Weird. I'm guessing this is not Chris Pine as a GM though

[Dark Soul # 7]

Considering that before this fight, the Naruto franchise had a 2-to-1 ratio of wins/losses in Death Battle, I wonder who's going to be sacrificed alongside Rock Lee so Naruto can get a third win?

Will it be Sakura? Or will she be spared and get the glorious third victory?

Who would be a good opponent for Sakura? Rukia maybe, or somebody with super strength, or a healer character? Many questions.

Madara vs Aizen is a very likely match up.

Yeah, that one seems pretty likely.

Not Naruto, but Big Three related. I hope they do Zoro vs. Kenpachi at some point.

[Dark Soul # 7]

Black Clover:Mereoleona's pure mana transformation makes me wonder if this is foreshadowing for characters like Asta, Noelle, and Yuno going forward.

Seems pretty likely since they're all already able to basically cover themselves in their magic for a boost in power. Semi-turning into their magic energy seems like a magic-logical next step.

I'm sure that's a frequent request, so we'll get it.

As for Sakura's possible opponents, Orihime might be an interesting opponent

Problem with those ideas is that Zoro and Sakura would be fighting invisible opponents, meaning they're at a severe disadvantage... Well, maybe not Zoro, since he has observation haki, which might let him be able to somewhat perceive Kenpachi like Naruto could Ichigo. But Sakura... yeah, no she'd be completely screwed against both Rukia and Orihime.

Does Orihime have the same invisibility thing going on that the soul reapers and hollows do?

Oh yeah. I forgot that Death Battle doesn't handwave the ability to see Bleach spirits like we do.

Nope. Orihime is a human so she would be visible to everybody. Her powers might be invisible though, not sure. But she's so much of a support character that I don't think she's a good fit for Death Battle.

Yeah. Why it's hard to put Bleach characters into fights against most characters unless you completely ignore the fact that they can't be seen by them, which Death Battle doesn't. I think the only reason they made Naruto vs Ichigo is because Naruto had feats of being able to sense/fight what were essentially Bleach characters. Otherwise the fight would have been an eventual Ichigo curbstomp.

Neat to know. Haven't read Bleach, so I didn't know there were characters of note that didn't become invisible to use their powers in the manga.

Dark Soul 7's Mihara

I love her!

Ahh, she looks so cool! Just like how I pictured her. I'm feeling all giddy just seeing her.

Thank you for doing this.

ANOTHER D&D movie?

Based on past movies, the question is not 'will it suck?', but 'how bad?'

Hey! Hey now! Let's take a moment here.

As detailed in my podcast, Dungeons and Dragons II: Wrath of the Dragon God is way better and more fun than it had any business being! I am quite protective of that film because it was so much better than the first one despite having a lower budget and, more pertinently, so much better than I expected it to be.

IDK about the new one though. I do like Chris Pine as a performer but he's not enough to sell me in isolation.

I'll need to listen to your podcast, then. I just recall them being horrific, and don't remember which one is the one you're talking about.

*checks*

Oh, it's THAT one. Where they actually have a teleportation malfunction (edit: and barbarian rage). Okay, that one was...terrible, but in an amusing way, so fair enough. Having said that, I still want to listen to the podcast, as your stuff is invariable hilarious and gets me to look at things differently. ^_^

The first one was just garbage; Jeremy Irons couldn't help it at all.
