But it wouldn't have worked, because as briefly mentioned, Scooby-Doo is an alien/part alien (see Mystery Incorporated). So all Courage would get from the computer is how to beat a great dane with a speech impediment, not an alien/part alien with a speech impediment. This is also why the god bone didn't work.
@@silvershadow525 You’re still right since after getting hit with the God Bone that Computer suggested, Scooby Doo got back up and hit Courage with a planet eclipsing punch
Yep, I'd like to believe that the battle ended in a draw not only because they were evenly matched in strength, but also because they didn't have it in them to finish off a friend. Eustace, on the other hand... ...Well I'm sure he'll get out of that chest somehow, eventually... Jerk...
My favorite part about this was that this wasn't even a fight. They were extreme, but Scoobs and Courage were in high spirits throughout the fight. They were playing, just like real dogs.
So... let me get this straight. Eustace watches Scooby-Doo turn into the Icon of Sin and pull an Asura's Wrath, only to watch Courage *successfully* counter with a scream that makes the Dragonborn look lazy, and then decides, "Yeah, I can totally take these two. Let's do the ol' Ooga-Booga-Booga, that'll work for sure." Can someone get this man his Darwin Award? I seem to have misplaced mine.
You're underestimating Eustace. He survived a firework explosion that turned him into a constellation of 88 stars. Took a bite from The Shadow. Survived being in the epicentre of Courage's strongest scream, which is a more powerful version of the same scream that shattered the entire sun to pieces
@@connorwood9211Courage is pretty used to people coming back from the most absurd injuries, but he probably didn’t realize how effective Scooby Doo was at regeneration until after he shot
“Standing up to our fears is what makes us brave in the first place. That’s why his name is courage. “ that choked me up. Grew up on this show, you guys did him justice.
I absolutely love the attention to detail this had with its gags that are pulled straight out of their series. -The Scooby Doo intro with the bats. -The monster being animated in 3D like some Courage villains were -The classic Scooby Doo door gag -The weird things behind the doors that Courage opens -The way that despite getting pulled into a box which is torment beyond torment, it just ends with Eustace shouting in an annoyed, muffled way from inside the chest.
The chest demons: [After realizing Eustace isn’t trapped in their with them, they are trapped in there with him] Scooby, for the millionth time, we imprison ghosts, not Satan in human form!
That’s what I’m saying, the mumbling to the speech inflection to the crazed laugh he does at some episodes like at 16:20. Whoever voiced Courage had to be a huge fan of the series
Season 1 Deathbattle: "just dot some projectiles flying here. A few explosion gifs here, there we go." Deathbattle now: "Let's draw Courage pulling an Asura's Wrath on a planet sized Scooby Doo, with his screaming." I love this series.
6:41 Just in case you need a refresher on why Scooby-Doo is an alien: In Scooby-Doo Mystery Incorporated, we learn about the Anunnaki, an ancient godlike alien race that comes to earth every few thousand years. The Anunnaki have no physical forms so they’re forced to possess animal bodies. It is revealed that the animals which can talk are descendants of the Anunnaki. Scooby-Doo is one of them.
Ya know, as someone who hasn't seen Courage in YEARS, I summed up Eustace as "He's not that bad, he's just old and grouchy". I completely forgot that that dude was legitimately on a mission to make Courage suffer and only Muriel interfering primary stopped him. Also, that Courage scream was EPIC!!!
Yeah Eustance is as bad as Boomstick says he is. Eustace will go out of his way to make Courage's life horrible out of pure spite. Reverse Flash had a reason to hate Flash a very petty reason but at least a reason. Eustace has none.
While it doesn’t excuse his actions, he likely acts like that because of his abusive mom and mean brother. It’s very rare, but he does have some moments of genuine niceness in the show.
While most of it doesn't really stick because of the episodic nature of the show, there are actually a ton of moments of character depth and development for Eustace. He has a terrible family that is shown in some episodes and really makes it easy to see how he's such a cruel manchild who would torture Courage over stealing the affection of the only person who's nice to him. Aside from that, there are times where the two have to work together or have character moments together. Like I said, a lot of it doesn't stick, but many episodes show Eustace to be less terrible than he seems.
Scooby's massive fist coming down from orbit vs Courage's scream has no reason to go so hard, but it's so damn cool. I love what they did with this death battle.
I appreciate that when this fight was announced, I thought "What a horrible idea! I don't want to see either of them die! I'd only be happy if it was a draw and they both lived," and then that's literally exactly what happened. 10/10 execution.
17:00 Courage pulling an Asura's Wrath against Scooby was insane. Not only did we get a great animation of my childhood cartoons, but also a reference to one of my favourite games too.
Loved seeing Scooby turn Wyzen. Would make for a perfect excuse for a Power Rangers team up and Scooby outsizes any giant monster. And Courage screaming all the monsters to death Then Courage and Scooby team up against Chakravartin! Then they have a wholesome spring bath like Augus & Asura
@@TerminatorGundam300I find it hilarious that Asura had to rip through space to fight Chakra, but Scooby could do destruction equal to that with a spin dance.
@@CeHee123 oh yeah! Forgot about that XD Asura needed the Mantra Reactor to punch through the galaxy while Courage just needs to scream. Also Chakravartin failed to erase Asura’s existence, but he’ll succeed with Scooby and Courage, only for them to pop back like nothing happened. And he’d repeatedly try to but never get it to stick. Chakravartin: “IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!”
No matter what you think of the result, I think we can all agree it was so satisfying seeing Eustace get his comeuppance for all his heinous actions towards Courage.
@@drinfernodds Same, I wasn't thinking "wow that's a good impression" I was thinking "wow how'd they convince the original voice actor to do this video".
I couldn't agree more. It's really close impersonation, but now that I know I can kind of hear the difference when I think of the pilot version of Hazbin Hotel/Alastor's voice. Still, he did an amazing job. In my opinion most people can do a scooby pretty easily, but courage is a little harder to nail.
@@thekatarnalchemist no it’s been six but they technically never finished their fight since they bailed to do other things. So it was just a stalemate
I think this is one of the most heartwarming ending in Death Battle history! Like seriously the fact the two of them just laugh off the entire fight makes the whole thing wholesome.
Right?, seems like something Cartoon Network would have done in his golden days, you know... when... Adult Swim was actually a Cartoon Network block, that was something xd
Honestly, I thought nothing was going to top Bill v Discord for me, but this definitely did since I loved both shows and the animation felt like it was straight from the show. DB needs to do more cartoon fights like this and Bill v Discord as they seem to be better anymore.
I love how most Scooby doo villains at least have reasons for acting scary (Either for money or for attention) Meanwhile, Eustace just likes to scare dogs.
I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if there was some hidden stash of money in the manor or something, would further explain Eustace being there, guy's greedy as hell.
And I think this is only the 6th Death Battle to end in a draw. Besides the other example Wiz and Boomstick mentioned, the other 4 were: Koopa Troopa vs. Goomba Eggman vs. Dr. Wiley Justin Bieber vs. Rebecca Black Deadpool vs. Pinkie Pie
I love how courage and Scooby even while basically trying to kill each other over who fights the monster are still having fun, and acting like it’s more of a friendly bout than anything. It really makes it wholesome and even though they are fighting they still love and respect each other and will let bygones be bygones no matter who wins or well after in this case.
Whoever wrote the visual jokes in this episode deserves a raise. As someone who grew up watching Courage, it was a wonderful tribute to both franchises.
@@opadrip Siri is also another one Wiss From Rwby vs a persona character I don't remember it's debatable but it seems to me like the finishing move is more of a Knockout than killing her
Courage screaming after Lt. Columbo says "Just one more thing" is such an underrated reference. When the Lieutenant asks you just one more thing, you should always be afraid.
Fun Fact, the reason he appears here is because Liam Swan, one of the writers of this episode, along with many other episodes, really wants Columbo VS Light Yagami to become an episode someday.
I got it since my parents/grandparents always watched Columbo. I always find it funny every episode he always talks to the actual killer and always tease them with that phrase, lol.
"But this is a death battle, someone has to die." "Someone did Wiz. Ahh someone did" "Anybody tell you your kind of... scary sometimes" "I don't like dog killers!" Best dialogue out of the whole episode! Awesome episode!
I've never been so satisfied with an ending of Death Battle. The premise that these two good bois, who are canon friends, would fight each other is heartbreaking. Also, holy crap, the animation of the monster was horrifying
y'know I think Im actually most pleased by the fact that A) the monster turned out to be a normal guy in a mask, and B) that that normal guy turned out to be Eustace XD
I don't think I've laughed so hard at the death battle in a long time. Having the fight start to see you would stand up to the monster chasing them was a great touch because they are canonically friends. Scooby-Doo turning into a giant that eclipses the planet straight out of Asura's Wrath made me burst out into laughter. I usually don't mention the music but the song be reminiscent of some of the island was epic And this was a very rare DB draw. They're both too good boys to die. Excellent episode. Very hyped for Rick vs the Doctor too.
Can we just talk about how INSANE the animation was in this episode?? This is seriously THE BEST one yet, the blending of animation styles, the fluidity of movement, the character's expression AND on model designs, creative and hilarious use of toon force, the SFX give a satisfying impact to every action. as a huge animation nerd this episode was a FEAST for the eyes! ❤
Silver Surfer and Martian Manhunter: We don’t know what forced us to fight each other and why only one of us gets to live. Courage and Scooby: Sounds like a skill issue.
Damn people just hate Eustace,yes he was a jerk to others but I mean look at his life mom,dad and brother constantly put him down,hell his brother nicknames him useless when they were growing up and his mom calls him stupid boy. Again his actions aren't justified but if you're just gonna say he's a jerk just to be a jerk then you only payed half attention
@@lucasdiazjr5679 Eustace isn't just a jerk. His behaviours are beyond anything that a jerk would display. He's a straight up sociopath combined with several other illnesses Taking advantage of people, greed, neglect, deliberatedly putting others in danger and himself through ignorance, abandonment of the people close to him (mainly Muriel) when in need, lack of gratefulness or any level of politeness/courtesies, openly insulting people, lack of agency for his own insults/actions despite knowing they are malicious, theft, defying authority, intoxication, collusion with foes that hurt him personally, anger issues and emotional immaturity, superiority complex. Literally the only good thing he does in Muriel's life is presumably rebuild his house himself after every disaster that destroys it. And considering how the roof and most of it is is literally made of plain wood, he cheapens out on that as well, opting to live in a card castle awaiting to crumble.
Yes! @@Scooby309we gotta be win🏆death battle! Scooby doo amazing mystery machine🚐 i like it okay not her🚫courage this stupid idiots scream what about destroyed courage lose what about now🤔🙂❤👍okay @scooby309 death battle! Scooby doo wins🏆i love it❤
If you think about it, their cowardice is the what's keeping Scooby and Courage grounded and humble because if they were truly fearless, they would ascend among Gods!
Boomstick said it perfectly in courage's breakdown "He may be small and he may be scared, but standing up to our fears is what makes us brave in the first place, that's why, his name, is courage"
Same here, while I love Courage more, I couldn't forget all the good times watching Scooby Doo before Courage premiered on TV And I was ready to cry just thinking of either Courage or Scooby dying But thank God it's Eustace instead! 😂😂😂😂😂
Knowing it was a draw and they both technically won without having to kill the other, this was wholesome. Also, Eustice getting locked away in the chest of demons with the 13 ghosts was a fitting end to the battle.
@@darryljack6612 It’s a very good show, and a great source of parody. I mean Freak Fred is like those slasher movies. Kats has been used to reference many different movies like ‘Hotel California’ and ‘The Island of Dr. Monroe’. Le Quack is in reference to Hiest movies… there’s just a lot of movie references in this show that make it a ‘Goosebumps’ brand of weird.
Honestly Courage has so many horror moments played up by disorienting animation contrast that it's hard to know what you're even referring to this being a "call back" to.
The animation team killed this one. Probably one of the best 2D-animated battles of all time. I adore how courage and Scooby feels like they're both straight out of their respective shows. The monster being 3D animated is just as good too, since it fits with how Courage villains typically have that really early CGI look to them to add to their unervingness. (Harvest Moon, King Tut, Perfect) What an amazing love letter to both series.
Love that this fight wasn't start by bad blood or say Courage eating Scooby's snacks, but to see who would face the scary monster and when it was taken care of they had nothing to fight about now. Really good one here.
@@lazaroskarmaniolas7410And the reason we are teased with an Asura's Wrath reference but not having it in an actual DB against Kratos is because even a bum like Wyzen would solo the entire GOWverse with a finger 😌
To be fair, they were both exhausted by the time the "monster" arrived, so they were in no condition to keep fighting, let alone defend themselves (they couldn't even muster enough strength to slap each other by the end).
As much as I am 100% here for matchups like Frieza vs Megatron. This Deathbattle was an absolute love letter to my childhood and I don't think it could have been animated any better.
And an ending that is canonically accurate and appropriate for both! Scooby being friends with his friend, Eustace being punished, and everything returning to “normal” so the next episode can start.
Didn't know until this video that Courage was supposed to be a beagle, and honestly that checks out. His panicked gibberish when trying to point out danger to Muriel is pretty much the cartoon equivalent of when a beagle thinks it saw or heard something and must run toward the woods and bark at it loud enough for the whole neighborhood to hear.
Seriously, how come no one else is commenting on how insanely spot-on the voiceacting for both Scooby and Courage was for the fight? It is so damn uncanny that I was honestly surprised that it wasn’t Frank Welker and Marty Grabstein (their official VAs) reprising their roles for this Death Battle.
Let's be real, that was *exactly* the sort of ending we all wanted. We didn't care who won, we just knew who we all wanted to see *suffer* from their shenanigans fallout in the end.
Jesus Christ died for your sins on the cross. Repent and believe in him or you will be separated from God The Father for all eternity and face hell forever, for all eternity, never ending.
@@cameronheaton9900 In the breakdown list it says he's a "Great Dane (Annunaki?)." Mystery Incorporated added some lore to explain why Scooby can talk and has human intelligence beyond just "it's a cartoon." So he's canonically an alien.
I gotta give credit to both of the VAs for Scooby and Courage in this episode. They did some spot some impersonations. Courage especially, for a minute I thought they actually got Marty Grabstein, so that was impressive.
@megacrashthehedgehog5377 Wait. That wasn't him? Are you sure? Nobody that I know of in history is capable of doing Courage with such accuracy without resulting to tricks using AI or just resulting to recordings which is what I was certain is the case here.
@@gamersinger5118DB has a habit of making characters sound almost exactly like their originals, Bill specifically had me thinking they got Alex Hirsch for a good while
This, and SpongeBob vs SuperFriennds Aquaman are probably my favorites. Understands the characters well, but doesn’t take it too seriously since neither would the characters take it seriously.
The fact that Edward held that Scream for 9 seconds marks this as one of the best death battles ever! Rick VS The Doctor better hit different as well..😂
I agree. Not only that, but I’m positive that it’s going to turn into a meme template sooner rather than later, whether including the scream shattering Scooby or not.
And then courage is like: **Inhale** *AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA*
I also think that the gang (especially Shaggy) can only do the same feats as Scooby but only when they are around Scooby. On their own, they're just normal humans.
I can’t believe the monster was Eustace this entire time and he would have gotten away with it if it weren’t for those meddling dogs. Also it was great to finally see mama Boomstick.
Something to keep in mind: Courage's scream in the original clip wasn't out of fear. He screamed like that because he was so heartbroken at seeing the talking tree cut down. So chances are, that's not even the strongest his yell can get. Plus, Courage is way stronger than you'd think. He can casually dig and tunnel his way through solid rock and dirt without breaking a sweat. And he can paddle a boat on land just as easily as if it were on water. Courage is a unit.
right. If it wasn't for their canonicall crossover I'm sure Courage would have won. the crossover being the only reason death battle made them equal in stats
@@raylevi5343actually, in 18:32 they stated that even without the crossover they did state in the black box that Courage can still match Scooby with other crossover, and even without those crossover and even if Scooby is stronger, both can neither have the means to kill each other due to their toon force immortality.
@@ZeWabbitofHappyTreeLand I've never seen the appeal in the Scooby gang while Courage has always occupied a special spot in my heart, so I'm quite biased.
This was one of if not the greatest death battle I’ve ever seen and just puts into perspective how ridiculously op and dedicated Courage and Scooby Doo are despite their fears. They’re one of those characters you never think about their power until they’re all shown at you. And the music is god tier.
My absolute favorite part is the sound design at 17:07. His scream is perfectly timed with the music, and the way it cuts out for the scream is so absolutely perfect.
9:35 Yeah this one on both ends I’m aware of everything listed here through outside knowage but. When has Coursge even shown Time alternation or plot manipulation? (For the record stoping the ending hole from closing and breaking and fourth wall isn’t the same thing lol)
I like how Courage knew that his Computer didn’t have any knowledge of Scooby Doo, so he instead searched “Great Dane with speech impediment”
I didn't realize that! I guess that's Courage's intellect showing
Courage was the strongest user of Google-fu, he was probably doing it before it was even a thing!
But it wouldn't have worked, because as briefly mentioned, Scooby-Doo is an alien/part alien (see Mystery Incorporated). So all Courage would get from the computer is how to beat a great dane with a speech impediment, not an alien/part alien with a speech impediment. This is also why the god bone didn't work.
@@silvershadow525 You’re still right since after getting hit with the God Bone that Computer suggested, Scooby Doo got back up and hit Courage with a planet eclipsing punch
The Computer knew exactly what he was trying to do. Hence the name calling.
Never in a million years did I ever think that I would see Scooby Doo basically pull an Asura's Wrath
and courage just screamed at it

I am VERY impressed with Courage's voice actor. Edward Bosco did such a good job, I honestly thought Death Battle was using voice clips from the show.
I almost thought they actually got Marty Grabstein until I listened closer. Bosco was fantastic.
@@drinfernodds Same, I wasn't thinking "wow that's a good impression" I was thinking "wow how'd they convince the original voice actor to do this video".
I couldn't agree more. It's really close impersonation, but now that I know I can kind of hear the difference when I think of the pilot version of Hazbin Hotel/Alastor's voice. Still, he did an amazing job. In my opinion most people can do a scooby pretty easily, but courage is a little harder to nail.
Yeah they did great with this his voice!

Not sure why but I find Courages sun-buster scream one of the most epic attacks in Death Battle.
I think this is one of the most heartwarming ending in Death Battle history! Like seriously the fact the two of them just laugh off the entire fight makes the whole thing wholesome.
Reminds me of Allmight vs Might Guy. They both died at the end, but the whole fight was chock full of camaraderie between the two.

The fact that the third time Courage opened the door and we see COLUMBO IS HILARIOUS because Columbo himself is also a detective.

There is a character called Columbone which is a dog version of Columbo.
Also an extradimensional entity according to his creator.

Conclusion: Wholesome
Definitely my favorite death battle this year so far
Honestly, I thought nothing was going to top Bill v Discord for me, but this definitely did since I loved both shows and the animation felt like it was straight from the show. DB needs to do more cartoon fights like this and Bill v Discord as they seem to be better anymore.
@@shawnaustin1037bill vs discord for me was one of the weaker 3 of the season. With freiza vs negatron and gojo vs Makima being the best for me
For me, second favorite of the season. This was amazing
I love how most Scooby doo villains at least have reasons for acting scary (Either for money or for attention) Meanwhile, Eustace just likes to scare dogs.
I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if there was some hidden stash of money in the manor or something, would further explain Eustace being there, guy's greedy as hell.

I love how courage and Scooby even while basically trying to kill each other over who fights the monster are still having fun, and acting like it’s more of a friendly bout than anything. It really makes it wholesome and even though they are fighting they still love and respect each other and will let bygones be bygones no matter who wins or well after in this case.
The genuine concern Courage has when he thinks he has accidently killed Scooby with the ray gun was touching
Me too. Like you could tell that they were trying but not bloodlusted.
That is a crazy dog battle...really crazy.

Courage screaming after Lt. Columbo says "Just one more thing" is such an underrated reference. When the Lieutenant asks you just one more thing, you should always be afraid.
When you spend years meticulously crafting an airtight scheme and alibi then Columbo hits you with the "one more thing"
It's so weird that I learned about Columbo mere days before this. I'm 34.
Fun Fact, the reason he appears here is because Liam Swan, one of the writers of this episode, along with many other episodes, really wants Columbo VS Light Yagami to become an episode someday.
@@eevv2229yo that would be such a good episode. But in my opinion, Columbo would definitely catch light.

I don't think I've laughed so hard at the death battle in a long time. Having the fight start to see you would stand up to the monster chasing them was a great touch because they are canonically friends. Scooby-Doo turning into a giant that eclipses the planet straight out of Asura's Wrath made me burst out into laughter.

Eustace is the only loser which is incredibly accurate for the show.
True. (Even though it's been ages for me since I've seen it, and I somehow miss that show {along with the dog & cat one}). 😂

It serves him right, left and centre for being such a jerk

Again his actions aren't justified but if you're just gonna say he's a jerk just to be a jerk then you only payed half attention
@@lucasdiazjr5679 Eustace isn't just a jerk. His behaviours are beyond anything that a jerk would display. He's a straight up sociopath combined with several other illnesses
Taking advantage of people, greed, neglect, deliberatedly putting others in danger and himself through ignorance, abandonment of the people close to him (mainly Muriel) when in need, lack of gratefulness or any level of politeness/courtesies, openly insulting people, lack of agency for his own insults/actions despite knowing they are malicious, theft, defying authority, intoxication, collusion with foes that hurt him personally, anger issues and emotional immaturity, superiority complex.
Literally the only good thing he does in Muriel's life is presumably rebuild his house himself after every disaster that destroys it. And considering how the roof and most of it is is literally made of plain wood, he cheapens out on that as well, opting to live in a card castle awaiting to crumble.

Courage is very brave. After all, bravery isn't a lack of fear, it's recognizing and overcoming that fear

This was like watching a second cross over from their respective shows. The absolute love to both of them and their histories can be clearly seen.
The contrast in animation being a call back to one of the most skin crawling Courage episodes was just amazing.
Are we talking ‘The Big Stinkin’ City’, or ‘Perfection’ here?
@@togekiss1995 I was actually thinking of King Ramsses. But both of those also work, and makes me admire this twisted show even more.
@@darryljack6612 It’s a very good show, and a great source of parody. I mean Freak Fred is like those slasher movies. Kats has been used to reference many different movies like ‘Hotel California’ and ‘The Island of Dr. Monroe’. Le Quack is in reference to Hiest movies… there’s just a lot of movie references in this show that make it a ‘Goosebumps’ brand of weird.
Honestly Courage has so many horror moments played up by disorienting animation contrast that it's hard to know what you're even referring to this being a "call back" to.
The animation team killed this one. Probably one of the best 2D-animated battles of all time. I adore how courage and Scooby feels like they're both straight out of their respective shows. The monster being 3D animated is just as good too, since it fits with how Courage villains typically have that really early CGI look to them to add to their unervingness. (Harvest Moon, King Tut, Perfect)
What an amazing love letter to both series.
Not to mention, the scene of Eustace getting pulled into the Chest of Demons was done so well!
It looked stop-motion to me. The Eustace monster.
19:24 Said the guy who didn’t have a problem with Smokey the Bear killing McGriff the Crime Dog.
He’s to human and not so cute for Boomstick to feel bad
As someone who grew up with both characters, this was the perfect ending. Hand drawn animation looked beautiful as well
I agree
Love that this fight wasn't start by bad blood or say Courage eating Scooby's snacks, but to see who would face the scary monster and when it was taken care of they had nothing to fight about now. Really good one here.
So if one of them did kill the other, the winner had to deal with the monster anyway.....hmm, then who really lost? XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD

This is arguably one of THE best death battles in forever.
Didn't know until this video that Courage was supposed to be a beagle, and honestly that checks out. His panicked gibberish when trying to point out danger to Muriel is pretty much the cartoon equivalent of when a beagle thinks it saw or heard something and must run toward the woods and bark at it loud enough for the whole neighborhood to hear.
Me either mate, but it makes so much sense in hindsight.
It's one of the rare cases in fiction where he may not look like a specific breed, but he has the personality of one. Usually it's the opposite.
I didn't know he was a beagle ether and my reaction to hearing that is "that explains it"
A Beagle?

I also think that the gang (especially Shaggy) can only do the same feats as Scooby but only when they are around Scooby. On their own, they're just normal humans.
I can’t believe the monster was Eustace this entire time and he would have gotten away with it if it weren’t for those meddling dogs. Also it was great to finally see mama Boomstick.
We saw her in Kool-Aid Man VS Randy Savage.
More like YUK!!!!
Something to keep in mind: Courage's scream in the original clip wasn't out of fear. He screamed like that because he was so heartbroken at seeing the talking tree cut down. So chances are, that's not even the strongest his yell can get. Plus, Courage is way stronger than you'd think. He can casually dig and tunnel his way through solid rock and dirt without breaking a sweat. And he can paddle a boat on land just as easily as if it were on water. Courage is a unit.
right. If it wasn't for their canonicall crossover I'm sure Courage would have won. the crossover being the only reason death battle made them equal in stats
If it weren't for crossovers, Scooby's dance would be too powerful for him...and he would be faster too.
@@raylevi5343actually, in 18:32 they stated that even without the crossover they did state in the black box that Courage can still match Scooby with other crossover, and even without those crossover and even if Scooby is stronger, both can neither have the means to kill each other due to their toon force immortality.
