A fun fact not many people seem to realize: Sun Wukong is actually *not* the main character. Only serving that role for the first few chapters. He actually spends most of the story *saving* the main character.

Narrator: Sun Wukong emerged victorious! "Really?" *Heracles gets vaporized* "Really?" *Ten seconds later, our reactor finally rose her hands in victory. In spite of her second-guessing herself, she had chosen... wisely.*

19:09. “You’re being dramatic”. In the book. Wukong has sensitive hearing. And is weak to high frequencies. This is one of three things that can completely stop Wukong in his tracks. The other two being Poison and True Fire. (True Fire is a Buddhist flame. It’s a lot to talk about. But basically. It can kill anyone. No matter how Immortal you are.)

Yeah, Hercules may be a god of strength but Sun Wukong is on a whole new level of OP bullshit

It's kinda cool that Wukong inspired some of the biggest names in anime, and is still stronger than all of them

Boomstick: "Okay we got a headstrong goofball, who quickly mastered new powers and wants a fancy title; this is just Shonen anime"

"You're being dramatic." Uh, yeah. Have you met Sun Wukong? He is drama.

"Monke always emerges victorious." -Sun Tzu, Art of War

Heavens equal is quite literally an accurate title for him, since he can fight the entire heaven by himself, and any heaven at that, probably could fought the whole of Olympus and still win,

Boomstick: "Let's answer the real question: can he beat Goku?" Wiz: "Uh, maybe"

Do you know what's scary? The art of 72 transformations wukong can do doesn't give him 72 transformations, it gives him the ability of BOUNDLESS transformation. He can turn into ANYTHING except anything omnipotent, this includes a version of himself as powerful as any opponent he is fighting, yea... Sun wukong is broken. And the 72 things? The 72 represents the number of extra lives the ability gives. On top of all his layers of immortality, you have to somehow kill the monkey 72 times before he croaks. And he can multiply with each clone also being able to transform the same way. TLDR: sun wukong is the embodiment of a BROKEN character.

If you’re interested in learning more on mythology, I recommend Overly Sarcastic Productions’ videos. They’re little animated/illustrated versions of different myths from Greece, Rome, China, Japan, Norse, and even one or two from North America.

I have to say this Death Battle is quite informative, especially with some info we don't know about the two mythical icons.

I hope this means we can see more mythological battles in the future. Odin vs Zeus would be so cool.

"You're being dramatic" Yeah, cuz having your eardrums exploding is very plesent

Guess you could say the Hero went back to Zero.

Got to love how they left out all of the incest in Heracles’s story. Zeus is the great grandfather to his mom. His most popular gay lover is his nephew who was the one that suggested cauterizing the Hydra. (Heracles was bi.) And his fourth wife is his sister and also the daughter to his archenemy Hera. Also the king he worked for was his cousin. Not incest but just goes to show how much family drama he goes through.

A narration for a legendary battle of mythical beings seems fitting.

My money is on Monkey. He basically has cartoon physics and cant die. Plus he's fxxxing awesome. I killed Hercules in God of War 3 and he went out like a bxxxx

Amber: Did you just pull that out of your ear you nasty? Me: Well yeah that is how Sun Wukong keeps his staff at he first shrinks it then he puts it in his ear if he wants to use it he pulls it out of his ear and turns it back to it's normal size. what I just said is true.

Top 5 Death Battle ever in my view. Wow. What a battle

18:12- Sun Wukong keeps his over 17,000 pound staff tucked behind his ear.

I hope we get more Mythological Death battles

In all fairness, this battle was a complete stomp. Wukong outclasses Herc in every way.

"Great Sage Equal to Heaven" damn what a title "Victorious Fighting Buddha" I swear whats next Great Buddha equal to everything?

They overestimated the Hydra blood and bells. Herc never had a chance.

The Monkey King/God is ridiculous.

The reason so many things you know from RWBY is in this is cause sun from RWBY is meant to be the monkey king from journey to the west the Chinese myth

Huh, Chinese Mythology sure goes into wild places, huh?

did you know that Ruyi Jingu Bang can fight it own and yes, Wukong stored his staff in his ear.

23:25 technically the predator is just a hunter hunting Hunan’s and having trophies and doesn’t get paid they just do it for the hunt

I understand Wu Kong more than Hercules + 13:32 Fun fact : an antagonist from the Dr Strange movie

Not bad for their first full-mythological fight. Also I’m pretty sure they used RWBY Sun’s VA for Wukong in this fight. I mean, it’d be so obvious.

Sun wukong is my favorite myth ever.

This was a good video It was interesting to see two Mythical Figures fighting instead of Fictional characters and as for the next Battle while Boba Fett Is a Bounty Hunter The predators are Game Hunters who Kill for Sport and Trophy while Boba does it for Money so it’s actually the battle of Space Hunters.

"History was never my best subject" Me: Me too kid, Me too

This episode was on my birthday! It was the best gift I ever got in!

So because of this episode, Cthulhu is now a valid death battle fight.

16:33 She set herself up for pain on that one.

When I saw the last DB episode, I was convinced it would be Sun for RWBY. But maybe someday he get a DB after Rubys DB.

Journey to the West is like a dnd campaign set in mythical ancient China

Wukong wasn’t MONKING around

KUDO's AMBER !! congrats!😀 , also i hope your hand is ok, and i like the orang screen you put up , before starting the DB vid .

To be fair, the Predators aren't simple bounty hunters.

A neat take on Death Battle, since actual myths and legends are kind of unconfirmable and exaggerated because... you know... myths with origins thousands of years ago. Feats back then were based on beliefs back then, so Hercules 'shooting the sun' wasn't a distance as modern astronomy knows it, but as they 'understood' it then. It would still be fast AF, but not to the 90x faster then light. But that bit of bias is kind of expected with DB in applying factor X outside of the scenarios. Still a fun match with the next being the man (or sentient) hunters.

3:14 Puns. Never change, Boomstick. 8:41 Monkey King face. XD 9:02 Sun Wukong 9:50 Sun Wukong doing a copy the opponent before Ditto is created. LOL 13:30 Yeah, doesn't work for Boomstick. Sun Wukong is that OP character you tried to ban at tournaments. But, somehow gets back in the game. Ironic the Saiyans are not based off the Monkey King. They also get stronger by always learning and training new abilities or techniques to overcome obstacles through every battle or situations.

I love the green screen background

Then, Heracles fights Goku to see if he can beat him.

This was like The Flash vs Quicksilver, like the The Flash, Sun Wukong how an easy win

Basically Sun Wukong is an OP Japanese Loki.

I am having good streak wins, I only lost one time so far this season

"History was never my best subject" - well that's OK, because this is mythology, not history. Wukong didn't pull the staff out of his ear, he pulled it from BEHIND his ear. he usually carried it there, shrunk to the size of a needle, when he didn't need it.

I mean... considering Goku is based on and even has the *same name* as Sun Wukong’s Japanese name it should be obvious Wukong would win, or if not at least a tie.

please react to OSP's journey to the west, it's basically a refresher on Monkey King

Milky Way bars are alright. Nothing I'd go crazy for.

Awesome reaction Amber. And I loved this fight. And I'm hyped for Boba Fett vs. The Predator.

@Freelancer Amber, actually Amber, Sun Wukong actually shrinks his staff down to the size of a pencil and has it rest like a pencil behind your ear.

The Pokémon, Infernape is also inspired by Sun Wukong.

I was right Sun Wukong won

Winning streak? More like lucky streak. It always runs out. Just wait.

I should point out that Heracles was murdered by his third wife as punishment for being unfaithful.

Beautiful

1:32 THAT'S LITERALLY ME XD

Hercules is the ROMAN name. Heracles is the Greek name.

New background and set up nice

Hello so great to be here 💖

Hi Freelancer Amber, I don't know but you've already released the first 3 episodes of RWBY Ice Queendom, and when are you going to make a reaction video of this anime?

That’s a new setup for you

Minor correction. Hercules is the *Roman* name. Not Greek. Heracles is in fact the correct Greek name.

MY BOY MONKEEE :3 GO BOBA FETT Well done Amber, you are sooo prettty ^^

First time with actually Mythical people. She confirms Chuck Norris vs Segata Sanshiro was real and legit.

I want an ashura match up

I hope your ready for the battle of hunters cause it's going to be good. letting you know it looks like a close fight for one to win or the other cause we a getting fights like this lately. As we all know cause fights can go either way like a slight close of victory. As I said hope your ready to cheer or cry in the end and also to react cause I like the look of others to see how they are shock. be ready and I'll be waiting for you to watch it. bye till now.

Wow, that's new.😯

No Sun keeps the staff behind his ear not in it.

Boba fett vs predator came out

The monkey king is immortal

Glad you won.... even i had hard time but glad i pick mk.....1 he is equally strong and more faster and versitile....2 mk is just more lovable...both are arogant but mk makes me laugh....as for next fight...most likely battle of hunters using advance tools

Predators probably got that one

It’s Herc-U-Les not Hera-Cles

Good jod!

22:51 did she not notice the pun Boomstick make or did she just not care Edit Boomstick made autocorrect is useless 90 percent and actually useful 10 percent of the time It does it’s job when I don’t want it to and doesn’t work when I don’t want it to f&$k your autocorrect When I do how does do get autocorrected with don’t

A rock beats The Rock.

Yo amber stop changing your answer when it comes who would win death battle

heracless would beat about 98% of mythologies, it sure make him seem invincible but there a few who would beat him.. sun wu kong is one of them, and maybe the strongest of them.

sun wukong is immortal times 7 and also hercules is barely immortal he had to do a bunch of things and hercules mom was a mortal fun fact

3rd time the fett is back and ready to become the king

You Should Watch Lego Monkie Kid is Awesome.

Hercules & Sun Wukong are fictional characters like Batman, Goku, Steven Universe & Ruby Rose nothing new from what Death Battle usually does. They all need research and knowledge of the character’s lore

Correction Herakles is the Greek name Hercules is the Roman name and Hercules or Herakles is not even his real name the name he got and him before the goddess To protect listeners who wanted to kill him because he was the result of her husband's infidelity I don't mean the only result of Zeus well let's take it active love life but I mean let's most famous Greek Roman heroes and also a hero for the gays and by that I mean both men and women and no I don't say lesbians and gays because they're both the same thing then why should I be a use an extra word where even a single word is exact itself results in us achieved well it doesn't matter Heracles also slept with his nephews and yes it was completely normal for ancient Greece I refer to them by my Spartan history but apart from that the two also had a temple where same sex couples could go and yes This whole Gelbfried number is not a modern invention, it also existed in ancient times That's why I always find it funny when they talk about a breakthrough in connection with gay pride what a breakthrough because please someone the breakthrough people hundreds of years ago had thousands of years my god you are the right pioneers That's like saying we introduced the working sewage system, the Romans did that too, we brought hot water to the cities, animals too we founded the first fire brigade. Kaiser Nero has already done that after half the city burned down for which was not present he only appeared in Rum when his palace was in danger but he e.g. for fire safety and cared about after a fire by introducing minimum distances for houses and other regulations that I remember this no hero has not been his fault What I find very funny about Nero is that the Romans refer to him in the Bible as the beast with the number 666and that's funny the early christians could always portray that in their book as a devilish monster by the way you're not so sure if he also set the city on fire, personally I'm still betting on the Christians because even then people were preaching about the end of the world and I mean what better way to substantiate that than when one of the largest cities in the ancient world begins to become a focal point nothing and also the later Christians built St. Peter's Basilica and in its decoration of the domusaurier the golden house that Nero built and you can well and gladly called a kind of art center and park can be inspired what do you understand demonizing a man first and then being inspired by his buildings that's fine but yes I've been deviating from the topic for far too long now I just found it interesting

It's pronounced 'Her-cu-lees'

boba needs to win

I like the battle but I disliked the narration anyone else

sun is the only good character in rwby

Nope kratos kill hercules
