herb, chased a butterfly and fell off a cliff. No, it wasn't stated to be marijuana, but it might as well be considering he was stoned to point that all he did was behave like a dog for the rest of the chapter.

As for why to not downgrade AP. Inuyasha has destroyed a freaking mountain "with ease" before mid-way in the story. It is under his feats on his page on this very site with proof (there is a show/hide button you will need to click to see the link to the feat proof). If anything, he should have MOUNTAIN level attack power for the upper level of his AP.

And also, his durability should have a small increase because Inuyasha has tanked his own sword's abiities a few times, in the latest case, the last time he fought against Sesshomaru over Tessaiga. In that battle, Sesshomaru had put Kanna's mirror shards on his Tensaiga to completely steal and perfectly replicate Tessaiga's abilties. Also, when dealing with Hosenki, Inuyasha tanked Hosenki's Adamant Barrage and was still walking around with giant diamond spears impalling him cleanly through all over him (he looked like an abused pin cushion that was still able to run around and fight). The spears disappeared and allowed him to heal and obtain the ability to use Adamant Barrage himself when he finally chose friendship over power because his friends were about to get caught in Naraku's miasma and he would never let them die no matter what. As for tanking explosions, Inuyasha has done it and it too is in his feats section. And he has tanked lightning in other ways than just deflection. Again, he got impaled by a pike that was infused with lightning.

I am now realizing how much impalement Inuyasha has suffered in the entire story... o_O' Small tangent, but eh...

Regardless, I am keeping my vote on Inuyasha. The only out of universe characters that I don't even have to think about when it comes to putting Inuyasha down are Dragon Ball characters (the DB universe is way too OP no matter how you put it).
 
I guess my main thing here is, Meido Zangetsuha has an absolutely massive amount of AoE. In addition to having some strong suction. Dodging danmaku, unless it's of a comparable size, does not stack up to having waves the sizes of half a mountain being tossed at you, that suck you in if you're anywhere close. I doubt Quote has that level of maneuverability.

Also, if Inuyasha is only 124kt is that even small city level? Because if not, then I'm fairly certain his profile needs to be adjusted to reflect that.
 
@Gyro

Actually, looking at the calc myself, it seems you just chose the wrong end. Low 7-B means the high end was accepted. So 3.3 Megatons.
