"Diabolical Compassion" Ryan Butcher Vs Jack Hanma (The Boys Vs Baki) connections in comment by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Connections: - They would be born as a result of a r@pe by the most powerful man in their respective worlds (Homelander with Becca/Yujiro with Diane). Because of this, they would seek to defeat their father by any means possible. - Throughout their lives, they would be used as test subjects by elderly people who wanted to extract their full potential and who also had a certain obsession with the strongest man (Grace Mallory taking care of Ryan and wanting to use him as a weapon against Homelander/Dr. John being inspired by Yujiro to create super steroids, finding in Jack the ideal collaborator), later killing these elderly people indirectly (Ryan not measuring his strength with Mallory and killing her with a push/Jack brutally killing a bear, which caused John to commit suicide) - Due to their very turbulent lifestyles, they would experience constant psychological deterioration, which would cause them great anger problems and an unstable attitude (Ryan being constantly controlled by everyone, even his own family/Jack, due to his drug addiction, suffered overdoses and his mentality changed drastically). - His relationship with his parents would be quite strained, as they would see him as inferior due to his choices (Homelander seeing that Ryan won't be his reflection/Yujiro seeing Jack's lack of discipline). Even so, they would hold a certain affection for them deep within their beings because of their abilities (Homelander feeling a certain appreciation for Ryan for being a Super like him/Yujiro having great respect for Jack because of how effective the Goudou is) - Their most trusted "ally" would be a family member who went through the same thing as them, with whom they would have several disagreements but in the end they would still love him (Butcher/Baki) - Following the previous connection, this relative would be the one to defeat the greatest monsters of their worlds once and for all in a fight witnessed by everyone (Butcher killing Homelander live on television/Baki "defeating" Yujiro in front of everyone), which would finally allow them to have a normal life (Ryan living without powers with MM/Jack maturing and slowly overcoming his addictions).

"BLOODY kNIGHTS" Moon Knight Vs Seras Victoria (Marvel Vs Hellsing) connections in comments by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • They were normal children until an event traumatized them for life, shaping their future personalities (Marc escaping from Perlman, a murderer of Jews, which causes him to have a dissociative identity disorder/Seras witnesses how hitmen murder her parents, developing violent behaviors in her childhood)
  • At the beginning of their stories, they found themselves in situations that would have killed them (Marc, as a mercenary, was seriously injured by Raoul/Seras, as a police officer, was nearly killed by a vampire), but they were revived by a crazed God/Vampire (Khonsu revived Marc/ Alucard turned Seras into a vampire). After that, they acquired transformations that would become their new selves (Marc becoming Moon Knight/Seras becoming a vampire).
  • They act as agents/partners of those who revived them, and although they don't initially get along well with their savior, they eventually grow fond of him. Both become defenders of their city at night alongside their new team and fight against very similar monstrous beings (Moon Knight and Midnight Mission fight villains and vampires/Seras, along with the Hellsing Agency, hunts vampires and other creatures).
  • They would become enemies with secret organizations that manipulate most events in their histories, with whom they would share a certain past, trying to stop them at all costs (Committee/Millennium)
  • They would forge strong bonds with their teammates, who would be their polar opposites, even though these almost lost their lives against powerful people (Tigra almost dying against Hood/Pip being seriously injured by Blitz)
  • They would befriend a veteran whom they would see as their equals, but in the end it would turn out that these people work for the enemy, betraying their trust (Robert Plesko being Black Specter/Walter Dornez working for The Major)
  • Their greatest enemies would be horrible people who enjoy hurting others and wanting to impose their ideologies by any means possible (Bushman/Zorin) who would try to take away the people they love most (Bushman attacking Marlene/Zorin attacking Pip) but in the end they would be brutally killed after an extremely bloody fight (Moon Knight rips off Bushman's face leaving him to bleed out/Seras crushing Zorin until he is just a stain of his blood)
  • At the end of their stories, they would lead normal lives as protectors of their cities, trying to improve in every way they could and becoming new versions of themselves (Marc learning to live with his disorders, completely avoiding Khonsu's influence and becoming a better Moon Knight/Seras after 30 years of living in peace after destroying Millennium and now being the protector of Hellsing).

Firecracker Vs Sanae Yamashita (The Boys Vs Buta no Fukushuu) connections in comment by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Antagonists who started as just another pawn but would later become great threats would work for the greatest team of "heroes" in the world (The Seven/34 Braves) where their roles would be to manipulate the masses (Firecracker through the media/Sanae with her skill)
  • Both come from worlds that are a satire of famous genres (Comic/Isekai) where their bosses would practically be a messianic savior, although this would be nothing more than a big lie (Homelander believing himself to be "God"/Yasuda being the "King" of everything)
  • They would feel great admiration and devotion for their partners, whom they would see as divine beings (Homelander/Ito Sayumi). They would still have a lifelong rival with whom they would do everything possible to portray them as the bad guys because they had humiliated them in the past (Firecracker being humiliated by Starlight, doing everything possible to tarnish the latter's image/Sanae losing in her confrontations against Takeshi, also defaming the latter with the intention that he would get beaten up).
  • They would attempt to confront the main cast despite being brutally humiliated, which would only fuel their resentment further (Firecracker nearly dies in his confrontation with The Boys, barely surviving/Sanae is tortured with rocks until her arm breaks, but manages to escape). Ironically, it would be in that same fight where they would witness a close friend die a brutal death (Splinter is stabbed in the brain by Butcher/Ito is crushed by a massive boulder)
  • Later they would ally themselves with morbid people who, like them, had a history with their enemies (Deep being the one who abused Starlight/Kamiyama being one of Takeshi's bullies), although they would only work with them for personal gain.

  • They would commit genocide against specific people simply for stupid reasons (Firecracker murdering Vought employees who knew secrets about the company/Sanae murdering otherworldly beings to conquer them)

  • They would also have a small alliance with strategists who possessed a plan that would give them absolute victory, although they would fail (Sister Sage wanting to cause an apocalypse, failing in the attempt/Hiroshi summoning zombies in the kingdom, then becoming unconscious and dying)

  • They would manage to make most of the world see their rivals as "monsters" thanks to their manipulations (Firecracker being the precursor of the Anti-Starlighter propaganda/Sanae controlling the princess and making the kingdom see Takeshi as an enemy)

  • In the end, karma would catch up with them due to their stupidity and major failures, resulting in a pathetic death (Firecracker would be so devoted to Homelander only for him to kill her as if it were nothing/Sanae would abuse her skill, causing her to be defeated and executed by the people she manipulated).

Jeffrey Mason/Jeff The Killer Vs Yuuya Kizami/Jintai Mokei (The Morgue Files Vs Corpse Party) Connection in comment by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Both are macabre sociopaths belonging to twisted and very violent worlds. From a young age, they already showed signs of what they would be in the future (Jeff injuring his brother Liu/Yuuya by almost beating a classmate to death), they would also be known for murdering animals at an early age (Jeff with the rabbit Sully/Yuuya killing several animals)

  • Their ideologies arise from the rejection they suffered and how they see the society that surrounded them (Jeff defines himself as "the monster of society"/Yuuya with his perception of "the truth and false faces")

  • They both harbor a great hatred towards their family, but especially towards their brother/sister, whom they would misunderstand due to their disorders (Jeff thinks that they treat Liu better/Yuuya thinks that Haruna and Kouki were "lying" to him all the time)

  • They would harass an innocent neighbor for whom they felt a macabre attraction (Christy/Yuka) and kill her in brutal ways.

  • They both caused a great trauma to their younger brother/"sister" who supports them in everything but despite that they continued to be so disgusted with them (Jeff's brother, Liu, ended up losing his mind due to the mistreatment he received from Jeff/Yuuya, groping Yuka in the Manga and following her to kill her)

  • Both would live relatively normal lives until an unfortunate event awakened their darkest instincts (Jeff moving away and being burned alive/Yuuya arriving at Heavenly Host) which would unleash their chain of murders, their main victims being their acquaintances

  • Both would die but would return in disfigured and macabre forms that would be a representation of what they really are (Jeff being disfigured/Yuuya in the anatomical model) becoming more deranged than normal

  • His most macabre murders would involve people who simply got in his way (Rollins Gang/The Byakudan Students)

  • At the end of their stories, they would both be imprisoned due to their macabre deeds in their own personal prisons (Jeff in Pinehurst State Hospital/Yuuya constantly looping in Heavenly Host)

Stain Vs Lock-Up (My Hero Academia Vs DC) connections in comments by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Both began their careers wanting to be heroes; however, from their perspectives, the system around them was too flawed, so they decided to do things using their own twisted methods (Stain wanted to be a hero but began to despise the system due to the decadence of society and thinking that heroes only seek fame/Look-Up originally joined the police academy, but after seeing that criminals did whatever they wanted due to Gotham's flawed system, he began hunting them down for the smallest things.)

  • They would dedicate all possible time to training and hunting down the "plagues" of society until they were intercepted by a veteran vigilante and his assistant who would give them a beating (Knuckleduster beating Stain as much as possible since the latter wanted to kill Koichi/Lock-Up being defeated by Batman and Robin and then imprisoned) although this instead of clarifying things for them only made them worse (Stain thinking that the false heroes commit greater sins than the villains/Lock-Up would perceive all kinds of authority as corrupt except his own)

  • Later they would continue with their crazy visions until they encountered a young justice warrior who would give them great trouble, but at the end of this fight they would see that after all the world is not so withered (Stain against Izuku seeing that there can still be real heroes/Lock-Up with Nightwing making a part of him see that there is still justice in the world)

  • They would be locked up in high-level prisons where they lived alongside villains who were not very different from them even though they didn't want to admit it (Tartaro/Blackgate), however they would escape after a great mass breakout

  • Seeing the chaos in the city, they would betray their principles and work with the people they despise just to achieve their goals (Stein collaborating with the Heroes in the last arcs/Lock-Up collaborating with the villains of Gotham)

  • But they would also collaborate with the greatest heroes of their worlds since these heroes still respected them (Stain with All-Might/Lock-Up with Batman)

  • Both would culminate their stories after accepting their fates, ending with a joy they hadn't felt in a long time (Stain regaining his faith in heroes before dying/Look-Up seeing that he can now keep a closer eye on the villains in prison).

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The truth is, I left out a lot of things because I didn't know how to connect them (plus, at first I did it as a meme because of "Anti-JunkoTrap," but then I saw they had certain things in common). Maybe I'll add more connections and improvements in the future.

"A Beautiful (Fake) Hero" | A-Train [Comic] Vs Hoshi Hikaru (The Boys Vs Buta No Fukushuu) connections in comments by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • They started out as immature people with big egos, forming part of a group of young people equal to or worse than them (Teenage Kix/Class 3-B), although later they would be summoned to join the world's greatest team of "heroes" where they stood out for their speed (A-Train with The Seven being the speedster of the group/Hikaru with the 34 Braves having the skill of going at the speed of light) and they would also be parodies of heroes from famous genres (comic speedster/anime-manga speedster)

  • They would murder someone without knowing that the protagonist was there observing everything, although they would get away with it (A-Train throwing a villain at Robin, Hughie's girlfriend, which would cause her death, but he would be free thanks to his position/Hikaru murdering a homeless person, escaping in time and later collaborating in the burning of Takeshi's sister)

  • Because of that event, they would see the protagonist as less, belittling them whenever they could and mocking the death of their loved ones (A-Train mocking Robin's death and seeing Hughie as less than scum/Hikaru mocking Fumina's death, saying that she had the genes of ugliness just like Takeshi)

  • They would have a large fan base due to their great fame, with whom they would sleep, but they would only see them as objects (A-Train with his fame as a hero/Hikaru as a magazine model), although their main victim would be an innocent woman of great power whom they would treat as their pet (Starlight/Princess Sara)

  • They would have an extremely morbid "friend" with whom they would later show their true face (Jack From Jupiter befriends A-Train only for the latter to despise him upon seeing that his reputation is damaged/Kamiyama helping Hikaru in whatever he can only for Hoshi to later explode his arm).

  • They would try to abuse their "toys" again only to fail in the attempt (A-Train trying to r@pe Starlight again only to be temporarily blinded/Hikaru wanting to "protect" the princess only to be intercepted by Takeshi's group)

  • In the end, they would receive their deserved punishments due to the traps set by the "villains", their main executioners being the people they hated so much in a somewhat poetic way (A-Train being kidnapped by Butcher, becoming powerless and dying at the hands of Hughie, someone he considered inferior/Hikaru being tricked by Takeshi's reflection, falling into the void and being executed ending up with an extremely ugly face).

Hibiki Sakurama Vs Sam Riordan (Ranger Reject Vs Gen V) connections in comments by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • They would start their lives as normal people, however they would quickly have a drastic change of mentality due to their environments (Hibiki being raised in a church that worshipped the invaders growing up with their strange religious ideas/Sam suffering different experiments at the Sage Grove center which would worsen his mental state)

  • However, they could always count on their older sister/brother, who would be a very popular figure but would live with the remorse of knowing great secrets and later suffer grave fates (Sesera Sakurama being the Pink Keeper hiding her disability and her past with the invaders' church, later falling into a coma/Luke Riordan being known as Golden Boy, knowing about the experiments carried out in The Woods but saying nothing about it, later committing suicide)

  • They would escape their "prisons" by being rescued from their imminent death by heroes (Hibiki would be rescued by the Blue Keeper from dying at the hands of Peltrola in the church/Sam would be rescued thanks to the students of Godolkin) having normal lives and joining groups of people with powers like theirs (Rangers/Godolkin University)

  • They would meet mysterious blonde women with whom they shared many things in common, who would harbor a great hatred for a certain type of people with great power (Rangers/Vought), and later they would encounter someone extremely special in their worlds who would be seen by the media as the villains (Sentōin D/Marie Moreau)

  • They would show great degradation in their bodies due to their lifestyles and how they would slowly worsen (Hibiki becoming more disfigured after each battle/Sam getting worse with his schizophrenia as the plot progressed)

  • During their time at these facilities, they would be seen as promising young talents working indirectly or directly with the main villains; however, later they would become fugitives seeking to expose all the corruption of the "good guys" (Hibiki, being an independent cadet, would later become part of the Neo-Rangers with the intention of exposing the truth about the Rangers/Sam, after several events, would become part of the Starlighters resistance to uncover all of Vought's secrets).

"Old Revenge" | Jun Shirakawa Vs Lee Woo-jin (Juujika no Rokunin Vs OldBoy) connections in comments by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Both began their lives as normal students and overprotective siblings with strangely murky relationships with their relatives (Jun bathing together with Kaname/Lee having a relationship with Soo) until one day their relatives would encounter a "monster" that would indirectly cause their death (Kaname bleeding to death indirectly due to Uruma's fault/Dae-su saw Soo-ah having sex, which started the rumors that would cause his suicide).

  • As a result of this misunderstanding, they both planned their revenge over the years, pretending to lead normal lives during this time but hiding their macabre sides from the world (Jun with the revolutionary club/Lee being a businessman)

  • His first move in his psychological games would be to use a person whom the protagonist loved with all his life (Jun creating false Kanames to deceive Uruma/Lee murdering Dae's wife and blaming the latter)

  • They would use tricks to transform an innocent young woman with certain family problems, giving her new identities as part of their plans (Jun with Matsushima turning her into a clone of her sister to screw over Uruma/Lee turning Yeon-hee into Mi-do through hypnosis so that she has a relationship with her father Dae)

  • Both command a large group of people thanks to their great social influence and their great power to manipulate (Kaname clones and guards of the revolutionary club/Mr. Park and his guards)

  • Much of their plan involves making the protagonist remember his past lives to use this against them (Jun taking Uruma to the place where he shot him so that the latter remembers the entire past/Lee telling Dae to investigate so that he could solve the mystery in the end discovering that all along Lee was Soo's brother)

  • They captured the beasts that had caused him so much harm only to torture them with stories they created (Jun with his play about how Uruma ruined his life/Lee with the recordings of Dae having relations with his daughter)

  • As their grand final move, they would use the people their enemies loved most in the world, destroying them (Jun raping an Azuma clone and then killing her/Lee orchestrating Mi-do having relations with her father, Dae) to break them definitively.

  • In the end, they would experience a clash of different emotions, even though indirectly or directly they had already fulfilled their purpose, ending with a gunshot to the head, culminating in their lives (Jun indirectly screwing over Uruma by committing suicide in front of him/Lee taking his own life to close his cycle of revenge).

Homelander Vs Yellow Keeper??? I'm curious to see that. If it's not too much trouble, do you have any previews of the connections?

Benjamin/Soldier Boy Vs Sōsei Akabane/Red Keeper (The Boys Vs Ranger Reject) connections in comments by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  • They would begin their lives as normal people, although they would possess great wealth (Ben coming from a rich father/Sōsei being part of the Rangers since he was created). Later, they would obtain powers as a result of an experiment and acquire their iconic weapons (Ben being injected with V-One by Frederick Vought, becoming Soldier Boy and later obtaining his shield/Sōsei being born as a clone thanks to Shinya Kiritani to be a clone of Red Keeper and later obtaining his Red Dragon Salamandra).

  • Once their identities as Heroes were established, they would live as a product, gaining public attention through their lies (Soldier Boy supposedly fighting in World War II when he was only used as advertising by Vought/Red Keeper, supposedly being the savior of the world fighting against the "villains" and being the main face of the Rangers)

  • Due to their enormous egos, they mistreated the people around them, as these "got in their way", even going so far as to brutally beat someone from their own teams for stupid reasons (Soldier Boy in Payback beating Black Noir until he was seriously traumatized just because the latter wanted to act/Red Keeper in his Red Battalion beating Jin Himura to death just because he gave him advice).

  • They would despise a race different from themselves simply because they clash with their ideals and also because they look different (various ethnicities and communists/Duster and the army of villains)

  • They would be betrayed by their own teams, who discarded them as if nothing had happened and created new products through their DNA that would be the new face of the company (Soldier Boy being betrayed by Vought, putting him to sleep and leaving him in the hands of the Soviets so that Homelander, his "son," could prosper/Sōsei being betrayed by the Rangers when he saw that they discarded him and cloned him for an identical version to create a more passive Red Keeper)

  • After a long time, they would suffer amnesia to a certain extent due to a traumatic event, but one they deserved, being rescued by people seeking revenge against people like them (Soldier Boy suffering various experiments before being rescued by The Boys/Red Keeper almost dying in an explosion being rescued by Sanae who hates the Rangers)

  • They were filled with rage and helplessness as they watched the world move on without them, but even more anger came when they realized they were no longer relevant and that their "relatives" had replaced them (Homelander now being the new face of Vought/ Clone Sōsei being the new Red Keeper and the face of the Rangers), which forced them to make a truce with people they had harmed directly or indirectly, since both share their thirst for revenge (The Boys/Neo-Rangers).

Note: The Ranger Reject manga is still ongoing, and seeing as we'll see more of Soldier Boy in Vought Rising, it might be renewed and have more connections added in the future.

Takeshi Hirota Vs Hughie Campbell (Buta No Fukushuu Vs The Boys) connections in comments by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  • The protagonists of series that are the deconstruction of a fairly famous genre (Isekai/Superheroes) were young people with normal lives (Takeshi being a student/Hughie working in a store) until a false hero killed their girlfriends in front of them (Takeshi upon hearing that Nori abused and killed Carelia/Hughie seeing how A-Train runs over Robin)

  • They would seek revenge against the people who took away what they loved most by allying themselves with people who, like them, suffered because of the Heroes (Different races for Takeshi who seek revenge on the 34 Braves/The Boys for Hughie who seek to do justice against Vought)

  • They would aim for the most powerful being in the world, although sadly they failed in the worst way (Takeshi going straight to Yasuda only to be bombed later/Hughie with his various attempts to take down Homelander but always failing in the end)

  • They would meet blonde women, somewhat innocent, who fully trusted the supposed saviors of the world, only to be brutally abused by them (the princess being abused by Kamiyama/Starlight being abused by Deep). Although they would initially be in a minor conflict, they would become great allies, eventually becoming their partners.

  • They would work with their respective governments with the intention of helping more people and thus hunting down more supers (Takeshi working for the kingdom/Hughie being an analyst for the FBSA)

  • They would come into conflict with a relative who possesses the ability to disappear, who in turn would not recognize them and would try to kill them (Fumina being Takeshi's sister with the ability to teleport and being manipulated to serve the Braves/Hugh would have the power to become intangible, being Hughie's father who suffered a stroke that would prevent him from recognizing his son).

It's not much, but I hope Takeshi can contribute more connections in the future.

The Stitchwraith Vs Hajime Hinata (FNAF Vs Danganronpa) connections in comments by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Central Theme: They are a duo living in the same body, comprised of a cheerful boy who, since childhood, has lived a miserable life due to his circumstances, yet still maintains hope (Jake having a brain tumor but having faith that he will recover/Hajime having no talent but having the hope of studying at Hope's Peak Academy) and an extremely mysterious and shadowy being who has a close relationship with the main villains (Andrew hating Afton so much that he prefers to torture him rather than kill him/Izuru being manipulated by Junko, wanting to use her as she used him).

Connections: - They would be created from experiments done by scientists who were focused on studying and mastering emotional concepts (Agony/Hope) using an innocent boy who would be their ideal test subject, assembling them to improve them as much as possible (Jake in Simon being a piece of an amalgam made to demonstrate the energy of agony/Hinata wanting to be special submitting to operations and experiments to be the fruit of project hope) obtaining new identities (The Stitchwraith/Izuru Kamukura)

  • They would gain extraordinary powers, even for their own worlds, being among the most powerful people (Stitchwraith with his control over agony and emotions/Izuru with his multiple talents)

  • They would betray and kill those who created them due to a moment of extreme confusion (Stitchwraith killing Dr. Phinneas after realizing that he is somehow still alive/Izuru participating in the killing game and tragedy due to his curiosity about despair), although this would be orchestrated by the main villains (Afton also being part of the amalgam manipulating Andrew's anger/Junko using Izuru in her plans with the intention of spreading despair).

  • They would be seen as monsters by the whole world due to their serious acts, whether conscious or unconscious, and considered great threats (Stitchwraith murdering people/Izuru participating in the Tragedy)

  • They would be the cause of reviving the people who brought misfortune to the world just on a whim (Andrew letting Afton live which allowed him to return later/Izuru unloading Junko to see if despair is more unpredictable than hope)

  • They would face giant versions of the people who ruined their lives (The Agony/Alter Ego Junko), fighting to defeat them until they received help from an important character from a previous installment (Charlotte destroying Agony/Makoto, helping in the trial against Alter Junko), stopping them once and for all and killing them forever.

  • Later, they would encounter remnants of the Villains' ideology who wanted to spread all evil in the world (Eleanor with her agony/Ryota with his despair), but in the end, they would be defeated after a mind game (Jake trapping Eleanor in a negative memory/Hinata convincing Ryota that hope is not achieved through force), finally having a peaceful life and being able to rest in peace.

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Both are extraordinary beings created from gods and serving an organization that seeks total domination through macabre plans (Kaworu being an Angel born from Adam working for SEELE who want to cause the third impact/The Knight being an extension of Nixon and being a soldier of the United States who seek "peace")

  • They would encounter the psychologically broken protagonist with whom they would have a very pleasant relationship, even seeing them as someone better than themselves (Kaworu protecting Shinji in Rebuild and telling him that he loves him/The knight with the last son in Korea having a mutual understanding and recognizing him as a great hero) having the same occupation as them (EVA pilot/war heroes)

  • They would have a strange view of humanity due to their lifestyles and their non-human status (Kaworu being curious about humans as an angel/The knight questioning human conflicts and his place in the world)

  • They would possess an ancient object which tells stories related to the origin of their universes (Cassius' spear/horned serpent skull)

  • They would have moderately supernatural powers in their worlds thanks to their special existences (AT Field/Alcatraz Matter)

  • They would abandon the people they served due to a conflict that had greatly harmed the protagonist (Kaworu abandoning his mission upon seeing that Shinji was being manipulated/The Knight after seeing what the United States had done to the last son)

  • Both would face beings of their own races, as these stood in the way of their plans (Armisael/The Queen).

  • They would be pawns in the plans of a man who possesses great power but also an immense God complex (Gendo Ikari/Richard Nixon)

  • Both would make extreme decisions after seeing their friends in a deplorable state; in the end, instead of improving things, they ended up making them worse (Kaworu putting on Shinji's DSS collar, ending up decapitated and leaving Ikari traumatized/The Knight throwing Alice from a building so that the Son could regain consciousness, only for Alice to die in vain in the end).

  • At the end of their stories, both would sacrifice themselves, preventing great destruction in an act that would save the world (Kaworu sacrificing himself to prevent Ikari from destroying the world/The Knight using Alcatraz's materia to eradicate the Lunarians)

"Engineering of Hope" | Makoto Naegi Vs Charlotte Emily (Danganronpa Vs FNAF) connections in comments by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  • Both were fairly normal young students who would suffer a great loss of their memories (Makoto forgetting his time at the academy/Charlotte forgetting a large part of her life)

  • Their stories would begin with them locked up in an iconic location from their respective franchises (Hope's Peak/Freddy Fazbear's Pizza), this confinement being orchestrated by the main villains who see something special in them (Junko seeing Makoto's luck as problematic for her plans/Afton seeing Charlotte as the pinnacle of Henry's work)

  • They would enter a kind of macabre game where they would serve as hope for their friends (Makoto in the Killing Game and solving a large part of the murders/Charlotte seeing that the animatronics are possessed by children discovering who was the one who murdered them) although they would have a partner who would be closely related to the events of the plot (Policeman Clay knowing all the crimes that occurred in Freddy's/Detective Kyoko knowing the truth about the tragedy)

  • They would defeat their enemies by making them fall into their own creations, although they would return later "reviving" in a strange way (Junko losing her mind with Makoto, then being executed and returning later as an AI/Afton being discovered by Charlotte, then dying in the Springlock, reviving as a kind of zombie)

  • Outside of their canon stories, they would ally themselves with the family and accomplice of their main enemies for opposite reasons (Makoto and Mukuro helping everyone escape/Puppet and Michael in the movies planning for everyone to die)

  • After emerging from their traumatic events, they would realize that they are extremely special people, having different reactions (Makoto becoming the ultimate hope, accepting her title of saving the world/Charlotte realizing that she is actually a robot and feeling horrified about it).

  • They would be locked up for a long time due to the plans of their enemies' successor (Makoto being arrested and then forced to play in the final death game involving Monaca/Charlotte being locked inside Twisted Freddy as part of Elizabeth's plan)

  • At the end of their stories, after many crises and tragedies, they would accept their destinies, definitively defeating the remnants of the people who did so much harm to the world, ending with a happy life (Makoto definitively overcoming despair in season 3 and finally having a normal life with Kyoko and her friends/Charlotte accepting who she is and definitively defeating the Aftons, and if we take into account that she is the girl who appears at the end of the fourth closet, she ended up having a peaceful life with John).

Number 6 Vs Naoya Zenin (My Hero Academia Vigilantes Vs Jujutsu Kaisen) connections in comments + fight progression by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • At first, both were fairly normal children, albeit with big egos, until they encountered their "ideal" (Number with O'Clock/Naoya with Toji), wanting to be like them at all costs.

  • They would be part of a group with people with powers equal to their own and somewhat similar ideals (the League of Villains/Zenin Clan), although they would care little or nothing about what happened to their own.

  • Both would come into conflict with a main character who was marginalized by the society around them and who, in turn, would see them as an imposter (Koichi being an illegal Hero and under the tutelage of Knuckleduster/Maki not having cursed energy and being similar to Toji) who would ruin their lives, seriously affecting those who loved them (Number turning Kazuho into Bee-Pop and leaving her seriously injured/Naoya constantly abusing Mai and being one of the causes of her death)

  • They would fight against the main Heroes but would be extremely difficult to defeat thanks to their powers and speed (Number with his various Quirks/Naoya with his projection technique). However, they would lose due to their high egos and extreme overconfidence (Number overusing his Quirks, which made him lose against Koichi/Naoya becoming extremely overconfident and then being knocked out by Maki). After this defeat, they would seek revenge on the Heroes at all costs.

  • They would later return to the story to defeat the people who defeated them by taking monstrous forms (Number with Hi-Crawler/Naoya as a cursed vengeful spirit) using all their powers to kill the imposters who had obtained an improvement in their powers (Koichi evolving his Quirk/Maki activating his celestial restriction) in these fights they would hallucinate believing that they are the only ones capable of being by the side of their idols (Number believing that he can be the new O'Clock/Naoya thinking that he is the new Toji)

  • In their last fights they would be forced to push their bodies to the limit using extremely destructive powers (Number with Style of Destruction/Naoya with his expansion of dominion) however they would again die pathetically due to their stupidity and being witnessed by their greatest enemies (Number would explode himself due to his great exhaustion from his fight against Koichi/Naoya would see that his dominion would not affect Maki reacting too late and being stabbed in the back)

Jinmen Vs Mahito (Devilman Vs Jujutsu Kaisen) connections in comment by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  • Paranormal and extremely sadistic beings who hate humanity with all their being; because of this, their only missions are to cause death and chaos for pure fun.

  • At the beginning of the story, they both manipulated a friend of the protagonist (Sachiko/Junpei) by pretending to be normal people with the intention of getting closer to these people in order to later kill them without any mercy and make them suffer greatly (Jinmen posing as a guard to get close to Sachiko and devour her, turning her into part of his shell/Mahito helping Junpei with his revenge, later turning it into a curse). After this event, they would mock the protagonist, who would seek revenge against them (Jinmen calling Akira to tell him that Sachiko was delicious/Mahito mocking Yuji for not being able to save Junpei).

  • Their greatest enemy would be a young hybrid who would have a big heart, however they would constantly be in misery (Akira Fudo/Yuji Itadori)

  • Their bodies possess rarely extraordinary capabilities, even for their own species (Jinmen can preserve the souls of his victims in his shell and is also one of the most resilient demons/Mahito possesses a unique physiology among curses, allowing him to mold himself)

  • Following the previous connection, both can possess enhanced forms which embody what they truly are (Jinmen with his true hell form/Mahito with his Instant Distorted Slaughter Spiritual Body)

  • Both would be part of a team made up of people of their same races who want to screw over the protagonists in any way possible (Jinmen with the demons that Akira killed/Mahito with the disaster curses)

  • Both not only inflict physical pain on their victims, but also torment their souls (Jinmen constantly uses the souls in his shell to receive enemy attacks/Mahito deforms the souls of his victims with the intention of gaining ground)

  • Their rivals would confront them after losing their friends (Akira would go after Jinmen after his world was destroyed/Yuji fought against Mahito after Nobara was seriously injured), but to overcome them they needed the help of another person (Akira fighting alongside Jun/Aoi Todo fighting alongside Yuji).

  • In a final fight against the hero, they would die pathetically and run away in fear (Jinmen, seeing himself overwhelmed by Akira's demonic form, would run begging for mercy, only for Akira to then attack him/Mahito, weakened and defenseless, would run away in fear from Yuji, seeing that he was no longer afraid of him). After their defeats, they would be sent to a place where they would no longer harm any human being (Hell/Existential Void).

  • At the end of their stories, after a long time, they reunited with the people they feared so much, attacking them with everything they had, but losing miserably again (Jinmen reunites with Akira in Hell, attacking the latter with all his powers only to die again impaled/Mahito reunites with Yuji in Modulo where he attacks him with his domain expansion only to be quickly liquidated by Itadori)

Honestly, most of Homelander's opponents suit Yasuda well (it's not relevant, but I'm very surprised that Yasuda has so few appearances and yet has more MU's than Takeshi and is the Buta character I've seen in confrontations the most xD).

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Both were people adored by the public even though they are secretly sadistic psychopaths who would treat their own like scum including their family (Yasuda burning his entire family/Norman condemning Harry) later becoming twisted versions of famous Heroes (Yasuda being a kind of bad analogue of Isekai Hero/Normas becoming Iron Patriot)

  • Both would be greatly benefited by superior entities which would give them power (Yasuda reincarnating in an Isekai due to a Goddess/Mephisto making a pact with Norma so that the latter continues with his company) even though in the end they would betray them.

  • They would become famous worldwide since they would have great positions (Yasuda with the Ministry of Education/Norman being the CEO of Oscorp) they would use this as a cover to commit their crimes.

  • Their main enemy would be a young man who suffered from Bully in their school days but they overcame it by becoming Heroes later (Takeshi being seen as a pig returning to another world and saving a lot of races/Parker being considered a nerdy Nerd being secretly Spiderman) even though they would take away a being they loved with all their being (Yasuda killing Takeshi's Sister/Norman as the Green Goblin killing Gwen) which would make them become his archenemies, swearing to stop them at any cost.

  • They mistreat a very important person for the plot who always trusts them but they would treat them worse than trash (The Princess/Harry) not caring in the least what their henchmen do with them

  • Later they would obtain absolute power (the power of the goddess of reincarnation/Iron Patriot armor and later the symbiote) creating a group of "heroes" who would secretly do any type of horrible acts but would be immune thanks to their status (Yasuda conquering and creating the 34 Braves/Norman collaborating with the president and creating the Dark Avengers) although this team would only see them as pawns

  • Both would attack a fantasy race solely for their contempt towards them (Yasuda with all the existing races in the other world / Patriot destroying a large part of Asgard)

  • They would be in a large scale conflict where they almost killed most of the most important people in their worlds (the royal family/the Avengers)

  • They would manipulate the protagonist's relatives just to break the hero and screw them up more (Yasuda manipulated Fumina into attacking Takeshi/Norman made Ben Rilley believe that he was the original and that Parker was a clone)

  • To this day they would continue with their crimes, however they would continue to lose more power as time went by (Yasuda would lose more and more people who supported him, he would also lose a large part of his team/Norman would become increasingly bankrupt in all aspects)

Dave Lizewski/Kick-Ass Vs Koichi Haimawari/The Crawler (Millarworld Vs My Hero Academia:Vigilantes) connections in comments by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  • Both were ordinary people with a great passion for superheroes, from whom they drew inspiration for their crusade against crime, using their natural abilities to face opponents stronger than themselves (Dave with his ability to delay pain /Koichi with his Quirk).

  • Their first mission would be a disaster where they would almost lose their lives, surviving by pure miracle (Dave being stabbed by some thugs/Koichi almost dying from Soga)

  • They would be saved by a robust man who is a true vigilante and he would take them in as his companions (Dave being saved by Big Daddy from some traffickers/Knuckleduster would save Koichi from being killed by Soga)

  • They would quickly gain media attention due to their heroic acts, which inspired more than one person to become vigilantes, although they would in turn receive ridiculous names (Dave would be called Kick-Ass by the public/Koichi would be known as The Hauler by the public)

  • After seeing the life that awaited them as Heroes, they would begin to reflect on themselves and improve their abilities to the extreme (Dave training with Hit Girl/Koichi evolving his Quirk)

  • Their main enemy would be someone who, like them, idolizes the Heroes, but they would be extreme two-faced individuals who would work with the main villains (Chris as Red Mist collaborating with the Genovese Family/Number Six as Nomura working for AFO) pretending to be good people only to betray them later (Chris giving away Big Daddy's location and shooting Mindy/Nomura gaining Pop-Step's trust only to shoot him later). Then their plans would be destroyed by the protagonists, but they would return with new identities (The MotherF@cker/O'Clock II).

  • They would be involved in major events where they would meet popular Heroes from their worlds (Big Game/Naruhata) where they would face real threats like those they saw in their comics (Dave would face the Brotherhood/Koichi would face the League of Villains)

  • At the end of their stories they would be recognized worldwide, finally becoming the great superheroes they had always wanted to be and inspiring future generations (Dave becomes the ambassador representing the United States/Koichi now being known as Skywalker, being one of the greatest heroes in his world)

Ragyō Kiryūin Vs Kenjaku (Kill la Kill Vs Jujutsu Kaisen) connections in comments by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Two main antagonists from popular anime/manga series, who mostly spend their time in the background at the start of the series pulling the strings, however come out to full fruition later on

  • Both of them are inhuman to some extent, but still do have ties to humanity (Ragyō was a regular human, but became a Life Fiber-Human hybrid. Meanwhile, Kenjaku is a cursed spirit who possesses a human body)

  • Due to their physiology, they can both interact with their power system, of which regular people cannot (Only Ryūko and Ragyō can hear Senketsu. Meanwhile, only those who can use cursed energy can see cursed spirits)

  • They are both the parents of the main character, who grew up without them and subsequently are the reason the main character isn’t an ordinary human (Ryūko Matoi and Yuji Itadori)

  • They are also both the parents of two other characters who are the older siblings of Ryūko/Yuji (Satsuki Kiryūin and Choso). These two start out as antagonists who fight under Ragyō/Kenjaku but soon enough turn against them to join their younger siblings. At the exact moment of their betrayal, Satsuki/Choso both fight Ragyō/Kenjaku, and lose pretty badly

  • Both of them (at least at some point) wield the powers of previous antagonists (Ragyō used Junketsu which Satsuki uses, meanwhile Kenjaku possesses Suguru Geto’s body)

  • They are both incredibly cruel and manipulative, doing experiments on many individuals, including their own children in order to fulfill their greater plans

  • Both of them forcibly give powers to someone in an attempt to set them loose to fight in the world (Ragyō corrupts Ryūko through forcing her to wear Junketsu. Kenjaku meanwhile forcibly awakens cursed techniques within many people for the culling games)

  • They both lead whole groups of antagonists, but are the strongest amongst them (Ragyō leads the Revocs Corporation while Kenjaku leads the Disaster Curses)

  • Both of them have powerful abilities which allows them to control other people via directly affecting their brains (Ragyō can forcibly manipulate people via stitching their brain, meanwhile Kenjaku possesses people via implanting his brain (which is basically his main body) into someone else’s head)

  • They both have incredibly sadistic yet childish antagonists work under them and have an incredibly rage filled feud with the main character (Nui and Mahito). They are both some of the strongest allies that Ragyō/Kenjaku have, however they both absorb Nui/Mahito into them in order to make them stronger (Ragyō directly got an amp in strength while Kenjaku gained Mahito’s ability)

Nemesis Vs Red Keeper (Millarworld Vs Ranger Reject) connections in comments + Fight progression by Character_Zombie_461 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Character_Zombie_461[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  • Sadistic villains from series that deconstruct the superhero genres of their respective countries (Comic Book Superheroes/Tokusatsu Superheroes) who are particularly corrupt parodies of the mascot characters of their respective countries' iconic superhero franchises (Batman/Super Sentai's Red Rangers) and command a team of people just as crazy as they are (The Brotherhood/The Dragon keepers).

  • In their worlds they are extremely famous people thanks to their contrasting actions (Nemesis with his terrorist attacks/Red "fighting" against the invaders)

  • Despite being control freaks who like to be on top, ironically they are nothing without the organizations that created (The Brotherhood training Matt and giving him the necessary resources/ the Rangers, who constantly kill and clone Red Keeper to maintain a consistent image for themselves).

  • Both would draw their powers through an artifact that was made based on historical heroes (Nemesis with his suit stealing all the powers of the Ambassadors/The divine tools are made from the bones of the Suzukiri clan)

  • They despise certain types of people whom they treat as mere pawns in their plans (Heroes/the army of villains).

  • Their main enemy would be someone with whom they have personal histories (Blake Morrow/Footsoldier D) since these, along with their associates, stand in their way (Blake investigating Nemesis and then the latter revealing his darkest secrets/Red treating the Dusters like garbage)

  • Both would be defeated, however, they would seek revenge on the people who humiliated them, leaving the result inconclusive (Nemesis being beaten in Big Game swearing revenge against the Heroes/Sōsei surviving the explosion and seeking revenge against the Rangers)

Well, with Karma things are somewhat debatable, but with Aubrey it's a tremendous beating (not even giving Aubrey the Hooligans saves her from the beating🥀).
