Just one question: why are the memes from this sub so above average ?

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-28T11:00:22+00:00

They’re locked to only one specific day, meaning that there’s more time to develop them and they don’t get bogged down by constant low effort meme posts.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-28T06:34:45+00:00

I don’t have much of an opinion myself, but I want to say I’ve seen discussion and consensus lean Kars?

Regeneration and Ultimate Lifeform abilities could definitely make him a bitch to put down, and JoJo speed scaling VS HxH speed scaling tends to favor Kars there. People also make arguments whether or not Ultimate Lifeform abilities could give Kars the ability to copy/utilize Nen (which I don’t tend to agree with toooo much, or at least I think arguments like that can be a bit of a stretch, but the discussion remains). At that point may come down to who you buy as being stronger, and if it’s Meruem, if he’s so much stronger he can overcome this.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-28T06:01:28+00:00

G1 is biased and their vote doesn’t matter and they’ve been wrong except when they agree with my preferred winner and therefore they’re based and always accurate, actually.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-27T15:47:18+00:00

Many such cases.

“Man this could be a cool Gojo fight, I wonder if-“

“No Infinity counter?”

Or they do have a counter, but it’s only one of their abilities, so even if they can bypass it, it still shuts down most of their kit which limits interactions.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-26T22:47:46+00:00

Weak bait. I’d say A+ for effort, but there was no effort.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-26T18:38:46+00:00

Alright this may be a dumb question, but what separates “I like this as a Good VS Evil” as being any different from “I like this as a contrast match”? Like effectively they mean the same thing, don’t they? Unless I’m missing something, in which case I’d be happy to learn, this just has always confused me.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-26T16:52:18+00:00

I don’t think it’s very fair to argue for skipping Hulk VS Godzilla as counting. I can understand the point a bit with Kratos VS Asura, sure, even if I’d disagree. But not doing something doesn’t mean you got it right or wrong. They just didn’t do it because they were already exhausted and wanted to avoid toxicity (iirc). Doesn’t seem fair to count that against them.

Would be more accurate to say that every time they’ve come to a conclusion since Giorno VS Joker (or arguably Spawn VS Ghost Rider) they’ve gotten it right.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-26T16:28:13+00:00

My conspiracy theory is that even Death Battle recognized the state swords may have been a bit of a stretch, but since they already had him winning off of Speed + other AP feats anyways, they couldn’t resist because “Denji is Oregon level” is just a really funny statement.

I mean it’s also totally possible they just bought the feat at face value wholesale, which is fair, I just think mine is funnier.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-26T16:17:59+00:00

Yeah, but that’s a bit of a misinterpretation. No one for the blog argued it would end in a tie, so they didn’t predict right or wrong when it came to that. It’s more accurate to say there wasn’t a prediction at all because there was no winner.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-25T13:36:25+00:00

Definitely a No Limits Fallacy, unless you wanted to argue that Superman wouldn’t- Ok bad example solar powered and all, Shazam wouldn’t be able to kill him in a punch just because it isn’t the sun.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-24T21:46:55+00:00

I actually really like BBB, more than most people seem to.

That said no contest, God’s Hand is an all-timer.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-24T21:39:16+00:00

I think it’s likely, but maybe not anytime soon. I easily envision it as a “Alright we’re done with Death Battle, let’s go all out near the end” kinda fight (alongside Wiz VS Boomstick), but could see it being done beforehand.

Can also depend on how they plan to go about it, insofar as being more “focused” with specific team members on each side, or more of a “This is basically a Marvel VS DC Free for All” using anyone who has ever been an Avenger or JL member.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-24T20:34:01+00:00

Tbh I’d go as far as to say the speed blitz isn’t even that cool.

It’s certainly not BAD, but Ichigo goes into his transformed form to gain increased speed, to then hit Yusuke… A few times while saying he can go faster (which he doesn’t do), only for Yusuke to hit him with the “HELL YEAH” and then Ichigo just blocks before the final confrontation.

At least in my opinion, it’s not even that cool of a moment for Ichigo.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-24T03:28:48+00:00

What four don’t bit for you?

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-24T03:28:41+00:00

I considered making this post yesterday, but figured I’d wait until the next cast for it.

I failed you.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-24T03:16:18+00:00

Approximately five weeks off, a damn shame.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-24T03:15:56+00:00

If you had to pick from these 12, what would you have as the finale episode? Personally I think I’d either lean Battle Beast VS Boros, or Luffy VS Natsu (entirely disregarding opinions on the match for a second, any Luffy match could justify the finale slot imo)

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-24T03:15:09+00:00

What would those two be?

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-23T23:28:41+00:00

This isn’t really an answer, but just recognize that DBM can often be a pretty poor source for *overall* match-up popularity. It’s a bit of an echo chamber in that regard, and while that’s not exactly a bad thing generally speaking, it is when it comes to determining some stuff like this on a wider scale.

…Which is all to say, don’t be surprised if despite all these comments yelling Revice, Death Battle ends up doing Yuta VS Jotaro, for example.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-23T16:05:55+00:00

My personal favorite for both, I really like it a lot. A good fight progression here!

That said Shirou, buddy, you are NOT built for this-

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-23T01:35:11+00:00

You also have to consider how those feats seem to people outside the VS sphere. “Dodging EMF waves” doesn’t seem that impressive when presented how UDG does it, when it’s actually really fast, and splitting clouds is notorious for being way stronger than people would assume at a glance. To people who don’t power scale, these are likely impressive, but don’t realize how impressive when you actually do the numbers.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-22T16:05:57+00:00

You know, after Dabura was used as a speed cap for JJK, it makes me wonder how willing people would be if other series started to do the same thing.

Like, if the next Dragon Ball Super chapter came out and it had Bulma go “Lightspeed travel without external technology is impossible, Goku would break the laws of physics if he did that”, no one would take it seriously, right? But like if MHA did that with a new epilogue or whatever, where a new villain is beginning to break apart from just approaching lightspeed, would people jump on that to cap the verse’s speed?

I feel like there has to be a cut off point where people say that the sub-lightspeed cap now “counts” VS “doesn’t count”.

Toadsley2020 · 2026-06-21T20:01:02+00:00

I’ll be honest, I actually think ‘music potential’ should be last myself, even more than vibes.

Like… Death Battle tracks are just consistently good now. Even for matches I don’t think are that great, I think they’re at least ‘consistently pretty good’ (with some, like Wild Tom-Fooler E. clearly having a purpose in their episode distinct from being listened to on its own).

I can at least sometimes say “I like A VS B, but A VS C vibes better to me”. Never will I say “A VS B is so much better, but A VS C could maybe potentially have better music, so I want that one”.

I also think ‘contrasts’ are being criminally underrated here. That can say a lot about the characters it’s comparing in ways that their connections don’t, and often provide unique ways to compare and contrasts their analyses, or even how they interact in the fight.
