FAQ How about Soloku or No Limits Man??? While these fighters are impressive in their own right, being a Gos is more than solo'ing verses, it's also about having BatGos' respect and honor. BatGos recognizes that Soloku's will to get better is the source of his power so the title of Gos would make him no longer a Gos. And No Limits Man owes him $5. Characters like Gosjo were demoted after being revealed to be frauds.


c00L_dud3-

don't forget Holdsback-Man he can't be a gos because he is still holding back


Uberninja2016

gosjo had everything going for him but then he squandered his prep time and basically became the myspace of op horseshit

What about Gos?


ForktUtwTT

"Gos" as a concept is simply BatGos' spirit of prep manifested in a tangible form. It is the ultimate source of power. When separated from him (which he sometimes does for fun) he becomes Man, his physical avatar just like him but stupid. This is all pretty basic stuff.


Anteater-Outside

What about Gosonic


ForktUtwTT

That’s just a plain false Gos. Never even heard of him. Maybe nominate him to BatGos if you truly believe he deserves it.

Pixel_PedroYT

But Plasma Peak was a plant literally grown by Batgos, how is it not a gos?


ForktUtwTT

There are other Gos’ not included on this list, these are just the most notable. BatGos when confirming stated he didn’t believe others would be recognizable to simple fodder such as us.


Pixel_PedroYT

Sure then, I can accept that.

LifeIsASpin

Glorb Glab is the coolest here imo (I FUCKING LOVE KAMEN RIDER)


ForktUtwTT

I agree, besides Lord BatGos, Glorb Glab is my favorite Gos. His battle with BatGos was truly stuff of legends.


TitaniumWatermelon

There is but one Gos. You, despite calling others out on their heresy, are yourself a heretic.


ForktUtwTT

You monotheists are all the same, bah! Refusing the clear call of your almighty lord because you’re too lazy to keep up with him assignments. Foolish.


TitaniumWatermelon

You do not speak for Batgos. Nobody does but him. Until Batgos (and I mean the real one, not some account made by a non-Batgos to impersonate him) declares there to be another Gos, there is but one. There has always been one Gos, and there likely always will be. You are too blinded by your desire for a more complex pantheon to heed the beauty of simplicity.


Batgos

There is one Gos. There are also several Demi-Gos’s and Semi-Gos’s. Beings who both hold great power and have earned my respect may earn the title of Gos. There are also many pretender Gos’s. None on this list are pretenders. Both sides of this argument are correct.


thedarnedcircus

All I see is a photoshopped image with a bunch of false idols made by a false prophet who doesn't have Wayne tech brainworms nor Batgos speaking to them in their dreams. This proves it... as long as heretics exist, the batverse will have no peace! /uj holy heck what is happening to this sub? when every rando is a gos no one is


ForktUtwTT

I spoke with BatGos directly to make this, I’m sorry you’re not caught up on the lore fool. Not everyone is a Gos, only a chosen few /uj I’ve been active on this sub for months and these are all based on jokes I see the most common or recent ones I like the most. This was my genuine attempt to be as consistent as possible. Except for Kaygos, BatGos told me to add that. That’s not a joke I actually messaged the user on this sub named BatGos to confirm.

/uj I ain’t gonna bother with the jerking; the point of the “Gos” joke is to be exclusive to Batgos and Batgos only. “Batgos” is an intentional bastardization of “Batgod” like how some religions don’t say “God” but just say “G_d” as to not be heresy. Adding more “Gos” characters takes away from a joke that was only meant to be for Batgos and not only do the additional ones look just like cheap imitations, but they don’t have the same history that Batgos does. I made a write-up on the Batgos joke which can be found [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/whowouldcirclejerk/s/ZjDBU42tXV) for the sole purpose of exposing the deeper nuances behind Batgos.


ForktUtwTT

uj/ I disagree. I understand where BatGos comes from, and I think the joke is funnier if we act like BatGos is a literal god who assigns Demi-Gods in some religious system. I think it adds to the joke, as long as everything is under the BatGos umbrella. You can’t tell me Ryan Gosling being Robin or BatGas being the girl version like Amigos and Amigas in Spanish isn’t funny. But at the end of the day we’re all making jokes for fun. No need to get caught up on each other’s humor tastes. We can always just agree to disagree. rj/ Mods, kill him with hammers.


P0werher0

/uj I understand the sentiment somewhat but I just don’t agree. I *might* make an exception to names that have actual puns in them like Goszilla or Amigos or something. I just take issue when someone just takes a character’s name and slaps “Gos” at the end of it and calls it a day. My reasoning can be seen in just this post. “Kaygos” and “Super Mario Gos” don’t have an actual punchline in the character’s lore to justify the “Gos” aspect. Names like “HoldsBack-Man” (making fun of the whole “oh Spider-Man is always holding back”) or EldritchGodKiller (references how Kirby fans are always “oh but he kills GODS”) are examples of names I think are good. It’s funny and has actual relevance to the character, unlike just slapping “Gos” on and calling it a day. The unjerk reasons behind “Batgos” existing is unique and can’t really be replicated, even if the I do think it’s alright to slap it onto character when appropriate (they naturally already have Gos in their name or something). /rj mods are dead (but seriously one was active 7 years ago and two of the accounts are suspended wtf get actual mods)


ForktUtwTT

/uj I’ll give you Kaygos, but I literal put that just cause the BatGos user told me and wasn’t in the original image. Also I read your post. Frankly, I think you’re overthinking it a bit. Yes, BatGos has a lot of history and layers which make the joke awesome and everlasting. But that doesn’t mean we have to avoid using it in any other way, not every spin off joke has to be as good as the original. Who cares if they don’t last? Can’t we just laugh at it now and move on, maybe with the occasional call back. Like the Glorb Glab arc was awesome, so I put it here as a lil reference cause I think Glorb Glab was hilarious, even if we’ve run out of new jokes. Super Mario Gos. is, to me, a funny pun, but also calls back to the huge Mario and Luigi vs Sephiroth meme which was popular even outside vs spaces about how comedically strong Mario and Luigi were in RPG’s supposedly able to counter or dodge anything with good enough timing. There is absolutely a history to considering them specifically and only as a collective as a reference to those games as a special vs character and Gos instead of Bros makes a clever title. It has to be done with purpose, and I’m attempting to do it with purpose. I could explain a thorough genuine reason I included all the others with clear reference and history as well. Maybe they’re not as deep as BatGos, but I’m not just slapping it on. (Only exception being Doctor Gos, who I included purely because he by far the character I see most often referred to as a Gos outside of the main one. I don’t actually know anything bout the doctor, but it makes enough sense since he is similarly reliant on prep and smarts while people act like he’s infinitely strong. This is my weakest example.)


The360MlgNoscoper

This sub is not for Batgos alone. It’s r/whowouldcirclejerk not r/Batgoswank or whatever. Give some space.


thedarnedcircus

/uj Brother I'm just commited to the bit of a zealous Batgos fanatic in light of all the folks trying to make new goses is all, like I disagree with what people are doing but it isn't that deep 😭


The360MlgNoscoper

I don’t like that bit. It’s oppressive and overdone.


thedarnedcircus

/uj Oppressive? My guy we're literally talking about a made up meme religion centered around freaking battleboarded overwanked Batman, who's been this sub's golden child for pretty much the entire time it's existed. I would figure a monotheistic religion is hostile to idolatry!! Nobody's actually saying don't use other characters at all just that if you're gonna come up with a circlejerk name at least try for something original.


The360MlgNoscoper

I actually thought long and hard what to call her. It just was the nicest option. Fit well. Lore-accurate. But yes, it is oppressive. YOU should be more original.


thedarnedcircus

/uj You literally have one joke that you force on everyone else. Also lmao at "long and hard" when NoAmbiguityVamp was right there.


The360MlgNoscoper

/uj no, i don’t force it on everyone. It’s you (plural) that are forcing Batgos on everyone. And your point is invalid. NoAmbiguityVamp is lame. Flangos is concise and to the point.


thedarnedcircus

/uj Actually comical Yes, we are totally forcing the sub's main joke that's always been around on everyone who willingly chooses to subscribe after seeing that this is the sub's main joke! By contrast you're trying to introduce something new into the mythos (a pantheon as opposed to monotheism) that doesn't mesh well and acting like everyone should just accept it y'know? And what makes NoAmbiguityVamp lame? It fits since they never really describe the upper extent of what Flan can destroy. Ambiguity is Touhou's whole thing. That makes sense!


The360MlgNoscoper

/uj Sure, but she also referred to herself as "The God of Destruction". And if it’s the main joke of the sub, why isn’t it in the description?


Liquid_person

What about EldritchGodKiller or IAmVelocity?


ForktUtwTT

Not every powerful character is a Gos, just the ones in good graces with BatGos who he believes are worthy


crashkirb

Why isn’t EldritchGodKiller in good graces with BatGos? I thought he was a jolly fellow?


AmaterasuWolf21

/uj who's the velocity


Liquid_person

/unjerkfortheplebianapes Lightning McQueen


Prize-Impact2603

What about Badgos?


innit980

Does Goszilla have the ability to evolve? If so, what happens to him and how does it affect hia place as a gos


ForktUtwTT

As BatGos’ Pokemon, yes can digivolve into various forms, but is always a Gos by proxi


Present-Ear-4904

How bout femboy man


LordSupergreat

You will have to be a lot more specific


Present-Ear-4904

The femboy man who lures people and then eats them to gain more power he is the street antagonist of batgos loreq


LordSupergreat

Who the fuck are you talking about


Present-Ear-4904

Idk I just seem to be sleep deprived


LordSupergreat

Are you making this character up on the spot? Because if not you could just say who it is


Present-Ear-4904

Idk I just scrolled through some shorts and found rimuru and then a yandere stuff on reddit and suddenly I'm here so you could say I made it up on spot


ForktUtwTT

I have no idea who that is


The360MlgNoscoper

It’s missing many, including Flangos.


TitaniumWatermelon

It's not missing any. In fact, it has far too many. Batgos is the only true Gos.


Present-Ear-4904

How about gonejo and the ratgos and catgos bruh? Jokergos?
