Mukyu, i suppose,
Hey everyone! commissioner here.
First of all i want too thank Brandon for making this awesome track. i love this MU and Brandon has outdone himself yet again.
Second i want too thank Redrunner613 for the mindboggling track art. considering what happens in RE:Zero and the gag in Touhou. i absolutely adore it
I've never watched re zero, so what's the funny asthma librarian going up against here?
@@im_endzo Beatrice, a 400 spirit that is the caretaker of the Roswaals library. there is a lot more, but i dont want to go too deep into spoilers. i recommend you watch it, because is really good
aight then👍
The Scarlet Devil Mansion going up in flames/exploding has become such a widespread Touhou troupe that it somehow made it into one of Brandon's album covers
What's funny is that it's a reference to both of them in that way, Beatrice's library / mansion going up in flames is one of her most impactful scenes.
Nice how those things work out sometimes!
Beatrice Fucking Dies: The Game, the show, the movie adaptation
The Musical.
Hate how they adapted the Game into a movie. The Beatrice Fucking Dies novels are better.
While I'd say Patchouli wins, Either way, the mansion is blowing up.
Oh she absolutely does. It’s not even close lol
This means it's canon
Love how the art slowly burns overtime, easily the best part lol
besides the awesome track itself
What does it reference BTW?
@@Annihilate0405 The burning?
References both the ending of Re:Zero Season 2, where the Roswaal Mansion burns down, and you get a touching scene in Beatrice's burning library, and also the Scarlet Devil Mansion always getting blown up or burnt down.
@@Redrunner613Remember when Lunarians tried to nuke it?
Fighting a Touhou Character, is instant death.
Well except if you has some powerful hax… or just be a DC/Marvel character…
Does that make fighting Kirby death in negative millenia?
@@Aaa-vp6ugIronically no, because of the stupidest little thing.
Kirby, the Mr. Dreamland himself, Slayer of Eldritch Nightmares, and all that jazz. Kirby, who is commonly associated with sleep, loses his most popular(as far as I’m aware) matchup against a Touhou character.
It’s Doremy, the Youkai and Ruler of Dreams, with the ability to create and manipulate dreams, who can put people to sleep.
*Kirby, KIRBY of all creatures, has no resistance to either SLEEP or DREAM manipulation. Kirby can mind control others, it can warp morality, but Kirby has negative(its one sleep-relating ability is to put itself to sleep) resistance to ability to put it to regular sleep.*
Doremy can just incap Kirby by putting Kirby to sleep for the rest of eternity. Literally.
It’s the funniest thing. The Eldritch God-killing Pink Puffball can’t deal with sleep manipulators.
@@actuallyreallybored3552I love that, too. The Baku takes the win in every scenario in a fight against the kirbo
Edit:
Beatrice: These books are remarkable. I suppose I might keep em. But I think a librarian like isn't strong to defeat me.
Patchouli: *sigh* Koakuma. Leave this to me... It's time I kill this Youkai...
Koakuma: Yes Master.
Beatrice: Idk what a Youkai is but I hope you entertain me very well~
Patchouli: Hmph.
*FIGHT*
You forgot to add “I suppose” at the end of Beatrice’s lines
@@ColossalKing25Yeah Sorry
@@malik_splandhis4girls384 i suppose ;)
@@malik_splandhis4girls384 It’s all right. We all tend to forget how the characters work. Or their catchphrases 😂
Sometimes I feel Brandon puts special care to Re:Zero commissions…
…AND I LOVE IT!
Huh that effect with the art burning over time combined with the track makes me think the fight is under a time limit before both combatants are consumed by the flames.
Well, it's more the time before the Scarlet Devil Mansion blows up. Because you know what they say about Touhou fanworks and the SDM.
this is less of a battle and more of a test to see who has worse asthma lmao
Banger tune, but uh
RIP Beatrice lmao
I almost read the title as Beatrice from Umineko.
Well you not only one here.
i saw the first half of the title and had a mini heart attack at the idea of umineko vs touhou
Same
Always a great day when Touhou gets a commisioned track. Whoever did, you are a God! I didn't even think of Beatrice for Patchouli, but makes absolutely sense!
Re:Zero VS Touhou? The scaling for this must be crazy, huh?
Nah. The Touhou character just wins.
It’s nice to see more Touhou stuff here
Ideas:
Magica Project (Madoka Kaname Vs Reimu Hakurei) [Madoka Magica 🆚 Touhou]
Curse of Ice (Emilia Vs Elsa) [Re: Zero 🆚 Frozen]
Assembled Robots (Megazord Vs Devastator) [Power Rangers 🆚 Transformers]
Infinite Pain (Obito Uchiha Vs Infinite) [Naruto 🆚 Sonic]
Queen of Shapeshifters (Queen Chrysalis Vs The Chameleon) [My Little Pony 🆚 Kung Fu Panda]
Another Re:Zero track ? And featuring one of my favorite Re:Zero characters too ? Well, it's quite a good premise *I suppose.*
Also, don't think I didn't notice that "Bad Apple" written on the book or the progressive track art with the library burning more as the song progresses (well, I say library but apparently it's also a trope on the Touhou side of things so that's even better). That's such a great idea, I absolutely love it and it gives even more personality to the track than it already has. Wonder what other matchup could have a track art dynamic that works similarly.
And speaking of which, honestly what more is there to say about Brandon and Re:Zero tracks than what's been said in the past really ? The guy manages to make a massively standout song that feels fitting and familiar with the other songs while also being absolutely insane in terms of quality without a single miss and all that while also featuring the other franchise really well. Makes most of what I say about the Re:Zero commissions redundant given they almost always the same general quality; that being "absolutely freaking amazing".
Still, it would be doing a disservice to such a good song not to at least comment on it a bit. And even here it's hard to know where to start or what to mention because of how good the song is. So I guess I'll start with a slightly general overview. And of course the first thing to notice while listening to the song is how well the mix of Re:Zero and Touhou is done here. I mean, honestly it doesn't quite feel like Re:Zero track nor a Touhou to the fullest extent *but* it feels like a mix of both very well. It isn't just both genres put in select segments that follow one another but it instead feels like a dedicated crossover-like track where neither franchise is fully showcased in the song but instead they make a separate type of music inspired by both franchises and I really like that as it makes the song feel extremely unique as it features the emotional intensity and electronic side of Re:Zero with the sheer speed, power and catchy melodic feel of Touhou (altho I say that but honestly both are interchangable given the themes of both characters feature all sides of the equation to a certain extent).
And that's something that goes for a lot of the song's traits: not only is the general atmosphere of the song a true mix of both franchises but even the melodies, instruments, etc... are too. Something that makes the song feel even more unique and standout than it already is.
But to me the true highlight of the song would be the various melodies heard throughout its duration. There's too many to note them all but the entire track has a ton of extremely memorable melodies that all flow from one another fluidly at a pace that results in every one of them being present just long enough to appreciate them without overstaying their welcome before switching to another or increasing in intensity to make the song as a whole get an up in scale that works well. Of course there's melodies that come back throughout the track but given they, as said earlier, have various shifts in intensity and come back at various points it results in them not feeling redundant or present for too long which I think fits really well.
And speaking of great melodies/segments, this of course brings me to talk about the final one in the song (I know, I'm rushing a bit through the song but as I said at the start much of what I could say for this one applies to all or almost all of Brandon's Re:Zero songs so it'd be redundant to say them) starting at 3:38-3:49. Now you might say "but this isn't the ending what are you saying have you gone insane ?" well maybe I have but not on this note. What I mean here is that the ending melody is first heard in that segment and I find that really cool because the way it's implemented and transitions in the track is really well done in my opinion.
It still has the melodic feel of the other segments of the song but here it feels much more brutal and intense, like the characters fully resolving themselves to end the battle. But before the battle can actually reach its ending the song breaks at 3:49, as if the characters aren't quite ready to throw themselves into this final bout. Now I have no idea if it fits the Touhou character but as far as Beatrice is concerned I think it fits wonderfully given acceptance of change is a major theme for her and this ending represents it perfectly.
And that's why I find the break before the song's climax to be even better as it reflects this acceptance: it starts almost melancholic and sad but then slowly shifts into something more hopeful and determined that slowly increases in intensity, representing the determination and resolution of those two before it finally follows suit into the track's ending at 4:35. And damn that ending is good. I mean, we get a "teaser" of it in the 3:38-3:49 but here with the buildup it receives it feels all the more powerful even if it's the exact same as in the aforementioned segment which makes it even better. Maybe it could have been slightly longer or have a keyshift midway through to feel even more powerful but honestly I think it's already extremely satisfactory as it is right now, especially followed by the calm ending that lets the scale of the song go down peacefully. It's a really good ending to an already great track that reflects (at least one of) the characters really well in my opinion so I couldn't ask for a better one for sure.
Overall this song is about as one would expect: absolutely great. It sounds unique, feels like an actual crossover song and is full of personality in the best of ways. Honestly the only "issue" with it is that Brandon's Re:Zero tracks are all so good that it's hard to differentiate them in terms of quality to choose which is better. Truly masterful composer issues, I know: so many great songs that I can't choose which is best. But either way, it doesn't change anything to the fact that this song's great. I mean, I barely know anything about Touhou and I'm so rusted on Re:Zero that I forgot what happens in half of the series and forgot that some characters from it outright existed so I couldn't go too much into detail about the character side of the song but even then I still think the song's amazing so I have no doubt someone more up to date on both franchises will like it even more than I already do. Still, amazing job with this as always for sure.
A lot of re zero matchups lately but who am I to complain? These sound great.
It's my favorite anime for sure, with Mushoku Tensei at 2nd place. Around the time I took this on I think I said I'd favor any Re:Zero matchups that were sent in lol
Death Battle: Deceptive Revolution (From RoosterTeeth Series) [Magneto VS. Megatron] (Marvel VS. Transformers)
Forbidden Knowledge
RWBY VS My Little Pony
Blake Belladonna VS Twilight Sparkle
I hope one day Death Battle does Sephiroth vs Kefka just so Brandon Yates can give us the greatest single of all time
Love the fiery transition!
In my mind I just imagine Beatrice being as cocky as can be at first especially given she thinks she’s putting up a good fight against Patchouli, only to get steamrolled by the end. Something like Sailor Galaxia Vs Beerus only more embarrassing for Beatrice XD
I can already see that the finisher would probably be Sun Sign "Royal Flare" (Because let's be real, that's the one most likely to blow up the Scarlet Devil Mansion, and we all know Beatrice ain't winning this.)
Library shut-ins have a bad habit of not going outside to do some exercise and not having their domain set ablaze/explode
I saw the name "Beatrice" and instantly thought it'll be Beato from Umineko 😐
Also neat reference to SDM exploding.
I think Patchouli take this one. So, Patchouli FTW!

Nice ideas
all great idea's but my boi hercule getting done dirty though.
@@aronsmith3417 Keep in mind, my knowledge of Project Touhou isn't perfect, so correct me if I'm wrong, but...
The characters all fight evenly because of the Spell Card Rules. They basically agreed on a set level for everyone to fight evenly in order to solve any disputes. This basically means power scaling gets thrown out the window for all in-game battles, and you'd need to look at official lore to get their actual power feats.
I don't know exactly how strong Cirno is, but the average fairy is so weak that any normal human can handle them. Match that with her absolute stupidity, Hercule being a bit more than an average human, and him being the only person to fight both Buu and Cell and _not_ die, and it might not be so one-sided after all.
@@AuraSilverHero it's fine man, you likely know more than i do. I just said he was getting done dirty cause the buu and cell things aside, this man really just gets cooked.
@@AuraSilverHero Cirno is an outlier among fairies, and one of the few that is actually considered a threat (albeit a low one). Her article in Perfect Memento in Strict Sense emphasizes that the is stronger than most fairies, and her countermeasures are about avoiding confrontation or using her stupidity to distract her, rather than trying to fight or catch her. While it tired her out, she also created a pretty big hill of ice in the Three Fairies of Light manga.
What's more of a problem for Hercule is that, as a fairy, she is immortal. He can't win unless he somehow destroys the concept of cold, which I don't see him doing, or if she becomes too powerful and looses her connection to nature, which would also be bad for him.
Sometimes knowledge has to be forbidden but this battle is catchy to be hearing
Hoping for a Re:Zero matchup that is Reinhard von Astrea vs Medaka Kurokami
This is a great track, I suppose
One of my recent favorites, in fact.
Fits perfectly with this track
3:49 Now this part just *HITS DIFFERENTLY*
😭✋️👌
Gambit 🆚. The Riddler
Sagat 🆚. Ozymandias
Now we need a track for the Bowel Hunter, Elsa! Maybe against Lust from Full Metal Alchemists?
Hey, that's a pretty good pairing. FMA and Re:Zero are actually pretty comparable universes overall I think
LET'S GO PATCHY!!!!!

So this is like...
Emilia's librarian vs Remilia's librarian?
I still have another MU idea for Patchy
Yooo this is a GREAT track. Always happy to see new Re:Zero matchups. I assume that for this battle we are using peak Beatrice before she made the contract with Subaru, meaning she's got access to Al Shamak.
Probably, but it wouldn't matter because Touhou.
Oh shit Beatrice gets a track and its against Patchouli from Touhou?! Yoooooo. I am expecting this to be a big banger knowing both series. The start sounds super intense but freaking magical. This definitely is playlist worthy for sure
Funky Track, very catchy 👍
Starlight (Rosalina vs Princess Celestia) [Mario vs My Little Pony]
Do you have any other Rosalina match ups?
Let's go Touhou after so long.

DON'T HURT EM NOW BRANDON!
Fantastic track.

who win
Don’t know much about Re: Zero, but lowball touhou is uni and MFTL. High ball I’ve seen some outer arguments, but high multi is generally where most lie and infinite speed. Also you need conceptual erasure to keep any yokai down for good in touhou. Patchouli is both a yokai and scales to some high tier characters (Remillia+Sakuya) but lacks the stamina to be one.
@@stephenq7510THANKS
It's 100% Patchouli from Touhou wins probably.
