Description[]
Skullgirls vs Undertale! The dead walk and judgment is nigh, these two boneheads are out for revenge!. But between the two of them, which one will live to see their vengeance fulfilled? Will the Skullgirl be vanquished once more, or will Sans crumble to dust from the pressure?
Introduction[]
Wiz: Marie Korbel, the bloodied Skullgirl.
Boomstick: Sans, the skeleton.
Wiz: When given the chance, anyone is capable of bringing judgement upon those who've wronged them.
Boomstick: But for these two, being the judge isn't enough, and instead become the executioner as well. He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick!
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to see who would win... a DEATH BATTLE!
Marie Korbel[]
(Cue: OST #03 - Pedestrians Crossing)
Wiz: The Canopy Kingdom, the home of one of the strongest militaries, technology that surpasses everything modern man had made and even impresses me a bit-
Boomstick: And a history of being known for having their king be a warmonger.
Wiz: Yeeaaaaaahhh, about that... Several years ago, a massive war between the Canopy Kingdom, Chess Kingdom, and the Gigan Nation was happening, which only really stopped when the Skullgirl appeared, a being who threatens all life on the planet. With all sides being preoccupied with this new threat, areas outside of the three territories, like the No Man's Land, suffered greatly with death, destruction, and criminals.
Boomstick: Criminals, who's crimes are, but not limited to: Murder, kidnapping, human trafficking, mutilation, assaulting minors, slavery... I think you get the picture here.
Wiz: And unfortunately for said criminals, one of their countless victims was none other than the future current Skullgirl: Marie Korbel.
(Cue: OST #13 - Paved With Good Intentions)
Wiz: Seven years ago, the orphaned Marie Korbel, alongside everyone in the orphanage she was in, were victims of a group of slavers. And after watching her best friend getting her eyes getting gorged out, she escaped with the aid of the other orphans, with Marie being the only known escapee who made it out alive or in one piece.
Boomstick: …O-oh. Well that got dark real quick... And it's about to get darker! Ya see, after running like hell for a while, she happened upon a church, where a totally not suspicious nun gave her a totally not suspicious gift: the Skull Heart.
Wiz: The Skull Heart is a relic that can grant one wish of whatever girl obtains it. Be it to change one's fate, bring back loved ones who lost their lives, or even stop a war. And that's just what we know of.
Boomstick: Wait, you have to be a girl to use it? DAMNIT! There goes my wish for free endless beer...
Wiz: That might actually be a good thing, seeing as no matter how pure or good-natured your intentions are with the wish, the Skull Heart corrupts whoever makes the said wish into a Skullgirl, a mere obedient pawn to a trio of goddesses who want nothing more than all life on Earth to be wiped out. And not only that, but the Skull Heart works akin to a monkey's palm, where your wish can be twisted into something you'd never accounted for.
Boomstick: Fair, but counterpoint: Free endless boooooooze, Wiz... Free endless boooooooze...
Wiz: Ugghh, there's no saving you, is there? Anyways, the power the Skull Heart gives isn't only limited to just wiping out all life, but also raising said wiped life and making them do your bidding, being able to levitate, summoning shadows and skulls to fight their foes, burning foes into a crisp, and if the Skullgirl is damaged enough, being able to regenerate after being reduced to mere bones.
Boomstick: God DAMN! Now that's some serious firepower! Sucks that she's a mindless slave now.
Wiz: Or you would think that at first, but surprisingly, Marie was able to resist the corruption of the Skull Heart. And now with her new found power, she tracked down the ones who made her life, and lives of her friends, hell and killed them, eventually finding out who their boss was: The Medici Mafia. Thus began her rampage in New Meridian for those with Medici blood or affiliate with them.
Boomstick: And that's it. …Is what we WOULD say if it wasn't for Marie's story mode finally coming out!
(Cue: Skullgirls I Bloody Marie's Theme I SV)
Wiz: That's right, Boomstick. You see, after getting tag teamed by/promptly beating Filia, Squigly, and her old friend Peacock, the Skull Heart was shattered after the trio tried to send it far away from their universe.
Boomstick: Now, you might think that would've killed her, right? No Skull Heart equals a dead Skullgirl and all that. Well fortunately for everyone, well mostly her and Peacock, she didn't! …Actually wait, why isn't she dead?
Wiz: Well simply put, a single shard of the Skull Heart imbedded itself inside of her, making it so that she wouldn't die.
Boomstick: Huh... Neat!
Wiz: And while that does possibly mean she likely wouldn't have the exact power she had back when she was a Skullgirl, here at Death Battle, we look at our combatants at their peak and prime. So the time she tore down and threw a 114 story building at a blimp across New Meridian? We're giving it to her.
Boomstick: Speaking of which, judging from the how far she threw it and comparing this building to the Empire State Building, which has only 102 stories, the amount of power she'd have to have to preform this feat should be around 3490 tons of TNT. Oh, by the way, this is ignoring that she did this while she was starting to be torn apart due to her resisting the Skull Heart's influence. And that's not even going over how she flat out destroyed an entire FUCKING CATHEDRAL BY JUST POWERING UP! I'm saying this now Wiz, she's up there as one of the most badass maids I've seen! Right behind the one from Black Lagoon!
Wiz: She's capable of creating skeletal constructs from the bones of the fallen she's gathered, which can regenerate if they're damaged, can fire skull projectiles, and can even suck foes closer to her and fire out dust bunnies from her vacuum.
Boomstick: She's beaten the likes of Valentine, who's capable of dodging Tommy guns, which have a velocity of going a little over 637 mph and Peacock in Big Band's story mode, who's capable of outrunning explosions, has rockets to make her cartoony ass go faster, and can fire laser beams at her foes. Hell, she can even make a giant ass titan mech and- HOLY SHIT, IS THAT A MOTHERFUCKING SPIRIT BOMB!?
(Cue: Skullgirls OST - All That Endures (Marie's Nightmare))
Wiz: But with all of this power, there's one threat that all of Marie's feats couldn't hope to surpass...
Boomstick: Ah yes, the challenge that everyone must face one day: Inner demons. Except unless all of us, these ones are more literal.
Wiz: Remember the trio of goddesses we've mentioned earlier? Yeah, there's more to them than just wanting to destroy the Earth. You see, they're imprisoned in a space outside of the Skullgirl universe, only able to interact with it like a video game thanks to the Skull Heart. And seeing that Marie, the Skullgirl who's been the closest to freeing them, was no longer doing what they wanted? They intervened through the shard inside her and confronted her within her very own mind through the appearance of Marie herself.
Boomstick: But with the help of of every Skullgirl they've ever duped, every person who died to a Skullgirl, and even the spirit of her old orphanage caretaker/father figure: Mr. Hilgard, she kicked the crap out of the faker and drove the Trinity back. And then... *Sniff*
Wiz: Boomstick, are you crying?
Boomstick (Voice breaking up): I'm sorry... It's just, I'm so happy for them... (Boomstick gives a deep inhale before continuing.) Just- just move onto her faults and give a minute... And maybe some adoption papers too...
Wiz: …Ok? (Wiz clears his throat.) But Marie isn't without her faults. She's been defeated and killed by almost everyone in their story modes and she's constantly struggling with the Skull Heart's control over her, which has shown to be able to tear her apart if it gets too bad.
Boomstick: Which can easily be taken care of if the Skull Heart is destroyed, though it does have a minor side affect of killing her in the process. And the fact that she doesn't really have a lot of fighting experience likely doesn't help all that much either.
Wiz: But the most interesting weakness of hers is that of the Skull Heart's limitations. You see, while the Skull Heart is capable of controlling the deceased, if they're capable of blocking out it's control, they're not only unaffected by the Skull Heart, but also amped by it as well.
Boomstick: But regardless of all that, there's a reason why she's the finale boss and one of the most badass maids of all time. And like all good maids, she's pretty damn good at taking out the trash.
Marie: Were you not told? This is not over.
Sans[]
(Cue: Undertale OST: 001 - Once Upon A Time - YouTube)
Wiz: Long ago, two races ruled over the Earth: Humans and Monster. One day, war broke out between the two, due to the fear humans had for the monsters' ability to absorb human souls. And while they fought bravely and with all they had, the humans effortlessly won the war.
Boomstick: And instead of going full genocide on them, the humans decided to instead trapped them all in Mt. Ebott, effectively screwing over all monsters to an eternal prison, which honestly might sound worst than killing them all.
Wiz: But fortunately, the monsters' society survived and adapted to their new prison. And while they are a bunch of colorful monsters with different personalities and quirks, there were always a couple of stand out ones. Be it the heroic and over the top captain of the Royal Guard Undyne, their kind and determined king Asgore, and even a pair of goofy skeleton brothers, Papyrus, and today's combatant: Sans.
(Cue: Undertale OST - sans. Extended - YouTube)
Wiz: After just arriving one day out of the blue his brother, Sans the Skeleton became one of the two sentries of Snowdin, protecting it's boarders and keeping an eye out for humans... Is what we would say if he a massive slacker.
Boomstick: No seriously. The guy takes the word "lazybones" to another level, despite having like, every job in the Underground. Eh, at least he's charismatic as hell. Hell, he even makes puns! He's like my spirit animal!
Wiz: Like his brother, Sans is capable of using magic, which he uses to summons bones and can turn a person's SOUL blue, increasing their weight to the point that they can't remain in the air. Not only that, but he seems to have the power to stop time around him and teleport. And not only that but like all monsters, he can harm the soul of person, there very culmination of their being.
Boomstick: He's unaffected by the blazing heat of the Hotlands and the bone numbing cold of Snowdin, can drink literal radioactive waste as if it were Mountain Dew, and has even shown to be aware of the 4th wall, winking and shrugging at us. Huh… Hey Wiz, when we agreed to look into this character, I fully expected him to be... more than this. Like don't get me wrong Wiz, Sans is cool and all, like I wouldn't mind cracking a few cold ones and come up with puns for the show with him, but I kinda thought in a game like Undertale, where flowers, undead children, and goats can nuke reality, that someone as popular as Sans would do something similar to that.
Wiz: While Sans doesn't have the power to destroy reality, there is more to him than meets the eye, but only if you're willing to commit to it.
Boomstick: Uhh... What do you mean by that, Wiz?
Wiz: Simply put? Genocide.
(Music stops)
Boomstick: Wait, WHAT!? I get that we pit characters in death matches with little care about what happens to them or everyone around them, but that's too far for even us Wiz!
…
…
…
*Both Wiz and Boomstick then start laughing hysterically for several seconds before calming down and continuing the analyze, with the music coming back.*
Wiz: *He sighs while wiping a tear.* But yeah, by killing all of the monster in the Underground, and I do mean ALL of them, Sans removes the mask of a lazy jokester and reveals what he truly is.
Boomstick: And what is that you may ask? Well, we'll let this clip speak for itself:
*The music fades as a clip of Sans preforming his speech before doing his first attack plays.*
Boomstick: Oh yeah. And the best part? Both we and Sans are just getting started.
(Cue: Undertale OST - Song That Might Play When You Fight Sans Extended)
Wiz: As said earlier, he's capable of doing anything his brother can do, be it bone attacks or turning one's SOUL blue. However unlike his brother, Sans can create legions upon legions of bones to attack his foes with. Not only that, but he's capable of tossing your SOUL around with his blue magic, be it either to harm you with the sheer force of how hard he throws you around or into his other attacks like his bones and Gaster Blasters, skull objects that fire beams from their mouths that can range from small and thin to big and wide.
Boomstick: And him being able to harm your SOUL? Well, not only can he just bypass any defense you have for it, which can make just one attack from him feel like a damn freight train ramming into you, but can even poison you with KR.
Wiz: KR, or as some call it: KARMA, is an unknown ability that Sans seems to be the only one who possesses it. And while it's unconfirmed what exactly it is and how it works, it's highly speculated that it involves using the sins of others against them. Like the old saying goes: What goes around, comes around.
Boomstick: Sans is able to fight, and even kill, a Frisk gone murder hobo, who's stronger than the likes of Mettaton, who can casually ram themselves through a fucking steel wall! Jeez, that has to be like, .024 tons of TNT. But that's not all, as this Frisk is stronger than their neutral run self, who could tank Undyne's house exploding, which has to be like, .0016 tons of TNT.
Wiz: He's capable of dodging all of Frisk's attack, which would make him faster than any speed feat Frisk has, which would include them dodging the sound of a dog's barking, a feat that one could only pull of if they were capable of going over Mach .5, and being able to dodge lightning, a feat that would make them a little over Mach 3, if not higher seeing as lighting is capable of being as fast as a little under Mach 352. And that's not even going over the Speed Tea, which can make them go faster than they are normally.
Boomstick: Or even including the fact that the both of them superior than the ghost Napstablook, who can react faster than LIGHT ITSELF! Hell, not even being exhausted through out an entire one on one death match or even being FUCKING ASLEEP seems to slow him down! Not even Flowey was safe from from his sick dunking skills!
Wiz: But Sans isn't as unstoppable as his boss fight and the fans would make you believe. As said earlier, he's a lazy bones who prefers to just slack off and do nothing instead of working or even fighting you outside of a Genocide Run, which doesn't help the fact that he can get winded to the point that he can't really attack anymore if he continually dodges throughout long, drawn-out fights.
Boomstick: Which all of this is likely thanks to the guy being depressed as hell, since he KNOWS that anything he does do gets wiped out by a reset, so why even bother doing anything unless literally everything is at stake?
Wiz: But that's not even the worst for Sans, as he's as durable as an actual skeleton, meaning if one attack hits him? It's game over. Meaning if someone's faster, more clever, more haxier, or even able to just nuke the whole area Sans is in, he's dust, literally.
Boomstick: And it doesn't help that Sans has the strength of one too, with the only thing helping him out being his ability to give the middle finger to invincibility frames and durability as he spams the shit out of his attacks. But hey, if you can play your cards right and not be a genocidal murder freak, or kill his brother, you just got yourself a best friend, who may or may not be able to help you write puns for a show you co-host.
Wiz: But if you decide to finish what the humans of old started, then you're going to have a bad time.
Sans: take care of yourself, kid. 'cause someone really cares about you.
Interlude[]
Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set. We've gathered and ran the data through all possibilities, so let's end this debate once and for all.
Boomstick: IT'S TIME FOR A DEATH BATTLE!
Death Battle[]
Pre-Fight[]
Location: Grand Cathedral
(Cue: Skullgirls OST #17 - Fugue in Three Goddesses)
The Grand Cathedral, a holy site to take refuge and confess their guilt and sins. However, little does anyone know that tonight it harbors a terrible secret. The scene slowly transitions to what lies underneath this holy ground as a lone figure surrounded by the skeletal remains of their victims. This figure was none other than the Skullgirl, a creature created when a girl makes a wish upon the Skull Heart, who's power is only matched by it's determination to wipe out the world. However, the Skull Heart's current host, Marie Korbel, was different than the other damned girls. She was capable of resisting the puppet strings the Skull Heart had on her, though for how long she did not know. All she know was that she's determined to finish her mission, and no one was going to-
"hey kiddo."
Marie turns around. She knew she was to expect some company, knowing her status as a Skullgirl, and she knew that either Double and Valentine would've likely betrayed her and come to take her out, but what she didn't expect was where the voice came from. In front of her stood a short skeleton wearing a blue hoodie and black shorts with pink slippers, having a permeant smile on his face, and his eye sockets having two white pupils in them. What more was that it was sticking it's hand out towards her. "what? don't you know how to great a new friend?" The skeleton asked her. "come on now, shake my hand."
(Cue: Skullgirls OST #20 - Dire Machinations)
"How curious..." Marie remarked. "And who might you be? The skeleton just stares at her. "huh, i take it that you 'skullgirls' that lady was talking about don't know much about manners." It commented. "don't even know how to greet new pals before asking about they been. eh, still better than what i've had to work with in the past." She stared at it in silence for a few seconds before she finally spoke. "My apologizes, Mr. Skeleton. It's just this is the first time I've seen a skeleton think and act on their own." She stuck out her hand and shook the skeleton's, and as she does that a loud sound could be heard echoing across the room. Confusion could be seen across her face as the skeleton looked as if it was struggling to contain it's laughter.
"oh man, the good old whoopie cushion in the hand trick. never gets old i tell ya. He lets go of her hand as it goes into his hoodie pocket before introduces himself. "i'm sans, sans the skeleton." He said casually. "and if you don't mind, i want you to stop whatever you got cooking up here." Stop? Wait a minute... Of course! This must be another creation from those labs to kill her. And in the form of a skeleton no less. She must admit, that's pretty sneaky of them to do, probably would've worked too. Though it having a casual and chummy personality really doesn't help it much in terms of a sneak attack. "And if I don't?" Marie said, preparing for a fight. Sans closes his eye socket. "well, if ya don't..." His eye sockets then soon opened, looking empty and soulless. "...I could reunite you with that freak of nature you call a bodyguard." He said coldly. "So," She thought. "That's what happened to Double and Valentine. And seeing he doesn't even look exhausted..." She can't take any chances with him.
"ya see kiddo," Sans said as his eyes turned back to normal. "it may surprise you that i'm not a big fan when me and my bro get mistaken for undead minions, especially ones of some crazed maniac chucking buildings around. maybe you've seen them before? they look about 13 years old, wears a maid outfit, and has red eyes." He looks straight at Marie. "does that sound familiar to you- Marie then interrupts him. "What is your point, skeleton?"
"my point is when that happens to me, my bro, and others, it kinda puts me in a bad mood. so stop it." His eye sockets then go empty again. "or you'll REALLY not gonna like what happens next. Marie closes her eyes. She's already gotten this far and this close to completing her goal. She can't stop now, and especially not because a mere skeleton told her to. Then, Marie opens her eyes. And when she did that, the entire room begins to shake more and more as the entire building begins to transform into something new, a stage for them to fight in. Marie, now surrounded by skulls of the departed, stares at Sans with intense determination as she prepares to put him to rest. "welp." Sans said as he pulled out a hand from his pocket and closed his eye sockets. "don't say i didn't warn you." He then opens his eye sockets again, this time his left eye now having a blue and yellow color to it while his right one is completely blank as three bones pop out of the floor and a skull of his own appears as the duo prepare their boney brawl.
