Death Battle - Analyzing weapons, armor, and skills on the Internet since 2010.

Probably because of what @umseriously said: it’s just seen an excuse to shit on Light Yagami and his worldview, which is also what Near did in the warehouse.

Also, there’s a nonzero chance that the episode would come across as somebody’s Death Note fanfiction, where another fictional detective tries to solve the Kira case, and I guess that doesn’t really interest a lot of people.

Or it could be a simple idea that the battle of wits that Death Note is, along with the murder mystery howcatchem format of Columbo isn’t a good fit for Death Battle.
I think people are looking too deep into it. Just seems like a goofy meme episode from the premise.

Also, Ruby/Maka got delayed to the 21st.

It is probably just people taking this too seriously, but apparently folks take this stuff pretty seriously. Even ITT you got folks upset that we have Columbo instead of Kira vs Heisenberg .
Also, Ruby/Maka got delayed to the 21st.

This is the second time in a row a battle got delayed.* At what point do you ask “what’s going on?”

*Assuming this in fact a delay of course. For all we know, this is part of them hyping up the episode after the character previews.

They got Casey Lee Williams to be on the track for Ruby vs Maka.

Happy 200 Episodes.

This is the first matchup this year where I simply could not care less who wins. A shame it had to be the Halloween episode where that happened.

All I know about Buffy is that she is a canon sex offender, and her show allowed Whedon to indirectly ruin western entertainment. Fortunately it doesn't look like she has much over blade's spider-man scaling.
 

And in other news, Goku vs Superman 2 has been unlisted. Not much of a surprise since Ben’s gone on record that he regretted it and thought it was a mistake.

I think you’re slightly off. IIRC, Ben’s issue was that ScrewAttack promoted it as a rematch of the two, when it was just meant to cover stuff that had to be cut from the first GvS and cover the then brand new Super Saiyan God/Blue forms. Still regret, but I’m kind of surprised it took this long to do this.
