| The fight between Birdy and Nataru in Birdy the Mighty Decode:02 was impressive not because it was "epic" or served as eye candy, but because it essentially threw away art quality and detail to focus on one thing: movement. Although people may think otherwise, I thought this technique depicted the gritty intensity of the battle quite well. |

| I haven't watched that much animes yet but the 2 best battles i've seen in anime are : The last fight in Sword Of The Stranger ( Best swordfight ever ) Emiya Kiritsugu VS Kotomine Kirei in Fate/Zero ( Amazing fight, also it's one of the rare fights where you don't really know who will win. ) What i hate is when fights start going full retard with overpowered characters like in DragonBall Z. Don't misunderstand me, i loved DragonBall but it's just not good when fights are like that. What i hate even more is when there is a major asspull, for exemple, pretty much everyone of Natsu's fights in Fairy Tail. |

Forgetfulness said: Kotomine Kirei vs. Emiya Kiritsugu from Fate/Zero. Well all of Fate/Zero looks gorgeous already, so there isn't much to say about the looks. It was the confrontation that had been hyped by the series since the first episode; no talking, just pure going all out against each other. Ending was a disappointment though That was one of the worst action scenes in the entire series. Which, actually, isn't even an insult, but still. |
| I'll admit there's nostalgia attached to this, but I still don't think I've seen a more entertaining fight than Rock Lee vs Gaara in the Chunin exams. |
Forgetfulness said: fst said: You know, at least they fought for a decent amount of time and it was fairly even unlike most of the "fights" where one side nukes the other with a Noble Phantasm. I don't even consider something like That was one of the worst action scenes in the entire series. Which, actually, isn't even an insult, but still. an actual fight but apparently a lot of people consider it one of the best they've seen But yes, you could argue that it wasn't an actual fight since the victor was decided before it even started. Still. |

| Mustang vs Envy, even though I cried at the end. |
 |
| Chimproo Desert - Ugly vs Stimpy anyone who was watching the show knows that this was just BOUND to happen. the build up in episode 6 alone left us on our toes until the final 4 minutes which were filled with un-ending, life-questioning awesomeness. You could tell that both Kyo-ani and Madhouse poured their soul (and money) into that scene. |

| Kenshin vs Shishio and Luffy vs Crocodile. |
| "Let Justice Be Done!" My Theme Fight again, fight again for justice! |
| Luffy VS Rob Lucci/Crocodile. Both are pretty great, though I give the slight edge to the Crocodile fight for being the climax of my favorite arc. Kenshin VS Shishio. Still fucking delivers after all these years. Shishio is one of the rare big baddies that actually exceeds the hype built up around him. Hisoka Vs Gon. To put it simply, this fight marked the moment that I knew Hunter X Hunter would be one my all time favorites. I was completely sold from this moment on. |

| Goku vs Piccolo Jr for me. |

| Piccolo vs 17 (Kai version) (one of the most underrated fights in the series) Goku vs Cell (Kai version) Kabuto vs Tsunade Kenshin vs Soujiro I remember the Spike vs Vincent fight in the Bebop movie was pretty badass although it's a really long time that I watched it so I don't remember it fully. |

The fights in itself was also good. 3 rounds with different dynamics, nice choregraphy, with great variety in their movesets, good comedy, Crocodile sadistic mindgames in (sandstorm in Yuba, The bomb), very emotional ending. Nothing surprising about it being here, it had a lot to offer. |

| Luffy vs Magellan. Luffy vs Lucci. and the most epic fight that I've ever seen is. Aang vs Ozai. |

Buildup? I don't recall much except that luffy is the good guy and Croc is the really bad one. It was a political-ish kind of arc so I expected it to have more strategy. The fight itself (all three of them) weren't so good either imo. Especially with all the convenience and OOC moments. I don't get the "it was luffy's first real opponent" Previous villains took quite some time too, and all of them looked more threatening that Croc, who, by the time we realized no one is gonna die, and him sparing luffy, felt like a joke. |

Luffy vs Croc left a lot impression. Luffy prove that he's not just 'ordinary' rookie. it become clear why he deserve to be captain. and most important thing is, it's proving that Luffy ACTUALLY use his brain sometimes. |

Grunbeld said: I don't get the "it was luffy's first real opponent" Previous villains took quite some time too, and all of them looked more threatening that Croc, who, by the time we realized no one is gonna die, and him sparing luffy, felt like a joke. He was never in that kind of difficulty. The tsumegeri did die in Alabasta, so what you said about no one dying is objectively wrong. It's not that nobody die in One Piece, but more like "a lot of people survive." And, it's actually after that arc that people noticed it, since most people thought that Pell was dead for example. Also Crocodile didn't spare Luffy. The first time, he didn't see Luffy as a threat so him surviving or not was none of his concern, the second time, Luffy would have died if it wasn't for his luck (an important theme in One Piece). In both cases, it's Croc's sadism and overconfidence (2 prominents trait of his personality he used a lot to mess with Vivi's mind) that came back right at him. |

Josuke vs Rohan (just for the funny finish) Josuke and the Gang vs Kira Dai vs Hyunkel Dai vs half fire half freeze guy ._. |

| sasuke and friends vs killer B hisoka vs chrollo kurapika vs uvo yea I don't really like fights that much it's kind of surprising how many people are saying one piece fights. even putting my personal bias aside one piece fights have awful choreography and are very slow. some of the worst fights I've seen tbh |
