            • 06:30 - 07:00 get that started let's show that off I'm here to learn learn give it everything we've got I'll destroy any hope you had of defeating junko and I'll do it in style first of all if you want to defeat junko you have to get past Monokuma this little bear may seem harmless but he's actually capable of going toe-to-toe with some of the strongest people on the planet and the normal humans of dang and roma get up to some insane [ __ ] like cutting buildings in half this is way
            • 07:00 - 07:30 better than anything springtrap Rusty ass has ever done and it applies to a single Monokuma and junko has an entire Army of them of course junko herself is also incredibly resilient to pain and is way smarter than afon who has been manipulated into traps in the past she could easily set him up for a punishment that wouldn't just destroy him but destroy his Remnant as well there's no coming back from that I'd love to see you try to win though you'll just be in that much more to spare when you realize
            • 07:30 - 08:00 you can't the eyes yes the crazy eyes that's something junko does the crazy swirly eyes how toally coming out of the gate swinging and for our to argue for um our FNAF character first one we've talked about in death pedal cast we have a special guest Matt Pat come on out Matt Pat it's just a veryy oh my God happened to him
            • 08:00 - 08:30 from YouTube Forever think goes permanently geez oh my God there's a skeleton it's over no uh John let's let's talk a little bit about spring trp who is spring trap how is he gonna win this okay let's go spring trp aka William Apton and firstly known as Purple Guy I'll be soft comping The Man Behind the slaughter with the games Lauren books to Define his powers and abilities springtrap has Superior size stamina and holds substances is called Remnant and Agony that gives him a
            • 08:30 - 09:00 myriad of abilities junko has no answers to like Soul hacks immortality warping her perception of reality his Agony form increases his size and Power by absorbing metal around him if burn slap burn trap SLG glitch trap is accepted her greatest assets to Monokuma become her downfall he has an ability to infect perfect sentient AI with and electronics with a very powerful virus even if she managed to destroy spring trapped body Aton can just will his soul to stay into the Mortal plane and possess monokumas to keep on fighting or just possess
            • 09:00 - 09:30 junko herself doesn't matter how many times junko kills Afton he always comes back I knew you were gonna say that I knew H this is the game where the Tucky cheese monsters kill people right yes and you were talking about like immortality and all right dude how many how many FNAF games are there at this point there's so freaking many there is definitely over there's definitely up to
            • 09:30 - 10:00 10 over there's definitely over 10 especially with it depends on what you count as because there's the most recent game that came out called into the pit which is the adaptation of one of the books uh which is also can to the timeline but not like part of the overall arcing timeline or maybe it is there are three games coming out just next year five laps at Freddy's Five Nights at Freddy of the mimic Five Nights at Freddy's survival crew all right the hell real quick leely thanks for gifting out five memberships uh we had a couple things come through uh
            • 10:00 - 10:30 gilded data and lugie thank you so much for the super chats we appreciate it y'all thanks I know I I see in the chat I really need to explain something about burn trap and glitch trap because people are just gonna keep harking on the fact that he is an Afton but there is some arguments so you're gonna need to explain a lot about a lot know what those are so what is burn trap and glitch trap just generally so before some books came out bringing in a new antagonist called the mimic for the longest time we we thought William Apton
            • 10:30 - 11:00 had his soul possessing part of an parts of circuitry of the animatronics and they scanned those circuit trees into the systems and then we thought glitch trap was William Aton soul in like a digital space and then he manipulated vany did all the sort of stuff and got into a new body being burn trapped and then that was defeated and yada y y what people now are saying is that no no burn trap and glit Traer not William Aton but in fact the mimic because the books
            • 11:00 - 11:30 reveal that in uh T Tiger rock which is inside this giant tree that was in the books in the mega PE sulex that was the thing that was manipulating and T changing all the animatronics into turning him crazy and not the uh William apam itself like William Aton is far is dead is in purgatory and with the one you should not have killed and nothing but there is but the problem is that's only if you take the books into like oneto one with the games and if you only take the games into account you just see
            • 11:30 - 12:00 the mimic as the mimic it just happens to be this thing that showed up in ruin so the only way to justify it is by using the books but to also use the books means that you have to use everything the books has explained for Remnant and Agony and personally speaking I don't believe after needs Glitz trap and burn trap to win this fight it just would make it easier if he did and I personally believe there is speculation on both sides to believe that it is William Aton that William Aton just possessed the mimic as a host body and when glitch trap was was killed and helped wanted to uh the mimic got
            • 12:00 - 12:30 his own sentience back there is so many things the whole thing about FNAF is that Canon and FNAF don't really dance well together no no no so it's very hard to Simply say oh no it's not William even though it was proven even though the first trailer the security breach basically had William talk to bny like it was supposed to be like oh when I first found you you were nothing you were significant I'm like why would the MTH be saying stuff like that all right let's okay for the big thing there for me was wait FNAF
            • 12:30 - 13:00 has books oh yes so many book I looked it up there are 23 books yeah so wow there's a lot more going on here than even I expected okay like well no he's in purgatory but then something about Tiger rock in the tree in the pizza place but then like yeah so let's let's let's let's back it up just a little bit and and talk about William Aton and how springtrap came to be like William Aton is it's the Matthew Lillard
            • 13:00 - 13:30 character in the movie right yeah that's William Aton yeah so who the hell is William Aton and what does he have to do with springtrap let's William Aton is the person who murdered five children in the missing child's no yeah the missing child's incident and those children later after some lots of convolu lots of convolution uh they tricked him to get inside of his suit which was already like ready to be spring locked and then
            • 13:30 - 14:00 those spring locks clamped in on his body and he started to bleed out and was left in the back room to rot he stayed there for 30 years and came back after being retrieved by people from the back room into fast bear Frights and essentially has been trying to continue what he's been doing with his own machinations of killing kids being a uh being a psychopath and stuff like that his whole thing is that William Aton is spring tra because he was he is inside spring trap but if you look at Spring trap's model you see entrails you see like a skeletal SK system he's in there
            • 14:00 - 14:30 and he was burned in fast bear Frights and had to repair himself and then he became scrap trap scrap trap later got burned again in the end of fin 36 but his soul was taken and kept uh from the one you should not have killed AKA Cassidy uh to be in a forever hell Purgatory for all eternity and until the mimic showed up we thought he came back via glitch trap but now people are just like under the impression that it literally has nothing to do with glitch trap even glitch trap and burn trap both
            • 14:30 - 15:00 share the same naming scheme of scrap trap and spring trap but hey it's the mimic he mimics things I guess and he also know his catchphrase even though he shouldn't know his catchphrase okay got it that helped with the mimic stuff a lot yeah yeah okay um so let's let's talk a little bit about junko yeah yeah and and let's not jump Midway into the story for junko so let's talk about like uh because junco U as far as the first game is concerned she's just a regular gal I mean she kind of a crazy G but
            • 15:00 - 15:30 she's just a regular gal right yeah yeah she's just normal and uh she she tries uh to stand up to a [Music] mon and then but like uh after after presumably junko gets killed and impaled multiple times we find out later in a big twist that that was not junko junko was The Mastermind behind the entire thing she was controlling all the Monokuma she set up the de game and has
            • 15:30 - 16:00 in fact destroyed the world and created an entire apocalypse where everyone is feeling horrible horrible Despair and because of her Monokuma robots and death game to just further beat down anybody who has hope left by making all of the uh the the greatest students the ultimate students at Hope's Peak kill each other to survive so that's that's basically what she uh uh what she what she prepared
            • 16:00 - 16:30 what she planned and uh she would have gotten away if it wasn't for Makoto and his meddling hope get getting in the way of everything oh thank you Santana and what's up jel man oh my God and then hey uh jelman and Kindra just gifted a ton of memberships oh and now V leader y'all are going crazy what happened you just getting excited for the matchup all right yeah Dyan oh yeah shout out to anybody by the way who's in chat who came out to the premiere uh weekend it was um uh phenomenal we had a good time
            • 16:30 - 17:00 meeting a lot of people who we've only seen in chat before so um thank you all those of you who could make it to Premiere no worries uh we obviously really appreciate you guys being here and supporting us as we are coming coming back and you know getting death battle back on track um so okay so um junko is this like Mastermind who planned out all of this crazy stuff going on within the world uh I mean at first BL
            • 17:00 - 17:30 like she's like this world terring terrorizing Menace with this like massive uh influence and army of robot Bears or whatever uh and it sounds like springtrap is just some guy who killed a bunch of kids and then got tricked into tricked into a guy and I'm pretty sure one springtrap gets his ass handed to him by a single Monokuma which is bad when you have as many monokumas as I do I have an exact number if we can get to it real quick cuz it was stated okay it
            • 17:30 - 18:00 was stated how many monokumas there are there are a nav dilion which is one followed by 60 zeros a huge amount of monokumas yeah there we go there we go there's the quote there's a there's there's that many like one follow with 60 zeros this guy this one guy can annihilate springtrap and there's so many so I don't care care if spring draft can possess one of them they're
            • 18:00 - 18:30 all to annihilate it well yeah I'm curious about that because that's what he does right his soul can possess technology yeah yeah okay so let's let's talk about what the the machines can do then so let's start with Monokuma what what can Monokuma do like why are you saying like he just one of them is enough well Monokuma uh it he was able to contend with one of the strongest people on the planet uh Sakura and uh that should make him like scale above any of the normal humans of dangan Roma and you would thinkk normal humans they
            • 18:30 - 19:00 would just be normal humans but dangan RPA is a very crazy cartoonish universe or humans can cut a building in half with a single slash of their knife and uh someone can take yeah there you go there it is and uh decapitation against the decapitation and this isn't some like I know there are plenty of superhuman people in dongan RPO like this is like their special I'm pretty sure this just a normal person or or like they're not as strong as Sakura at
            • 19:00 - 19:30 least Sakura is stated to be one of the strongest people yeah and uh I think nekomaru takes a [ __ ] so hard that it blasts the wall behind him and starts to destroy a bunch of trees it's like a whole bunch of trees are destroyed because he took a [ __ ] so hard there it is Those Were Trees now it's just those were Tre rine is that a ravine I think The Lorax would be so sad to see this so that's humans can do and that's like
            • 19:30 - 20:00 springtrap can't do that and there just one monuma and like N dilian I don't even know the number that many all ganging up on him he's lot well in the chat says in the chat says wasn't that amount of monokumas just made in a virtual world I was actually about to bring that up I'm also a D fan I'm sitting there like wait wasn't that specifically in the digital Realm
            • 20:00 - 20:30 in in was like one million or so have a number otherwise but there's a lot enough to take over the world so still a lot Max trying some hold look look I didn't expect him to have the answer you know we go into this like saying hey it's up to you guys to rep your character and win by any means necessary right I call you out on your bull
            • 20:30 - 21:00 still plenty well Max you've talked a lot about what humans can do in the world of dongan rmpa but what what is Monokuma what does he do Monokuma is a technologically advanced robot that can uh he mostly relies on just like his claws he's got very deadly claws that can claw the hell lot of people and uh he has sensors that lets him locate people like uh when they're hiding and [ __ ] and he can just sort of pop up anywhere in the at least in the uh the Hope's Peak it's like he'll just pop up out out of nowhere so he can uh move
            • 21:00 - 21:30 around really fast there's a bunch of variations of him too and uh I think it's Ultra despair girls he has like a uh a more buff Monokuma a uh a more feral Monokuma and a ball Monokuma which is just a ball okay and there's a bomber Monokuma but at the end of the day like he just he just fights physically overpowers people yeah physically overpowers and kills them so in in the first game I I have to assume the other dong and r games are similar to this the first game was like a mystery right yeah um
            • 21:30 - 22:00 where there's like a game being played and if you if you fail to deduce the the the proper killer uh then somebody dies no if you uh if you correctly guess who the Killer is they'll be punished by an execution which there's plenty of bizarre executions to punish the uh the blackened so is this just something that's inherent to Monokuma or is this just
            • 22:00 - 22:30 junko's game in that particular situation basically is this related to how she destroyed the world uh the monokumas we don't see much about how they took over the world other than uh they there was a rampage and also she has these building-sized monokumas that can punch a building hard enough that there's an explosion so those guys probably helped with the world domination angle so junko is an insane lady who created a robot army and it
            • 22:30 - 23:00 just swept through the planet SW Planet yeah she took over does she have powers she not really but she is insanely durable she could withstand like towards the end of the game spoiler alert she uh has to withstand the ultimate punishment she is going to die but she goes through a montage of every punishment throughout the entire game and she's just tanking it like she gets like uh she gets burnt at the steak hit with a fire truck she gets launched into space and launched back down with free-entry which
            • 23:00 - 23:30 previously melted a guy down to the nothing but a skeleton but she was fine and uh she also withstood this uh electric cage that Zapped nor Zapped Mondo into the point where he was liquefied butter she took it she just took it just fine so she's incredibly durable I don't think springtrap could even kill her with his like just fist there's no way so how is spring trrap going to approach this like how does springtrap fight okay how does springtrap fight in the book you're goingon to be hearing that a lot in the
            • 23:30 - 24:00 book oh no goko can destroy base clap BL spring trap in the game no problem because I'm not I'm not gonna argue semantics he's not stronger than her and he's basically not probably not faster than her but when it comes to stamina and the fact that he is a ghost is very very important uh so in the books let's say junko fights him it's take care of him monokumas a monokoma touches Aton he is now controlled by Aton because Aton has a pass mive invasibility of what he interacts with is he can infect it with
            • 24:00 - 24:30 the William Aton virus I'm we're going to call it because he used to call the GP trap virus but people not accepting it but has the virus in the book so that's what we're referring to I'm using that virus and he has the ability to utilize his Agony to essentially merge himself with metal and animatronics and even sentient even great AI versions of these animatronics and subsequently in absorb metal passively to become this giant 15 foot tall Kaiju creature of
            • 24:30 - 25:00 pure metal the more metal around him the bigger he's going to get and one million monokumas you say huh I wonder how big and strong he can get just by getting one and that then he gains that monokuma's durability speed and so he can basically match junko at that point because now he has a body of something that can match her and get Bigg how long does this take very instantaneously like literally like he possesses it instantly or does it take instantly instantly it funny enough when he was doing it he
            • 25:00 - 25:30 was recreating his body from scratch making organs and metal and even bunny ears because he has a thing for bunnies for some reason oh yeah that's that's his iconic look and then in just IM mere moments he just gathered a bunch of trash in the area and then even devoured a bit of a fork glyph when it was smashed into him and hit into a wall he can just absorb metal so monokumas are all what met so question just I just for clarification somebody knows nothing about Fin frish you mentioned using Agony or whatever is that just like he's
            • 25:30 - 26:00 a tortured Soul like Agony as we know it or is that like a yeah you've mentioned that before is that like a power is that like a magic two things Remnant and Agony Remnant is like the main like power source of this of the franchise where it's the thing that allows uh the animatronics to gain life and be able to move around and stuff with being possessed uh by animatronics Agony is like a more concentrated version of it and a very more like potent form of it Agony is like a representation of just pure anguish and that anguish allows
            • 26:00 - 26:30 them to do a myriad of things such as e even mess with technology in fin night Freddy's 3 you have the Phantom animatronics that quite literally just turn off ventilation and a bunch of different other uh different Electronics in a in in a building uh giving Aton who is like one of the more prominent members of Agony he could just mess with Dem monokumas passively just like that as well it like the whole thing is that they can mess with electronics possess electronics and now with when it comes to a literally act as a symbiote and grasp on
            • 26:30 - 27:00 of all the different types of metal that's in the area to become bigger and stronger got it chat's also helping out Paul's Paul W says Remnant is a liquid metal made by Souls yes yes Remnant is basically your soul and FNA two quick things um I'm I'm definitely seeing the connections here uh in ways that I was aware of Agony versus despair in in in dong and romp and whatnot um I have noticed just uh uh who was it was like unob Boro in in chat has mentioned a
            • 27:00 - 27:30 couple different things um that seem to counter what you're bringing up John I'm wondering what you have to say about this Max one that every Monokuma has a bomb inside it so if absorbs one junko could just blow it up and two that ghosts do exist within dongan Roma anded so I'm curious sorry how you want to approach those yeah go for it I I wanted to adjust yeah uh I have a little picture of it in my my 60 seconds there Monokuma was able to exercise a ghost to
            • 27:30 - 28:00 eliminate somebody he he threw salt on him and the ghost melted away entirely Monokuma not junko just one of the monokumas Just One of the monokumas he just had the uh hold I think there was a name for it it was his uh purification Cal cultural Melting Pot yeah that's what the what it was no okay he completely destroyed this ghost to further rub salt in the wound of this guy who just got killed in a in a in a punishment so that could EAS be used to destroy spring chest Remnant or we know
            • 28:00 - 28:30 that Remnant is explicitly like it can be really [ __ ] up with fire and heat like that can weaken the remnant and force it to eject back into the Afterlife where there's just no coming back and I know you're going to say springtrap did endure fire he did endure fire so a normal fire is not enough to destroy his Remnant but the heat a heat that's enough to melt a guy down to the bone from RE re-entry or zap you into pudding that's enough heat I think to destroy his Remnant I think that's sorry re-entry yeah re-entry shots in space
            • 28:30 - 29:00 and comes right back down and the guy's a skeleton he was a normal guy when he went in there he came back a skeleton that was just in pieces he was a normal guy when he went into space when he came back skeleton changed Max Max M Max but let me let me let me say something people have been saying oh glit tap should be used bir trap should be used so I I can use that on you that's you said yourself you didn't think you needed it no no you didn't think you needed that but I'm telling
            • 29:00 - 29:30 you I'm calling you all your on your [ __ ] again D3 isn't Canon it is not canon and now you're use a Canon thing against something that never was established or mentioned versus a junko that has been dead for years if you want to use this cannon that she's gonna use this thing she's never used before against this guy it doesn't matter no and D in chances that was V3 which was not junko so and and the whole thing with the whole bomb thing when he
            • 29:30 - 30:00 touches when he he can control AI he can basically can do that he can just tell it not to blow up well that the bomb thing that's what I was thinking like if he if the bomb becomes a part of him then doesn't he control the bomb he controls the bomb now the monokumas control their own bombs J can't just push a button and activate I think she can I think she can activate herself she's in a control room she just bom she can just the whole thing is why I'm saying the whole bomb situation has an on off sish of
            • 30:00 - 30:30 obviously so he just keeps it off and from it I mean that's said if you are now becoming a giant beid you made full just full of bombs like even if you're like digitally they're not going off I feel like that might be a little bit of a liability from like a physical impact like here's the thing if if springtrap starts if he absorbs one of the monokumas with and and like the bomb is deactivated junko was really smart she's going okay every Monokuma that hasn't possessed yet blow up destroy at once
            • 30:30 - 31:00 destroy springtrap we can't have him to take our our monokumas so he'll just die like that and that explosion would be quite quite amount of heat I think would destroy his Remnant again he can just will his soul to stay into the physical plane that showcase and he can possess even the fragments that will be left from the explosion there is not atomizing the explosions here he will still be able to possess the metal and just come back again you're act going like if you destroy him he can't just reform himself
            • 31:00 - 31:30 you destroy his Remnant though he resisted a bunch of a bunch of times you are resistant heat you can't just use heat a normal fire a normal little fire I have question so what caused because he's dead now in purgatory as you said right what up in the air Deb probably right but what was the thing that supposedly killed him finally for good what killed him finally for good is that
            • 31:30 - 32:00 right now all we do know is in the fire of FNAF 6 he is kept by the the the one you should not have killed cassid Cassidy and the whole thing is that Cassidy is in the same boat the fire should have freed their soul too but they were so tied to keeping this man that she just ignored it kept him and now made a Purgatory that is just as real as anything things are actually given flesh he actually will feel the pain and die Agony and these ghosts are very are very very resilient now okay so
            • 32:00 - 32:30 he didn't like die die and go to like what we would assume would be Purgatory this is like basically a trap a prison was crafted to contain his soul because they knew he would come back yeah okay and how hot was that fire what what does that fire look like it went up to 200 it went up to 200 degrees and that's about as much as that we got before he ended transmission so it could have been higher but at a baseline it's 200 degrees and I get where you're coming from that weaker fire than what an explosion would be but again that spec that speculation
            • 32:30 - 33:00 he still stayed and one sh not a kill through sheer Agony alone resisted it when it's supposed to just be a catchall thing supposed to ejected them shouldn't even be that much it means that they can just so yeah Dylan F in chat mentions Fire doesn't destroy Remnant it only destabilizes it is that a thing it destabilizes it to the point that it will then shoot off into the Afterlife it will attemp I think that that the one who shall who shouldn't have been killed was just keeping him there so they could
            • 33:00 - 33:30 torture him he would have otherwise been sent off but they're like no I'm torturing you but again Cassidy what what what what's their excuse how are they still here how are they still there the whole thing about the theory about him replacing parts of himself which were golden Freddy and that's how the vengful Spar was able to latch on to him because they were right there at the time implies that they're also Remnant and Agony meaning that the fire should also ejected them but through sheer anger and determination they St C's sheer anger and
            • 33:30 - 34:00 determination Williams and in the books again but again in the books Aton has already proven that he's on that level because the representation of the one you should not to kill in that books lost the Aton so book afon Compares okay so quite literally downloading a lot uh and one of the other things Adam Z in the chat was saying wait was this AI Alter Ego junko or human junko because I I oh neither let's I think it's
            • 34:00 - 34:30 neither okay V3 yeah V3 I'm pretty sure is a world where dangan rompa is a franchise completely also I feel like just with uh afton's ability to possess Electronics if this was like an AI junko it would be over right like yeah especially whole glitch trap thing is used glitch trap straight up if glitch trap was used this already be over for a Le for AI junko G trap is capable of manipulating the game worlds in various different game uh arcade arcade cabinets and in the books
            • 34:30 - 35:00 it's basically explained that arcade cabinets are their own universes and is part of the wider Multiverse because FNAF world is a thing and it is Canon arcade cabinets are their own Universe yes like w okay I I wouldn't go into the junko AI for this I would keep we're not using AI we're not using I mean it sounds like it sounds like part of If This Were to be a full death battle episode part of this would be really locking down what is and isn't Canon um sounds a lot like uh one
            • 35:00 - 35:30 of the questions we have for Bardock omim man which we'll cover in a bit um but yeah like figuring out how to approach this is definitely really interesting and I I think when we do get to the vote depending on how you guys watching uh and listening really think about how these U different games and books and what and in different cannons really apply is probably going to matter a whole lot to how you interpret this um I will say for for the for a bit let's let's sort of uh uh let's let's digest
            • 35:30 - 36:00 all this information and we can talk a little bit about the um up another matchup we're going to be doing in the future um and then we'll get to the vote in just a little bit so as part of the kickstarter you guys very quickly reach the stretch goal of voting for a rematch for uh an upcoming episode uh so the way that worked is after the
            • 36:00 - 36:30 kickstarter wrapped up we've sent out uh surveys to all the the backers who had reached that level and uh we got a ton of votes in um between all the different backers who who submitted there were over 10,000 votes and the winner was pretty definitive we definitely saw a lot of different votes coming in but there was a pretty definitive winner and it is Master Chief versus Doom guy there they are Slayer Doom Slayer yeah well the the episode is
            • 36:30 - 37:00 probably going to be called Master Chief versus Doom Slayer I don't know we'll we'll find that out you know later on but yeah because because both these characters have had a lot of new material that obviously the original Master first of Doom guy came out very early on in Death Metal's life back when Ben was anim animating yeah I don't I I didn't know how to animate back then I literally learned while I was making the show so uh and we didn't have like the research team or the editing team or anything these guys right here like it was a completely different show right um
            • 37:00 - 37:30 so I am very excited to jump back into this matchup and explore it I think Master Chief vers Doom Slayer uh is going to be hardcore as [ __ ] oh yeah yeah uh yeah rip and tear guys it's te like new stuff in the newom Doom games it's going to be so much fun to explore uh oh it's gonna be good it's gonna be good so yeah um uh Master Chief versus Doom guy will be the rematch that we will be we will be exploring later on
            • 37:30 - 38:00 um whether that's this year or next year know sorry no definely not this year that's 2025 or 2026 still figuring it out yeah yeah um but uh just stay tuned to the channel we'll we'll absolutely let you guys know when that episode is coming up um as for the other matchups that were in the poll that you guys could have voted on uh we absolutely we're paying attention to like the everybody's interest in the different matchups because the the reason if if the matchup appeared on that poll it is
            • 38:00 - 38:30 because we do have some interest in maybe exploring it in the future um so there there is a possibility that other matchups in that poll will appear later on but obviously we also don't want to um you know bog down death battle with rematch after rematch after rematch uh so who knows we we might explore some of those other episodes but regardless Master Chief versus Doom guy is coming to death battle Yeah it's gonna be good it's gonna be good and that is not the next episode obviously if you have not seen yet the next episode which will be
            • 38:30 - 39:00 airing in what like three weeks right yeah is going to be Joker from Persona 5 versus gioro javana from uh uh JoJo golden wind JoJo from JoJo yeah uh yeah gold experience I saw a lot of people uh you know predicting that we were going to do this given what was on our Kickstarter right um but yes we've been we've been hoping to do this at
            • 39:00 - 39:30 matchup for a very long time we were very excited to jump into it um I mean you guys are aware that these first four episodes we are um premiering this year the whole reason why we're able to even make them this year um is because we started on them in the last waning days of Rooster Teeth right we weren't able to finish them obviously that was the initial goal of the kickstarter and then you guys just blaze through that in 20 minutes which is wild um but um that's these are the episodes that we had already started working on we're very
            • 39:30 - 40:00 excited to finish them all and share them with you guys I think you're G to like what we're doing with Joker ver jno it's really fun and it's not gonna be controversial at all not at all not at all was very civil about that match oh man it's it's fun that the first two episodes just happen to be ones that have a lot of different thoughts on oh yeah it's just how it is sometimes right and like that's we wanted to make sure we we started with the episodes that were first this along uh so that we could actually get you know episodes
            • 40:00 - 40:30 going you guys death battle as fast as possible yeah yeah yeah we we didn't want to wait until 2025 to get these episodes out for example um so anyway yeah that's going to be the next one so look forward to that we'll be having previews for Joker and Joo coming out on the death battle Channel Sunday couple weeks yes yes all right so all right Ben the our the community is very passionate about this match up the amount of like the chat's been going crazy super chats have been going crazy so I'm going to read a couple things 44 says spring
            • 40:30 - 41:00 traps Remnant has survived multiple multiple attempts to completely destroy him it would be an impossible thing to fully destroy it um let's see uh the good loser says I doubt spring trap can even touch when each Monokuma by itself can move fast enough to look to occupy two places at once so speed interesting because we haven't really talked about that the monokumas Apparently are very very fast um yes Alex is a very interesting thing that junko main Motif is to bring despair to others and so
            • 41:00 - 41:30 she's skilled enough in KN how to bring Despair and a master psychologist couldn't she make afon not want to come back oh oh not just that he could make Afton forget he is William Afton he she has an equipment a flashback device that can completely warp your mind until you don't remember who you are anymore you had me because that that's not going to work because once again springtrap a William Aton has like Supernatural willpower of seeing it in one location for 30 years and kept all of his sanity
            • 41:30 - 42:00 and also Remnant and Agy are liquefied memories to the point where it's not mental anymore it's now spiritual it's now spiritual in in it's it's encompassess that's interesting but also like I was kind of going with the max was saying until he mention he said device and then I went ah but can he just like that thing he can turn off yeah right it's so fast monuma is so much faster that it's going to happen before he can do that again when you you're trying to say that he's going to to open up with it first of all and you're going to just let spring to be
            • 42:00 - 42:30 like I guess I'm not going to take control of all the electron are in my possession right now he won't even think about it he'll be you mentioned John you mentioned sanity um and I just want to check in with with uh you Max does sanity and Insanity matter in regards to how junko like approaches junko is already insane she's uh I don't think you can make her go crazier actually I guess I guess what I'm saying is like in terms of like Agony and despair and all this these these you know proper nouns floating around here um does afton's
            • 42:30 - 43:00 mindset matter when it comes to whether or not junko is going to be able to affect him she uh she can already any of her equipment intact it's just going to work regardless but she has ways to just make people feel overwhelming despair there was a brainwashing video that if she forces you to watch it you will just be slave Adam zil in the chat says wait was it the flashback device in V3 which is the can was it was that mv3 actually yes oh no oh Mega Sonic Bros says that
            • 43:00 - 43:30 as well oh no also froggo same thing yeah we already V3 apparently is a Canon but thank you so much for that Super Chat you want to say V3 is Canon for you I can say glitch trap is actually William Aton if we both have like our own little thing and then you just lose because we're talking like passive just control he rapes his hand up and it's over it's over what for those of us that don't know what glitch trap is trap all about okay the interpretation
            • 43:30 - 44:00 before the mimic the interpretation before the mimic saying that one more time guys you FNAF before the mimic was basically half confirmed or you know spec highly speculated to be the one glitch trap is a manifestation of Aton Soul possessing a digital the digital space he has been manipulating and the ma and doing minations can can actually affect the real world by controlling people's minds by uh hold putting on a v VR uh VR headset and so he can slowly degrade uh he can slowly great a mind but he eventually got somebody named
            • 44:00 - 44:30 Vanessa to be his proxy of sorts to bring him a brand new body to resurrect himself uh in at the at at the bottom of the pizza Plex and so glitch trap is essentially a hyper intelligent super AI that once with a single in a single like few minutes not not even a few minutes like Bas a few seconds because one moment they're all all the animatronics that have sentient AI they can think for themselves walk for themselves go wherever they want do whatever they want like Monokuma and they were instantly
            • 44:30 - 45:00 taken over within mere moments when when uh glitch trap wanted to get at Gregory and have any he bring him his new body and his new vessel and stuff like that so all in all glitch trap is just better AI junko Skynet okay got it and so the argument there is if if if we're going with like non-canon stuff or potentially non-cannon stuff yeah uh then it's like he just waves his hands and all of the uh monokumas are taking over and they we're using non-canon stuff because my
            • 45:00 - 45:30 dang RPA v3e stuff has been vetoed and I agree I agree I'll keep things Cannon but I I I will say a couple people in chat mentioned including patch that that she does have some sort of way to wipe memories because the entire cast of the first game had their memories wiped so yeah yeah he she can make you forget your memories still it's just not exactly that equipment that we they were aware that the world had been destroyed yeah they had no idea yeah so not only were memories wiped they were like reprogrammed essentially
            • 45:30 - 46:00 right not necessarily they just didn't remember what happened oh maybe she had just taken over right before then okay okay but my my big uh like Point here is that like the second one Monokuma has taken over junko is not going to let that stand they have built in explosions they will just self-destruct on him and he will just be Remnant which I still think would get like annihilated by this I think it will it will definitely be a
            • 46:00 - 46:30 mild inconvenience until he just possesses any one of them or you keep forgetting that he can also just possess her and attack her soul directly and I'm pretty sure junko has no soul resistance last time I checked oh no when is when is he possessed a person not a machine because I thought he specifically had metal like the whole thing about uh the whole thing about the spirit they are tied to the animatronic that they are spring trap is Ted williiam Aton just tied to Spring trap pretty much but his spring trap is destroyed his Spirit can
            • 46:30 - 47:00 be freed just like how the spirits were freed when William Aton destroyed all of the animatronics and Nothing is Stopping them from possessing another object especially that object already has REM Remnant around its location and if you destroy the giant aamal creature that is giant uh aagam the agony trap I'm calling him the remnant just GNA now spread around it's because again he made Remnant by melting it down how do you melt stuff down he that means Remnant itself is it's going to be perfectly
            • 47:00 - 47:30 intact it's the spirits inside of it that can get ejected but we already I'm already saying once again William Aton just gonna come back he he can just will his soul to stay in a mortal plane he's done it before I love Yeah chat uh looks like William after took over Max keep me down I I don't stand for it he always comes back I always come back people bring okay so man there's
            • 47:30 - 48:00 definitely no way we're going to be able to lock this down in just a second that's this is this is this is a complicated a lot going on comp um but I do think it's really fascinating how we could potentially explore the the connections of this matchup and also the disconnections like how they are really different um so I this is a matchup that I've seen requested pretty frequently but I'm being less familiar with FNAF and only partially familiar with dongan Rob but I wasn't 100% sure like what all the connections were or or like how that kind of matchup would like like connect
            • 48:00 - 48:30 and the questions with the matchup this is fascinating I'm very interested in this now um so I'm very curious everybody in chat and everybody watching and listening to this later um what kind of death if you want to see this as a full death battle and what what we would hope to see in it like what kind of I learned so much yeah this is this would be a very unique type of type of death battle in a lot of ways um okay so let's let's let get into the final bits here because I want to obviously talk a little bit about omn man Bardock here at
            • 48:30 - 49:00 the end so let's let's do our final sort of statements for the characters we'll start with JN since we started with Max earlier on so John is there anything about um about springtrap that you haven't touched on or or how do you want to wrap up this argument people are bringing up uh people were bringing up that glamrock Freddy up resists his his his possess his uh hacking the the thing is it uh just like with the community it has been theorized and basically highly speculated that glamrock Freddy thanks
            • 49:00 - 49:30 to his speech that he had when he first opened the way to uh the burn trap ending uh that he has been possessed by a spirit people believe it's uh people believe it's uh Michael uh other people believe it's somebody else completely different who just trying to be a figure to him and it's heavily implied that since every other AI got instantly uh taken over by Aton that due to possession he is actually trying to just eject that possession out to get to the actual programming part of glam Freddy again it's just a theory but a lot of things are Theory when it comes toap and
            • 49:30 - 50:00 that one makes the most sense there's reasons why Glam Rock Freddy is different from the others they've been pointing that out all throughout the games and everything else in between uh when it comes to overall Soul hacks the speed thing doesn't really matter because again he's incorporeal everything is that it's just a matter of stamina at that point and eventually she's gonna get tired from running and he will catch herent and the whole explosions and the resisting uh the one form of heat again or eject him out of the rant but he could just come back in if he Wills himself hard enough like the vengful
            • 50:00 - 50:30 spirit has showcased and even he himself multiple times when they're constantly being destroyed and burned uh and finally when it comes to just overall just ability you have to understand that junko's also crazy and when it comes to despair she will gladly Inu Embrace despair if it means it will get a despair high high from something and William Aton also speaks to his victims he once told a person what it felt like to be spring locked and I'm pretty sure someone as crazy as junko will be like actually sounds kind of fun get me in that get me all right all
            • 50:30 - 51:00 right what about junko let's wrap up the argument I believe that spring trap does have a lot of fascinating ways to control technology but I think with the massive massive strength and speed Gap it's not going to amount to much when she can just constantly destroy him ruce him to a Remnant he has to continuously possess a different Monokuma that gets destroyed one after the other until eventually junko was really intelligent she can ahead she would be able to just like ultim manipulate the remnant itself the way that spring himself was able to
            • 51:00 - 51:30 manipulate Remnant and I think she has a way to permanently destroy it uh via either a trap of her or just like using extreme heat which I know has been discussed before there's been a lot of like gray areas of whether that would work but I'm I I'm led to believe that uh enough enough can destroy him for good okay frogo says uh they'd like to point out that Junu came back from an almost complete mind wipe from the ultimate neurology keep in mind the ultimates are the best in the world I ultimate neurolog the
            • 51:30 - 52:00 ultimate there there's ultimate ultimate neurologist there's some fun names there's always an ultimate the poll is up go ahead and get your votes in and we will see who officially wins once and for all for the first match up of skelet skober Celebration this this one was less spooky and more what the [ __ ] is happen there's Terror to be found and confusion yeah yeah um so I I like I said I I
            • 52:00 - 52:30 really love um just the discussion around this match up I think this would be a super fun episode to do um but yeah let us know what you think go ahead and get your votes in um and then we can talk a little bit about omn man versus Bardock I know um there's definitely a lot of talk about like how that episode was approached so I kind of wanted to cover some of that um I know some of you won't believe this given how some of the the comments are but it's actually the the reception has actually been pretty
            • 52:30 - 53:00 positive overall there's obviously a lot of negative comments that you know are near the top of a lot of conversations because welcome to social media that's all these systems are designed to you know boost those um but it the overall reception reminds me a lot of Thor versus Vegeta frankly um and and but that's not to like dismiss the critiques that I've seen we do take critical feedback for death battle very seriously it's one of the reasons why we've been able to keep the show going for so long the show does grow you know over time no
            • 53:00 - 53:30 season or year of death pattle is quite the same as the previous year of death pattle right um so we absolutely do appreciate the uh uh you know critical feedback and and and notes about like how we approach certain things I do think there are a couple things that maybe we could have explained a little bit better in the episode um and I'll I'll touch on that in just a bit um but let's go ahead and wrap up this poll I'm say my thoughts while you're doing that yeah uh and that is is it's very interesting and like we Max talked about a little bit so ghosts have been
            • 53:30 - 54:00 destroyed in dangara so there is kind of an argument there like maybe if it gets melted down then it can exercise the ghost but like that's some like real specific knowledge I think honestly what has swayed me to where I'm voting for springtrap is because it sounds like junko is so reliant on technology and that's just an advantage to what afon does you know what I mean like if she had all these powers and like could do all these things like spiritually or with magic whatever I don't know it' be interest it would be interesting there but I think it's so much Technology
            • 54:00 - 54:30 based and like it's just an asset I think to him so that's that's kind of my thinking I'm leaning the same way but I do feel like and this is maybe just because I'm a little more familiar with with Dungan Roma I do feel like context specific context with certain Feats and things that junko does is going to be super important to whatever this ultimate uh uh conclusion would end up being and I just don't know all the context behind every single thing that happens in dong Roba at this moment so that's definitely something I want to I would want to explore in a full episode because
            • 54:30 - 55:00 there's clearly a lot of uh esoteric and and weird ass [ __ ] going on in these in these stories and of course really locking down how to approach Cannon um would also be a thing that would be uh we would spend a lot of time really looking into at the moment I am leaning towards springtrap but I don't know I feel like it could still be swayed either way but as we wrap up the poll here we do have feel the sting of death battle cast Max
            • 55:00 - 55:30 welcome 62% is voting along with John the despair even bringing it along an animated intro like that serves Billy so well whenever he shows up some crazy intro like that [ __ ] I don't need this you can take the crown you can take it than thank you Mega Sonic Bros say Max and John did pretty well with the with covering the these two good job yeah that's you guys had a lot to cover and oh my God dissembling all of the proper
            • 55:30 - 56:00 nouns and [ __ ] I'm like wait whoa whoa what are you what is that what do you mean I didn't know about FNAF until today I've been with it for 10 years at this part of my life my gosh yeah the FNAF fandom and and lore and and craziness I mean it'd be fun to jump into we've been meaning to jump into it for a long time right so it'd be fun to jump into it for an episode all right yeah thank you Max and John you guys did incredible uh representing these characters so uh let's let's talk a little bit about um omn man Bardock um
            • 56:00 - 56:30 so I I know some of you guys have some questions about like how we approach certain Feats like um the in particular with omn man the whole how we determined how how strong he is and how durable he is and the incorporation of the solar disc and the planet's destruction so I do want to just note that um I've seen a lot of questions about like how we interpreted uh Theus statement that like they have a list of weapons can hurt vites or whatever um thinking that it's kind of a vague statement and I do want
            • 56:30 - 57:00 to emphasize that like as we say in the episode it's not just a single statement it is a multi-arc storyline in Invincible it's actually started in the Animated Series if you've kept up with that uh it's like it goes on for like 30 issues of the comic um building up to their ability to actually hurt vites it's it's pretty significant that they do not have weapons that can hurt vites and yeah it is a spaceship with with a cannon that obviously doesn't function in a one-on-one fight that the same way
            • 57:00 - 57:30 that like Bardock would but also that's not what they're doing that's not how a war Works um so if they had a gun even if it was a big ass gun on a ship that could hurt vites they know where the vites are they know where they are they can just go shoot them from space so there's there's a lot of it doesn't really make any sense if that ship could actually hurt vites why they would literally make such a big deal out of of them not being able to hurt vulture mites um so that's the thought process there and and with all
            • 57:30 - 58:00 these I totally understand if people don't necessarily agree with that necessary uh uh with that kind of interpretation but that's how we saw it um and of course there's the planet feat itself busting the planet spoilers vrum um where they said omn man could have died why didn't we say any of this so this is definitely one that I think we could have done a little bit better on the reason why we don't say it outright is because we show it and it's not really a part of the argument that we're
            • 58:00 - 58:30 making um I know a lot of people like really focused on this part of the episode because we do spend a decent amount of time talking about the planet and maybe we just shouldn't have done that but uh the planet's destruction is not part of the arguments really was mainly there at least the thought process there was to kind of showcase how um vites do match up to Sans in a General level that was basically it but the what's actually happening in the um
            • 58:30 - 59:00 in the explosion is also fascinating so to to to detail it the feat is omn Man Mark and thus and Space Racer are all involved in destroying this planet Space Racer fires the infinity Ray through the planet and then the vites follow the infinity Ray through it and Theta says we have to be quick um because they could die if they hit the core before it restabilized
            • 59:00 - 59:30 because the infinity Ray is destabilizing the core um that's that's what the feat is um taking the statement that thus makes that they could die if they hit the core wrong I don't really feel comfortable hinging an argument on omn man losing based on just that statement because unlike the statement about the the weapons uh this is just a singular statement and it's also an antifeat so I don't know just doesn't seem like something that's worth hanging an entire argument around um it's also
            • 59:30 - 60:00 an unknown factor they don't really know what's going to happen when they hit the core they've never done this before uh especially since the fact the way they destroy the planet is really bizarre because I think the biggest question about all this the infinity Ray hits the planet hits the core and all it does is destabilize the core and this thing can B but the infinity r is introduced as a sunbuster yeah it literally passes through like the way it's introduced in
            • 60:00 - 60:30 both the cartoon and the comic the infinity Ray destroys stars in fact in the comic specifically it mentions that the way it works is it passes through anything and keeps going there are Rays out there still going destroying multiple planets and stars in its path so what the [ __ ] is vilum how the hell does it just get destabilized uh so this is a big question that the comic doesn't really have a good answer for and I actually think it might be really interesting um
            • 60:30 - 61:00 to uh explore vilum as uh uh like what this is as maybe a separate video I don't know maybe it'd be worth it maybe it wouldn't um so there there's definitely a big question there and that's why we weren't really comfortable putting exact numbers on like dividing powers and things like that between it or levels between it and whatnot it's it's there's a big question regarding the planet so that's that's the that's at least the thought process there and how we approached it again I understand if you don't agree with that that's where we're at so I don't know it's a
            • 61:00 - 61:30 very bizarre sort of sort of thing to to try to put numbers to but hey this is also not an exact science versus debate things like that right like we all know like who knows what some of these numbers are we're looking at drawings in a comic book and and cartoons right um which is also kind of similar to how I've seen some people say like well I saw somebody else C the solar disc feet and they it was lower yeah I mean sure any c for the solar disc uh feat is probably going to be different because it's based on a lot of estimations um
            • 61:30 - 62:00 and when there's leeway and Cals we do tend to lean towards giving the benefit of the doubt um to avoid underplaying a character that's also what we did with Bardock and scaling him to Goku being able to dodge those meteors even though realistically Goku should probably be at a much more powerful State like level at that point um but generally they were in the same ballpark so it seemed fine to kind of just connect them in that sort of loose way um and also that you know ties into the question of like since Bardock is so
            • 62:00 - 62:30 much faster than omn man shouldn't he speed Blitz him and end the fight right there sure yeah the fight could absolutely end that way um when you know if you decide that speed is the deciding factor Bardock wins um but you know we do mention this in the episode we show that in our conclusion uh in our list of wincons but we don't base a Victor off of just one you know stat comparison we we try to be a little more broad than that um and then the last thing I just wanted to touch on is why did Bardock get Super
            • 62:30 - 63:00 Saiyan 1 but not Super Saiyan 2 three and four I I there's a couple reasons one I mean super awesome right like we think it's awesome um but we're obviously not covering Heroes Bardock or Dragon Ball online Bardock I feel like the episode covered that pretty well uh we just really wanted to you know explore that option for it and also like because that was one of my big questions going into it when we when we had our big you know when we started working on this episode literally in 23 um I I was wondering if it would make sense to incorporate uh
            • 63:00 - 63:30 the Super Saiyan form um because I thought it would be rad and the more you know I looked into how we could explore bardock's story and who he is as a person uh the more it made a lot of sense to talk about the Super Saiyan form because I realized you know the way they sort of have re-evaluated the Bardock character in the super manga sort of sets him up down the same path Goku is going down and I don't know it's just fascinating to me that like that's
            • 63:30 - 64:00 sort of the the implication is that he could have become what Goku is essentially but he had that ripped away from him it's a tragic sort of like example of of of a or tragic sort of story for a Saiyan like him um trying to move away from the kind of person he was and you know it's very similar to omn Man story it just felt really I don't know really fascinating to me and I definitely wanted to explore it and it just made a lot of sense to incorporate it so you know if you if you want to approach it in a very clinical way where
            • 64:00 - 64:30 it's like well you shouldn't have super saiyan because you know he he didn't have it in Canon or whatever it's also a question what Canon do you use right we basically looked at toy Canon and manga Canon or super Canon um but then maybe maybe the episode's not for you and that's fine um everybody's going to look at it differently and this is how we looked at it so I hope that kind of helps uh clear up some of the the you know questions of like how we looking at things um I I do think
            • 64:30 - 65:00 uh I I think it's important for us to see you know feedback and stuff uh regarding how we address uh characters and episodes and and matchups um and we absolutely do look at those uh so um know that I mean obviously we're not a big fan of like reading really negative comments obviously but like uh nobody is but you know like we we want to make sure that we're always improving and doing better um so thank you for to people who are um
            • 65:00 - 65:30 uh who who are criticism is fine don't be a dick yeah sure yeah thank you people who are are willing to give that sort of criticism and and be you know uh appropriate with it hopefully but also you know um will willing to to what am I trying to say basically give us feedback to help us improve yeah um because it it does it does matter right like I wouldn't necessarily want to make something that everybody is just blindly clapping for but also
            • 65:30 - 66:00 um you know it's nice to have some people CL for it yeah con about it yeah it it's good to be back um it's it's it's interesting to see nothing's changed yeah yeah um and we're still gonna be making some awesome death battles I think regardless you guys are going to have some fun things to say about Joker joro but I do think going into it you know try to see what how we're looking at the characters as
            • 66:00 - 66:30 well as how you look at them don't again I I I think it's interesting exploring how people have different views on characters that's kind of whole the whole point of what death Bal cast has turned into is talking about like different interpretations and and Explorations and uh uh into uh understanding characters and yes I I've seen a couple people in the chat mention about the Cutaway so we currently do not have anime C ways in the current episode um Max has actually been editing this uh
            • 66:30 - 67:00 upcoming episode and you guys might uh yeah I think you guys will like what he's been doing with a with a little whiz and Boomstick because we do still have those those that art we did get Wiz and Boomstick along with death battle from waren Brothers Discovery so y you haven't seen them for the last time if that makes sense dark mephy says they're building up to grew versus mega mine GW is going to end the saans oh no they'll destroy the moon y
            • 67:00 - 67:30 we've said this so much in the past I'm just gonna say it again I mentioned it in the commentary which we do have a commentary coming up for your members um soon but like like I so many comments which just like of course they make this person win they made this person win it's like why why would we do that why would we care to do that the whole purpose of the show is to try and figure it out and explore these characters like if if we it were to like game the system like we would have made made Bardock win
            • 67:30 - 68:00 like yeah I just I don't yeah the episode honestly would probably be doing better if if Bardock we move that going forward um but regardless like we we don't we we're never gonna like sell a winner right we're never goingon to rig it for like because this would be better for the algorithm or whatever that's death pedal's never done that and it's clearly worked just fine in the past so we're not going to do that you know uh as it stands um but anyway yeah hey uh hey uh can I uh can I can I bring up something
            • 68:00 - 68:30 I sure hey Max outer versal Bonnie anyway Austin joke one quickly quickly hell joke one Scott cofton said that Bonnie does not abide by the rules of time space or is and and then William destroyed Bonnie and before you're like this a joke joke two quick a this has been confirmed in the in the ultimate
            • 68:30 - 69:00 guide that bodyon is doesn't seem toide by the laws of physics so I destroyed you whenever I felt like it oh my God all right and with that thank you all for joining us for another death C that is not a bit I did not know John was gonna do that neither did I all right thank you all we will see you all next week members we will also have a champion cast later on uh it's good to see you all thank you for joining us take care Ley you won already
