I see a lot of people leaving comments showing how concerned they are about Death Battle's future. It's unclear, but I do feel more optimistic than most. That's why I left the ending note the way it was because I felt like it was written in a way that celebrates how far they've come. Though yes, I do believe that season 11 will happen regardless, even if it's gonna be released in mid-May like season 10 was. Also, I fucked up a bit at 27:11. When I say "people [who are] calling these newer animations janky", I'm referring to people who are saying Death Battle in general has bad animation and choose not to elaborate. If anyone wants to pick apart a specific episode and explain why they think its fight scene looks janky, by all means, do it! I do that, too! There was supposed to be a block of text addressing this, but my dumbass got too impatient with the post-production and I completely neglected how fanboyish this sounds. My b.

Dimitri: "I promise. I'll kill them!" "Guts: All of them!" "Guts and Dimitri: Down to the LAST ONE!!!"

Bro that part of the fight when Guts said “You’re making me go berserk” went so hard

I think my favorite part about this episode is that Ahreadbhar only breaks after Dimitri uses it 20 times. That is such a minor attention to detail and I love the episode a lot more for it.

"Here's another angle to look at." Proceeds to show the shot of Dimitri smiling but flipped. Beautiful. Just a beautiful review all around that gave me an even greater appreciation for this episode than I already had. The future is uncertain, but I'm just as hopeful that Death Battle will find a way and continue to keep growing and learning. Here's to season 10 in the mean time!

You know what, transcripting the OST for your new favorite DB episode is a big flex

It was so nice to hear someone else talk about the scene where Dimitri and Guts both go ham. Its crazy when you realize just how much alike they are, and it builds up to one of the greatest "He's just like me!" Scenes ever made and i fucking love it so much! ❤ You definitely earned my sub with this vid!

As Mr. Guts VS Dimitri himself (I basically pushed this matchup and comm’d the Brandon Yates track) I absolutely loved this. Going into great detail about the episode, and even pulling out things I didn’t even notice myself in the animation or analysis before, and I’ve watched it so many times and caught onto more and more things, and I’m still learning more too. Glad you loved this episode, I loved it too, it’s my all time favorite.

Wow and your name is Mr. Dmitry vs Guts? No wonder you loved this

57:23 Did not expect a Fawful's Minion reference here.

Guts vs Dimitri is so goddamn good, not only did it come out on my birthday. But I got to share it with an irl friend who loves Fire Emblem and didn’t really care for Death Battle. I never expected an episode with a matchup in a vacuum I don’t really care about to be so special to me but thats what’s great about Death Battle ig, full of surprises.

One thing I think is looked over is God’s hand, specifically what the name God’s hand is referring to since it’s a key thing in the lyrics. It’s obvious for Guts, the god hand is essentially the main villains of berserk (especially since Griffith joined). But Dimitri took me a bit to get, but I think it’s referring to Byleth, since he is kind of god. Specifically because Byleth giving Dimitri his hand is a big turning point in the Blue Lions path. Which makes the part about God’s hand “pushing us toward the end” take two opposite meanings; Guts it’s talking about how his enemies are trying to get him, but Dimitri it’s about how Byleth is helping him.

Very much love the appreciation given to Guts vs Dimitri in this video. Even if I feel there are some episodes that resonated with me a little more than this one, I still very much greatly enjoyed it as among my favorites of the season. Guts had such a strong redemption compared to his last outing, and seeing Fire Emblem being in DB was very cool to see.

Common Jon Frostathan W Naw but seriously, this is easily one of your best Death Battle related videos to date. Breakdowns were solid, jokes got me cackling more than a few times, and even pointed out some things that elevate this episode even higher for me. Cannot wait for the full video on Season 10 as a whole, and if it's anywhere as well put together as this...well, you've already cemented yourself as one of the biggest pioneers of this community, but you'll be solidified as one of the all time greats in due time. Stay awesome!!

This season is so good though I will say my overall thought on that in you eventual ranking video of that season, for now, I just want to say, man this episode blew my mind, especially that ending. Now well you excuse me, I will be waiting for DigitalTy to stream his Season 9 ranking. Thank you for the video, wonderful job as always.

I love seeing people talk about this episode with this much love and appreciation. And you are SUCH A CHAD going over the counter arguments for the results conclusion. Fire emblem is a franchise I hold very near and dear to my heart and I met many amazing people because of it. So seeing the first Fire emblem appearance on death battle being met with such high acclaim is beyond words for me. Thank you for covering my favorite episode of all time with the love it so rightfully deserves. Black Eagles since Day 1!🦅

i watched death battle ever since i was a kid but i honestly fell out of it really hard around season 8-9. i just couldn't get into the episodes, the post-torrian new animators animation and ideas and writing just didn't resonate with me anymore, i just got bored of it i also can't deny, nintendo is my favorite thing to see in death battle, so the total lack of nintendo at all in season 9 just absolutely obliterated my hype and interest. then i heard "dimitri's gonna be in death battle" and oh my goodness. i ignored all the disappointment i felt from death battle. fire emblem is one of my all time favorite series. we're finally getting another nintendo death battle and it has a FIRE EMBLEM character. i was SHOOK and REALLY REALLY HAPPY and oh my goodness it got me back in all the way. the writing, animation, research, detail, everything. it was just. perfect to me. it was so fantastic i loved it so much. guts vs dimitri made me a death battle fan again. it's probably my favorite death battle episode of all time. i love it so much. i dont even know what berserk is.

Although it is my number 8 in my Season 10 ranking, I believe Guts vs Dimitri is another awesome masterpiece in this season. Everything (analysis, fight, God’s Hand, and the ending) is awesome!

So after this I watch digitalty okay now I definitely know my Sunday plans.

As someone whos neither a fe or berserk fan (but still loves this episode a ton) it was awesome to hear you gush about this mastapiece and go over how its so good with its sound design, animation, and subtle references! I can tell this episode gave you everything you wanted and more! It did for you what goku vs superman 3 did for me. Im even more excited to see your season 10 full retrospective (But I can wait I know that every chef needs time to cook peak) I cant wait to hear what you have to say for the other episodes! I cant wait to hear you go over their positives and go over their flaws and give me a new perspective on them! I love hearing different opinions then mine and hearing what you have to say about these death battles give me new perspectives on them!! Tldr: you cooked with this video dude cant wait for the next! Also :0 THATS ME AT THE END I MADE IT MOM

Haven't watched the video, but I just wanted to say this beforehand. Guts Vs. Dimitri holds a special place in my heart. After several years being disillusioned by Death Battle and the Versus community in general, I completely checked out of the show and everything surrounding it around Season 4 or 5, only checking in whenever a match up that was relevant to me popped up. One of those times was Ben 10 Vs. Green Lantern, and as someone who grew up with and loves both I was more than a little disappointed with how everything turned out. However, I glanced at Season 10 (I think I watched Dark Souls Vs. Skyrim, could have been afterward) until I saw Guts Vs. Dimitri show up and, as a stalwart Fire Emblem fan, I decided to check it out. What happened next, no joke, ignited a love for Death Battle that I hadn't had until then. I began catching up on every episode I missed, I began watching KZreadrs like Biff Weed, Nemesis, and of course, Jon. The video inspired me to make my own videos talking about possible match ups for every fire emblem lord, which turned into my most consistently successful videos and made me feel genuinely thrilled to be continue making videos at a time I was feeling disheartened by a lack of success. And it all came back to this episode. So regardless of how things go in the future, where Death battle heads, or how the community changes. I will always be grateful and inspired by this episode and I am glad that so many other people feel the same way.

absolutely agree on every single point made, my favourite episode of all time. These two characters mean so much to me and they work together SO well. Seriously if you list everything they have in common it's...kinda scary how similar they are

THIS IS SO HYPE

I feel like Death Battle is one of the handful of people who are starting to realize, just because your on the internet doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want

YES NEW VIDEO TO EAT TO! Also May I say Your voice is very pleasant to listen to! cant wait to finish this video and hear your epic opinions! And the season 10 full retrospective

I remember when I first watched it, when the fight ended, I legitimately stood up, clapped, and announced out loud, "Best ending they've EVER done!!" and you know what? I STILL stand by that.

WOOOOOOOO YEAH BABY! COMMON GUTSITRI W GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

My only problem with this episode beside some of the animation is not using to other half of their connection that they were brought back from the darkness by people that they love only the sallowed by darkness It’s used in the gods hand with “what you got to lose, what you, what you got to lose” with the slight stutter of the second what you got to lose showing the have something to use So how do we fix this? The answer is we are gonna have to change the ending of the insanity scene that it still starts with them hear the voices of the dead starting to lose it but then hear the voices of those who’s alive telling them to stay alive and change the final line being something like “I will even if I have to kill every last one of them” then they go insane and it changes the final clash from to beast just trying to kill each other to two beast fighting to get back to those they need to protect. The best thing about this is that you only change one scene and the feel of the rest of the fight changes while the fight itself stays the same down to the ending

Finally finished the vid, great work as always. I don't have much to say this time aside from I agree with everything you've said, I made it into another video so look at me mom again, and the Sugerpunch shout out is based. I've been watching their stuff for years! Can't wait for them to return again

I really hope they do Byleth vs Rean Schwarzer for Season 11 or so as the next episode with a Fire Emblem character, especially we got that really good first one with Guts vs Dimitri. Both characters share so many interesting and compelling connections with each other, but the main theme of this matchup is that they are both JRPG protagonists who are renowned professors of prestigious military academies, who are excellent at swordsmanship and tactics and happen to be vessels for divine entities. It would be so awesome to have two badass university professors with a PhD in asskicking to clash with each other with their incredibly diverse array of abilities and their brilliant tactical prowess.

...Well I'll be damned. I honestly thought your new favorite episode was Scooby vs Courage since I've heard you express how much you love that episode before. But for real, this is such an amazing analysis of this episode. Guts vs Dimitri is an episode that means a lot to me because it's what got me to become a Fire Emblem fan (which is impressive considering I've been a Smash fan since Brawl), made me interested in checking out Berserk, and how's it's just a phenomenal episode with an incredible fight, with the last minute of it having two of my favorite scenes in all of death battle. It's currently in my top 4 favorite episodes of all time behind Goku vs Superman 3, Dante vs Bayonetta, and Dio vs Alucard. Also, I just wanted to express that your videos have been some of the best DB related videos I have ever seen. The superb editing and the attention to detail when your analyzing something make for a fun watch every time. I can't wait to see how you rank season 10 with that in mind. But wait, you said that Winter is the best season when it's clearly the worst and Fall stomps on all fronts so nvm, 0/10 video, will not be seeing the season 10 ranking.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who liked the episode a lot As for my favourite of the season? Possibly Rick vs The Doctor but that's mainly me just being a massive R&M fan (I wonder what gave it away) with my only real complaints of the episode being Rick's analysis was too short Rick getting caught by the Sonic Screwdriver twice in the animation was a bit weird alongside him letting the Doctor monologue. I got 2 of my most wanted episodes 2 seasons in a row 46:31 Shoutout to my comment getting featured and it's nice to see other youtubers in the video

What I would’ve given for Dimitri’s crest to Proc as he’s using Atrocity.

Another really good matchup with thematic similarity to Guts vs Dimitri would be Velvet Crowe (Tales of Berseria) vs Clive Rosfield (Final Fantasy XVI). Both of them are action JRPG protagonists from the 16th games of their respective series with a significantly darker tone to stand out, who wield blades and demonic arms on a quest for vengeance after a tragedy in which their younger brothers were killed and their aforementioned demonic arms manifested in the aftermath, only to discover that the circumstances behind the tragedies that befell them were not exactly as it seemed to them, and eventually come to terms with said revelation and end up struggling against gods who schemed to strip humanity of free will.

Your new favourite is Guts vs Dimitri? ME TOO! Also, I love Hamlet and I’m a Death Battle fan I’ve never read Berserk or played Fire Emblem: Three Houses. But, after Dimitri’s analysis, he is one of my favourite characters in fiction

I really hope Death Battle can find a new owner. Season 10 is what made me a fan again, and I’d hate if they ended it

I am happy you picked this episode to make a big analysis for considering I have no clue why people love it so much. I get that its good but as someone whos not really a big fan of either of them I dont know much about them.

Season 10 easily is their best season thus far For me, there were dream matches I always wanted, ones I didn't know I needed and a few I had no interest in but still loved. Those being Cole v Alex, DragonBorn v Chosen Undead & The Doctor vs Rick, respectively The latter especially was a shock for me. No interest in either franchise but it ended up being my 3rd favorite fight, period and that was not an easy bar to surpass This show I have watched for years since my best friend first showed me the Pokémon Starter episode. My husband and I have watched this together at times (we got a Brandom commish in the pipes) and i have 3 dream fights I'd k*ll to animate myself. This show means a lot in a way If season 10 sadly ends up being the last season, then what a fucking hell of a season to go out on. Even if it's not, this season is forever a highlight Even it's worst still ended up being real damn good ♡ what more could we ask for

On the matter of scaling, my personal issue is the false equivalences given. There's no way of proving that Edelgard's Hegemon form is equivalent to her strength with Amyr, nor that her with Amyr contributing to killing Rhea deals with the same durability that Rhea had against the Javelins of Light, NOR that that durability feat actually scales against the Javelins' destructive power. In general I tend to disagree with the powerscaling community about when feats & scaling are appropriate. They tend to scale things beyond what actually makes sense for their series' intended power level (i.e. Dimitri being stronger than a nuke).

They were both wanked to oblivion too. Dodging magic and sound doesn’t make characters with no other feats of superspeed ftl. The logic of scaling dimitri to light javelins could be used to scale wolverine to infinity guantlet. Also, they completely ignored the scaling of the shambala roof ( which was in the same cutscene rhea got hit in) to wank it millions of times greater in a feat where we don’t even know how many were launched. And they gave dimitri city level durability because he tanked a spell from a wizard whose earthquake spell shook the screen. Only earthquakes damage you by dropping rubble on you, also, DIMITRI TANKED AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT SPELL! The spell he tanked wasnt even physical, dark magic attacks you with severe negative emotions that eat at your soul like despair.

@@Ravensgale I guess we'll just have to respectfully disagree. As for Goku vs Superman being done 3 times, Ben Singer has went on record stating how he ended up hating what Goku vs Superman 2 ended up vexoming and wanted to give the matchup the proper send-off it deserved.

@@Ravensgale Indeed, it is what it is. As for Ben, uh, I wouldn't exactly say that. By his own words, the original Goku vs Superman is a classic and an important stepping stone to the series, but the episode, and especially the conclusion, although interesting for the time objectivily do not hold up with how the team does scaling and stuff nowadays. Plus, Goku vs Superman 2 was never meant to be a "sequel", but rather an afternath that would present 20 minutes of footage from the original that were cut for pacing issues. Unfortunately, the episode ended up being presented as a sequel, a decision that Ben regrets, and by his admission accidentally disresoected Superman and kicked Dragon Ball fans while they were down, leaving no one satisfied. Goku vs Superman 3, or more accurately Goku vs Superman: The Reboot, was meant to be a fresher take on the matchup that would hood up better against the passage of time as well as allowing the team to leave this matchup that meant so much to them, the series and the channel on better terms with an episode that they could be proud of. If you don't buy all that, well, do as you wish, obviously. Those were my 2 final cents on it.

The scaling logic for both dimitri and guts was wack though. Both db versions would be like superman in their actual worlds. They even completely ignored the scaling of the light javelins at shambala to wank them into infinite by using aliel instead which is already a bad comparison since you could use the same scaling to make wolverine universal by claiming he beat hulk who beat thanos therefore wolverines strength is = to infinity gauntlet.

but dimitri is directly shown overpowering edelgard, which a lesser version directly overpowered rhea. The logic does make sense because it's actually SHOWN dimitri is stronger than Edelgard- at least in that route.

@@FranTheNerd edelgard didn’t directly overpower rhea. In the cutscene, rhea is barely able to move because its at the end of the battle in which edelgard had an entire army with several relics. (which the agarthaans specifically made to kill dragons) and she had byleths help delivering the final blow. Dimitri also has an army and the cutscene takes place after edelgard was already defeated. The assumption that they soloed their final bosses is only an assumption because the real reason the army isn’t shown is because the army could be made up of numerous different characters. And assuming in powerscaling isn’t viable. Also, rhea was wanked millions of times greater herself since in the same cutscene rhea barely survives being caught in the outskirts of a light javelin, we see the direct aftermath of one from both above and below in the roof of shambala which barely encompassed a few trees in its destructive radius. ( we never see aliel, nor do we know how many javelins were used, and sothis was there and could have been partially responsible, plus you have to completely ignore shambala which is the only fully viewable javelin feat that we see and happens in the same cutscene rhea gets hit in. Ignoring this is blatant and intentional wank.

@@dddgaming885 again, I agree with the verdict, the scaling is just really bad for both. Wanking doesn’t make characters better nor does being stronger. I hate that I can’t debate without people thinking I’m just salty. Powerscalers are so toxic.

​@@FranTheNerdthey both do that with literal armies, and neither Edelgard or Dimitri were fighting alone. Dimitri also is canonically killed by generic soldiers with spears by just stabbing him multiple times which is a significant lower durability feat.

As a Fire Emblem fan I'm not a fan of it mostly because I don't agree with the feats they gave Dimitri. Dimitri isn't that fast or strong. No Dimitri isn't light speed because he can dodge faith magic and no he can't tank missiles because him backed up with an army can defeat Edelgard who can when backed up with an army can defeat a dragon that survived being attacked with missiles but yet somehow can still die to generic soldiers being able to stab him to death with normal spears

Dimitri being killabke by ordibary soldiers is either a nerfing outlier or just a non-canon game mechanic.

@sam7559

18 күн бұрын

@vaggos2003 it's not an outlier, every route except for AM Dimitri dies, VW it is explicitly because soldiers stabbed him to death, CF it is because he failed to fight off Edelgard's army and is executed by Edelgard, and in SS it is off screen but is implied to be the same fate he faced in VW and was only off screen due to Byleth not being on Gonder Field in that route. Even in AM he was at risk of being stabbed to death by a child and was only saved by his father figure jumping in to take the blow instead. We have more routes of him dying or at risk of death to normal people compared to routes where you can at least say his cause of death is someone that can be scaled to high levels of strength.

@vaggos2003 the issue is that in Three Houses we see the stats of a generic villager and due to the way stats work short of having a crest a generic villager can do pretty much every feat given to Dimitri just maybe with less consistency. They can dodge light based attacks, tank meteors, damage and possibly kill Rhea which scales them to Dimitri. They're stats are low but Fire Emblem works on a system of low enough numbers that you can offen still do stuff. Heck one example of a challenge run I've seen is people beating the game with zeros in specific stats like strength or speed
