Sometimes when a fight goes excessively long with a crazy large amount of episodes which might bore the viewer. Most of the long running battle shounen animes tend to extend these major boss battles to the point of being ridiculous. well, people who have seen a show like DBZ are familiar with that pain.
Discuss with your opinion, or include some ridiculously long battles you have endured.

Those are multiple fights though, so are we talking a 1 on 1 fight, or multiple fights talking place at once?

The Frieza vs Goku battle was 20 chapters long and was adapted into 19 episodes.

Naruto vs Tobi lasted like 80 chapters. It started on episode 323 and finished in episode 380 although there were some filler episodes in between (17 of them).

122 only had talk and no fight. 123 & 124 both focused on other characters (Netero & Meruem didn't even appear). The actual fight lasted an episode and a half ( 125 (Second half) and 126). Still the longest fight though.

IKR, they really need to make "Naruto: Shippuuden Kai" and Shorten these long battles with deleting all these fillers.

I don't watch long running battle shounen. Even if a single battle took up an entire 1 cour anime, that would only be 13 episodes, which isn't that long compared to some battles.

I'm certain it was something from DBZ, and that's likely one of the main reasons I'm not a big fan of it, and I prefer the original Dragon Ball instead.

No doubt some fight from DBZ. Which one is the longest, I don't give as fuck enough to check. The fights are average and nothing really goes on besides them so it's double boring.

Probably something from Naruto or DBZ. But what felt the longest was probably whatever watered-down 'action' was happening in God Eater ep 2.

DBZ had one of the longest fight arcs, mainly due to non-stop talking, and repeat and rinse flash attacks. (The camera spinning and see shockwaves exploding around.)

I would say One Piece (But than again it was not focused on the actual main battle but single groups as it was going along. But yes it was long I think 30-50 episodes including the prison arc.)

Hunter X Hunter fights are nice they aren't too long and are sweet because its either short or aslong as an episode.

I would say Yu Yu Hakusho has the longest fight scenes.

Some are quick like Hiei versus shouryu. Or as long as Yusuke vs Shindo.

I enjoy shorter fights than longer fights more because it feels more realistic, and the animation is usually kept at a good consistency.

Its obvious Naruto gonna win this, the power of fillers! Flashback no jutsu! Its stupid that they can have tons of flashback about anything in middle of a battle. Like walking like this remind me the time when blablablabala, seeing him do this remind when I was 8 years blablablablablabal, getting my ass kicked me remind of the time when someone kicked my ass 50 years ago blablablabala. Fuck it.

You're all saying "don't say dbz", but when I was a kid the cell saga and its fight was the longest thing ever, broadcasting for one whole year (due to also having constant repeats). This is why I hate that saga the most.

It wasn't a continuous fight, there were many things happening, it wasn't like Goku vs Frieza.

Only one I remember was back when I was a kid and I watch Goku vs Freiza. Even after Goku turn Super Saiyan the fight would last on forever due to them talking and cutting back to the other character.

Like some of the others mentioned in this thread, that wasn't a continuous fight. A lot of other stuff was shown at the same time.

DBZ version of Goku vs Frieza is factually the longest anime fight in the history of the medium . Goku recovers at episode 85 and begins fighting Frieza at episode 86"Such Regret...!! Vegeta, Pride of the Saiyans, Dies". The fight ends at episode 105 "Freeza Defeated!! A Single Blast Packed with a Totality of Rage" thus making it 19 episodes long. I'm hoping that DBZ is recognized for this the same way Sazae- San was for having the most episodes of any tv series.

Naruto vs Tobi is definitely longer, its 4 times as many chapters in the manga.

Sure but they'd have to adapt 4 chapters per episode for it to be the same length so I'm pretty sure its longer. Plus Frieza vs Goku is only long because Toei pads the shit out of all of their long running shows. Dio's World is 4 episodes in SC S2 but its only 1 less chapter than Frieza vs Goku in the manga.

Another one was from kaiji s2 with kaiji vs the bog. Man that shit took way too long.

Tobi vs Naruto is probably longer in the manga than Goku vs Frieza although as a singular continuous fight I doubt that. Tobi went to fight Kakashi and then went back to Naruto . Pierrot pads a lot also by using filler flashbacks when it comes to Shippuden.

Luffy vs Lucci went on for a while, but there were other things going on outside of the fight, so one probably wouldn't notice how long the fight was. In reality the entire fight could fit 2-3 episodes. But it was going on for over like 10-15 episodes.
