I am in despair, why is that the next time? We only get 1 October per year and the month meant to be dedicated for a Halloween episode is instead making Goku smurf Saitama.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

No AA7 but on the bright side they remembered Kay Faraday. Here's hoping this means Capcom decides to keep her (and hopefully other AAI characters) relevant in a future game. Also, Phoenix put your arms through the fuckin' sleeves.

AYO YO WHAT F-- This shit doesn't look like a Death Battle. This looks like an official animation from either Sega or Pokemon. Holy! www.reddit.com/r/deathbattl...

Wait Robert vs Phaethon?! What the actual fuck, I'm down for that fight if it ever gets made. Actually no, now that the idea has been put in my head this needs to happen.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 29/08/2026

Spoilers for Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney- ... Going into Phoenix Wright's last trial before he was disbarred is giving me the same vibes as watching the Clone Wars Season 7. Like, I know what's coming but that doesn't make it easier to approach.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

Feels weird laughing at my own stuff but I got this other project I've been working on on-and-off since July and I accidentally made Edgeworth sound like a single dad and I cannot get over it.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

OH FUCK! MAN, FUCK! HA HA! My genuine reaction to next time. For once I can say I'm looking forward to a rematch (should've be Tracer vs Scout though).

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Just a heads up, QnA Part 3 is not in any way shape or form in sight at the moment due to: 1) Me wanting to illustrate the Colosseum 2) Me having limited access to my drawing pad at the moment and I cannot be bothered to learn to draw with my mouse. Sorry for the long wait.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

Aether's Abilities section in the G1blog has been bugging me for a while. So as one of the few Genshin players who do read, here's a breakdown on how applicable each ability actually is in a fight. Does this change the results of Aang vs Aether? No. This is just to get some facts straight.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 11/08/2026

Damn. Imagine being so dumb that Edgeworth genuinely believes Gumshoe and Larry have more brain cells in their head.

Ngl, opening the episode like this was some nasty work. I was not expecting to start the episode on the floor laughing at Aether trying to take Aang's lunch money.

Easily my favourite reference in this entire work. It also helped save me from my writer's block when trying to come up with a comeback for Zero. What better way to do it than do it with top-tier style. Link to the video where I got this from: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OD5K...

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

How 'bout we pretend like I was busy working on these the entire time and not getting side tracked by new hyper fixations? Anyways, time to go back and continue where I left off on Crowned Queen. Where did I put that draft... archiveofourown.org/works/624445... archiveofourown.org/works/624445...

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

Now I know no one on Earth Prime is looking forward to this and I would prefer if the Traveler fought someone else. But screw all that. I made a reaction video when Cell vs Metal Sonic came out so you better bet your left ball I'm making one when this comes out.

What's up! No I'm not dead but no chapter yet unfortunately. I have broken my silence to say 2 things.

Since this post floated around the Death Battle subreddit a few days ago (and since talking about it there probably goes against the subreddits' rules which is why I'm talking about it here) I figured I should at least make you guys aware of this situation. www.reddit.com/r/deathbattl...

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 24/05/2026

Marvel vs DC is back baby!!!

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 15/05/2026

I'm not usually one to complain about things like this and I may be out of line to say this, but that's bullshit. The post was talking about wanting to see Death Battle fights like Leon vs Jason, a fight that was covered in a cast episode. Why is discussing future battles ideas against the rules?!

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 14/05/2026

I know Vsbattle is not always the best place for scaling... and I know no one had any hope for Aang winning against the Traveler anyways... but Aang, I don't think even wanking you is going to work.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 09/05/2026

Related to why there's been little updates regarding Death Battle Behind the Scenes. I've been busy... On a related note, this shit was so funny. (Probably less funny without context but I had to share)

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 04/05/2026

Jeez... perusing through others' comments made me realise this episode is like the opposite of Bowser vs Eggman. That one was so good even those rooting for Eggman said the episode was so good they were okay with the loss. This one was disappointing enough that even some Gru fans aren't happy.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 04/05/2026

I WAS JOKING WHEN I SAID MEGAMIND WAS GONNA GET NERFED CUZ OF THE SEQUELS! What do you mean it became a deciding factor!? (I may disagree with the results but the kid that grew up with Despicable Me can't be too mad...)

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 29/04/2026

I just saw the GruMind sneak peak: Why are the graphics Wii game levels? Scratch that, I think a Wii game featuring either would look better. Luis Cruz definitely had a fun time voicing for this one. Is that Death Battle City? God, it's been so long.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 23/04/2026

Funny comments Context: Vergil still losing to Sephiroth despite DMC5 scaling.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 11/04/2026

Is this a controversial take?

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 11/04/2026

I just finished Danganronpa Trigger Happy Havoc (no spoilers for the rest of the games cuz I'm playing them too). Holy shit that was intense. The dread at who might die and who the killer is. The heartbreak when it's a character you like that died or is the killer. I loved it.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

Just wanna put a reminder here that my thoughts on Cell vs Metal Sonic are not written at the end of the most recent chapter and are instead in this video I made. If you are not interested in the reaction, the review begins around the 42 minute mark. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpcX...

I plan to keep everyone updated on the progress of the upcoming story arc, Crowned Queen. Like I said before, some work has already been done on it so I'm not starting at 0% progress. I'll try to keep updates regular but that depends on if I made massive progress on the works.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 05/04/2026

Just realised an image from my draft didn't make it into the final chapter. Fixed it.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 28/03/2026

Has anyone ever thought of the idea of putting scaling caps on characters? Like I know a common one used is that Space Racer's star destroying gun can kill Viltrumites in one shot so Viltrumites can't be star-level. But what if you applied this to other verses? Naruto, Sonic, Star Wars, etc.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 24/03/2026

Damn, got double tapped by the moderators. This shit's a bitch. What do you mean Metal, Kirby and Mega Man's copy abilities can't be DB related? What else are they supposed to fight with?

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 16/03/2026

Sometimes I like to check in on Vsbattle profiles to see if anything has changed with some of my favourite characters. When did Mega Man Starforce get downgraded? And when Mega Man X steal his old 2-C rating?! Well at the very least, I can use this to claim that Metal vs Zero is actually close.

All the slander art in the G1 blog is pulling me out of my grave. I love all of this. g1-team.com/2026/03/12/d... (That last one has no business going so hard for just slander art)

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 13/03/2026

Ain't no way that's an actual quote by Napoleon. I need to double check this, this can't be re- It fucking is real. I didn't know the word "slander" was even that old. Apparently it was first recorded back in the late 13th century. You learn something new everyday.

021

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 09/03/2026

My head canon is that Cell wanted to prove himself after being beat down by the move last time which is why he chose to tank it instead of dodge. That and he is in Perfect form, not Semi-Perfect. "I won't let it beat me again!"

My favourite thing in this whole waiting period is just how many strays Vegeta is catching. This is the equivalent of getting hit by a random crit that wasn't even aimed at you. (credits to the DB subreddit)

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 04/03/2026

Just wanted to check in and say hi. I am not dead, as some would say. I am simply prioritising my other responsibilities because deadlines. I am still working on the next chapter so don't worry about that. I've also made sure to make it up for the longer wait time. So look forward to that.

Finally done reading that massive blog. I feel like Hidan finally being able to taste blood for the first time in that fight. All in all, it was incredible, both in terms of the work put in and the passion. I've got some more thoughts that don't fit in the word count.

Rider @rider-237.bsky.social · 03/02/2026

For those curious as to when the Hulk vs Godzilla chapter is coming out... sorry the delay I've been trying to catch up with the G1 blog's organisation battle royale and I just made it to the final fight chapter. (so no spoilers) All I gotta say for now, as a Vader fan, Obito you moron.
