It’s amazing you made the final scene actually feel like a proper duel despite Death’s overwhelming size and movement. Most bosses in Cuphead feel like stationary targets, impenetrable walls, but here Death moves like an actual participant in an even battle!
The fact that cuphead looked like he went all out for this one (like his fight against shovel knight) goes to show how tough of an opponent he is really facing. And death looks like he is taking this seriously because of how little cuphead values his life
Considering he beat The Devil, Cuphead actually has a good shot here. Not that he can kill Death, he didn’t kill the Devil, just beat him into submission. The idea he can beat DEATH into submission to give up his chase of him will be very satisfying who those who thought Puss should’ve done so in the film. I would like to stress, not escape death, just get him to leave him alone until his time actually comes.
This matchup actually makes a lot of sense the more I think about it. Something Cuphead is known for is being able to retry a fight as many times as he wants. He can always come back after being killed. This is something that Death would despise for sure, since he already thinks cats having nine lives is absurd enough.
@@zion3115Cuphead too. If you talk to the guy in the pond. Also I wouldn’t say deaths, I would just say “knocked out” as you can still revive your teammate(if u playing co-op which is the canon mode to play I guess). When bosses are defeated in Cuphead they seem bruised and knocked out.
As several people have pointed out already, Death isn't too keen on beings with multiple lives, however he does seem to tolerate them if they value those lives... Cuphead, however, bet his soul in a game of dice without a second thought, showing such a disregard for his lives that Death would absolutely hate him (this might also be the reason why this crossover was made too, as the line at the end seems to be Death calling the cup out on his recklessness).
I think the best part about this animation is the fact that Cuphead, despite having an incrdible arsenal is only using his first weapon. No roundabout, no lobber or even the crackshot. And he got death to his final phase. Amazing
I for one think you did an most excellent job with this, because you make Death look even more terrifying and with the cuphead flare added to it, absolutely amazing.
Honestly we can’t blame Death for being ticked off with Cuphead just he was with Puss, since Cuphead in game keeps dying over and over while the shows version keeps on having his soul stolen and having mugman save him
@@ikergonzalez4222 possibly. It's never stated, but all that means is he doesn't forget when they turn back time. They are still far stronger and faster than anything death has done to an almost obscene degree
1:34 Love the detail of Cuphead's own ghosts being used as parryable objects, both a nod to being able to do that in co-op, but also how Death can show people their past lives (like he did with Puss).
It's very interesting because it makes a time loop because, at the start of the animation, Cuphead sees his previous life and when he dies and starts again he sees his previous life.
I really was not expecting this animation to copy the 1930s style of the game and combine it with Death and all the scenes from The Last Wish. Who knows how many souls were sacrificed for this. The MORØ productions team truly and absolutely blew it out of the park with this one. Amazing Job!!!
The fact Death has a reason to go after Cuphead makes this work amazingly, especially since the reason is that Cuphead generally doesn’t stay dead as he can basically retry fights until he wins. That would make Death pretty mad.
Imagine how many times Cuphead went through that if he was almost at the end the last time, either the time he left off on or the next would have him win the fight.
I'm pretty sure everyone already knew this, but each phase's background is actually a reference to each time Puss encounters Death Phase 1 - The Bar Phase 2 - The Cave of Lost Souls Phase 3 - The Wishing Star
The "gameplay " also references how Puss responds in each encounter. Phase 1: Puss tries to fight but is clearly outmatched. Death is a giant in the background. Phase 2: Puss doesn't even try to fight, just flees. Autoscrolling section with Death chasing you. Phase 3: Puss fights on more even ground. Death is at his smallest size, fought in the foreground.
When this video was recommended to me and I watched it, I was as fascinated as a little child and was constantly laughing and smiling, your animation brought my childhood back to life and I was able to get excited 😊
Now THIS is a cuphead boss fight. I love how the phases reflect the death encounters in the movie. Its just so well done! And incredibly details as well.
This was amazing. I wasn't expecting it to be like a battle from Cuphead, but I can see it in the game. Plus the last battle was perfect. I always saw the final battle in the film as, as overstated as it is, to be similar to a Dark Souls boss battle. This in no way lessened it despite the style of the fight. Well done.
I just realized something. Cuphead, as a cartoon character, technically is immortal. No matter how much damage they take, they can’t be killed or age. That’s probably what sets Death after him and why Cuphead will be able to defeat him, unlike just accepting him like Puss did. It would be good to apply context to how characters view certain concepts like Death.
What I feel like this animation does right in comparison to others is that it’s a believable level of difficulty that you’d find in an actual cuphead boss. All the insane shit going on is what makes it better, and this has mastered it
however, of course, I haven't played cuphead for a long time, but it seems to me that for 2 of the 3 stages a certain improvement is required - dodging through the enemy, if my memory does not fail me
I do like the contrast between Cuphead and Puss in the opening scene because where Puss was too scared to pick up his sword and duel Death in a fight, Cuphead doesn't hesitate and grabs his arm before placing it back onto his body and facing Death without fear knowing that he can defeat him.
En realidad 🤓. Gato también perdió su espada y lo enfrento bastante confiado la primera vez, no fue hasta que la muerte le demostró que era más fuerte y que gato podía morir, que le dio miedo y no tomó su espada y huyo
Well we know Cuphead values his family and friends. (Mugman, Elder Kettle, Chalice) So he, like Puss at the end of the movie, has something to fight for.
I love how physical the fight got towards the end. I felt like Death actually started fighting instead of only having pre-programmed predictable attacks like all other cuphead bosses. Good job!
@@K.O-ANIMATIONSI don't think cuphead clicked restart. If he did, the head wouldn't be there. Cuphead faced death after seeing his future self's head. After the fight, he becomes the head, which his past self then sees and faces death.
This is very impressive. MDHR should hire you to make a Cuphead 2 video game. The animation style is similar, and your hand drawn adaptation of Death Wolf from DreamWorks is fascinating!!!! 😱🥹😀👍 Amazing Job!!!!!!!! 😱😀👍
This should be called the Cuphead fights series. Where it started with Cuphead losing his brother Mugman in an accident that HE caused. It's all because a blue-haired boy pissed him off in the middle of the forest. It started with him fighting The Devil while aquiring Nightmare powers which led to Cuphead killing him in the process, soon he meet that kid again but he lost, so he had to open another portal to another world which is Madness combat, where he had to fight off the Auditor, and then Tricky. That led to him losing his nightmare form, which means he had to fight tricky all by himself but Hank came and helped him, after defeating tricky, cuphead jumped to another portal which led him to fighting Choo Choo Charles. Cuphead prevailed against Choo Choo Charles, so he had to keep looking for a portal back home, but that led him to DEATH Edit: apparently cuphead lost this battle, in which in fact it did lead him to DEATH so many times
It seems like Deaths' goal here isnt to kill Cuphead directly ( given how thats impossible given Cupheads nature ), but to rather break his spirit. It's nice to see the inverse of the formula on Cuphead, given how Cuphead beats his bosses into submission so its nice to see Cuphead on the other end of that gun. edit: mfw cuphead could have parried the last attack ffs
The first act feels completely faithful to the style and mechanics seen in the game, the last two however have that plus their own original touch. Congrats.
As a cuphead veteran: The spread shot and crack would be good for this boss as well as the chalice charm to use invincible roll to dodge the flame the the double jump to beat the second stand and definitely equip the 2 super, shield pal to make sure you won’t die in the first phase easily also where cuphead died I am sure if your lucky enough you could use invincible roll to dodge
I realized that, as a cartoon, that was probably the first time Cuphead saw blood, and I don't think seeing it coming from his severed limb made it any better for him.
This is how I wish the Cuphead TV Show looked. I love how you captured the art style that is from the games. This looks like an actual Cuphead boss battle.
This battle seems authentic! Not only that you made it look like an actual cuphead battle but you made it insanely fair and reactable for the potential player. it's not easy but it's has it's difficulty to be a hard boss battle for most people that's for sure. hopefully cuphead can have mods for this to be ported over.
I dunno it feels way too reliant on the smokedash Especially at the end Also the flame geysers come out too fast. That and also in the 2nd phase there is way too much shit on screen. It seems better suited to a plane segment then on foot
@@funnyman8161 with further study, you can technically walk through death without taking damage, also there's ALOT of pink to parry stuff with. using smoke bomb is optional you can definitly beat this without smoke bomb.

Everything about this is perfect! And it still looks and feels like watching a skilled player's playthrough. This is just... 100% a smooth animation, and still would work as a real challenge in the game!
Honestly, Death would probably be after a lot of video game characters due to them having "extra lives" something Death hates. Really cool animation and extremely faithful to all the things Death does in the movie. Especially faithful in that Cuphead can't beat him. Having cuphead needing to jump on his ghost representing his 'lives' to platform is very creative. Amazing job!!!
@@kataveonevans6224 That is pretty funny how in most games if you beat Kirby he just goes for a nap. And choosing to continue or not is basically choosing if Kirby is willing to wake up or not.
Everyone thinks they'll be the one to defeat me, but no one's escaped me yet. - Death Amazing animation, interestingly conceptualized attacks that represent Death very well and follow the flow of the Cuphead gameplay style nicely; the final portion of the fight was an interesting deviation from said standard that looked awesome in it's own way. Very well done!
"Everyone thinks they'll be the one to defeat me, but no one's escaped me yet." _Do the slapstick cartoon characters count?_ They shrug off lethal scenarios like it's nothing. *Examples:* Screwy Squirrel, Tom and Jerry, Droopy, etc.
Can I just say you drew Death very well here and I love how he fights. It's not too complex but also extremely difficult to deal with, while seeming fair. That's ... impressive. On top of the animation, this is legit the coolest.
the most interesting thing is that all the battles of cuphead, in the style of the game, not depending on how non-standard the enemy is for the game cuphead, but in the battle of the "nightmare cuphead vs devil" (just in the world of cuphead) was not in the style of a boss fight, but in the style of animation)
I like the fact that this makes so much sense Such as cuphead doesn’t value his lives and that’s why death is after him Another thing is that cuphead loses which makes sense death is nearly almost unbeatable.
Something I noticed in the battle is that cuphead actually takes damage enough for him to get killed. Each phase he is hit once. The first is at 1:19 where he gets hit by the skull now he would have 2 HP. The second is at 1:44 when he gets hit By a shard piece in the bottom left. 1 HP remains. The last one is at 2:45 when lubo (that is wolf in Spanish and multiple times in the last wish is what he is referred to as By puss in boots so imma use it) does an undodgeable attack. Meaning this fight can be done, you just have to have 2 HP when the fight reaches the fire ring state, or alternatively, have the invincibility special active at that time
2:34 this part, this part right here has my heart racing. It’s soooo damn good 😊. This is legit how i would try to fight this boss 😂. The music gets me so hype lol
I know Cuphead lost. But as shown in the video, he's kinda immortal. So, if he learns Death's pattern, he'll whoop his ass for sure! Edit: Y'all brought up some good arguments; keep it up! Edit 2:At this rate, I'm gonna have to turn off notifications :0
@@AscendedEmperor but we are the players In cuphead we need to learn the bosses pattern But this is animation not a game cuphead is in this one alone Does that make sense? Maybe not Unless the deaths we have in the game is not canon
@@caine_the_ringmasterthey are kinda in the Cuphead game if you go to a water pit creature he'll tell you the amount of times you've perished. Which could range from none to a thousand depending on the player
The animation, the music fitting not only Death himself but in line with the game, it all came together in a beautiful cycle that I cannot get enough of!! Cuphead can face The Devil with his confident smirk, and a little terror, but facing off against a giant cloaked wolf who makes you see all your dead and shattered heads again and again definitely only drives him further to break. this. cycle. If not beat Death at least get back his life before his sand fully runs out.
I like how relentless Death is. I expected a Grim Reaper sort of boss (because I have not watched Puss in Boots, which I think is the title if not sorry lol) but I guess not. I mean it’s Death so it’s quite fitting. And as a bonus his game over screen matches with the rhythmic taunting all Cuphead bosses seem to give. Excellent work again MORO!

Really cool animation and extremely faithful to all the things Death does in the movie. Especially faithful in that Cuphead can't beat him.
Having cuphead needing to jump on his ghost representing his 'lives' to platform is very creative.
Amazing job!!!
I wonder how he would do against kirby?
@@supermatthewbrosI don't think Kirby dies actually he just sleeps as a game over unlike cuphead when he dies he would turn to a ghost
Death when he sees mario using a giant luigi hammer against him:
@@dylanzlol7293 that wouldn't work because they need to be in Luigi's dream for that to happen.
@@kataveonevans6224 That is pretty funny how in most games if you beat Kirby he just goes for a nap. And choosing to continue or not is basically choosing if Kirby is willing to wake up or not.
I love Death, I haven't played Cuphead but I have seen videos, and this really looks like something out of the video game, nice work!
A ton of sick ideas here, loved it
Parrying your own past souls had me clapping
Everyone thinks they'll be the one to defeat me, but no one's escaped me yet.
- Death
Amazing animation, interestingly conceptualized attacks that represent Death very well and follow the flow of the Cuphead gameplay style nicely; the final portion of the fight was an interesting deviation from said standard that looked awesome in it's own way. Very well done!
"Everyone thinks they'll be the one to defeat me, but no one's escaped me yet."
_Do the slapstick cartoon characters count?_ They shrug off lethal scenarios like it's nothing.
*Examples:* Screwy Squirrel, Tom and Jerry, Droopy, etc.
One of his defeat quotes.
"Think you can defeat me? Place your bet. But no one has escaped me yet."
@@alexfischer7876If they're forgotten or if the plot tells them to die,yes
2:13 Certified Nightmare Cuphead moment
Okay, THIS IS AMAZING!!! I can’t believe how real it looks to the actual game.
The final stage gave me so many Nightmare King Grim flashbacks. But OMG this was awesome! Phenomenal work!
As someone who absolutely adores both franchises, I think you did a great job at bringing the best of both worlds to this video.
death would be the type of guy to use an undodgeable attack at the end of the fight, wouldn't he?
Not only that, but made Cuphead bleed, so cartoon and game logic gets thrown out the window.
this was extremely good!!!❤
What an amazing video, loved how it turned out to be Cuphead’s purgatory 👍
2:46 should've parried
Can't be parried
Should've save his health
How?
It’s pink so he can
2:06 the patterns are very simmilar to pure vessel
This looks like it actually came straight out of Cuphead! Awesome work man!
I love how casually Cuphead reattached his arm
Can I just say you drew Death very well here and I love how he fights. It's not too complex but also extremely difficult to deal with, while seeming fair. That's ... impressive. On top of the animation, this is legit the coolest.
the most interesting thing is that all the battles of cuphead, in the style of the game, not depending on how non-standard the enemy is for the game cuphead, but in the battle of the "nightmare cuphead vs devil" (just in the world of cuphead) was not in the style of a boss fight, but in the style of animation)
maybe because nightmare cuphead wasn't the underdog and was just straight up more powerful than the devil then compared to normal cuphead
It's Cuphead, not Caphead.
This is genuinely so sick, when I saw the first few seconds of the fight my mouth was wide open.
I like the fact that this makes so much sense
Such as cuphead doesn’t value his lives and that’s why death is after him
Another thing is that cuphead loses which makes sense death is nearly almost unbeatable.
That arm scene was so disturbing yet genius at the same time. You did Death so well with this.
Something I noticed in the battle is that cuphead actually takes damage enough for him to get killed. Each phase he is hit once. The first is at 1:19 where he gets hit by the skull now he would have 2 HP. The second is at 1:44 when he gets hit By a shard piece in the bottom left. 1 HP remains. The last one is at 2:45 when lubo (that is wolf in Spanish and multiple times in the last wish is what he is referred to as By puss in boots so imma use it) does an undodgeable attack. Meaning this fight can be done, you just have to have 2 HP when the fight reaches the fire ring state, or alternatively, have the invincibility special active at that time
I believe it's lobo,not lubo
Or use the invincible super as well.
That was an amazing animation. This really makes me want to play Cuphead. Maybe you could make an alternate scene where he defeat Death.
That Was EPIC!! even if cuphead lost.
Hey ever consider doing a Poppy Playtime Boss Battle?
Just something to think about
3:01 fun fact if you rewind it to the beginning, it technically means he came back to life
One must imagine make cuphead happy
One must imagine cuphead happy.

2:34 this part, this part right here has my heart racing. It’s soooo damn good 😊. This is legit how i would try to fight this boss 😂. The music gets me so hype lol
You captured the horrifying and charming nature Death exuded in the film beautifully. Very well done!
Who else regrets that MORO only makes animations and not actual mods ?

I didn’t expect this video to be a loop, but otherwise, the boss looked very clean
Good animation, good fluidity, the animation was beautiful, and good work by the animators.
Bro this is amazing, I hope studio MDLR see this
The fact that this not only looks wonderful visually but that it also looks immensely fun to play is fantastic!
0:28 If you didn't notice or figured out cuphead has bin dying or and over again since we can see he's head every here on the ground🍵
bro this is perfect this boss needs in real cuphead or in dlc
Oh my god How incredible, this really beautiful animation ❤❤❤
I know Cuphead lost. But as shown in the video, he's kinda immortal. So, if he learns Death's pattern, he'll whoop his ass for sure!
Edit: Y'all brought up some good arguments; keep it up!
Edit 2:At this rate, I'm gonna have to turn off notifications :0
Unless cuphead forgets everything when he dies
I mean he did die like idk 100's of time's maybe in this cycle?
@@caine_the_ringmasterit's like in the game you'll die to the Cuphead bosses but you'll eventually overcome them
@@AscendedEmperor but we are the players
In cuphead we need to learn the bosses pattern
But this is animation not a game
cuphead is in this one alone
Does that make sense?
Maybe not
Unless the deaths we have in the game is not canon
Except since he’s still Death there isn’t really a way to defeat him unless you can actually over death as a concept period
@@caine_the_ringmasterthey are kinda in the Cuphead game if you go to a water pit creature he'll tell you the amount of times you've perished. Which could range from none to a thousand depending on the player
The animation, the music fitting not only Death himself but in line with the game, it all came together in a beautiful cycle that I cannot get enough of!! Cuphead can face The Devil with his confident smirk, and a little terror, but facing off against a giant cloaked wolf who makes you see all your dead and shattered heads again and again definitely only drives him further to break. this. cycle. If not beat Death at least get back his life before his sand fully runs out.
OH MY GOOOOOOOOD! I loved this work so much. The Death is so f***ing cool. 💙
WOW MY MIND HAS BLOWN UP THAT WAS AMAZING
I like how relentless Death is. I expected a Grim Reaper sort of boss (because I have not watched Puss in Boots, which I think is the title if not sorry lol) but I guess not. I mean it’s Death so it’s quite fitting. And as a bonus his game over screen matches with the rhythmic taunting all Cuphead bosses seem to give. Excellent work again MORO!
His fight does play a bit similar to Death and Dracula from Castlevania.
" Aww, look at this little bu- *OH SHI-* " - Stock photos man
This was excellent. Cuphead got some serious feats under his belt at this point.
Just goes to show how OP the Smoke Bomb charm is.
You guys really nailed the look and feel of the original game!
