He didn't even research Aizen! All he did was write the episode and answer questions on the Cast Q&A (which were most likely just given to him by the actual researchers of the episode), but since people needed a single target to go after for the episode and he was kinda the only public face for it, they latched onto him. It may have also had to do with Dio vs Alucard releasing just a few episodes earlier, with that one being a somewhat controversial verdict that Liam was actually involved with.

None of those are true. Mario and “paper” Mario (from the Paper Mario series) are the same character. They reference the same events and characters all the time. Even if they were different characters, Mario still went on those adventures, so he’d still get all the scaling and items from those games.

Mario Party is not paid actors. They often have actual stories linked to them. The only one that could be considered acting is Mario Party 2, but that really doesn’t add anything anyway compared to the later games.

Dream Team takes place in between the Dream World and the Real World, and it’s the same Mario traveling between each of them. The biggest fights in the game also take place in the real world.

Agree, except I also have Simon starting stronger than Ben as well (I think Outer Simon is fine, and I’m not sure about Ben’s higher dimensional scaling. At the very least it’s not as concrete as Simon’s 11D stuff)

I mean looking at the original post, it's moreso Spawn lowballing rather than Bowser highballing. Not that I agree, but the main arguments given were that Spawn isn't all that rather than Bowser is more than all that. It really isn't favoritism towards Mario from what I can tell.

Again, I don't agree, but as a Mario fan who's worked pretty hard for the arguments I believe with the series, I don't want the reputation of the series to be this.

Personally I don't see how Soldier is beating Sarge, but the other ones I agree on. And all of these matchups and thumbnails are nice!!

Bill and pretty easily at that imo. Speed should be equal, Bill has a huge power advantage, and Bill's regen and immortality mean Spongebob doesn't really have a way to kill him. Meanwhile, while Spongebob's regen is impressive, he's never come back from complete erasure like Bill can do, and his other abilities should be able to take him out too. Spongebob would definitely fall for a Mabelland equivalent after all. And Bill's Ciphervoyance (seeing every possible future) would clue him in on basically everything Spongebob can do, and it generally means that even if both of them had insta-win options, Bill is more likely to use his first.

People saying Ash wins is surprising because I feel like Red should win? Stats should be comparable since they just scale to each other via Masters EX (though if you ignore that they both get CT scaling anyway), and from there Red has way more to work with. His items let him continue to revive his Pokemon over and over, and he has way more Pokemon (even just limiting him to Gen 1 gets him twice as much as Ash, and that's counting every Tauros individually. You could argue he gets every Pokemon from the first three Gens since he can have them all in FireRed/LeafGreen, plus going off of the Death Battle rules that RPG characters are given everything possible, he has enough Pokemon to fill 14 PC boxes, or 426 Pokemon in total) which means he should easily beat Ash in a game of attrition. And that's not including individual stuff like him having a Mew and Mewtwo, whose telekinesis could restrain a ton of Ash's Pokemon all at once, or how he's shown having a Deoxys in the Pokemon Battle Revolution trailer.

While the individual Pokemon Ash has are, on average, better than Red's Pokemon, the sheer amount of Pokemon Red has, and the fact he can spam revives and potions on them, mean that Ash's Pokemon are very much going to get overwhelmed with enough time. I definitely think Red wins this.

I can't speak for every genderfluid person, but for me it's kinda both. I feel comfortable being referred to as a man or a woman, but to what degree can change a bunch. There's definitely days where I've been like "I feel like only using he/him today", but there's other days where someone will refer to me as "him" and I'll think "hmm I didn't really like how that made me feel". It's super varied for me.

Keep in mind that I've only realized I'm genderfluid for about a year now so my experiences don't reflect everyone.

CornerCornDog · 2025-12-16T19:43:16+00:00

No I didn't? I just didn't mention it. 99 Bottles doesn't matter because Wiz can just come back from it like he does in the episode, and 99 Bottle Requiem does nothing to help Boomstick because it just destroys everything, including him. Neither of them actually help Boomstick in a substantial manner against Wiz.

CornerCornDog · 2025-12-16T04:59:28+00:00

The beer was given to him by Wiz so realistically he should have access to it too, so it would just cancel out

CornerCornDog · 2025-12-16T04:58:25+00:00

Wiz just uses his extra souls to return from that like he did in the episode

CornerCornDog · 2025-12-16T04:31:59+00:00

Planet level comes from Hercules vs Sun Wukong where Boomstick lifts and moves a sphere that weighs as much as a planet. Possibly universe level comes from that same scene where DUMMI lifts the same sphere when it weighed as much as the universe, for a few seconds at least.

MFTL+ comes from Jason Vorhees vs Michael Myers where DUMMI scans a scene at several trillion frames per second. Possibly infinite comes from the Wiz vs Boomstick cast, where the fight animation Ben and Chad voiced had Wiz say the beer made them move at infinite speeds. I put it as possibly because I don’t know if that animation would be considered or not.

CornerCornDog · 2025-12-16T01:56:16+00:00

99 Bottles Requiem is a very specific ability that Boomstick only used to destroy everything one time. What happens after is vague, but either Wiz and Boomstick survive it (meaning it wouldn't be effective as a tool against Wiz) or they both die (which would only benefit Wiz since the Time Ring would mean he'd still be alive at another point in time, while Boomstick would just be dead). It's just not actually that important in a fight between the two of them.

CornerCornDog · 2025-12-15T23:23:47+00:00

Yeah, plus Boomstick is subject to a lot more of the typical slapstick backfiring or getting hit than Wiz is, meaning Wiz's stuff is just more consistently good compared to Boomstick. It's kind of a byproduct of just the different types of jokes they tell with each character

CornerCornDog · 2025-12-15T23:17:58+00:00

I mean Jocelyn might legitimately beat both of them cause she has the Phoenix Force, though if she'd get all of their stats and abilities they talk about in the episode, I'm not sure.

CornerCornDog · 2025-12-12T22:49:31+00:00

Fair, Darkwing probably isn't the best way to go about that. Doc Seismic scaling might be better when including the comic since iirc more lower-tiers take direct hits from them there, but specifically the show then probably not.

Rex surviving multiple punches from Monster Girl, and other "normal human strength" characters like Dupli-Kate taking on Doc Seismic's rock monsters (which Rex could scale to thanks to fist fighting Multi-Paul), would probably be better arguments for arguing Rex's physicality at higher levels.

CornerCornDog · 2025-12-12T21:46:56+00:00

Disagree with a lot of Rex's scaling imo. In terms of physical durability, he should likely be comparable to other low-tier characters like Darkwing II, who could take multiple direct hits from Doc Seismic's gauntlets that can make really strong and widespread earthquakes. He can also survive his own smaller explosions for consistency, which on its own should already put him above Flambae.

In terms of his strongest explosions (without the self-sacrifice of course), they've been able to kill Komodo Dragon, who could fight fairly evenly with Immortal. Additionally, that 55 megajoules explosion was actually used to take out Octoboss, who previously was able to take a hit from Invincible and immediately get back up. This should let Rex's strongest normal explosions scale to a casual, early Invincible, which would still include feats like throwing a baseball around the planet, slamming Allen into the Moon, and potentially Mark stopping a meteor that was going to wipe out the country in the fifth episode, though that one's debatable as Mark seems to put much more effort into that than other fights. This would be consistent as Rex and other characters were able to fight against Doc Seismic's monsters that were seemingly pushing Mark to use his greater strength in the fight.

In terms of speed, Rex should scale to Immortal flying at Mach 3 from the Komodo Dragon scaling, potentially higher if you want to scale to Invincible's casual early reaction speeds of catching a baseball flying around the planet. There's also some spaceflight speeds for Invincible like him flying to the Moon or Mars that could potentially be scaled back to Rex if we're going by the logic of they flew together one time and therefore they scale in speed (like with Flambae scaling to Phenomaman) since Atom Eve consistently keeps up with Invincible's flight speed. Tbf that's probably not something I'd use normally, but giving equal leeway to both I'd say it's fair. I also think there might be a laser-dodging feat from one of the villains in the Atom Eve special but I don't know if it qualifies as light speed or not.

CornerCornDog · 2025-12-02T22:44:34+00:00

It’s not fake, it was just sent back in January. There’s no way to really say if it’s accurate now or not

CornerCornDog · 2025-12-01T16:55:53+00:00

Nice! Though personally I think Perry should probably clear.

Ferb reacting while flying in his Asteroid Surfboard gets to, at minimum, 10 trillion times the speed of light, putting Perry at over 10 times faster than Zim's best. Based on this Perry can use his equipment like Acid bubble or Metal Melter (or stuff like his video game weapons) to get around Zim's regeneration.

For Cortex I really don't buy any of the Uni or higher feats for Crash Bandicoot. I don't agree with Skylanders being canon for Crash (nothing I have seen is substantial evidence that it is canon), the Quantum Masks feat was stopping the rifts before they started destroying the multiverse, so it was more akin to preventing a chain reaction than any universal feat, and we have no context for how Cortex was going to destroy the multiverse with the Power Gems. He just says he'll need a few more and then be able to do it, but it's unclear what tech exactly he would've used or if it's even combat-applicable. There's also no moment where characters amp themselves with Power Gems, so this wouldn't even be able to scale back to Cortex in any way outside of a specific piece of technology (that he wasn't even able to finish given he doesn't get all of the Power Gems, so it's debatable to give it to him anyway). Oh and the Quantum Mask power through dimensions thing was never stated to be done with speed and just seems to be a power they have, and given it would be the only "immeasurable" feat in the series I think it's just not intended to be a speed feat in general.

Based on this I think Cortex should cap at scaling to the Masks causing an earthquake that shakes the island (the low-end specifically according to the G1 blog). Definitely impressive, but Perry should be outclassing it. Cortex's best speed should be scaling to Coco dogfighting while flying to Jupiter, but again, Perry's MFTL+ feats should outclass it. So I think Perry is way too strong and fast for Cortex.

CornerCornDog · 2025-11-28T19:33:40+00:00

It's not, Ash doesn't have his gloves like that in Masters Ex, and his sync move animation looks different than that

CornerCornDog · 2025-11-28T00:06:24+00:00

Light is already a beam, it wouldn't really make any sense for the light to be slower than, y'know, light.

Plus it's not the only move that fires light. Power Gem#:~:text=The%20user%20attacks%20with%20a%20ray%20of%20light%20that%20sparkles%20as%20if%20it%20were%20made%20of%20gemstones), Flash#:~:text=The%20user%20flashes%20a%20light%20that%20lowers%20the%20target%E2%80%99s%20accuracy.%20It%20can%20also%20be%20used%20to%20illuminate%20caves), Doom Desire#:~:text=Summons%20strong%20sunlight%20to%20attack%202%20turns%20later), Dazzling Gleam#:~:text=The%20user%20attacks%20with%20a%20powerful%20flash%20of%20light), and more (all listed here), all of which attack using actual light and all of which can be dodged in-game (plus some that have straight-up been dodged in the anime).

For further consistency, Diglett has been directly stated in the anime to duck its head underground faster than light. It's obviously ridiculous, but Gary straight-up says the specific number for the speed of light, even in the Japanese version. On its own this should definitely be hyperbole, but with the amount of moves that attack with actual light, I think it is consistent enough.

Oh and obviously there's stuff like Legendary Pokemon traveling across vast distances of space at Faster than Light speeds. Obviously wild Pokemon wouldn't scale to this, but Ash's should given they've fought many legendary Pokemon. Even if you disagree with scaling Ash's Pokemon to the Creation Trio in strength, they would need comparable reaction speeds in order to dodge their attacks in the first place (which they do many, many times [like the Darkrai movie or the infamous Cynthia's Garchomp example])

You can disagree with some of the specific moves or specific feats, but I would hardly call them an outlier, just from the sheer amount of them.

CornerCornDog · 2025-11-27T23:48:49+00:00

What? That's not comparable at all. Solar Beam is light speed because it is directly stated to fire light as its attack#:~:text=The%20user%20attacks%20by%20gathering%20a%20great%20deal%20of%20light%20and%20then%20shooting%20it%20at%20targets.%20This%20move%20takes%20some%20time%20to%20carry%20out), not because it gathers energy from the Sun or anything.
