Wouldn't it be hilarious if sun wukong in another iteration was one of Zeus's offspring, but occurred in another part of the world, in which he encountered the gods of that realm. That'd be wild.
Zeus really just should change his Title to the 'God of One Night Stand with many unwilling partners' That Guy is just a Creep, no wonder he can't get a healthy relationship.
They didn't mention how broken Wukong's shapshifting is. If by some miracle Heracles was stronger, Wukong can shapshift into a version of himself that's stronger than his opponent. His only limitation is shifting into the Buddha himself.
And the 'becoming a stronger version of himself' is similarly bullshit. He's powerful enough without making blatant nonsense to overinflate his capabilities. 'Only the buddha', no. Wukong has faced several problems and enemies in the book that he couldn't deal with without outside assistance and divine intervention.
@@jonathangoodwin5609 i should point out that before being sealed under the mountain by the buddha, wukong was capable of fighting all of heaven, earth and the underworld by himself, and the bull demon king, a major antagonist in later chapters, was so terrified by the power wukong released, while celebrating his first immortality, that he immediately surrendered and swore loyalty to him after the mountain, he was tricked into wearing a golden headband that prevents him from either disobeying tripitaka or doing any unsavory actions, i.e not allowed to do most of his bullshit as it is considered to brutal and against the teachings of buddhism, which is then removed after he attained buddhahood. so for most of his "defeats" it was because he was physically not allowed to use his best stuff, there are other explanations by scholars such as malnutrition or holding back, but most follow the "use of deadly/ unbuddhist actions denied by headband"
same, also they didn't say it in this death battle but weapons can't really hurt Wukong plus he has alot of immortalities from the pills he ate when he went to heaven
@@Junweitrustnobody1403 yeah no definitely The it's like a Goku (dbz) becoming immortalized in all of asian culture as a mythological figure That's bad ass
When sun wukong was born he already had enough cosmic power to make the heavens afraid,then he went on to gain many skills and immortality versions before earning Buddhahood, he's like several divinities stacked on top of each other
Best part is, this could genuinely be a chapter of "Journey To The West". Things get so crazy that Sun running into Hercules while looking for food is a Tuesday morning.
If you guys are interested after seeing this, I highly recommend LEGO Monkie Kid! It's a tv series and LEGO line based on the Journey to the West characters and it's amazing! Sun Wukong, voiced by Goku's English VA, picks a noodle delivery oy called MK to be his successor. If you have any doubt about how amazing this series is, let me put it this way: In season 3, Son Goku fights Ichigo Kurosaki!
It looks interesting but if you want probably the most accurate retelling of Journey to the West without reading the book try Journey to the West 1986. It's a TV series that can be watched on RUclips, though it has small subtitles. I can tell you the other media's of Sun Wukong that were used in the video, except the CGI one, I've been looking around.
@@knightofarkronia9968 Even if they're not into it, that's no reason to not watch it, they've reacted to Death Battles before where they didn’t know the fighters, they learn about them in the analysis part and then watch the kickass animation, and Sauron vs Lich King has a pretty awesome animation. Also, I am pretty sure they haven't watched James Bond vs John Wick.
Yes!!! Finally!!! Still waiting for the reaction vids for other missing DeathBattle episodes here: namely Excalibur Vs Raiden, James Bond Vs John Wick, and Sauron Vs The Lich King. Are they coming? If they not coming for some reason like copyright, then please let people like me who keep asking for them week after week that you can't for that reason. And, yes, I will keep reposting this until I get an answer or more DB vids come
5:15 Believe it or not, that's actually one of Heracles' sweeter moments; showing he was a serious Bro. Ok, so the story goes that King Admetus was supposed to die, and Queen Alcestis gave her life to the god Thanatos (Quiet Death) in exchange for him to live. When Heracles heard Admets say that she was dead, he went, "OH HADES NO!" And beat the crap out of Thanatos. Some versions say that he marched down to Tartarus and confronted Hades, Lord of the Underworld and his uncle; saying "Give this woman's soul back ASAP." Hades, a stickler for the rules, said, "Give me one good reason why I should break the rules of death for one mortal." Heracles, a stubborn man with a good heart, told Hades the love story between Admetus and Alcestis. And Hades, the stoic stone faced God that doesn't even smile, began to *CRY* because the story was THAT beautiful; saying "Alright. Take her back, quickly." This bring one of the very few times Hades has cried. Yeah, no caveats, no qualifiers, she could just go home. And he reunited these two crazy royals and those two lived happily ever after until they passed at the same time, and Heracles went off to more Pulpy adventures. Not as wacky as when he fought Antaeus and discovered a tribe of Pygmies that were so small that the full tribe could fit in his pockets, but I find the story rather sweet.
@Danny-tf3fd Trust me, mythology outside Europe gets even wierder. Like, ever heard of the time a Japamese goddess of food was killed by Tsukiyomi because she (semi-literally) pulled a feast out of her ass? Or what the Pharoah does in the river Nile to honor the gods? Or what about that whole thing in Aztec myth where the earth is a still.barely living creature that wants to eat us?
Well they didn't want to compare the religious elements of it and just tried to stick to the stories. People still follow buddhism to this day so it might of been disrespectful.
Probably because 1:that wouldn't make for an interesting fight and 2:we have no feats for Buddha Wukong, and also I'm fairly certain the story never explicitly states that he ascended to the same level as the Buddha, just that be was given the 'buddha' thing as a title. Whether being given a title grants his the same abilities as the actual Buddha is unclear and irrelevant for the purposes of the fight.
@@KEEPTALKIN8215 Considering he's not really a religious figure since he comes from a social parody novel though? I know there's one reactor who's Buddhist and considers it disrespectful but in China and India and a lot of other places from the actual story, Wukong is pop culture and treated more fictional than religious.
just want to add the fact that wukong alone erases the dragon ball verse by breathing he also achieved nirvana and beat the buddah so he is essentially unbeatable.
@@justchillingdude I wouldn’t say that. Because both have multiple boundless level characters and it would be stupid to try and argue which or who beats who when they are boundless.
Death battle didnt mention that wukong 72 earthly transformation doesnt mean he can only transform into 72 things its how many lives he has meaning you have to kill him 72 times to actually kill him and wukong has like over 100 immortality layers so hurceles had no way of winning this at all
The whole holding the sky thing never made sense to me, even trying to think of it fantastically. If the weight of all of space can be felt on earth, then earth has to be the center of the universe. It also has to be the strongest object in the universe to not be destroyed. Why then is the man the one who gets the glory 😅
The difference is Atlas was forced to hold the heavens as punishment for being on Kronos’ side during the war between the Olympians and the Titans, while Heracles chose to bear the burden so Atlas could retrieve the Golden Apples.
Hercules is but a man. He still bleeds. Other than a special type of fire, and apparently some poison I never heard of before, I don't know if I've ever seen Wukong bleed, or even get hurt other than fighting his evil twin.
am i missing a reaction you did or did you just not do sauron vs lich king? its fine if you don't wanna but i do recommend it even if you don't know the characters
yea...they forgot to mention the 72 transformations key power, to truly kill wukong you need to kill him 72 times, and each time he dies he gets stronger
This is late to tell you, but in their Goro VS Machamp reaction, they stated that they did reacted to Grey VS Esdeath, but unfortunately the reasoning why that reaction didn't show up was because it got blocked before it was uploaded.
Can we all agree "Great Sage equal to Heaven" is the coldest title ever?
That shit goes hard
Lucifer: I call bullshit.
Hades: Wrong Heaven du-
Lucifer: DO I LOOK LIKE I CARE!!??
I want it on my tombstone.
Definitely up there, but I like one of Hade's nicknames better. "He Who Recieves Many Guests."
I like the other depictions of him being called the Heavenly Demon. Shits so fire 🔥
"Father of 51 children"

same, also they didn't say it in this death battle but weapons can't really hurt Wukong plus he has alot of immortalities from the pills he ate when he went to heaven

Sun Wukong is literally the OG of several OP Shounen characters, so to answer that question, yes he will destroy Goku
He the reason Goku existed too 💀
Not just Goku, also Superman.
Best part is, this could genuinely be a chapter of "Journey To The West". Things get so crazy that Sun running into Hercules while looking for food is a Tuesday morning.

There are three Death Battles (from season 9) that you haven't done yet.
Excalibur vs Raiden
James Bond vs John Wick
Sauron vs Lich King
I thought they already did James Bond vs John Wick? And I believe they said that they weren’t into Lord of the Rings or World of Warcraft.

Don't forget Saberwolf vs Jon Talbain and The Seven Battle Royale from season 7.
For those who aren't already aware, this year's season of Death Battle is starting up in late May, and the premier will be Ant Man Vs Atom.
*I heard you like immortality! So, I put immortality on immortality on immortality!*
Can he beat Goku !? “Maybe” me: MAYBE!? 😂😂
