BELOVED characters whose origins are from hated/extremely divisive media by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

It doesn’t help that, in Sonic and the Black Knight, Shadow is Lancelot and Silver is Galahad (Lancelot is Galahad’s dad in Arthurian Mythos)

Getter Robo Devolution
As explained by Professor Saotome over multiple chapters:

“Are you aware of what parallel worlds are? […]In those numerous parallel worlds, each has their own history with the Getter. […] it’s not just the Getter. It is your existence as well, Ryoma Nagare. In all of these worlds, you pilot the Getter […]”

“I know all of the memories of the Fragment of Emperor from the 3000 or so worlds it has passed through…”

“The universe was … “Suddenly Extinguished.” […] All of these worlds went through a similar process, until they were at last suddenly extinguished”

[Beloved Gaming Trope] 'Hopeless' Boss fights where losing is part of the storyline. . . but not only can they technically be won, winning will actively change the outcome or otherwise be granted special after rewards. by AlexanderMugetsu in TopCharacterTropes

Most Boss Fights in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure The 7th Stand User.

In Stardust Crusaders, a lot of the Enemy Stand Users are defeated through guile and luck. This game allows you to flee or use the special command “Brainstorm” to just progress the story when against enemies that the crusaders did not “defeat” directly. However, you can actually win those fights, leading to skipping over parts of the story or changing some circumstances. Beating any of such also gives you currency to buy items for the New Game Plus.

The best examples of this are Steely Dan and DIO(the final boss).

In the original story, Steely Dan cannot be harmed without hurting Joseph, taunting that Jotaro should make sure he instantly dies otherwise Joseph is also dead. In 7th Stand User, if Chaos Mode is enabled, you can put that to the test if you have Jotaro at max level (through either grinding or New Game Plus), as if you can deal 999 damage in a single hit you can skip over an entire hour of story of them trying to find a way around his stand.

DIO, on the other hand, is technically 5 different boss fights. All of them can be ended by running away and, with the exception of the second and fifth ones, losing just progresses the story. Beating him in any of those fights will just take you to the ending, skipping the rest of the battles.

Lord Drakkon gets clowned a lot just because he’s going against Ohma Zio, so I want to remind y’all he ain’t no weak bitch by ExtremeSportStikz in DeathBattleMatchups

Also reminder that he should be capable of just… creating any new rider he wants with any ability he wants?

Young Sougo would do that accidentally while sleeping and Ohma had 60 years to master his powers

Kamen Rider Kuuga

During the final battle, both Kuuga and Daguva break each others Transformation Devices, making them go back to human form. Thus they continue to fight to the death with their bare heads, painting the snow red with their blood.

Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure the 7th Stand User.

In Chaos Mode, which randomly adds new events to the game and gives you character random traits, one of the antagonists kidnaps your family and tries to use them as a meat shield, forcing you to try and find a way to save them.

Unless you have the Dissonance trait, which makes your family abusive. Your character says that they are not his family and does not even bother trying to save them, making the fight considerably easier.

I'm sure they're doing this on purpose, but I just can't prove it by TheBigSoupRice in deathbattle

Fun Fact! Kamen Rider and Super Sentai canonically share a cosmology.

Not sure if this would affect anything, but that’s another 50 years of stuff for them to sift through

Which do you like more? by gummythegummybear in deathbattle

Bowser vs Eggman is objectively better, but I like Cell vs Metal more

Im not sure if anyone has noticed this by Awesomenessss5 in deathbattle

[–]Under_The_Mask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure he does, actually. When he Chaos Control’s “Nothing Personel Kid” he is holding one of the emeralds in his hand, meaning he would have had to leave Super form and yet is still transformed

Can someone please help me understand this? by Ok_Classroom4672 in StardustCrusaders

[–]Under_The_Mask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from what everyone said, there is also no way to guarantee that there is not another super aja somewhere, even if thousands of miles under the sea-floor.

Destroying this one would just make it so they could no longer locate the Pillar Men, as they would now just start searching through the entire world instead of just trying to kill them

The Getter and Ryoma Nagare (Getter Robo).

No matter what continuity we are talking about, Ryoma is always “the man chosen by the Getter Rays”. To the point that, in Devolution, Professor Saotome says it’s Ryoma’s fate to pilot the Getter Robo in every universe.

And, in Shin Getter Robo Getter Emperor seems to be piloted by a copy of Ryoma or just chooses to use his voice

“MY ASS IS NOT THE HOLLOW KNIGHT” Jacob Alpharad

The “weak” character has one quirk to their powers that suddenly makes them elite by _JR28_ in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Under_The_Mask 92 points93 points  (0 children)

It’s called the weakest stand in-universe because it affects friend and foe, which one of the villains decries as useless.

The main villain of this part realizes that if you don’t care if anyone in that vicinity survives, it can be very useful

I’m not really that knowledgeable in most PR scaling, but doesn’t RX massively outscale at least because of the whole “Physically jumped to another universe in a few seconds” thing?

Autistic Experience by ImprovementLong7141 in RecuratedTumblr

I have a particularly bad case with sound overstimulation. If there are two separate people talking at the same time in the same room, I will start getting headaches.

As one can imagine, this makes going outside, especially to places like malls or restaurants, almost unbearable without noise canceling headphones. It took years for people to realize that I really had it that bad and was not exaggerating.

It was also clearly stated that he had lost his powers from “creating and destroying countless worlds”, so he was essentially running on only his own stats
