RESULTS OF SEASON 5 SURVEY

Overall, this sub believes 16/16 episodes from Season 6 are accurate, giving it an accuracy rating of 100%, the second one of this Survey.

The closest “accurate” episode to an “inaccurate” rating was Sasuke VS Hiei with 12 upvotes.

The most and least upvoted episodes were Ganondorf VS Dracula and Sasuke VS Hiei respectively.

Today we look at Season 7, the first season of the 2020s; interesting details include the use of mid-season hiatuses, and the mark of the shift from episodes every three weeks to every two weeks. The largest season of the modern era, how many of these battles hold up in the accuracy department today? Two weeks from now we’ll be looking at the 10th anniversary season, Season 8. Until then, refresh yourself on the rules, and enjoy discussing the 16 episodes of Death Battle Season 6!

RULES:

1. Every episode of a given season will have its own highlighted comment. If you agree with the episode’s verdict upvote that comment, if you disagree, downvote, and if you are uncertain, do not vote.

2. There are multiple standards people use to determine accuracy. For some people, if an episode’s calcs are wrong but the verdict itself is correct, they may still find that episode inaccurate. Other episodes may have been right at the time but rendered irrelevant or incorrect by new media. While I am not arguing for everyone to adopt one standard for use outside of this survey, for the purposes of this survey, all votes should be influenced by the following principle: Do you believe the victor should still be the victor if the fight was made today?

3. Do not make individual comments in this thread. All comments must be replies, either to the distinguished comments or a reply to an earlier reply if you agree/disagree with the argument they presented.

4. Do not downvote people just because you disagree with their argument. The only comments you should be downvoting are those of episodes you disagree with.

5. Lastly, because this is an open invitation nfor debate. I must stress that as you are debating, KEEP IT CIVIL, this is the most important rule to follow, and if I or other mods notice repeated infractions it will result in temporary bans for the users involved and possibly even the cancellation of this survey depending on how widespread the issue gets.
