Plot
Death Battle! begins with 's ship flying through space. shoots her down to Earth. She emerges from her craft and Fett confronts her.

Samus fires off a series of shots that don't even have the range to reach Fett, who retaliates with a barrage of lasers. Samus dodges by jumping up and simultaneously firing off a missile which causes significant damage to Fett. Samus lands in front of her opponent but finds herself on the receiving end of a flamethrower. She jumps out of the way and fires a rocket, but Fett is quick to use his jetpack. An aerial attack forces him to the ground, and Samus is forced to retreat under heavy missile fire (which includes the homing missile). She sneaks behind Fett and deploys a Power Bomb. She then gets in front of Fett, who can only get off a single shot before being frozen by Samus's Ice Beam. Samus charges up a shot, rolls to get right in front of Fett, and aims up to blow off his head from a crouching position.

shoots a flaming skull at, who easily dodges it by leaping over the skull. He fires a few Guo Hadokens, landing in front of the ground in front of his opponent, where he follows up with a spinning kick and a Guo Shoryuken. He leaps up and continues his combo in the air, which is finished with a Zanku Hadoken.

Shang is on the ground, and just as Akuma is about to deliver a killing blow, Shang morphs into Scorpion, causing Akuma to stop (he wanted to see if his new form would be a challenge). He reels in Akuma with a knife on a rope, punches him into the air, and then follows up with a few fireballs which come out of the ground.

Akuma recovers, however, and throws Shang several feet away. He tries to go in for more damage but ends up being cut by Shang's sword when Shang teleports out of the way of his attacks. Shang absorbs some of Akuma's soul, draining Akuma's health while raising his.

Akuma performs the Kongo Kokuretsu Zan and follows up with a few strikes. Shang morphs into Akuma and the two begin to pummel each other in the air, before Shang punches Akuma to the ground. Shang gets ready to perform the Kongo Kokuretsu Zan, but Akuma rushes in and does the Shun Goku Satsu first.

Wonder Woman throws her tiara at Rogue, whose defense is broken, leaving her vulnerable to a brutal series of strikes. She is lassoed and thrown around a few times, then punched into the air. Wonder Woman assails her airborne foe with a series of quick strikes, but accidentally transfers her powers to Rogue by touching her face. Wonder Woman tries to get away, but her leg is grabbed by Rogue, who gets even more of her powers.

Rogue then lands a few hits on a now stunned Wonder Woman, who recovers and tries to lasso Rogue. She catches the rope and throws Wonder Woman to the ground with it. Wonder Woman throws her tiara again, but the attack is blocked. Rogue leg sweeps Wonder Woman, but she gets up a lands a rapid combo before being kicked into the air. The two women exchange aerial combos, ending with Wonder Woman kicking Rogue to the ground. Wonder Woman moves in for another strike, but Rogue goes in for a kiss and ends the fight with her parasitic touch.

Meanwhile in the Mushroom Kingdom, the battle begins as the Koopa and Goomba sprout wings. They chase each other to some sort of open space with towers on either side. The towers begin firing all manner of projectiles, which the two combatants dodge as they move upward. They eventually clear the two towers, but the Goomba's wings break apart and it falls onto a Goomba Shoe. The Koopa flies down and initially avoids the Goomba Shoe-enhanced Goomba, but is knocked on its head and falls down a pipe. The Goomba also goes down the pipe by being eaten by a plant.

Seeing that there is lava on the edges of the platform, the Goomba attempts to kick the Koopa (now inside its shell). The Koopa goes sliding along the ground only to pass right over the very narrow lava pool, ricochet off a block, hits the Goomba but winds up falling into an ever wider lava pit behind the Goomba and burns to death.

and get into a Brawler Lock which ends when Zangief flips Haggar behind him. He tries to follow up but his moves are either blocked or dodged by Haggar, who tosses him onto the ground. Zangief gets up almost instantly and retaliates by smashing Haggar into the ground several times.

Haggar is then thrown several feet away. Spotting a pipe next to him, he picks it up and gets in a few hits, but Zangief counter attacks, sending Haggar into a building. Unseen (the video showed the outside of the building with a shot that panned up), the fight moves up the floors of a building. Haggar and Zangief attempt to harm one another, but block each others' attacks. Zangief leaps at Haggar and the two crash through a window and fall to the ground. A dust cloud picks up when they hit the street. As it clears, both fighters are visible on the ground, but only one gets up: Zangief.

It is night in the Big Apple. The streets are quiet, but the sewers below are about to erupt in violence as the four turtles ready their weapons. Leonardo goes for Michelangelo while Donatello goes for Raphael. Michelangelo is easily killed by Leonardo, while Raphael gets pummeled by Donatello due to the bo staff's superior reach. He knocks Raphel away and soon finds himself fighting Leonardo. In a fit of rage Raphael gets up and plows through the fight between the other two brothers, knocking them both to the ground. Raphael finishes off Donatello by stabbing him about 2 dozen times.

Raphael and Leonardo leap at each other and seem evenly matched until Raphael knocks Leonardo into the water of the sewer. They get into a sai-sword lock, which ends in Leonardo's swords breaking. Raphael's stabs Leonardo in the chest with his sai, but Raphael's neck is stabbed by what is left of one of Leonardo's swords.

Zitz is walking along before Leonardo pops out of a manhole that leads to the sewer. Zitz goes in quick, pummeling Leonardo with powerful blows, and though Leonardo is rapid to get back on his feet, the beating continues. Leonardo briefly gets in a couple hits before Zitz turns into/surrounds himself with a teardrop-shaped piece of metal, which Leonardo attacks to no effect before jumping down the manhole. In the sewers, Leonardo uses the dark passageways to outflank Leonardo and get in several hit and runs attacks, which frustrates Zitz to the point of letting loose on the sewer walls. Leonardo leaps from the water of the sewers and cuts Zitz in half.

happily dances near a pipe, where Riptor pops out. Yoshi looks in horror. Riptor goes in and brutalizes Yoshi, who is smacked away by Riptor's tail. Yoshi gets to his feet and throws a few eggs to no effect, including an egg that releases a baby Yoshi...that gets slaughtered. Yoshi is again savagely beaten as Riptor charges in for a second time. Yoshi gets in a few counter-hits, like firing a Koopa Shell, however, and eats the acid Riptor spits at him. Laying an egg, he throws it at Riptor's face, which is then covered in acid as a result. Yoshi devours Riptor and ejects him inside an egg off a cliff...and somehow onto Boomstick's car at the bottom.

is near a bridge and spots a butterfly. She tries to catch it, but ends up bumping into. Taokaka goes in for a series of rapid slashes which all land, but Felicia counterattacks, getting in several hits before she uppercuts Taokaka into the air to continue her combo. She throws Taokaka to the ground, and follows up with a series of quick strikes on the ground before Taokaka pins her. A struggle begins and Taokaka is thrown away. As the fighters face each other, a butterfly enters the fight and both are distracted. Taokaka kills the butterfly, enraging Felicia who begins to attack. The fight goes back and forth several times, with both fighters exchanging melee combos.

Taokaka temporarily loses her focus, and is slashed several times by Felicia. Taokaka is thrown away and as Felicia tries to follow up, Taokaka counterattacks, chaining a brutal aerial combo of strikes ending with the usage of her claws to slice her opponent in half.

walks the corridors of a dark building when teleports behind him. Kratos attacks with his Blades of Exile, but they are effortlessly blocked by Spawn's chain constructs. Spawn opens fire with a gun, but Kratos knocks it out of his hand. He goes in for a follow up move but Spawn teleports behind him. Kratos is caught off guard but eventually gets in a melee combo. Spawn begins to teleport all over the place, peppering Kratos with blows.

Kratos counter-attacks with another melee combo and the fight moves to the lower part of the building. Kratos charges up an arrow while Spawn readies a ball of energy. Spawn shoots the ball of energy and makes an explosion, but Kratos jumps out of the explosion and impales Spawn on the Blade of Olympus. Spawn teleports behind Kratos and stabs him through the head.

In an open field, encounters  riding a Rooey. Dig Dug tires to harpoon the Rooey, but is hit by a series of super fast strikes after it dodges his attack. Dig Dug notices a bomb has been placed in front of him and burrows underground. Dig Dug then manages to harpoon and explode the Rooey, and Bomberman throws a bomb down the hole Dig Dug made. The bomb explodes as Dig Dug rapidly moves away, revealing a plethora of power-ups for Bomberman. He takes out a bomb and kicks it toward Dig Dug.

Dig Dug hits the bomb back, but Bomberman kick it back again. This repeats for a few seconds until Bomberman whips out another bomb and kicks it toward the first bomb, stopping it between the two fighters. Dig Dug seems to retreat, and Bomberman begins to charge up a very large bomb. He kicks it away from him and it explodes, causing the ground underneath Dig Dug to disappear. Dig Dug falls down and ends up in front of Bomberman, who is chargin another bomb. Dig Dug quickly harpoons Bomberman, stunning him and causing him to drop his bomb. Dig Dug burrows away before the bomb explodes next to Bomberman.

skates across a grassy plain. Only when he sees does he stop, having sensed the Saiyan prince's power. Vegeta prides himself on his strength before seeing the talking black hedgehog in front of him leads to curiosity takes ahold of his mind. Both Saiyan and hedgehog exchange banter over who between them truly is the ultimate lifeform, but all it takes is a comment on Vegeta's height for the spark of battle to ignite.

Shadow starts the battle with a leap towards Vegeta, but to no avail, as he finds himself blocked and kicked away. Already, a single Galick Gun seems to be taking its toll on Shadow, before Vegeta unleashes the legendary golden glow of a Super Saiyan in the hopes of intimidating Shadow. Though Shadow gazes upon a form of Vegeta far stronger than what he had just seen, he refuses to back down. Shadow leaps into the air, Chaos Emeralds at the ready, and unleashes his own superpowered self for Vegeta to behold. The prince of Saiyans is less than impressed seeing Super Shadow, but the hedgehog treats it as a minor inconvenience, tearing into Vegeta with an array of strikes, helped with his Chaos Force abilities letting him strike his foe numerous times.

In the midst of a Chaos Spear barrage, Vegeta manages to shrug off his adversary's attacks, and now the ball lies in his court. A knee to the gut gives way to Vegeta kicking the hedgehog into the path of a volley of energy bullets; but when the dust settles, Shadow is to be found not admist the wreckage, but behind the Saiyan prince. Vegeta can't get another attack in before he finds himself underwater.

Shadow, his Chaos Control seemingly ending the fight and now floating above the water he warped Vegeta to, prepares to leave the scene before his foe bursts from the bottom of the sea. Shadow can only take so much of Vegeta's criticism before he again warps the Saiyan away, this time to the moon. By now, Vegeta has had well enough. With a fierce punch downward, Vegeta launches the moon at the earth, sending it barrelling towards Shadow. Shadow can only stare in horror briefly before he can come to his senses and cast aside his inhibitor rings. With his already-immense power increased further, Shadow uses a third Chaos Control to warp the moon back to its original place. Even then, he still has Vegeta to deal with. A pair of red spirals begins surrounding Shadow, ready to unleash a Chaos Blast. Vegeta shields himself as the spirals cover the landscape in a glow of red energy.

It just happens to be Vegeta's lucky day, though; without the inhibitor rings, Shadow's power has been drained, and the Chaos Blast does nothing but bring Shadow down to his normal state. Vegeta takes this chance to end the battle once and for all, another Galick Gun vaporizing the hedgehog into ashes.

Sonic lays on the ground, waiting for any action, when Mario emerges from the nearby warp pipe. The Blue Blur stands up, poised to settle the two-decade score. Sonic practically teleports over to Mario, landing a flurry of super fast blows and knowing him back. Mario consumes a Fire Flower, and throws several fireballs at Sonic. Sonic dodges all of the fireballs, but Mario moves in and hits Sonic so hard it sends him flying back. He follows up with a combo of fire based attacks, and the 'Mario Finale'. It engulfs Sonic, but it turns out he deployed his Fire Shield. Sonic rushes back and forth across Mario, hitting him on each pass, but Mario gets on his feet and connects with his hammer.

A montage of Mario and Sonic exchanging various blows with dramatic music ensues. Toward the end of the montage they chase each other into a volcano. They realize too late that it is packed with bom-ombs. The volcano blows up, landing them both in water. Sonic sinks but activates his Bubble Shield, which in quickly destroyed by Mario in a Frog Suit. Sonic is seemingly drowned, but a Super Sonic bursts out of the water.

Mario utilizes his Metal Cap, and effectively resists SS's strikes. Mario kicks Sonic, consumes a Starman, and throws Sonic away. Mario eats a Mega Mushroom, enlarging him. SS attacks him to no effect, and turns back to regular Sonic, who runs away. The Mega Mushroom's effects wear off, and Sonic follows up with a series of fast hits, landing Mario on his belly. Sonic finishes by spinning into his vulnerable back.

Peach and Zelda meet on a bridge, Peach floating down with her with her parasol and Zelda with Farore's Wind. Peach throws two turnips at Zelda, but these are deflected by Zelda's Naryu's Love ability. Peach begins to cry, and as Zelda begins to slip in the tears, Peach goes in for her Peach Bomber attack that sends Zelda flying back. However, Zelda teleports with Farore's Wind behind Peach and kicks her into the air. She follows up with a few Din's Fire attacks, then teleports next to the airborne Peach to get in a melee combo.

Peach attempts to throw a Sleepy Sheep at Zelda, but Zelda throws the sheep back with another Naryu's Love. Peach hits the sheep up into the sky with her parasol. Zelda teleports next to Peach and a slap fight begins. Peach uses a frying pan to hit Zelda, but Zelda takes out her bow and draws back the string releasing her Light Arrow. The light arrow hits Peach, who has used the Rage ability of the Vibe Scepter to block the attack, and causes a shockwave that destroys the bridge. Zelda and Peach trade blows as they fall, and when both touch down they use healing magic to recover.

Zelda and Peach begin throwing fireballs and turnips at each other, but then the Sleepy Sheep from earlier comes flying in and hits Zelda, causing her to fall asleep. Peach finishes with the Mega Strike, which causes Zelda's head to explode. The former then states "Did I win?"

On a vast landscape dotted regularly by green pipes, with hills from both Mario's and Sonic's franchises decorating the horizon. flies down for a landing on one of the pipes and begins looking around, only to be knocked away when pops out of the pipe without warning. The Bro in green jumps out of the pipe and turns to face Tails, both of them prepped for battle.

Tails fires a shot from his Energy Ball arm cannon, but Luigi charges himself up with electricity and powers through it as he flies toward Tails. As he nears Tails, he is hit by one of Tails' tails, knocking him to the ground. Tails gets into a ball and tries to charge Luigi, but a blow sends him into the air. Luigi jumps to presumably follow up with another move, and he and Tails fly around each other for a few seconds before Luigi is knocked into the ground again. Luigi tries to jump and hit Tails with a hammer, but is knocked toward the ground...again.

Tails charges Luigi for a second time and is upper-cutted high into the air, but he recovers before flying down and grabbing Luigi. He hauls the plumber into the air, but Luigi eats a Vanish Power Flower and becomes invisible. He then takes out a hammer and hits Tails, who wields his Energy Ball arm cannon and Magic Hand. They trade blows as they fall. Luigi lands safely, but Tails stays in the air and spams bombs, freaking out Luigi until he takes out his Poltergust 5000 and gathers them into a big cluster which is then shot at Tails. Unfortunately for Luigi, he mistimed the shot and instead of exploding near Tails, they fall back down on him. The explosion sends Luigi into the air, but he dives into a pipe, coming out in an aura of electricity. He flies toward Tails and gets in a handful of blows, the last of which knock Tails far away.

Tails heals himself with the Medi Bot, but Luigi rushes over to him, using the Poltergust 5000 to suck it within range of his hammer. He tries to suck up Tails, but Tails jams the Poltergust 5000 with a Flashbang grenade, disorienting Luigi. Tails installs a time bomb in Luigi's Poltergust while he's stunned and quickly deploys a Shield Bot when Luigi notices that Tails is behind him. Luigi hammers the drone to disable the shield around Tails and activates the Negative Zone. Tails is affected by the tripping and slow down effects and starts trying to escape, but Luigi uses his Poltergust to keep Tails in the zone. Finally noticing the bomb, Luigi throws it at Tails and tries to escape, but both fighters are still caught in the blast, sending Tails flying and Luigi skidding along the ground, finally stopping in front of a pipe. Luigi gets up and sees Tails in front of him. He readies his hammer, but the Magic Hand punches straight through the green guy and the pipe.

In a clearing surrounded by mountains on all sides, stands and quietly waits for his opponent. As if on cue, warps in to the stage and the two thunder gods stare each other down. Raiden takes the initiative in the fight, firing lightning bolts at Thor. The founding member of the Avengers has none of it, using Mjölnir to block the strikes, but Raiden teleports away from what would have been the end of the fight as he narrowly avoids the hammer's tossing at him. The fight soon stays in Raiden's favor afterwards, warping behind Thor and catching him in a frenzy of melee strikes, culminating in a blast of electricity hurtling Thor across the field. Thor has soon had enough of Raiden's onslaught and unleashes a mighty spark of lightning at the defender of Earthrealm, who redirects it back at its master. Just moments after he lets Mjölnir absorb the lightning, Thor hurls a tree at Raiden, who, using his physics-defying powers, blows up the insulated wood.

The fight leans more into Thor's favor at this point, as he summons a grand fissure in the ground; Raiden barely avoids tumbling into the abyss before launching himself off the battlefield and into the skies. In return, Thor's hammer-based flight grants him the momentum to meet Raiden's challenge. The two thunder gods charge at each other, their collision releasing a massive shockwave that chars the land. Their duel sees Thor knocking Raiden to the ground, but again does he fails to land a hammer toss on his Japanese adversary. Raiden's blasts of lightning fail to give him the distance he needs, for shortly after, Thor charges him and pummels him across the landscape.

In the climax of the battle, Thor pins Raiden to the ground before leaping a vast distance away. Swinging Mjölnir in a frenzy, a vast tornado rises above the ground. Raiden, slowly recovering from Thor's assault, warps himself over to Thor's position before returning fire with a barrage of lightning bolts and a strong uppercut that launches the crown prince of Asgard into the sky. The offensive doesn't end there, as Raiden meets Thor's presence with an onslaught of strikes from all directions. A final discharge of electricity gives Thor enough time to knock Raiden back to earth and prepare the killing blow. Generating energy inside Mjölnir, Thor gives the hammer one final swing, unleashing a godly thunderbolt upon Raiden. The defender of Earthrealm stares down the God Blast.

The entire battlefield is illuminated for a brief second as the God Blast makes contact with its target. But yet, Raiden still stands. Imbued with a newfound power, Raiden crackles with a blue energy, rushing towards his foe. The pillar of energy he leaves in his wake ends only as Raiden reaches Thor. As time itself seems to slow down, Thor readies the hammer and with a final strike, unleashes a fountain of blood as Mjölnir rips Raiden clean in half. Thor grabs the upper half of Raiden and hurls the decimated husk of his foe into the sun, but not before bidding farewell to the once-proud Japanese god. As the sun burns the shell of Raiden alive, the last remnants of him become a flickering blue spot that fades out; and just as Raiden meets his end, so too does the battle.

and face off in a large room with many pillars leading to the ceiling. Cloud is the first to attack, rushing forward. His slash is parried by Link, who then backflips away and fires off a few blasts from his sword. Cloud blocks all of these attacks then strikes the ground, sending a wave of energy that sends Link flying backwards.

Cloud and Link close the distance between themselves and engage in a Sword Fight, dodging, parrying, and blocking blows. A strike from Link sends cloud flying away, but he lands on his feet and starts to shoot lightning. Link blocks most of these attacks, and Cloud performs an aerial attack which backfires on him, and Link tries to follow up with a few arrows. An ice arrow briefly immobilizes Cloud, but he breaks out of the ice. Link throws a boomerang, and Cloud manages to get rhough Link's defenses, slashing him several times. A powerful blow knocks Link's sword away, and Cloud moves in.

He attacks Link, but Link's shield blocks all his attacks. The boomerang comes back, stunning Cloud and allowing time for Link to retrieve his sword. A strike from Link sends Cloud flying into the air, but he retaliates by shooting fireballs. Link dodges all these fireballs and the fight moves to a walkway high above the floor. Cloud manages to break Link's defenses again, and seens sure of victory until a precision slash from Link wounds Cloud. Cloud falls to the floor, and Link deploys several bombs which blow him into the air. Link hits the airborne Cloud with his sword.

and meet on the roof of a building, Batman silent and Spider-Man snarking, "You've got a black belt in stupid if you think you can beat me!" Spider-Man shoots a few globs of webbing at Batman, but they are blocked. He reels Batman in with a string of webbing, and delivers a combo of blows that initially take Batman off guard before he counter attacks, landing a series of punches and kicks that knock Spider-Man several feet away.

Batman hurls a handful of Batarangs at his foe, but none of them hit. An explosive Batarang, however, knocks Spider-Man off his feet. Batman then uses a smoke pellet to impede Spider-Man's vision. Taking his chance, Batman goes in for a melee combo, throws a bola to restrain Spider-Man, and uses an explosive device to send him off the roof of the building they are fighting on. Spider-Man is able to recover and get a hold of the building, but Batman quickly swings into Spider-Man with his grapple gun, sending Spider-Man through a window into one of floors before quickly retreating to the shadows.

As Spider-Man recovers, Batman destroys the lighting in the room and tries to ambush his opponent, but Spider-Man catches him. The two exchange blows and Batman is almost throw out a window. Batman now uses his transponder to summon bats, but Spider-Man is unphased and charges straight at Batman, sending both of them out the window.

The two punch and kick each other as they fall, but Batman wins that part of the fight, landing on Spider-Man with the full weight of his body before leaping away as an explosive sends Spider-Man flying.

Spider-Man recovers and tries to hit Batman, but is shocked by the suit and hit several times by Batman, who then follows up with a barrage of Batarangs. Spider-Man uses his webs to sling back an explosive Batarang back at Batman, but he is unaffected as he used his cape to protect him. However, Spider-Man begins shooting globs of webbing machinegun style at Batman, who finds himself unable to counter and is eventually restrained in a large spider web. Spider-Man then uses another web to slingshot himself at the restrained Batman, whose body is ripped in half as a result.

and face off in a light forest. Blanka charges in with a series of quick blows and Pikachu retaliates with a bolt of electricity which has no effect. Blanka charges Pikachu and sends him flying. Pikachu rushes Blanka with his speed, getting in several good hits before a counter-attack from Blanka sends both fighters flying away.

Another bolt of electricity from Pikachu has no effect. Blanks tries to steamroll Pikachu but his attack is dodged. Pikcahu charges a ball of electricity that finally hurts Blanka, but he gets up and charges Pikcachu. Pikachu rushes toward Blanka as well. As the two fighters meet, Blanka just bites off Pikachu's head. After taking the head, he puts the rest of the electric mouse into a blender and swallows the rest of him, finishing with a burp of electricity.

In Metropolis, a plane that lost part of its wing is nose diving towards the citizens and they start running away. But soon, comes in to save the day once again, humming the 1978 Superman theme. He happily claims "Don't worry folks, this looks like a job for Super-whoa!" Superman narrowly avoids part of the plane hitting a building. We cut to later where we see a news report on TV about Superman saving the plane from crashing into the city.

Turns out it's being watched by the cast of the Dragon Ball series. claims "Superman, huh? Wow, he looks really strong." Vegeta scoffs "What, that pretty boy ass clown? Please, I could kill him with my eyes closed! Much faster than that stupid transforming hedgehog" referencing his fight with Shadow. They continue watching and Chi-Chi throws in a comment. "Just look at him, wearing his underwear on the outside. I bet it chafes!" but soon, tells her "Don't be so sure." Goku is looking out to the see. "I sense him. He's strong. Stronger than anyone I've ever fought." Chi-Chi asks if he's serious and Goku happily claims "Finally, someone who's as strong as me!" he twirls Chi-Chi around happily, but the mood is ruined when Roshi (voiced by Lanipator as well) states he heard Superman is an alien. Goku, given his previous experiences, says that "It's only a matter of time before he destroys the planet!" Goku suits up and calls for Nimbus, flying out to fight the Man of Steel.

We cut to the actual scene of the fight, in 3D. Superman stands atop the Daily Planet building and hears Goku coming for him. He turns and sees Goku standing on Nimbus. Goku says hi, and Superman says hi back, confused as to what's going on. Goku says they should fight. Superman says that's not his thing, but Goku doesn't give him much choice, launching a small yellow ki sphere at him. Superman knocks it away and punches Goku off the cloud. The two land on the street. Goku happily says "Oh boy, this is gonna be fun!" Superman exclaims "You're insane!"

The two fighters circle around before Goku throws a punch at Superman. He gets knocked back a bit before Goku goes up to him and they start hitting each other rapidly. Superman goes forward a bit, allowing Goku to kick him in the back. Goku attempts to attack Superman again after kicking off of a building, but Superman is ready for him, punching him in the gut and sending him to the other side of Metropolis. Superman follows Goku and rapidly punches him saying "You're outmatched, give up!" Goku uses a Kaio-Ken to make himself stronger and Superman, wondering what Goku just did, gets sent flying from a knee to the face. Goku gives chase and kicks him, then follows again and throws an energy blast at Superman, sending him to the ground. Goku fires a volley of energy shots, but Superman, with the help of Torquasm-Rao, sees which way the energy will fly and uses it to get past Goku before rapidly hitting him and circling him simultaneously, before Goku is sent flying into a building. Goku realizes he can't move. Superman asks "So, you're an alien too, huh?" Goku wants to know what happened and Superman states he hit Goku through pressure points. While Superman is explaining, Goku pulls out and eats a Senzu Bean with his telekinesis, healing himself and allowing him to move again. He offers Supes one, who flatly states "No." before destroying the bag with heat vision. He then states "I'm ending this, now." and he throws a punch at Goku.

However, Goku begins glowing yellow from the Super Saiyan transformation and catches his punch. Superman is confused as to what's going on, giving Goku the chance to hit him rapidly. Supes asks Goku what's going on, but Goku flies forward, faking Superman out and attacking him from behind. He exclaims "I am Son Goku! And I...AM A SUPER SAIYAN!" while hitting Superman up and onto the roof of what is actually the LexCorp building. Goku then fires a Kamehameha which destroys the LexCorp building. When the smoke settles, Superman is standing and looking up. He says "Huh, this might take a while", before dropping to his knees from a nearby piece of Kryptonite. Goku prepares to attack Superman, but notices he's suddenly in pain. Goku wonders if the rock is hurting Supes. Goku aims a volley and fires it...right at the Kryptonite. Supes wants to know why Goku would do that and Goku answers "I wanna beat you at your best. It's no fun if it's not fair." Supes thanks Goku, right as the latter kicks the former in the face. We see the two of them bouncing off each other as they fight across the city.

Goku wins the struggle and hits Superman to the ground before using the After Images on him. Superman just walks up to one and punches it in the face, not being affected by the illusion thanks to Torquasm-Ro. Goku gets ready for another attack, but before he can, Superman zooms to right behind Goku, leaving the other confused. Superman picks up a car and slams it down onto Goku, telling him to watch his blind spot next time, but Goku transforms to Super Saiyan 2. Superman's reaction: "Huh. Deja Vu." Goku unleashes a large amount of energy spheres, but Superman destroys them all with heat vision and then blasts Goku in the back with it. He picks up a lamppost and home runs Goku with it. While in mid-air, Goku pulls out the Power Pole in time to home run the lamppost that Superman apparently threw at Goku before he zooms over to Superman and starts hitting him with the magical object. While Superman tries to recover himself from the attack, Goku extends the power pole, slamming Superman into a building, before the martial artist runs over and hits Superman through a building. Goku asks "The game's not as fun when you're losing, is it?" Superman responds with "Game? You think this is a game? I haven't even begun to play." He flies off towards the sun. Goku senses where Superman is going, which seems to be somewhere where the sun is higher in the sky.

Goku teleports over to in front of where Superman will be using Instant Transmission and smacks Superman into the ground with the Power Pole. Goku swings the pole around in an attempt to side-swipe Superman, but Superman grabs the pole, slams Goku to the opposite side of him, rips the pole out of Goku's hands and hurls it towards the sky. Goku uses this opening to transform to Super Saiyan 3. Superman has an "Oh Great" moment right before Goku punches him in the face. Goku than rapidly kicks Superman in the face. While Superman is in mid-air, Goku uses this chance to grab Superman and use the Dragon Throw on him, hitting him into the ground multiple times before throwing him. Superman just comes back and starts rapidly punching Goku, who holds a defensive stance. Goku wonders what makes Superman so strong and attempts to read his mind, but Superman's psychic barriers keep Goku from doing so and leave him wide open to be attacked. Superman flies towards Goku. Goku attempts to use Solar Flare on Superman to blind him, but Superman seems more angry than he does hurt. Superman's response: "My turn!" he then blasts Goku with a huge beam of heat vision. However, soon the battlefield starts changing with small parts of negative space and clouds forming in the sky. Superman starts to get worried and we see Goku has gone into Super Saiyan 4. Superman states "Here we go again." Goku tells him "Nobody is stronger than Super Saiyan 4, my ultimate form!" Superman isn't impressed. "Ultimate form, huh? About time you ran out of hairstyles."

The two slowly rise into the air and fly towards each other, hitting each other blow for blow with the other countering. Goku, however, eventually gets the jump on Superman hitting him from above. Superman attempts to freeze Goku using his Arctic Breath, but it does little to Goku, who lands a hit on Superman. Goku is able to land a blast on Superman. Superman realizes he doesn't have much solar energy left and that he has to get above the dark clouds that have formed. When he flies up, Goku follows him, readying and firing a Kamehameha at Superman. Superman counters back with a large shot of heat vision. They become deadlocked in a Beam-O-War until Goku uses a Kaio-Ken and is finally able to overpower Superman and send him flying...right into the sun.

Goku thinks the fight is finally over, now back to his base form. But he is then able to sense Superman's energy, realizing that Superman is using the sun. Goku then uses the Sun's energy to create the Spirit Bomb, but the longer it takes to charge, the more sun energy Superman is absorbing. Superman finally emerges from the sun and Goku finally gets the Spirit Bomb at full power. Goku goes Super Saiyan and absorbs the Spirit Bomb into Ki energy and fires the blast towards Superman, who flies towards Goku to attack him. He gets through the Ki laser and whams Goku underground in an attempt to drive him into the earth's core. Just before Goku lands on the core, he goes into Super Saiyan 4 and launches one final attack using the Dragon Fist while Superman counters with the Infinite Mass Punch. The result completely destroys the earth and incinerates Goku in the process. Superman is then seen floating through space, and when the sunlight hits his face, Superman's eyes open. He then flies off to, since he and Goku destroyed the planet, do god knows what while all that remains of Goku is one of his boots.
