loneliness + alienation + fear + despair + self-worth ÷ mockery ÷ condemnation ÷ misunderstanding x guilt x shame x failure x judgment n=y where y=hope and n=folly, love=lies, life=death, self=dark side
So whats the answer? Or do you have say all that each time to control anyone who hears its, what if they are deaf? Feels just like the obedience disc from marvels, makes no sense how Thor a god who can control lightning thru his body can be knocked out by a disc.
Just look at the differences between thanos and darkseid. Thanos wanted to kill half of everyone so that resources don’t die and life goes on. But darkseid just wants to control everyone
One of my favorite moments in the JL Animated Series is when Superman pummels and beats Darkseid with his own Omega beam, tosses his body to the people of Apokolips and tells them you're free everyone and that Darkseid wouldn't hurt them any longer. But instead, without a word from Darkseid, everyone looked at Darkseid and walked over to pick him up and carry him away. Superman, looking utterly stunned and confused caught Darkseid's attention, so he stops everyone to tell Superman "I said Kal that I am many things. But here...'I'. Am God." And i'm just like this man...even in defeat...will haunt you. He can't even be beat and leave you feeling like "yeah! big baddy down!" It was just like wow...this guy just...what do you even do about him?!
The best use of Anti-Life Equation was in Final Crisis, which held up all the concepts from Jack Kirby's Forth World series. Please read both of them to understand these things in more detailed way.
Anti life equation Loneliness + Alienation + fear + despair + self- Worth ÷ Mockery ÷ Condemnation ÷ misunderstanding × guilt × shame × failure × judgement n=y where y = hope and n= folly, love =lies, life= death, self= dark Side
True but the main codex is stuck in raven... trigon would make a entry remember what joker said.... in the end batman will have to die. Even if superman turns heel it's no point for justice league cuz clark will move to another dimension but after flash point all time and storylines changed the universe
@3:50 I remember that comic to be part of Death of the new gods. The revelation of the nature of the anti life equation and the new gods' ability to utilize and merge their souls to gain immense power. The same concept behind Infinity man and the forever people. This concept granted darkseid the ability to match the source itself in terms of power. The repercussions of that event was then concluded on countdown to final crisis.
Wait hold on so If the anti-life equation makes anyone who knows it lose their free will and reason to live, shouldn’t Darkseid knowing it make him incapable of using it? Shouldn’t it make him such an overt nihilist that he’d believe there’s no point to taking control?
yeah its the dumbest idea in comics. Essentially the equation would only really have power over people if they really believe that life is meant to have meaning so it cant work on all life anyways. Darkseid is the greatest ConMan in comics he conned an entire univer and technically multi verse into thinking mind control works cause you explain an equation for why life has no meaning even though if life is meaningless it doesn't effect peoples day to day lives really at all so its useless. Like They will never be able to explain it in a way that makes sense cause it doesn't and cant make sense.
I think anti life equation is a state where a character understands that he is not real and merely just a fictional character created for entertainment purpose, he has no free will, thus his life is meaningless
The fact that ZSJL did the whole "the villian wins and the world basically gets destroyed. We need to go back in time" technically before IW and EG makes me side-eye Joss a little bit more.
Marvel Studio has been planning their movies years ahead. They already have plot points and map for them. It's just coincidental that DC did it too. (It's not a unique concept to let the villain win and undo that win with time shenanigan) Plus, Joss Whedon is already fired from Marvel when he started working on JL reshoot. So, keep your silly theory to yourself.
@@johnelmartagbago3764 you're absolutely right. Luckily the two time travels were different enough that it doesn't feel like a copy at all. Plus the flash running back in time was one of the best superhero scenes ever in my opinion
@@snydersteppenwolf1247 *And Marvel Studios has been mapping their stories since 2012 (when they finally have decided that Thanos will be the main bad) .* Try again, DC Stan.
TL:DR (someone correct me if this is wrong) Anti Life Equation: loneliness + alienation + fear + despair + self-worth ÷ mockery ÷ condemnation ÷ misunderstanding x guilt x shame x failure x judgment, n=y where y=hope, n=folly, love=lies, life=death, self=dark side Life Equation: companionship + understanding + assurance + joy + altruism ÷ respect ÷ commendation ÷ sympathy x innocence x dignity x success x acceptance y=n where y=despair and n=caution, love=truth, death=rebirth, and self=light side
The anti life equation is probably just a comically long ass math equation that when anyone just tries to read it they'll lose hope because they can't reach the end of it.
So after Crisis on Infinite Earths in the Arrowverse we got a mention of Anti-Life in Supergirl by Braniac 5(well another universe's Brainiac 5). If we follow Multiverse rules, that makes it 4 attempts to conquer Earth in live action (Smallville season 10, Uxas invasion, Knightmare and Arrowverse, hell one could argue they're all the same Darkseid). Fun note, we've gotten another use of Anti-life in this week's episode of Supergirl
Okay, serious question: In the movie, Darkseid slams his axe on the ground and the equation just appears. How? Was it always there? Why did it appear when he slammed the ground?
Great video! But at 2:40 you said telekinetic abilities, but telekinesis is moving things with your mind. I think you mean telepathic abilities, which is reading people’s thoughts.
So how did Darkseid forget the equation was on earth? He knew it in the flashback, then said he searched thousands of worlds trying to find it again???
@@AbsolutelyMenti he was probably invading whatever world he could find. once he got banished and the motherboxes left on earth there was no way he could return to that specific universe. its not like he has coordinates he just had the boxes.
That war took place over 5000 years ago, and in that war, Darkseid (who actually is still Uxas at that time) was so badly damaged that he lost conciousness and had to retreat, so it make sense he forgot a lot of things about the war. Not to mention that after Uxas bathe in the Omega sanctions, he's essentially reborn as Darkseid, so it could also be he lost a lot his memory as Uxas after his rebirth
How does it work?uttering eqns? DARKSEID : I m your LORD! U all, from now shall follow my Orders... PUBLIC : Ignore,(thinking some cos player high on weed). DARKSEID : "SinX - x^2 - lnx..." PUBLIC : Yes, my LORD..... does it work this way, WTF...?
I feel you, this whole Anti-Life Equation makes no sense... it's an equation, that when uttered makes you mindless, unless you are the one controlling other people... how do you become the one controller other people? Here read this:... Gotcha! You just lost the game! Then there's people who get power from parts of the 'anti-life equation'... so does it imbue power or does it make you mindless? How does it imbue power? How can some characters try to use it to resurrect, or other things? Some descriptions it's an equation that is more philosophical and make you lose your mind, but some descriptions make it like it's a power granting thing you can possess part of like one of the infinity stones... it just makes no sense. And in Snyder's cut, it's just drawn on the ground? wth? This is why I never read DC.
Oh hell yeah, hopefully in Martian Manhunters film it's discussed that Darkseid was responsible for his planet and familys demise forcing him to go to earth.
I learned about the Anti-Life Equation from Justice League: Unlimited's last episode when Luthor showed Darkseid said Equation. That was years before Snyder Cut, and I'm glad Darkseid and the Anti-Life Equation are getting known.
I mean, it doesnt really make any sense. If life equation exist, then how tf can anti life equation exist? X and negated X cant be both true at the same time, unless math works differently in DC universe
@Black Panther Don't get me wrong. The actor is brilliant in Kingdom of Heaven and Harry Potter. He just doesn't look the part the way a lot of us have imagined the deity. He was even worse in the WW movie.
Exactly how I felt when I watched it and they just kept talking about the anti-life equation... I was looking for a 42 easter egg somewhere... maybe Darkseid is really DeepThought.
The one thing that I like about Darkseid is that he is pure evil unlike villains of recent movies who want to save the world in Thier own demonic way or thought process Darkseid is just pure Villain he wants to enslave or destroy
Pure evil motivation is tricky to pull off in live action movie. It would be much better if Darkseid character in DCEU has a solid motivation about why he wants to conquer planets and finding the equation. Otherwise he would end up like Steppenwolf in Josstice League.
Dang, I really thought for the longest time, that the anti-life equation was something less basic. It isn't even math, just sentence structure replaced with math operators.
Minute 59 09 0f the sniders cut shows darkseid hitting the ground and the antilife equation written in the ground by lava .. Means he already knows it.. Why does he forget the planet where he lost the battle or the antilife equation by the end of the movie?
I seem to recall it being said in one of these YouToob videos that Wonder Woamn's lariat as a loop displayed the word FREEDOM... so I want to read the comic run in which this battle is fought. What comic and series is it in please?
Im pretty sure it draws down to ID and Superego. Self = Dark side. Some people can't live with the fact they share something in common with Darkseid. Life equation is peoples superego overcoming their personal desires for greater good. Depending on the equation it can shift your mindset to one of these states
It would of been awesome if the anti life equation was wat the Kryptonians were using and what jor l put inside Clark in MoS. Which is why superman's death cry opened the mother boxes
“Harvest the equation: ⬆️ If SteppenWolf and *we* are looking at the equation then. A) Why doesn’t he send it to DarkSeid immediately. It’s an *equation* like E-MC squared - it’s not a physical item like a mother box. It’s info...just send it. B) SteppenWolf knows this is the *thing* but it doesn’t help him in any way. Why can’t he use this knowledge to help him defeat the JL. If he can’t....then how useful is it really? C) This story is supposed to be *cosmic* - but all 3 motheboxes and the anti-life equation are on Earth?? D) Darkseid supposedly conquered bazillions of words....but he was nearly killed and got his @zz beat centuries ago and he just stood there and did nothing this time. Film is a bloated incoherent mess.
1.a bit of a correction E=MC squared as in Energy = Mass X the Speed of light Squared. (the Equation means for one to Convert Energy to Matter and Vice Versa.) 2. Steppenwolf may not be able to read it nor copy every part of the Equation, he can just see the numbers in the equation. (going by Math, logically Darkseid would need every part of the Equation to solve it you can't just solve Math without a complete Equation e.g Calculation of Forces, Conversions and even Blood Counting.) 3. They were accidentally left here, and in real life it was budget and story constraints. 4. Its stated in the Lore that this is before he acquire the Omega Force (whatever that is) its a shame that they did not explain Space H*t!ers backstory. (he had 3 Sons, His Uncle is Steppenwolf and he had 2 Wives and a Mom all of whom have drama about them that played out like a Space version of GOT.)
With the current levels of human stupidity , the only chance Darkseid has to make people read an equation is if he wrapped it in a shitty reality show about pageant bachelor hoarders

Thank you for this video!!!! After I watched, my very first question was "what is this equation?"
Ares actor is still one of the worst casting choices in recent memory. He does in no way look like Ares the God of War.
Has a cool mustache tho
@Black Panther Don't get me wrong. The actor is brilliant in Kingdom of Heaven and Harry Potter. He just doesn't look the part the way a lot of us have imagined the deity. He was even worse in the WW movie.
The Answer is always 42.
Exactly how I felt when I watched it and they just kept talking about the anti-life equation... I was looking for a 42 easter egg somewhere... maybe Darkseid is really DeepThought.
The one thing that I like about Darkseid is that he is pure evil unlike villains of recent movies who want to save the world in Thier own demonic way or thought process Darkseid is just pure Villain he wants to enslave or destroy
Pure evil motivation is tricky to pull off in live action movie. It would be much better if Darkseid character in DCEU has a solid motivation about why he wants to conquer planets and finding the equation. Otherwise he would end up like Steppenwolf in Josstice League.
Dang, I really thought for the longest time, that the anti-life equation was something less basic. It isn't even math, just sentence structure replaced with math operators.
Equation always have LHS and RHS. Life is never taken away it is only brought over to the other side.
I always thought it was hilarious how in Justice League that shit doesn't at all resemble numbers
I have to ask how are you able to read comics in such order? And where do you read comics?
Minute 59 09 0f the sniders cut shows darkseid hitting the ground and the antilife equation written in the ground by lava .. Means he already knows it.. Why does he forget the planet where he lost the battle or the antilife equation by the end of the movie?
Yeah... we both laughed about that. Like the dude got chopped by an axe, almost does, then forgets the name of the planet it happens on.
i have just watched supergirl se6 ep1 and there they where talking bout the life equation maybe an crossover soon?
I seem to recall it being said in one of these YouToob videos that Wonder Woamn's lariat as a loop displayed the word FREEDOM... so I want to read the comic run in which this battle is fought. What comic and series is it in please?
I always knew maths is biggest threat to humanity
i am choosing to believe when i get depressed its because i remembered the anti-life equation
This is the formula calls for kratos, look I t’s greek war sign
That's the Omega symbol. Omega means "the end", and Darkseid is the bringer of ends. So it makes sense that Omega is Darkseid's symbol
Im pretty sure it draws down to ID and Superego. Self = Dark side. Some people can't live with the fact they share something in common with Darkseid. Life equation is peoples superego overcoming their personal desires for greater good. Depending on the equation it can shift your mindset to one of these states
Hey! Garrick when will you update your master TL of mcu/dceu ?
And what about podcast I miss them a lot
It would of been awesome if the anti life equation was wat the Kryptonians were using and what jor l put inside Clark in MoS. Which is why superman's death cry opened the mother boxes
So essentially the anti-life equation is just the mathematical answer
to why you will never get any bitches, bro matpat already discovered it.
So, nihilism is the ultimate weapon? I always knew philosophy would come in handy someday!
Most powerful weapon is a math equation?!
Young Justice S3 would be proud
3x+1 in the GAME OF LIFE. This is my seed.
Oh Galadriel how could you..........
Good explanation 👍
Anti Life Equation came up in one the recent episodes of Supergirl
Name of song playing at 3:00 min plz... ❤️
Jimmi’s- For You
Heartbreaking that we won’t get a sequel.
There are rumors that there will be one but it won’t be canon
@Abhikrishna PS snyder did.
I kept thinking he was gonna say billion dollar baby
New DCEU feat calcs later?
“Harvest the equation:
⬆️ If SteppenWolf and *we* are looking at the equation then.
A) Why doesn’t he send it to DarkSeid immediately. It’s an *equation* like E-MC squared - it’s not a physical item like a mother box. It’s info...just send it.
B) SteppenWolf knows this is the *thing* but it doesn’t help him in any way. Why can’t he use this knowledge to help him defeat the JL. If he can’t....then how useful is it really?
C) This story is supposed to be *cosmic* - but all 3 motheboxes and the anti-life equation are on Earth??
D) Darkseid supposedly conquered bazillions of words....but he was nearly killed and got his @zz beat centuries ago and he just stood there and did nothing this time.
Film is a bloated incoherent mess.
1.a bit of a correction E=MC squared as in Energy = Mass X the Speed of light Squared. (the Equation means for one to Convert Energy to Matter and Vice Versa.)
2. Steppenwolf may not be able to read it nor copy every part of the Equation, he can just see the numbers in the equation. (going by Math, logically Darkseid would need every part of the Equation to solve it you can't just solve Math without a complete Equation e.g Calculation of Forces, Conversions and even Blood Counting.)
3. They were accidentally left here, and in real life it was budget and story constraints.
4. Its stated in the Lore that this is before he acquire the Omega Force (whatever that is) its a shame that they did not explain Space H*t!ers backstory. (he had 3 Sons, His Uncle is Steppenwolf and he had 2 Wives and a Mom all of whom have drama about them that played out like a Space version of GOT.)
So just a suggestion, when you recommend a video please leave a link in the description to gain access to it easily
It’s in the credits to this video :)
@@KeyIssues I didn’t see, thank you!
With the current levels of human stupidity , the only chance Darkseid has to make people read an equation is if he wrapped it in a shitty reality show about pageant bachelor hoarders
Too accurate
The most destructive mathematical symbol is pie. Can’t have too much of it!
Isn't anti kife just...
Idk. Somewhat like the soul stone with the reality stone?
I wish i had too much time on my hands. But I’m still a comic buff. So i know exactly what it is. Still, i love hearing about it.
That's... nice.
Didn’t even notice steppanwolf mentioned the multiverse
Shouldn't u be working for DC..or Darkseid...??
I just wanna know how steppenwolf fucked up SO BAD to owe darkseid 50,000 fucking planets 🤣
Watch the deceased comic book series it also show cases the effects of the anti-life equation. You can find it on comicstorian's UA-cam channel.
Darkseid should honestly be steppen wolf's uncle because of how scared he is of him
I wish Darkseid sat beside me during all of my maths exams.
Steppenwolf is Darkseids uncle.
kyle rayner had the life equation and his use of it kinda turned out like the anti life
