Two Hot-Blooded anime characters, Katsuki Bakugo and Inosuke Hashibira, raps against each other.
This rap battle contains examples of:
- Lonely at the Top: Inosuke's final line is telling Bakugo that even if Bakugo becomes the #1 hero, he would be alone.
- Mirrored Confrontation Shot: The final scene is a series of increasingly closed-up shots of Bakugo on the left and Inosuke on the right facing and jumping towards each other with weapons ready.
- Shout-Out:
- As this is Freshy Kanal's first anime-vs-anime battle, he has Inosuke name-drops anime-rap-battles creator Rustage.
- Inosuke compares the Sludge Villain incident that happened to Bakugo to being slimed by Nickelodeon.
- During the back-and-forth verse, Bakugo and Inosuke trade Shout Outs as insult. Bakugo calls Inosuke Mowgli and Piglet, while Inosuke references Eminem's sweaty palm.
- Bakugo claims that fans are only interested in Inosuke when waiting for the new Jujutsu Kaisen.
- Slobs Versus Snobs: A contrast is made between city-dwelling Bakugo who comes from money (snob) and forest-dwelling Inosuke who was Raised by Wolves, although in practice, both talks like a delinquent slob.
- Volleying Insults: After both rapper's first verses, the next verse is a shared one where Bakugo and Inosuke exchange diss back-and-forth.Bakugo: Homie, you were Mowgli on a cliff!
Inosuke: But then I get deadly!
Bakugo: Get that dead mom on your head, make you top heavy
Inosuke: This blonde's petty, kinda shady when his palms sweaty
Bakugo: Get Piglet out the Hundred Acre Woods, he's not ready - Your Mom: Bakugo twice makes fun of Inosuke's dead mother, subtly comparing her to a pig in the first instance.Bakugo: Get that dead mom on your head, make you top heavy
Bakugo: Babe, you need a rest! Where the hell yo moms at? Gave you pretty eyes and then she went no contact
