World of Warcraft

***World of Warcraft*** (***WoW***) is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) released in 2004 by Blizzard Entertainment. Set in the *Warcraft* fantasy universe, *World of Warcraft* takes place within the world of Azeroth, approximately four years after the events of the previous game in the series, *Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne.* The game was announced in 2001, and was released for the 10th anniversary of the *Warcraft* franchise on November 23, 2004. Since launch, *World of Warcraft* has had nine major expansion packs: *The Burning Crusade* (2007), *Wrath of the Lich King* (2008), *Cataclysm* (2010), *Mists of Pandaria* (2012), *Warlords of Draenor* (2014), *Legion* (2016), *Battle for Azeroth* (2018), *Shadowlands* (2020), and *Dragonflight* (2022). Three further expansions, *The War Within* (planned for 2024), *Midnight*, and *The Last Titan*, were announced in 2023.

Similar to other MMORPGs, the game allows players to create a character avatar and explore an open game world in third- or first-person view, exploring the landscape, fighting various monsters, completing quests, and interacting with non-player characters (NPCs) or other players. The game encourages players to work together to complete quests, enter dungeons and engage in player versus player (PvP) combat, however, the game can also be played solo without interacting with others. The game primarily focuses on character progression, in which players earn experience points to level up their character to make them more powerful and buy and sell items using in-game currency to acquire better equipment, among other game systems.

*World of Warcraft* was a major critical and commercial success upon its original release in 2004 and quickly became the most popular MMORPG of all time, reaching a peak of 12 million subscribers in 2010. The game had over one hundred million registered accounts by 2014 and by 2017, had grossed over $9.23 billion in revenue, making it one of the highest-grossing video game franchises of all time. The game has been cited by gaming journalists as the greatest MMORPG of all time and one of the greatest video games of all time and has also been noted for its long lifespan, continuing to receive developer support and expansion packs over 15 years since its initial release. In 2019, a vanilla version of the game titled *World of Warcraft Classic* was launched, allowing players to experience the base game before any of its expansions launched, with versions of *Classic* for the first and second expansions being released subsequently, with minor changes. In 2022, Blizzard and NetEase cancelled an unannounced *World of Warcraft* mobile spin-off game.

#### (Dragon Ball Vs Saint Seiya)

* They are both powerful, arrogant fighters who originate from iconic anime in the 1990's known for being absurdly broken in power.
* During their encounter with the main protagonists they were once opponents they quickly changed their ways due to their influences.
* Both had tragic events happened to them which was a reason why they became this way by a greater evil person who they would later beat/fight against (Freeza murdering the Saiyans and Ikki’s friend being killed)
* Both use inner energy for their attacks and are noted to be more rough and strikingly than the others, and have a iconic laser attack (Galick Gun/Final Flash and Hoyoku Tensho)

Tekken

***Tekken*** (Japanese: 鉄拳 literal translation: Tetsu no ken, "Iron Fist") is a Japanese media franchise centred on a series of fighting games developed and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment (formerly Namco). The franchise also includes film and print adaptations.

The main games in the series follow the events of the King of Iron Fist Tournament, hosted by the Mishima *Zaibatsu*, where players control a plethora of characters to win the tournament and gain control of the company; the conflict between the Mishima family serves as the main focus of the series' plot, while players explore other characters' motivations in aiming to control the *Zaibatsu*.

Gameplay focuses on hand-to-hand combat with an opponent, with the gameplay system including blocks, throws, escapes, and ground fighting. The series later introduced combos and special moves, with characters also able to stage break arenas. *Tekken* is noted as being one of the first fighting games at the time to use 3D animation.

Japanese video game developer Namco began the series in 1994, with the release of the self-titled first entry. As of 2017, it has nine additional entries, eight spin-off games, and has been adapted into three feature films and other media. *Tekken 2*, as well as the third game *Tekken 3*, are considered landmark titles; they received critical acclaim for their gameplay and more immersive experience. Subsequent titles have followed this concept and received generally positive critical responses.

The series has been universally acclaimed and commercially successful, having shipped over 55 million copies by 2023, making it the third best-selling fighting game franchise. The main series has been widely credited by critics and video game publications for raising the standards of fighting games and praised for its gameplay mechanics and replay value.
Toaru (Or the A Certain Series)

***Toaru*** (とある *lit. "A Certain"*?) or the ***Toaru* series** (とある「シリーズ」 *lit. "A Certain Series"*?) is the official Japanese shorthand used by *Dengeki* and others to refer to the whole *Toaru Majutsu no Index* franchise in promotional materials, articles, and interviews.

The plot is set in a world where humans called espers possess supernatural abilities. The light novels focus on Toma Kamijo, a young high school student in Academy City with the ability to cancel other espers' powers, as he encounters an English nun named Index. His ability, which allows him to cancel other powers by touching them, and his relationship with Index prove dangerous to other sorcerers and espers who wanted to discover the secrets behind him and Index, as well as the city.

Megumi Fushiguro Vs Tomioka Giyu

#### (Jujutsu Kaisen Vs Demon Slayer)

* Two male anime characters with dark hair and a cold personality despite being on the side of good and are very skilled swordsmen
* They hunt down regenerating monsters who feast on humanity (Cursed Spirits and Demons)
* They both hold titles of power (Grade 2 (arguably Grade 1) Sorcerer and Hashira)
* They both introduce the concept of their power systems to the main character (Itadori and Tanjiro) who are both deemed liabilities due to their relations to monsters (Itadori being sukuna’s vessel and Tanjiro’s sister being a demon). Both Megumi and Giyu end up trying to fight the main characters at this point, and afterwards direct them to be taught under their older, white haired sensei’s (Gojo and Urodaki) both of which hold/held powerful titles (Special Grade Sorcerer and Hashira)
* They both have pretty big fights where they and the main character team up to 2v1 a powerful opponent (Megumi and Itadori Vs Awasaka And Giyuu and Tanjiro Vs Akaza)
* They both end up with people close to them who inspired them into becoming Sorcerers/Demon Hunters dying which they blame themselves for to some extent (Sukuna using Megumi’s body and techniques to kill his sister which damaged Megumi’s soul beyond repair and Giyu blaming himself from running away from saving his close friends)
* Both have ways of dramatically increasing their fighting potency, however with deadly cost (Summoning Mahoraga would Kill Megumi and the Demon Slayer Mark Fates Giyu to die young)
* They both have great relationships and ties to their sister before their deaths (Megumi’s whole inspiration for being a sorcerer was to save his sister and Giyu’s sister died protecting him from demons)
* Both of the main characters seem to die in-front of them, when they both were fighting a powerful monster (The Finger Bearer and Muzan) however they come back and end up fighting Megumi and Giyu as a monster (Sukuna taking over and Tanjiro becoming a Demon) which they both manage to come back from and become human again
* They both end up in semi-serious, semi-friendly fights with their peers (Shinobu Kocho and Aoi Todo) who also hold great titles (Grade 1 Sorcerer and Hashira)
* Both are ambushed by a/all of the main antagonists while training with their peers in an arc (Kyoto Goodwill Arc and The Infinity Castle Arc) where they end up having to fight two powerful monsters (Hanami and Akaza) who are a part of groups (The Disaster Curses and The Uppermoons)
* They both end up beating previously known really powerful monsters fairly easily (The Finger Bearer and Lower Moon level fighters).

If my theory of how jujutsu kaisen ends comes true, they both fight the strongest, main antagonist together after both of them awakening (Sukuna and Muzan

### Fight Potential

There would have to be at least a brief scene of Megumi and Giyu coming to blows in a sword fight, with giyu getting a clear advantage, which makes megumi jump back and rely solely on the ten shadows. At this point, you can have an extremely creative fight between Megumi and all of his shikigami and Giyu with all of his different techniques
Undertaker Vs Itachi Uchiha

#### (WWE Vs Naruto)

* Both Killed their families, leaving only their younger brother alive (Sasuke and Kane).
* Those younger brothers were scarred, and found them, seeking revenge for their actions
* They helped form a group, whose goal was the destruction of the status quo, (Akatsuki and The Ministry of Darkness).
* It is later revealed to actually be working on behalf the establishment (The Corporation/Konoha)
* Despite tormenting their brothers, they still actually care for them and have saved them on a couple occasions
* Both were empowered by the death of someone they cared for (Mangekyou Sharingan and the Mystic Urn)
* Both have returned from death after being killed in a fight with their brothers
* Both also have a affinity for tricks and illusions, and wear stylish black coats
* Both are fan favorites in their communities and have a reputation of being unstoppable due to a part of their character (Itachi’s powerful illusions and Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak)
Yuta Okkotsu Vs Kamen Rider Revice

#### (Jujutsu Kaisen Vs Kamen Rider)

* Both suffered from a tragic violent accident as kids, in which their wish to save a loved one (Ikki’s mother and Rika) manifested as a demon that entered a contract with them for the sake of protection.
* At a much older age, both fight side by side with their demon partner, but can link with them directly to power up.
* You could also make an argument that the basic Vistamps purified from Deadman use are equivalent to the Cursed Tools Yuta uses (and thus also something Yuta could potentially copy with his Cursed Technique).
* There's also an interesting deeper aspect revolving around the idea of goals. Ikki willingly gave up his soccer dreams to take care of his family and their bathhouse so their goals could survive, but also considers himself “Japan’s number 1 busybody!” and had to learn to not solve other people’s problems for them. Yuta was too scared of hurting others and isolated himself in the process, until he was confronted for living without any goals of his own, which caused him to realize he desired to become a person that can help others out of danger and feels like he belongs (which is what Ikki originally wagered his entire self-worth on before Vice helped him balance things).
* This is also the foundation for the fact that while both partnerships grew to be loving, Yuta desires to set Rika free from the contract between them, whereas Ikki wants Vice and him to coexist.
Yuji Itadori

## Yuji Itadori (Jujutsu Kaisen)

**Yuji Itadori** (Japanese: 虎杖 悠仁, Hepburn: *Itadori Yūji*) is a fictional character and the main protagonist of the manga series *Jujutsu Kaisen* created by Gege Akutami. Yuji is a first-year Jujutsu Sorcerer at Tokyo Jujutsu High who is thrown into the world of sorcery after he ate a Cursed Object: a finger belonging to Ryomen Sukuna, a powerful Cursed Spirit—a being manifested from Cursed Energy from the negative emotions flowing from humans. With his classmates, Yuji exorcises Curses while trying to honor his grandfather's legacy and save others unconditionally so that when he is executed after eating all twenty fingers, he will not be alone in his death.

Throughout the series, Yuji and exceptional Cursed Techniques are developed as he faces down different Curses and the emotional blowback of his actions. Despite having only practiced using Cursed Energy for a few months, Yuji is tremendously powerful even without having become Sukuna's Vessel. Yuji believes strongly in the value of life and works to make sure everyone he meets, no matter how deep his connection to them may be, receives proper treatment.

In the anime adaptation of the manga, Yuji is voiced by Junya Enoki in Japanese and Adam McArthur in English. The character has been received positively by critics, with many praising his character development though some critics were divided if he is a proper unique *shōnen* protagonist.

Yuta Okkotsu

## Yuta Okkotsu (Jujutsu Kaisen)

**Yuta Okkotsu** (Japanese: 乙骨 憂太, Hepburn: *Okkotsu Yūta*) is the protagonist of Gege Akutami's manga *Jujutsu Kaisen 0*. Yuta Okkotsu is a teenager who is surrounded and helped by the Cursed Spirit of Rika Orimoto, his childhood friend who died six years before the story and is cursed because both of them promised to get married when they grow up. In November 2016, Yuta met Satoru Gojo, a Jujutsu Sorcerer under whose guidance he joined Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School to control Rika's Curse. Yuta also appears in the sequel *Jujutsu Kaisen* as an experienced warrior.

Akutami created Yuta alongside Rika before the creation of *Jujutsu Kaisen 0* as a duo who work together. He compared Yuta with the *Jujutsu Kaisen* protagonist Yuji Itadori, whose roles in the narratives are similar because having to deal with inner beings with different personalities. In the 2021 animated film adaptation of the manga, *Jujutsu Kaisen 0*, Yuta is voiced by Megumi Ogata in the Japanese version and Kayleigh McKee in the English version. Ogata's role was picked by Akutami himself, finding her ideal for the part, while McKee felt pressure over her work because of her lack of experience when the movie was dubbed.

Yuta was met with a positive response. Some critics found him more appealing than the protagonist Yuji Itadori due to their different powers and backstories. His appearance in *Jujutsu Kaisen* also surprised critics due to his changed traits. Additionally, Yuta has been a popular character within the series, appearing in marketing and polls. Ogata's and McKee's performances of Yuta also drew positive responses in the media.

Stain Vs Toji Fushiguro

* Katana wielding men who battle against the strongest beings in their worlds using their skill, their intelligence, and their vast assortment of weapons to make up for lacking power,
* Both of them begin their stories in the prequel-stories of new-gen anime/manga (My Hero Academia: Vigilantes and the Star Plasma Vessel Arc) where they are presented as ruthless killers (Stain being a killing antihero and Toji being an assassin,) often going up against powerful and high-profile targets (Sorcerers and Superpowered Criminals.),
* They both eventually had a run-in with powerful figures within their worlds, a Sorcerer and a former-Hero turned Vigilante, Satoru Gojo and Knuckleduster, people who ended up defeating them and in the process taking off a bodypart....kinda (Knuckleduster fucking Stain's-nose's ever living shit up, forcing Stain to eventually take the thing off completely, and Gojo obliterating Toji's arm with Hollow Purple and then proceeding to obliterate his, ya know, life.),
* Both of them did battle against multiple incredibly skilled and powerful sorcerers/heroes who where aiming to protect a person from them, (Todoroki, Izuku and Iida trying to protect Native from Stain, and Geto and Gojo trying to protect Amanai from Toji,) including a particularly powerful person who at the time was inexperienced due to their age but would go on to be the strongest character in the series. (Gojo and Deku),
* Both of them where taken out of the story via death/believed-death (The media believing Stain had died from internal bleeding and Toji actually dying,) however they where brought back into the story later (Stain escaping his prison confinement in Tartarus, and Toji being recarnated into Takuma's body due to Ogami's Seance.)
* This leads them to meeting up with someone important to them (Megumi and All Might,) after which they once again leave the story (Toji killing himself and Stain just....disappearing),
* Both of them fight using their incredible skill and intelligence, due to the fact that their powers are rather lacking.
* They don't have the crazy powers of characters like Deku or Gojo, so they rely on more mundane sources of power like weapons from their vast and incredible arsenal, usually bladed weapons like their katanas and knives.
* Despite this, they do still have some supernatural ability, a grotesque one at that which involves them ingesting something (Stain being able to lick people's blood to paralyse them, and Toji having a Cursed Spirit that stores weapons inside of it for him that Toji can also ingest to hide from people.),
* Both of them also earned titles of "\_\_\_\_\_ killer" (Hero Killer and Sorcerer Killer)
Thanos

## Thanos (Marvel Comics)

**Thanos** is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer-artist Jim Starlin, the character first appeared in *The Invincible Iron Man* #55 (cover date February 1973). An Eternal–Deviant warlord from the moon Titan, Thanos is regarded as one of the most powerful beings in the Marvel Universe. He has clashed with many heroes including the Avengers, the Guardians of the Galaxy, the Fantastic Four, the Eternals, and the X-Men.

In creating Thanos, Starlin drew inspiration from Jack Kirby's *New Gods* series for DC Comics, particularly the character of Darkseid. Thanos is usually portrayed as a villain, although many stories depict him as believing his actions to be justified. Perhaps the character's best-known storyline is *The Infinity Gauntlet* (1991), the culmination of several story arcs that see him gather the six Infinity Gems and use them to kill half of the universe's population, including many of its heroes, to woo Mistress Death, the living embodiment of death in the Marvel Universe. Although these events were later undone, the storyline has remained one of the most popular published by Marvel.

Debuting in the Bronze Age of comic books, the character has appeared in almost five decades of Marvel publications, as well as many media adaptations, including animated television series and video games.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the character was first played by Damion Poitier in the film *The Avengers* (2012) and then by Josh Brolin in *Guardians of the Galaxy* (2014), *Avengers: Age of Ultron* (2015), *Avengers: Infinity War* (2018), *Avengers: Endgame* (2019), and the first season of the animated series *What If...?* (2021).

The Terminator

***The Terminator*** is a 1984 American science fiction action film directed by James Cameron. It stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Terminator, a cybernetic assassin sent back in time from 2029 to 1984 to kill Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton), whose unborn son will one day save mankind from extinction by Skynet, a hostile artificial intelligence in a post-apocalyptic future. Kyle Reese (Michael Biehn) is a soldier sent back in time to protect Sarah. The screenplay is credited to Cameron and producer Gale Anne Hurd, while co-writer William Wisher Jr. received an "additional dialogue" credit.

Cameron devised the premise of the film from a fever dream he experienced during the release of his first film, *Piranha II: The Spawning* (1982), in Rome, and developed the concept in collaboration with Wisher. He sold the rights to the project to fellow New World Pictures alumna Hurd on the condition that she would produce the film only if he were to direct it; Hurd eventually secured a distribution deal with Orion Pictures, while executive producers John Daly and Derek Gibson of Hemdale Film Corporation were instrumental in setting up the film's financing and production. Originally approached by Orion for the role of Reese, Schwarzenegger agreed to play the title character after befriending Cameron. Filming, which took place mostly at night on location in Los Angeles, was delayed because of Schwarzenegger's commitments to *Conan the Destroyer* (1984), during which Cameron found time to work on the scripts for *Rambo: First Blood Part II* (1985) and *Aliens* (1986). The film's special effects, which included miniatures and stop-motion animation, were created by a team of artists led by Stan Winston and Gene Warren Jr.

Defying low pre-release expectations, *The Terminator* topped the United States box office for two weeks, eventually grossing $78.3 million against a modest $6.4 million budget. It is credited with launching Cameron's film career and solidifying Schwarzenegger's status as a leading man. The film's success led to a franchise consisting of several sequels, a television series, comic books, novels and video games. In 2008, *The Terminator* was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Film Registry.

Star Fox

***Star Fox*** is an arcade style rail shooter and third person action-adventure video game series created by Shigeru Miyamoto, produced and published by Nintendo. The games follow the Star Fox combat team of anthropomorphic animals, led by chief protagonist Fox McCloud. Gameplay involves many adventures around the Lylat planetary system in the futuristic Arwing fighter aircraft, in other vehicles, and on foot. The original *Star Fox* (1993) is a forward-scrolling 3D rail shooter, but later games add more directional freedom.

The first game in the series, developed by Nintendo EAD and programmed by Argonaut Software, uses the Super FX Chip to create the first hardware-accelerated 3D gaming experience on a home console. The Super FX Chip is a math co-processor built into the cartridge to help the Super NES render graphics. Super FX has been used in other Super NES games, some with increased processing speed. Its reboot, *Star Fox 64*, is the first Nintendo 64 game with Rumble Pak support.

Due to perceived issues with the German company StarVox, *Star Fox* and *Star Fox 64* were released in PAL region territories as *Starwing* and *Lylat Wars* respectively. However, as of *Star Fox Adventures*, Nintendo uses the same name globally.

**World Wrestling Entertainment** (**WWE**) is an American professional wrestling promotion. It is owned and operated by TKO Group Holdings, a majority-owned subsidiary of Endeavor Group Holdings. A global integrated media and entertainment company, WWE has also branched out into fields outside of wrestling, including film, football, and various other business ventures. The company is additionally involved in licensing its intellectual property to companies to produce video games and action figures.

The promotion was founded in 1953 as the Capitol Wrestling Corporation (CWC), a Northeastern territory of the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA). Following a dispute, CWC left the NWA and became the **World Wide Wrestling Federation** (WWWF) in April 1963. After rejoining the NWA in 1971, the WWWF was renamed to the **World Wrestling Federation** (WWF) in 1979 before the promotion left the NWA for good in 1983. In 2002, following a legal dispute with the World Wildlife Fund, the WWF was renamed to **World Wrestling Entertainment** (WWE). In 2011, the promotion ceased branding itself as World Wrestling Entertainment and began solely branding itself with the initials **WWE**.

WWE is the largest wrestling promotion in the world. Its main roster is divided into two brands, Raw and SmackDown, along with a developmental roster, NXT, based in the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida. Overall, WWE is available in more than one billion homes worldwide in 30 languages. The company's global headquarters is located in Stamford, Connecticut, with offices in New York, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Mumbai, Shanghai, Singapore, Dubai, and Munich.
Sonic

## Sonic The Hedgehog (Sonic The Hedgehog)

**Sonic the Hedgehog** is a fictional character created by Naoto Ohshima and Yuji Naka. The title character of Sega's *Sonic the Hedgehog* video game franchise, Sonic is an anthropomorphic blue hedgehog who can run at supersonic speeds and curl into a ball to attack enemies. He races through levels, collecting power-up rings and avoiding obstacles, as he seeks to defeat the mad scientist Doctor Eggman.

Sonic made a cameo appearance in the arcade game *Rad Mobile* (1990) before making his full debut in *Sonic the Hedgehog*, released for the Sega Genesis in 1991. Ohshima designed Sonic to provide Sega with a mascot to rival Nintendo's flagship character Mario and used the character to flesh out a prototype programmed by Naka. Sonic was redesigned by Yuji Uekawa for *Sonic Adventure* (1998), with a more mature look designed to appeal to older players.

Sonic is one of the world's best-known video game characters and a gaming icon. His series had sold more than 80 million copies by 2011.

Warframe

***Warframe*** is a free-to-play action role-playing third-person shooter multiplayer online game developed and published by Digital Extremes. First released for Windows personal computers in March 2013, it was later ported to PlayStation 4 in November 2013, Xbox One in September 2014, Nintendo Switch in November 2018, PlayStation 5 in November 2020, and Xbox Series X/S in April 2021. Support for cross-platform play was released in 2022. Cross-save, as well as ports to mobile devices, is planned for early 2024 .

In *Warframe*, players control members of the Tenno, a race of ancient warriors who have awoken from centuries of suspended animation far into Earth's future to find themselves at war with different factions in the Origin System. The Tenno use their powered Warframes along with a variety of weapons and abilities to complete missions. While many of the game's missions use procedurally-generated levels, it also includes large open world areas similar to other massively multiplayer online games, as well as some story-specific missions with fixed level design. The game includes elements of shooting and melee games, parkour, and role-playing to allow players to advance their Tenno with improved gear. The game includes both player versus environment and player versus player elements. It is supported by microtransactions, which lets players purchase in-game items using money but also offers the option to earn them at no cost through grinding.

The concept for *Warframe* originated in 2000, when Digital Extremes began work on a new game titled *Dark Sector*. At the time, the company had been successful in supporting other developers and publishers and wanted to develop its game in-house. *Dark Sector* suffered several delays and was eventually released in 2008, having used some of the initial framework but far different from the original plan. By 2012, in the wake of the success of free-to-play games, the developers took their earlier *Dark Sector* ideas and art assets and incorporated them into a new project, their self-published *Warframe*.

Initially, the growth of *Warframe* was slow, hindered by moderate critical reviews and low player counts. Since its release, the game has experienced positive growth. The game is one of Digital Extremes' most successful titles, seeing nearly 50 million registered players by 2019.
Thimble Theatre

## Thimble Theatre/Popeye

Segar's ***Thimble Theatre*** debuted in the *New York Journal* on December 19, 1919. The paper's owner, William Randolph Hearst, also owned King Features Syndicate, which syndicated the strip. *Thimble Theatre* was intended as a replacement for *Midget Movies* by Ed Wheelan (Wheelan having recently resigned from King Features). While initially failing to attract a large audience, the strip nonetheless increasingly accumulated a modest following as the 1920s continued. At the end of its first decade, the strip resultantly appeared in over a dozen newspapers and had acquired a corresponding Sunday strip (which had debuted on January 25, 1925, within the Hearst-owned *New York American* paper).
The Batman Who Laughs Vs Dreadpool

#### (DC Comics Vs Marvel Comics)

* They’re both famous comic book characters from alternate universes to the main one, who after a run-in with a villain (Joker for BWL and Psycho Man for Dreadpool), become corrupted and have only one goal: the absolute annihilation of all superhumans.
* After killing the villains whom transformed them, they actually succeed in conquering/destroying their respective universes, and moved on to other universes to do the same. However they were later defeated by either the villains who transformed them into a villain (BWL got beat by the main Joker) or an alternate version of them (Dreadpool got killed by the OG Deadpool).
* Both have also implanted their brains into the bodies of others and commanded teams of alternate versions of themselves (BWL led the group known as the Dark Knights, while Dreadpool led the Deadpool Corps).
* They also contrast in their personalities; Bruce went from his usual stoic and serious Batman persona to the more chaotic and murderous BWL behavior. Deadpool started from his comedic, funny and hardly serious behavior, to the always serious, grimm, and frankly depressing Dreadpool.
Zuko Vs Shoto Todoroki

#### (Avatar: The Last Airbender Vs My Hero Academia)

* They are both teenage fire manipulators with scars on their left eyes caused by their parent(s), mainly their father (Zuko's father, Ozai, burned Zuko's face for refusing to fight him in an Agni Kai duel, while Todoroki's mother, Rei, spilled boiling water on Todoroki's face out of madness inflicted by the abuses of his father, Endeavor), giving them father issues which made them go on a difficult quest, motivated by their fathers in opposite ways (Zuko went on a mission to capture the Avatar in order to regain his honor and gain approval from Ozai, while Todoroki wanted to prove that he can be the No. 1 Hero without using his the fire side of his Quirk in order to spite Endeavor) whilst their mothers were removed from their lives.
* Both were introduced on opposing sides of their series' main protagonists (Aang and Izuku Midoriya, respectively) who are inheritors of a power passed on from a heroic legacy for generations (Aang is the Avatar while Izuku is the latest bearer of One for All) before joining their side.
* Both also hail from upper-class families and are able to manipulate another element besides fire (lightning and ice, respectively).
* Both of their fathers are capable of manipulating fire like them, were driven by envy of someone in a position of great prestige and had ambitions to usurp them (Ozai sought to usurp his older brother Iroh as the crown prince of the Fire Nation, while Endeavor sought to surpass the No. 1 Hero, All Might), and married their wives for the sake of breeding powerful heirs (Ozai married Ursa, a descendant of Avatar Roku, in order to marry into the bloodline of the Avatar, while Endeavor married Rei, who had the Frost Quirk, hoping to raise a child who would inherit both their quirks and surpass All Might).
* Both also have evil, cunning, but mentally unstable siblings who can use blue flames (Azula and Dabi, respectively).
* Both were perceived in contrasting ways by their fathers, as Zuko was the un-favourite child of Ozai, who favored Azula because of her firebending prowess, while Todoroki was favoured by Endeavor over his other siblings because he had the best potential to surpass All Might.
Wolverine Vs Raiden

#### (Marvel Comics Vs Metal Gear)

* They are both anti-heroes known for their immense deadliness and preference for blades.
* Both are soldiers who have been in war for most of their lives and were subjects of government experiments in which their memories were altered and they were empowered by being given a metal body in order to become a powerful weapon (an Adamantium skeleton and a cyborg body, respectively).
* They also have an additional mindset that makes them more vicious and allows full use of their strength in battle (Berserker Rage and Ripper Mode, respectively).
* Both also have had a love interest named Rose (Rose O'Hara and Rosemary, respectively) at some point in their life, and a history of battling giant, advanced machines of war (Sentinels and Metal Gears, respectively).
* At some point in their stories, both would obtain possession of a powerful red katana with similar names, given to them by other highly skilled swordsmen in their universes (the Muramasa Blade given by the swordsmith of the same name and the High-Frequency Murasama Blade given by Jetstream Sam, respectively).
