No matter who should win or how, this episode was just a treat from start to finish. The fight looks and sounds incredible, the lines are both funny and badass when they need to be, and it drips passion for both characters and the matchup in general. If they can do even half as well next time, we might even get the best Shao Khan depiction in years.

What was the buff exactly The town level meteors seemed reasonable. I’m pretty sure they even showed the calc in the death battle I guess you could say the light speed calc was reasonable as well given manga statements and scaling. The World is arguably superior to Star Platinum. Star Platinum is superior to Stone Free(I’m pretty sure). And Star Platinum is stated to move at the speed of light. He also kept up with silver chariot with two swords and we know silver chariot cut hanged man. So I’m a little curious. What’s the buff?
@mrreyes50042 жыл бұрын
@@Joker-tj9qz The buff is from comparing Jotaro's stats in the _Jotaro VS Kenshiro_ episode (which happened about 4 whole years ago btw) to Dio's stats here. In Jotaro VS Kenshiro, Star Platinum - which is equal to The World in strength and speed - was given relativistic speed just under the speed of light and a strength level around Large Building level. Here, though, The World is buffed to MUCH faster than light and strong enough to wreck entire towns rather than just single buildings, so Star Platinum (again, equal to The World) should be at those levels too. Just to be clear, the ending of Jotaro VS Kenshiro wouldn't change even if Jotaro & Star Platinum was given these updated stats, due to a bunch of buffs and techniques not even being used for Kenshiro back then either. I've seen some folks complaining that the ending of that episode would change with these buffs for Star Platinum... when, no, it would not change.

I was so worried it would be Dio being pathetically thrown around like a ragdoll and spouting JoJo memes before being killed in a humiliating fashion. Instead, it's an amazingly cool, dark, gothic fight that has a hammy, but completely badass Dio managing to do a total 180 when fighting an eldritch demigod, going from terrified and being thrown around to outmanuvering and working the environment around him to win. I love it so much.
@mrreyes50042 жыл бұрын
I legit feel like Dio's portrayal is one of the most accurate character representations Death Battle has ever done; comedically over-the-top confidence and almost silly attack choices, but still very much a cunning tactician with nigh-unbeatable abilities and strength. Even when Alucard does catch Dio off-guard, Dio recollects himself almost immediately and turns the tables with a strategic use of his powers. Even the memetic Road Roller, as absolutely silly as it seems, is actually a strategic move since it allows Dio to crush and beat down opponents with his sheer power _while also_ putting distance and a barrier between him and said enemy to avoid a counterattack at the same time. The fact that Dio used the Road Roller right after witnessing the long-range Baskerville is a subtle touch since it perfectly stopped Alucard from feasibly counterattacking using Baskerville again while still letting Dio whale on him right then (as well as later using Time Stop when falling from Big Ben to drain Alucard's blood and put needed distance between himself and Alucard _and_ allowing Dio to use Space Ripper Stingy Eyes to take care of Alucard's soul army at the exact same time). Alucard's a similar case; he initially starts the fight using his usual tactic of taking hits and finding an opening, but when Dio's toughness and resourcefulness proves that won't work in this fight, Alucard is actually forced to switch tactics by going on the offensive with his army and extra limbs. His canonical hatred for humanity-disregarding vampires like Dio also prompts a predictable level of extra aggression and spite towards Dio, _especially_ since Dio was proving to be tougher to kill than anyone Alucard's ever fought (including Anderson btw), prompting Alucard to decide to attack up close in short-range rather than utilize his longer-ranged options... which unfortunately suits Dio and The World just fine due to that close range being Dio's bread and butter anyway. Notice how Dio dominates the fight starting from when Alucard lunges at him on Big Ben all the way to the ending when before Alucard had the edge when he used his long-range army and attacks, due to Alucard increasingly becoming enraged enough at having a hard time against an enemy he canonically would heavily despise that he forgoes his long-range attacks to fight up close where Dio has the edge, a subtle sign that Alucard indeed lacks Dio's strategic smarts that let Dio stay level-headed throughout the fight and ultimately win.

@@mrreyes5004 while I do agree with a lot you said Alucard himself was a tactician when he fought the Turks. I do believe his rage blinded him, as I doubt he would go level Zero against Dio especially realizing he could stop time. I believe that was an oversight on either deathbattle part or even Alucard himself. If Alucard would have never gone level Zero he could have eventually killed Dio and that's why they did not do it, all Alucard had to do was separate Dios head from him body then eat it. Which would have been far too boring.

Come on man they said at the end that Dio could kill Alucard 3 million times before Dio dies even once, Level 0 is purely for the animation factor and the fact that Dio killing Alucard 3 million times would either take forever to animate or be done with a montage which would ruin the high quality animation we got. Also you say that’s all he has to do, but Dio is 800,000 times faster than Alucard and can stop time, if Alucard even could get close to him Dio would stop time and move to an infinitely more favorable position, not to mention there is no guarantee Alucard has the strength to rip Dio’s head off because Dio has taken hits 40,000 times strong than Alucard can do, so he’d just be sitting there not being able to completely the rip and even if it start to rip Alucard is close enough for Dio to sink his fingers into him and just repeatedly heal and again that’s all assuming Dio let’s Alucard even try to rip his head off.

Exactly. I've seen some folks complain that with the stats Dio had here (i.e. Silver Chariot now being hundreds of times light speed and Stone Free's kiloton meteor feat), Jotaro would now win... those people don't seem to know that Kenshiro was actually lowballed _EVEN MORE_ than Jotaro (Kenshiro scales to cloud-slicing feats _WAY_ above that of Dio's, has soul attacks to hurt Star Platinum directly, even actual fate control, etc). In fact, by the Death Battle crew's _own admission,_ they were basically forced to use only a _small fraction_ of Kenshiro's abilities and moves (since including them all would probably take about half an hour in a video just for Kenshiro's analysis alone). *_So Kenshiro would actually still win anyway,_* he'd just look even cooler doing it now than in the original episode. At best, if the cast did Jotaro VS Kenshiro again, it would only be an updated remake/remaster like Samus Aran VS Boba Fett.

@@hadouradiance3566 Yeah, apparently fate is a concrete and observable force in Hokuto no Ken like it is in JoJo, with everyone and anyone being subjected to fate and unable to truly change their predetermined destiny... _except of course the friggin men of Hokuto such as Kenshiro,_ who just passively hijack the universe by privately controlling their own destinies (there's even a scene where a fortune-telling priest very similar to Enya from Part 3 and Doppio's fortune-teller from Part 5 straight up tells Kenshiro that he can't read Kenshiro's future due to Kenshiro's powers allowing him to essentially write his own story independently of the universe's sealed timeline). Kenshiro even scales above Toki, who somehow summoned Raoh's Harbinger of Death via pure skill alone (FYI anyone who sees the Harbinger of Death consellation is fated to die within a year, something that should only happens when a select few are fated to look up and see it in the sky.... except for Hokuto men who can apparently just spam fate-decided deaths without fate's permission). Whereas in JoJo, it later becomes a _PLOT POINT_ that nobody, not even the greatest Stand users, can truly alter their own predestined path (heck, changing an incoming fate in JoJo is itself predetermined), so Kenshiro just having this alone gives him a _tremendous_ advantage considering Jotaro, for all his power, very much _IS_ still a slave to fate in his own story.

I liked the battles entertainment value, and I think that's what was more important here, rather than getting the correct result. So it's all good.

@@ascendantsamurai4067 "they stated that Dio can hypnotize Alucard and force him to eject schrodinger, this is a baseless claim, Alucard has no demonstrated vulnerability to hypnosis or other mental attacks." This counterargument is actually wrong, and is fallacious; in Ultraguy's extensive Q&A of this episode on his blogspot (literally just type in "ultraguy dio vs alucard q&a blogspot" to find it), it's explained Alucard could be hypnotized because he _hasn't_ demonstrated INvulnerability to hypnosis. Just because a character hasn't shown that they're vulnerable to mind attacks _doesn't_ mean they actually _ARE_ immune to those attacks. By your exact logic, Dora the Exploror, Kool-Aid Man and Smokey Bear should all be considered immune to hypnosis solely because she also has no demonstrated vulnerability to hypnosis... no, that doesn't fly. A character not showing vulnerability to a an attack doesn't at all mean they are immune to it, only a feat of _proving_ to be immune is enough (an example being Booster Gold _proving_ to be immune to psychic attacks when he resisted a mental onslaught from Maxwell rather than simply never being hit by a psychic attack). It would be different if Alucard actually did show that he can ward off mind attacks, but no, he has none. Now, Dio ALSO has no shown immunity to mind attacks, but since he's way faster and therefore Alucard would have an extremly hard time just keeping up with him, it's way more of a non-issue for Dio.

@@nox9775 "yeah but if we are going by the logic that alycards bullets don't stop Dios healing factor because they are different types of vampires then a stand wouldn't be able to grab alucard as he doesn't have the same intangible as the jojos." Actually, you're wrong there; that's fallacious logic. Alucard's intangilibity _IS EXACTLY_ like a Stand's intangiblity (both Alucard and Stands phase through walls and objects the exact same way), while Dio is a different vampire from Alucard because JoJo vampires aren't unholy demons and are instead just humans with altered life energies, while vampires in Hellsing _ARE_ cursed unholy beings and not just enhanced humans. You're comparing apples to oranges, which doesn't work and is false. Like I said, Stands are shown touching a _TON_ of different intangible beings (Silver Chariot affecting noncorporeal shadows, Heaven's Door catching and subduing an actual ghost, Stone Free grabbing a Stand that was phasing through a wall despite Stone Free itself not being intangible when it grabbed it, etc, with ghosts and shadows being entirely different from each other, so an intangible vampire would be no different). There's still nothing stopping The World from just grabbing Alucard by his neck like a cat and then yeeting him from Dio's body; just because Dio and Alucard are different types of vampires doesn't mean their intangibilities work differently (by your logic, the air of their worlds should also be completely different which makes no sense). "he definitely isn't fighting at faster then light for every fight and I doubt he would be able to keep up his speed without getting hit for the entire day it would take to kill alucard." Incorrect again. The entire point of Jotaro VS Dio is that both were going all out with everything they had - both strength _AND_ speed - for nearly the entire fight to see which of the two similar Stands would come out on top. Also, as Hive pointed out, Dio's vampire body gives him limitless stamina (reminder that Dio survived being locked in a coffin at the bottom of the ocean for a hundred years straight and emerged just fine... so yeah, he could definitely keep moving at his top speed for hours and even days straight without breaking a sweat).

“The Bird of Hermes is my name. Eating my Wings to keep me tame.” "Wh-What the hell are you?!" "A real *fucking* vampire!" Dio vs Alucard was so incredible loved everything about it and the dialogue is some of my favorite of the whole show.
@mrreyes50042 жыл бұрын
"You want blood, you disgusting vampire!? Choke on your own!" "I want... _to rule... _*_THE WORLD!"_* 100% agree. The fight somehow bounced Dio and Alucard's abilities and fighting styles off each other seamlessly, while demonstrating how both are nigh-unkillable beasts; Alucard as an unstoppable eldritch demigod, and Dio as an immovable strategic monster. Even during moments when Alucard did frighten Dio, Dio gets his calm back pretty quick and then Reverse Unos by catching Alucard off guard (i.e. Dio recovering from Baskerville in seconds to dunk a road roller on Alucard, and Alucard confidently siccing his overwhelming army on Dio getting instantly thwarted by Dio stopping time and Space Ripper Stingy Eyes-ing his entire zombie horde in one shot), with an epic interplay between the two of them constantly having to unleash new tricks and abilities to keep the other on their toes while still maintaining their smug auras.

@@animeproblem1070 "and in this situation where waiting it out and just using his telekinesis to keep dio in the sunlight would have guaranteed his victory" Nope. They literally pointed out how Alucard wouldn't do that because he doesn't know Dio would die in sunlight (since vampires in Hellsing aren't weak to the Sun), just like how Beast wouldn't know about Goliath's "stone-in-daytime" weakness. Also, telekinesis wouldn't do squat because Dio's vampire body and The World are both stronger than Alucard's telekinesis (lol Alucard's telekinesis could love a 0.65 ton of blood... that's cute, vampires like Dio can lift 20 ton road rollers, 60 ton boulders (stronger than Tarkus) and The World = Star Platinum which is stronger than the meteor busting Stone Free, so if Alucard tried telekinetically keeping Dio in place then Dio could easily just overpower it by walking to cover with his vampire strength or by dragging himself with the vastly stronger The World).

@@animeproblem1070 Simply put, Alucard wouldn't know to wait it out, and he couldn't because Dio being a vampire with The World to protect him means Alucard has no real openings to attack. If he doesn't use Level 0, Dio just kills him 3 million times over (which he can do thanks to The World's body-pulverizing punch-rushes, his freezing technique that reduces an enemy's body to particles including the heart, his own predilection of impaling people through the chest, etc), and if he does use Level 0, Dio just uses Space Ripper Stingy Eyes to get rid of all of the familiars in one go before dealing with Alucard himself.

The analysis are solid, the editing is great as usual, the animation is fantastic with how creative & true to both DIO & Alucard they got, the song Hell Over Heaven is a banger, & finally; The research covered quite a bit from both camps. The choice of winner may be controversial, but the argument is pretty sound & has several pieces of evidence to back the claim. Overall, the vampire fight is easily one of the best episodes of the season for me. Deathbattle really knocked it out of the park.

Well tbf the research they used was actual dogshit for DIO. Something important to note is that Feats from season 1 Dio, are largely non applicable to Stand Dio, his healing power has been astronmically nerfed, he seems to not have access to any of his powers in addition to this, all that can be explained due to having Josephs Hamon body, who he had yet to merge completely with, nerfing his vampire powers. Blows that he would of instantly regenerated from, now do fuck off tons of huge damage to him with him having great difficulty in healing more serious injuries. In addition, they used his stands stats and his own as interchangeable, which makes no fucking sense, he's nowhere near the power of his stand or speed. This means the whole -Alucard gets speed blitzed all the time by base DIO, largely a non existent factor, with him only capable of doing that via Time stop or his stand. The difference between Dio And Alucard in this fight is that Alucard has 3 million lives to do somewhat decent damage on Dio once to gain a massive advantage in the fight, with more more varied tactics and experience in Alucards favour

So my biggest issue is that Dio had access to the full compliment of his vampiric abilities, when Part 3 Dio doesn't have access to most of them, and his healing factor is severely reduced thanks to how he's taken the body of a Hamon Master. Yet they wouldn't give Alucard access to Schrodinger's abilities because that would also break the in universe rules for the fight. Plus one I just realized, they mentioned that Alucard's weapons wouldn't really be able to kill Dio being "Holy Weapons" and Jojo vampires aren't weak to that, but if Dio's brain is destroyed he would still die, hell Polnareff nearly kills him that way, and they have a clip of Dio's skull getting vented by Alucard's guns.

Some things: 1_Dio get his vampire powers back once he drain Joseph blood. He even show this by drilling his skull testing his regeneration power. 2_Destroing a vampire brain in Jojo doesn't kill him. Remember the one who become pure flesh and blood in a explosion? The brain is a weakness because a vampire use it to the same things as us like think or move the body. Destroying the brain (all of it, not only a part) make him useless until he gets regenerated. The only whey to destroy a vampire body in Jojo is Hammon, UVR, consuming or transmutation of ALL part of his body at the same time.

Also yes they could be killed by destroying the brain, beyond Dio out and out stating it to be the case, that was a big thing regarding the Pillarmen that any non-sun based attack like Hamon or just the sun wouldn't manage to kill them, even reducing them to tiny pieces, and most importantly Jotaro managed to properly kill him without the sun or Hamon at the end of part 3, they just put his remains in the Sun to make sure he couldn't come back catastrophic damage can still kill Stone Mask Vamps.

I'm glad that they addressed exactly how Alucard can be killed considering his "immortality" has been greatly misunderstood within the VS community for a long time. What I don't like is that they didn't mention that destroying Dio's head would kill him. They explained how to get around Alucard's regeneration but didn't do the same for Dio. Kinda made it seem like Alucard stood absolutely no chance which I greatly disagree with. Besides that, it's a damn near perfect episode. 9.5/10 from me too.

@Filip Medak Every zombie, vampire and Pillar Man in JoJo died from ultimately having their brain destroyed. That's the reason Dio tried to save his head from melting and why Esidisi did the same with his brain. Straizo survived because his head was blown into pretty sizable chunks which could be pulled back together but even Alucard's Jackal is capable of completely liquefying his opponent's head, as seen when he shot Anderson in the face. On the other hand, there is no other example of a character dying because their "Stand was destroyed". The World's head got obliterated which did the same to Dio, killing him... sorta, I mean, they still had to melt his body to be sure. Point is, he couldn't regenerate from that so he was effectively dead. Edit: Oh, and Dio didn't get melted by the fire. We clearly see him later with a charred yet full body in the rubble. The "melting" was just a storytelling thing to make us think that Dio actually died.

They didn't seem to be in any rush to melt him, and he didn't regenerate at all in the at least an hour it took them to drive into the desert and wait for the Sun to rise. We've never seen a vampire or even a Pillar Man straight up regrow a body part, they only reattached them. So, by all accounts, Dio couldn't have regrown his head unless someone dumped a crap ton of blood into him, I guess. Besides, even if he could regrow his head, at that point, Alucard could just drink his blood, absorb his soul and destroy it. Or leave him there for a couple hours until the Sun rose like Jotaro and Joseph did. So, in the end, he's just waiting to die once his head's destroyed.

This fight sort of invokes the feeling of a video game final boss battle for me. DIO, the main protagonist, against Alucard, the insane demonic final boss monster. Throughout the whole battle DIO with his relatively simple moveset has to be on guard at all times to deal with the absolute insanity of what Alucard can do. Meanwhile Alucard is just having fun trying to dominate DIO, constantly stepping up his game to overwhelm him. Yet despite this constant pressure, DIO never once gets truly out matched, momentarily overwhelmed, but never enough to make him falter. Consistently pushing through and adapting until finally he is the one to take control and take the final blow.

It kind of had to be this way. Dio lost the dbx fight so it would have been kind of a waste of time to have the same outcome, even though the dbx outcome was more realistic imo. Alucard never really had to go level zero. He never used it against any of the other vampires he fought in Hellsing until the end, and I think he would have regarded Dio as just another one of those fodder vampires, not worth going zero against. In a war of attrition Alucard would have won, after all Dio got killed by just a simple hit from Jotaro in the end of Stardust Crusaders, not even a haki infused hit or anything special, so why wouldn't simple damage from Alucard eventually kill him? But like I said, it had to be this way.

The next argument I have against this fight was that wiz said that even with Alucards soul based regeneration, Dio could have killed him 3 million times in quick succession. I think that statement is pretty farfetched. That would mean that if he killed Alucard one time every second, then (according to the math: 3,000,000 ÷ 60(seconds per minute)÷ 60(minutes per hour) ÷24(hours per day)) it would have taken him 34.7 days to do so. I don't know if it's ever been stated, but I don't think Dio is just completely immune from exhaustion, so him literally killing Alucard over and over for 34 days straight sounds pretty unlikely. Plus he'd have to stop every time the sun came out. That being said, had Alucard not gone Zero right away, Dio would have eventually succumbed to his wounds or sunlight and died.

@@Kiko_mirai just wanna throw in my 2 cents. 1) His powers arent locked off at all. As a matter of fact, we see him use a ton of his vampiric abilities. Super strength, flesh buds, regeneration. its odd to believe that theres a difference between flesh buds and space ripper stingy eyes when they're made up of the same thing, that being his own DNA. its more reasonable to believe that his powers are just weakened, not locked off entirely, which might be one of the reasons why he didnt use them. 2) He didnt see a reason to use his vampiric abilities against Jotaro since he didnt see Jotaro as that much of a threat and the last thing he'd want to do is expel his bodily fluids on someone he doesnt need to use his vampiric abilities on. No, the vampiric abilities would not have helped. SRSE would be blocked just like the knives and the freezing ability requires for him to touch Jotaro directly. not his stand. He likely wouldnt want to stop time and freeze Jotaro considering the fact that he didnt want to get close to Jotaro until after he sucked Josephs blood and after he did that, he was so full of himself that he likely saw Jotaro as nothing more than an annoyance and completely underestimated him. DB didnt break continuity with having him have both his stand and his vampiric abilities, although they should have weakened SRSE quite a bit but that wouldnt have mattered much anyway even if they nerfed it

This episode was good enough to get me to watch Hellsing Ultimate. I saw Abridged a few years back but later on I had it just in the background. Funny thing is before I saw it, I assumed from how people responded that they got the conclusion wrong, but now that I've seen both I can absolutely understand where it's coming from. Nothing that the restrictions before zero can really do to DIO to put him down, and entering Level Zero inherently makes Alucard more vulnerable though with a massive power projection. The advantage therein being that a massive wall of dead people and blood should keep most reasonable people away, but considering DIO's stats and beyond that just the fact he can bypass having to deal with it by using timestop really negates that advantage. Plus, as they said in the post analysis, the Space Ripper Stingy Eyes or whatever the fuck could effectively deal with most of them really quickly, especially if used horizontally on ground level. I know this video isn't really a who would win analysis of the fight just kinda wanted to say how it was good enough to make me watch the series I hadn't actually seen and then appreciate it more.

10:00 you missed this, (most likely not fully knowing stuff of Jojo but) it's actually kinda cool and and faithful to the series showing Dio powering up from absorbing the blood flood (bars)

Tbh I can’t believe you didn’t point out how in the first shot it shows the world winding up with his right arm but on the zoom out it’s his left . Still for me 11/10 episode since it’s my favourite death battle and it’ll be for a while
