Description[]
Adventure Time vs. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Two dogs with paranormal shape-changing abilities battle to prove who is the top dog.
Introduction[]
Wiz: Dogs are a man's best friend and the one's with powers are the best at being these.
Boomstick: Or sometimes not, considering they can get up to all sorts of shenanigans.
Wiz: Like Jake, the stretchable dog from Adventure Time.
Boomstick: And Iggy, the wielder of the Fool from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze our weapons, armor and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle.
Jake the Dog[]
Wiz: Come on grab your friends, we're going to very distant lands.
Boomstick: With Jake the Dog and Finn the Human, the fun will never end, it's Adventure Time. Wait...dang it! Why can't I stop myself from singing the openings to things?
Wiz: Because they're catchy. Plus in this case, it serves a purpose of introducing our first combatant.
Boomstick: Finn the Human?
Wiz: No, he already fought Scott Pilgrim. The one I'm talking about is his adopted brother and best friend, Jake the Dog.
- Background
- Age: 34
- Height: Est. 3’
- Breed: English Bulldog
- Adoptive brother of Finn
- Gets pickles from an inter-dimensional genie
- Sired the future dominant race of Ooo
Boomstick: Adopted brother? Oh, I get it, Finn's parents decided to get a dog first before having kids, as a practice run.
Wiz: No, it was Jake's biological parents that adopted Finn. They were sentient dogs.
Boomstick: Whoa, the Land of Ooo is frigging weird. Fortunately, Jake is apparently just as weird. You know, aside from the whole talking thing.
Wiz: Before Jake was ever born, his father, Joshua, was bitten by an intergalactic shape-shifter. This had the effect of implanting a boil on his head that got bigger and bigger and bigger...
Boomstick: Until it popped wide open, revealing the baby Jake. It was both gross and beautiful, so it was like all childbirth.
Wiz: Thanks to his alien genetics, Jake inherited its ability to stretch his limbs and body in any way he wants to.
- Powers and Abilities
- Superhuman strength
- Superhuman speed
- Stretching
- Shape-shifting
- Size changing
- Weapon morphing
- Accelerated healing
- Alien form
Boomstick: He can extend his arms, legs and body over long distances, turn them into weapons or items such as Key Hand and even completely extend his mass for all manner of purposes.
Wiz: He has been able to stretch himself into the shape of a spaceship and its exhaust and into the forms of other animals. Jake has claimed that he is able to alter his body's form to the thinness of paper has has even grow to the size of a mountain top, which serves to increase his already incredible levels of strength.
Popup: Jake has a sword in his possession, but has never used it.
Boomstick: Oh, and he's also rather fast as well, which is always worth mentioning. And and a dog, Jake has a keen sense of smell and is rather good at tracking, at least when he doesn't get distracted by water nymphs and wrongly-dancing bugs.
Wiz: Jake was already pretty much blessed with his versatile and near unlimited stretching ability, but he ended up getting even more when his alien parent brought him to his planet.
Boomstick: Whilst there, his pops helped him to fully understand the full abilities of his stretching powers and then some. Aside from turning deep blue, Jake's alien form lets him fly, grow spikes and even taste the emotions of toast.
Wiz: Specifically the wheat, which is impossible since plants cannot produce emotional hormones. Honestly, my Scientist-Inaccuracy sense is off the charts here.
Boomstick: Anyway, Jake's alien dad must have been a pretty cool guy to teach Jake more about his powers. Only, he wasn't, which was kind of a staple for the series, as he tried to steal Jake's powers to extend his life.
Wiz: Jake got even though, by which we mean he threw him straight into a black hole.
- Feats
- Survived being struck by lightning
- Dodged a laser beam
- Regenerated holes in his body
- Ten times stronger than Finn
- Hurled Warren into a black hole
- Stole the Baker’s Shard
- Defeated Dave the Mermaid, Marceline, Warren
Boomstick: As notable as that feat is, it's far from Jake's only one. He's tangled with and tangled up giant monsters.
Wiz: He's also rather capable of taking a hit as well. Nevermind he's been able to regenerate massive holes in his own body but he's also taken a lightning bolt directly to the head. A lightning bolt's usual power output is about 5 billion joules of power. That's worth 1.2 tons of TNT.
Popup: Jake once showed he could alter reality with his thoughts, but has never showed this ability again, or at the very least is restraining himself from using it.
Boomstick: He's also very fast is spite of his slight pudginess, once dodging a laser beam from a maddened crystal elephant.
Wiz: By calculating the length of the angle of the elephant's laser beam and the time-frame Jake took to jump, then he would have been reacting at nearly half the speed of light. He's claimed himself to be far stronger than Finn, who once shattered a giant ruby is a single strike and the two of them have even fought each other to a standstill.
Boomstick: Jake got their on account of his strength and powers, whilst Finn got there with his fighting prowess, which is how we get to Jake's general flaws.
Wiz: Namely that he's way to reliant on his powers to see him through most things. One time when he ended up losing them to a witch, he got so lazy even thinking became utterly draining.
Boomstick: Rather pathetic if you ask me.
Wiz: Well, you're one to talk, but Jake has still proven himself to be as much a defender of Ooo as Finn.
Iggy[]
Wiz: During their quest to defeat their family's ancient vampire enemy, and the internet's king of memes, Dio Brando, Jotaro Kujo and his grandfather Jonathan Joestar had to call to their side a team of expert fighters, all Stand users like themselves.
Boomstick: For a quick refresher, Stands are spirits that certain people can call to their side in battle.
Wiz: Among the Stardust Crusaders was Mohammed Avdol with Magician's Red, Noriaki Kakyoin with Hierophant Green and Jean Pierre Polnareff with Silver Chariot.
Boomstick: And like any team, they have themselves a team pet.
Wiz: Enter Iggy, a pure bred Boston Terrier from the Streets of New York.
- Background
- Height: 1’4
- Dog Breed: Boston Terrier
- Part of the Stardust Crusaders
- Leader of a dog street gang
- Likes chewing gum
Boomstick: Iggy was basically a literal example of a top dog, because whilst in New York, he amassed himself a large gang of dogs at his beck and call, until he was caught by Jonathon's company and brought to the Stardust Crusaders to serve as an additional member, and definitely not as their team mascot. Guess a pure bred Boston Terrier is just that valuable, huh? Wonder how he even ended up on the streets.
Wiz: Dog breeds aside, the reason why Iggy was called upon by the Stardust Crusaders was because he actually had a Stand of his own, being one of the few animals to have one.
Boomstick: Stands are cool and all, but Iggy's leaves a little something to be desired in regards to its name; the Fool.
Wiz: Trust me when I say that the selling point of the Fool isn't it's name, but rather it's unique ability to control sand.
- The Fool
- Manipulation of sand
- Manifests as mechanical beast
- Shape-shifting properties
- Superhuman strength
- Superhuman speed
- Construct formation
- Waterproof
Boomstick: May not sound like much but the ability to control a malleable series of particles that can get anywhere and never seem to come out is actually one heck of an ability to have.
Wiz: And Iggy knows how to use this sand-manipulation ability to its fullest. He can have it form into shape he wants, be it spikes, dome or even in a mimicry of other living things. Which is weird because sand usually doesn't come in all the colors of the visible light spectrum, but hey, his home series does have the word Bizarre in its name.
Boomstick: Unlike other Stands, Iggy's isn't exactly characterized by a spirit floating over his spirit, rather it's the ability to control sand that is his stand. But when he wants to show he means business, or at the very least have himself a buddy in battle, he can use sand to create a mechanical looking beast that's just awesome looking.
Wiz: The sand Iggy is able to take control over is enhanced to extreme levels, as it becomes hard enough to block powerful attacks, fast enough to tag other Stands and even waterproof.
Boomstick: If I had the Fool as a Stand, I'd probably be able to finally get all the sand grains from the inside of my backpack. Those things never come out, no matter how many times I turn it inside out!
- Feats
- Outpaced Silver Chariot
- Survived attacks from Horus
- Chewed off his own paw
- Cowed two dogs into submission
- Sabotaged the plans of numerous Stand users
- Found DIO’s mansion
- Defeated Silver Chariot, Pet Shop, Kenny G.
Wiz: During his time as a member of the Stardust Crusaders, Iggy has proved himself to be quite a thorn in the side of DIO's minions, and sometimes to even his allies.
Boomstick: Like Polnareff and his Stand, Silver Chariot, trapping it in confines made of sand.
Wiz: Although there are sources that claim Silver Chariot can reach light-speeds, as said in Jotaro VS Kenshiro, if it truly could it would have been able to catch a Stand that travels as a beam of light without using a plan to control its direction. So at the very least Silver Chariot and thus the Fool should be capable of relativistic speeds.
Popup: It has been stated that Jotaro's Stand, Star Platinum, would be unlikely to be able to defeat the Fool.
Boomstick: Iggy has also fought against DIO's pet falcon Pet Shop, who has a Stand known as Horus.
Wiz: Horus was able to generate a massive spike of ice out of thin air which, according to Dargoo Faust on the VS wiki, would have required nearly 500 million joules of energy. Sadly, Iggy didn't get through the Crusade alive.
Popup: It appears that even when surrounded by sand, Iggy cannot control it all, suggesting he can only control a small amount of sand at a time.
Boomstick: He ended up biting the dust against one of DIO's last minions, Vanilla Ice, who's Stand have a worse name than Iggy's own; Cream. But before expiring, Iggy saved the life of fellow crusader Polnareff, enabling him to bring down DIO's bodyguard.
Wiz: Proving in spite of his canine status, Iggy was one notorious Stand wielder.
Interlude[]
Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set, time to end this debate once and for all.
Boomstick: It's time for a Death Battle!
The Battle[]
Iggy trotted down the street of a small city, following his nose of a nice smell. Soon, he saw the source of the smell; a submarine sandwich in the paws of Jake the Dog, who bringing it up his mouth, intending to eat in a single bite.
But before he could Iggy leaped forward and snatched it out of my Jake's grasp just as he bit down.
Jake: No! Mi Amore!
Jake watched in near heartbreak as Iggy chowed down the stolen sandwich before his facial expression morphed to one of anger.
Jake: That was my sandwich.
Iggy looked over his shoulder at Jake as he swallowed the last mouthful of sandwich, thinking internally;
Iggy: Oh, grow up about it pal.
Jake: No, I won't forgive this! I can't actually read you're mind since you didn't actually talk, but I know it's something to do with 'It's no big deal', but it ain't, so prepare yourself!
Iggy growled and turned to face Jake.
FIGHT!
Jake raised his fist and enlarged it to the size of a large car and brought it down on Iggy, seemingly crushing the smaller dog. However, as the dust risen up from the impact vanished, Jake saw that a dome of sand had been constructed around Iggy with the power of his Stand.
Jake: Hey...
Suddenly, a fist made of sand erupted from the dome and smashed into Jake's face, sending the bulldog flying backwards with a yell of surprise to crash down further along the street. As Jake got back to his feet, it was revealed that his face had been comically mushed into itself, but soon popped back to normal. Jake grinded in teeth in annoyance.
Jake: Okay, so you got a few tricks? But so do I...like Axe Hand!
Jake morphed his paw into the shape of a sharp axe and launched himself back towards Iggy, slashing down with the weaponized limb as he did. Iggy commanded the Fool to summon a spike of sand to block Jake's attack, before generating some tendrils to sand to block up Jake's follow-up slashes. Jake sliced through the tendrils easily whilst still in the air, before shaping his body into the form of a weight to attempt to crush Iggy below him. The Boston Terrier quickly rolled out of the way of Jake's descent, before planting his four paws back on the ground and commanding a wall of sand to rising up behind him, from which spikes of sand shot out towards Jake. Jake enlarged his ear and held it before him as shield against the spiky projectiles, but the shield was still made of his own flesh, and so, still hurt.
Jake: OW, OW, OW, OW, OW, OW, OW!
In spite of the pain, Jake marched back towards Iggy even as the rival dog continued to fire the sandy spikes at him, morphing his hand into the shape of a giant spiked ball as he did. With a grunt, he hurled the transformed fist over his shield and at Iggy, who, acting fast, commanded the wall of sand behind him to form beneath his feet and propel him up into the air to avoid the strike as it cracked the ground. Iggy prepared another couple of sand spikes to rain down at Jake, but the bulldog also acted fast, yanking the spiked ball upwards towards Iggy, who was forced to change the sand spikes into a sand sphere around himself so he could avoid being splattered. The attack still proved powerful enough to send the sphere of sand flying backwards to smash into a wall, remaining embedded before rolling free. Jake strode over, enlarged his hands to pick up the sphere and shook it about.
Jake: Get out of here you coward!
Inside his shield, Iggy breathed out in relief.
Iggy: Yikes, this mutt is tougher than he looks! Well, good thing I'm safe in here...
He was instantly proven wrong when one of Jake's fists, morphed into the shape of a drill, smashed through into the sphere. Iggy let out a yelp of fear as Jake's hands felt about the inside of the structure.
Jake: You're in here somewhere, and when I get my hands on you you're going to in for a world of-OW!
Iggy had just bitten down on one of Jake's hands in a vice-like bite. As Jake hollered in pain, Iggy dispelled the sphere in an outwards explosion, one of the chunks slamming into Jake's face and blinding him with grit to the eyes. As Jake hacked and coughed, Iggy landed on his face and bite him again, this time on the nose. Jake let out another yell of pain and tried to Punch the smaller dog, only for Iggy to release his oral hold and drop down on the ground, causing Jake to punch himself in the face.
Jake: Oof!
Iggy took advantage of Jake's distress to dart between his legs and hightail it down the street. Jake rotated his face around to the face of his head to continue glaring at the retreating Boston Terrier.
Jake: Oh no you don't!
He extended his arms after Iggy, who commanded a wall a sand to hide him from view. Although Jake quickly punched through it, Jake found that Iggy had escaped his sight.
Jake: Aw nuts and guts! Well, time to do this the old fashioned way.
He took several sniffs of the air and followed his nose down an alleyway in search of Iggy, but was distracted by his belly rumbling.
Jake: Ah, now I really wish that jerk hadn't taken my sandwich!
Suddenly, he noticed another sandwich, similar to the one he had lost, sitting upon an upturned crate, and he brightened up.
Jake: Oh thank Grob.
He picked it up and got ready to take a bite when his nose twitched.
Jake: What a minute; doesn't smell like a sandwich. Smells like...sand but without the wich!
And true to his proclamation, the sandwich suddenly burst into a cascade of sand that swept over Jake. Jake let out a muffled cry of panic before the sand hardened and pinned him against the wall, completely trapping him beneath the sand. Iggy revealed himself from his hiding place, beneath the crater that the false sandwich has been sitting on, chuckling to himself smugly at seeing Jake trapped into a cocoon of sand.
Iggy: Let's see how tough you are when you can't get any oxygen.
As Jake was smothered by the sand, he closed his eyes and mouth, not just to stop the particles from entering the delicate facial areas, but so that he could start literally blowing himself up to a larger size. Iggy noticed this when he saw his sand start to expand outwards and attempted to mentally refortify the sand. But it was useless as Jake burst from the sand, scattering it everywhere and leaving Iggy with none of the substance to protect himself from the barrage of punches that came with Jake causing multiple copies of his arms to sprout from the original two limbs. Each fist slammed into Iggy, battering him around before Jake withdrew all of his limbs into one giant fist and delivered a powerful strike to Iggy, sending him flying out of the alleyway. He landed chin first, raking across the ground before coming to a stop.
Iggy: Ah...that kind of reminded me of someone who also likes punching.
He didn't have time to think for long, because Jake's arm, in the form of a lasso, had wrapped around one of his back legs and yanked him towards the bulldog. Iggy landed right into Jake's gut and a quick shape-shifting from Jake later which turned him into a catapult, Iggy found himself resting in a basket.
Jake: Sayonara!
The catapult that was Jake's arm snapped forward and Iggy was sent hurtling over the distance. Jake watched him fly off and shifted back to normal, paws on his hips and feeling very proud of himself. But just as he turned around, he felt something snag his foot. Looking down, he saw it was a tendril of sand, that stretched all the way to the airborne Iggy. Physics quickly took hold as the distance needed for it to go taunt was reached and Jake was yanked into the air, following his catapulted foe out of the city.
As Iggy fell towards the desert ground which surrounded the city, he commanded some sand to leap up and absorb his landing impact before yanking on the sand whip to send Jake smashing down onto the ground, throwing up a massive cloud of smoke. Jake stumbled back to his feet as he groaned in pain before his eyes snapped open when he realized that something was rising up behind Iggy; a mechanical four legged creature with a metal mask.
Iggy: You're in for it now pal!
Numerous spiked tendrils of sand erupted from the ground straight towards Jake, who dodge left and right of the first two before growing a hole in his torso to avoid a third. The assault didn't end there however, and Jake found himself being forced to extend his body all over the area to avoid getting skewered. Eventually, Jake stretched himself forward in a spiral, avoiding more sand spikes as he did so that he could close the distance between him and Iggy. As Jake's outstretched hands attempted to grab Iggy, his bestial construct leaped forward to meet Jake, entering a grapple with the bulldog. The two attempted to overpower the other, with Jake using his shape-shifting to increase his muscle mass as Iggy added more sand to the construct.
Jake: I...ain't...losing...to a pile of sand!
Iggy snarled at Jake and continued to add sand to the Fool to empower it, but Jake's own increasing size proved to be far faster, and soon Iggy found himself looking up a building sized Jake. Iggy's mouth dropped open Jake raised a foot and smashed his construct to pieces. Iggy let out a yell of panic and ran across the desert in an attempt to get away from Jake, who stomped after him. As Iggy ran pull pelt away, Jake leaped forward and snatched up Iggy in his paws, holding him completely trapped.
Jake: I have you now pal!
He opened by his clasped palms a crack and peered into the darkness.
Jake: Now where are you...ARRRRLLGGHHH!
A blast of sand struck him in the face. This time, it didn't stop at being simply a form of battery, as it seeped into Jake's mouth and eyes, entering his body. Jake mumbled in-cohesively as he stumbled back, tripping over to crash onto his back. As he clawed at his face, Jake was unable to stop Iggy commanding more sand to both engulf and enter his body. Soon, Jake was close to bursting from all the sand inside of him. Iggy taunted his downed foe by climbing onto his body and standing on his nose, grinning down at the helpless bulldog.
Iggy: Anything else pal? Or are you at the end of your tail?
Something then erupted from the ground behind Iggy and darted straight towards him; it was Jake's tail, punched through and out the ground in the form of a blade. Iggy barely had time to turn around before the sharpened tail sliced through his neck, separating his head from his body. As the Boston Terrier's body toppled off his face, Jake spewed out the sand inside of himself, returning to his normal size.
Jake: Bleck! Now I hate sand.
KO!
Outcome[]
Boomstick: So that's why dogs chase their tails. They make good weapons.
Wiz: In spite of how similarly versatile their power sets were, Jake ultimately possessed more physical superiority against Iggy.
Boomstick: That was extra useful considering that unlike other Stands, the effects of Iggy's could actually be seen and interacted with by people without stands, since the Fool was the direct manipulation of sand itself, so Jake could actually fight back against it.
Popup: Jake could see and interact with his conscience, which did have a presence as a witch was able to see it, proving he could see Iggy’s Stand even if it was purely spiritual.
Wiz: And fight against it Jake certainly could. Whilst both he and Iggy were about roughly in the same area of speed, relativistic, Jake was far too tough for Iggy to hurt.
Boomstick: Remember that lightning bolt Jake took head on? Well they can deliver 5 billion joules of energy. That's an additional 7.5 billion joules higher than the 492 million joules that Iggy could block from Horus.
Wiz: Even if Iggy used his sand-controlling Stand to go for more strategic methods of attack rather than those involving brute force, such as forcing it into Jake's body to blow him up from the inside, Jake has survived and dealt with a similar issue when a psychic sphinx filled his body with Candy People, both ejecting and healing from the internal invasion. And even then, Jake was way too powerful for Iggy to last long against.
Boomstick: Jake has claimed to be about 10 times stronger than Finn, who once shattered a huge ruby crystal with a single blow.
Popup: Jake was apparently unable to break down a wooden door, but was in the middle of carrying out a prank so likely wasn’t even trying.
Wiz: A feat which came out to 5 trillion joules of force. Even if Jake was overestimating himself with the times 10 strength difference, he would still pack a large enough punch to put Iggy down, and bust through any of his sand shields in the process. Whilst the two could have potentially been equal in speed, Jake had the durability and strength to tip the balance in his favor.
Boomstick: It was Foolish of Iggy to Stand against him.
Wiz: The winner is Jake the Dog.

Trivia[]
- The connection between Jake and Iggy is that they are both intelligent dogs with abilities relating to shape-shifting; Jake can stretch his body any way he wants and Iggy's Stand manipulates sand. Both have also been parts of ne'er-do-well gangs (Jake led a criminal group and Iggy led a pack of stray dogs) and have fought against vampires; Marceline and Vanilla Ice, respectively. Both their powers are also alien in nature; Jake is half-alien whilst Stands like Iggy's originated due to a space virus.
- This battle would have been in 2D
- The original music for this battle would have been called 'Adventurous Dogs', referring to both their homes series having the world Adventure in them and how they are both dogs
