#deathbattle #deathbattlereaction #reaction - Розваги
There's a video game coming out soon called Black Myth: Wukong, which is an action game along the lines of Devil May Cry and Dark Souls starring Sun Wukong. It's been in development for some time, and looks incredible. You guys should check it out.
So gods may cry: praise the sun edition?
Loki says he's burdened with Glorious Purpose. Sun Wukong is complete randomness and a complete absence of impulse control who managed to piss off everyone with his obsession with being the absolute G.O.A.T. The Monkey King was basically the first internet troll.
As someone who has read through the Original Journey to the West, Death Battle didn't mention the ridiculous number of other powers and abilities Sun Wukong posses that could have won him this fight, Firstly He was once able to freeze time over a city for an hour to help his comrades escape from the local government, He is able to remove the souls of people, Manipulate the weather and even create clones of those that are weaker than him with ALL their powers and abilities, Especially since Wukong's clones don't lose any power.
This isn't even the extent of it however, At the end of the Journey To The West, Wukong achieved Nirvana, becoming Enlightened. Enlightenment allows one to be completely free of all concpets of existence, no longer being tied down by reality, a enlightened creature cannot be effected by the rules of existence any longer, He is incapable of dying as the literal concept of death OR life do not apply to him anymore, nor does any other concept of existence, it is infact impossible to TRULY describe a enlightened being as someone Enlightened is no longer bound by ANYTHING.
Hercules still beats him by being stronger and faster and having poisoned arrows
@@jefftonsman They are equals in strength because both are able to lift immesaurable weight, Wukong is quintillions of times faster than light though that part is meaningless if you consider Enlightened wukong who is omnipresent so speed really isn't a factor for him and lastly, Again if we consider Enlightened wukong which is wukong's peak, no concepts of existance (such as death) apply to him so no poison could kill him, because there is no killing him, he isn't alive or dead, he is and isn't.
@@banrajanand7983 no they aren't. Sun wu kong didn't lift infinite weight. The mo.ent a third mountain twmeportws on top of him he was shut down and couldn't move. Literally buddhist experts came out and said mount sumerou doesn't hold up the sky
@@banrajanand7983 no he isn't. Hervules has fought apollo who has cross the universe instantly also and the Greek universe has been calculated as bigger and thus made hervules faster. Read the g1 prediction blog for the fight
@@banrajanand7983 enlightened waking was not considered and neither ascended hercules so no just making stuff up
Fun Fact: Sun Wukong was based off the Hamuma, a Monkey faced God in Hinduism. It was said that as a child. He flew across the solar system to reach the sun. Thinking it was a fruit. But was struck down by a lighting god.
Is that the same as Hanuman?
@@BJGvideos spelling error.
@@tommcburney301 Aah thought it was maybe just in another language.
Basically, it the prequel to Goku vs Superman. As both characters represent the Eastern and Western comic entertainments. For example, Hercules what's the inspiration for most modern superheroes like Superman, Wonderman, and Thor. While Sun Wukong was the inspiration for modern anime protagonists like Son Goku, and Monkey D. Luffy.
Hmmm I would’ve thought the inspiration Thor would be the Thor from Norse myth.
@@Retrovorious I mean in terms of superhero stereotypes.
Not only did Sun Wukong be made into many Anime and other shows and One I grew up on Was Monkey Magic done in the early 80's was based on his story of journey into the west. I also liked the style they did for this battle hope to see more reactions.
without Wukong, we won't get Goku, Naruto, Luffy or any other animes and shows that were inspired by him
Sun Goku is literally Sun Wukong in Japanese
For more Sun Wukong I really reccomend you to check out "Legends Summarized: The Journey To The West" by Overly Sarcastic Production. Charming artstyle and a great narrator for the incredible story.
your eyes are not tricking you. that was a very young ryan gossling playing hercules in the short-lived series "young hercules".
Sun from RWBY is one of many fictional characters based on Son Wukong. Another well known one is Goku from Dragon Ball
Glad you guys enjoyed this one. I'm slowly making my way through your playlist and think I'll be all caught up soon. I'd recommend Jak & Daxter vs Ratchet and Clank death battle as well
Plus, sure, the arrow dipped in Hydra blood may have been able to kill wukong with his first method to obtain inmotality but not after erasing his name from the book of death. Even if he got hit or damaged with the arrows he can't die because death literally can't see him anymore and wouldn't come for him. The same reason not even the buddha could kill him and he just imprisoned him.
Well, Buddha is pacifist, that is, he wouldn't kill if lesser punishment is not enough. But he will not stop or get mad on someone if they kill in his presence.
Theres a lot of anime that's inspired by journey to the west, it's crazy! I hope death battle does more battles like this, it was a really nice change of pace to match up mythological heroes!
This was the 1st fight involving the mythological figures in history and did really in views back then
They even talked about the possibility of Odin vs Zeus at some point ad its the next most wanted mythological fight requested
And it's wrong
It's still going to be fun if it comes.
The first matchup of its kind, a mythology fight. Here's hoping Odin vs Zeus is soon.
They talked in their casts about Odin vs Zeus at one point
And it's wrong
@@jefftonsmanNo it's not
@@wingedbluj1674 it is according to buddhist mythology experts next
@@jefftonsman There’s really only one feat that Buddhist mythology experts say is wrong and that’s the infinity feat for Sun. Even then, those same experts still say that Sun would win.
FUN FACT : GOKU IS INSPIRED FROM SUN WUKONG
Half of all anime is inspired from Journey to the West
Sun Wukong is a chinese deity, known as the Great Sage Equal to Heaven. He has 72 transformations (the number actually means limitless tranformations). His name, if translated into japanese becomes Son Goku. You know, the boy with monkey tail, can ride nimbus cloud, have a staff that can grow long, and trained by god (Kami). Current Goku has like ... 7 transformations and challenged gods left and right, my bad its an anime!
This battle was the most entertaining to witness two gods facing off each other and witness some stunning animation done for it 😄 also it seems interesting that Sun’s voice is being Sun from RWBY being used in this battle.
No it's not.
@@Maswartz226you are wrong
Sun Wukong is also a character in RWBY as well.
Nope. This Sun Wukong is voiced by Alex Mai - who, ironically, voiced one of Wukong's skins in SMITE.
@@MrAuthor3DS oh that’s cool as I thought it was Sun’s voice from RWBY
How do I keep forgetting this one exists!? It's one of the best and most unique Death Battles. Every time I come across this one again, I think "This is one of the best" and yet forget whenever I think back on past Death Battles.
This was the first mythological Death Battle and it absolutely killed with the animation they went with! ❤️🔥
just a note of how the death battles are done. they go through it as if the characters have done a hundred battles against each other. and they would claim who would win the majority.
Hervules would beat him the majority of the time
@@jefftonsmanhow? Hercs only win condition was the poison and that woudnt even work on him
@@darthmenace2033 yes it would work on him and he is stronger and faster. Read the g1 blog.
I think this battle was them throwing a bone to the Dragon Ball fans that are mad about Goku losing to Superman.
Superman vs Son Wukong seems like a more even match up.
Superman was based on Hercules and Son Goku was based on Sun Wukong. But, Sun Wukong > Hercules and Superman > Goku.
@@gxstlyno hercules beats sun wu kong
Hercules beats sun wu kong
Are you a clown? Sun wu king isn't isn't multiversal
Sun Wukong would DESTROY Superman. Remember Wukong has the 72 Transformations and is downright indestructible and immortal. It doesn't mean Wukong can transform into 72 things. Nonononono, that is a complete misconception and misunderstanding of his abilities. 72 Transformations mean Wukong has 72 UNIQUE and separate powers/abilities, with shapeshifting being ONLY ONE OF THEM. The rest of the powers make Wukong pretty much an omnipotent character.
The others include superstrength, superspeed, flying, phasing through ground, phasing through rocks/walls, traveling underground while phased through the ground (like Shadow Cat from X-men), firebeathing, breathing underwater, moving through water like moving through air, creating impregnable wards/barriers, paralysing others with a single finger point, animating inanimate objects (how he made his cudgel fight autonomously while he chilled), creating copies of himself OR the opponent (Wukong could totally create copies of Superman and have them gang on him), vanquishing Deities and Demons (part of his 72 Transformations is the ability to kill Deities and Demons themselves permanently. That's why the Deities and Demons are so scared of him), telekinesis, summoning a specific object to you (like Harry Potter's Acio spell), summoning and destroying souls (even ghosts will die a second time), calling for a Deity's aid (like if he call for them they will know it in the Heavens. Then they will descend to aid Wukong as quickly as they can because none of them will want to piss him off), creating healing potions and pills, always knowing his directions and where to go (Wukong is like a cosmic GPS. You can throw him to another planet in another galaxy in another universe and he will know the way back to Earth. That's why in all illustrations for Journey to the West Wukong is always in front, because he knows the way and is guiding the party), reading one's fate and future through Astronomy, changing fate and destiny with magic (Wukong can change the fate of others, it is part of his powers), substitution technique (like Naruto's Substitution Jutsu. When Wukong takes a blow, he can substitute an object to take his place and escape. He can even use a clone of himself to do this to feign death while escaping), astral projection, entering dreams (not even Freddy is safe in his homeground. Remember he can kill demons and ghosts), invisibility, summoning animals from the vicinity, commanding and controlling animals, immune to fire and burns, can eat ANYTHING and not get sick (including rocks, glass, poison, heck even Putin's radioactive tea), immune to freezing and cold, can shoot lasers from his eyes (that's right, he can do Optic Blasts), can survive decapitation and reattach the head, can summon rain, can summon wind, can call the clouds to block the sky, can wield all weapons with max proficiency even weapons he touch and use for the very first time (he can totally use a gun or drive a tank or fighter jet because technically they are weapons too).
So far that's all that I can remember and name off the bat, I need to reread the Journey to the West to remember the others.
Oh my goodness!!!!. .im sooo happy they finally did it😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. . After months of asking for it
You probably wouldn't know because it was his first movie and he is credited as Arnold Strong. Also the original cut they dub over his voice, and it's a very hilarious low budget movie and worth a watch.
I need that spongebob vs. aquaman death battle. It's a goated battle
The poison arrow wouldn’t kill him, as they stated (As sun wukong has multiple layers of immortality) but at best would incapacitate him. Is that a win? I don’t think so. I think Sun takes the win 100% of the time.
Death Battle has said multiple times that in the cases of characters that can't die, if they're knocked out for a long enough period, it counts as a win. They've covered this when they talked about the possibility of putting Voldemort into a Death Battle, since he has immortality due to the Horcruxes, they talked about it in the Q@A for Darkseid vs Thanos about how even if Thanos could escape the Omega Sanction, it wouldn't be immediately and that would be enough to count as a victory, and other times.
also suns such a menace cuz in myth he got punished many time, eating immortality,steal horses from basically heaven etc its all in the story journey to the east its very good
I recommend reading the book. Journey to the west is a classic.
Kind of a random suggestion but if you want to learn more about Son Wukong’a epic tail i recommend’Overly Sarcastic Productions: journey to the west’ series. Kind of a highlight reel of the monkey kings wildest adventures from the book
A death battle with one side cannot die is hardly fair.
I just love when they make a references to boomsticks IRL divorce from a few years ago
Truly a match of legends.
I absolutely loved learning about Wukong.
Eggman vs Wily DB and Megaman DB Royale reactions plz.
Could work for the next betting season either.
If you want to watch something with Wukong in it: I'd give Lego Monkie Kid a shot. It takes places after he retires in a sense and now acts as a mentor to a kid who took up the name. It has fun characters, better villains, and the animation is jaw dropping.
Not to mention a lot of well known VAs voice the characters like how the Monkey King himself is played by Goku's English voice actor. It all comes full circle.
Oh yes, the battle that set the community on fire. Well, at least it was a good episode.
btw Silver Vs Trunks?
10:05 For context, the Taoist definition of immortal pretty much leans towards a longer life span
12:12 Do note for brevity they just stuck with the translated names.
Fun fact: the VAs for Heracles and Sun Wukong here also voiced versions of them in Dislyte and SMITE (respectively). A-And no, Wukong's VA here isn't Michael Jones.
Fun fact: The first arc of the original Dragonball (so the stuff BEFORE what you watched in abridged) was actually directly modeled after Journey to the West (where Wukong came from). It started off as a silly/jokey direct parody of it.
Sun Wukong translated into Japanese is literally Son Goku-- that's why Goku has a tail, a power pole, and flies on a nimbus (even though these became irrelevant in Z), and the original characters have the exact same initial story role/similar powers. Their journey to get the dragonballs was similar to the literal Journey to the West.
Pigsy = Oolong (both perverted shapeshifting tricksters), Sandy = Yamcha (both weak fighters who never win and meat-headed desert bandits), and ironically, Bulma by default served the Monk Tripitaka role, even though their personalities are polar opposites (unlike Bulma, the monk's all about purity, but like Bulma, he's completely defenseless/needs to be protected and is what the original motive/direction comes from). Wukong's best friend the Ox King also = Chichi's dad, the Ox King.
Oh, and the three-eyed god from the heavens who evenly fought Wukong = Tien (although there are no backstory similarities with that one, just the initial power level/three-eyes gimmick). Wukong's master was also a hermit like Roshi.
All the Saiyan stuff that comes later in Z has almost nothing to do with it though (other than a lot of Shounen tropes in general coming from Journey to the West's storytelling style).
ya this fight was in the bag if u knew that hercules wasnt the only god of strength plus hes only demi god not full full god of strength was cratos. now i wanna see a cratos vs wukong god of strength fight part 2
You are a clown and hervules wins he is stronger faster and arrows bypass everything. The hell does kratos have to do with anything
The minotaur was from -Perseus's- Theseus's tale.
Close. Theseus killed the Minotaur. Perseus killed Medusa and the Kraken.
I always confuse the two. @@fenrisiansummer3777
Another epic battle!
This was a very interesting one, i wonder what other mythical figures they’ll do next?
Who would you like to see in Death Battle next?
By the way, have you heard of any of the Sun Wukong Games?
You should really check out the Thor vs Vegeta Death Battle, one of the best they have done.
Sun Wukong games:
- Enslaved, Black Myth: Wukong & Monkey King Returns
"Can he beat Goku?"
no he is Goku. The original Dragonball was just Journey to the West in cartoon form.
It's Son Wukong in Chinese, Son Goku in Japanese
Hercules beats sun wu kong
@@rhythmkhandelwal2940 and his companions being exactly the same as Sun Wukong's companions in Journey To the West. And all the villains for the first 3 seasons being ripped straight out of Journey to the West. And the fact that you can replace "dragonballs" with "enlightenment" and it's the same script.
If you think about it, Goku had a cloud to ride on. he had the Staff which could change it´s lenght. Also Trunks said "So you are Sun Wukong, right?" and talking about eating...
Based on the info Death Battle provided, I can see why she thought Hercules was smarter, but Sun Wukong is actually wise and clever. He outwits his enemies all the time. He does it even in fights where he has a clear strength advantage just because he likes to mess with people.
Death Battle also forgot to mention Sun Wukong won a 1 vs 100,000 battle against gods.
Oh wow. . They actually did it!!!!!. .. FINALLY 😂😂😂😂
This was a good reaction.
13:52 I love that smug Bethany look far too much! :D
First and it's one of my favorite death battle matchups 😊
Hercules wins
6:45 That’s was Theseus who killed Asterion/the Minotaur. … Yes, that was the Minotaur’s birth name.
You guys *DEFINITELY* need to check out Overly Sarcastic Production’s Journey to the West series. … And their other videos.
Arnold did play Hercules, it was one of his earliest roles. So early in fact that they dubbed over his voice because they thought no one would understand him. "Hercules goes to New York." It's as cheesy as the title suggests it is.
I'm surprised you didn't comment on Sun Wukongs Japanese name being Son Goku. That anime was inspired by wukong, starting it all.
Monkey king is powerful that his immortality has immortality
Should watch sephiroth vs Vergil next
Goku finally got a win in a Death Battle.
I'm obsessed with Journey to the west
You will be geeking again, because galactus vs unicron will be right after goku vs superman. Death battle season 10 finale.
You should check Overly Sarcastic Productions recount the journey to the west. Or ar least the first one, about Sun Wukong
I was wondering if you guys could react to videos from the channel called Oceaniz, he does vids about the Monster Hunter franchise and is a great narrator. He does allow reactions and only asks that people put a link to his channel in the description, I think a good starter would be his vid telling and showing where all the games take place in the franchise.
You guys gotta react to the new goku vs Superman death battle
There is a trailer for the new Fallout TV series coming out on prime video if you wanted to watch it!
Son Goku for DBZ is totally supposed to be Sun Wukong, the monkey king, form the way he acts, to the pigman friend, and his staff weapon is almost exactly the same including how it was meant to be just a pillar holding up a god's house, also you know...monkey people with the power to fight gods.
Sun Wukong sprout a lot of legendary pop culture and tales. He's a prick, but his path of redemption really mellowed him out. I love Sun Wukong because he's the lovable goof with good instincts but is very mischievous. He did lash out a lot to the monk he was traveling with, but he always came back to do the right thing. As a immortal who has very human emotions and reactions, compared to the Jade Emperor or Buddha, it makes WuKong a very enjoyable character in myths and legends.
Cable vs booster gold please
i genuinely was caught offguard when this was announced, like i didn't think religions and myth were allowed, and then my next realisation was the fact we could get jesus
Jesus vs Santa or Jesus vs Buddha
Herc did not fight the hydra alone though and he accidentally shot another Greek figure with hydra poison.....Chiron...the centaur who should is said to become the constillation known.... Sagittarius....my sign
(Me, stupid) IS Greek really considered Western?
Search results:
"Greece is considered the cradle of western civilization"
Me: "well, you learn something everyday, namely I'm stupid."
i like how this is basically the mythology version of Goku VS Superman. only Goku won. hell, it literally said on Sun Wukong's info graphic that Sun Wukong is the chinese equivalent of Son Goku.
Hercules should have won
@@jefftonsmanyou are wrong
@@marquisepixley684 no you are the wrong clown
@@marquisepixley684The guy is spamming this on multiple comments. Odds are he’s a troll looking to annoy people.
Son Wokong-Goku
Pigsy a lecherous pig demon that kidnaps young girls and deceived them with good luxe and Shapeshiftingto Service him.
-Oolong that’s literally the first time they meet him. There’s a reason why he has a collection of lingerie and bunny costumes that would fit a 14 year old girl.
Sandy is a little harder to pin down. Despite his name, he’s actually a water demon, but I believe that Bulma’s blue hair is a reference to the character. Or it’s Yamaha the Desert Bandit. Sand -Desert get it?
Now the monk. He doesn’t arrive in the story of for a long time. Same with the Dragon Ball equivalent. But unlike The Journey to the west, Krillian is the most UnMonk Monk. Hardly the pure spirit destined to deliver the seven scrolls.
As I said.... hydra poison did not kill Chiron instantly...his immortality let him live but in pain....Chiron sacrificed his immortality to save a child that needed a cure by immortality....thus ending chirons life and making his name
If not obvious, Sun Wukong is the inspiration behind a lot of anime and game characters. Goku most off, being a monkey child of great strength and tenacity, a flying cloud, and a size changing pole. Hell, then name "Son Goku" is just the Japanese reading of "Sun Wukong". But beyond that, just his personality has heavily impacted anime. For every protagonist with a seemingly endless appetite, mischievous nature, not being the brightest bulb, and love of fighting, you can thank the Monkey King.
I really hate zeus who wrote the story of those fake gods has a twisted mind
Madara vs Aizen
Heracles never fought the Minotaur.
I'm sorry, that was going to be eating away at me if i didn't say it
No wonder this little weirdo but also cutie turns eventually into Son Goku :>
There’s another major myth in Chinese lore that is often referenced and still talked about. It’s the legend of the Eight immortals. Their deeds are legendary. They were said to have slain demons, given advice to emperors, and lived since the dawn of time. Plus more that is still being discovered in texts. Each immortal was symbolized by a specific item and those items in family crests still to this day. Honestly I don’t know what they actually did because it’s just been passed on for centuries that nobody really knows the exact origin of the myth. My family crest has the flower symbol from the immortals although we do not claim any heritage from them though. We do claim a branch family of one of the old emperors as he gave us a family name.
Neat! Why did the emperor bestow your family a name?
It's not so much that Buddha outsmarted Sun Wukong but more that his reach was far beyond Sun Wukong's understanding. As it said Buddha reached Nirvana essentially he achieved the highest level of enlightenment that made him able to more or less become one with the universe itself. The universe is something that Buddha can control as he is one with the universe.
Son wukong is the trickster god in Chinese myth And strikes Equal to the chinese pantheon
Imagine saying someone being out smarted by literal Buddah, is dumb. That is just silly.
Just going to throw out there that, while the outcome is definitely correct, these two are not equal in speed and strength. Sun Wukong absolutely has the speed advantage and Hercules definitely has the strength advantage.
Believe it or not....i wanted monkey King to win cause I like his funny and mischievous personality.......plus cloning your self from a strand of your hair..... hilarious but effective....herc was also my fav....but because I played sun in a game dota 2 and loved his stuff I wanted him to win.....hahahaha(sun laughing)
Too bad it's not "RWBY" Sun
Sun Wukong is the father of the big three of anime.
Sun Goku from Dragon Ball
Monky D Luffy from One Piece
Naruto Uzumaki from Naruto and Naruto Shippuden. (Boruto: Naruto next Generations dosen't count, because it ruined all the characters we loved and it's boring)
This was a poor matchup lmao
They did Goku vs Superman AGAIN. Round fucking three, this time taking into account transformations that Goku unlocked by the end of the anime adaptation of Super and the manga beyond his God forms. Massive spoilers for the Tournament of Power Arc of Super (it's only good arc imo) and the last two movies and manga content so don't watch it.
They didn't even mention Nirvana or Son wukong being stronger than Buddha. It's quite impossible for Hercules to win this fight because Sun would view Herc as a fictional character.
You are actual clowns making stuff up and hercules would win.
@@rhythmkhandelwal2940 He has insane hax still.
They weren't using their god forms since they're both omnipotent
:)
This battle is garbage and wrong according fo buddhist mythologist experts lmao
Such as?
@@JoeThomas-lu6fy sun lifting infinity even though the moment a third mountain dropped he couldn't move and buddhist experts said mount semurou doesnt hold up the sky. The fact that apollo has crossed the universe instantly and the greek comsos was calced to be bigger in the g1 blog ect.
So you assume that Hercules wins by "intellect and wit", but not Sun Wu Kong. That shows you know absolutely nothing about Sun Wu Kong. You judge him only because he was "outsmarted" by Buddha but don't know that Buddha symbolizes the ultimate divine power that transcends all existence. Human qualities such as "intellect and wit" or "strength" are nothing to that level of existence. Thus, to think in terms of being "outsmarted" by the divine is already an invalid concept. Thus, no being can "outsmart" Buddha. So, it is funny that you based your judgment of Sun Wu Kong on that alone.
Herc did not fight the hydra alone though and he accidentally shot another Greek figure with hydra poison.....Chiron...the centaur who should is said to become the constillation known.... Sagittarius....my sign
