## Description

Monika VS Steve is the 2nd episode of Armored Arena, featuring Monika from ZAMination's *Doki Doki Literature Club* music videos and Steve from Black Plasma Studios' animation series, *Animation Life*, in a battle between Minecraft computer manipulators.

## Introduction

"Computers were first used by scientists and now almost everyone has access to one. But what if a computer program had a mind of its own. Like

Monika, ZAMination’s iteration of the president of the Doki Doki Literature Club, and

Steve, Black Plasma Studios’ warrior of the Animation Life.

I’m your guide, Obsetileo, and welcome to the Armored Arena."

## Monika's Analysis

Monika is the president of the Doki Doki Literature Club. However do not mistake this one with the one from the video game. Although they share similar back stories, their ends are much different. Similar to the game, when her fellow classmate, Sayori, brought in her male friend, Monika quickly fell in love, and wanted him all to herself.

So in order to do this she manipulated the scripts of the other characters, and even straight up snapping them out of existence. However she also has other abilities like the ability to grow in size, flight, and psychic powers. She wields a special rope that can magically wrap around anything instantly, choking them to death.

With her abilities, she has trapped multiple players in her world. She has also got into the coding of her game, that allowed her to change the personalities of her classmates and even delete them. She can even manipulate the location and teleport the player to another world. Monika would do anything in order to have her time with her crush.

## Steve's Analysis

Steve is a virus that was found in the computer of a Black Plasma Studio animator. At first, he didn’t find himself as the virus, but once he had faced his other half, Herobrine, he found out that he was the virus the whole time. With this new discovery and merging with Herobrine, Steve learned how to use the powers for him.

These powers include teleportation and lightning summoning. He wields Herobrine’s sword, which allows him to harness the powers of lightning. With the powered sword, he can shoot lightning from it and create a shockwave around him. He also holds the fish emitter, given to him by the Derp. It emits thousands upon thousands of fish. This allows him to override the computer and enter the internal computer subspace.

With these abilities, he has destroyed a giant mirror, held up against Herobrine and Null, and killed a wither in one shot. Nothing will stop him in his adventure of his Animation Life.
