Yooooo! So happy you liked the hand drawn stuff. I wanted to redeem myself after Mob vs Tatsumaki. And yes I did the transformation through memory and worked from my storyboards. Due to lack of time, I wish I could have added more frames for the in-betweens but I can see it still came out really well. Also I enjoy you and your friends reactions, can't wait to see what you think of the rest of the season.

[@fanman6568]

To be honest Kamui’s didn’t really bother me that much. Maybe because of two reasons, one they explain a reason on how they work, and two the show is just so fun to watch that I don’t even care about the fan service. By the way I think ryuko he’s one of my favorite female characters of all time. kill la kill just has something really special to it that no other anime show I seen have. I don’t know why but I feels like there’s gonna be some kind of announcement for a season two, sooner or later.

[@eddygarcia3503]

I have an idea. Maybe to fix Lex VS Doom, maybe have the video be a slideshow instead? Could that work?

Not sure, but the video is already uploaded, I'm just waiting for the block to be lifted at this point.

[@roboticminer8843]

I feel like the season 8 preview showed us the first 6 episodes since we got the first 3 reveals in order so far.

[@marvelfantasy472]

I personally don't think so, Cloud matchup is most likely up against Link which is probably episode 150 which is episode 11 of Season 8 and I don't think the Attack on Titan fight will happen until the second half of season 8 so that they have enough time to analyze the last couple of chapters of the manga just incase there is a game changer.

[@conmanay4563]

People may make fun of Mewtwo Vs Shadow but it’s accurate because of mental hax, more importantly though Mega Mewtwo Y scales above even super shadow massively. Mega Mewtwo X stalemated a bloodlusted Zygarde who in turn was wearing down and would’ve defeated Ultra Necrozma who is a solar system buster at minimum and more likely multi-galactic to Universe level depending on the size of Ultra space and is massively faster than light when scaling to Solgaelo and Lunala Sure Mewtwo stalemated 50% Zygarde but even 50% of Ultra Necrozma would annihilate shadow

[@Redrunner613]

What’s your thoughts on the complete stomp fest that is Lex vs Doom?

[@supersmallchibiwolf872]

If you go to the Death Battle and the time period of 18:05 They say If Sonic could do it then Shadow can do it ? Because using this logic if one character can do it then the others can doesn't make sense because they are two different characters. With this logic wouldn't most of the Final Fantasy characters be considered broken power level characters because if you look back at Sephiroth vs Virgil they say Sephiroth is op then Tifa loses and they don't even show her full capability or even bring up all of her feats. Supernova is how he wins Tifa survived it. It seems like a bad excuse. Saying Sonic feats and using it to defend Shadow seems like they are desperately looking for a reason. I would have loved both Ryuko and Shadow to fight other characters and once again it seems Death Battle is weird a little. I like to rewatch flights and reactions and I caught this point on my 2nd viewing. What's your opinion on that ? Also there are a lot of debatable things using the logic of if one character can do it then the other character can. Next time on Death Battle could have been better hopefully they get better later this season. I hope Ryuko comes back in the future I would like to see Ryuko vs Akame from Akame Ga Kill. ^_^

[@Redrunner613]

I think they've just updated the show's logic. Cloud is going to appear later in this season, so we can test that theory, but I believe Cloud and company do scale to a lot of Sephiroth's feats.

[@supersmallchibiwolf872]

@@Redrunner613 I think everyone knows that Tifa was used the worst in all of Death Battle yeah some might say Ichigo or Shadow when he fought Vegeta I heard people debate that back in the day a lot and other death battles but Tifa from the the start was always crazy Over powered. I can't wait to see if they will actually make Cloud fight someone other than Link. It's probably going to be Link but we will have to wait to see. ^_^

[@justinalicea1590]

Tifa fought Yang before Sephiroth fought Vergil. It is explicitly because of them having to research Sephiroth that they finally considered the Supernova to be the real deal, and so in Death Battle Casts say that a redo of Tifa vs Yang would end with Tifa's victory. So yes, scaling is something they had been open to for quite some time, but still prefer trying to find feats for the characters themselves because they are more definitive, and it can keep "it should have been the characters you're using for scaling instead of the characters you're using" arguments at bay. Something that the cast felt needed to be addressed in their Q&A for Ryu vs Jin.

[@supersmallchibiwolf872]

@@justinalicea1590 It's just another example of Death Battle's awful research that's all.

[@justinalicea1590]

@@supersmallchibiwolf872 Yeah, several seasons ago when they were still transitioning between their old rules and new rules, the research team was becoming better, and again, favoring a character's own feats over another's. If Sephiroth magically didn't exist, or if there was proof that Tifa wasn't there for the battle with Sephiroth, then the battle wouldn't be different for Tifa.
