Death Battle: Goku vs Superman 2

>Uses N52 Superman

>gives him Post Crisis Feats

So what was the point of this rematch if superman was gonna win again?

[KentalSSJ6]

Dont know why anyone is surprised. I mean what were you expecting?

[Polyphase Avatron]

Does it really matter?

I honestly don't get why people get so upset about their favorite characters losing fan-made battles.

I mean it's not like Death Battle is all that accurate anyway. Last time, even Superman fans who agreed he would win said the reasoning and arguments they used in the video were bad.

[Black_Liger]

I get it, Death battle are Vegeta Fanboys, they are making everyone who tanned his hide suffer.

Majin Buu, and Goku.


It all makes sense. Vegeta is the only DBZ character who won his death battle (without the reasoning that if they used Shadow's comic self, his Hyper form should be freaking Superman level as far as I know)

[dbgtFO]

Surprised they had footage from Super.

And they can't put it up on Youtube most likely because of that.

[Super Saiyan Swagger]

They handled that very well. I completely agreed with what they said. I love how they made it seem that it wouldn't be right for Goku to beat Superman. Goku represents someone who wants to fight the best while Superman represents the best. Literally nothing can beat Superman... Not even Goku... and I'm totally cool with that. Because if Goku were to beat Superman then he just wouldn't be the Goku we know. It's the same reason why Goku didn't beat Beerus. Goku represents the fighter... Not the winner.

Let's keep it that way because he's so much more of an interesting character.

>Uses N52 Superman

>gives him Post Crisis Feats

They said they used both.

[The Monkey King]

Called it:

New 52 Supes vs SSJG Goku eh?

I think Goku would stomp pretty hard. But knowing death battle he'll lose again

But I don't get why they used a composite Superman, it makes more sense if they used his current incarnation.

Also while I understand their interpretation of Supes it just reeks of NLF in a Vs match-up regard.

Not to mention they took quite a lot of his feats out of context, it looked like a respect thread you'd find on Comicvine.

So according to Death Battle if Superman fought Marvel's TOAA it would be a tie?

All in all, there was no real point for this rematch to have been made.

Although the animation was sexy as hell.

[Doctor.]

Shouldn't they have mentioned that Beerus has destroyed suns?

Either way, I was surprised they mentioned that Goku being a "Superman clone" was largely due to the dub's fault. Also surprised they portrayed Goku as selfishly as they did, I liked that, he was an asshole this time around. Battle was much better in terms of animation than the last, though I kinda doubt that Superman could just walk through that Kamehameha like it was nothing when he was having trouble handling SSG Goku's Kamehameha a while back in the fight lol.

[Hellspawn28]

If Superman lost, the same negative feedback would have happen. DB fans should admit that Superman has better feats overall.

[dbzfan7]

Woulda liked to hear how they calculated or handled SSGSS (They did their own calcs for Goku anyways so I'd be interested to see how they did it now), but they didn't mention a thing. However they mentioned why this is an even more massive stomp. I'm disappointed they didn't say anything about how they'd rate Goku like they did last time.

I'm more disappointed in the fight being kinda dull. Funny enough it's felt like the representation of an angry Superman putting down the child Goku. Maybe a nod to the fan backlash? Kinda felt like that.

[GokuRules987]

Dont worry Goku is going to travel to a 6th universe fight against other gods and become OMNIPOTENT! Then he could easily kill Superman!

I guess you just ignored the last part about Goku being a boring character if he was as strong as Superman.

Just because I ignored someone's opinion on how Goku would be a boring character if he was as strong as Superman doesnt mean he would be a boring character. You do realize that he will still win!? because hes the main hero and protagonist in the story, DBZ isnt something serious like Game of Thrones where you see villains winning all the time. If Goku was omnipotent i would be more than happy to see him kicking everyones ass including supermans haha

[SSJ God Gogeta]

I knew from the very start that if Goku would be using god form he would have no chance in hell of winning.

They went ahead and replicated some of Burst Limit's and Xenoverse's cutscenes too, it really made it better.

[Doctor.]

They used a less powerful Superman in this match-up, didn't they? Then why did he have less trouble against a stronger Goku? It looks like they really slacked off in the battle, even if it looks great, it should have been much longer though.

[KentalSSJ6]

I knew from the very start that if Goku would be using god form he would have no chance in hell of winning.

Not like SSJ4 did him any favors in the first fight.

[jcogginsa]

Fight was disapointing.

-The battle was a lot less entertaining.
-Didn't even use the Superflare despite bringing it up
-The stuck to the "Unlimited potential" BS

And i say this as someone who thinks Superman would win

The concept of him having no limits is pure NLF.

But Goku always wins in the end!!! DBZ is all about the heroes winning it doesn't matter if Goku is weaker, he is the underdog of the show he always finds ways to surpass someone since the old school Dragon Ball.
