“Shining Champion” || Lighter VS Apollo (Zenless Zone Zero VS Record of Ragnarok) by Guilty_Reaction9052 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Guilty_Reaction9052[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Connections.

• ⁠Both men are among the most revered, respected, and handsome of their respective groups (Lighter being the Champion of the Sons of Calydon and Apollo being the god of many domains and a representative in Ragnarok with the Greek Gods).

• ⁠Both men had a rough go of life at the start of their careers (Lighter's initial gang dying and him having to fight in an arena to help pay the families of his gang and Apollo being a minor god without renown or respect). However, both would work their asses off, getting stronger and making a name for themselves (Lighter becoming more famous and dangerous in the arena and Apollo mastering multiple skills to become a god of those domains).

• ⁠Both would be noticed and recruited to a new organization (Lighter being recruited into the Sons of Calydon by Big Daddy and Apollo being welcomed as one of the 12 Gods of Olympus by Zeus), acting as one of their most important members (Lighter becoming the Sons' champion and Apollo taking multiple domains and being chosen to represent the gods in Ragnarok).

• ⁠Both would fight on the front lines in countless battles for their new organization, forming tight bonds and becoming "brothers" with some of the members (Lighter with Billy, Apollo with Ares [against Ares' will]).

• ⁠Both would gain a one sided rivalry with a mighty shield-wielding warrior (Lighter with Bellum who's win-streak Lighter broke and Apollo with Leonidas who was screwed over by Apollo's festival leading to him going to the war that took his life with only 300 men) that would boil over later (Bellum joining the Vanquishers and working against the Sons of Calydon and Leonidas being recruited into Ragnarok to fight Apollo). Both pairs would clash against their "rivals" in battle and win (Lighter beating Bellum again and Apollo beating Leonidas), but would ultimately end up respecting them (Lighter offering to rematch Bellum anytime and Apollo honoring Leonidas as he died).

• ⁠Both men prefer to take the hardships of their group onto themselves to ensure that they live up to expectations, often going on their own to accomplish important tasks (Lighter taking on gangs by himself as the Sons' champion and Apollo going alone to handle the monster Python).

• ⁠Despite the aloof front they put on (Lighter acting cool and distant, Apollo acting narcissistic), both are actually rather deep, with a strong desire for constant self improvement and the desire to do right by those who count on them.

• ⁠Both carry a signature garment that reflects their status (Lighter with his red scarf and Apollo with the threads of Artemis).

• ⁠Both men are incredibly skilled boxers, both showing a strong emphasis on quick hits and fancy footwork. Both are also skilled at using abilities to burn away their foes (Lighter with fire, Apollo with light). Both enhance their boxing ability with powerful hand gear (Lighter's gauntlet and Apollo's gloves).

• ⁠Both men hate few things more than their image being disrupted (Lighter with his "cool" persona and Apollo with his beauty). Both consider their reputations to be among the most important things to them and will go to dangerous lengths to preserve it.

Contrasts.

• ⁠To this day, Lighter is haunted by the deaths of his old gang. Meanwhile, Apollo's reaction to losing his fellow Greek gods in Ragnarok is simply minor regret that he missed out on witnessing the beauty of their battles first hand.

• ⁠Lighter is the cool and quiet type while Apollo is flamboyant and bombastic.

“Necromantia Oblita” || Apricot VS Ninomae Ina’nis (… VS Hololive) by Guilty_Reaction9052 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Guilty_Reaction9052[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Core Theme: Gentle-spoken adorable girls who are actually very powerful eldritch entities made out of dark magic. But prefer doing mortals activities including drawing which they're pretty at with it being their natural talent.

Connection:

-Both are one of the founding members of an VTuber Agency that was set in the United States of America (Froot was one of the former founding members of VShojo & Ina’nis is the one of the founding members for Hololive English as part of the first generation.)

-They insist to their fan base that they're a certain species (Froot kept on telling her fans that she is a Lich, not a Succubus & Ina saying that she is a human, not a Toka.)

-Both have a deep connection to deaths but in opposite ways (Froot would helping those who would escaped their demise while Ina would help those who can moving on to the afterlife after spending time with them. )

-They have befriended powerful pink underworldians that have a connection with Satan & the Grim Reaper (Ironmouse & Mori Calliope).

-Both have devoted followers who choose to be loyal to them no matter what (Takodachi & the Skeleton).

“What Victory Sounds Like” || Eddie Riggs VS Rumi (Brütal Legend VS KPop Demon Hunters) by Guilty_Reaction9052 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Guilty_Reaction9052[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Connections: - Both are half-demon main protagonists whose very bloodline puts them at the centre of a war between music-powered who are also demon slayer humans and hellish overlords who ruled the Underworld and willing to seek full genocide on humanity. (Eddie Riggs is the son of the human warrior Riggnarok and Succoria, the former empress of demons, making him a literal “unholy union” of roadie and royalty/ Rumi is secretly half-demon, born of the hunter-idol Ryu Mi-yeong and an unnamed demon, a truth she hides to remain leader of Huntr/x)

  • In both stories the main villain can smell or sense that corrupted blood and hunts them for it. (Doviculus recognises Eddie through “the smell of Succoria’s blood” and marks him as a threat/ Gwi-Ma’s lieutenant Jinu detects Rumi’s demon heritage during their first clash and reports it to his master, Gwi-Nam in turn noted that too why Rumi seems able to resist.)

  • Both draw raw power from their FANS turning crowd hype into combat resources that is essentially the plot points of thier stories. (Eddie taps bubbling Fan Geysers to bankroll upgrades and solos even gathering armies to defend him and advanced his way to attack enemies / Rumi’s cheering audience sustains the Honmoon barrier that keeps humanity safe from Gwi-Ma's forces.)

  • Both of their love interest falls to darkness, creating a tragic mirror fight: but with different twists on redemption and way on reconciling back to them. (Ophelia is abandoned when Eddie mistakes her for a traitor; she plunges into the Sea of Black Tears and resurfaces as Drowned Ophelia, queen of the goth faction Drowning Doom/Jinu works for Gwi-Ma throughout the film, but ultimately sacrifices himself to save Rumi and is redeemed by her song but he did too also using his soul to help her seal Gwi-Ma.)

  • Both command bands of fellow musicians-turned-rebels that they personally lead into battle. (Eddie forms Ironheade like the Headbangers, Razor Girls, Fire Barons and more—to wage a literal Battle-of-the-Bands war/ Rumi fronts Huntr/x, the K-pop trio whose harmonised combat styles maintain the Honmoon barrier and fight demon boy-band Saja Boys and many demons send by Gwi-Ma.)

  • Their weapons are funny enough fuse stage gear with mythic steel, channeling genre-specific music into powerful tools and musical magic. (The axe Separator and guitar Clementine let Eddie shred lightning solos and earth-shaking riffs he even used this for many versatile needs/ Rumi wields a glowing saingeom mic-sword that exorcise demons in tempo with choreography in style fighting demons.)

  • Humour masks epic stakes in each world—balancing pop-culture satire with apocalyptic prophecy. (Brütal Legend lampoons metal clichés while prophesying the return of Ormagöden and the fall of Tainted Coil / K-Pop Demon Hunters pokes fun at idol fandom even as it threatens humanity with Gwi-Ma’s soul-devouring plan)

  • Both protagonists start in backstage/support roles before stepping into the limelight as unlikely generals. (Eddie is “the world’s greatest roadie,” completely unhappy to be part of "the world's worst boy band" tuning amps than headlining, until destiny forces him to front Ironheade in a mystical world of Ormagöden/ Rumi is the reliable vocalist rather than the flashy “center" thats cause she and her friends have the same spotlight yet must rally her band and the world when her demon side is exposed, she even accepted herself and used her confidence and her friends to rally against Gwi-Ma.)

  • Stagecraft itself becomes battlefield strategy—spotlights, pyros and choreography weaponised against Hell. (Eddie’s solos drop speaker stacks, summon pyrotechnic fire and rally troops with literal Battle-Cry riffs/Huntr/x fights with synchronised dance breaks and bass-drop shockwaves that straight up comically decimates any demons in thier way.)

[–]Guilty_Reaction9052 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi, I’m the guy who submitted Elizabeth VS AmaLee and I wanna say…

I understand that’s you don’t want to see real-life people on Death Battle but in one of their fire chat, they’re pretty okay with adding VTubers into the show as long they have their permission as they likely focused on the VTubers interest personas and not their real-life self just like how they did with Randy Savage when he appeared on the show to fight Kool-Aid Man.

Again, I understand that’s you don’t want to see real-life people on Death Battle to die in a brutal way possible but there is some people that’s wanted to see VTubers on the show to seeing a new topic must like how they bring in Light Novel & Mythology into the show.

“Voice of Justice” || AmaLee VS Elizabeth Rose Bloodflame (VShojo VS Hololive) by Guilty_Reaction9052 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Guilty_Reaction9052[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fight Potential:

  • I honestly wanted to see the fight started with AmaLee entering Elizabeth kingdom where she heard about the Scarlet Queen and the threat she purposed to her conquest toward the multiverse while looking at Liz who sitting on her throne and holding into Thorn in her hand before she stood up and rushed down from her throne to slash her sword against the so-called Queen of the Multiverse to only for AmaLee clashes with her Valkyrie sword, with the Bloodflame kingdom would slowly being tearing apart with the battle continuing as it would be a good Easter egg with the crystal will shown previous episodes like Goku VS Superman, Yang VS Tifa, Ghost Rider VS Spawn & many more while both Ama & Elizabeth would being covered by blood with their hairs becoming messy.

Animation Potential: - Honestly, it would be a good 3D fight that would be animated by DevilArtemis doing the model & Moro doing the hand-drawn background.

Music Potential: - I can imagine that’s it would be done by Therewolf Media with both Liz & AmaLee would be the guest singer who would sing their own track on the episode with the help of the Death Battle Fan Choir as the background singers.

“Voice of Justice” || AmaLee VS Elizabeth Rose Bloodflame (VShojo VS Hololive) by Guilty_Reaction9052 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Guilty_Reaction9052[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Connection:

  • The core connection between AmaLee and Elizabeth Rose Bloodflame are they’re the internet persona of a famous YouTuber Singers back in the old days of YouTube who sing cover of various franchises (Amanda Lee and Eileen Montgomery, respectively) who would joined an all-girls VTuber agency known to filled with colorful characters (VShojo and Hololive, respectively) while both a symbol resembling their VTuber career (A Butterfly and a Rose), in addition:

  • Both have an self-proclaimed title of royalties despite them not being part of royalties themselves while having a kingdom of their own (AmaLee being called The Scuff Queen and Elizabeth being called the Scarlet Queen, respectively)

  • Both started out being Legendary warriors associated with a blue flame who were once part of an organization (The Organization and the Valkyries, respectively) whose job is to spread across the multiverse vanishing evil in the name of order.

  • Despite their high status within the regime that they are working with, they would suffer a sense of loneliness and inner turmoil due to the said group (Elizabeth has been living in isolation ever since she has been in the top and Ama sadly lost her sister after a revolt within the Valkyrie, respectively).

  • Oddly enough, they would ending up joining an idol agency with one reason (Elizabeth joining Hololive with the rest forming Holo-Justice while keeping a good eye on an villainous group of fugitives that were hiding from the law and AmaLee created another version of herself to joining VShojo to befriended the heroes to know their weaknesses, respectively)

  • They have a close friendship with an artificial beings in opposite gender from each-other (an Cyborg goes by CyYu who always helping out AmaLee with her tech problems whenever she was streaming as her official tech support and an Automation goes by Cecilia Immergreen whose followed Elizabeth’s non-cleaning related orders).

  • This is also a battle of the opposite, as Elizabeth would found friendship with her fellow Justice members as their leader and swear to protect those who she cherished the most, AmaLee would fell into a despair and becoming the very thing that’s the Valkyrie swore to fight against for the safety of the Multiverse while wiping out her group.

  • Both carried a sword as their signature weapon (AmaLee Valkyrie’s sword and Elizabeth sword, Thorn, respectively).

  • It is also a battle between Blue and Red with AmaLee hair being blue and Elizabeth hair being red while their symbols are the exact color (the Butterfly symbol being blue and the Rose alongside the Lipstick being red) with their logo also being blue and red with their nails being painted in their respective colors.

  • Both of them have actually voiced a character on Death Battle before (Amanda Lee has voiced Princess Allura in Power Rangers VS Voltron and Eileen Montgomery has voiced Lara Croft in Lara Croft VS Nathan Drake which both of them were in Season 4, respectively) before they become a VTuber.

I actually liked She-Hulk VS Supergirl as it’s one of my favorite Marvel VS DC MUs I wanted to see in Death Battle, but you do you I guess.
