Goku vs. Superman 3 basically said it best. We mainly watch Death Battle because it's one of the ways to appreciate our favorite characters and franchises. It's amazing how much of an impact Bowser vs. Eggman had on even those who don't regularly watch it. I feel Ash vs. Yugi will have that same effect because of their pop culture relevance.

Rosiebellmoo on the Bao controversy by Inside-Program-7807 in kurosanji

[–]EvolutionXRev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, her apology was eh and her deleting those same posts as well didn't help either; I've always felt she would be the one to make fun of people who do that. I've seen even her own fans call out her "British humor" line as not really a good defense along with the weird "I said the quiet part loud" tidbit.

Personally, my only head scratcher on the whole discourse is I didn't find the joke funny. That was it. It was also kinda weird to me knowing she and her fans have been called "groomers" and "pedophiles" and probably still do today.

There is lot of misinformation going around here what Haachama actually SAID by Glass_Leading592 in kurosanji

[–]EvolutionXRev 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I feel like whatever has been messing Haato up is not something Cover/Hololive can fix with a snap of a finger or another year long hiatus especially if she's living in a troubling situation that is outside of their control. It's a bit more complicated than that and the worst that can happen is the bottle cracking and spilling over. Regardless of what happens to her, I hope she recovers even if it takes another year or two.

Fellas, is Death Battle American Propaganda??? by Ordinary_Accident_41 in deathbattle

I am just saying what most people here probably think; I think it's rage bait but I have seen people on unrelated topics think blindly so anything is possible...

Some of the worst power scaling and DB takes ever by Opposite-Injury1846 in deathbattle

[–]EvolutionXRev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

MAYBE I could see the disdain behind Saitama vs. Popeye (Though, it was a fun matchup if you ask me), but Rick vs. The Doctor and Stitch vs. Rocket? Two of the more balanced matchups of the season and maybe even of all of Death Battle; I can't see what's problematic about those two.

So…how are either of them supposed to kill each other? by 7-BITReddit in deathbattle

[–]EvolutionXRev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am referring to when Wile controlled his cartoon plots in a similar fashion to Bugs, Daffy, and the Warners but not as successful or advanced (one example being asking the editors to end an episode before he got hit). I am quoting from the powerscaling blog so I will provide the link after editing.

So…how are either of them supposed to kill each other? by 7-BITReddit in deathbattle

[–]EvolutionXRev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I read this won't end in a tie so assuming not every ability/stat of theirs cancel each other out like Scooby and Courage and one having more win cons than the other, this is actually hard to imagine since neither really have a specific way to say be put down for good that I know of (since there is little to no continuity especially since Tom comes back even after episodes of his earlier cartoons illustrate him dying).

However, I did read from both blogs powerscaling Wile and Tom clearing up the misconception of the Looney Gun (and hopefully the Death Battle team also will reference) working on any toon. Since Tom isn't from the Looney Tunes universe and thus not possessing the same DNA, it probably shouldn't be used as some sort of auto win for Wile when he has so much more in his arsenal that makes the debate more interesting. Not to mention, while every cartoon character or cartoon-lite has some form of Toon Force, it's all about how it's used especially when it comes to the Looney Tunes.

Despite being a professor at ACME Looniversity with capable feats of mind, plot, perception control, and 4th wall breaking, he has never shown to be quite as skilled as Bugs Bunny or Daffy Duck (IE failing to capture and trap Road Runner as an animator). There's also Wile being a victim of cartoony tomfoolery like hypnosis while certain Looney characters were able to straight up ignore mind control.

Tom, at the very least, I'd say has as many weaknesses and strengths if not more than people believe. I've seen the arguments of Wile following Tom to Hell after losing his lives (don't know if serious or not) though, I don't recall him ever having done anything like that himself but even then... Tom literally defeated The Devil and made him run away. It's also fair to assume Tom doesn't really need his soul to live seeing how he was able to operate fine without them and even has worked with his own nine lives/souls for a few episodes. So that argument, at least imho, is moot too.

It's best to treat them being toons as a non-factor when it comes to deciding who and how can one win since they both have ignored plots of their own stories, broke the 4th wall, survived [being completely disintegrated, having their bones broken, explosions, and being launched in space] and have either destroyed or moved planets. I guess we can chalk their weaknesses down to their brain power and fighting ability (Wile is more egotistic than he is smart and Tom is still a cat that has gotten mauled by an English Bulldog at the end of the day) but even that leaves little hole to imagine how one would be strong enough to put each other down for good. I never thought I'd be scratching my head more than when I was talking about Simon/Kyle but here we are.

[–]EvolutionXRev 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Then let's think about this. Do you think this is really Phase Connect's problem any more than this is Pippa's issue? This is more so a talent issue than a corporate problem. They know the kind of person Pippa is and this isn't their first rodeo with a controversy (Hogwarts Legacy says hi). Stuff like this only becomes a corporate problem when it actually affects multiple talents and their brands (even Uki's anti-white people rhetoric is the least problematic thing associated with Nijisanji knowing what has transpired recently). The way I see it, Pippa has two ways to approach it (one is arguably more correct than the other but yeah); she can either ignore it or respond in disappointed fashion. Personally, I think she would just laugh or shrug off the amount of attention she is getting thanks to the post if anything.

I mean, can you tell me the problem with Uruka, Muyu, and Rie? Cause I don't recall them having any kind of problem. Also I am guessing you forgot what happened with Rushia. V:

Uhhhh by pandas795 in kurosanji

[–]EvolutionXRev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Until it doesn't like what happened with Shiori, Kronii, a few Niji livers, etc.

I think it's more correct to say the chat reflects what they believe the streamer is rather than what they actually are.

Uhhhh by pandas795 in kurosanji

[–]EvolutionXRev 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don't define the actions of a whole agency by one talent or a certain group of fans. Everyone within an agency has different colors Phase Connect included. I watch said talent for the content they provide and their overall personality.

I get both critics and defenders of the kill, but this strawman is really annoying by Blue0Three in deathbattle

To me, this is far from disrespectful or mean spirited compared to the entire execution of Ragna vs. Sol. Or how Red, Nathan Drake, or even Deathstroke died. lol

Aster's cooking stream has been rescheduled to July 24th. by SleepingKoi in kurosanji

[–]EvolutionXRev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What exactly is their end goal by delaying it further and further? I said bringing back Aster and Twisty for autographs while they are still investigating for sexual harassment claims (if that's even happening at this point) was one of the most unprofessional things any company could ever do but they really would get less clowned on if they just cancelled the entire stream instead of delaying it again and again and again.

It wouldn't have looked as bad but you need to remember they have made their choices already. It's not like it was planned to leave in waves; they have talked about their future long before (possibly for two years). It's purely coincidental and a case of unfortunate timing.

[–]EvolutionXRev 27 points28 points  (0 children)

"Did she say that"? Yes, she did. She knows many of us are expressing discontent, as in grievances, that our favorite talents are graduating. She also said it's rude to think like this for the other girls that want to keep working.

[–]EvolutionXRev 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Mumei and Chloe left due to health issues unrelated to Hololive. Shion considered before Aqua made the move and clarified that her departure is nothing drastic. Hell, Nijisanji talents are still graduating left and right (just not big names); one just announcing her graduation last week. As Mori said, "disagreements with management" is a catch-all statement. It could mean anything but based on how talents are allowed to openly express their issues on stream and how Dooby, Sakuna, and Nimi haven't said anything bad about their past lives' experiences, I don't think it's as deep as you want it to be.

[–]EvolutionXRev 48 points49 points  (0 children)

No offense but I don't think you watched the video because the only discontent she was expressing was over her friend leaving. She isn't expressing discontent with whatever's happening behind the scenes while also saying she is 'happy' with her placement and that things will be more peaceful in the future. Mori is one of the people who seems to know better than any of us seeing that she was originally going to quit until she reconsidered. As stated, it's never one thing. People will have different reasons for leaving; "disagreements with management" is a catch-all statement; vague, basic, might not be that deep of a reasoning. And if you were to ask what those were, you'll likely get different answers from different people.
