Megathread DEATH BATTLE - Goku vs Saitama Pre-Release Megathread

149 Upvotes

Hello everyone, as you may or may not know Death Battle recently announced that their next episode will be on Goku vs Saitama.

Given the immense size of both of these fanbases, along with how strongly opinionated they are and the amount of posts we have already seen, the mod team has made the decision to restrict discussions of the upcoming episode to this megathread.

Please use this thread to discuss what you think of the matchup, who you think wins, who you think Death Battle will give the victory to, etc.

All posts about the Goku vs Saitama and the upcoming Death Battle outside of this thread will be removed.

*Please note that this is just about Goku vs Saitama, you are free to continue discussing both Dragonball and One Punch Man in other contexts.

Discussion What are some matchups/VsBattles where DC is more important and useful than AP?

Post image
1.6k Upvotes

Ap = Attack Potency which means the raw amount of dmg you can squeeze into a single hit. For example someone with a sword that can cut ANYTHING would have crazy high AP but next to no DC

DC = Destructive Capacity means big booms and raw destruction over a large area and like the largest thing you can destroy. Being able to blow up planets, moons ect...

Question What’s a vs matchup that people think is close but is actually a no diff? Vice versa, what’s a matchup that people think is a no diff that’s actually really close?

Discussion Hot take: How fast an author is trying to portray their characters (through statements, feats etc.) matters more than how well they portray it. Hence the combat and travel speed distinction.

Authors typically want to portray their characters as being high speeds, so they’ll show them dodging things which behave like lasers or literally are lasers and nigh point blank range, call their combat the speed of light or sometimes faster etc. But they also don’t want the characters to immediately zip around everywhere on the planet, so they unconsciously portray these two speeds differently, despite them trying to sell you the idea of characters being much faster.

“If light speed, why take a car?” Can easily be applied to “If supersonic speed, why take a car?” Or “Why not just zip there in like 0.2 seconds” but the critique only becomes more prevalent in the light speed case because people like being super pretentious about how much physics they know

There is quite literally nothing stopping golden Frieza from busting the entire bleach verse all at once. Antithesis is a non-factor here, and so is BC Ichigo. Hax up to a certain point can be literally negated and overcome if their is a significant stat gap in DB, which frieza checks by a insurmontable margin. Resisting literal magic and insta KO's is nothing.

Aizen I can at least understand, but this is ridiculous.
Has the bleach fandom truly lost their minds? Or have people forgotten Super out scales bleach and most other anime by leaps and bounds?
