Y'know its funny. I tend to get upset at people for not being aware of things that I find standard knowledge. (Mostly stuff like fictional characters and there worlds) But despite that, you always feel so genuine whenever you watch stuff. It really feels that while you might not know who the fighters are, you are REALLY happy and excited to learn about them. Guess you just have a hell of a lot of charisma!

[@beniciobonilla2271]

Hey! Its you! I like your react let's watch vids!

[@enkerzan3755]

...Charisma? I think you mean Enthusiasm maybe? lol

[@RikThunder33]

Enker Zan no he's right ^^ he is kinda charismatic : D a nice and fun guy to watch : )

[@rowdeebailey8561]

I Get It A *Hell* Of Lot Of Charisma

[@nyrdlafernandez5747]

I'ma say this once, INDESTRUCTIBLE

[@thelivingliver6715]

When they went to hell I was just IMPATIENTLY waiting for Scorpion to shove Ryu's head in the lava.

[@duncanmcokiner4242]

"You only stopped succumbing to evil because you were losing with it." I don't know why, but I find that line hilarious.

[@hmalba7864]

17:35 THANK YOU, SOMEONE ELSE finally notices! I thought I was the only one who noticed that...

[@theraginginfernape9496]

+Dan The Gengar Are u friends with GenkyGengar

[@josephsalisbury66]

I love rewatching them with you. You are just fun and happy and I love it.

[@josephsalisbury66]

And you are a nice person.

[@Minleyx1]

I nearly laughed out a lung when I saw that Scorpion was still active as a skeleton XD

[@josuelrobles6612]

I also laughed when he turned to a penguin after his victory 🤣

[@rafaelfernandez6626]

"he became ghost rider" nearly made me spit my drink! XD

[@RedRobeNinja]

i watched this episode before watching it here. its so much more fun to watch it WITH someone. you said everything i was thinking so thanks for everything mate. i love watching vids with you. :)

[@AkumaTh]

You know, I think we're the reason Ryu lost. Because while he did say he was going to use Evil Ryu, we've pushed for him to have the Power of Nothingness. If he stood in the Evil Ryu state he would have probably won. Oh well. The next match is going to be fun. Because it would show how dark the Kirby series really is.

[@Ris_Grestar]

AkumaTh1 You monster. haha I'm glad both forms were included! If they weren't, people would have complained about him not using both. (People are always going to complain about something, right? C'est la vie.)

[@monkeycaboose6872]

well the battle is decided before they even make it, the battle is just a simulation.

[@AkumaTh]

monkeycaboose Yes, though this was during the research phase. Evil Ryu was definitely something that was going to be included. And with no outside help, he would have stood indefinitely in it.

[@TonyDGunner]

power of nothingness has never been shown in a cannon state for ryu

[@AkumaTh]

anthony gonzalez Neither has Evil Ryu. Only as a what if character when it comes to games. Movies, both Evil Ryu and Power of Nothingness has been shown in the SF4 movie. Too boot, there is strong evidence that Ryu can access it. First, a SF4 ending has Gouken sealing up the Satsui No Hado in Ryu. And in SF3 (which takes place after SF4), Ryu doesn't seem to worry about succumbing to it. Also remember that Akuma doesn't chase after Ryu in SF3. That is because in an ending in SF4, he faces Gouken for the right to "the pup". With Akuma not going after Ryu, it seems he lost that fight. Add to the fact Ryu acts more like Gouken in SF3, and the possibility is there.

[@enkerzan3755]

I found this fight kind of hard to believe, but I guess this goes to show that MK characters really do get hammered by metric tons of plot induced stupidity... And about that next fight coming up, If Kirby wins that fight, I am going to rage. Because there is no way in hell that little pink beach ball can stand up against Majin Buu.

[@enkerzan3755]

>:@

[@enkerzan3755]

Oh I totally agree with you there. Cloud vs Link, Zelda vs Peach, Doomguy vs Master Chief. *COUGH*

[@S3rp3nte]

Enker Zan Yeah, already with Goku vs Superman they said a bunch of bullshits about the saiyan, i will not surprise if they did the same with Majin Buu.

[@S3rp3nte]

Flaviu Val I personally believe that the Death Battle has never been so different from the Deadliest Warrior from the beginning. Read especially the comments of Shinji Ikari: lounge.moviecodec.com/vs-general/what-death-battles-were-inaccurate-and-which-opponents-should-have-won-326358/

[@TheDevilFox.]

I kinf of agreed with you if in the next Death Battle happens like Buu tries transforme him in a chocolate then Kirby use that attack against him and win I ill get really pissed of

[@trevorghelfi]

I always love seeing your reaction of Death Battle,cause through the information of both combatments,it lets us know who would win

[@spiritmint5929]

Just got out of bed and checked KZbin. Glad I did!

[@crustyrage4008]

Kinda unrelated, but you need to watch the assassins fist series on machinima. It tells the story of Ryu and Ken a bit and is badass

[@michaelwang866]

Yay! They are going to hell! That sounded dark

[@hsaungaye9662]

as always great video

[@Diggindimonds08]

Holy crap I did not know it was out! I'm gonna watch it now!

[@300IQPrower]

I'm rooting for Scorpion, I a month ago got MK9 Komplete Edition, and he's my main along with Johnny Cage

[@gxstly]

Kirby not only copies abilities, but he also enhances those abilities into other type of stuff. Like Fighter, he can use a mini Hadoken, but the enemy that he sucks to do that can't. IF he sucks up buu, (And i know this is bias) he would Turn that Chocalate move into like a Punching CHocalate move. You never know....The creativity is real. XD

[@RikThunder33]

the switch from "totally agressive and bad" and "nothingness and purity" does makes sense. it's all about how you feel in the moment and if you manage to let go of everything that makes you being selfdestructive in an instant..that deserves great respect

[@Ris_Grestar]

Rik Thunder It probably would've made more sense had I played as Ryu in his games or seen the show. You know, if I'd been there for the character development.

[@RikThunder33]

yeah, I know what you mean. I myself have only secondhand-knowledge about him but I know very similar phenomenons

[@deadpoolguy8963]

"Yay they're going to hell!" I never seen seen someone that happy

[@quickninja1041]

Wait, for the next episode, will it be fat buu, super buu, kid buu, super buu gohan absorbed, Gotenks, piccolo absorbed? It'll probably be fat buu because all the other forms would DESTROY Kirby. But still, if buu loses, I officially will not trust death battle.

[@AlonzoTompkins]

So essentially, if a character you don't think has the feats needed to beat a DBZ character has the feats needed to beat one, you would get butt hurt about it? That's cute.

[@LeonGamingTV]

Doesn't seem biased at all..

[@VideoGameLedgen]

Unles he eats one of his moves in which Kirby could destroy him. Got the copy ability is so op

[@quickninja1041]

Alonzo Tompkins No, if a character I hate, yes, I hate buu, loses to someone like kirby, I won't trust them. You could have your own opinions, but I just think that buu would just say "You look like buu, let me eat you!" Before Kirby could do anything.

[@AlonzoTompkins]

GokuPlaysGames So you have no idea of what feats Kirby can do and you overestimate DBZ characters like every other DBZ fan ever that don't understand how shows like Death Battle and debate forums, like the OBD and Fact Pile, work. I'm not saying Kirby will win. I'm just calling you out on stupid bullshit. And i'm also saying that Kirby wont lose that easily.

[@180223]

I can already forsee all the butthurt from the Street Fighter fanboys when this gets uploaded on Screwattack's main channel.

[@180223]

SpongeBob SquarePants I wish.

[@emperorfrost3183]

Well I'm a street fighter fan boy an I've accepted the end result. It sucked watching my favorite character (Besides Jack Cayman) get killed.

[@bumblebee9736]

Darren180223 Are MK fanboys somehow better (fan (not ~boy) of both, so FLAME SHIELD RAISED !!!) ?

[@emperorfrost3183]

Flaviu Val NERD RAGE!!! XDXD

[@gxstly]

SpongeBob SquarePants OMG SPONGEBOB CURSED!

[@Spark31Gaming]

Was that music at the beginning a remixed steel samurai from pheonix wright?!

[@carolynfrancis5375]

I almost died at the "Diarrhea Joke Foot" bit.

[@angryduck5]

I found the outcome of this a little fishy. if scorpion can teleport from the one move that would kill him everytime why wouldnt we say ryu speed (which can dodge bullets in normal mode and would be enhanced with the power of nothingness) will avoid all of scorpions attacks. If ryu is so fast wouldn't it make sense that he could get scorpion with the raging demon at least once?

[@cianmulrooney2272]

Ryu dodging bullets is a reaction feat, not a speed feat. He can AVOID them, but he can't move AS FAST as them. It's like, you could outrun Robocop really easily, but are you able to catch a bullet straight out of the air?

[@angryduck5]

but couldn't we still say ryu reacts to every singly scorpion attack and dodges it perfectly?

[@cianmulrooney2272]

He has the reaction speed, sure, but that doesn't mean he's going to dodge every last attack Scorpion throws at him. Yes, it's entirely possible that he could, but Scorpion would probably take the fight to the Netherrealm at some point, which would not only power him up but also weaken Ryu, eventually to the point where he'd be incapable of dodging or attacking.

[@angryduck5]

you're right when you say "its entirely possible" that ryu could could dodge all of scorpions attacks, but i can assume you are saying its a little unfair to suppose he would dodge every attack. if that's what you are saying then sure i'm with you so far, but isn't it equally unfair to assume that scorpion would have the reaction speed to teleport away from every raging demon attack? Also i'm not sure where we established that ryu is weakened by the netherrealm

[@cianmulrooney2272]

Daniel Witten No, no, I'm not saying it's unfair. Ryu has a bullet timer feat, Scorpion doesn't. BUT, like I said, he can dodge a bullet, but he can't move nearly as fast as one, not to mention Ryu doesn't have that much experience using the Raging Demon, so the chances he could still hit it are still rather slim. As for where it's established that Ryu weakens in the Netherrealm, if you pause the video at about 10:02, Scorpion clearly says that his strength rises in the Netherrealm while his opponents' fades.

[@ASR-Ansori]

Okay, if Majin Buu dies against Kirby I'm done with Death Battle.

[@Ami_GP]

Biased ;)

[@pokeperson1000]

extremely biased

[@vincentlin669]

Butthurt Biased :D

[@Ami_GP]

Yeah That kind :D

[@futuregamer24]

you don't know anything about kirby do you?

[@chicomehdi7360]

Really funny and chill dude!

[@gamerdash4955]

Love ur vids ^_^ and ur commentary inspired mine

[@lauramccartney9081]

Haduken for Ryu GET OVER HERE for Scorpion

[@christianr.c3041]

hadouken!

[@rayvenzhook2843]

GET OVER HERE!

[@thegreatpapyrus]

GET OVER HERE

[@grandmasterblueberryice4882]

GET OVER HERE!!!!!

[@asnake9092]

Laura McCartney GET OVER HERE

[@KINGD353]

so.... is it kid buu or fat buu?

[@mayborneflower]

***** Actually Fat Buu is the stronger and more durable of the two, Kid Buu just happens to be so ferocious and destructive that he's the much more dangerous of the two in terms of actual combat ability compared to his more docile counterpart.

[@Ris_Grestar]

KINGD353 I'm just amused at this point that his name is either "Fat" or "Kid."

[@mayborneflower]

His name is Majinn Buu. He just has multiple forms, with the two most famous being his trademark Fat and original Kid selves.

[@mayborneflower]

... being the most famous, apparently

[@WebOnion]

It's probably Kid Buu, since that was his original form, before absorbing all the Kais.

[@drakegeer-timmins6780]

Does anyone know the name of the song thats playing when ryu and scorpion are fighting on earth!?

[@soundwave5634]

Any time I watch one of these all I can think is that I want your headphones.

[@pigzarkewl]

Kirby vs majin Buu? That....seems....odd.....

[@EyeOfArgus]

both fat pink demons, yes Kirby is a demon and you I will not allow you to prove me wrong

[@cooltut8475]

***** I dont think Kirby will be winning this one..

[@EyeOfArgus]

Cool Tut well obviously

[@EyeOfArgus]

***** just play smash bros

[@Pokemonfan612]

***** or go watch fatal fiction and wait for their newest battle.

[@LEIONEEL]

the next battle i think kirby is going to win, i mean he can suck almost everything that isn't a lot larger then him and even if he can't suck buu kirby ALWAYS finds that fruit when he needs it and then he can suck everything

[@LEIONEEL]

well i don't know anything of dragon ball Z but i'm not saying all the characters are bad its just my opinion can he really copy any ability sounds cool, but near immortality is not gonna stop him from getting sucked don't hate me i'm just saying my opinion

[@Ris_Grestar]

***** Just read this and am now popping in. Is he near-immortal or near-invincible? Because those are two very different things.

[@kvbantique49]

***** ok, here. Majin buu survived an attack from goku ssj 3. Fat buu isnt as destructive as kid buu, but is basically invincible. The only time he lost was to an evil version of himself. Just regular fat buu. But kid buu, like I said, is SO destructive and ruthless that goku SSJ3 wouldve lost, because he needed a LOT of help to beat kid buu, whom is much more powerful than ssj3. The only character in dbz (not gt, it isnt canon) that is more powerful than him is vegito, who is a fusion of goku and vegeta from use of potara earrings. Kid Buu would easily defeat kirby, for he has much more stamina and so destructive, he blew up the earth ( which came back cause of dragon balls which can grant any wish). Even majin buu has a huge chance. Any one who can survive ssj 3 can beat kirby.

[@kvbantique49]

Mama Bear Senidal and yes, hes near invincible.

[@kvbantique49]

Mama Bear Senidal and majin buu and fat buu are the same thing if youre confused.

[@Minleyx1]

I tried watching this in their site. But the video kinda runs slow there. So I must thank Ris for always keeping up. Good man :)

[@corbinjaye5324]

Ris needs way more than 69k subs. I have been watching him since i was 9...I’m 15 now.

[@ashcash1280]

Scorpion won because it was posted on Halloween and he is a skeleton. #spookyscaryskeletons #illuminaticonfirmed

[@deadmandapper]

[@jessician4822]

#noonefuckingcares

[@ashcash1280]

***** It was a joke

[@ashcash1280]

Vindex 'Twas sarcasm

[@rodrickseto2982]

How is this possible For me it says the deathbattle came out on November 1st

[@yugiohexodiusmk9]

I love the battle as well. And I think I felt like dancing at the ending of the video

[@JaruJaruJ]

Great video! The music was a tad loud during your pre-fight analysis though, which made it hard to hear you. Just a heads up. Super pumped for the Kirby fight!

[@Ris_Grestar]

JaruJaruJ haha I apologize for that. I recently changed my setup a little bit, which means I have to find the right audio balance again. I'll try to be better in the future :P

[@JaruJaruJ]

No worries. :D

[@JaelinBezel]

I am excited for the next DEATH BATTLE

[@ktk8025]

What's funny about Street Fighter is there's another incredibly popular franchise that's basically a mirror image called "Killer Instinct". Even Jago is a clone of Ryu, he says in the outro "Your path ends here" as a reference to Ryu lol

[@95onimusha]

well killer instinct reminds me more of mk xD

[@Fang1st]

I decided to watch this first with you, you have pretty a good analysis about these things and I don't know much about the other characters themselves. But the most important thing? KIIIRRRRBBBBBYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!

[@inakamoto]

Great commentary. Yeah, I was kind of leaning towards Scorpion in this fight, mostly because of my personal beliefs of ninjas having a one-up against karate fighters. I like how the battle played out, it was really fun to watch. Looking forward to your next DB commentary.

[@sonicbrony-sg2qc]

ris can you tell me what you think it would be a honor

[@arrogantschmuck9593]

I loved the result of this Death Battle so much! Yay for Scorpion! Also the guy from DBZ fighting Kirby is Majin Buu, I believe.

[@yfa13]

He doesn't put it on a rope anymore he puts his Kunai on the chain now

[@steirabua861]

"yaaay,they're going to hell!"-Ris Grestar 2014

[@Brasc]

I remember when this match was announced as a Next Time. I, and a lot of other people, were expecting them to pit Ryu against Liu Kang, the two poster boy protagonists for the rival fighting game series. I'm hoping they'll do that match at some point in the future, which is made more interesting by the further developments of the two characters since this match.

[@IleMaster1]

Ris, hope you can do a Let's Watch of Metal Gear Solid V trailer (Red Band trailer). Would be really great :)

[@jordydeleon7668]

I noticed whenever you tell someone to teleport they never teleport.

[@Soulpoint_]

Of all my life, you ris, are the first person I've ever heard say: yay they're going to hell!

[@Sargotha]

Another one you may want to do a Let's Watch with is One Minute Melee that ScrewAttack is uploading between Death Battles.

[@kristianperez4108]

great video ris ! i honestly thought ryu was going to win, mainly because he could destroy a skyscraper with his hadouken, as for the next battle, i want to say buu will win, but i do not know much about kirby to make that decision, i am interestd in which buu they wil use, will they use fat buu, super buu, etc ?

[@cybercase_7807]

I love how nice this guy is Sorry I’m new here

[@paigemarshall3056]

Fyi(for your information)The next death battle after the keriby one is deadpool vs deaths toke deadbattle will be on December 12

[@BonelessFolka]

that reaction at the end though

[@JavelinAngel1295]

What did Scorpion say at the end? It sounded like he said "I will crush your toes!"

[@Ris_Grestar]

TreystaFXATARIEN Well, if that's anything like stubbing toes, it must be awful.

[@linkinator777]

He said "I will crush your bones"

[@patrickcappuccio6298]

Who do you think would win? Scott Pilgrim vs Viewful joe

[@RedRobeNinja]

"YAY, THEY ARE GOING TO HELL!!" never thought id hear that said so happily.

[@brianmagana8206]

All I want in the next death battle is to see Kirby with his fighter power up going at it with buy in true dragon ball z fashion

[@rsmallz1272]

What was that song!!!?

[@DeuceOfSin]

That was an awesome death battle! Was rooting for Ryu but the analysis sure proved me wrong :p!

[@Vexor1011]

Buu vs. Kirby? Oh....Yes!

[@Spark31Gaming]

Wait. It came out NOV 1. Du crap did you watch it?

[@07Brabbit]

I really.like your videos ris grestar

[@JacobJakkerz]

Wait I thought that have Ryu a energy boost? Why did he only shoot one had ikon

[@shanamcdonald8238]

awesome

[@DukeofGames50]

the cooking show with Scorpion is a skit the staff behind Mortal Kombat came up with i believe. it's an extra in the MK 5 game.

[@daleketchup7434]

From now on, whenever I'm doing a side kick, I'm yelling out "AND DIARRHEA JOKE FOOT!!!"

[@Ahturos]

I don´t understand people who get angry over this fight. They basically said if Ruy fought Scorpion outside the neatherrealm he could have won or if IF he got him with the insteant kill evil move. Oh well I whould´t be suprised if Kirby manage to eat up Buu in the next battle. I wonder which buu. Kid or fat.

[@TheOrangeDiamond]

15:04 what is that music

[@RikThunder33]

"Yeeeaay, they're going to hell! : DD" wow that sounded really insane xD but I know what you intended ^^ hehe

[@felixsfreg8804]

Hey ris can you react to pokemon in real life by smosh ( i know your watching starter squad but there a little short not to mencion theres just like 2 episodes left not a request just and idea c:) Sorry for the grammer

[@cookiemonster8220]

I love when he does death battle reaction

[@dylanaroberts97]

DAMMIT! For a second I thought the next Death Battle would feature the Hulk.

[@RikThunder33]

btw, not sure how long it's been but: nice haircut : D

[@Ris_Grestar]

Rik Thunder Thank you :)

[@Scorpionspear77]

YES!

[@dillinweeks7582]

I predicted Scorpion would win, even if I did silently hope Ryu would win. It was a closer fight than many MK fans would let you believe though. Ryu was far from defenseless. I however do prefer Street Fighter. This was a great battle, really enjoyed it. Cant wait to see the next one and rooting for Kirby!

[@junloja4811]

Well ris, my 1st thoughts about scorpion and ryu were hadoken and well..... get over here!

[@ninjawarriorfighter5585]

You should really get the games you want to play it they are awesome

[@cleanpiss]

No HD?

[@WebOnion]

Kirby vs Majin Buu, huh. That's gonna be hilarious.

[@timmypett7360]

"You stopped succumbing to evil cause you were losing with it!" xD

[@geekdonYT]

Hi how ya doing

[@An3hony]

***** Y U NO LEAN TOWARDS RAYU??? Also, if you played any of the games for both, would your opinion be different. Plz, answer both.

[@Ris_Grestar]

Anthony Simpson 1) I didn't think Ryu would win. 2) I don't know, I haven't played the games.

[@DeereBorgGaming]

people are saying that kirby will just suck up buu and take his power and beat him with it well anyone think that when kirby sucks in buu is the perfect time for buu to use his turn people into chocolate power when there would be no way to dodge it?

[@tgppg6111]

Man, i wanted Ryu to win

[@cody890Gaming]

Kirby vs Mocha Boo? Right is that how it's spelled?

[@XxZackAttack27xX]

Seeing peoples reactions to Ryu vs Scorp makes me happy. Whether they're positive or negative.

[@perspectivedetective]

It's too bad Ryu didn't keep some obsidian blocks on him. Then he could have gotten back from the Nether.

[@xiflheim]

+perspectivedetective LOL DAT MINECRAFT REFERENCE

[@ThorG-mg2yx]

Did you watch the MK Movie yet?

[@tre061600]

OMFG KIRBY VS MAJIN BUU THIS IS GONNA BE AMMMZZZINNGGGGGGGGG

[@djjimibradiostationexp3088]

the "fighting tuffer dudes" that was enugh huh

[@coreyjames4676]

cool ris

[@deandreabyoye1122]

I shall subscribe

[@Fatal25k]

Kirby vs Majin Buu next! Damn

[@JavelinAngel1295]

I told all you guys before that Evil Ryu won't make a difference against Scorpion and Final Bison didn't do shit against Shao Kahn so what makes you think Evil Ryu will be any better?

[@Underworlder5]

i swear the only reason i watched this was to see his reaction to the "diarrhea joke foot" thing

[@hectordubon3487]

Kirby versus Majin Buu huh? I'm intrigued
