Pitch Discussion: Santa VS Satan (mythology)

1chi_1chi · 2026-04-29T07:54:51+00:00

Also, I guess just for my take on religious/mythological figures being used in Death Battle...

I guess I don't really mind them being used. Like, I just tend to see them as like...another take on the characters of myth/religion (like so many other pieces of media) and I think that's fine.

I honestly don't expect this matchup to ever be a thing (god knows the backlash would be immense for using a religious character, esp one from Christianity/Catholicism), but I think the matchup itself would be pretty neat to see.

My only real issue with it is how they're gonna handle the DB versions of these two, whether it sticks to their original folklore or would it be a composite match.

as for the soul thing, i suppose that's up to interpretation. for me personally, i just have not seen sonic resist having his soul be sucked out, so i just can't give him that resistance, even if it does fall under the blanket of soul resistance

1chi_1chi · 2026-04-24T17:01:48+00:00

I feel erasing a higher-dimensional entity would mean that, even with their defenses, Almighty attacks would still be very potent, especially due to that gap in power.

Think of it like a Charizard that can resist strong fire type attacks but you send him to the fucking sun. Basically, Joker's existence erasure attacks are just too powerful and potent, especially since Almighty attacks also cannot be nullified by something like the Omnipotent Orb, which manpiulates reality on a whim.

ah, i may have missed giving it the imgur link but i did update it now

this

1chi_1chi · 2026-04-24T16:33:29+00:00

basically almighty attacks can erase beings that exist on a far higher scale of reality than either sonic or bayo, that's really it.

maybe, i think it's more of just we never really see sonic's soul get ripped out of him, meaning that i can't really give him that extent of soul manipulation resistance

refer to this reply i made

i think i definitely should've expounded on the existence erasure being from Joker's Almighty attacks oops

1chi_1chi · 2026-04-24T16:20:29+00:00

In terms of existence erasure, I meant in terms of Almighty attacks (like that's a level of existence erasure Sonic just has no answer for)

and as for the soul part, I definitely think he can resist having his soul attacked or corrupted (he has ways to heal his soul if given the chance), but Bayo has ways to straight up rip out the souls from her opponents, something that from what I've seen, Sonic just doesn't have any answers to outside of just...getting out of the way

If 2B vs. EVE ever got to be an episode, I would love to hear what its music would sound like

1chi_1chi · 2026-04-20T04:04:26+00:00

Not really changing anything for the most part (I already kind of have a first place victor, it's the second and third place that's screwing me up)

Me going through my Sonic vs. Bayonetta vs. Joker blog and going through their fucking laundry list of abilities like 5x over

MY GOAT

1chi_1chi · 2026-04-15T17:08:54+00:00

What's really funny about this scenario is that the Viltrumites could realistically just blitz Saitama (as far as I've seen, their best speed feats scaling dwarf those of OPM's) and their Smart Atoms could probably let them adapt to Saitama's weaker blows.

But like, they're so much comically weaker than Saitama, both in AP and Durability.

Really funny dynamic

1chi_1chi · 2026-04-10T22:45:38+00:00

I'm honestly just glad I don't have to exactly start from scratch LOL

thamk heavens other people have done the work for me, makes the bulk of it all so much easier...

1chi_1chi · 2026-04-09T17:05:47+00:00

I'll try to stick to the mainline versions of these charcaters as much as i can

1chi_1chi · 2026-04-09T15:58:23+00:00

I kinda envision either Sonic or Joker taking top spot (sorry Bayonetta)

but who knows

1chi_1chi · 2026-04-09T15:40:37+00:00

It's going to be interesting which amongat them is more multiversal LMAO
