DEATH BATTLE

Very powerful. Probably stronger than the majority of Blaz Blue characters by quite a bit.

It would if they intend to stick to the "Characters who have given an ability up and no longer possess it don't have access to it in the Death Battle."

How is Homura's demon form outside assistance? Also, Spawn gave up his god form, whereas as of the most recent media Homura still has hers.

When have they done that aside from Gaara (who became more powerful after the time skip than he ever was with Shukaku)?

Of course, I'm not even sure what keeping the Left Eye would even do to the battle. That power was always super vague. Even Ganondorf's Triforce of Power has some obvious feats.

Spawn and his Ascended Demon form. Plus, IIRC following "Gaara vs Toph" that was why they didn't factor in Shukaku in addition to Gaara's Part II power levels.

Ah. haven't seen that one. That'd explain it.

On the other hand with Gaara, he got even stronger than he was with Shukaku later in the series, so him at his strongest would still be him without Shukaku.

Maybe, but if they gave him Shukaku he'd have its power in addition to his own. And there's always the argument that it would have given him the victory.

Endgame-arc Gaara + Shukaku is not a thing that ever existed, though. At best, you can argue that Endgame-arc Gaara is inferior to start-of-Shippuden Gaara, due to the latter having the Shukaku.

It wouldn't be the first time they composited different versions of a character.

This isn't compositing versions of a character (as with Link). This is outright speculation of what a character might've been if the story went differently.

One could argue that's what they did with Nightmare.

I want to see Agent Smith vs Kirito. Just to see how Deathbattle weighs feats from different virtual realities

The problem with using Homura is that she's an anticlimax by definition due to her Superpower Lottery ability. One of the following is guaranteed:

• Homura wins so effortlessly that there isn't even really a fight at all. See Homura v. Charlotte.
• Homura loses because her opponent can No-Sell anything and everything she can possibly throw at it, rendering the entire fight pointless because Homura never could have scratched the opponent in the first place. See Homura v. Walpurgisnacht.

The ability to freeze time indefinitely without any drawbacks or limitations is nearly impossible to write an interesting fight around. Even Rebellion Story was only able to give Homura an engaging fight by using narrative fiat to neutralize her time-freeze advantage immediately as the fight started.

Limitless time freeze means that if the possibility exists for Homura to win, then Homura wins. If Homura doesn't win, then her opponent is so far beyond her that she never could have won.

I could See Homura fighting Asura from Asura's Wrath, actually.

He would object to how she tries to save the one dear to her, by essentially ruining everyone else's life for her own selfish gain, where he wants to save his daughter, but also stop selfish assholes from abusing their power on people who have no control on what they do to them.

Asura would sock Akuma Homura in the god damn face, basically.

Watch Symphogear

But would it be an interesting fight, or would it just be him effortlessly crunching her with overwhelming power while No Selling a million simultaneous gunshots?

The most interesting match up I can think of for Homura is Homura vs. the Determined child. It would be almost a literal battle of wills as neither character is in that much danger of dying save for running out of hope/determination. Perhaps a better One Minute Melee than proper Death Battle.

The Crystal Caverns A bird's gotta sing.

Well, Homura can die without running out of hope, it just requires her soul gem to be smashed. She's a lich; you break her phylactery, you win.

You can deliver a lethal blow to her. The problem simply comes from the fact that you won't on account of her limitless time-stop.

How long would it take for some to notice Homura's time stopping, the delay between activation and time stop, and the back of her hand. Otherwise her opponent would be wondering what the hell is going on. Or they'd be dead or incapacitated.

Well, there's the fact that in Madoka's rebooted universe Homura didn't have Time Stop powers, she had a black bow and energy wings. And her powers as Akuma Homura are extremely poorly defined.

I just now thought of a good opponent for Weiss Schnee: Edward Elric (in terms of thematics as Weiss's Semblance is basically Ed's Alchemy)

You know, I have to wonder why Pit is obsessed with this site. It’s gonna ruin his life!

Not really. A better opponent would be Mitsuru, but she doesn't have enough notable feats. Maybe something from the movies?

Ed's the closest I could think of for a potential opponent.

And a part of me wishes that fight would start because Weiss pushes Ed's Berserk Button

You know, I have to wonder why Pit is obsessed with this site. It’s gonna ruin his life!

Still think Shanoa can be a potential opponent for Weiss.

Who is that?

Batman vs Green Arrow.
