Humiliating Beatdowns

[SAMAS]

I figured for my first thread, I'd try something a little different: Name some matches that would end in a humiliating defeat for the loser.

Wait, wait, hold on a second. Now I don't mean "Humiliating" as in "Utter Curbstomp", although it can include that.

By "Humiliating", I mean that, in the sense that, if the loser were to wake up afterwards, their first reaction would be: "I got beat by WHAT!?!"

I mean something like: A Battletech Mechwarrior (or any mecha pilot, really), getting on the receiving end of this. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpbIO9Q17lY)

[Tengu]

Are all attacks in Super Robot Wars so long?

And I think that any "Care Bears vs X" fights would count. Because Care Bears were proven on these boards to be impossible to beat, and really - how can you have any dignity left after getting your ass handled by them?

Also, in Guilty Gear, if you fight May or Bridget you are already on a lost position no matter of the outcome - if you win, you are cruel for beating up a kid, if you lose, you lost to a kid.

[SAMAS]

Are all attacks in Super Robot Wars so long?

Only the really big ones. And it depends. The Twin Bird Strike (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oFwlTQUJqI&NR=1), for example, is only half as long. I think the Royal Heart Breaker is the longest out of the Hero Mecha.

[Rutee]

All ultimate techniques are about that long, but most attacks are usually pretty short.

Edit: Oh snap. Given that Ryusei's dumped Lat for Mai, I think it's safe to assume that the pair are going to be lovers now.

[Tengu]

Okay... do you have links to any Eva final attacks, so I could get a fanboygasm? Because I'm already close. Mecha are cool.

[Rutee]

Unsurprisingly, powerred by Bounce..

[SurlySeraph]

There was a UFC fight I saw where one of the fighters immediately hit his opponent with a jumping knee strike and knocked him right out. The fight was over in less than 10 seconds. I imagine the guy waking up half an hour later and asking when the match was going to start.

Outside the real world, well...

Well, I got beat to that one.

But speaking of humiliating:

[SAMAS]

I almost forgot: Perhaps the only Super Robot Wars attack more humiliating than the Royal Heart Breaker!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-AOn7oOuwI

[tyckspoon]

They made Dance Like You Want To Win a usable combo attack. That's awesome.. also, although I think the art also.. um, 'inflated' Asuka and Rei a little, there's surprisingly little bounce.

[Rutee]

I know you're not disrespecting Bonta-kun with that remark..

Bleh, youtube works slowly for me again, it will take ages to watch those three last movies!

I find chibi mecha extremely hilarious, though. Pity I don't have a PS2.

There's GBA ones you can steal. I strongly recommend J, even if Fury Tech is powerred by bounce (Not /just/ breasts, but bounce), and R. Fiona's got an adorable character design, and more importantly, Martian Successor Nadesico, Gear Fighter Dendoh, G Gundam, and the glorious cheesetasticness that is Daitarn 3. And Gai lives!

[Mr._Blinky]

That is the most...horrifying...game I have ever seen.:smalleek:

[Poison_Fish]

How about This? (http://youtube.com/watch?v=AzMETSlu46g)

I'd feel bad by loosing to Menchi.

[Tengu]

Is there a mecha they do not have in those games?

[Rutee]

I take offense to that!

ZANKANTOU! Ikki Tousen! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lV1uCdfK1tE&feature=related)


Is there a mecha they do not have in those games?

Lots. But we've never heard of them. If it's famous, it's in SRW. They even have Tekkaman Blade (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xle-b-H5Ktg&feature=related).

[Shraik]

Thrawn Defeated by The Joker. I am sorry, But no matter how good a tactician, you will almost never find a way to predict what the Joker will do. It would be a fight, that either could win easily. Thrawn could catch on, but really, it would be a classic fight between to foil characters.

[Darth Mario]

I'm going to nominate Squirrel Girl vs. X, for her unbreakable plot armor and the "I got beat by WHAT!?!?" factor that comes from being defeated by someone who's power is to control a bunch of grey super-furry rodents.

It would drive anyone nuts! *dodges thrown acorns*

[tyckspoon]

Is there a mecha they do not have in those games?

Oh, yes, several. It gets harder to find them with each new game, but there still are mech series that are too obscure for even SRW. There's also the newer series that haven't been represented yet, but those don't count because there's no way they're not going to be in an SRW as soon as possible (like every new Gundam series and Gurren Lagann.)

[Tengu]

Hmm, do they have Canti? He is a very borderline example though, because he's barely larger than a human and can move on his own, without Naota. But who knows...

Sorry for the people who actually post on-topic. I'll try next time, too.

[Rutee]

Don't lie.

And no, Canti isn't. Tekkaman Blade is something of a special place. Generally, SRWs really only use Mecha anime characters, not Toku or Metal Hero types..

[Tengu]

I mean FLCL's Canti. This one:

http://images.elfwood.com/fanq/j/e/jette2/canti.jpg

Duh, on topic! Powerful alien invaders being defeated by a soldier sneezing on one of them seems like a pretty humiliating scenario... and it actually happened.

[Pronounceable]

I nominate Bugs.

Sauron, Elminster, God Emperor of Mankind, Songoku... You name it, Bugs beats it.

[Rutee]

Sauron, Elminster, God Emperor of Mankind, Songoku... You name it, Bugs beats it.

Not true. Bugs bunny can lose to a Gremlin, or a Tortoise.

[Cubey]

That is the most...awesome...game I have ever seen.:smalleek:

Fixed. If WH40K is the total awesome concentrated for grim and gritty Sci-fi fanboys, who just have to headbang after each turn to burn energy (otherwise they'd burst into fire themselves), then THIS is WH40K's equivalent for mecha fanboys.

Now, as for beatdowns... it doesn't top Care Bears, but I still can't forget the memorable scene when, near the start of FF VI, Narche's defenders unleash a pack of wild, ferocious beasts on unconscious Terra - only to see these beasts beaten to death by little fluffly white cat-things that say "kupo". The beating included paintbrushes, boomerangs and flails. Oh, and impaling on spears.

[AslanCross]

I think this (http://youtube.com/watch?v=1t_dsuTvJ8A) falls into the category of "utter curbstomp." I mean, he tried really really hard. But he failed.

Okay. This makes FF VII's Supernova look like a finger poke. The movie would cook my brain but, fortunately, I am immune.

This brings to mind an interesting discussion between me and a college buddy as I was playing Guilty Gear. I was experimenting with all the characters' instant kills in training mode, and had just blown someone away with Bridget's Shoot the Moon.

<Guy> Oooh. Panty shot.
<Me> Uh. Dude, that's a guy.
<Guy> ...wtf? Uh, "Oooh, brief shot!" then? :smalleek:

Anyway, here's (http://youtube.com/watch?v=au-gjIC7cJo) another "destroy the heavens" SRW boss attack video.

As for truly embarrassing, I'd be embarrassed too if I got creamed by a 12-year old girls' gymnastics routine called "The Nutcracker. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=-Cl4yAd05sk)"

Getting beaten by this (http://youtube.com/watch?v=duYGLaJzYxw), on the other hand, would be embarassing for pretty much anyone. (It's a giant robot-sized mechanical girl, basically. You don't want to know why it was made.)

[tyckspoon]

Valsione's actually really powerful and more importantly uses respectable weapons (swords, guns, giant Kamehameha-style energy beams..) I think it's gotta be way more humiliating to get taken down by ribbon-twirling.

[Fri]

I almost forgot: Perhaps the only Super Robot Wars attack more humiliating than the Royal Heart Breaker!

Okay. Now THAT'S humiliating.

Almost as humiliating as beaten by Ewoks.

Yes, I'm ashamed that nobody posted that yet. Ewok.

At least Bonta Kun is actually a highly advanced armored suit.

[AslanCross]

Well, Valsione really is powerful. Just that her/its comical appearance might be unnerving for the typical grunt pilot. (On the other hand, others consider piloting a giant girl mecha to be their greatest fantasy. :smalleek: )

[Fri]

A non SRW version of bonta kun's awesomeness.

If beaten by that suit is not a humiliating beatdown, I don't know what is. Watch until the last part, where a team of Bonta Kun swarmed the bad guys' lair with Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Squad effectivity.

Too bad it didn't show the news excerpt about SWAT team using that suit with great result.

[Fri]

I don't know why I forgot to post this.

There's even a more humiliating defeat, much more than defeated by ewok, bonta kun, or squirrels.

How would you feel, if your entire spacefaring, proud warrior race is challenged by a species of basically unintelligent fuzzy furball with cute cooing voice?

Yes, The Tribbles from Star Trek. If I'm not wrong, Enterprise did defeated a klingon ship by sending tribbles onto them. Really a fate worse than death.

Fiona's got an adorable character design, and more importantly, Martian Successor Nadesico, Gear Fighter Dendoh, G Gundam, and the glorious cheesetasticness that is Daitarn 3. And Gai lives!

Hmm, I have heard that only these ones that have original characters only got official translations. Do you know are there any unofficial ones?

Only original characters will not matter much for me, though, because the only robot anime I've really watched was Evangelion and FMP. Yup, not even a single episode of Gundam - weird, huh?

I'll have to finish my current games anyway. More specifically, Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations and MGS2 (where I just reached the mind screw part...).

[Nerd-o-rama]

Didn't I tell you to go watch Nadesico? Come on, man.

And anyway, let me just add off-topically that R is a wonderful, wonderful game for Nadesico fanboys. You can have Nadesico characters from the very beginning, you play through the movie and most of the interesting parts of the TV show, and best of all, you prevent that horrible movie from ever happening via time travel. Hooray for Banpresto's dislike of tragedy.

For the serious Evangelion fan, though, the Alpha series (PS2) would probably intrigue you. Or if you'd like both, there's also MX (which may have gotten a portable and therefore easier to import adaptation).


Let's see, on-topic...well, I guess most villains in mecha series suffer humiliating beatdowns, since their opponents are usually children, incredibly lucky rookies, mental cases, or all three. See particularly Viral in Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann, whose defeats get gradually more humiliating over the first half of the series until Simon eventually just one-shots his mech when he tries to interrupt his fight with Lord Genome.

I liked the movie.. but yes, you prevent Akito from EVER becoming emo. And you get the Black Selena in the process!

And no,t he only unofficial translations are for 3 and 4, none of the newer ones.

[Nerd-o-rama]

I played a partly translated ROM of R...but I meant there's a version of MX for the GBA, isn't there?

And I wouldn't say you prevent Akito from ever becoming emo. That's just impossible. You just prevent him from ever getting serious about it.

And The Prince of Darkness watched like bad fanfiction, but we can discuss this elsewhere.

[Duke Malagigi]

Greebo vs. Fire Lord Ozai and the entire might of the Nac Mac Feegle on sheep-back vs. the Fire Nation's navy. I don't think that Azula and the rest of the Fire Nation could live those losses down in 200 years.

[Mewtarthio]

If I'm allowed to post something that doesn't involve Super Robot Wars...

Most humiliating defeat ever would be a fight agains Minus (http://www.kiwisbybeat.com/minus3.html), an androgynous kid who happens to be omnipotent.

[Swordlol]

If you ever saw the 2 minute drawn movie (I think it was done in Cananda) of Bambi v. Godzilla.

The first time you watch it you'll be like WTF.

The second time you show a friend it, see their response and it is so freakin funny.

I don't know if its on YouTube, but honestly I love it.

Bridget is great for that. Last year in a science class after finals I brought my old Xbox, the first Halo, and Guilty Gear so we could goof around properly for the rest of the school year. Well there are two kinda annoying Indian dudes who I passed the controller off to after warming up on one of 'em. They make the mistake of asking me who to pick and it ends up Slayer vs. Bridget. Annoying Indian dude #1 is supremely amused by the way Bridget backs up and the "brief shot" it provides. He nudges me and goes "eh, eh". I break it to him after the fight and right before the only other guy who plays Guilty Gear walks in.

[Tengu]

Didn't I tell you to go watch Nadesico? Come on, man.


I made the save against coercion. Not to mention that I still need to finish FMP: Second Raid, and plan to watch Excel Saga after that. Nadesico lands on the "to watch" list somewhere behind that though, I'd guess.

A couple of the newer ones are very SEED-heavy (Alpha 3 and J), but there's far far more that do the whole UC Zeta and Char's Counterattack thing. The more obscure ones like Turn A and Crossbone tend to show up in one game and then get given a good long rest while they go back to the classics.

[Foeofthelance]

Nah, it covers everything from 0079 on up to Destiny.

You know, I never did understand the hate SEED/Destiny got. Am I the only one who thought they were decently entertaining series?

This include the GBA one im very close to running to the mall to get?

[Foeofthelance]

If its at the mall, I doubt it. I don't think any of the American releases came with anything over than original designs. The only means I know to get anime designs is from imported copies at conventions and such.

[The_Snark]

Disclaimer: This post contains no giant robots.

Anybody v. Bill and Ted probably qualifies as humiliating. They win. Not just because they have unrestricted time travel, although that certainly helps, but also just because they win.

And they're kind of spastic, and not really good at much of anything, so losing to them is pretty embarassing.

Oh... and the Monty Python rabbit.

[Nerd-o-rama]

To be fair, I've stalled in the middle of Cowboy Bebop, so I guess I'll finish that before harassing anyone else about their animu-watching habits. Incidentally, original Gundam is next on the list, and retelling UC Gundam with a bunch of crossovers is pretty much the point of SRW, isn't it?

Sorry for participating in the derail, everyone.

Oh, and Futurama: getting outsmarted by Fry. The Brainspawn are the obvious example, but it's happened to several other people, including Richard M. Nixon and a quasi-omnipotent energy-gas.
