Popeye vs Spongebob! Which sea related cartoon character with insane abilities will win?
Interlude[]
Wiz: Cartoons have been around since the days of black and white Mickey Mouse cartoons, and have evolved ever since.
Boomstick: And these two are great examples of how the industry has evolved.
Wiz: SpongeBob, Bikini Bottom's fry cook
Boomstick: And Popeye, the overpowered sailor.
Wiz: I'm Wizard and He's Boomstick and it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle?
SpongeBob[]
Boomstick: Does this guy really need an introduction? I mean, I would give out one, but Viacom would probably take it down.
Wiz: You're right on that. Anyway, Spongebob Squarepants is a sea sponge that works at the Krusty Krab in Bikini Bottom. He lives next to an octopus named Squidward and a starfish named Patrick.
Boomstick: He's an octopus? I always thought he was a squid.
Wiz: So did Miiverse.
Weapons and Abilities:
- Spatula (A cooking utensil that can act like a sword)
- Bubble Blower
- Bubble Bombs
- Bubble Bounce (Gives Spongebob an extra jump)
- Cruise Bubble (Acts like a missile)
- Bubble Bowl (Acts like a bowling ball)
- Regeneration
- Pain Tolerance
- Ground Slam (Similar to Mario's ground pound)
- Karate
- The Quickster suit (Gives Spongebob a speed boost)
- Invincibubble (Gives Spongebob a strength boost and the ability to shoot bubbles)
- Magic Page (A magical page that can grant a wish via reality warping)
Boomstick: Spongebob also has a surprising amount of feats. For example, a guy punched him throughout an entire day and he didn't feel a thing. Spongebob also has survived being electrocuted, crushed, burned, smashed and stabbed, tanked an town sized explosion, and defeated King Neptune and has defeated Plankton multiple times.
Wiz: However, Spongebob definitely isn't perfect. SpongeBob's durability and strength is very inconsistent, he's kind of an idiot, he's childish, annoying, is weak to heat and he lacks common sense.
Boomstick: And don't even get us started on Seasons 4-8, because those seasons were AWFUL!
Spongebob: I AM SPONGEBOB, DESTROYER OF EVIL!
Popeye[]
Wiz: Popeye the Sailorman is a character who doesn't really have a backstory, but my god, this guy is overpowered.
Boomstick: How the hell does Bluto survive all of this?
Wiz: I really don't know.
Weapons and Abilities:
- Spinach (Gives him a MASSIVE stat boost and immunity to reality warping)
- Corn Cob Pipe (Can be used as a flamethrower)
- Lasso
- Anchor
- Shot Gun
- Large amount of toon force.
Wiz: Since there's so many Popeye feats, we'll give you a link to them here:

Boomstick: Holy moly that's a HUGE list!
Wiz: As for weaknesses, uh, he's not very smart and he's loses a lot of strength when the spinach effects are up.
Boomstick: All hail our new god. Superman and Goku don't have shit on this guy!
Popeye: I'm strong to the finich, 'cause I eats me spinach. I'm Popeye the Sailor Man! (Toot! Toot!)
Pre-Fight[]
Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set. Let's end this debate once and for all.
Boomstick: It's time for a Death Battle!
Fight[]
On the middle of the sea, Spongebob walks out in front of the ocean alongside Patrick. Popeye was also nearby, and thought these two were sea monsters. Popeye then proceeds to rush up to the starfish and uppercut him back into the ocean.
Spongebob: Hey, what was that for?
Popeye: You guys are sea monsters! You must be destroyed before you do damage!
Spongebob: But I'm not a monster.
Popeye: That's what they all say.
The two then get into fighting stances.
Popeye rushes up to Spongebob and punches a few times before kicking him down. Spongebob fell backwards, but he quickly got up and pulled out his Bubble Blower. Spongebob then proceeds to fire Bubble Bombs at Popeye. Popeye destroys the first two bombs, but gets hit by a third one and is knocked down. Popeye sees another bomb coming and rolls out of the way, before pulling out his shot gun and firing bullets at Spongebob. However, Popeye's shot gun doesn't do any damage to Spongebob.
Spongebob: Dahahahahaha! That tickles!
Popeye is shocked, before he receives a Karate Chop from Spongebob that knocks him down. Spongebob then rushes towards Popeye and performs a Ground Smash, but Popeye moves out of the way and punches Spongebob three times. Before Popeye can uppercut him, Spongebob uses a Karate Kick on Popeye, which stuns him. Spongebob then pulls out his Spatula and starts slashing Popeye multiple times before using Bubble Bash, which sends Popeye down.
Popeye: This monster is harder than I thought! No more playing around.
Popeye gets up and pulls out his lasso and throws it, which traps Spongebob by the arm.
Popeye: Get over here!
Popeye pulls Spongebob towards him and uses his Corn Cob Pipe as a flamethrower and burns Spongebob, which does massive damage to him. Spongebob regenerates, and throws a Bubble Bowl at Popeye, who jumps over it and kicks Spongebob down. Spongebob then turns into the Quickster and starts blitzing Popeye, who gets hit by SpongeBob's punches over and over again. Popeye is then stunned, which allows Spongebob to hit him with the Cruise Bubble, which sends him flying
Popeye then grabs his anchor and throws it at Spongebob, which hits him in the face. Popeye then rushes over and starts punching Spongebob with rapid fast punches, which causes him to lose his Quickster suit. Popeye then starts using lightning fast kicks before performing a charge attack, which sends both of them crashing into beach chairs. Spongebob recovers first and starts swinging his Spatula at Popeye. Popeye blocks his attacks and throws a punch, but Spongebob jumps over his attacker and turns into Invincibubble.
Spongebob: Prepare to be destroyed!
Spongebob then shoots bubbles from his antenna at Popeye. Popeye easily destroys them with his punches, then pulls out his Corn Cob Pipe again and shoots another fire blast at Spongebob. Spongebob quickly avoids this and punches Popeye multiple times. Spongebob then finishes his combo with a kick, which knocks Popeye into a palm tree. Popeye recovers, only to get hit by SpongeBob's rapid firing bubbles. Popeye got hit so many times that he actually fell through the tree and break it.
Popeye: Hmm, what can I do.....Oh yeah, my Spinach!
Popeye then grabs a can of spinach and eats it, which makes him insanely stronger. Spongebob sees this and starts firing more bubbles at Popeye, who rushes right through them and starts comboing Spongebob with extremely fast attacks, which causes him to lose his Invincibubble form and turn back to normal. Popeye then delivers a powerful uppercut which sends Spongebob flying into the sun, where he burns to death.
Popeye: Oh! I'm strong to the finach, cause I eats me spinach, I'm Popeye the sailor man! (Toot, toot)
KO!
Results[]
Boomstick: Well, about time someone ended him!
Wiz: While Spongebob had more abilities and had some hax with him, Popeye completely destroyed him in every other category. For starters, Popeye is strong enough to punch Bluto so hard he went back in time and turned into a baby, and he even lassoed the entire Grand Canyon. Spongebob, meanwhile, has very inconsistent strength.
Boomstick: And while neither of them are intelligent, Popeye had more battle experience. Popeye also had his Corn Cob Pipe flamethrower, which could do massive damage to Spongebob since he's weak to heat.
Wiz: And when Popeye activated his spinach, Spongebob definitely wasn't gonna last long.
Boomstick: Looks like Spongebob found his place in the sun.
Wiz: The winner is Popeye.

Description[]
Cartoons have always been a huge thing with toon force being a common thing within the genre, these two sea characters who have an interest on food are some notable examples to this, but who will win?
Interclude[]
Wiz: Popeye the Sailor, the spinach eating sailor.
Boomstick: SpongeBob SquarePants, the iconic sponge from under the sea.
Wiz: Being in the ocean is nothing to mess with especially with sharks, jellyfish, etc.
Boomstick: and unstoppable toon users, he's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a Death Battle.
SpongeBob Is Ready For DEATH BATTLE![]
(Cue: SpongeBob Trap Remix "Krusty Krab")
Wiz: SpongeBob was an all out classic to the Nickelodeon channel to the point he became the well deserved mascot of it. Fun fact, he was originally gonna be called "SpongeBoy" but then rebranded into "SpongeBob" afterwards.
Boomstick: How is that?
Wiz: Stephen Hillenburg was a marine biologist before getting into cartoons. He worked on Rocko's Modern Life and then eventually created SpongeBob.
Boomstick: Then he got his job at the Krusty Krab which is basically a parody of McDonald's and ever since that episode, SpongeBob was then friends with a bunch of Bikini Bottom folks with the main ones being Patrick, Squidward, Sandy, and Mr. Krabs huh?
Wiz: That is correct. SpongeBob, the little sea animal we once had may look innocent in the start but don't let that slide, he's got a lot of crazy stuff in his hands.
Boomstick: This guy really is something.
Wiz: Yea, I mean he was able to unravel the universe just by pulling a string.
Boomstick: With the fact that he survived Randomland that denies the laws of physics and was unable to be hurt.
Wiz: Never judge a book by it's cover, goes to show even the most innocent children show characters are OP as hell. He really has a lot of weaponry as hell, from the pencil to the magic page.
Boomstick: Hell, he could not even feel pain at all.
Wiz: Let's not overrate the sponge too much though, his durability is very inconsistent since there were a time where he failed to lift marshmellows but was still strong enough to lift Neptune's spatula.
Boomstick: SpongeBob's IQ is not very good either so he could potentially be outsmarted in this matchup, but let's see how this would go.
Wiz: Exactly though he has really good durability as well considering the fact he was able to survived the pie explosion and he destroyed the universe just by pulling a string like it was nothing.
Boomstick: Gosh darn, and he wasn't aware he did this?
Wiz: Nope. He just pulled apart the universe without even knowing. Also, SpongeBob was able to survive nukes and when he and Patrick were building he moved the earth and didn't even realize that either.
Boomstick: Woah that's insane.
Wiz: It sure is. Also, to add up to the SpongeBob cosmology, he was coffinite that he and Patrick could save the Little Monkey Man and save the 8th dimension. SpongeBob and Patrick has also destroyed "Pencil's the Pirate" and he sees all of Nickelodeon as fiction.
Boomstick: Wow, he really is broken as hell huh?
Wiz: He really is. SpongeBob has a lot of forms up his sleeves as well such as Goofy Goober SpongeBob and Invincibubble. You know when you think of it, SpongeBob really is always ready.
Popeye Eats Spinach To DEATH BATTLE![]
(Cue: Popeye the Sailor Man Theme)
Wiz: Here comes another classic golden age cartoon, Popeye the Sailor Man a.k.a the classic cartoon made to encourage kids to eat their vegetables specifically spinach.
Boomstick: Popeye has been known as one of the best toon force users out there. Once he eats the can of spinach you know you are screwed.
Wiz: When Popeye eats his spinach, he was able to give the sun a black eye, survived the universe being turned off, the list could just go on. Popeye was also strong enough to literally punch his own animator.
Boomstick: What the heck? That actually sounds crazy for a feat, punching your own creator? That's some god level strength right there.
Wiz: Popeye overall has some really broken and insane abilities. I also can not forget that one time where he punched his opponents so hard that the filmmaker literally ripped off in the progress of him doing so.
Boomstick: This alone just goes to show that cartoon characters are something that you don't want to mess with especially when bloodlusted. Now enough with Popeye's powers, how about the lore and canon to Popeye?
Wiz: Popeye the Sailor was actually inspired by Frank "Rocky" Fiegel and that also explains why they look alike, Frank is basically the real life Popeye when you think of it.
Boomstick: Now with the backstory of Popeye, Popeye was abandoned by his dad Poopdeck Pappy due to looking ugly from birth, while he does look ugly for a lot of people he became an excellent combat fighter, he was so fast he was even able to punch himself and looks like he's everywhere. I almost forgot to mention that he even pulled the moon to earth and I thought Bugs Bunny was already incredible toon force user but this is just even more insane. Man, lemme say you really gotta love the golden age of cartoons.
Wiz: Indeed you gotta, Popeye has been one of the best toon force to ever existence though he isn't really smart since if his opponent gets their hands on his spinach and they eat it, they will gain the same strength as him.
Boomstick: Popeye still has his fair share of weakness and isn't that OP such as he is soft hearted and doesn't want to hurt innocents and has shown some hypocrisy like he doesn't like hurting animals even though he does so while he may be OP, he's not perfect. Anyways, let's let this Death Battle begin.
Intermission[]
Wiz: Alright the combatants are set, let's end this debate once and for all.
Boomstick: It's time for a Death Battle!
Death Battle[]
Popeye was entering the Krusty Krab wanting to order a Krabby Patty, once he got his order he sat on a chair and pulled out a can of spinach.
Squidward: Excuse me sir, no outside food allowed here.
Popeye: Listen here squid man, you don't tell me what to do guess if I can't bring my spinach here I won't give this place my money.
Mr. Krabs: Huh? Money?
Mr. Krabs was then seen rushing out of the office and confronts Popeye.
Mr. Krabs: Hey not paying customer, why won't you pay for this thing?
Popeye: Because your restaurant won't allow outside food in here, therefore I am leaving.
Mr. Krabs: NOT PAYING CUSTOMER!!!
The scene then cuts to black as a punch was heard, SpongeBob was then seen walking out of the kitchen to see what is happening.
SpongeBob: Hey fine customer I hope you enjoy your mea... MR. KRABS??? WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU???
Mr. Krabs then got up and revealed the story to SpongeBob on what happened.
Mr. Krabs: Boy... that sailor won't pay me and now he punched me... I don't know how much time I have left...
Squidward: Ok, how dramatic.
SpongeBob: Oh no Mr. Krabs, I'm going to deal with him for you.
SpongeBob then sees Popeye walking out of the Krusty Krab and then stops him.
SpongeBob: Hey you, sailor.
Popeye: Huh?
SpongeBob: You can't injure my boss like this, I don't know what's wrong with you to assault people like this.

Trivia[]
- The connections between Popeye and SpongeBob are that both of them are some of the most iconic cartoon characters that are usually upbeat. They both face a petty villain (Plankton and Bluto) who desires something that they desire (Olive Oil and The Secret Formula) Both of their cartoons also largely revolve around their favorite food in a way. (In the Popeye cartoons he only wins thanks to eating spinach, and SpongeBob’s whole job is making Krabby Patties)
