Interlude
Wiz & Boomstick
by Brandon Yates |
We cut to Wiz and Boomstick.
Wiz: Heroes come in many different forms. Some are heroic protectors of justice, and others are the teachers who guide us toward a better future.
Boomstick: And sometimes, they're both!
We cut to the combatants' name cards.
Boomstick: Like Obi-Wan Kenobi, the Jedi Master of the Galactic Republic from Star Wars.
Wiz: And Kakashi Hatake, the sixth Hokage of the Hidden Leaf and mentor to Naruto.
We cut back to Wiz and Boomstick.
Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a Death Battle.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Wiz: On the distant planet of Tatooine lived an elderly hermit known as Old Ben, his heart heavy with regret and stories to tell.
Boomstick: 'Cause he wasn't just some crazy old coot.
Boomstick: He used to be a badass samurai space wizard!
Wiz: Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Boomstick: "Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time." Ah, I love a good Obi-One-Liner.
Obi-Wan: Hello there.
Wiz: As a child, Kenobi was inducted into the Jedi Order, warrior monks training in the Force over the course of their lives.
Boomstick: And he was trained by the one and only Liam Neeson! Well, until he was murdered by Space Satan.
Wiz: Though, not before they discovered a child of prophecy, and Obi-Wan's future pupil: Anakin Skywalker.
Boomstick: I have a bad feeling about this.
Wiz: Eventually, Kenobi rose to the top ranks of the order, becoming a Jedi Master. Just in time for two back-to-back Galactic Wars!
Boomstick: Sounds like fun when you've got his classic lightsaber, which can cut through basically anything with enough... "force". Get it?
Wiz: Including the duranium armor of General Grievous, which can tank volleys from starfighter cannons.
Boomstick: It's an elegant weapon for a more civilized age. 'Cause, you know, mutilating and decapitating people left and right is way more honorable.
Wiz: Kenobi has studied seven forms of lightsaber combat, and is the undisputed master of Form III, Soresu.
Boomstick: Which is all about defense, and waiting for your opponent to make a mistake to land a finishing blow. He's so skilled, he can beat Sith Lords in just seconds.
Wiz: But Kenobi's most powerful weapon, or better put, ally, is the Force, an energy that exists almost everywhere. Jedi can tap into the Force to manipulate the world around them.
We cut to Wiz and Boomstick.
Boomstick: Like throwin' stuff around with telekinesis, everything from pulling down an airship, to crushing someone else's organs.
Wiz: While Kenobi prefers a more direct dueling approach, his power in the Force is nothing to scoff at. Many years after his time, he was explicitly compared to Jedi Knight Kyp Durron, who could move a micro singularity with a thought.
Boomstick: Speaking of thoughts, he can mess with yours with the Jedi Mind Trick. Like, if he wanted to, he could get Jizz stuck in your head.
Wiz: Boomstick! Gross!
Boomstick: What? It's a type of music. Those aliens at Jabba's palace were playin' it. They're called Jizz-wailers.
Wiz: Huh, I bet Disney was real happy to learn about that one.
We cut back to the analysis.
Wiz: Kenobi's Force abilities also include protective fields, illusions, and Tutaminis, a technique for absorbing and redirecting energy attacks.
Boomstick: Even without a lightsaber! Oh, also, uh, he can see the future.
Wiz: To a certain extent. Jedi can glimpse the distant future through focused meditation. In battle, the Force can guide their movements, predicting danger in advance.
Boomstick: Kinda like a space Spidey-Sense.
Wiz: Exactly. With their incredible skill in the Force, Kenobi and Skywalker became a formidable duo.
Boomstick: Obi-Wan ranked up even more and became a general. He's a badass space pilot who can dogfight at near lightspeed.
Wiz: According to an official novel, he can even react down to the nanosecond.
Boomstick: I dunno, Wiz. I've seen the movies, and Jedi have never done shit like that.
Wiz: Well, other mediums have greatly expanded upon Jedi capabilities. Some are even powerful enough to hold together entire planets.
Boomstick: Obi-Wan has fought an army while blindfolded, endured a blast from a starfighter, and battled the Sith Anakin Sky-uh, I mean, Darth Vader! That's when he had to break out his most OP move of all: the High Ground! By standing just a few feet above an opponent, Obi-Wan gains enormous extra powerfulness! He even warns you about it!
Obi-Wan: It's over, Anakin! I have the high ground!
Boomstick: It's foolproof!
Wiz: Uh, not exactly. Remember how Darth Maul had the high ground way back when, against Obi-Wan himself?
Boomstick: Where do you think he learned such an awesome move? Only Sith Satan could think of something so deadly!
Wiz: Uh-huh... Either way, Obi-Wan sadly failed where it mattered most.
Boomstick: Ooooh, that's definitely gonna be an "F" on the ol' Jedi report card. See me after class for an epic boss battle on a lava planet.
Wiz: But defeating his fallen student is no small feat. Anakin could telekinetically move starships fast enough to intercept hypersonic missiles. Based on the scale of this Dreadnought and the distance it moved, this would need an energy over 21 megatons of TNT.
Boomstick: And that was when he was a newbie! He basically became the most powerful Jedi and Sith in space wizard history.
Wiz: However, Kenobi is extremely dedicated to his strict Jedi Code, potentially to a fault. It's debatable if he ever learned from this mistake. After all, he told Luke Skywalker that the only way to ever become a Jedi would be to kill his own father, and he even tried to trick him into never figuring out that fact in the first place.
Boomstick: Dick move, Obi. Dick move.
Wiz: But even in his worst moments, Obi-Wan Kenobi always fought for the sake of others. He would battle his dark apprentice one last time, sacrificing his life in service of a new hope.
Boomstick: And then he became a ghoooost~!
Wiz: Don't ruin the moment.
Obi-Wan: If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
Kakashi Hatake
Wiz: Shinobi, Hokage, mentor, friend.
Boomstick: And porn addict!
Wiz: Kakashi Hatake is all of these, and generally a pretty relaxed guy for someone raised as a ninja assassin.
Boomstick: You wouldn't know it at first glance that his childhood sucked balls. Like when his dad committed seppuku... because he saved his friends instead of prioritizing a mission.
Wiz: In the shadow of disgrace, this cruel methodology of the ninja and his father's great mistake tore young Kakashi apart.
Boomstick: Reminds me of my dad...
Wiz: What was his "great mistake"?
Boomstick: He called it... "Boomstick".
Wiz: Oh. Ahem, despite his hardship, Kakashi proved himself a prodigy, becoming a Genin at age five, a Chunin at age six, and a Jonin at age twelve.
Boomstick: For those of us who don't speak anime, he might as well have been doing ninja rocket science in the womb.
Wiz: He quickly mastered the use of chakra, a form of spiritual energy within all individuals that ninja can shape and weaponize. This is ninjutsu.
Boomstick: He can walk up walls, heal wounds, and even make clones of himself. Plus, he's a master of taijutsu, AKA punchin' people. But his deadliest technique of all is the One Thousand Years of Death!
Kakashi: Leaf Village Secret Finger Jutsu...
Naruto: (screams)
Kakashi: A Thousand Years of Death!
Boomstick: Oh-ho-ho! That's gonna get you on a list. Naruto's like, 12!
Wiz: Chakra can also be molded into nature itself, and Kakashi can use it for numerous elemental attacks.
Boomstick: Sure, he can shoot fireballs or dunk you with water, but his favorite is lightning! Lightning zaps, lightning clones, lightning... dogs?! That's awesome! How do I get one of those?
Wiz: He's even invented a lightning ninjutsu technique: the Chidori. By gathering electric chakra into his hand or a kunai, he becomes capable of piercing just about anything.
Boomstick: Even a bolt of actual lightning! Take that, nature! Man triumphs over you once again!
Wiz: This is where Kakashi's own Chidori got its moniker: Raikiri, Lightning Cutter.
Boomstick: Oooh, now I know what I'm gonna name my lightning dog!
Wiz: The Chidori does have a downside, though. Its speed and power are so great, they give the user tunnel vision and make the attack generally uncontrollable.
Boomstick: Basically, once you kick on the gas, you're zoomin' straight ahead, no matter what happens. Although, Kakashi "eyed" just the thing to fix it.
Wiz: Long story short, he was drafted into a war alongside his friends Rin and Obito.
Boomstick: Shit went down and Kakashi lost an eye, so Obito handed over one of his when he decided to sacrifice his life. Holy shit! Why don't I have any friends like that? Wiz, gimme your eye.
Wiz: No.
Boomstick: I'll give it back, I promise.
Wiz: Obito's eye wasn't an ordinary eye. He was an Uchiha, and this was a Sharingan.
Boomstick: With his Sharingan, Kakashi not only got some control over his Chidori, but he can see a person's chakra, predict their movements, dupe your brain with genjutsu, and even copy jutsu techniques. He's such a filthy plagiarist that he's stolen over 1,000 jutsus in 14 years.
Wiz: Although, since Kakashi is not an Uchiha, he can't exactly... turn the Sharingan off.
Boomstick: And then Rin jumped in front of his Raikiri and kicked the bucket, too. Man, this guy can't catch a break.
We cut to Wiz and Boomstick.
Wiz: And yet, unimaginable loss is exactly what is needed to unlock the Sharingan's next stage: the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Boomstick: Aw, yeah! With the mankey eye, he can cast Kamui, basically sucking objects or people into another dimension. Sure, it uses up a lot of his chakra pool, but it's a pretty clever instant win move.
Wiz: The concept of trauma granting new power fascinates me.
Wiz holds up a detonator.
Wiz: So, I've stolen Boomstick's entire beer hoard, and placed it in a secure room with 200 tons of TNT.
Boomstick: (laughs) Wait, what?
While the music stops as Boomstick asks his question, Wiz pushes the button, resulting in a massive explosion coming from the left of the screen.
Boomstick: NOOOO! You monster! What have you done?!
Wiz takes out a clipboard and pencil.
Wiz: Do you feel anything?
Boomstick: Just thirsty, sober, and... PUNCHY.
Wiz: Pu-punchy?
Boomstick clocks him in the face. Wiz collapses unconscious, and Boomstick then grabs some money from his pocket.
Boomstick: Next round's on Wiz!
We cut back to the analysis.
Boomstick: Well, for Kakashi, everything sort of worked out in the end. He became a teacher, and this new generation of ninja helped him learn that his dad was right all along. Friends do come first. Unless they blow up all your beer! (to Wiz) Wake up!
Wiz: (groans) He's held his own against top tier ninja-like Zabuza, Pain, and even his old friend Obito.
Boomstick: Back from the dead and evil now, because why not? Kakashi can definitely compare to fellow ninja master Jiraiya, who can blow up mountains. That takes over 18 megatons of TNT.
Wiz: And he's caught and sliced lightning. Based on the distance it moved before he caught it, he must have reacted within 70 microseconds, and moved over 2,000 times the speed of sound.
Boomstick: Sounds like ninja president material to me. Not too shabby for a guy who likes to read porn in public. Did I forget to mention that? Because he totally does.
Wiz: Kakashi of the Sharingan is nothing if not full of surprises.
Kakashi: Right now, all I can give you... is just death.

Force and Lightning
by Therewolf Media |
Obi-Wan's ship falls from the sky and crash lands into the forest of Konohagakure's training area, which startles Kakashi while he is reading his book. Obi-Wan walks out of the crash site, groaning.
Obi-Wan: Another happy landing.
Kenobi notices Kakashi as he lands on a nearby tree, still reading his book.
Obi-Wan: Hello there.
Kakashi: Hold it. You're in Konoha territory. I have some questions if you'll come with me.
Narrowing his eyes and waving his left hand, Obi-Wan uses his Jedi mind trick on Kakashi.
Obi-Wan: You want to go home and keep reading your book.
Kakashi: I want to go home and keep reading my book...
Obi-Wan starts to leave as he believes Kakashi will go home and read his book. However, unbeknownst to him, not only is the he unaffected by the mind trick, he has been angered by the Kenobi's action.
Kakashi: ...After I kick your ass!
Kakashi readjusts his headband, revealing his Sharingan, who then throws four kunai at Obi-Wan as he deflects them with his robe. Obi-Wan brings out his lightsaber and readies his fighting stance. Kakashi tosses his book into the air and uses Earth Style ninjutsu.
R4-P17: (screams)
Kakashi's ninjutsu summons an earth wall where Obi-Wan's ship is, launching it away along with R4-P17. Obi-Wan charges at the wall and slashes at it, creating a boulder perched on top of the wall as a result. He then uses the Force to push the boulder at Kakashi, who had caught and continued reading his book, dodges by leaning back, just barely dodging the boulder.
Obi-Wan charges forward with his lightsaber and repeatedly swings at Kakashi, who simply leaps back until Kenobi Force pushes him into a crater in the ground. Obi-Wan approaches the edge of the cliff near the crater.
Obi-Wan: Had enough?
Kakashi gets up, responding to the question.
Kakashi: Well now, you've fallen for the deadliest strategy we ninja know - One Thousand Years of Death.
Shocked, Obi-Wan begs Kakashi to not carry out his action.
Obi-Wan: Don't try it! I have the high groOOOOOOOOOH!
Obi-Wan howls in pain as Kakashi releases the embarrassing and devastating attack on his rear, all the while the kabuki sound effect plays. Obi-Wan swings his blade back only to see Kakashi dispel in a cloud of smoke, revealing it was a shadow clone. He turns to see the Kakashi leaping out of the crater only to find that another clone has grabbed a hold of his leg and pulls him underground.
Obi-Wan struggles to escape as only his head is sticking out of the ground. Kakashi approaches the Kenobi to taunt him.
Kakashi: I guess I have the high ground.
Obi-Wan: Oh, I don't think so.
The earth begins to shake around the two combatants as Obi-Wan uses the Force to lift himself out of the ground. Kakashi leaps back to avoid the collateral damage from the wind, leaves, and ground. Obi-Wan directs the leaves to keep spinning to conceal his movements.
Kakashi: Most impressive... but I see you!
Kakashi activates his Sharingan and tosses the book aside as he pinpoints Kenobi's location. He kicks Obi-Wan forward, causing him to drop his lightsaber. As soon as Obi-Wan recovers from the blow, Kakashi closes in with taijutsu, landing several punches before Obi-Wan dodges him and uses the Force to push him back.
Kakashi: Fire style!
Obi-Wan uses Force Deflection to keep the flames from burning him and redirects the fire away from him making it go behind him. As soon as the flames dissipate, Kenobi gasps as his eyes turn red and he finds himself trapped in one of Kakashi's genjutsus. His surroundings grow dark before hearing the distinctive lightsaber and breathing of his former apprentice, Darth Vader. As the Vader approaches to attack him, Obi-Wan realizes he is in an illusion and clears his head.
Obi-Wan: Be mindful of your thoughts, Obi-Wan. They betray you.
Obi-Wan comes to just as Kakashi is about to impale him with a Lightning Blade. He is able to narrowly avoid the blow and uses the Force to push Kakashi back into a tree. He retrieves his lightsaber and leaps forward just as Kakashi charges up a kunai with lightning.
The two mentors clash in the air multiple times before Obi-Wan is able to knock away Kakashi's kunai. Kakashi leaps forward to tackle Kenobi, but Obi-Wan is able to push him off before using the Force to telekinetically bring Kakashi back to him and stabs him in the shoulder with his lightsaber.
However, it proves to be a lightning clone, as the real Kakashi emerges from underground and tries to take advantage of his electrocuted opponent's state by activating Kamui, but Obi-Wan is able to narrowly jump to the side of the portal before it decimates the area around him.
Kakashi charges up his Lightning Blade to its fullest potential and begins to dash forward just as his Sharingan eye begins to bleed.
Kakashi: Don't give up.
Obi-Wan lowers his lightsaber and places his hand in front of him.
Obi-Wan: Trust in the Force.
Through intense concentration, Obi-Wan uses Shatterpoint to crush Kakashi's Sharingan eye. Kakashi flinches, but does not relent and runs faster as the lightning surrounding his hand turns purple. With his eyes still closed, Obi-Wan briefly deactivates his lightsaber and assumes a defensive stance. Just as Kakashi is about to unleash his ultimate attack, Obi-Wan dashes forward just as he turns on his lightsaber.
After the final clash, the lightning in Kakashi's hand begins to disappear. Kakashi begins to choke and the top half of his body falls down, as Obi-Wan's lightsaber has made a clear slice through his torso. Groaning in pain, Obi-Wan Kenobi holds a hand to his violated rear and shakes his head at his fallen opponent.
Obi-Wan: So uncivilized.
Results
Force and Lightning
by Therewolf Media |
We cut to Wiz and Boomstick.
Boomstick: Welp, Kakashi may have been able to beat Obi-Two, but he just couldn't handle Obi-One. Haha, got 'em.
Wiz: Kakashi's wide array of moves certainly kept Kenobi on his toes, but the Jedi's arsenal was far more powerful and versatile then you might think.
Boomstick: Yeah, like how chakra is an internal life energy with a limited supply, but the Force is external and everywhere. Obi-Wan couldn't exactly run out of it, and Kakashi couldn't copy Force techniques. 'Cause, I mean, he's using external force, not internal chakra. Totally different.
We cut to the post-analysis.
Wiz: As for brute power, ninja mountain-busting and Anakin's Dreadnought telekinesis were fairly comparable. However, Kenobi matched Anakin's force power well after he had become far stronger than that.
Boomstick: This is the Chosen One we're talkin' about here. Other Jedi have done some crazy stuff, like throwin' a fleet of Star Destroyers out of a solar system in seconds, and stopping a whole planet from going kaboom. Oh, and you know how Obi-Wan tore apart Grevious' armor with his bare hands in Revenge of the Sith?
Wiz: The same armor designed to survive starship cannons. It withstood a blast that annihilated a subterranean city and almost collapsed the surface of a planet.
Boomstick: I seriously doubt Obi is physically strong enough to rip that armor apart. But apparently the Force is!
Wiz: Even Kamui wasn't a reliable option, since Kenobi's reaction speed was nearly 70,000 times faster than Kakashi's. More than quick enough to avoid Kamui, especially with his precognition.
Boomstick: But we can hear you shoutin' in the back, "What about Kakashi's dual Mangekyō Sharingan that Obito gave him, and the Perfect Susanoo?"
Wiz: It's difficult to justify granting those to Kakashi at all, because they aren't really his. He can only use them when Obito's spirit briefly possessed his body.
Boomstick: Even if he did, the results probably wouldn't change much. Remember that Kyp guy who moved a black hole? Yeah, he was directly compared to Obi-Wan by Luke himself.
Wiz: If we're to take that at face value, this means Kenobi could theoretically call upon the Force to exert nearly 14 petatons of TNT.
Boomstick: Way more than what Kakashi was packin'. And even then, Obi-Wan could just crush his organs. Shit, man, don't mess around with Jedi!
Wiz: I know it can seem strange to hear about Jedi being this powerful and deadly, but think of it this way: part of the reason why the Jedi Code is so strict is because of this immense power at their fingertips. The code tries to keep them, uh, civilized in a way.
We cut to Wiz and Boomstick.
Boomstick: But, when you enter a Death Battle, throw those morals out the window. We're lookin' for who wins a no-holds-barred fight to the death.
Wiz: Kakashi had many impressive tools, tricks, and techniques. But Kenobi's brilliant speed, overwhelming Force, and greater level of power won this bout.
Boomstick: In the end, Obi-Won.
We cut to the "Winner" card.
Wiz: The winner is Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Obi-Wan: From a certain point of view.
Original Track
Force and Lightning
by Therewolf Media |
Composition
The track for this fight is "Force & Lightning" by Therewolf Media. The track itself is fast-paced coupled with dramatic violins, rock guitars, and the shamisen, the latter two of which is heavily utilized in the Naruto anime's soundtrack.
Title
The title is a reference to the abilities the combatants possess (Obi-Wan's ability to harness the Force, and Kakashi's natural chakra affinity, Lightning). It could also be a play on Force Lightning, an ability used by Force users in Star Wars.
Cover Art
The cover art depicts Obi-Wan's lightsaber crossed in an X-formation with a ninja kunai igniting purple lightning sparks (referencing Kakashi's Purple Lightning jutsu). Additional golden sparks are seen flying behind the weapons.
Trivia
Production
- The connections between Obi-Wan and Kakashi are that they are both snarky, modest, and intelligent mentors of the main protagonist of their series (Luke Skywalker and Naruto Uzumaki, respectively), as well as students who turned evil but later redeemed themselves (Anakin Skywalker and Sasuke Uchiha, respectively). Both are skilled, supernatural warriors (a Jedi and a ninja, respectively) who carried out leadership positions in major wars (Obi Wan was a Jedi General during the Clone Wars, while Kakashi was the Third Division Commander during the Fourth Shinobi World War). Both can draw on naturally occurring energy in battle (the Force and chakra, respectively) and have a weapon known for its ability to cut nearly anything (a lightsaber and the Chidori, respectively). Both also had their own mentors who died in battle (Qui-Gon Jinn and Minato Namikaze, respectively), as well as former comrades who became evil (Anakin Skywalker and Obito Uchiha, respectively), whom they would battle multiple times before their students influenced them to redeem themselves.
- Ironically, their students have shown up in previous episodes, and while the main protagonists they taught won their battles, both of their redeemed students lost their battles.
- Additionally, both of their previously aforementioned turned-evil comrades would later fight each other in Season 10.
- Both would eventually appear as cosmetic skins in Fortnite.
- The episode's YouTube release date was May 4th, which is widely recognized as Star Wars Day. It also aired the same day as the series finale of Star Wars: The Clone Wars.
- Boomstick's first line in the post-analysis would eventually be re-used inversely in the post-analysis of Darth Vader VS Obito Uchiha.
Easter Eggs
- Boomstick says "I have a bad feeling about this." after Anakin is first brought up in Obi-Wan's analysis, the well-known phrase that's commonly said by multiple people throughout the Star Wars series.
- There are multiple allusions to other Star Wars media during the fight.
- Almost all of Obi-Wan's lines are direct references to lines of his from the Prequel Trilogy.
- "Another happy landing." references the same line from Revenge of the Sith.
- "Hello there." references the same line from Revenge of the Sith.
- "Don't try it! I have the high groOOOOOOOOOH!" references the infamous scene from Revenge of the Sith, though he is interrupted by Kakashi using his One Thousand Years of Death technique on him.
- "Oh, I don't think so." references the same line from Revenge of the Sith.
- "Be mindful of your thoughts, Obi-Wan. They betray you." references a similar line from Attack of the Clones.
- "So uncivilized." references the same line from Revenge of the Sith.
- When Obi-Wan first draws his lightsaber, he takes his typical fighting stance.
- Kakashi's "Most impressive." line references Darth Vader's same line from The Empire Strikes Back.
- Obi-Wan uses Force Deflection to redirect Kakashi's Fire Style Jutsu, possibly referencing when he used a similar tactic in his battle against Durge in the Star Wars: Clone Wars animated series.
- Kakashi getting sliced in half by Obi-Wan with his lightsaber is similar to how the latter does the same to Darth Maul in The Phantom Menace.
- Almost all of Obi-Wan's lines are direct references to lines of his from the Prequel Trilogy.
