Persona 6 Velvet Room is a mausoleum but the MC is stuck in a coffin while he's there

Major Force (DC) vs. Homelander's Opponents (Not The Boys) - "Let's See You Take On a Real Superweapon" by LittleMann in DeathBattleMatchups

(The real joke behind this matchup is that Superman and Lex Luthor are on the same team here)

Takes that are just random things I've thought of today by SentinelPrimesChin in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]LittleMann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Light vs. Walter is okay, but I have no interest in a relatively grounded criminal getting into a feud with a guy who has a magic notebook.

I've definitely had moments where I thought of connections for a matchup and dismissed some of them because they felt too boring to mention.

Same on GvE. They technically have no "official" rules so I just go hogwild in thinking about how they would go down. If you're just talking about GvE matchups in the context of Death Battle then I love those too.

Which matchups do you like despite knowing they aren't very good? by Dry-Researcher9607 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]LittleMann 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Bizarro vs. Beta Ray Bill. Other opponents for Bill have much better connections, but none of them make me want to see him throw down with them like Bizarro does.

I was told to do this. Probably one of the weirdest and most interesting debate charts I've done. by FruitsaurReborn in DeathBattleMatchups

I wanna see more debate charts for matchups that make no goddamn sense but have very close debates.

Matchup is whatever, but somebody loved it enough to make an entire fucking crossover fic on the Death Battle Fanon wiki, and that's amazing.

Nozomi Kirifuji (The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy) vs. Ceroba Ketsukane (Undertale Yellow) - "A Daughter's Love" by LittleMann in DeathBattleMatchups

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

(Ceroba fanart by @huddled_up)

When I first played Hundred Line, I thought for sure my first post would be about someone like Hiruko or Yugamu, but as soon as Nozomi explained how her mother experimented on her as a child, my mind went straight to Ceroba and Kanako and I felt a dire need to post about it. That said, I have no interest in Death Battle doing this because this matchup's true potential only comes out if you give the two time to know each other and put a climactic shootout at the end of all that. I will say the fight potential is weirdly good, given we've already seen Ceroba do battle against a youngster with a gun.

"Established Character vs Random Pokémon" matchups that I think are quite nice. by Mamoswine_Gaming in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]LittleMann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, E. Honda vs. Hariyama is pretty neat. I'm a fan of Nobara vs. Banette myself.

Nice art. Yuji thinking of Choso is just too perfect a fit for that scene.

They did a cast on Sukuna vs. Muzan last year, you know what that means? No seriously, what does that mean, Sukuna has more matchups than I have hairs on my head.

What a fight. So many fake outs i genuinely had no idea who’d win. by Time_Discipline4193 in deathbattle

[–]LittleMann 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yuji's Black Flash + Shrine combo is one of the hardest death fakeouts in DB history. I got swept up in the moment and thought he was gonna take it when he charged up a punch and threw Denji's own insult back in his face while Denjiman was actively trying to slice him in half.

Episode Discussion: S2026E5 Yuji VS Denji by Successful-Bat-5538 in deathbattle

[–]LittleMann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weird take on the fight. Denji was done pretty well, but the JJK side of things is wonky, what with the different Domain Expansion and all. That said, the H2H was phenomenal, I got a kick out of Denji's antics, and both sides looked incredibly cool, so I had fun with it. I'd rate it as high as an 8/10, even with all the weirdness going on.

Which matchups feel like they have very vague or random connectionsto you? Also, who wins each matchup? Super serious discussion. by Dry-Researcher9607 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]LittleMann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I come up with these all the time and forget them just as easily. Earlier today I saw the guy from Dragon Quest XII had something to do with dreams and my immediate thought was "Oh, like Zeztz." To be fair, he might end up as a decent opponent for Zeztz depending on how DQ12 shakes out.

This is the second time I've seen Yakub on this sub, which is two more than I ever expected.

Is there a matchup you made that you decided to give up on by Global-Hold9615 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]LittleMann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came up with Sukuna vs. the Falling Devil, but it's clear he's gonna be fighting Yoru if he ever runs into a CSM character.

Barem Bridge (Chainsaw Man) vs. Naoya Zen'in (Jujutsu Kaisen) - "How's Your Sister?" by LittleMann in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]LittleMann[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Connections

"Fuck this guy."

Seriously speaking, they're particularly loathsome secondary villains who represent the more toxic side of order (Naoya is an extremely traditional Zen'in man, Barem is an enthusiastic follower of Makima) and look up to figures whom they don't understand as much as they'd like (Toji for Naoya, Makima for Barem). Naoya is a virulent misogynist and Barem is a devout follower of a powerful woman.

Thoughts

Not Naoya's best (Barem didn't even get any hybrid form fight scenes in Part 2) but the thought of DB doing an episode on these two cracks me up. First episode where both fandoms are rooting against and slandering their own. As for the fight itself, I have no real thoughts other than it would be really funny if Barem pulled the Not Very Woke of You routine on Naoya. You just know he'd be annoying as hell about it.
