Fun Fact: 15:33 when Asta said “Man, this guy can even give Luck a run for his money” was a reference that both Luck and Deku were voiced by the same English voice actor
It's very nice to see Deku being as smart and tactical as he can in the beginning, meanwhile Asta was very simplistic with his strategy "I just have to hit him really hard." Then towards the end Deku succumbs to that same simplistic by saying the exact same line.
@Maximiliano Garcia there was more than that deku does use a lot of strategies when he fights his first and 2nd battle with bakugo all deku did was stratagize, his training with gran torino, his battle against mirio, shigaraki, nagant, class A, etc I understand that many of deku's fights ends with him defeating a villain with just sheer strength but it's not like deku doesn't stratagize at all he consistently thinks and fights with quick thinking he studies his opponents movements and predicts oncoming attacks and with the multitude of quirks he has he needs to think even faster
@Amuro Ray asta has done it but it’s not his go to all the time like midoriya. And I did recognize he fought gentle with strategy… but that’s it… he fought with strategy. He beat him with pure strength once he went pink glows I’ll give you nagant… I’ll give you that. But even gentle was BEAT with pure strength… not strategy. And everyone other than nagat was fought and beat with pure strength… he had help from Eri for horikoshi to develop a flashier fight rather than smarter fight cause plot armor eri allowed it. The rest midoriya is just powerhousing everything. Except gentle’s fight until the last moment when he resorted to brute force.
@Maximiliano Garcia wrong. he used Gentle’s own air bubbles against him to shoot air bullets. That’s 100% strategy. His last attack against Gentlr was a shoot style kick to the face. Beating someone in hand to hand combat is a power struggle? Asta has done the same when he goes beyond his limits. He only used faux 100% against Lady Nagant because Chisaki was about to get killed and he needed to reach him in time . Otherwise he used smokescreens and diversions against Nagant. You said he didn’t use strategy and he did. Who did he overpower to beat? Muscular and Overhaul. He needs help in most of his fights
@Amuro Ray bs he fought gentle with strategy and ended up beating him with a strength struggle once he powered up with la brava’s quirk. Lady nagant? I honestly don’t know but I do remember him using fa jin faux 100% to beat a lady that has no super strength… that doesn’t sound like strategy to me… had he used just strategy he wouldn’t really need that much raw physical power…. Also… 2 villains that have a shaky argument of him using strategy out of how many?
Deku being dead before Asta’s swords hit him is honestly so sad, seeing his eyes lose their light after his final punch as he says “I did it…” like damn. One of my new favorite endings to a battle
Honestly they really missed out on having a fight between Deku and Rock Lee since All Might fought Guy. It could have been a cool callback. I think it would have been a much closer battle without a huge stomp.
@B0ng Water yes i know but they left so many of asta abilties to and played it of as "his anti magic only has an effect on magic" which isnt even true it works and real objects aswell it just doesnt absorb them, meaning that he could oneshot deku with something like his equinox or zetten, which were already revealed in the manga when they made this
I feel like people always forget that the condition for being able to use one for all at 100% is just having a stronger physical body through working out which Deku has been doing for a year and 10 months, any damage he does to his arms now is way less than at the beginning of the series through season 3
@Dragon Cat You don't read comics huh? It's fine if you don't it just seems like it. Again I said "to me" which means what I said was an opinion I'm not arguing with you and I'm not trying to change your mind I'm saying that's how I view it.
@Gimme Skooma Personality??? That's the last thing I want to hear. Shazam is still childish very much to me. He dosent feels the responsibility of saving people. He was just playing around and making some videos to get views. He doesn't deserve to be a hero. He has just pure heart,but he dosent has responsibility. Izuku has and feels strongly the responsibility of saving people even before he had powers. Izuku is actually very much burdened with the responsibility He worked himself tirelessly, for 2-3 days to find villain. Izuku is more worthy, deserving, hardworking and actually feels the responsibility of saving people and not some kid with hero complex,who thinks himself very much special or greater or cooler than others just because he has powers How can you find izuku similar to Shazam? My point is though both Shazam and izuku are chosen one,izuku worked tirelessly and did hardwork like Batman for the powers he got with the responsibility like Spiderman
@Dragon Cat to me he's similar to Kamala and Shazam in personality but that's just me and for that last part all heroes feel that responsibility to save people because of their abilities that's why they're heroes
@B0ng Water they nerfed Asta so that Deku can even compete, with just casualty break Asta could just render Deku useless again by taking away his power, Asta can block attacks that can 1 shot countries without even trying, even EOS Deku will never stand a chance against pre-time skip Asta
They put in like 2 out of his 10 Quirks. Its just a Black clover bias, AAsta is OP in a world of MAGIC not quirks. He is powerful but nobody can take as many smashes as he did and live, not eve asta.
fun fact if you pay close attention to Asta's devil union form it, its the old version before he unlocked true devil union and it only lasted 1 minute in this battle instead of 5
honestly after reading few about half the comments here there was really 3 sides to this death battle... the MHA Fans who were mad deku lost despite him having no actual way of winning (they haven't read black clover) the Black Clover Fans who were mad at the SEVERE downscale of asta (they only put him at around low country when its possible to argue he's around small moon level ish) and then the people who actually enjoyed the fight for what it was and joked about the mister satan ending
“While you may not have the abilities of your peers, there’s nothing stopping you from achieving your dreams” while asta may be a good example of that. Midoriya isn’t.
Not true, midoriya has proven that even without a quirk, he has the potential to be come a hero (him trying to save bakugo from the sludge villain was proof enough) and besides at their lowest both asta and deku were about to give up until yuno and All might gave them the inspiration they needed to overcome their despair and gain the abilities they needed to reach for their goals. However I doubt that asta can become the wizard king with his anti magic and demon swords, but he could be a killer demon king
I mean... Both of them got "Gifted Powers" in the end (OFA and Anti-Magic), the biggest difference is that Asta's efforts BEFORE he got his Powers played a huge role as to why he could even use them properly at all, while Deku didnt really bother until he actually got OFA
.....idk i think midoriya is fine as an example....it may have been better if he was never given a quirk and still went to ua but asta still got some form of ability as well so it balances out
What i think isnt talked about but asta is actually really smart once he puts his mind to it. As he has solved many issues when he actually tbinks abouts about it especially in combat. As he was able to pick up ki insanely fast. And became second nature.
Quick note, real Greatswords are not dull bludgeons, this is a common misconception but a well kept blade will be just as sharp as any other, no reason to deliberately make a weapon less effective.
I dont know if I'm remembering right ((SPOILERS)). But Deku was the only one to be able to use all the quirks? And had the best "connection" with one for all. Allowing him to constantly speak to the "imprints" of the former holders. All Might said that he had never been to be able to connect to them like that, but could feel Deku being able to if he had physical contact with Deku during it. Also, it wasn't just that Deku moved automatically to save his friend. But, the actual or "the ideal holders" needed to be quirkless. Or else one for all would burn away their life force.
Your half right, cause before deku possessed OFA, his body moved on its own to save kacchan from the sludge villain. And even though OFA burns the life force of quirk users more than quirkless people, it would only be accepted by those who are worthy of weilding OFA, even if it can be transfer by force or if the weilder give OFA to the next successor, they would have to find those with the noble heart to be it's worthy of having it
@Amuro Ray no, and I don't think he'll be the first HxH character to make it. With the return of HxH, it's likely they will do a matchup, but they will probably go for people like Killua, Meruem or Kurapika as the first HxH representatives
While I’m not happy they defied their own logic with Izuku’s death, I will admit that I’m happy that “Survived a nut shot from Kota” was included in Izuku’s feats list.
@uacrimsonbolt my science teacher taught us how high up you would have to drop a Blunt Iron Rod from to Impale a cat on the ground(don't ask) Point is even A blumt object can stab with enough force. They are still pointed, And Very very heavy, With the height and force Of all 3 coming down on his back will Pierce. Especially since Deku is Unconscious basically and can't activate His Quirk. Seriously people be forgetting basic physics.
@Crimson Bolt Stabbing and cutting are two different things, buddy. If you're cutting, you need something sharp, but if you're stabbing, you need something pointy; the edges of Asta's swords are dull, but their tips are pointy. Death Battle didn't defy anything.
I mean at least Asta won cause from what I know there should be no world in which he loses. Like sure Izuku is strong but he should be weaker than Asta. The easiest way of seeing this is by how Yuno is almost mountain level in early black clover while Deku is at max mountain level currently while Yuno has grown much stronger since then and Asta scales to him. Maybe if this was a hypothetical adult Izuku he could win because then he could using something close to like 200-300 OFA in short bursts via a mix of OFA, Fa Jin, and Gear Shift but like this nah he never stood a chance.
In this case asta is indeed faster but overdrive should have giving a means to catch up and also allow deku to just slap him around in the battle field I just feel like this was down to quickly and could have waited till both series was over also asta new ability would just pretty much erase everything around him physically and magic alike but that was never introduced as well
@some_shitposting_idiot still asta way stronger then deku physically and mentally he can take beating from people who outscale city/continental attacks and villiams who can put you in 1000 tons of gravity just like casual.
@Yeah had being past tense, but they're still swords 💀 and anti magic still amplifies Asta's physical capabilities even if he couldn't cut Deku in half at based it'd still cut through skin 💀 Remember Deku doesn't outscale his own ability defensively and he's mid island level
WTF why asta is so nerfed in this video? First he is not this stupid, second his is much more faster than ligh, Deku even stand a chance. Third, he don't use three swords. like zoro...
Cause in reality Asta might not be as dominating against deku as you think he is cause oh god I have some crazy crazy proof that could take my heroes anime to a whole different stratusfere
My dude they're both nerfed deku is unknowingly nerfed because his feats were grossly glossed over and low-key somehow if you see this reply so I can prove it to you just like I've single handedly proved it to everyone else that's said that to me I have footage I have facts from real world and anime logic test and ill tell you just how broken these ppl truly are
This season finale is going to be a strange one. It may be because he beat Broly and Janemba, but Gogeta's my favorite of the fusions. No offense, but anyone else notice how Vegito wasn't the one who beat his opponents?
The people who’ve been reading both the manga knew who was going to win this. Nonetheless, I appreciate Death Battle for making the fight look closer than it actually would’ve been.
@game universe Unless the magic congures a physical thing with actual weight and not just an explosion shaped like something, the average well built dude could deflect the majority of magic attacks because things that make those sized explosions, aren't nearly as heavy as you think they are.
@Jr and Asta took out the king of hell that crumbled an entire kingdom by just being there as he used gravity magic, A demon the size of at least a skyscraper that was about to evaporate the entire clover kingdom in one attack And a devil that could manipulate reality with word soul magic, a devil fusion that made a sun consisting of fire and ice the size of an entire kingdom and hit it back with pure force (as anti magic isnt like pong where it it touched it, it just instantly repels it, he has to be able to put the right amount of force behind it to hit it back) And a guy in ep60 that absorbed the elemental spirit of fire said to be able to evaporate the ocean and Asta tanked an attack from him in base So I think we're square
In all honesty, this was a good match up, but as someone who loves to read the manga for both BNHA and Black Clover, I would have to say that considering they're both on their final arcs, I feel like death battle should've waited for both series to finally end so that we can what they're both TRULY capable of, because Asta right now could destroy at least like a whole country while Midoriya is fighting someone who could potentially destroy the country and both haven't even reached the height of their powers yet especially Midoriya who hasn't even awakened the rest of his predecessor's quirks, but even if Midoriya won, I feel like it was too early for this match up, I at least wanted to see them at full power for real 😔
I feel there was one calculation missing in this fight and that's the fact that Asta never had to tank the spells that could destroy kingdom's, granted his physical abilities are absurd with this 10 000 push-up a minute but I think that's more to the fact that he can't count. Even in his own series he gets physical overpowered by the lion lady and Yami.
@srdjan455 Yami would overpowere anyone in MHA verse in strength even all might, and mereoleona uses reinforcement magic to enchance her physical strength
@srdjan455 Yeh, cause he needs relative physical strength to repel the magic(such as when he and Yuno could not stop Licht’s magic beam). He also tanks the magic power of the magic head on. Stuff that support this is: •He could defend against Zagred’s word magic. Which were threats to being, again, above Pitoli when he did the feat, like Spirit Drive Yuno, Licht, the first Wizard King, and Dark Elf Pitoli. And this is important because Zagred’s word magic was purely physical and not magical(ergo, was immune to Anti-Magic). •He could tank Dante’s gravity amped punches. Dante is noted to be superior to Zagred as well, making Asta surviving these punches WAY more impressive. And it should be noted that, even in Black form which has Anti-Magic coursing through his entire body, he cannot erase the mana that mages use to physically amp themselves. This is shown in full effect against Mereleona and Elf Luck. Meaning he took the full force of these magically enhanced punches head on himself. And since they’re amped with magic, they should logically scale to their own magic output.
He later fought Dark Elf Pitoli, who was directly stated to be vastly stronger than when he did this feat. He also fights beings way stronger than him afterwards. Like Zagred and Dante
Honestly feel like a more fitting matchup would have been meliodas vs Asta. Deku and Asta have being an underdog that was thought to be powerless? Meliodas and Asta both both fight with swords, demonic connections with a black demonic transformation, both have anti-magic with Asta's swords and Meliodas full counter. Asta loves a nun and Meliodas loves a goddess so there's another connectionHonestly feel like a more fitting matchup would have been meliodas vs Asta. Deku and Asta have being an underdog that was thought to be powerless? Meliodas and Asta both both fight with swords, demonic connections with a black demonic transformation, both have anti-magic with Asta's swords and Meliodas full counter. Asta loves a nun and Meliodas loves a goddess so there's another connection
I heard that the reason they didn’t want to have Asta vs Meliodas was that nearly all the crew of DeathBattle just genuinely didn’t like him. Which is says a *_whole lot_* when they have even made their favorite characters(like Goku and Sonic) die in their show and made characters they didn’t like win. Somehow Meliodas was one of the characters they just genuinely didn’t want to cover
I think putting out that video is kind of risky. It always is when a story is not yet finished. Also, I think the misunderstood gearshift a bit… it can increase the speed of any ability and let’s you use it with another. For the second user that meant he basically was really fast, cause he had no other quirk, but for Deku that means he can combine his quirks. So he could potentially make a floating smoke screen fa jin and let people implode if used correctly. We simply haven’t seen the full extent yet.
I think they did this mainly because they already had an idea that Asta was going to win anyway at this point in his ark and thought it be fun to make and show off My Hero and Black Clover to people who don't know either show. Which is the point of this series, not to only prove winners but to show cool content to people who don't know anything about these characters
I’m glad death battle did the classic death battle analysis (a lot of things either interpreted wrong or just…wrong) or else asta would’ve blitzed him in a second.
"Deku would lose" -also conveniently ignores half of his abilities- Good job. You can do fake math based off a non canon movie but can't be bothered to do research actual source lol
Just an idea for a battle though I doubt it would occur it would make for some killer action Pride from Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood Vs Lucy of Elfen Lied, with their similar power set and attitude it would be a really good fight.
Similar powerset? Yes. But judging from the feats lucy had in her fight with carnage and what we've seen of pride, he's gonna get smoked. Lucy's vectors can reach the upper atmosphere in minutes at most Pride's shadows can be blocked by Ed who's greatest speed feat is dodging a bullet Lucy's vectors can rip people and metal apart like butter. Pride's shadows have been blocked by the teenaged Ed. Lucy's vectors can create explosions which can potentially erase pride's shadows. Lucy's shadows are invisible while pride's shadows can be seen. The only thing pride has going for him is durability (since he took a beating from a lion chimera for minutes on end), alchemy (which weakens his shell body even after one transmutation, which is why he doesn't do it often), and intelligence/experience TL;DR pride's gonna see the light.
Anybody else feel like the feats they used are pretty biased, astas "light speed" wasn't a reaction, it was just blind luck, and deku's strength feet was from before he could use ofa at 100% without injury (which they forgot to mention) meaning without any other quirks he can pull that off the whole fight and gear shifts increased speed means 100% becomes 120% plus fa-jin doubling that, and deku moved so fast that someone with multiple sensory abilities couldn't keep track of him
The point was that Asta's sneeze pushed him SO fast that it made him dodge a light beam that was mid-fire. Doing that would actively require his body to move out of the way that fast. It wasn't meant to be a feat of reactions The moment there was mainly to make it funnier(they did the same for Hulk vs Broly, where there was indeed greater multipliers to pull from, but it largely didn't matter and the Umar _bow chika bowow_ feat was funnier), Asta immediately after that deflects multiple of the same laser with his sword point blank, has multiple more feats of blocking lasers and light, and scales to multiple characters who also have such FTL feats. All of which, was before the timeskip and their powerups where they get even more powerful. Yes, but Asta's feat also upscales just as much(he later fights characters like Dark Elf Pitoli, Zagred, and Dante, who's power were directly noted as being literal leagues above Pitoli when he did the feat. And he fought em before the timeskip and before he got his Devil Union form), and scaling to the Salamander would bring him FAR too above for this to matter anyway. So noting it would mean jack for the verdict. No, cause the FTL feats against Shigaraki is also fairly late series and required multiple quirks for Deku to really match. Asta's FTL feats were VERY early in the series, in base, and upscales very much cause Black Clover be like that.
Best Lines: "I just gotta hit him really hard" "I don't know what Detroit is, but I've had enough of it" "YOU WANTED MY BEST?!?! HERE IT IS!!!" (All might vs Might Guy reference) "Take that... Detroit..."
idk about mha i've watched it it's good but def watch black clover it's so good especially after a while dont give up on it no matter what it is such a good anime
So with Astas swords the principle is actually consistent. As in manga and other fights with Vetto his swords can all cut or not cut. Even before the katana was introduced Asta has been seen cutting Vetto and Ladros. Asta had cut Ladros with his blade with black meteorite and peirced Vetto with his sword. So his swords can always cut. They are only blunt because Asta normally doesn't want to kill people. You can also add the word soul demon fight where him and Yuno cut its heart in half. Edit: Asta has also been seen cutting a whole fortress in half with a swing of his sword that practically touched the sky
@RJ_sensess That's more an observation than actually concrete. It wouldn't be the first time death battle got an observation wrong. Plus, there are contradictions to the swords just being blunt on things that are not magic.
@Murloc Masterthen a better match up would be the demon lord or Kumoko herself from So What Im a Spider. Just need to figure out whether they're skills are magical or not cause otherwise Kumoko stomps Asta with hax.
@whooper He's talking about the other swords. Death Battle said his other swords beside his katana can't really cut and is meant for blunt damage. The guy is trying to say it was shown that they can be used for more than just clubbing an enemy.
Ya know, I had to swallow my positive bias towards mha and reconsider my stance on this. Someone described deku’s and all might’s strongest attacks as city level threats. Astra (now mind you I know nothing about him) looks like his attacks can threaten a nation.
Something not mentioned at all is that Deku has two way communication with all of the Vestiges inside him amd the fact Deku can combine his multiple quirks for added affects. Gear Shift alone is only a 20% boost, sure, but Gear Shift + Fa Jin + One For All is much more than just a speed boost. Gear Shift adjusts speed while ignoring intertia, and it also can affect whatever Deku touches, not just himself. I think yall did a disservice to only look at raw power feats but I guess thats okay cause it keeps it consistent with how you do this series. There were a million different ways Deku could have have won that objectively.
I love deku but he legit didn't have a chance. Asta scales far higher in every regard, his verse is just way stronger than deku's. Even Manga deku with all his quirks realistically would be fodder to current anime Asta
How is it similar if you guys say shigaraki dodged the lasers clearly trying to avoid them and asta just flat out dodged it in his sleep is that not different asta clearly showed little to no effort where as the other had to try and avoid it
I just had a interesting Death Battle match up. I hope more people agree so we can see it. Who has the better defense, The Shield Hero Naofumi Iwatani from The Rising of the Shield Hero or Maple the Walking Fortress from Bofuri: I Don't Want to Get Hurt so I'll Max out my Defense? I think it'll be an interesting fight considering how creative they are.
Haven't fully caught up in Black Clover so I'm not sure, but that might have been a reference to Zoro's 3 sword style when Asta put a 3rd sword in his mouth
I just thought of something remember the battle between ultron and sigma they should do one between ultron and brainiac. Both are highly intelligent planet destroying AI
My matchups for the death battle series part 2 1:Blade Wolf Vs Serial Designation N (Metal Gear Vs Murder Drones) 2:Carnage Vs Serial Designation V (Marvel Vs Murder Drones) 3:General Grievous Vs Dr Nefarious (Star Wars Vs Ratchet & Clank) 4:Min Min Vs Cinderace (ARMS Vs Pokemon) 5:Albedo Vs Scourge (Ben 10 Vs Archie Sonic) 6:Chaos Vs Kyogre (Sonic Vs Pokemon) 7:Rayman Vs Klonoa (Ubisoft Vs Bandai Namco) 8:Bendy Vs Cuphead (Joey Drew Studios Vs Studio HDMR) 9:Ty Vs Kao (Kromes Studios Vs Tate Multimedia) 10:Eddie Riggs Vs Wolfgang (Brutal Legends Vs Skylanders)
Well the attack they used to show asta being stronger wasn’t actually stopped by asta it was stopped by Julius novachrono and also the attack wouldn’t have destroyed the whole nation it was meant to kill all the humans in the nation so it didn’t even have as much strength as they said it did
I'm surprised no one mentioned izuku's crying. I mean, at one point, he cried so hard he didn't only made himself a fountain, but also stuck his legs to the ground.
I'm more surprised no one mentioned that midoriya snapped out of shinso hypnosis with OFA; can talked to the previous users of OFA; also defeated shinso, gentle, lady nagate, wolfram, nine, flect turn; dodged nine laser fingers, flect turn security lasers, and Beros target seeking arrows at 5-8%; has slight incredible pain resistance; and more
@solo8123 and that's still low balling it I said deny would be at least 4 times faster than light or higher because weakened all might was able to go light speed so in his prime if we going by his power differences in both stages of his life he was 40 to 60xs weaker than before so that means if we multiply that he would be what 60xs faster than light but I'm tryna make it fair for you asta stans
I loved how they reacted to each others different powers. "Aren't swords supposed to be sharp?" "How are you not using magic?!!!!!" Also this fight was basically the nerdy jock vs the dumbass jock
@JJ W "He is a battle genius and can adapt on his enemy." They mention how deku does this, ignore how Asta does this, then proceed to ignore how Deku does this so Asta can get a win. Deku always fought at massive disadvantages and had friends cover for him, same with Asta. The difference is that Deku has on more than one occasion done the war of attrition strategy which is something Asta can't do when he unions with his adopted devil brother, and Deku has the speed, felixibility, AND QUIRKS to avoid Devil forms onslaught of attacks. But of course they can't have Asta lose in devil form, people wouldn't understand that because I don't think the manga ever showed an enemy smart enough to wait the timer during a 1v1. This isn't a turnbased fight where you stand there and take hits, but that's literally what this ended up being.
@Joel why spread false information so people can remember something? pretty much 70 percent of anime heros don’t look like they can do anything, the whole vid was a mess
@SamuraiJay yeah they were only doing that so some fans could say look I remember when he did that and once again asta can be smart all he wants asta only said I have to hit him really hard cause look at deku would you think he could blow up a island he looks like a kid playing dress up who couldn't afford a Superman cape
@Joel I mean if somebody is saying that your character and your characters goal was copied off somebody else’s, they made him seem dumb, like all I gotta do is hit him hard, asta is smarter than that, and as for asta having a sword in his mouth, he only did that because he couldn’t use his hands, HE has never used his swords like that except that,
@SamuraiJay I see where you're coming from but counterpoint #1: why does even anyone even care that he had the sword in his mouth it's just a little bit of a thing for the fans to look at and go oh look I remember when he did that there were trying to make it look like he's a rip off of One piece they weren't trying to disrespect him in any way the one piece being the wizard king and the pirate king was just a joke. it was a joke they weren't actually trying to say he was a ripoff the fans and you apparently who isn't a fan took that way too deep. And he did once use a sword in his mouth correct me if I'm wrong people who actually read the Manga but I'm pretty sure you put a sword in his mouth last time when it hit two hands were broken I don't know I don't really like the anime I have only seen the first episode and stopped watching. Counterpoint #2 yes they lowball him a lot mostly because like I said before they're trying to show the ma Chase stands that even if this character was at his weakest he would still lose they said this before in the behind the scenes I don't know if you have premium. Even if you you don't they've done this a lot almost every other death battle when the lowball the loser and highball the winner to show that even with the benefit of the doubts this loser would still lose. I don't know why people keep feeling like they're disrespecting their character just cuz they made a lot of jokes about this okay they made jokes about deku 2 it's not like they favored one over the other these are 40 and 50 year old men I promise you they don't care who wins they probably just care about being paid and getting the winner right. And the sounding dumb parts you need to look at this through the characters eyes if you saw deku a little boy with green hair with a yellow cape would you take him seriously he didn't take him seriously and I wouldn't either not to mention he's not as smart as you think he is he doesn't first walk in and come up with a strategy and every single phase and then halfway through the fight he starts thinking that's not as clever as you think it is that's like a Ben 10 level clever thinking halfway through the fight they're right deck is way more tactically smarter.
I didn't really care who won since I liked both characters, but you can tell that Asta was completely favored in this because they covered more info on him and kept using his "feat" of "dodging" a laser in his sleep, even though it was a joke moment that they took far too seriously. They didn't properly even go through Deku's full feats, like when he helped All Might break that giant metal cube from the first movie, or when he ran so fast that literally became a living lightning bolt, and punched so fast that his fists ignited when he fought Flect Turn. But oh well, that's Death Battle for you, getting info wrong
I wanna watch this one but I havnt finished Black Clover and guarantee they will be power set spoilers for Asta. Which is fine obviously, it's death battle thats to be expected. Just sad I gotta skip this one for now 😪
Wasn't this the 6th anime battle that both characters was in jump force? Because all i remember was 1. Jotoro vs Kenshiro 2. Sasuke vs Hiei 3. Madara vs Aizen 4. Naruto vs Ichigo 5. Deku vs Asta 6. Doesn't because its DBX but (Law vs Kenshin)
My wife and I would both love to see Eowyn (Lord of the Rings) vs Arya Stark (Game of Thrones). I brought it up casually once, and now she won't stop arguing with me over it lol
@The one ☝️ Delusional MHA fans. Many characters in Black Clover would defeat Deku with no problem. It's not even a competition, Asta alone would solo all of MHA verse. The only one who would give him a fight is All Might himself. Everyone else wouldn't even come close to touching him.
@some_shitposting_idiot cope and seethe harder. Black Clover fans seething over their trash irrelevant series. No wonder why it’s manga sales are failing.
@Amuro Ray "survived actual nukes" hmmm yeah of course, anyway don't let this distract you from the fact that bungee gum has the properties of both rubber and gum
16:23 I like the small detail of how Asta's VA used the fan translations from the black clover manga which originally used "magic emperor" before the official translations changed it to "Wizard king."
This fight was how I for seen it, there was no way Deku would win. Regardless of how you look at it one for all is a broken quark, And Deku is a glass Cannon no change no improvement, and in my mind mentally disabled and borderline psychotic and impulsive liar. Wait wait wait???!!! This is a Hero? He more a Joker/ Deadpool baby that want to be all might clone... Make Toga look like a normal girl in comparison
Its about the two who were born as Losers and the Lowest in the society with nothing special about them, Unlike Goku is a Legendary Saiyan God, Naruto who is the child of prophecy, Luffy who had the power of a God since his childhood, or even Katsuki and Yuno being their rival Prodigies. Asta and deku were losers born with a mutation and without A quirk in a world dominated by Quirks in their everyday lives and having no magic in a world where magic is everything. these two are just legendary.
hold up didn't deku said "ain't swords suppose to be sharp"? so that means deku could have died there but was saved because the sword wasn't sharp 😱 but in the end he died because I think his body cannot hold much more power anymore because of that punch.
Fun Fact: 15:33 when Asta said “Man, this guy can even give Luck a run for his money” was a reference that both Luck and Deku were voiced by the same English voice actor
It's kinda stupid, because Luck would murder Deku
Wrong, his theory's not only correct but also part of DEATH BATTLE wikis easter eggs
Yah why didn’t the get Justine Bryner back as Deku.
He voiced PIT in his episode.
And same Japanese voice actor
Ehhh... Deku's slow by a huge margin compared to Luck. That line is stupid!!!!! Deku's MHS+ speed has nothing on FTL characters like Luck!!!!!
Asta hit Deku so hard, he ended up in Fortnite.
@Sir Smiteful not that bad tbh idk why yall actin as if we stuck in the bad old days of season x xd
@Hai Nguyen Super Fr!
@Slick-Drip-Vic he is in fornite
💀
@Kaja X Lesly First Naruto, then dragon ball, and now my hero academia. Who's next, one piece, or maybe even bleach?
It's very nice to see Deku being as smart and tactical as he can in the beginning, meanwhile Asta was very simplistic with his strategy "I just have to hit him really hard." Then towards the end Deku succumbs to that same simplistic by saying the exact same line.
@Maximiliano Garcia there was more than that deku does use a lot of strategies when he fights his first and 2nd battle with bakugo all deku did was stratagize, his training with gran torino, his battle against mirio, shigaraki, nagant, class A, etc I understand that many of deku's fights ends with him defeating a villain with just sheer strength but it's not like deku doesn't stratagize at all he consistently thinks and fights with quick thinking he studies his opponents movements and predicts oncoming attacks and with the multitude of quirks he has he needs to think even faster
@Maximiliano Garcia okay
@Amuro Ray asta has done it but it’s not his go to all the time like midoriya. And I did recognize he fought gentle with strategy… but that’s it… he fought with strategy. He beat him with pure strength once he went pink glows
I’ll give you nagant… I’ll give you that. But even gentle was BEAT with pure strength… not strategy. And everyone other than nagat was fought and beat with pure strength… he had help from Eri for horikoshi to develop a flashier fight rather than smarter fight cause plot armor eri allowed it. The rest midoriya is just powerhousing everything. Except gentle’s fight until the last moment when he resorted to brute force.
@Maximiliano Garcia wrong. he used Gentle’s own air bubbles against him to shoot air bullets. That’s 100% strategy. His last attack against Gentlr was a shoot style kick to the face. Beating someone in hand to hand combat is a power struggle? Asta has done the same when he goes beyond his limits.
He only used faux 100% against Lady Nagant because Chisaki was about to get killed and he needed to reach him in time . Otherwise he used smokescreens and diversions against Nagant.
You said he didn’t use strategy and he did.
Who did he overpower to beat? Muscular and Overhaul. He needs help in most of his fights
@Amuro Ray bs he fought gentle with strategy and ended up beating him with a strength struggle once he powered up with la brava’s quirk. Lady nagant? I honestly don’t know but I do remember him using fa jin faux 100% to beat a lady that has no super strength… that doesn’t sound like strategy to me… had he used just strategy he wouldn’t really need that much raw physical power…. Also… 2 villains that have a shaky argument of him using strategy out of how many?
“Take that Detroit” has gotta be one of the best lines I’ve heard in death battle
@k askew same bruh 😭😭
I’m from the D. And I thought I was tripping when I heard him say that
He didn't even know the definition of Detroit
Deku being dead before Asta’s swords hit him is honestly so sad, seeing his eyes lose their light after his final punch as he says “I did it…” like damn. One of my new favorite endings to a battle
@ChaosVector His eyes literally go white mid air
huh? did Deku die in the air from his own limit or from Asta's blow when the two collided?
@ren branwen why not?
@Elaina Vigil how is he not dead when his swords hit him
@Guamish source?
I really love how this fight seem to cause Asta to have a hatred for Detroit just from being yo-yo’d with Detroit Smash
@Dragon Lord ye but you are not deku so therefore you can't. Now 🤫
@Brandon Kious Skipping-Gill I'd do the same thing if it was working
Deku was a spammer for that yoyo attack
Honestly they really missed out on having a fight between Deku and Rock Lee since All Might fought Guy. It could have been a cool callback.
I think it would have been a much closer battle without a huge stomp.
Rock Lees was an unfortunate stomp too, its like death battle doesnt even care to make the fights even.
Rock Lee and Deku both scale to their senseis' feats. It's almost pointless to rehash the battle
Well, Rock Lee's already been in DEATH BATTLE, and both him and Deku have the same record
It would probably end the same, Lee could've won with just his gates
At the same time, it's kind of redundant.
I knew Asta was going to win, but damn that still hurt to see my boy go down like that
@Coolstarytasta and Luffy? That’s a completely weird one what’s their connection? Asta vs Meliodas makes more sense.
@B0ng Water yes i know but they left so many of asta abilties to and played it of as "his anti magic only has an effect on magic" which isnt even true it works and real objects aswell it just doesnt absorb them, meaning that he could oneshot deku with something like his equinox or zetten, which were already revealed in the manga when they made this
@ً HAHAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHAHA!
@B0ng Water bro thinks we're listening 💀
They left out so many of dekus quirks.....
Lmao deku just broke his arms enough times to build resistance to breaking his arms
I feel like people always forget that the condition for being able to use one for all at 100% is just having a stronger physical body through working out which Deku has been doing for a year and 10 months, any damage he does to his arms now is way less than at the beginning of the series through season 3
Love how they acknowledge that Deku is practically the Spider-Man of the My Hero universe due how the mangaka is a huge fan of the latter
@robertjr kind of
@José Gabriel Domingos no since mrs marvel is luffy but not but not bitched like her Izuku is a hybrid of Spider-man and lowballed hulk
@Dragon Cat You don't read comics huh? It's fine if you don't it just seems like it. Again I said "to me" which means what I said was an opinion I'm not arguing with you and I'm not trying to change your mind I'm saying that's how I view it.
@Gimme Skooma
Personality???
That's the last thing I want to hear.
Shazam is still childish very much to me.
He dosent feels the responsibility of saving people.
He was just playing around and making some videos to get views.
He doesn't deserve to be a hero.
He has just pure heart,but he dosent has responsibility.
Izuku has and feels strongly the responsibility of saving people even before he had powers.
Izuku is actually very much burdened with the responsibility
He worked himself tirelessly, for 2-3 days to find villain.
Izuku is more worthy, deserving, hardworking and actually feels the responsibility of saving people and not some kid with hero complex,who thinks himself very much special or greater or cooler than others just because he has powers
How can you find izuku similar to Shazam?
My point is though both Shazam and izuku are chosen one,izuku worked tirelessly and did hardwork like Batman for the powers he got with the responsibility like Spiderman
@Dragon Cat to me he's similar to Kamala and Shazam in personality but that's just me and for that last part all heroes feel that responsibility to save people because of their abilities that's why they're heroes
I'm a fan of MHA but Asta has fought full fledged devils. No contest, nuff said...
@B0ng Water yeeeeah... no. No, it was not. Asta takes this, easy. The power scaling differences between shows is nuts.
@B0ng Water they nerfed Asta so that Deku can even compete, with just casualty break Asta could just render Deku useless again by taking away his power, Asta can block attacks that can 1 shot countries without even trying, even EOS Deku will never stand a chance against pre-time skip Asta
@B0ng Water bro thinks his opinion matters 💀
They put in like 2 out of his 10 Quirks. Its just a Black clover bias, AAsta is OP in a world of MAGIC not quirks. He is powerful but nobody can take as many smashes as he did and live, not eve asta.
Dont know if that gives you an auto win but sure.....guess in this case it did
fun fact if you pay close attention to Asta's devil union form it, its the old version before he unlocked true devil union and it only lasted 1 minute in this battle instead of 5
I attributed that to Deku hitting him. *Really hard*
@Jan Patrick MADRONERO 5 mins? bro asta blitzes deku in less than 10 seconds so it doesnt matter
You do realise all his devil union forms (except partial DU) lasts 5 minutes right?
honestly after reading few about half the comments here there was really 3 sides to this death battle...
the MHA Fans who were mad deku lost despite him having no actual way of winning (they haven't read black clover)
the Black Clover Fans who were mad at the SEVERE downscale of asta (they only put him at around low country when its possible to argue he's around small moon level ish)
and then the people who actually enjoyed the fight for what it was and joked about the mister satan ending
I am all 3 😂 but on clover side, because black clover is 10/10
they lowballed Asta really much and Deku tho but we all know that Asta easy
honestly i still didn’t see any MHA fan except me but i have watched black clover though
@Turbo Animation I agree with you on that.
And that They said Asta scaled to that 488.5 Teraton feat, which as actually Large Country level, not Small or Low, but/just Large.
“While you may not have the abilities of your peers, there’s nothing stopping you from achieving your dreams” while asta may be a good example of that. Midoriya isn’t.
Not true, midoriya has proven that even without a quirk, he has the potential to be come a hero (him trying to save bakugo from the sludge villain was proof enough) and besides at their lowest both asta and deku were about to give up until yuno and All might gave them the inspiration they needed to overcome their despair and gain the abilities they needed to reach for their goals.
However I doubt that asta can become the wizard king with his anti magic and demon swords, but he could be a killer demon king
@ultimasuper exactly
I mean... Both of them got "Gifted Powers" in the end (OFA and Anti-Magic), the biggest difference is that Asta's efforts BEFORE he got his Powers played a huge role as to why he could even use them properly at all, while Deku didnt really bother until he actually got OFA
.....idk i think midoriya is fine as an example....it may have been better if he was never given a quirk and still went to ua but asta still got some form of ability as well so it balances out
"I don't know what Detroit is, but I've had enough of it" is my favorite line in any Death Battle
Take that Detroit:
It was soooo funny ya😂
Asta's most badass line
FACTS!!!!
"Can't have sh** in Detroit" 😂
What i think isnt talked about but asta is actually really smart once he puts his mind to it. As he has solved many issues when he actually tbinks abouts about it especially in combat. As he was able to pick up ki insanely fast. And became second nature.
The real victory of this Death Battle is that they managed to make Asta sound much less annoying XD
Quick note, real Greatswords are not dull bludgeons, this is a common misconception but a well kept blade will be just as sharp as any other, no reason to deliberately make a weapon less effective.
I dont know if I'm remembering right ((SPOILERS)).
But Deku was the only one to be able to use all the quirks? And had the best "connection" with one for all. Allowing him to constantly speak to the "imprints" of the former holders. All Might said that he had never been to be able to connect to them like that, but could feel Deku being able to if he had physical contact with Deku during it.
Also, it wasn't just that Deku moved automatically to save his friend. But, the actual or "the ideal holders" needed to be quirkless. Or else one for all would burn away their life force.
Your half right, cause before deku possessed OFA, his body moved on its own to save kacchan from the sludge villain. And even though OFA burns the life force of quirk users more than quirkless people, it would only be accepted by those who are worthy of weilding OFA, even if it can be transfer by force or if the weilder give OFA to the next successor, they would have to find those with the noble heart to be it's worthy of having it
did you know? deku’s black whip has the properties of both rubber and gum
@Gontha it is a hunter x hunter reference
@Itamar Keren I see
@Amuro Ray no, and I don't think he'll be the first HxH character to make it. With the return of HxH, it's likely they will do a matchup, but they will probably go for people like Killua, Meruem or Kurapika as the first HxH representatives
@Tejas Gokhale the amount of people guessing the reference wrong has me sweating bullets 😂😂
Has Hisoka EVER been in a Death Battle?
While I’m not happy they defied their own logic with Izuku’s death, I will admit that I’m happy that “Survived a nut shot from Kota” was included in Izuku’s feats list.
Honestly deku performed more amazing and better feats than that, but hey
Glad some people know physics based on the replies
@uacrimsonbolt my science teacher taught us how high up you would have to drop a Blunt Iron Rod from to Impale a cat on the ground(don't ask) Point is even A blumt object can stab with enough force. They are still pointed, And Very very heavy, With the height and force Of all 3 coming down on his back will Pierce. Especially since Deku is Unconscious basically and can't activate His Quirk. Seriously people be forgetting basic physics.
It was a stab not a cut crimson bolt.....kinda different there
@Crimson Bolt Stabbing and cutting are two different things, buddy. If you're cutting, you need something sharp, but if you're stabbing, you need something pointy; the edges of Asta's swords are dull, but their tips are pointy.
Death Battle didn't defy anything.
I mean at least Asta won cause from what I know there should be no world in which he loses. Like sure Izuku is strong but he should be weaker than Asta. The easiest way of seeing this is by how Yuno is almost mountain level in early black clover while Deku is at max mountain level currently while Yuno has grown much stronger since then and Asta scales to him.
Maybe if this was a hypothetical adult Izuku he could win because then he could using something close to like 200-300 OFA in short bursts via a mix of OFA, Fa Jin, and Gear Shift but like this nah he never stood a chance.
In this case asta is indeed faster but overdrive should have giving a means to catch up and also allow deku to just slap him around in the battle field I just feel like this was down to quickly and could have waited till both series was over also asta new ability would just pretty much erase everything around him physically and magic alike but that was never introduced as well
mainly because it wouldn't be a death battle video at all if he could just erase deku just like that
They lowballed asta so bad didn’t include most of his feats and Deku still lost😭
He won any are you bitching
@Carlosatm17 yet he will still lose
Deku got the same treatement
@some_shitposting_idiot still asta way stronger then deku physically and mentally he can take beating from people who outscale city/continental attacks and villiams who can put you in 1000 tons of gravity just like casual.
@Yeah had being past tense, but they're still swords 💀 and anti magic still amplifies Asta's physical capabilities even if he couldn't cut Deku in half at based it'd still cut through skin 💀
Remember Deku doesn't outscale his own ability defensively and he's mid island level
Deku: I'll form a plan of attack!
Asta: I have a plan; Attack!
@goofy he beat Lady Nagant with strategy. So that’s wrong
AYO😂
I was so scared that Deku won near the end, I would have been so pissed...
AIZEN: IT WAS ALL APART OF MY PLAN
@Deathmare Really? I don't remember any significant feats from Harry Potter. Especially their speed.
"Huge frightening pectorals on a tiny screaming goblin child" bro didn't have to do him like that😭🤣🤣💀💀
WTF why asta is so nerfed in this video? First he is not this stupid, second his is much more faster than ligh, Deku even stand a chance. Third, he don't use three swords. like zoro...
@Gabriell Reno Lmaoo
Cause in reality Asta might not be as dominating against deku as you think he is cause oh god I have some crazy crazy proof that could take my heroes anime to a whole different stratusfere
My dude they're both nerfed deku is unknowingly nerfed because his feats were grossly glossed over and low-key somehow if you see this reply so I can prove it to you just like I've single handedly proved it to everyone else that's said that to me I have footage I have facts from real world and anime logic test and ill tell you just how broken these ppl truly are
he does use a sword with his mouth that one time he got both of his arms broken though. Not 3 at once, but still.
Otherwise, all true.
Asta having the same stragety as TSF Goku. Hit him harder lol.
This season finale is going to be a strange one. It may be because he beat Broly and Janemba, but Gogeta's my favorite of the fusions. No offense, but anyone else notice how Vegito wasn't the one who beat his opponents?
The people who’ve been reading both the manga knew who was going to win this. Nonetheless, I appreciate Death Battle for making the fight look closer than it actually would’ve been.
@game universe Unless the magic congures a physical thing with actual weight and not just an explosion shaped like something, the average well built dude could deflect the majority of magic attacks because things that make those sized explosions, aren't nearly as heavy as you think they are.
@Thanos like jokes aside fr
@Jr and Asta took out the king of hell that crumbled an entire kingdom by just being there as he used gravity magic,
A demon the size of at least a skyscraper that was about to evaporate the entire clover kingdom in one attack
And a devil that could manipulate reality with word soul magic, a devil fusion that made a sun consisting of fire and ice the size of an entire kingdom and hit it back with pure force (as anti magic isnt like pong where it it touched it, it just instantly repels it, he has to be able to put the right amount of force behind it to hit it back)
And a guy in ep60 that absorbed the elemental spirit of fire said to be able to evaporate the ocean and Asta tanked an attack from him in base
So I think we're square
This guy is everywhere
@sharebear421 indeed....but I think they are starting to step up their game now
In all honesty, this was a good match up, but as someone who loves to read the manga for both BNHA and Black Clover, I would have to say that considering they're both on their final arcs, I feel like death battle should've waited for both series to finally end so that we can what they're both TRULY capable of, because Asta right now could destroy at least like a whole country while Midoriya is fighting someone who could potentially destroy the country and both haven't even reached the height of their powers yet especially Midoriya who hasn't even awakened the rest of his predecessor's quirks, but even if Midoriya won, I feel like it was too early for this match up, I at least wanted to see them at full power for real 😔
Same
That’s how I feel about it
I feel there was one calculation missing in this fight and that's the fact that Asta never had to tank the spells that could destroy kingdom's, granted his physical abilities are absurd with this 10 000 push-up a minute but I think that's more to the fact that he can't count. Even in his own series he gets physical overpowered by the lion lady and Yami.
they also highballed the f out deku making him over hundred thosand times stronger than tzar bomb in one punch
@srdjan455 Yami would overpowere anyone in MHA verse in strength even all might, and mereoleona uses reinforcement magic to enchance her physical strength
@srdjan455
Yeh, cause he needs relative physical strength to repel the magic(such as when he and Yuno could not stop Licht’s magic beam). He also tanks the magic power of the magic head on.
Stuff that support this is:
•He could defend against Zagred’s word magic. Which were threats to being, again, above Pitoli when he did the feat, like Spirit Drive Yuno, Licht, the first Wizard King, and Dark Elf Pitoli. And this is important because Zagred’s word magic was purely physical and not magical(ergo, was immune to Anti-Magic).
•He could tank Dante’s gravity amped punches. Dante is noted to be superior to Zagred as well, making Asta surviving these punches WAY more impressive. And it should be noted that, even in Black form which has Anti-Magic coursing through his entire body, he cannot erase the mana that mages use to physically amp themselves. This is shown in full effect against Mereleona and Elf Luck. Meaning he took the full force of these magically enhanced punches head on himself. And since they’re amped with magic, they should logically scale to their own magic output.
@ICTON animations I guess in physical strength?
He later fought Dark Elf Pitoli, who was directly stated to be vastly stronger than when he did this feat.
He also fights beings way stronger than him afterwards. Like Zagred and Dante
Honestly feel like a more fitting matchup would have been meliodas vs Asta. Deku and Asta have being an underdog that was thought to be powerless? Meliodas and Asta both both fight with swords, demonic connections with a black demonic transformation, both have anti-magic with Asta's swords and Meliodas full counter. Asta loves a nun and Meliodas loves a goddess so there's another connectionHonestly feel like a more fitting matchup would have been meliodas vs Asta. Deku and Asta have being an underdog that was thought to be powerless? Meliodas and Asta both both fight with swords, demonic connections with a black demonic transformation, both have anti-magic with Asta's swords and Meliodas full counter. Asta loves a nun and Meliodas loves a goddess so there's another connection
I heard that the reason they didn’t want to have Asta vs Meliodas was that nearly all the crew of DeathBattle just genuinely didn’t like him. Which is says a *_whole lot_* when they have even made their favorite characters(like Goku and Sonic) die in their show and made characters they didn’t like win. Somehow Meliodas was one of the characters they just genuinely didn’t want to cover
I think putting out that video is kind of risky. It always is when a story is not yet finished.
Also, I think the misunderstood gearshift a bit… it can increase the speed of any ability and let’s you use it with another.
For the second user that meant he basically was really fast, cause he had no other quirk, but for Deku that means he can combine his quirks.
So he could potentially make a floating smoke screen fa jin and let people implode if used correctly.
We simply haven’t seen the full extent yet.
I think they did this mainly because they already had an idea that Asta was going to win anyway at this point in his ark and thought it be fun to make and show off My Hero and Black Clover to people who don't know either show. Which is the point of this series, not to only prove winners but to show cool content to people who don't know anything about these characters
Even though asta won y’all forgot zetten his new ki ability and y’all also forgot his new union form and abilities from the time skip
I’m glad death battle did the classic death battle analysis (a lot of things either interpreted wrong or just…wrong) or else asta would’ve blitzed him in a second.
@Vergil Sparda Asta won. So it doesn’t matter
@TrueBlue42 well when you brandish yourselves as “accurate” you shouldn’t have the leeway to get that many things wrong.
@Erik Pepper then you obviously haven’t done your research.
The fight is for entertainment purposes do you know how boring it would be if Asta just one shotted Deku?
No, Deku should have won.
"Deku would lose"
-also conveniently ignores half of his abilities-
Good job. You can do fake math based off a non canon movie but can't be bothered to do research actual source lol
U realize they didn't have Asta do more than half of his abilities as well right?
Just an idea for a battle though I doubt it would occur it would make for some killer action
Pride from Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood
Vs
Lucy of Elfen Lied, with their similar power set and attitude it would be a really good fight.
Similar powerset? Yes. But judging from the feats lucy had in her fight with carnage and what we've seen of pride, he's gonna get smoked.
Lucy's vectors can reach the upper atmosphere in minutes at most
Pride's shadows can be blocked by Ed who's greatest speed feat is dodging a bullet
Lucy's vectors can rip people and metal apart like butter.
Pride's shadows have been blocked by the teenaged Ed.
Lucy's vectors can create explosions which can potentially erase pride's shadows.
Lucy's shadows are invisible while pride's shadows can be seen.
The only thing pride has going for him is durability (since he took a beating from a lion chimera for minutes on end), alchemy (which weakens his shell body even after one transmutation, which is why he doesn't do it often), and intelligence/experience
TL;DR pride's gonna see the light.
Anybody else feel like the feats they used are pretty biased, astas "light speed" wasn't a reaction, it was just blind luck, and deku's strength feet was from before he could use ofa at 100% without injury (which they forgot to mention) meaning without any other quirks he can pull that off the whole fight and gear shifts increased speed means 100% becomes 120% plus fa-jin doubling that, and deku moved so fast that someone with multiple sensory abilities couldn't keep track of him
The point was that Asta's sneeze pushed him SO fast that it made him dodge a light beam that was mid-fire. Doing that would actively require his body to move out of the way that fast. It wasn't meant to be a feat of reactions
The moment there was mainly to make it funnier(they did the same for Hulk vs Broly, where there was indeed greater multipliers to pull from, but it largely didn't matter and the Umar _bow chika bowow_ feat was funnier), Asta immediately after that deflects multiple of the same laser with his sword point blank, has multiple more feats of blocking lasers and light, and scales to multiple characters who also have such FTL feats. All of which, was before the timeskip and their powerups where they get even more powerful.
Yes, but Asta's feat also upscales just as much(he later fights characters like Dark Elf Pitoli, Zagred, and Dante, who's power were directly noted as being literal leagues above Pitoli when he did the feat. And he fought em before the timeskip and before he got his Devil Union form), and scaling to the Salamander would bring him FAR too above for this to matter anyway. So noting it would mean jack for the verdict.
No, cause the FTL feats against Shigaraki is also fairly late series and required multiple quirks for Deku to really match. Asta's FTL feats were VERY early in the series, in base, and upscales very much cause Black Clover be like that.
I'm sad Boomstick didn't say Asta Deku-rated the floor with blood.
Best Lines:
"I just gotta hit him really hard"
"I don't know what Detroit is, but I've had enough of it"
"YOU WANTED MY BEST?!?! HERE IT IS!!!" (All might vs Might Guy reference)
"Take that... Detroit..."
Asta feels exactly the same way about Detroit as I do.
That ending with Mr. Satan though. That was priceless
Hercule: Ugh! Time out!!!! I can’t fight him! I’ve got a stomach ache!
ok
@Gavin Bunting Kirby is really something else.
@Wii U - The Underrated Console unless your somebody like Kirby. But I get your point.
@Gavin Bunting Fat Buu can effortlessly destroy planets and is near unkillable due to regeneration.
Nah he'll be fine, after all, the rules are not to kill, so he just suffered a very severe injury
I feel like Terra from FF6 vs. Viola from Bayonetta 3 would be a good match-up.
"Take that detroit" I feel that
That fight was honestly kinda fun to watch. I didn't care that much about either character, but at least the match was even in some ways.
@Prince that's cool
idk about mha i've watched it it's good but def watch black clover it's so good especially after a while dont give up on it no matter what it is such a good anime
So with Astas swords the principle is actually consistent. As in manga and other fights with Vetto his swords can all cut or not cut. Even before the katana was introduced Asta has been seen cutting Vetto and Ladros. Asta had cut Ladros with his blade with black meteorite and peirced Vetto with his sword. So his swords can always cut. They are only blunt because Asta normally doesn't want to kill people. You can also add the word soul demon fight where him and Yuno cut its heart in half.
Edit: Asta has also been seen cutting a whole fortress in half with a swing of his sword that practically touched the sky
@Chugs4Life asta countered an attack in the manga that actually would've decimated the country they did scale it wrong
@RJ_sensess That's more an observation than actually concrete. It wouldn't be the first time death battle got an observation wrong. Plus, there are contradictions to the swords just being blunt on things that are not magic.
They did say it the enemy doesn’t have magic it’s a blunt weapon
@Murloc Masterthen a better match up would be the demon lord or Kumoko herself from So What Im a Spider. Just need to figure out whether they're skills are magical or not cause otherwise Kumoko stomps Asta with hax.
@whooper He's talking about the other swords. Death Battle said his other swords beside his katana can't really cut and is meant for blunt damage. The guy is trying to say it was shown that they can be used for more than just clubbing an enemy.
Ya know, I had to swallow my positive bias towards mha and reconsider my stance on this. Someone described deku’s and all might’s strongest attacks as city level threats. Astra (now mind you I know nothing about him) looks like his attacks can threaten a nation.
@Trousrz Your are right. Sorry, again, I don’t watch the show. Thank you for the clarification!
His attacks are actually continental to small planet
Something not mentioned at all is that Deku has two way communication with all of the Vestiges inside him amd the fact Deku can combine his multiple quirks for added affects. Gear Shift alone is only a 20% boost, sure, but Gear Shift + Fa Jin + One For All is much more than just a speed boost. Gear Shift adjusts speed while ignoring intertia, and it also can affect whatever Deku touches, not just himself. I think yall did a disservice to only look at raw power feats but I guess thats okay cause it keeps it consistent with how you do this series. There were a million different ways Deku could have have won that objectively.
He would lose in every possible outcome
Just watch brokus video on this deku doesn't scale close to asta.
Death battle clearly doesn't know how to power scale anime characters they should stick to their comic bias
EXACTLY Asta should've killed Deku in 1 hit
Man, the Mr. Satan part at the end cracked me up omgg
I like how Asta went into Zoro mode 😂
Exactly
I always wanted to see Asta do 3 sword style 😃
Zoro trained asta during the timeskip duh
I was confused on you meant but I get it now the three sword style
Me too
Can you do a death battle video between Asta and Meliodas next?
Can we have thragg vs thanos- I feel like that would be interesting
I love deku but he legit didn't have a chance. Asta scales far higher in every regard, his verse is just way stronger than deku's. Even Manga deku with all his quirks realistically would be fodder to current anime Asta
How is it similar if you guys say shigaraki dodged the lasers clearly trying to avoid them and asta just flat out dodged it in his sleep is that not different asta clearly showed little to no effort where as the other had to try and avoid it
"are swords supposed to be sharp?"
-Deku
If so it would already ended in less than 2 minutes.
he said "Aren't swords suppose to be sharp?"
For real ahaahaha. If swords were sharp Zeke bah' ha would have been dead in the beginning 🤣😂🤣
Hell, half that!
I just had a interesting Death Battle match up. I hope more people agree so we can see it. Who has the better defense, The Shield Hero Naofumi Iwatani from The Rising of the Shield Hero or Maple the Walking Fortress from Bofuri: I Don't Want to Get Hurt so I'll Max out my Defense? I think it'll be an interesting fight considering how creative they are.
Haven't fully caught up in Black Clover so I'm not sure, but that might have been a reference to Zoro's 3 sword style when Asta put a 3rd sword in his mouth
Yeah it's a reference, because asta never did that style in the manga
I just thought of something remember the battle between ultron and sigma they should do one between ultron and brainiac. Both are highly intelligent planet destroying AI
I don't know if anyone noticed, but the theme of this fight is a remix of the fight music used for the all might vs might guy battle
"I dont know what detroit is, but I've had enough of it" and "Take that detroit" Truer words have never been spoken, thank you asta
Sounds like someone who never lived in Detroit
Lmfao.
The only truer words are from a Michigander.
Detroit on 🔝
Should had been ohio

Well the attack they used to show asta being stronger wasn’t actually stopped by asta it was stopped by Julius novachrono and also the attack wouldn’t have destroyed the whole nation it was meant to kill all the humans in the nation so it didn’t even have as much strength as they said it did
yeah it wasn't a good comparison they should've used him cutting a kingdom in half without even trying
Thanks death battle for doing one of the battles I requested
"Gimme the goddamn book!" I would bet everything I own that this is the first time Boomstick has ever said this.
I'm surprised no one mentioned izuku's crying. I mean, at one point, he cried so hard he didn't only made himself a fountain, but also stuck his legs to the ground.
Same
I'm more surprised no one mentioned that midoriya snapped out of shinso hypnosis with OFA; can talked to the previous users of OFA; also defeated shinso, gentle, lady nagate, wolfram, nine, flect turn; dodged nine laser fingers, flect turn security lasers, and Beros target seeking arrows at 5-8%; has slight incredible pain resistance; and more
It's literally his quirk
Or the fact that Asta’s screams is so loud in the Original Japanese at the beginning of the anime. It makes the audience’s (us) ears bleed.
Yes @雲Nepheles.
I LOVE ASTA! ❤️ That was an awesome fight! I love Deku as well, but you guys broke it down to the T! Thank you for this fight!
@solo8123 and that's still low balling it I said deny would be at least 4 times faster than light or higher because weakened all might was able to go light speed so in his prime if we going by his power differences in both stages of his life he was 40 to 60xs weaker than before so that means if we multiply that he would be what 60xs faster than light but I'm tryna make it fair for you asta stans
That just dont make sense 😂 Deku's gear shift 5 mins wouldve killed Asta
How heavy are the spoilers on both of asta and deku’s powers, Im an anime only watcher and would hate to get ruined on their endgame powers 😭😭
I loved how they reacted to each others different powers.
"Aren't swords supposed to be sharp?"
"How are you not using magic?!!!!!"
Also this fight was basically the nerdy jock vs the dumbass jock
@JJ W "He is a battle genius and can adapt on his enemy."
They mention how deku does this, ignore how Asta does this, then proceed to ignore how Deku does this so Asta can get a win. Deku always fought at massive disadvantages and had friends cover for him, same with Asta. The difference is that Deku has on more than one occasion done the war of attrition strategy which is something Asta can't do when he unions with his adopted devil brother, and Deku has the speed, felixibility, AND QUIRKS to avoid Devil forms onslaught of attacks. But of course they can't have Asta lose in devil form, people wouldn't understand that because I don't think the manga ever showed an enemy smart enough to wait the timer during a 1v1.
This isn't a turnbased fight where you stand there and take hits, but that's literally what this ended up being.
@Joel why spread false information so people can remember something? pretty much 70 percent of anime heros don’t look like they can do anything, the whole vid was a mess
@SamuraiJay yeah they were only doing that so some fans could say look I remember when he did that and once again asta can be smart all he wants asta only said I have to hit him really hard cause look at deku would you think he could blow up a island he looks like a kid playing dress up who couldn't afford a Superman cape
@Joel I mean if somebody is saying that your character and your characters goal was copied off somebody else’s, they made him seem dumb, like all I gotta do is hit him hard, asta is smarter than that, and as for asta having a sword in his mouth, he only did that because he couldn’t use his hands, HE has never used his swords like that except that,
@SamuraiJay I see where you're coming from but counterpoint #1: why does even anyone even care that he had the sword in his mouth it's just a little bit of a thing for the fans to look at and go oh look I remember when he did that there were trying to make it look like he's a rip off of One piece they weren't trying to disrespect him in any way the one piece being the wizard king and the pirate king was just a joke. it was a joke they weren't actually trying to say he was a ripoff the fans and you apparently who isn't a fan took that way too deep. And he did once use a sword in his mouth correct me if I'm wrong people who actually read the Manga but I'm pretty sure you put a sword in his mouth last time when it hit two hands were broken I don't know I don't really like the anime I have only seen the first episode and stopped watching. Counterpoint #2 yes they lowball him a lot mostly because like I said before they're trying to show the ma Chase stands that even if this character was at his weakest he would still lose they said this before in the behind the scenes I don't know if you have premium. Even if you you don't they've done this a lot almost every other death battle when the lowball the loser and highball the winner to show that even with the benefit of the doubts this loser would still lose. I don't know why people keep feeling like they're disrespecting their character just cuz they made a lot of jokes about this okay they made jokes about deku 2 it's not like they favored one over the other these are 40 and 50 year old men I promise you they don't care who wins they probably just care about being paid and getting the winner right. And the sounding dumb parts you need to look at this through the characters eyes if you saw deku a little boy with green hair with a yellow cape would you take him seriously he didn't take him seriously and I wouldn't either not to mention he's not as smart as you think he is he doesn't first walk in and come up with a strategy and every single phase and then halfway through the fight he starts thinking that's not as clever as you think it is that's like a Ben 10 level clever thinking halfway through the fight they're right deck is way more tactically smarter.
This is what I would like to see for a death battle Kazuya Mishima from Tekken vs Rugal Bernstein from King Of Fighters
16:39 is that a stun lock
I didn't really care who won since I liked both characters, but you can tell that Asta was completely favored in this because they covered more info on him and kept using his "feat" of "dodging" a laser in his sleep, even though it was a joke moment that they took far too seriously. They didn't properly even go through Deku's full feats, like when he helped All Might break that giant metal cube from the first movie, or when he ran so fast that literally became a living lightning bolt, and punched so fast that his fists ignited when he fought Flect Turn. But oh well, that's Death Battle for you, getting info wrong
They severely downplayed Asta by not covering his recent feats and only using the anime
@cooper ae fair enough,
Asta still claps tho
@The Blue Dolphin Gamer no
@Dragon Lord no, but it gets really close sometimes
I wanna watch this one but I havnt finished Black Clover and guarantee they will be power set spoilers for Asta. Which is fine obviously, it's death battle thats to be expected. Just sad I gotta skip this one for now 😪
I love how Deku's thinking all this strategy before the fight and Asta's like "I just got to hit him REALLY hard."
Asta’s “hit ‘em really hard” BS tactic is shonen protagonists in a nutshell!
Hey if it works it works
Asta is faster than light and continental can be scaled to planetary.
Mostly always asta plan of attack simple but good
@Alejandro Rodriguez Espinosa my dog
This is my first time watching a death battle so I don't know, but is that considered a brutal ending or a less brutal ending?
This aibt that brutal compared to other deaths
Compared to Omni-Man VS Homelander this death was pretty chill.
I already know who will win before even seeing the fight
This fight ain’t even fair 💀💀
Deku is like country level I believe
I think Asta is like Planetary level
Really Asta is planetary lvl i thought he was country lvl
Ngl this fight would never be this close…Asta one shots
they nerfed asta so bad lmaooooo
Man, I thought Deku was gonna win that one
YEAH DEKU SHOULD HAVE WON!
Nah not really the two in reality cannot be compared
Finally we shall see who is the better fusion
Wasn't this the 6th anime battle that both characters was in jump force? Because all i remember was
1. Jotoro vs Kenshiro
2. Sasuke vs Hiei
3. Madara vs Aizen
4. Naruto vs Ichigo
5. Deku vs Asta
6. Doesn't because its DBX but (Law vs Kenshin)
My wife and I would both love to see Eowyn (Lord of the Rings) vs Arya Stark (Game of Thrones). I brought it up casually once, and now she won't stop arguing with me over it lol
I feel like this episode could've waited a bit. Both mangas are near their ending arcs and they both seem to have more potential to grow.
@Everest You’re definitely underaged. Contradicted yourself entirely in that poor attempt at “who’s the bigger weeb, me or the MHA fandom”.
@The one ☝️ Delusional MHA fans.
Many characters in Black Clover would defeat Deku with no problem.
It's not even a competition, Asta alone would solo all of MHA verse. The only one who would give him a fight is All Might himself. Everyone else wouldn't even come close to touching him.
@some_shitposting_idiot cope and seethe harder. Black Clover fans seething over their trash irrelevant series. No wonder why it’s manga sales are failing.
@Amuro Ray nah deku is building level and slow af
My hero is a trash franchise where everything is pathetic
@Amuro Ray "survived actual nukes" hmmm yeah of course, anyway don't let this distract you from the fact that bungee gum has the properties of both rubber and gum
I really want to know how Boomstick has still been doing that voice for so long and hasn't completely f*cked his vocal chords.
I'd like to see Bowser face off against the kung fu Panda 🐼
All voiced by jack black 😂
16:23
I like the small detail of how Asta's VA used the fan translations from the black clover manga which originally used "magic emperor" before the official translations changed it to "Wizard king."
@Sir Smiteful agreed
Might wanna set that to 16:20
Anti Squirrel Lawn Laser System... sounds like something to look into...
what about ash vs red, I have long wanted to know which of them is more powerful
This fight was how I for seen it, there was no way Deku would win.
Regardless of how you look at it one for all is a broken quark,
And Deku is a glass Cannon no change no improvement, and in my mind mentally disabled and borderline psychotic and impulsive liar.
Wait wait wait???!!! This is a Hero? He more a Joker/ Deadpool baby that want to be all might clone...
Make Toga look like a normal girl in comparison
Its about the two who were born as Losers and the Lowest in the society with nothing special about them, Unlike Goku is a Legendary Saiyan God, Naruto who is the child of prophecy, Luffy who had the power of a God since his childhood, or even Katsuki and Yuno being their rival Prodigies. Asta and deku were losers born with a mutation and without A quirk in a world dominated by Quirks in their everyday lives and having no magic in a world where magic is everything. these two are just legendary.
So they both don’t have weaknesses?🤣
The next death battle is going to be HELL for everyone and we know it
GOGETA FOR THE WIN
hold up didn't deku said "ain't swords suppose to be sharp"? so that means deku could have died there but was saved because the sword wasn't sharp 😱 but in the end he died because I think his body cannot hold much more power anymore because of that punch.
The fight is crazy but song is hard.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
"I don't know what Detroit is, but I've had enough of it!"
Me too, Asta. Me too.
At least it ain't Ohio.
Edited: DAMMIT, people already used the Ohio jokes!
That Detroit thing was so annoying

@The Warrior Returns lol they did'nt use current asta either.
