Two more guesses for Dead by Daylight's tenth anniversary chapter

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, a couple hours today they're going to finally reveal the next chapter. I previously went heavily into details if it ended up being Pennywise. I decided to start looking around to see what else might be in the running? It led me to two franchises, Chainsaw Man and The Last of Us. I still haven't played any games in The Last of Us franchise.

Considering it's been rubbing me the wrong way for a few years now. I don't want to give them a try either. I had to look up what I could find regarding that franchise. I do know Chainsaw Man to a much greater degree. I kept writing about it on and off. I will try my best to explain how I lined up a lot of the clues.

Before I do no I'm not throwing away Pennywise. I still think there's a huge chance we possibly getting him. I still had to consider what else possibly coming as well. Which led to me writing this funny enough you're welcome!!! I'm officially going in with three guesses. All of them having a huge chance being the next anniversary chapter respectively.

Both of them surprisingly did line up with the Shark word clue. There's a shark fiend named Beam in Chainsaw Man. There's a section in The Last of Us with a shark. Circus word clue I didn't seem to find anything concrete enough for The Last of Us. The closest thing I found for Chainsaw Man was the author recommending The Amazing Digital Circus show.

The 13 clue led to a particular location in The Last of Us Part II. I don't know if they would use Volume 13 as a reference. Which is early on Part 2 of the story. The last word clue being, "The darkness feeding on the heartless". In The Last of Us, a lot of people gets eaten then becomes the infected. In Chainsaw Man, this could be directly playing on Denji.

Early in the story, Denji gets killed then thrown into a dumpster. Pochita ended up making an contract to replace his heart reviving him thus giving Denji his powers. Now throw in a few people that attempted to break the contract by making Denji really upset. Denji isn't like a lot of characters in the genre. For example, the horrible burning of an apartment with a lot of pets.

Denji was surprisingly glad about it I'm dead serious. This also ties into his final moment with Pochita in the story that led to his sacrifice. He directly devoured his own heart to erase himself from existence. Obviously Denji has a huge connection with that phrase. I am not entirely sure what this could be referencing in The Last of Us.

Other than Ellie upset with her girlfriend over joined a group of people she's against. Of course that wouldn't properly include feeding aspect of the clue unlike Denji. In a way could also played on Pochita having the power to erase devils from existence by devouring them. I also gotta mention the name with a crown above word clue.

To my surprise, The Last of Us had something for this. There's a composite infected called the Rat King. Which also tie in to the nearby manholes in the short clip. In Chainsaw, The Great King of Terror was the Death Devil. It didn't stop Elizabeth Swan becoming the pirate king in Pirates of the Caribbean series. As for the ancient entity clue, the closest thing in The Last of Us is the fungus itself.

In Chainsaw Man, a few devils in the story lived such long lifes especially Primal Fear devils who can't die!!! This was an easy one for the franchise. Makima is one of a few possible choices to go for. She was the main antagonist of Chainsaw Man Part 1 after all. Personally I would've went for Falling Devil. Who easily could've flipped the entire Dead by Daylight literately upside down.

To be honest, Makima might possibly come off being scarier than her. She has such a long list of abilities that could make her truly broken in Dead by Daylight. It's already a huge year for Chainsaw Man. If it turns out to be Chainsaw Man Chapter it'll be even bigger!!! Obviously two of my three top guesses I'm incredibly hyped for.

I'm assuming Joel and Ellie being the survivors if it's The Last of Us Chapter. A younger Stephen King or Riche from It story for It Chapter. Denji and Asa for Chainsaw Man Chapter. I actually felt they could do a lot with Chainsaw Man with the cosmetics. I'm still hoping for more than one killer. I honestly don't have one for The Last of Us Chapter.

I'm stuck with the Rat King a rather sticky situation. But there's a lot of notable villain characters in Chainsaw Man. There's a huge chance they could go for Reze whose the Bomb Devil. They also could go for Yoru aka War Devil whose the main antagonist of Chainsaw Man Part 2.

They also could go for Katana Man, Fake Chainsaw Man as well as Flamethrower Fiend. Two characters Denji really doesn't like. Fake Chainsaw Man held a grudge against him. It's hard to say if they'll bring in any Primal Fear devils. Although just one would've been nice.

Assuming Stephen King or Warner Brothers even in their desperate situation said No. My next best guess that's lining up with a lot of these clues is Chainsaw Man. I really think they could bring a lot of that into the game. Considering The Dredge was created from a small group's composite fear that ended up becoming an actual being.

This would further connect Chainsaw Man since every devil was created from composite fear on a more conceptual level. I already see many possible angles connecting Chainsaw Man to Dead by Daylight. Now anyone reading this knows my final three guesses before the reveal tonight.

Ideas for possible Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight DLCs

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, tomorrow is the day the world gets to play Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight. The concept is possibly representing everything Batman as possible. They want to keep it only Batman since the original Lego Batman game.

I figured to go over a few possible DLC ideas they could do. I will be excluding what they already done. Batman being such a huge franchise they got plenty to work with. Batman been around since 1939 you would be surprise what could be coming to the game. I'll also try to avoid saying any spoilers I know of the game.

Batman & Mr. Freeze: Sub-Zero movie DLC

They previously done a DLC for Lego DC Super-Villains based on Batman: Mask of the Phantasm movie. They went out of their way to directly parody Schwarzenegger's portrayal of Mr. Freeze. I think if they stick with that going into this DLC. I do think a lot of people could enjoy it.

Some consider it the good Mr. Freeze movie of the 90s. This also would be a great way to make fans of the classic 90s Batman cartoon show happy. Personally this is too good of an idea to not do. They easily could spice it up as well as add in jokes. This also fully brings in Mr. Freeze's wife for a decent story.

They have some of the essentials prior. This would fully bring Mr. Freeze full circle in the game. They even could change his appearance to that of Batman: The Animated Series. Now I know a lot of people would love that!!! I really think they could do so much with the concept.

Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker movie DLC

I'm not going to sugar coat it everyone knows the games based on that Batman Beyond movie sucked. This would be a great opportunity to do the concept again. This time make it something people wanna remember. This also could play into after the campaign. It would be nice if Mark Hamill came back to reprise the role for this.

Even if he doesn't, I do like the guy voicing the character in the game. Personally having Hamill back for this would be enough reason to play this DLC alone. I don't think they would adapt The Killing Joke either. Especially how disappointing that Batman movie was which had Hamill.

They would have a difficult time making it into something a lot of people could enjoy. I strongly felt they could do so much more with adapting this Batman Beyond movie. This also would add in some nice skins for the characters. For me, this would be very nice they go for it.

Gotham show DLC

I know Gotham being an origin story for Bruce going to cause confusion with the story. Although a lot of characters also appeared on the show. This easily could more directly focus on Commissioner Gordon. The show also often shifts focus with the villains. They easily could do an all villains story arc with this.

Both angles I felt they could do a lot with. For Gordon, he was one of the essential hero characters on the show. He had to dealt with some crazy situations. They even could blend this in with aspects of Dark Knight Rises' story. Considering it's final arc and that Batman movie were based on the same comic book arc.

Both also had an Ghul as the main antagonist with Bane being their right hand man. I do think they could do a lot more with the villains. Late into Gotham show, some of them taken territories. They easily could do a story arc with that. We also could see Penguin become the boss following the campaign.

The Batman movie also played into that with the character. This also would help some of the villains shine more in the game. I know they already doing Joker and Harley in a DLC. As a huge Batman fan, they easily could do more with some of these villains. This DLC could be that golden opportunity for greatness!!!

This also could add a lot of cool skins in the game. Also changing the look of several characters to better fit that show would be such a nice detail. Yes I'm aware for characters like Scarecrow and Poison Ivy that could be an issue. I don't think that's going to stop people from wanting to play this DLC either.

They also could have Bruce get drugged. They could play on him seeing characters more like that show. Which actually could tie into a few episodes of the show. Gotham show could bring a lot of potential to this Batman game. I just hope the actual length of the DLC is decent enough to make people happy.

Batman film serial series DLC

We're going back to the 1940s with this next DLC idea. They already heavily played off Batman 1966 show over the years. Considering they want to represent as much Batman as possible. I felt they need to adapt either Batman film serial series into the game. Funny enough the sequel called Batman and Robin.

They don't use many villain characters from the comics in either of these series. In this rare case they really could do so much with that. They easily could spice it up to make these adaptations of those entertaining for people. Also please include the option to swap between black and white as well as a colorized version.

It would be awesome being able to play this with both color filters. I know some might felt this might be too old to add in. When I easily could argue look what they already got? Now adding this in could truly do wonders. A few more cool nostalgic skins for a few characters.

I just don't want a secret cutscene representing them in the game. To me, that would be disappointing. No I would like to experience those film serial series through this Lego Batman game. A rather refreshing retelling of those. Even if they adapt one of those film serial series that's fine.

I would prefer if they could adapt both of them into the game. This would be the perfect opportunity to introduce a lot of people to such forgotten Batman classics. Just don't go in expecting what Sealab 2021 was to Sealab 2020. By having the earliest Batman film series adapted into this Batman game. We're really opening the doors for so many things.

More Batman 1966 DLC

There's still more stuff from Batman 1966 they could pull from. Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders and it's sequel Batman vs. Two-Face movies. For some reason, people still wants more Batman 1966 in some form. There's even Return to the Batcave: The Misadventures of Adam and Burt.

Which was a self aware Batman movie. All of those acted like follow ups to the show. It's been a long time since the legendary Adam West passed away. I do think Burt Ward could return to reprise the role. They also could adapt some of the silliest episodes from the show.

Thus bring in more Batman villains to the game. They also could adapt comics that acts as a follow up as well. Batman 1966 is among the most adapted versions of the franchise. They easily could do more jokes with that. It's mind blowing there's so much with Batman 1966 they still haven't done yet.

I know a lot of people would love to play this DLC. Especially a few people that loved the show as well as the movie. They previously recreated the movie which is why it's excluded here. Another possible angle is Batman gets drugged yeah get use to that. Suddenly everything plays out like an wackier version of that Batman show.

The big issue doing that is a lot of people wouldn't like what parts of that represents. Even if it's being done in a rather playful matter. This also could make some of the worst episodes on the show into something truly amazing!!! Like the famous surfing Joker episode.

People wondered why I was so happy when they announced this Lego Batman game? They also could redo a few sections of the game. Obviously a shorten version of that more comical as well as a bit lighter like the show. Which also could be quite entertaining if they do it right.

Batman 1966 just isn't going quietly into the night. No it's going to do some dated dance moves. Some of which might make you think Batman on drugs lol. In all honestly, we want more surprises like this added to this Lego Batman game. They even could redo a few boss fights but make em even sillier.

They also could help the more joke villain characters stand out. No one wants a few villains barely doing anything. Then their portions of the game quickly over. No what we want is some of those villains be given more time to shine. Possibly some of us laughing from rather cheesy jokes thrown in.

The Penguin show DLC

This also could directly tie into bringing aspects of the Gotham show. The Penguin show was a spin off show of The Batman movie. It would be nice to see more of a villain perceptive in this. Hell Lego DC Super-Villains as well as half of the original Lego Batman done that. Not trying to say hero characters are boring coughs Superman!!!

Sometimes a few villains easily steals the show see what I did there? They also could go for the character attempt running as Mayor in Gotham City. Which also could more directly tie in with Batman Returns movie. Considering they're messing several versions of the characters together. This would be perfect for a future DLC idea.

I'm rather selective which versions of the Penguin I like honestly. I believe I may stated Batman Returns version always been my favorite version. So what if that version very unfaithful to the source material. Actor Danny DeVito really made it work insanely well!!! A careful blending of those versions could give us his rise to power storyline.

Also adding in more villain characters to play as. This by itself could bring a lot to the overall experience. It also would be nice if they add stuff for the Penguin to do around the map. They easily could add in jokes as well as references. The Penguin show being the main focus could fully bring it together.

Sure there's more direct stuff from Gotham show. But right now the Penguin show being a successful spin off of a great Batman movie. Plus some people wants more The Batman stuff in the game. This would be the more likely direction to go in. They also could add in a few more skins. They also could recreate a few more moments from The Batman movie.

The Batman show DLC

I will be honest this cartoon Batman show went under the radar for a long time. This was a successful Batman cartoon show that isn't part of any major composite DC universes. This also easily could bring in a lot of skins for many characters including unplayable ones. Suddenly seeing what many characters looked like from that Batman show.

Clayface would be among the most interesting since a few people with that atlas was on the show. They also could use that to adapt the upcoming Clayface movie. Let's be honest, adding in stuff going to make quite an impact. This also could bring even more Batman villains to the game. Personally I would be thankful for just that.

Although, this cartoon Batman show deserves more respect than that. They easily could spice it up with messing other versions together. They also could recreate some of the episodes. Possibly the famous Batman vs. Dracula movie. I just don't want that movie to just be there as a reference. If we're going for The Batman show we need to go all in!!!

If they could get some of the voice actors to reprise. I'm sure fans of that Batman cartoon show wanna play this!!! The Batman show could bring so much to the overall experience. Especially for people that really can't get enough Batman. Essentially overdosing already with this Lego Batman game. I bet those people are living the dream.

Conclusion

Majority of these I would've done for the game if I were on the team. There's still an insane amount of Batman content they could use. Nearly ninety years worth of Batman content at that. Batman always been my favorite of the DC Big 3. This Lego Batman possibly be one of the absolute greatest Batman games in a long time.

I highly doubt they would allow crossovers bringing in other DC superheroes. A lot of content centering around that was also excluded here. I still don't view it as cutting Batman's potential down. In fact, they wanna keep the focus on the character. They wanna show a good amount of the world why he's a timeless legend.

I felt they're doing an amazing job focusing on the character. Not to rub anyone the wrong way. I personally felt Lego Batman 3 could've been a little better even with DLCs. I felt that played too heavily on crossing over with other DC superheroes. To me, Lego DC Super-Villains worked way better. Lego Batman 2 was done perfectly with crossing over with other DC superheroes.

This was always meant to represent virtually everything Batman possible. Excluding the other DC superheroes easily take away from that. No disrespect towards a lot of them. They want to maintain focus while adding more content. To be honest, from what I seen of the newer licensed Lego games. This is a good idea to better balance what could be coming to the game.

Ultimately you want this Lego Batman game to be great. You want a game to spend countless hours playing. Constantly reliving a lot of nostalgia in some way. Judging by some of the early reviews it sounds like they nailed it!!! I do think this is possibly going to be one of the finest licensed games of the year.

Marvel's Wolverine rant

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I just found out about a rather disappointing announcement. A few months ago I made a particular blog entry requested by a friend. Among the list of upcoming games at the time was Marvel's Wolverine. Now I can safely say it's no longer belongs on that list. I'm glad I didn't vote for it at a particular game awards either.

Here's a link to that blog entry in question down below...

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/12/games-im-very-hyped-for-in-2026.html

Currently RACCOIN, Mouse P.I. for Hire, Romeo is a Dead Man and John Carpenter's Toxic Commando doing well. Sadly situations like this is exactly why I don't like doing such topics. Sony delivered a rather difficult pill to swallow. They made a controversial decision to not bring Marvel's Wolverine to PC. Sony been making questionable to possibly laughable decisions.

It's almost like they want to rip people off. "Oh yeah you can play the game. All you need is buy an PlayStation 5 and the game. There you go suckers!!!" They don't realize how many people they just loss over that announcement. The newer stuff shown of the game isn't blowing people away either. I wish Wolverine could've had another decent game.

We don't know how they connect the game to their Spider-Man series. They also increased the prices for PlayStation 5 was a horrible idea. The fact they actually thought it was okay to do this to people!!! I already decided I'm not going to get into Marvel's Spider-Man series. Currently I only have Steam with these being such huge games.

I would be lucky to have enough room on my memory or my computer possibly handles the game at all. For what's already on Steam prior to this announcement. Suddenly I think back to that one vote for an game awards. At the time wasn't happy I couldn't vote for it along with the three games I selected. Now it's becoming quite clear this Wolverine game going to bomb hard.

It never was worthy of that vote I see that now. Especially what I been seeing from Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight. I rather play that over this any day of the week!!! No surprise, Resident Evil Requiem hit the ground swinging!!! I'm currently waiting to see how 007 First Light going to do. Which comes out next Wednesday funny enough.

I always been a huge Wolverine fan for a long time. I refuse to go out my way to buy an PS5 just to play this game. Especially Sony kept getting hacked recently. No thanks I'll stick to Steam and GOG a lot safer. Not only that, I also heard this Wolverine game might end up with alright maybe a little worst dialogue. I mean come on this is Wolverine!!!

One of the most bad ass members of the X-Men!!! This is how they're going to treat the character is inexcusable. At this point, Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics nails Wolverine!!! I highly recommend go play that collection over this!!! Especially if Wolverine among your favorite X-Men members.

I also refuse to accept the same developers previously done both Spyro and Ratchet & Clank series. They're still making Ratchet & Clank games. Yeah you can only go so far with such an reception. I wouldn't necessary say they're as dead to me as Naughty Dog. The original company behind Crash Bandicoot series.

In a way they aren't far from getting the same treatment. I'm more hyped for Bloodstained: The Scarlet Engagement, Gears of War: E-Day and a bit for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls respectively. I'm sure all of those going to quickly blow Marvel's Wolverine away!!! You might've noticed I didn't say much about the other huge games I'm hyped for.

In my mind, bringing any of those that's out into this. Further sinks Marvel's Wolverine like quick sand. From what I seen of Fatal Frame II remake it's not even close!!! Marvel's Wolverine possibly going to start get a lot of preorders canceled soon. If that doesn't tell them how stupid this decision is. Then they really deserve to experience the full backlash of everything they're about to get in a couple months.

Marvel's Wolverine is set up to fail hard the way it's currently going. I really wish they didn't do that decision. Also rumors of a possibly troubled development isn't going to help things either. Especially for those that played their Spider-Man games. To be fair it's more of a life with the little time it has. Compared to the famous bad Suicide Squad game that's a spin off to Batman: Arkham series.

DC already had a lot of backlash with that. Now it looks like Marvel you're up for the same situation. Marvel within video games been questionable. You also could say that about DC which is also true. But man Marvel kept getting stinkers like no tomorrow. Marvel's Wolverine has a little hope to not entirely suck.

Even if it doesn't suck, it won't be something worth remembering. Especially if you played X-Men Arcade or X-Men Origins: Wolverine the PS3/Xbox 360 versions. Just saying there's a few options that's more worth your time. In all honestly, Marvel's Wolverine is going to fail hard. Also being a few months away from Grand Theft Auto VI.

I'm even more convinced Sony isn't thinking straight. It turns out there's an even bigger disconnect with their consumers I could possibly imagined. A room full of executives still makes money regardless if the game does well or not is kinda disgusting to me. Therefore, they don't even care how it's affecting everyone else.

Here's a game that should've been a possible renewal of spin off video games. Yet they are really going out their way to virtually kill every chance it could've had with people. I still think the game going to be a little better than Saints Row reboot. Which really isn't saying much either. Honestly, I'm even further done with Sony!!!

I really dislike how they do business video games wise. It's mind blowing they are going to do this!!! Marvel's Wolverine could've been canceled. At least, none of us had to experience a rather possibly disappointing game!!! Especially overtime all the stuff they intended to do comes out. I rather have that with this Wolverine game than it even coming out period!!!

I don't wanna say it's cancer but the game getting more difficult to look at or accept beyond that announcement. We did need another Wolverine game in all honestly. I felt they trimmed his claws before he even came out to play. This is undoubtably terrible they're going through it. Marvel's Wolverine gets it's planned DLCs cut down or none of it comes out.

Both are signs the game virtually already dead before arrival. I highly doubt at this point Sony going to do anything to save it. They literately nailed the final nail in it's coffin. Honestly, I can't even believe I'm writing this blog entry. In some ways this felt like a huge waste of everyone's time including my own. It also was a decent way to better present exactly how that announcement made me felt.

In another way I really shouldn't be too surprise with the current decline in AAA games. Especially when indie games are doing insanely well right now. Where it stands I refuse to play this Wolverine game. I also refuse to talk about it longer than necessary aka this blog entry!!! The bottom line is this Wolverine game should've gotten canned to save us from such a situation.

Especially when fan games may differ in quality. But there's some rather decent fan games around. I felt some of those already possibly better than this!!! Hell I could go full blown X-Men in Garry's Mod. I don't have S&box but that's on my list. Either going to be way better as well. Marvel's Wolverine is going to be forgotten the very day it comes out which is rather sad to think about.

My thoughts on Four Newer Licensed Killers in Dead by Daylight

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I may talk about the four newer licensed killer characters. To be honest, all of them were quite interesting to me in some way. I wish I would've stayed a little longer. The upcoming tenth anniversary on the way. I recently discussed my guess on the licensed killer or killers we're about to get.

Today I will be talking about Dracula, Ken Kaneki, Springtrap and Stranger Things Vecna respectively. What an interesting bunch of guest characters indeed. Bringing in Castlevania, Tokyo Ghoul, Five Nights at Freddy's, and Stranger Things again. Now tied up with Resident Evil having two licensed chapters.

I will start with Dracula to finish things with Vecna. Dracula brings in shape shifting to a degree. He can transform int a huge bat that can teleport to vault spots or a huge wolf. I really was surprised they added in his transformed form. From Castlevania: Circle of the Moon I loved that!!!

I also loved Dracula has this cool fire attack that can hit multiple survivors. Officially Konami's second killer in the game behind Silent Hill's Pyramid Head. Now both of them being in 2v8 mode is mind blowing!!! I also happy with his cosmetics being very awesome at best.

The fact one of the most iconic game franchises now in Dead by Daylight. Castlevania perfectly ties into this composite canon within Dead by Daylight. I respected they finally went for Castlevania's Dracula. I was very satisfied from everything I seen with the character. Another aspect I liked they tie in was somewhere at a distance was the iconic castle.

I also felt in his bio the perfect opportunity for The Entity to take Dracula. This is a bit interesting for people that didn't read the bio or not that familiar with the main Castlevania timeline. Julius Belmont defeated Dracula during a Solar Eclipse. Unexpectedly this led to Dracula having a successor/descendant named Soma Cruz.

This particular dying moment for Dracula, The Entity simply took him on the spot. I know it's a little weird since Dracula was using powers from a deity being Chaos. Who created the Chaos Realm meant to be the same scale in size to the main universe. I previously had that concern with The Demogorgon. Until I found out that particular Demogorgon was created in the real world without Vecna.

I also liked Castlevania done a lot of cool crossovers the same year this chapter dropped. They once done a rather mind blowing sale with those crossover. Castlevania is officially back thanks to several factors. Dead by Daylight getting Dracula was essential for it's success. Such an iconic game villain loosely based on the famous novel version of the same character.

This further opened the doors to more video game crossovers. Which I'm actually quite happy about. There's a huge amount of horror game franchises they could possibly go for. Castlevania chapter was a huge success indeed. I also liked they went the distance with the Legacy skins. Even Death from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night gets in on the action through The Nurse.

The next one was a huge surprise to me. I previously kept noticing leaks about a possible Tokyo Ghoul crossover. A little closer to the announcement, it became clear the crossover happening. Already out doing Junji Ito and Attack on Tian crossovers. In terms, this was treated as a chapter. I instantly knew before I saw his bio when he was taken.

In my mind, the perfect opportunity for him to be a killer. Most fans of the franchise already knows this. He fought back against this ghoul tortured him a good while. This was the one point in the story his humanity was gone. Now for those that aren't familiar with the character or the franchise. Kaneki eventually led the world in a surprising direction for the better.

Kaneki still done some not pleasant stuff on the way. He was taken following his hair turned white. Personally I loved how they handled the character in the game play. A horror Spider-Man style that swings at long distances towards survivors. You bet that's terrifying to imagine. I do prefer his mori over Dracula's it's just more satisfying to me.

I also was surprised they done a few Legacy skins. Majority being survivor skins funny enough. The very ghoul that started everything in Tokyo Ghoul is in the game. In a weird way, we needed another killer with tentacles. Not in that sense sick bastards!!! I was in all honestly quite happy how they handled Kaneki.

Five Nights at Freddy's franchise is quite huge even for an indie mascot horror game franchise. I knew Springtrap was another huge requested horror icon. They actually went a little bigger than I expected. A new map that's both outside with some sections being inside a famous restaurant. I personally wished they would've done more Legacy skins.

Springtrap himself was done amazingly well!! This is a hot take I'm not a fan of The Huntress. I felt he's a superior variation of that concept. He does have an hatchet he can throw. Unlike her, he instantly can get his hatchet back. He also could get a free grab if he reaches the survivor hit with the weapon in time. He's also armed with a long blade.

I really liked they added doors that acts as teleports. He even can get a free grab if a survivor inside one of these doors. Another huge reason I'm quite happy about the character. Actor Matthew Lillard reprised the role in a Legacy skin for Springtrap. I know some might be a bit disappointed he doesn't get to reprise Stu from the original Scream in the game.

I'm happy he done a lot of voice overs for the game. They done an amazing job looking like him from those FNaF movies. People waited a long time for the franchise to show up. I felt they truly delivered bringing it to the game. I was hoping for some Shaggy jokes. Considering Lillard also famous being Shaggy in many Scooby-Doo things.

Of course, we have to talk about Stranger Things Vecna. I can't go any further without discussing the elephant in the room. Now the game has two different Vecnas. Which is mind blowing but they did replied to a question about that. The way they view the situation is they're both incredibly different from each other.

They may share the same atlas but they truly are vastly different characters. D&D version is more magical while Stranger Things version being more mental powers theme. ST Vecna not only inspired by D&D Vecna. Some of the licensed killers they already gotten also were inspirations as well . Pinhead in terms of his terrifying presence.

Freddy a bit more interesting in this situation. In a way, both target people through their minds. One of Vecna's hands strikingly similar to Freddy's claw glove. Robert Englund plays Vecna's dad on the show. ST Vecna plays very differently from D&D Vecna. He also has some cool cosmetic skins. Another huge difference is what they're called in the game.

I absolutely loved how over the top violent his mori is. Another spinning saw animatronics shows up. Springtrap forces survivors to get sawed up. I highly doubt people wanted to see an empty animatronic gets stuffed with a survivor. This is easily among my favorite moris from a licensed killer in the game. Some might criticize the length a little bit though.

D&D Vecna called The Lich while ST Vecna called The First. The later led to confusion for those that haven't seen the show. Some quickly saw it as D&D Vecna was the first. In a few ways they would be right. But the usage of the name was actually meant for being the first test subject. I'm glad Eleven also finally in the game, she belongs in there.

This might come off as another hot take. Why Dustin out of all the possible characters they could've chosen. Yes I'm aware characters like Eddie were Legacy skins. But shouldn't this easily been either Hopper or Max? Hopper became Eleven's dad thanks to a scientist. He's been through some crazy situations himself.

Max was one of ST Vecna's targets to start the final phase of his plan. She ended up being trapped inside his mind a good while. I mean look Dustin is a character a lot of people loves or at least respects to a degree. This virtually has nothing about the actor's disability either. I'll lose respect anyone trying to play this on that.

They actually given ST Vecna two moris in the game. I liked both of them more than expected. Some players felt D&D Vecna better but it depends on things including your taste in things. I do like they also given him a lot of voice overs. It's not from the actual actor but still sounds great. I just wished his bio had more interesting stuff written than what it actually is.

Conclusion

In recent years it's more fun to watch Dead by Daylight then actually play it. Survivors constantly gen rushing with the developers doing nothing about. Many questionable changes with selling out on cosmetics. I bet all of their kids went to rather decent universities or colleges by now. I don't support those aspects of it's future.

The actual aspects I truly give a damn about though. They could go for more iconic horror franchises. Personally I want more indie horror franchises. As long they kept going for some of my favorite franchises. I'll always be close by watching them. Honestly, for a few years that's what kept me interested in Dead by Daylight.

Even if some aspects of the characters is a little disappointing. Like I get why they taken Chucky from Child's Play 2. Which is actually my favorite Chucky movie. But I felt not going for Cult of Chucky or Chucky show limited some of that potential. I really was hoping being to swap between multiple dolls in the maps.

This also would've given them more to work with the cosmetics. Speaking of which, Tiffany in the game as a Legacy skin for Chucky. Yes Jennifer Tilly reprised the role with several of her own voice overs. Another massive disappointment I can't let go even if Hellraiser DLC gone. I really wanted the hospital with some sections being Hell from Hellbound: Hellraiser 2 movie as a map.

We only gotten Pinhead with Chatterer being a Legacy skin. Do I even need to mention Remake Freddy? Englund more recently wants to do the character one more time. This could be that final time we ever get to hear him as Freddy. Yeah not even as a Legacy skin with voice overs. This next hot take might actually upset Saw fans.

I personally dislike Amanda a lot. I was hoping for Agent Hoffman instead. Obviously who wants to play as a dying old man? There's been a few Saw movies since then. She also has some cosmetics with some looking better than others. For me, that's the one aspect of Saw chapter I disliked. Everything else about it was surprisingly done amazingly well.

I know some of this might be viewed as me having high standards. I previously confessed to several things I had such standards for. But this is currently being seen as the big crossover horror video game. You sorta want the very best they could possibly give. I do think there's always room to grow. Sadly some of the stuff they're focusing on actually what's killing the game they're working on.

It also doesn't help Fortnite and Call of Duty been adding in licensed characters. Indirectly making a lot of people sick of crossovers. Especially when I was a kid playing video games. Crossovers within em was such a rarity. Now it's virtually everywhere to the point it's too difficult to ignore anymore. So I would understand those people not supporting em for many reasons.

The crazy part is Dead by Daylight developers thinks there's ten more years worth of content. Who really wants to play the game for twenty years straight? You could be missing out on a lot of newer games you wanna play. Possibly a lot of classics you previously had or never played before. It quickly felt like you're missing so much in your life.

I already reached the point if I do return it'll be brief. Just long enough to maybe enjoy something then leave. Which is a real shame that's the current state of this horror game. It used to be more balanced as well as more actual fun. Now it felt too survivor focused to the point. Any major killer players still playing already knows hours wasted before they resume playing it.

I may get what I need out while I'm here. I wanna support the crossovers as much as I could. But if they really don't change their priories soon. They may loss a warning amount of people playing the game. They even went forward with a controversial update they previously delayed. I think the point was cancel it altogether could've saved your game guys!!!

The fact they did not care enough to do that one update means they only care about the money. I really don't wanna view it that way. But it would explain the sheer lack of trying to fix things for killer players. They believe more money in making survivor players happier than those players. When they should've tried to balance things for both sides was the right way to go about this.

Dead by Daylight 10th Anniversary Killer guess

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I may been away from Dead by Daylight. I always kept a close eye to see whose coming to the game. Yesterday, we gotten a short clip that really gotten people talking. Usually they do a huge requested licensed chapter for their anniversaries. There's a huge possibly one of my most wanted horror icons finally coming to the game despite things.

Prior to this clip, a lot of people were convinced we're getting Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th. Jason always been among the most requested horror icons to come to the game for a long time. This short clip officially ruled him out for the upcoming anniversary chapter. Personally before the clip I was thinking Art the Clown from Terrifier series.

Considering Terrifier 4 on the way meant to end the series. Art became a huge request among the horror icons as well. Sadly he also gotten ruled out by this clip. The actual clip in question shows a young guy on a train. They quickly throw in clues forcing you to pause often. You also might have to get a little creative to see some of these clues.

People noticed the word Circus was on the train. The more interesting portions are at a subway. The bigger clues showed up that made it more obvious. Like what appears to be Stephen with a crown drawn above. Obviously the famous horror author Stephen King. When the glass broke like that at a nearby building. It was playing off that scene in It: Chapter Two with a kid.

You know the mess up scene Bill couldn't save the boy then watched him die horribly. Which also involved glass getting broken. If you pause at the right time, the guy's eyes goes white. A reference to seeing the Deadlights. The narrator sounds a little too much like Pennywise from the movies as well as It: Welcome to Derry show.

The guy in question looks like a younger Stephen King. Some people possibly think it's King as a survivor. Which would directly reference his many cameos among his adaptations over the years. Assuming this was him we been watching the entire time. The ending portions of the narration was directly describing Pennywise.

Yes this also would fit the description of The Entity. This thing has a lot of killers from many universes. I'm curious to see if The Entity forced Pennywise to serve it or they have a neutral agreement. Which means they would often share those trapped within the realms. The constant fear in those realms means Pennywise doesn't need to hibernate anymore.

The number 13 is a few possible references. It movie the majority of the Losers club was around 13 years old. It turns out Stephen King also has a fear of the number 13. Some saw this as a direct reference to Friday the 13th franchise. I can't argue it isn't by any means. Stephen King isn't a fan of video games. Assuming we're actually getting Pennywise is truly mind blowing.

I will be more honest, I don't think they stop at getting Pennywise. This is their tenth anniversary for the game. I actually think if they gotten King on board. They possibly went for some of his most iconic villains. Which means if I'm right we're finally getting a multi killer chapter. I know another huge requested horror icon was Jack Torrance from The Shining.

In particular the movie King hated but he okayed Doctor Sleep movie being a sequel to that. His dislike for the movie led to making The Shining Miniseries. I would be surprised if we're also getting Torrace. King made him the Miniseries version was in the game as a Legacy cosmetic. I don't think he would've agree otherwise.

Another huge one I think they possibly going for. He actually better ties into how The Entity does things. The Man in Black who has many names through out King's multiverse. A evil magic user that easily have some famous Legacy skins. They also could give The Houndmaster's dog a Cujo Legacy skin as well.

Which would be rather sick if they do. Also tie in to the upcoming Cujo remake. We also possibly could get Carrie. Not a lot of people knows this Carrie was his first horror novel he's written. Which quickly gotten adapted into a classic movie. For some reason already getting remade again!!! I also saw Annie Wilkes from Misery getting thrown around.

Personally if Wilkes coming to the game. I really hope they bring in Kathy Bates to reprise the role. She's an amazing actress, she would do truly amazing for this version of the character. They also possibly could go for George Stark from The Dark Half. A fictional character that died in his book series.

He ends up coming to the real world to force his author to bring him back to life. Essentially being the author's dark side a truly horrible person. Considering for a few Legacy skins, The Entity made digital characters into actual living beings. This would fit in with The Entity plus won't need his humanity removed.

Stark would be a rather interesting choice. There's a lot of Stephen King characters to choose from. If I had to pick one to be the main survivor character. No one even comes close to Roland Deschain from The Dark Tower series. This man traveled a few universes to reach the tower. No one is more prepared for this hell than Deschain.

He directly would tie in to The Entity taken a lot of people across universes. Of course, The Entity remove any real way to fight back. In all honestly, this character really needs a more faithful adaptation. This could be that if Roland coming to the game. I highly doubt an handful of King's villains work together.

Let me clarify since a few killers has allies to a degree. I don't think we would have a few of them in the matches together. This would make the game unbalanced as well as confusing to play. All the crazy possibilities depending which villain characters were chosen. If The Twins made anything clear, people don't wanna swap between killers.

I also doubt all of them being force to share one killer slot. Which would bag a lot of questions with too little answers. King still writing books today is a testament in itself. I always wanted some of these characters in Dead by Daylight. I know rather ambitious guess for their upcoming tenth anniversary. But if you think about it, this would be the perfect opportunity to go that ambitious.

This could be a once in a life time opportunity. I'm hoping they actually convinced King to be on board with this. In my mind, it isn't just Pennywise we're getting. The fear not getting any of them led to more of his characters getting in the game possibly. Which is quite crazy logic when you think about it. If I were doing this anniversary chapter, Stephen King among my top choices.

Yes even higher than Jason and Art respectively. I do think eventually those horror icons going to be in the game in the near future. Pennywise's popularity kept going up with his adaptations for the most part. It: Welcome to Derry already blowing people away. I know some people doesn't want another clown in the game.

Yes his most famous form is a clown. But Pennywise essentially be whatever he wants to be as well. This is why I strongly felt he's going to be called The Shape Shifter. I highly doubt they call him The It or The Thing. The later being another huge requested horror icon I really want in the game. The fact people also requesting Art the Clown should say something.

I do felt more indie horror franchises needs to be in the game. Some of the ones I seen or played were truly amazing stuff. This also gives us a lot of possible Legacy skins for the survivors. I don't think they're going for He Who Walks Behind the Rows from Children of the Corn series. This character is widely inconsistent in the actual movies making it very frustrating.

Which version of the character to use. We already have a few maps with corn fields. I also don't think Children of the Corn franchise is popular enough either. Personally my most hated horror movie franchise. A slight chance they might possibly consider going for Pet Sematary. King confessed this was among his books that scares him the most.

There's a few movies of the franchise people still talks about. The concept involves burying people and animals at an Indian burial ground. Their corpses becomes possessed doing unspeakable things. They actually could add in a new mechanic for the concept. Sure this could cause some problems being a new feature.

At the same time, survivors could finally continue playing after being killed or sacrificed. This would be mind blown for such a game. The fallen are now assisting the killer or killers in 2v8 mode to go after their former team mates. This by itself could bring a lot to the overall experience. This would be among my biggest ifs if they're going for Stephen King.

At the same time, people would have a lot of fun with this!!! King easily tie in to majority what's already in Dead by Daylight. Hell King himself could be the new killer. He is among the most broken characters in his own multiverse. Another cool idea if The Observer still alive within the realms. He could team up with King to directly face The Entity.

King being in the game could go in so many different directions. Honestly, it would make me briefly come back to the game to play his characters. Stephen King always meant a lot to me for a long time. To be honest, some of the newer licensed killers I been interested to play as well. I highly doubt they reveal Pennywise being The Entity.

If it were to be the case. Then Pennywise unofficially was the first licensed horror icon in the game. Beating out Michael Myers from Halloween franchise. I highly doubt that's how they wanna blow our minds. Stephen King simply brings a ridiculous amount of possibilities with him. I really hoping they went big with the horror author.

I did figure out the newer number puzzle. Chigge, I looked up to find Chiggers not racist I promise. It led to a particular type of insects. Now Pennywise also has a famous insect form. Which further confirmed to me it's Pennywise the short clip was talking about. Pennywise is one of a couple beings to predate the multiverse's existence.

We already gotten Freddy in the game sadly based on A Nightmare on Elm Street remake version. The Dredge itself would be similar to cursed spirits in Jujutsu Kaisen and devils in Chainsaw Man. A being created out of composite fear from a small group. Inevitably we were going to get a being more god like that loves causing fear.

Now I know Dungeons & Dragons Vecna was a threat to his multiverse. The fact an handful of these killers are on such a scale. Speaks volumes how truly powerful The Entity possibly could be. This could be the most insane amount of licensed content for an anniversary chapter to date. I really hope that ends up being the case here.

What I hope to see is full blown fan service. A massive love letter to Stephen King's works. Literately in nearly every possible way. We're getting some rather cool, sick stuff. For this to be done justice it needs to be very overwhelming. This is Stephen King we're talking about here. To just go for one character easily could be seen as a huge insult to him as well as his legacy.

Even if that character was Pennywise, the people always wants more. King been giving the world nightmares since 1974. I expect whatever what we're given to be very well designed. I also hope they really add in a lot of references to his stories. We also possibly getting some rather amazing animations. Not only that, some amazing voice overs.

If they get Bill Skarsgard to reprise the role. A lot of people stopped whatever they're doing to check out Pennywise. Even if he doesn't, they'll find someone that could somehow make it work. I highly doubt the legendary Jack Nicholson briefly gets out of retirement to reprise his role as Jack Torrance. Thankfully Henry Thomas who played the character in Doctor Sleep available.

As for Carrie, which version would she be based on? The assumption would be the classic 1976 movie version. There's also a chance we might be getting the 2013 version of the character. I know some people expected The Mist to show up. I don't think they could do just one creature. Also I highly doubt they're used The Mist show for this.

If anything The Mist movie might give us characters or Legacy skin cosmetics. It would be tricky to blend in the mist with the fog. This is why I don't think they're going for The Mist. In all honestly, it's hard to tell which direction they're going. I still can't help some of these clues screaming Pennywise. I'm going to be incredibly disappointed it's nothing Stephen King at all.

Stephen King is ideal for a multiplayer horror game representing many types of fear. King himself has plenty of stories to directly tie into Dead by Daylight's lore. People forget they do connect licensed franchises by their stories being rewritten. Which makes me more curious how The Entity gotten any of these Stephen King characters?

You can tell I'm possibly reading incredibly deep about these clues. But you also can't blame me either. What's bigger than Jason right? Of course the horror author Stephen King. King could be bringing many gifts as well as surprises with him. If it turns out to be exactly what I think it is. This is easily going to be my favorite anniversary chapter for the game to date.

I also could've said beyond this point they aren't going to top it. Which says a lot about how essential it is to have Stephen King in the game. Two of the biggest horror things coming together. It's way better than the perfect sandwich. What we're getting is simply beyond gold. What we're possibly getting is something we may never ever see again.

This is exactly why I think they are going this big for Stephen King. Virtually majority of those requests with just enough to spice things up. How could any party lose on such an opportunity? Especially a mind blowing one that's going to change the world the moment the chapter hits. I do expect chaos in many forms with this!!!

Why Metal Gear should win the poll to get into GOG's preservation program?

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, not long ago today GOG started a poll for those in their patron program. Five classic games including the original Metal Gear are the choices. I will confess I actually haven't played the other four games selected for the poll prior to writing this. I did play through the original Metal Gear a few times.

Obviously everyone has different taste in things. It's even possible you may dislike all five games. Just like you actually love these games. The original Metal Gear was a mind blowing game for it's time. Legendary game developer Hideo Kojima came up with a surprisingly complex game. Prior to this, the world was more use to games killing enemies.

He threw in a twist you may not have enough ammo. You also had to get through trying to not cause alerts. This led to quite an unique experience. You had to use your wits to get around many situations. A lot of key cards to memorize where to use them. You use the codec to contract with a few characters. The story at first appeared simple until the twists started coming.

By the end of the game, everything you thought you knew was turned all upside down. You play as a young Solid Snake that's exploring a few locations. Here's a game that was previously thought to be impossible for MSX2. A lot of tricks you could do in the game was clear proof of fantastic game design. The audio as a whole is so iconic for that era.

I confess with a lot going on my end. I'm not in their patron program. I decided to write this to convince people to possibly vote for the original Metal Gear. Although it's a little indirectly led to a once truly fantastic, legendary game franchise. Considering the questionably designed NES counterpart game with it's own sequel.

You wouldn't have some of the finest stealth video games in history if this never existed. This by itself truly speaks volumes for it's legacy. You get to rescue a lot of people including the legendary Gray Fox. You also got a few floors to explore. Some rather unique puzzles I'm still impressed they pulled off. Some of the most intense boss fights in history of the genre.

Metal Gear is a game that completely changed the genre as a whole. It also changed how some people want to experience games with guns. There's a lot of people that prefers only using them when they need to. You also wouldn't have Assassin's Creed, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell, Syphon Filter and Hitman without it.

The original Metal Gear is a true master piece. Despite not looking like much on the surface. Once you get beneath that wow this game truly delivers. You get such an amazing action stealth game. I also liked some boss fights forces you to take them on in particular ways. There's a good variety of enemies through out the games.

Obviously a lot of the bosses stands out. Very few were rather unexpected during an 1st playthrough if you didn't use any guides. You have a lot to remember as you're playing this. The journey getting to the end is just satisfying enough. Sometimes you may wanna replay the game again. I know the port I played had a boss rush that's well designed.

Konami nearly went bankrupt until the success of Metal Gear on NES true story. I won't get into the whole Hideo vs Konami situation. I will say this game was the beginning to Kojima's legendary career in gaming. I also gotta mention this ended up getting it's own direct sequel on the same computer system.

Which was truly mind blowing easily one of the greatest Metal Gear games I ever played!!! The original Metal Gear is essentially to gaming as a whole. In a game with the odds stacked against you. The challenge can differ many ways. You could play barely killing anyone but take longer or kill everything to run through it faster?

This game also allows you to make enemies unconscious a few ways. You even could sneak around inside a card board box. A recurring joke within the franchise. Translation can differ depending on which version you're playing. To clarify, there's a few translations for the original MSX2 version. The newer versions updated the character imagines within the codec.

Metal Gear is in a rather huge map connected by locations. Somehow Kojima found a way to make it work wonders. Essentially an 8-bit computer game pulled off this much!!! He's given us such an iconic stealth game hero. Every major location truly stands out. A lot of the appeal is talking to other characters.

Either upon rescuing them or through the codec. This game surprisingly has a lot of personality. Every weapon you get to wield all differs just enough to help make the game play exciting. One of my personal favorite weapons is a remote control rocket launcher. Easily among the most unique aspects of the game play.

You also gotta memorize trap locations as well as how to avoid them. Which can get rather tricky from trivial and error. Metal Gear will rough you up to a degree. Once you figured out a lot of stuff it becomes a fun action stealth game. Even with a lot of back tracking somehow it remains fun. The original Metal Gear truly deserves to be in that preservation program.

No disrespect towards Thief Gold, Thief II, Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive and Commandos Ammo Pack respectively. I'm sure those were such amazing classic games as well. I just can't deny everything that happened because of this classic stealth game. The original Metal Gear led to so many things since it's release.

Metal Gear is a game you must play before you die. Especially if you're a huge Metal Gear fan that surprisingly never played it before. I felt a lot of those people are in for quite a surprise. Yes this MSX2 game held up amazingly well to the test of time. I strongly felt this game should win the poll soon. Metal Gear is so essential to the gaming industry it deserves that spot.

Yhwach vs Lucius similarities

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I also been writing a long list of similarities between Bleach's Yhwach and Black Clover's Lucius Zogratis. The more I kept comparing the two, the more obvious Lucius really was another Yhwach. Also currently there isn't much to go on regarding their connections on the internet. I should share my list of similarities with some being quite surprising.

Yhwach and Lucius are the main antagonist of their respective stories.

Yhwach was the source of quincy powers while Lucius made himself the source of grimoires in the Clover Kingdom.

Yhwach was the son of the original Soul King while Lucius shared a body with his twin brother Julius.

Yhwach was the king of the quincies that commanded the Wandenreich that also rule Hueco Mundo later claimed his father's throne while Lucius manipulated his siblings that ruled the Spade Kingdom as well as his paladins.

Yhwach foreseen his demise by Ichigo while Lucius foreseen his demise by Asta and Yuno.

Yhwach made Uryu his successor while Yuno wanted to avenge Asta by defeating Lucius.

Some of the same powers they shared.

Yhwach shown Ichigo respect to a degree while Lucius never shown respect to Asta and desperately wanted respect from Yuno.

Yhwach turned off Masaki Kurosaki's powers led to her death while Lucius reincarnated Asta and Liebe's mom to use against them.

Yhwach was based on God whose name references his Jewish name YHWH that absorbed the original Soul King and Mimihagi to become the new Soul King while Lucius considered himself to be a god whose name is a variation of Lucifer.

Yhwach tricked Ichigo into killing the original Soul King while following Lucius' death, his brother Julius fixed things before he died.

Uryu fired a Still Silver arrow into Yhwach then rewrite the past to help Ichigo win while Julius stole control of their body forcing Lucius to take two slashes with both antagonists defeated the same way.

Yhwach attacked the Soul Society, Hueco Mundo and Soul King Palace while Lucius attacked Clover Kingdom, Heart Kingdom, Witches' Forest and Hino Country.

Upon absorbing the original Soul King gain a monsterous form while Lucius gain a new form after he became the source of grimoires in the Clover Kingdom.

Yhwach was an unusual being while Lucius whose possessed by a devil loss to Asta who lacked magic yet mastered usage of anti-magic that works outside of the natural order of things.

Original quincies gotten close to Yhwach that lasted over a thousand years before he threw away his people while Lucius forced his will onto others transforming them into his paladins.

Yhwach faded following his last conversation with Ichigo while Lucius faded following his last conversation mentally with his brother Julius.

When Yhwach is asleep, he swaps The Almighty with Jugram's The Balance while Julius and Lucius share the same body respectively swapping between black and blonde hair men.

Yhwach merged the human world, Hueco Mundo, the Soul Society and the Soul King Palace together to remove death altogether out of fear while Lucius planned to alter the world to remove death as part of his vision.

Yhwach wanted revenge against the soul reapers while Lucius upon seeing the future decided to make it happen.

Yhwach defeated Ichibe'e, the strongest of the 0 division captains in the Soul King Palace while Lucius finished off half of the devil Lucifero who was the strongest devil.

Rory disguised as Yhwach faced Yamamoto's Bankai forced him to face many fallen comrades while Lucius reincarnated a few deceased characters as his paladins.

Yhwach strip powers from impure quincies caused Kanae Katagiri, Uryu's mom to die while Lucius' siblings murdered Yuno's father.

Before connecting with humans, Yhwach couldn't do anything while Lucius wasn't able to walk before becoming possessed by a devil.

Yhwach easily defeated Mimihagi whose immune to his foreseeing futures power who appears as a hand representing the Right Hand of the Soul King while Lucius defeated Asta twice who he can't foreseen futures Asta affected with Liebe replacing Asta's right arm.

Yhwach strip Jugram and Gerard of their powers killed them while Lucius claimed magic types from his siblings and their devils after they died.

Yhwach was accompanied by two beings predating his existence that's connected to his father while Lucius' siblings were possessed by the three 3 strongest devils.

Yhwach became the new Soul King while Lucius took control of his brother Julius' body who was the Wizard King.

Conclusion

I was more surprised Lucius had more in common than Naruto's Kaguya. It's no surprise Yhwach could easily destroy the Black Clover verse with ease. It's debatable if Death Battle would do this match up. I am assuming they might also tie in to Black Clover ended this season we're in. What I do know is now I can say Lucius and Yhwach virtually are the same character.

Even considering their differences are among the most broken anime/manga villains I ever heard of. I seen enough anime to know that's quite an statement. This is going to be the last time I'll directly talk about this match up. For what it's worth it turned out to be a rather interesting match up. Despite being a huge stomp in favor of Yhwach.

Death Battle Fight Prediction: Yhwach (Bleach) vs Lucius Zogratis (Black Clover) Follow Up

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I realized there's some more information that wasn't in my fight prediction blog. In particular the one I wrote for Yhwach vs Lucius. Some of these following information quite interesting to simply leave out altogether. I figured why not do a follow up post adding in those missing parts of my argument?

Lucius couldn't foreseen futures affected by Asta. Now Asta himself lacks magic automatically making him being unable to be seen through that ability. Anti-magic from the devil Liebe actually works outside the natural order of things including most magic types. In comparison, Yhwach himself was a rather unusual spiritually being.

The Almighty operates similar to Asta's Anti-magic. Yhwach also absorbed two gods to become the new Soul King. Further making himself virtually unable to be seen in every future he affects. Considering he can rewrite them, this means every future Lucius foreseen doomed to fail. Yhwach automatically affecting every future at once.

Aizen used Hado #99: Goryutenmetsu which is capable of erasing anything from existence. This technique unleashed five energy dragons that either absorbs or destroys spiritual energy with the area. Yhwach was capable of surviving against such an technique.

A variation of the concept exists with Asta's Anti-magic that effectively nullifies magic even of the strongest magic types. I will quickly go over a few magic types that follows some or all Hado #99's description to a degree. You can bet some of these are truly ridiculous themselves.

His former captain Yamo had Dimensional Slash. Which is capable of destroying magic as well as cut through dimensions!!! Both Lucifero and Lucius through Gravity magic create black holes. Word Soul magic can use words to destroy, erase or create including magic attacks.

Absorption magic can absorb massive amounts of magic then release it. Which also makes the user almost immune to elemental attacks. Demon Fire magic uses fire to burn through magic including concepts that do not exist physically. Yes this actually is a concept within Black Clover.

I bring up all of these magic types because Yhwach survived Hado #99. Which could absorb or destroy anything within it's radius. Yhwach was at the center of that meaning Lucius won't get far with making black holes. By now you should be seeing how truly ridiculous Yhwach actually is!!!

Asta's swords differ in some way how they work. Demon-Slayer Sword can destroy or deflect any magic spell. Demon-Dweller Sword can absorb magic of opponents then releases it as slashes. Demon-Destroyer Sword can erase magic effects which does include complex spells as well as curses.

Asta also has a technique called Black Hurricane that was used in his final duel against Yuno. A spin attack that absorbs all magic in a huge location. Obviously Asta's usage of Anti-magic comes the closest to Hado #99. Ultimately along with Yuno was the one to put Lucius down for good.

The only reason it took so long for the duo to defeat him. Lucius was constantly focus on avoiding making contact with Asta's Anti-magic. Almost the entire time including the short gap Asta was out the fight. It even highly suggests Asta's Anti-magic was capable of fully nullifying Lucius' ridiculous amount of magic.

I did take a closer look at Steel magic. Which is quite a versal magic type itself. Unfortunately, Lucius wouldn't know anything about Still Silver arrows. Sure he could create steel arrows with the magic type. Lucius won't know he would need Yhwach's blood.

Not to mention, Yhwach cast Auswashlen first. Then apply Yhwach's blood to that arrow to temporary disable his powers. To sum it up, he could in theory recreate the arrow. He just lacks the other essentials to make that happen. Also if this were an one on one fight there wouldn't be any other quincies.

Therefore, Yhwach simply wouldn't have a reason to cast that. Further removing a possible win condition for Lucius off the board. Another huge factor is later in the story Lucius directly controlled a lot of people. Essentially being the one will concept in an army like Dr. Robotnik.

This means while facing Asta and Yuno. He was controlling a lot of characters at the same time with huge distances included. On paper, this could be ideal in the event Lucius were to get close to being defeated. But his over confidence going to work against him.

Lucius could have his entire army. Yhwach by himself could easily destroy em. There's still a critical factor I surprisingly forgot to mention. Well it was mentioned when I discussed Yhwach vs Kaguya though. Yhwach is spiritually connected to every quincy there ever was.

We know a lot of quincies we seen in the final arc are soul reaper captain levels. Everyime a quincy dies, Yhwach gets a longer life span, their abilities and added more raw power applied to his own. Yes both of them were essentially the strongest character within their respective manga series.

Yhwach actually gains more from his spiritual connections. Lucius mostly gains their grimoires with whatever spells were inside after they died. This also means Yhwach knows of a lot more abilities with plenty unknown ones. It is possible very few abilities Lucius has, Yhwach surprisingly never heard of.

This also means Yhwach other than the usual steps to regain his powers. Which does notably differ in time before he can do those processes. Everytime a quincy dies, he automatically gets boosted up. In comparison, Lucius had to do a few additional things. Like devouring the heart of the devil Lucifero whose half was in hell during that encounter.

He also had to do a process to add his siblings along with their respective devils' magic types to his own. He also shares the body of the Wizard King for majority of the story. He cheated his way to becoming the strongest magic user in the series. Yhwach's spiritual connection already given him much more plus he even take back powers while killing em as well.

Yhwach can just focus on his goal outside the process of fully regaining his powers. Lucius secretly planned to make himself into a god. Majority what we know of that he went out of his way to do. A major difference in how they do things. This is exactly what happens when you compare a ridiculous character against an even more ridiculous character.

Lucius' light speed came from Light magic. Which also could be used to directly attack an country from the air with many projectiles. It's debatable how fast Lucius could be when Light magic no longer usable. Going back to manipulating a lot of people for a moment.

Yhwach is really overwhelming for an opponent to begin with. There's no way Lucius could keep up with many situations with his paladins while facing him. Yhwach not using abilities from his people is actually a good thing. We don't truly know how ridiculous Yhwach possibly could've been.

If there was a timeline version that would use their abilities over his own The Almighty. I still could say Yhwach easily going to win this fight. A lot of quincies has some rather broken powers. Quincies actually could win against elves from Black Clover.

When I was in the process getting further into Black Clover manga series. At the time, slowly getting caught up. I kept realizing how strikingly similar The Elf Reincarnation Arc was to Thousand-Year Blood War Arc as a whole. The elves waited around five hundred years to attack the Clover Kingdom.

Which was half the time the quincies waited to attack the soul reapers in the Soul Society. This matters because Lucius also had the elves' Ultimate magic type. In his rather long list of abilities. Essentially it embodies all of the magic of it's user and creates a unique, powerful spell. Basically this particular magic type successfully combines with all other magic types Lucius has.

It's hard to believe all of this didn't make it into the actual fight prediction blog. But in a way I'm glad I could still present more information that was indirectly left out. Lucius was more evil and selfish than Yhwach as surprisingly that might be for some. Ultimately, Yhwach was this insanely well covered truly mind blowing!!!

Responding to Too Much Anime on Death Battle criticism

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I been hearing a rather silly, harsh criticism about the web show Death Battle. This could've been before they officially stated to be more into doing anime theme episodes. A lot of people are sick of them doing those episodes. To be fair, we already have a few episodes this year with anime characters.

At the same time, I actually plan to defend Death Battle on this criticism. Unlike Marvel vs DC episodes, there's so many possible angles left to go. There's plenty of characters from franchises they used before. There's also a good amount of manga/anime franchises they haven't done before. The only major thing hurting future ones is the short gap between them.

The possibilities of match ups is virtually endless. A major factor why manga series beating out comic books is their universes for the most part doesn't do multiverses often. In fact, as insane a lot of them goes kept things from getting to that point. Suddenly comparing them is more of an unique experience. There's a very large variety of abilities in manga series.

Even considering the usual powers you see in majority of them. Somehow they differ just enough to bring something amazing to these characters. When they done Bakugo vs Reze, this was virtually that in a nut shell. We were given two characters with a vastly different take on the concept of explosions. There's still plenty amazing stories that could be told through their show.

Death Battle done many anime theme episodes on the show. Vegeta was the first anime character they used on the show. This criticism felt like people didn't understand Chainsaw Man always had intentional sexual moments. I'm not going to criticize something that was always there in some form. Anyone doing so really doesn't understand what they're watching.

Sure an handful of anime franchises they love doing. I will be honest I'm getting a little sick of seeing characters from. Either Dragon Ball, My Hero Academia and Naruto respectively. Once again there's plenty other anime franchises they easily could've done!!! I'm also sure most Death Battle viewers has a huge list of anime characters they wanna see on the show.

Not too long ago, I made a list of that myself here. I really do see the potential of anime episodes. Let me put it in another yet unique way. They could do some concepts again but somehow it comes out quite differently. This by itself is exactly why I continue to support them doing anime episodes. Even if a couple I could be brutally honest coughs Liam was bias with questionable logic.

No surprise I'm still heavily disappointed about Aizen vs Madara. Especially now in Ichigo vs Yusuke, you guys finally acknowledged indirectly that also was wrong!!! They were going to do that match up way sooner. But swapped Yusuke out for Naruto for more views confirmed by the way. I'm going to call this out while I'm here.

You guys should've given us Ichigo vs Yusuke from the start. By changing it to Ichigo vs Naruto, you decided to sell out rather than give people the match up they really wanted!!! Yes I know this plays more into the Big 3 rivalry. Which also why Luffy vs Naruto a huge request I can't stand the least. To me, it just makes sense to do Ichigo vs Yusuke.

After all, the show is about putting two or more similar characters against each other. Even I felt with Death Battle wiki thank you finally made sense of Ichigo vs Naruto. I was honestly confused by the match up. I also gotta criticize once again Aang vs Edward Elric. Thankfully Aang going to lose against Traveler so it's all good now.

I'm also glad they also see how much this brings to the show. Obviously a lot of people whose into anime more willing going to watch these episodes. I don't think anime episodes is killing the show. What could seriously hurt them though is some questionable logic. I mean seriously they given the speed advantage to Bardock from a filler Goku feat wow!!!

People always going to criticize scaling. Let's be honest that's any match up they do on the show. They could do so much with anime characters. Maybe distance the usage of a few franchises could go a long way. This is also upsetting some people. More recently, we're getting another episode with an Chainsaw Man character.

Literately two episodes later that's not much of a gap guys!!! To be fair, Yuji vs Denji despite the toxicity it's bringing. Actually a rather unique match up for what it is. In a way anime episodes kept bringing this show back from many declines it had over the years. By this point, it's amazing their backs didn't break yet.

I also question how exactly do they pick their match ups? I know a large amount of the episodes were highly requested to the show. I still gotta bag the question at times. Death Battle team are huge anime fans for a long time. Honestly, it's mind blowing a lot of people don't see some of what I'm saying. In fact, a lot of them are just plain tired of seeing anime characters.

Another notable factor is they reused some of these characters. Vegeta later came back to face Thor, I loved that episode!!! Shadow came back to face Ryuko from Kill la Kill. More recently, Metal Sonic came back to face Perfect Cell. I think another factor surprisingly not a lot of people say. They don't do the most wanted match ups for some characters when they first used them.

This also resulted in some match ups people weren't as crazy for or simply not expected at all. A great example of this was Asta vs Deku. At the time, Deku's most requested opponent was Miles Morales from Marvel. Eventually Deku came back to face Miles on the show. Indirectly, some people were rubbed the wrong way by this.

I also loved they do some of these match ups in 3D animations. Personally my overall favorite style is hand drawn. Sometimes that could involve using sprites. If it's fully hand drawn I absolutely loved watching them. Suddenly I'm watching both of their shows at the same time. At least, that's how I felt about them.

Besides Goku vs Superman situation that ended up with three episodes. I know some comic book characters only face comic book characters from a rival comic book company. To be brutally honest, this gotten rather old. The well virtually dried up years ago by this point. Thanks to a weird loop hole coughs Dragon Ball fans caused.

They put Vegito vs Gogeta as a season finale episode. The only episode Goku gets used in both fusion styles. They made a wish themselves to make an impossible match up happen. Eventually it would be nice Goku faces someone who isn't Superman. The fact they're actually considering to do Composite Goku vs Composite Ryu idea.

Which would include every single version of both characters. Now that's a ridiculous amount of research on both sides. Despite not being a fan of the match up. I did respect they chosen to use alternative universe versions of Trunks and Silver the Hedgehog. This by itself was a rather unique take on the concept that goes way further than their main canon versions.

We actually need more episodes like this on the show. This really would help bring in more people to watch the show. Let's be honest, some alternate versions of characters more interesting. People wants Heaven Ascension DIO whose a rather broken version of the character. This by itself really opens the doors to some mind blowing possibilities.

I felt a lot of people are looking at the glass half empty rather than half full. Once in a blue moon, they used controversial manga/anime characters like Guts or Lucy. To be honest, this also really need to start doing this more. There's some rather interesting characters out there. Even if some stuff they done may rub people the wrong way.

Anime episodes is far from being over. They easily could put anime characters against any media character. Not only that, majority of anime characters they used are Shonen characters. They previously stated Shonen Jump characters to be the Japanese comic book equal to Marvel and DC respectively. Which brings me to a rather unique perceptive.

They should start using anime characters of other genres. Suddenly these anime episodes becomes gateways getting into those genres. Thus, both sides would ultimately gets more fans in the long run. Honestly, this also could be game changing for the web show. Other than that, I still felt they're heading into a decent direction.

Monkeybone (2001) review

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, here's one of the weirdest movies from my teen years. More recently are finding out about today's movie. Some considered it the early 2000s Beetlejuice. Which is actually saying a lot here. I'm going to review Monkeybone, easily one of the strangest movies of that era I seen.

Monkeybone (2001)

The story follows an animator whose in a coma. He gets to explore the afterlife meeting several of his creations. Among them was Monkeybone whose a recurring cartoon character in his work. For those that haven't seen the movie, it's quite a strange movie. Monkeybone came up with a plan to steal his animator's body in the real world.

They actually referenced author Stephen King!!! I liked King confirms Cujo as in the famous dog in one of his stories taken over his body. Yeah I can't imagine how ugly things went. This movie also had a difficult production including the original director fired.

According to Rose McGowan, she preferred this unique scrapped concept over what ended up happening. It sounds like the replacement director didn't know what he was doing. It often gets compared to Beetlejuice since it's also a dark comedy movie with the afterlife.

I will say Whoopi Goldberg as the Grim Reaper works way better than you think. I liked she has several extra skulls in the event the one she's using gets destroyed. We actually see the animator Stu take over a corpse to stop Monkeybone. It turns out the guy running this location Stu was at turned out to be the Grim Reaper's brother.

His creations gets to watch Stu's nightmares every night treating it like a great movie. I know saying this movie was strange following Brendan Fraser in another movie. Bedazzled is already quite puzzling indeed!!! In Bedazzled, he made a deal to get a lot of wishes from the devil.

Somehow this ended up being even weirder than that. I kinda liked the main afterlife location of the movie. Sure this also reminded me of Corpse Bride to a degree. Thankfully differs more than Beetlejuice Beetlejuice did to that movie. McGowan plays one of my favorite characters in the movie.

She plays Missy Kitty whose a cat lady that befriends Stu. Possibly among the most normal people Stu meets there. Monkeybone reminded me of Roger Rabbit from Who Framed Roger Rabbit? movie. Just not quite as rememberable that's a bit annoying. I first seen the movie as a video rental from a local library.

The same library I gotten into Ninja Scroll movie funny enough. Yes the same location I also was introduced to Bedazzled as well. Somehow memories stayed with me a long time. Monkeybone was easily the strangest movie I rented from a library. I felt some scenes works a little better when you're in the right state of mind.

It wouldn't say it's a terrible movie. It's not great by any means. Especially compared to the original Beetlejuice movie. It still had some unique looking designs as well as visuals. Both of which also sticked with me. Monkeybone may not be for everyone. It also reminds me of a particular Stephen King story, The Dark Half.

The Dark Half involved the author who wrote a successful book series. Then he decided to end the character. Somehow that character came back to life but in the real world. Which led to the confrontation prior to George's demise. I'm more familiar with the movie version myself.

Somehow Monkeybone even stranger than that!!! Keep in mind, CGI was in it's early years. The movie blends CGI with a mix of stop motion animation as well as live action thrown in. Personally I felt that somehow came together a little better than expected.

I also liked how most reapers looked in the movie. The movie ends with both Stu and Monkeybone back in the afterlife. Death forced Monkeybone back inside Stu's head. Then Stu wakes up for a happy ending. The actual ending is among the best parts of the movie.

One of the strangest early 2000 scenes that isn't necessary horror. We see this guy used to work with Stu tried out this spray Monkeybone had made. The scene suddenly turned into a 360 of a person's sanity. We find out Monkeybone promised Death's brother to give people nightmares.

Let's be honest, this plot comes off like a weird drug. They wanna get people sprayed to instantly start having nightmares for their own amusement at their expense. We even get to see an older person get sent out to come back to life. The way the movie played it off like someone just won the lottery.

Monkeybone is a movie that's always been at the back of my mind. I'm not even sure how exactly I truly feel about this movie. It wasn't full blown terrible neither it was among the greatest movies I ever seen. I would say right around the middle is this movie.

You wish several things were either done a little better or done very differently. The story could've been much more than what we actually gotten. End of the day, Monkeybone always going to be among Fraser's weirder aspects of his past. Fraser had quite a successful career since the movie.

This movie is like a much less focus Beetlejuice. To be honest, I preferred Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey. Which also was a dark comedy movie involving the afterlife. Yet I felt that movie worked amazingly well compared to this. Now that's a decade prior to Monkeybone.

Monkeybone is a movie you should see at least once. Otherwise you won't understand how tricky it is to describe the movie. I felt I already named an handful of similar movies better than it. I also felt Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is slightly better as well. I know some would prefer Monkeybone over Dudley Do-Right movie.

Yes another Fraser movie get use to it. This one was based on the classic cartoon show of the same name. Sure the movie isn't perfect but Fraser tried his best. I actually liked Alfred's performance as Snidley Whiplash in the movie. It was somewhat closer to the cartoon show than some live action adaptation movies.

Even Monkeybone was a little better than The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas. Which was released the previous year to Monkeybone. I know some reviewers didn't like the first live action Flintstones movie, I loved it!!! I rather rewatch Monkeybone than that Flintstone prequel movie!!!

Black Clover manga (2015-2026)

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, a few months ago I talked about Black Clover. Now it's finally time to review the manga series. I will be revealing some huge spoilers. If you don't want to get spoiled. I highly suggest leave now thank you. Black Clover is a good unusual magic story that works better than a lot of people thinks.

Black Clover (2015-2026)

Asta was lucky one captain took a chance on him. This was how close he didn't make the cut. Asta's story isn't about redemption or vengeance. It is more about being someone unusual in a world filled with magic users. He's used being an outcast for a long time. Eventually, the people of his country came to respect his incredible efforts.

He gets to face a good variety of opponents. Which does include elves and devils respectively. Elves' concept to a degree had to be inspired by The Sternritter who were quincies that went to war with the soul reapers. Both were previously thought to be wiped out.

Somehow found a way to survive to get revenge on them. There's a few major differences but it was somewhat similar. I felt Elves were done better in comparison. Most devils' appearances is strikingly similar to Ulquiorra's second Resurreccion. Up to a point, they were dealing with Diamond Kingdom.

Out of no where, Spade Kingdom ended up being worst. Which was ran by a family of siblings. All possessed by devils that wants to take over the world. A huge surprise is the Wizard King himself surprisingly related to them. This twist triggered the ending portions of the story.

Lucius was heavily inspired by Aizen but surprisingly Yhwach as well. Like Aizen, Lucius was a master strategist that wanted to become an god. He ends up becoming a rather broken magic user making him a more magical Yhwach. He deeply dislikes Asta for rather pathetic reasons.

Just like Yhwach, someone stepped in. Two right after each other unexpectedly. Forcing Lucius to get taken out by Asta and Yuno. Which mirrored how Ichigo took down Yhwach. Uryu fired an silver arrow into him. Ichigo's zanpakuto in bankai form instantly broke due to Yhwach's The Almighty.

Uryu then used his past powers to give Ichigo, an older variation of his zanpakuto to end him. Noelle was treated by her own family as the worst. A major twist, she was actually among the strongest. The true worst was two of her siblings. She is in a royal family that often struggles to control her magic.

I also liked every brigade is named after a different color as well as animal. I felt this was a clever idea. Some mess up situations comes up regarding Asta. Somehow he gets through despite things. He goes on missions for the Clover Kingdom. Yes it does explain many critical things about him.

Such as anti-magic he uses came from a devil known to be the weakest of his kind. He can't use magic due to his mother indirectly kept taking magic away. Just being near her that led to him growing up in the orphanage. Of course, this is where he met his foster brother Yuno.

Who he knew was going to be his greatest rival. A fact Yuno himself recently stated during the final battle against Lucius. Yuno is really set up to become the next Wizard King. He gets a famous wind grimoire that came with a powerful wind spirit. He was suppose to inherit a star grimoire from his royal bloodline.

Add in spiritually connected to the elves. Elves were so powerful that even captains weren't sure if they could win. Yet they pale in comparison to a devil that ultimately was the arc's true main antagonist. Basically Yuno has the potential to be insanely powerful in magic with a high adaptability rate.

The Black Bulls kept gotten more interesting as the story went on. As unusual they are as a group. They eventually became a family with a huge variety of abilities. I would even say among the worst brigade to mess with honestly. We got Charmy whose later revealed to be part dwarf. You could consider them the outcast brigade.

I should point out it's possible to have more than one magic type. Lucius easily cheated to have a ridiculous amount of them. We also have Henry whose like Asta's mom that sucks in magic. But he also can use magic to directly control the main Black Bulls building. Kinda like a magic mech or more directly an golem.

You also get to see people's true colors. It reminded me of X-Men franchise to a degree. You get to see how each side feels about each other. Some of those can get rather ugly at times. But it is fitting due to being an unique medieval style story. Asta went from barely anyone respects him to eventually everyone does.

Occasionally they face threats from other countries. Mostly two kingdoms over the course of the story. I do liked the main four kingdoms are based on the four suits in a standard deck of playing cards. Indirectly it reminds me of Resident Evil 2 both versions with those keys. There's plenty of light moments to help with some of it's darkest moments.

Black Clover has a few characters notably inspired by several Bleach characters. Yami is inspired by Kenpachi Zaraki whose also a captain in his story. Both also later gain the ability to cut dimensions. Leo is somewhat inspired by Grimmjow. In a sense having a cat theme having a rivalry with the main protagonist.

Grimmjow is a more of an panther arrancar character that later gets involved with the quincies. Leo's brigade so happened to be the Crimson Lions. Just like some divisions within the Thirteen Court Squad. Some of the brigades including the Crimson Lions has families as members. Noelle could be compared to Rukia funny enough.

It's a little weird since Byakuya originally was her brother in law. After her sister's death, he taken her in as a sister. One of Noelle's brothers so happens to be a captain. Both came from royalty with a similar personality. Notably differ powers with some similarities. Black Clover really pulled a lot from Bleach. At the same time, it worked amazingly well not being direct copies aka plagiarism.

You also be surprised a lot of former enemies came to help later on as well. For me, one of the biggest surprises was Yami came from another country clearly inspired by Japan. Another huge surprise was his second in command Nacht possessed by four devils!!! Although he's done a process with each devil to maintain control over em.

He might not be in much of the story. He ended up being a rather unique character. A particular member of the Black Bulls that's gotten my attention was Zora. He can be a prick at times with a rather shady fighting style. Deep down you can tell he does care despite things. He ended up being a very complex character that's difficult to read.

I also thought it's an interesting choice the main kingdom in the story being the Clover Kingdom. They clearly didn't go with the more obvious Spade concept with the Spade Kingdom. The famous Ace of Spades that's often used as a message you're dead. They also didn't do the four leaf clover thing either. Considering all the stuff that happened they needed a lot of those lol.

Four leaf clovers are meant to be good luck. I do expect a huge twist regarding the new Wizard King going to happen. I simply love they suddenly made knights awesome again!!! I personally felt the author delivered some impressive artwork. Especially during the bigger battles with so much going on. This is excluding seeing what's going on with other characters.

I can confirm the final battle is notably better than Bleach's final battle by far. You actually see three people's insane determination. But two of them were quickly evolving during the battle. Asta was temporary out the battle for a little while. He quickly went for Lucius after he's healed. It was more terrifying seeing two of them gotten to the point.

Despite all the insane advantages, Lucius was doomed to his foreseen defeat. Asta often needs help in the tougher battles. Which wouldn't be good if he were to face Ichigo on Death Battle. To be fair, he really tries his hardest to win. He trains harder than everyone else in the story. In vice versa, not having magic ended up being a great advantage over everyone else.

Majority of them so heavily depended on magic. They wouldn't know or handle an threat without magic. This is why Asta ended up being so dangerous in the long run. He is just like many Shonen protagonists that refuses to give up. He is constantly bettering himself for his dream becoming the Wizard King.

He could simply fight like normal when everyone's magic disabled. In a weird sense, Asta not having magic a rather critical advantage in combat. Lucius himself really tried to avoid making contact with him due to his anti-magic. This is what pulled me more into the story. You may have a lot of expected treads of a magic story.

At the same time, we have such an unusual main character for that style. The author ran with the concept in a way most of the readers couldn't imagined!!! It's safe to say Black Clover became a huge inspiration to me. Despite how recently I gotten into the manga series myself. When it gets epic it really doesn't help back.

This really was like Bleach done differently. More so than Jujutsu Kaisen that changed some aspects. I felt Bleach changed more from Yu Yu Hakusho in comparison. It's very difficult to do this review not constantly bring up Bleach because so many similarities. Black Clover started a year before Bleach manga ended the following year.

In a way you could say Tite Kubo handed Yuki Tabata the torch. Spiritually with the afterlife is part of the concept. Therefore, I officially can say that. Black Clover is more recently a story people criticized for some of the wrong reasons. There's some signs the story gotten rushed. To me, it didn't come off like later portions of several Shonen manga series.

It actually didn't negatively affected me surprisingly. Maybe I saw what most of them couldn't see. What I see is a story that despite it's flaws could be considered a gem or a surprise master piece. I know some of them would quickly discard it. Personally this is my blog they can go to hell for all I care lol. I also believe just like Bleach, Black Clover can't be copied or recreated.

You can take many homages just don't steal em coughs Jujutsu Kaisen. Black Clover took many things I loved about Bleach. Then changed them to somehow make em rather refreshing. I strongly felt this story deserves more credit than it's getting. Then again I dislike marathon readers that are too quick to judge before any arcs are finished.

To me, you aren't properly slowing down to read it. You simply wanna rush through chapters to call it a day. Which is rather disrespectful to any manga author you're doing this to. Not only that, a lot of them risk many health problems to make these chapters. Just saying be a little more considerate of that. Black Clover wasn't meant to be rushed reading to begin with.

Especially with a lot of it's very complex concepts. I highly doubt anyone of them understands half what's going in in that arc. I don't mean to get so personal about it. Just gets right under my skin especially towards the big names in the industry. Black Clover probably be a more fun time to slowly read the chapters.

I confess I quickly gotten caught up to the manga. I also took many breaks to read the chapters. Just well enough to understand majority what had happened in the story. I went out of my way to give more proper respect to the author by doing this review. I would be interested reading more of his works. Black Clover is a special one for me.

I do predict Asta going to marry Noelle in the ending. Yuno likely going to become King of the Spade Kingdom. Three of the card suite kingdoms allied together for a better future. Just curious to see who the next Wizard King going to be? A few other relationships including two captains going to happen. Black Clover somehow made magic a truly unique concept.

I also hope the author plans to write another manga series soon. Even if it's a follow up to Black Clover. Assuming it could be just that I wanna see more unique stuff than Jujutsu Kaisen: Modulo. The devils stay away from the humans following Lucius' defeat. The only uncertain aspect is the Diamond Kingdom.

I do think more countries going to come together following everything. I actually see a rather beautiful ending. A surprisingly satisfying one at that. Asta was an amazing protagonist with that concept. I really couldn't ask more of the author at this point. Black Clover really earned my respect, I absolutely loved this story.

My thoughts on the final three chapters

There's a few time skips within these chapters. Half a year is the first of them following Lucius' defeat. The country couldn't decide who should be the next Wizard King between Asta and Yuno. I was already surprised Yuno didn't get force becoming the king of the Spade Kingdom. Thankfully that gets brought up later on to clear up some confusion.

It was decided have the two rivals face off for that position. Most of two chapters worth of combat between them. Already one of the most exciting rivalry battles I ever seen in any manga series. In the end, Asta pushed a little further to earn that position. For me it was the obvious outcome. Yuno virtually played on very easy mode while Asta automatically set to the hardest difficulty a major difference.

Inevitably Asta was going to push himself harder. Yuno who relied heavily on his two powerful magic types lacked such determination. I am quite happy Asta gets his dream with everything that happens. They allowed someone this unexpected to become the next Wizard King. In a good way, his journey been a rather difficult one.

This duel goes full circle to that promise earlier in the series. One of them would become the next Wizard King. A good amount of what followed confirmed a lot of couples. To be honest, most of them weren't a surprise. The author left whose going to become Asta's wife in the air since that's going to be a duel.

Assuming if the author does an epilogue we may know who wins that duel. There's even a chance it won't happen because of Asta himself stepping in. I felt these final three chapters were well written. I already know some going to be disappointed, difficult to imagine why though. Considering the rivalry with My Hero Academia, Asta out done Deku.

Let's say the author fully does this duel to be Asta's wife. I felt Noelle should easily win that duel. Her cousin Mimosa is a powerful healer more meant as support to help prolong battles as well as saving a country. Yes her magic range can affect the entire Clover Kingdom.

Noelle has a powerful water spirit with insane magic control. She has plenty of techniques for combat. I also could argue her greatest offense going to really force Mimosa to go through magic faster. Her greatest defense simply prolongs the duel. Suddenly trying into whose magic going to run out first?

Also Noelle was much closer to Asta since they used to be in the same brigade together. Both helped Asta during the final battle in different ways. I wouldn't be surprise Asta decides to watch the duel himself. Of course if Noelle wins he expected it.

Deep down these two are perfect for each other. Now Asta being the Wizard King counts as royalty in their country making their upcoming wedding. A rather huge royalty wedding the entire country going to attend. Also he prefers a lady whose more of an actual warrior.

Let's be honest, two warriors that deeply cares for their country it just makes sense. Their bond is a truly special one. She wouldn't gotten far without him. In a way that's also true in vice versa. They always meant so much to each other. I really can't imagine a woman more perfect to be the Wizard King's wife.

Asta broke a few records while becoming the next Wizard King. He's now the youngest to earn the position in his country's history. He's also the first Wizard King to be possessed by a devil. He's also the first Wizard King despite the usual reputation of strongest magic user lacks magic altogether. I still think he's a worthy choice to be the Wizard King.

The country acknowledge Asta was the right successor to follow in previous Wizard Kings' footsteps. During the final battle, the people really wanted Asta to get back to the fight to win badly!!! Yuno didn't get that kind of reaction from the people. I also felt his efforts were more impressive in the long run. Honestly, I could not be possibly happier for him.

He went from the bottom all the way to the top. He worked harder than anyone in the country to get done tasks. I'm going to feel the same when Luffy becomes the next Pirate King in One Piece. Asta went from such ugliness from people to become such a beloved mage knight in his country. He kept improving remaining a decent person despite many things that happened is a true testament.

A legacy that's already quite huge to fill. A person majority of the country never thought become the Wizard King. Sometimes it's the underdogs that does the impossible. Asta truly deserved to become the next Wizard King. I would've been deeply disappointed if Yuno won that duel. I still wouldn't say that would ruin the story for me.

Anyone within any brigade has a shot at becoming the next Wizard King. Whose position matches the King of the country in power. Usually anyone who had the position had a rather impressive list of achievements. I do believe Asta truly belongs in there. I really felt Asta was the perfect choice to become the next Wizard King.

The last skip being two years later quickly showing a lot of characters end up with their own happy endings. A lot of couples I knew were going to be together for a good while. Honestly, this has to be one of the finest final chapters I seen in a long time. The closest thing I would want is slightly more Wizard King Asta in action that's it.

Still would've led to a better ending than Jujutsu Kaisen. Not only that, Asta ended up being such a well written protagonist. Honestly, I just wanted more following these chapters. It would be nice if we eventually get to see Wizard King Asta in a fight. I would love to come back to see that. Regardless, the author putting in extra time for a lot of later chapters ultimately paid off.

It's a surprisingly peaceful ending with a few criminals ran into Wizard King Asta. Who gets disrespected like earlier portions of the story. Asta never backs down from a fight. Honestly, this entire ending is among the best I seen in a long time. I wouldn't even change a single thing. I am just sad Black Clover ended!!!

My response to a particular Black Clover hot take

It's a shame during it's run in Shonen Jump. The author gotten rushed notably hurt the manga series' reputation. I felt since his transfer, his newer chapters been decent for the most part. Black Clover helped gotten me more interested in magic. I recently found out about the famous Black Clover hot take.

"Black Clover is just Naruto but with magic."

I felt Black Clover heavily differs from Naruto. As stated before, Black Clover more like Bleach. Asta earned becoming the Wizard King. Especially when I started to think of other possibilities that wouldn't upset or disappoint people as much. Thank god, it wasn't simply given the position as the previous leader steps down coughs Naruto.

Naruto's mom had Kurama before his dad sealed the beast inside Naruto who was a baby at the time. Kurama was the strongest of the nine tailed beasts. In comparison, Asta lacked magic because of his mother was a magic vacuum cleaner. Which also made him a perfect fit for using anti-magic through a devil.

The devil himself was classified as the weakest of his kind. Yet both worked together to defeat many powerful devils. The huge difference is Asta's insane determination led to him becoming the next Wizard King. He was the one that got things done within his story. It's also true most powerful threats he needed help to defeat especially Lucius.

Both were treated like outcast within their species. Liebe's hatred for his own kind ended up creating anti-magic. Like Asta, both had zero magic that were quickly written off. Anti-magic eventually became critical for his country to survive. These two held their own against powerful enemies. Along with Naruto ended up growing up without their parents.

Asta even had a particular situation because people feared devils tried to set him up at court. This never happened to Naruto at all!!! Asta also done a ritual to gain full control over the devil with a contract. It was a rather light contract than expected but fitting of his character. I know late into Naruto manga, Naruto gets that kind of control with Kurama.

Asta couldn't use magic while Naruto easily could do chakra techniques a massive difference. Asta had to work even harder to achieve his dream. Therefore, I have more respect for Asta as a whole for a protagonist. Here's my own hot take, Black Clover manga was way better than Naruto manga!!! I felt Naruto had a bigger decline in comparison despite it's bigger popularity.
