Brutaka vs Teridax


Set_Brutaka

Suggested by Destroz Brutaka is a very powerful Bionicle character and one of the few who could actually hold his own against Teridax in a fight: this is pretty impressive when you consider that Teridax is supposed to be the strongest in the whole verse. Teridax has more abilities to be sure but Brutaka’s seem more impressive in general. It is a close fight, but I have to hand it to Teridax here. His array of abilities will be too much to defend against. Teridax wins.

Asriel vs Tatsumi

Asriel_Second_Form
Suggested by Random Asriel may be one of those fighters who puts the fear in you, but he won’t be able to handle someone like Tatsumi. Tatsumi is a whole lot faster and stronger as well. A few good hits would definitely be enough to decide the match and Asriel certainly couldn’t hope to dodge. He will just be another one of Tatsumi’s victims in the end. If only he had gotten a power up. Tatsumi wins.

The Band Concert Review


It’s time for another classic Disney review! In this special, Mickey Mouse is actually the antagonist for once. In my head canon, Mickey Mouse let the fame get to him and he forgot to look out for the little guys. As such, he is now the leader of a band and only allows top musicians to play with him. Donald tries to get in on the action, but Mickey reacts violently each time. He’ll have to think of something to get in on the act, but things get tough when a tornado sweeps through and carries them all off. Can Mickey finish his song or will Donald interfere again?

It’s a pretty entertaining special and I can see why people consider it to be one of Disney’s stronger ones. I thought it was more enjoyable than the others that I’ve seen as well. It’s pretty high energy the whole time. Sure, Mickey is pretty out of character, but it just goes to show that even he loses it once in a while. At least Mickey is super focused as not even the tornado could break his concentration. His team didn’t miss a beat and that’s why they’re considered as the pros.

Meanwhile, Donald Duck did his best to fit in. He didn’t let the others get him down and came with a lot of flutes just in case. I’d say that he’s easily the best character in this special. Donald is a reminder to us all that nobody can stop you from playing your tunes except for yourself. This special was a little light on dialogue so we didn’t get to hear Donald’s iconic voice as much as I’d like, but it’s still always fun to see him on screen. Donald is certainly my favorite from the old Disney characters. Another bonus is that Goofy doesn’t get much to do here since it’s just a bunch of Goofy ripoffs in the band and none of them have any lines if I recall correctly. Most excellent!

The actual song that the band was playing was pretty good as well. I definitely don’t mind old style songs for a special like this one. After all, something like Brave or Excalibur Clash wouldn’t fit so well right? I sometimes like to wonder what is better, to have a really epic song for something simple like baking a cake or to have a fairly uneventful theme playing the whole time. The latter would be forgettable, but the former would hint at something epic coming up and then you’d just be disappointed. It’s a tough question for sure.

Overall, it’s fun to check out these retro specials. They’re really short so you can breeze through them, but the animation holds up well. Mickey Mouse and the others certainly got iconic through these shorts so Disney knew how to market even back then. Still, I doubt anyone could have ever guessed just how legendary they would ultimately end up being. There are a lot of specials so it’ll probably be a while before I see them all, but I’m getting there step by step.

Overall 7/10

Gate vs Bass



X6_gate
Suggested by Blake Gate has a cool design and he is one of the big enemies from the Mega Man X series. He certainly has real power, but that is not enough to stop someone like Bass. Bass is the strongest being in all of media and his physical stats are completely out of this world. He would be able to defeat Gate before the reploid even knew what hit him. No energy blast can save him. That’s the power of the world’s strongest. Bass wins.

Goku vs Hit


163ffa38db07bf005fec5de190b72cf1
Hit may have won his first round, but it’s time to remind the world who the strongest Dragon Ball character is. Goku cannot be defeated and his power continues to rise. He may face off against opponents who can temporarily hold their own and those who test his limits, but Goku is never surpassed. His Saiyan abilities are just unparalleled and with each new form he gets, the more everyone else is left in the dust. Hit is a cool villain though and it’ll be cool to see him stick around. Goku wins.

Sailor Mars vs Yami Yugi




Suggested by Anon Sailor Mars is one of the more headstrong members of the Sailor Scouts and she was a tough individual before she received her powers. That being said, there are few people who are quite as determined as Yami Yugi. He has succeeded in every game that he has ever played because he refuses to give up. His legion of monsters will ensure that he doesn’t lose this round either. Mars won’t be able to burn her way through all of them. Yami Yugi wins.

Mikaela vs Armin

Suggested by Destroyer Mikaela is a powerful vampire who has a decent amount of superhuman speed and strength. He can augment his strength further by using his blood, but this comes at the expense of his stamina. Armin is a smart tactician, but he is not all that skilled on the battlefield. Even if he were to turn into a Titan by the end of the series, that would not be enough to close the gap between these two. The difference in speed is simply too much and Mikaela will likely gain another power up before the series concludes. Mikaela wins.

Silver Dragon Adelaide vs Magoroku Shido


unnamed (1)
Suggested by Sonic Silver Dragon Adelaide is back, but he is up against Shido now. Shido has actually been doing pretty well for himself thus far. He continues bulking up his wins with this round as Adelaide cannot stop him. For one thing, Shido has his own Adelaide along with a flurry of other monsters. Shido has an infamously large amount of monsters since he is always switching decks and his army cannot be stopped. Shido wins.

Sailor Venus vs Yami Yugi



ebfde8a2bfedfb8a934104f06f9858a4
Suggested by Anon Sailor Venus has some of the more practical attacks in the Sailor Moon series. Her whip can ensnare opponents or just deal them a lot of damage with the impact. She can also fire off some energy blasts. That being said, she doesn’t have a whole lot of speed at her disposal and her raw power isn’t great either. As such, she will find that getting past Yami’s monsters is next to impossible. There are too many of them and Yugi also has a lot of spell and trap cards at the ready to prevent any possible comebacks. Yami Yugi wins.

Hit vs Krillin


Hit_Profile

Suggested by Anon Hit is one of the big Dragon Ball Super villains who got a lot of fans very quickly. It is easy to see why since he was one of the only foes to be a real threat and also stay serious. He was able to give Goku and Vegeta a good fight so I definitely don’t think Krillin would last very long here. He has grown stronger over the years and certainly isn’t a pushover but Hit is drastically stronger than him. They aren’t really in the same league. Hit wins.
