good commentary. Also like to add for the line, "I'll crush you." There was an old flash animation had a bit of a revival called Super Mario Bros z. Where Metal Sonic was the main villain and the line. "I'll crush you." Was basically his go to phrase. The series also inspired the stage for the first 1 minute melee between Bowser and Eggman.
@@emergent131 Ahh ok. I keep hearing that it was a reference to the SMBZ no one mentioned sonic heroes. I know the 1 minute melee between Bowser and Eggman was inspired by the series. So I thought it was just another nod.
It’s probably both. A reference to Sonic Heroes since it was Neo Metal Sonic who said it. A reference to Smbz because NMS was in a super from, similar to Mecha Sonic was in episode 6
Id also like to add, the reason all the kings got crushed but the smaller minions didn't isn't because they're more durable, but because bowser was literally using his magic to protect them, hence the bubbles surrounding them.
If you pause just before Bowser goes into his shell at 0:21 His face becomes the face of the bowser from hotel Mario where he laughs at Mario and Luigi from afar
0:13 I always interpreted this scene differently. Keep in mind that it's a dummy mech that's attacking Bowser, which immediately starts retreating after showing up. I think Eggman was trying to lure Bowser away from his troop to give his own troops a better chance at actually taking a portion of Bowser's army. This would explain Eggman's _"All according to plan!"_ line
On the topic of 8-bit ( 4:27 ), during the kill scene, 8-bit coins rain down on Bowser and his army (with the respective coin collection and 1-up collection sounds from the original Super Mario Bros). Edit: you can pause here: 4:09 and see for yourself.
Honestly Bowser Jr. was as much of a carry as Metal Sonic, reviving and powering up Bowser with black paint, and I assume he was the one who revived Bowser into Dry Bowser as well
Characterization of bowser is also peak when it comes to how he reacts to certain things For example, when the gravity is crushing the koopa troopa, you see Bowser, instead of try to attack infinite, holds several minions in place to protect them. And as you've shown, protecting his troops from the mega death lazer And my personal favorite, the "dad powerup". Went all out the moment Jr. Was on the floor
1:45 The Quote "So long" is a usual reference in the Mario community becuse in Mario 64 in version 1.0 The original release the line Mario Says is "So long G@y Bowser" when he launches Bowser to a bomb as soon as Internet became a thing its a usual meme... in fact it was so funny even back then... so Nintendo updated the game with ''Super Mario 64 Shindou Version" it was a more polished and optimized version of Mario 64 And they removed the voiceline ''So long g[a)y Bowser'' replacing it for '"Bye-Bye" this was because two reasons Bowser is called King Koopa in japan and they realized that the quote King sounded more like G@y wich was kind of... not apropiate for an E Rated game
I dont know why everybody keeps commenting on how rggman doesnt step in for his army, yall DO realize he is just a regular human and that bowser is a super power dinosaur right? What else is he supposed to do?
You know Death Battle made a good episode if you disagree with the outcome, but still think the analysis and animation were phenomenal. Dr. Eggman is objectively the superior of the two villains in my opinion, but who cares? This was eye candy. 🤩 Also, another fun detail I like? When Bowser’s army is looking up at the Death Egg laser firing at them… You can see a Koopa Troopa in the crowd just accepting his fate and praying! Like, everyone else is either in shock or running for their lives. But that guy just started making peace with death.
Actually they were not praying for their lives or in shock, they wholeheartedly trusted their king/leader to save them, and he did, sacrificing his own life in the process (then getting revived by his army once again, this was done by them and not on his own)
Somehow no one noticed this in the part where eggman introduces himself and brings his army there is a teeth fighter hiding behind some of the other ships.
The animation is so good I've seen people who disagree with the verdict still enjoy it. It's at least a refreshing change of pace from how people reacted to the last 2 episodes.
1:50 No they're both a pun on a Super Mario 64 line when Mario attacks Bowser, trowing him by his tail: "So long-a, King Bowser!" which itself became a meme because that Italian "-a" makes it sound like he says "So long, gay Bowser."
It’s super smash winning hit (i dunno what it’s name actually is), since Super Smash does more knockback the more you get hurt, so it would be both a ssbu reference and a way to give the epic ending
This battle was such bunk. Mario Party mechanic. Random giant star man. A fucking black hole! The Death Egg getting turned into a question block. I mean, come on. I know their magic. They're not gods. It did make for a good show.
One change I'll make to make Eggman's army a tad more varied would be to have Silver Sonic stole the ruby's first and get hit with Kamek's magic (either in the form of chance time or getting turned into a frog of some sorts) then Mecha Sonic would pick up the slack and both one shot Bowser, as well as sacrifice himself when Fury Bowser attacks, and THEN have Metal appear as Super Neo
@@UltraInstinctz first off super tails is one of the weakest of the super forms since bro has no fighting experience without his use of weapons or his mechs and game super knuckles has no great feats unlike super sonic don’t get me wrong knuckles is strong although Archie knuckles had done more I still think super neo is better
@@st2k27I watched the other "death battles" that involved the Sonic universe and man... They just force their favorite characters to win. Despite the dedication to making the video
Thank God they didn't use Metal overlord, nerfed infinite and sage, buffed Jr to tank super neo metal sonic and use a LUCK SYSTEM MADE FOR FUN into a DEATH BATTLE.
@@oSunythank god they didn’t use jr grand star amped mech, didn’t show king boo one tapping infinite and sage and buffed them to even survive more than 1 second, nerfed jr to not conceptually erase all of eggman army and made eggman team use his base which he didn’t use since the early 2000s so that sonic fans wouldn’t even whine harder than they are already doing now
These death battle guys really push the Nintendo characters to win. They nerfed Eggman's team a lot. But despite that, the battle and animation was epic, Bowser honestly earned my respect.
@@mynameisntimportant1374Metal scales to Sonic who has immeasurable speed and had beaten Solaris, a casual universe buster. Bowser’s best feat is surviving a black hole, him and his entire army would get one shot before they could realize they were even in a fight.
@@yawbyss981 damn even Classic bowser had immeasurable speed by feats not scaling Sonic didn’t defeat Solaris and universal is not touching anyone in Mario and that black hole was about to destroy the universe Eggman’s army gets one shotted before they even had the idea of fighting
@@yawbyss981 Metal does not scale to SUPER Sonic lmao. And Solaris is not a “casual universe buster”, he’s a causal omnipotent being that existed as an essential fixed point in time….to the point where the three Super Hedgehogs couldn’t even beat him entirely. There’s no way in hell Metal Sonic even comes close to that level, let alone on the level of the Super Hedgehogs, even with wanked scaling.
i completly loved this fight until bowser revived out of nowhere as if he can do that casually ..okay i completly forgot about dry bowser, i didn't watch the analysis and that's completly on me
As someone who thinks Eggman should have won… Why does that bit upset you? Saying “no” to death so long as there are bones remaining is kind of Bowser’s whole thing.
I just adore the Elite Trio running the fade with Orbot & Cubot
I can only assume they bodied those frauds

Happy to see someone else notice the Goomba and Buzz Bomber got to the Phantom Ruby first but couldn’t actually grab it 😂
I just love how cute bowser jr sounds, almost makes me forget that he can chop me up into little pieces

he was using the wand... sure
He didn’t even need to revive Bowser; the dude could do it himself with hardly any issues.
Correction: Infinite didnt die, as said by the creators. Weirdly enough bowser also gets one shotted by a normal thwomp.
4:17 I love that in a split second you see their face of realization that they can't pick up the phantom ruby
neo metal walking out was the coldest scene I've seen for a ong time, i got chills watching that and i can't get enough of it

as soon as Internet became a thing
its a usual meme...
in fact it was so funny even back then... so Nintendo updated the game with ''Super Mario 64 Shindou Version" it was a more polished and optimized version of Mario 64
And they removed the voiceline ''So long g[a)y Bowser'' replacing it for '"Bye-Bye"
this was because two reasons Bowser is called King Koopa in japan and they realized that the quote King sounded more like G@y wich was kind of... not apropiate for an E Rated game
The original line was "So long king-a Bowser!"
I dont know why everybody keeps commenting on how rggman doesnt step in for his army, yall DO realize he is just a regular human and that bowser is a super power dinosaur right? What else is he supposed to do?
Yeah bro wtf. Bowser = "physical attack" and Eggman = "Intelligence"
He has multiple mechas and forms
@justsomeguy3581 mechs that he can't afford getting destroyed.
It’s crazy how Metal wasn’t the headliner and still stole every scene with pure badassery
Absolute cinema.

“ It’s too late ! “ and “ I’LL CRUSH YOU / I’LL SKEWER YOU “ go hard for metal sonic .
The best fight in history
3:02 at the climax of the music as well that shit was fire
If he had just used the Egg-Glock, he would’ve won.

JJK Brainrot 😭
This battle was such bunk.
Mario Party mechanic. Random giant star man.
A fucking black hole!
The Death Egg getting turned into a question block.
I mean, come on. I know their magic. They're not gods.
It did make for a good show.
The star was a Grand Star, which has the ability to create black holes as seen in Mario Galaxy
Never thought I'd see Bowser hit a black flash
Bowser also protected orbot and cubot from eggmans piss.
Stand proud Jr., you are strong.
Also HOW has nobody seen the starwars reference when eggman started pulling up all his shit?
One change I'll make to make Eggman's army a tad more varied would be to have Silver Sonic stole the ruby's first and get hit with Kamek's magic (either in the form of chance time or getting turned into a frog of some sorts) then Mecha Sonic would pick up the slack and both one shot Bowser, as well as sacrifice himself when Fury Bowser attacks, and THEN have Metal appear as Super Neo
anyone noticed if metal sonic went into his "Metal overlord" form bowser would be dead? I wonder why he didnt win
I’d argue that super neo metal sonic is superior than metal overload
@@st2k27 id argue back because it took Super sonic,Super Tails and Super Knuckles to defeat him

it’s funny, both bowser and Mario outclass Sonic and eggman, see where I’m going here?
Sonic versus Mario ahh battles.
I’m a fan of both franchises so I don’t really care who won the death battle, especially when you consider the fact that canonically they are friends
bowser the goat man, expected nothin less from him in that fight.
Nice video bro
You know Moro nighters was the animator for this. His has a UA-cam channel aswell.
Holy shit MY beautiful cat mentioned 🤯⁉️⁉️
Thank God, they didn’t use dreamy bowser because this would’ve been a stomp
And don't even mention him being boosted with double cherrys😭
Well Dreamy Bowser was used in an Alternate Scenario when he punched the Time Eater out of existence.

I really wished Sage called out the boss mechs (Big Arms, Egg Emperor, Egg Breaker) to jump Bowser or Fury Bowser.
Would have all got one shotted
