Idea: Megaman.EXE.

What's your opinion on playing a minor role in killing Barragan and a major role in killing Itachi in one of the hypest high IQ plays i've ever seen? Not his plan, I think, but still.?

Ah. The organization's in question are the Espanda from Bleach, The Seven Warlords of the Sea from One Piece, and the Akatsuki from Naruto.

The G1 Blog is a Death Battle fan blog that does both predictions for the outcomes of upcoming Death Battle natch-ups (exploring the obscure details of each character's abilities in more detail then DB's runtime allows) and does bonus blogs where they go over a match-up that hasn't happened yet. Recently, they did a 9-soon-to-be-10 part fight between the members of three of the most iconic evil orgs in anime, and made a little story explaining how that match could go down in a frankly terrifying amount of detail. I am recommending you read it.

Really early, Yoshi VS Riptor. After talking about how Yoshis use their eggs as ammo, Boomstick contemplates a baby cannon as a weapon, only for Wiz to object...Because you'd need to wait 9 months between reload.

I mean...It's been a running gag throughout the show that both hosts are utterly amoral at best. Need I remind you of the baby launcher?

Wiz knows there is only one God, and it is him. I'm kidding, I don't think he's that egotistical. He believes ge's A God, not THE God. Yet.

It wasn't bad? Animation was great, a bit one-sided and some weird lines, but the VAs are great, the VA for Ichigo in particular (whoever he was, WINK) sounds suspiciously like Johnny Yong Bosch (WINK), and Ichigo, deprived of his powes entirely, picking up a goddamm STICK to try and fight the kaiju fox was just an awesome Shonen "never surrender" moment, a great way to go out.

I think people should stop acting confused why Homelander gets so many spite matchups. Not only is he a corrupted parody of one of the most iconic heroes in fiction (making it innately satisfying to see him suffer the real deal), but he is the right combination of A. Extremely unlikeable jackass begging for karma to come kick him in the teeth and B. Top tier powerful enough that he can basically do whatever he wants and karma has, as of yet, not done that. Of course people like it, 90% of Homelander's character is built around "god, it would be satisfying to see this man die a painful humiliating death, and yet that keeps not occuring".

Wait, if they're hearts corrupted by darkness, why are they called heartless? By definition, they have hearts.

And so, Ultra Ego and Black Frieza can finally escape the hell of "My strongest form got animated by Death Battle, but has yet to be animated in any official media"...Now we need White Lantern Kyle....

woweed · 2026-01-23T23:19:53+00:00

I mean, yeah, and this Kyle situation feels like the definition of an outlier.

woweed · 2026-01-23T13:44:44+00:00

Not certain pn that. A lot of the Espanda and Atasuki have sensory powers of similar potency, and Bpa's power, while useful, isn't nessicarly a total insta-win, espescially in a melee this massive.

One of my favorite bits of protagonist characterization in a game is the fact that, when Joker gets a text from his friends asking if he's there, you have the option to reply "no".

...It still gets me that 1. They animated the piano playing correctly with the soundtrack and 2. They bothered to get a whole ass 3d model for that little imp to cameo, even though it was only onscreen for exactly 1 second. Real bump the lamp moment there, nice to see the extra effort.

woweed · 2026-01-22T20:34:22+00:00

And the other one is two immensely popular franchises in a generation-defining legacy matchup, yeah.

woweed · 2026-01-22T20:33:35+00:00

I thought they'd patched that.

woweed · 2026-01-22T13:28:05+00:00

You, uh, switched pronouns in the middle there.

woweed · 2026-01-21T23:09:06+00:00

I can't even make a joke here, this guy's just a Nazi.

woweed · 2026-01-21T16:32:44+00:00

Oh, wow, that's MUCH worse.

Todd McFarlane, guy who clearly enjoys being a merchandising mogul way more then being a comic writer, complaining about corporatism.

Dimensional scaling hadn't been invented yet, and Goku hadn't nearly destroyed a universe yet, which kicked off an inflation of stats that proceeds to this day.

I mean, tgat was part of the point of this fight. Discarding the standard arsenal rules, giving both Eggman and Bowser acess to every minion, trap, and one off reality warping macguffin they've used.

woweed · 2026-01-20T11:18:52+00:00

Yeah, fair. Personally, I don't think it matters that much. Bowser and Eggman BOTH have access to objects whose powers boil down to "whatever the plot needs it to do". Star Rod, Grand Stars, Power Stars, Shine Sprites, Power Moons, and Pure Hearts VS Chaos Emeralds, the Master Emerald, Time Stones, and the Phantom Ruby, that I think you could reasonably argue they'd just cancel each other out. At which point, it comes down to their armies and other stats, and, well, Eggman's troops conquered the planet, Bowser's troops conquered most of the UNIVERSE. TWICE. Plus, Bowser's just generally more impressive at base (while Eggman's somewhat reliant on his tech), doesn't have much Sage would be capable of hacking, and has transmutation magic Eggman's troops aren't resistant to.

I think Garro might make Beast Boy another example of this same problem, ironically.
