Every Season 9 DEATH BATTLE Episode Ranked

I went into this thinking "alright I should probably make these segments shorter since I've covered most of the episodes before" and then accidentally made the longest scripted video on my channel, oops.

    Especially with what has been going on IRL for him. It still is a negative to the episode(s), in my opinion, I cannot and will not hold it against Artemis or DB in general. Sure they could’ve gotten someone else, but you friend needs money, work, and this is a goofy internet show. It’d be like blaming the animators for Dragon Ball Super’s early seasons looking like dog water it wasn’t their fault. I hope Artemis is doing better, genuinely.

    8:14 Look, there has absolutely been too much shit thrown at DevilArtemis for this fight, I cannot stress how much I agree with this point and my respect for what he was able to do in the position he was in is massive, especially considering I just spent the past 4 years getting my degree in the same field. That being said, I think there’s something to be said for the sentiment of wondering about if Torrian had directed this fight that goes beyond a simple distaste for DevilArtemis as an animator, and that absolutely has to do with the specialization of both animators. DevilArtemis is a FANTASTIC animator, so is Torrian, but they’re fantastic at different things and that’s due to their training. For Artemis, he’s very much more trained for body language, expression, and the more acting-based side of the spectrum. Not to say that he CAN’T do other things, but a specialty comes about from what you do the most, which is why his work on HFIL and his own Cell VS series is so phenomenal. Torrian is the opposite side of this equation. Torrian’s animations usually aren’t big in the expression department, and subtlety has never been his thing. Torrian is a choreographer, his bread and butter is hand to hand combat, he’s so damn good he’s made people think his manual animation was mocap as early as Snake vs Sam. In a full production setting, these two would be working both TOGETHER and to their strengths, because both excel in areas where the others lack. It’s not necessarily (though some responses were 100%) an attack on someone to say the man who has been working in specifically hand to hand combat would have likely handled the hand to hand fight better than the character animator, people have strengths and while I think Artemis did great all things considered the current DB3D team lacks that key piece of the puzzle and sometimes it shows considering at one point they had a team with a full range. DevilArtemis is NOT a bad animator, he’s AMAZING, but I think there’s a valid critique in there that goes beyond Artemis’ skill itself that the current team lacks a member who knows how to make some realistic beatdowns. I’m not even necessarily saying the team lacks without Torrian specifically, what I am saying is they need someone who specializes in a similar vein to Torrian to help smooth out rough areas like hand-to-hand. In the same vein, I wouldn’t want Torrian animating Death Race, that show’s a whole lot more comedic in tone and Torrian’s character work lacks in comparison to Artemis. Neither animator is better, per say, just different. Overall, Artemis did great with the hand he was given but it is also unfair and impractical to expect miracles from an animator who’s toolset doesn’t necessarily match the style. This is absolutely not Artemis’ fault, but this episode does show a critical flaw with the DB3D at the moment which is holding them back in a sense, and that’s the fact they need someone who fills in the “melee” gap.

    So to explain Vegeta's line, I feel people are taking it the wrong direction. Which yeah Lani's stress in the sentence does kinda guide to the interpretation of gods in general. But he's more saying "Do gods of your type feel fear?" he was essentially attacking Thor's pride and his joyous spirit by saying he'll tear down Thor from his opulent and carefree mindset. Which he kinda did by forcing him into Warrior's Madness. But anyways, overall great video Biff and I hope to see more DB and variety content from you ahead. Love the work you put into these videos.

The ProZD reference was great, I actually didn't know about the Street Fighter IV inspiration, I totally agree with how Adam's indomitable will helped him shine in the fight, I wholeheartedly agree with Jason vs Michael having one of the best analysis segments, I liked how you followed through on your preference for anti climaxes at the end of your WickBond segment, the cocaine edit was funny, it was cool seeing our number 1's be the same, and while I prefer season 9 ever so slightly I totally understand your reasoning.

    The reason why I think Adam v Apocalypse is so skewed is because Apocalypse basically no sells every single attack except for when Adam grabs the death seed. Being punched didn't fase him, nor did the living lightning. The yellow lantern ring did basically nothing. Even being vaporised he was still stronger than Adam who just lay there. Adam was either matching Apocalypse or getting bodied. Never was he shown to have any advantage. Which is fine, it just makes it rather uninteresting when the winner dominates so thoroughly. Personality was great, very even moments for them both to shine.

I can understand that some people like Nem don't bring the episode up fo their own personal reasons and i won't blame or shame them for it, but with characters i was more excited to learn about then anyone else in the season as well as a fight that conveys the feeling of an ancient legend being told in a visual medium makes this one of my personal favorites of the season and i am glad to see you go a bit more in depth then most people i've seen willing to talk about the episode.

    I’ve been arguing with myself for months on how I felt about Jason vs Michael, so here’s my full breakdown before I change my mind AGAIN. Jason vs Michael was my most wanted for years on end. Jason Voorhees is arguably my favorite character in all of fiction, and my recent watch of the original Halloween made me an immediate fan of Michael. I’ve brainstormed so many ideas over the years of how this fight can go, and seeing this get announced after SpongeBob vs Aquaman was the most hyped I’ve been in years. So you can imagine the crushing disappointment I felt when the episode dropped. While the analysis and conclusion were pretty great and hearing them talk about slashers was incredibly surreal, the fight really let me down. The start was solid, but nearly everything after Michael stabs Jason immediately falls flat, with incredibly janky movement, a camera that has no idea what to focus on, and action that’s far too fast paced for these characters. They should’ve been slower and more hard hitting, with Jason being noticeably stronger and tougher, and Michael being faster and smarter, but no, that’s not what we got. However I did enjoy Michael impaling Jason on the tree, with it being a good callback to the original Halloween. But then Joe Victim shows up and everything goes to shit again. Michael hits him in the back with an axe and it accomplishes nothing, which makes Michael look incredibly pathetic, and no, I don’t care if this is a DBD reference, because this moment makes Michael look completely incompetent at killing, though I do appreciate the knife stuck in the tree but Jason is gone. After another extremely brief clash and Jason kills Joe, we get the ending, which actually has a moment that, while flawed, is something I really wanted. Pamela motivating Jason to continue fighting on and seeing the light in his eyes for the first time in the fight was actually really awesome. However it also makes it look like Jason wasn’t trying at all the entire fight which makes Michael look even MORE pathetic. As a result, while the kill is pretty good, there’s no satisfaction in Michael dying. Then we get a solid sixteen seconds of Jason walking, which certainly would’ve been better used in the fight. That being said, I shall comment on something I unironically loved to death. Jason pulling a knife out of his head and decapitating Michael with it is raw as hell. It’s such a Jason Voorhees moment that showcases the one thing I adore about his character, his inability to give a damn. Unfortunately, even that can’t save the animation. However, I don’t blame DevilArtemis at all. He was going through an awful time during this episodes production, so no ill feelings towards him at all, and to the people who said they should drop the current 3D animators and back Torrian, why? So with that being said, we have a decent analysis and an alright conclusion, but an incredibly disappointing fight that barely even showcases what we all came for. This is, as much as it hurts to say it, a 4/10. But you want to know the worst part? I had a lot of stock in this episode because this was likely the last chance we would ever get to see this fight done with any kind of decently sized budget. With the film rights to Friday the 13th being held hostage and the current owners of the Halloween license out right stating they don’t want to do crossovers, fan made content is the only way to see this matchup be brought to light. Unfortunately, no disrespect intended of course, most are too low budget to do it justice, and the singular one that isn’t (Evil Emerges) focuses too much on the action aspect and not enough on the horror aspect. Death Battle was our last chance to see this done, but they too unfortunately dropped the ball. Guess I shouldn’t be surprised that anything associated with Friday the 13th would have bad luck. Great video Range Rover, hope to see you again soon.

Asta doesnt seem like the kinda dude who when knowing that deku is dead (apparently he can sense ki or some shit idk) proceeds to mutilate his dead body in a friendly tournament. the rest of the fight was enjoyable and as someone who is planning on watching on black clover but hasnt yet, i cannot comment on asta's portrayal.

    Can we all admit one thing Sauron vs Lich king really slapped when it didn't need too, so it being one of, if not the best this season has to offer really shows how well they can use rather obscure characters (Tbh idk how many people knew Sauron before this episode) Definitely agree with those who say it's one of the best, even if I prefer Spongebob vs Aquaman or Silver vs Trunks over it.

    Sauron is not obscure at all, he’s the villain in one of the most popular film/book series of all time. The DB fanbase just didn’t know who he was because he came from media that wasn’t a shonen anime or Marvel/DC comic book.

    I think my only possible nitpick with SpongeBob vs Aquaman is just changing up Wiz’s “This fight was incredibly close” stuff, not having the whole gotcha line and adding other stuff. One idea I had was having Boomstick ask if Wiz was just saying that to make himself feel better, just to have Wiz go “I…yeah…”

    Here are my nitpicks with the episode: -The whole scene where Aquaman is trying to punch Spongebob wasn't animated very well. It barely looked like Aquaman was actually hitting Spongebob. -The underwater sky changes from orange to blue in between shots. -Aquaman making his heroic comeback before Spongebob finished his speech was a little jarring. -The stock explosion between the two of them throwing their strongest attacks and Aquaman's emotional death sticks out a bit like a sore thumb. -I feel that Boomstick should have had a more emotional reaction to Aquaman's death and actually agreed with Wiz's point about what makes a true hero before making a final joke. -The portals really go unexplained. Apparently they are from Nicktoons Unleashed, but it's unclear and Spongebob could make a reference to Nicktoons so as to make the refetence more clear. -Also, those portals out of nowhere show a bunch of other Aquamen. -You know, Aquaman throwing the entire ocean towards Spongebob is something that is obviously less jarring and out-of-character in a few-minute fanfiction fight rather than on a full-on story, especially in a very comedic and silly fight like this, but it's still kinda pretty jarring. Also, cartoon logic, rush of the moment, character naivety and the thing being quickly undone. Plus, such destruction happens all the time in versus, for better or worse. Still, jarring to see a hero cause such destruction. -Kinda same nitpick, same small defenses and same overall kinda jarring feeling for Spngebob sucking the entire ocean inside him. Also, Spongebob had less of a reason to do that. -The first Spongebob laugh wasn't done that well. -I feel that Wiz should have been a bit more successful at making Aquaman look cool after Boomstick presented an actually cool feat. I've heard that this Aquaman is actually star level. We could actually have seen that in here. Still, as I said, nitpicks. The heart and overall quality of the episode is phenomenal.

    Considering they’ve botched no-limits fallacies, and bastardized character and their intentions before, I *dreaded* Saitama’s name in vsbattles Yeah, real fun times when the debate was brought up Bad memories crept in when they announced this fight, long after I’ve watched and loved OPM, and made my peace with the debate. Pop-eye made it easier to handle the pregaming, since did grown up on him, and enjoyed his show a lot Cut to the premiere, I watch with bated breath to see the analyses… And… They’re perfect. They’ve done Pop-eye very well, but they did Saitama FANTASTICALLY, and the fight? I needn’t mention everything they did *right* do I? The conclusion reflected my exact mindset on how Saitama is in terms of power, and didn’t sell him short or overhype him. If Yoda-Mickey brought me back, Saitama vs Popeye made me a proud Death Battle Fan once more!

I have no evidence for this but it is my little pet theory as to why this episode is Death Battle's Christmas Special for some reason.

    so like, the thing about deku not breaking his bones so much, it's sorta just what mha became, he still struggles with keeping control of his quirks, but both because he got stronger and better with all for one, and because it'd get boring if he never learnt (especially since he started damaging his ligaments), it stopped being because of him breaking his bones as much, especially after he developed his shoot style. this is also probably why he went straight from one hundred to one million percent, as one million percent is just a symbolic thing about how much he's trying, and if he's at the point of willing to start breaking his bones again, he's definitely giving it his all.
