It's not always a bad thing. If the author has established the emotional narrative prior to the fight, the chorographer should be able to construct a technical narrative to match it. I don't think you'll ever get a GREAT fight scene, but you can easily get a good one.
All Might also shows up to every fight with a huge smile on his face because he wants to be a good example for the world. But when Nomu and the villains have been beating up on his students, that's the only time he snows up for a fight looking pissed as hell. It's such a good touch
love it when a usually calm character, just, loses it. Like Izuku trying to stay peaceful bUt WHEn someone else's life is on the line then Izu is automatically in full "I must protect this person" mode

FMA: Brotherhood did a great job of building characters up while keeping them apart. Solf J. Kimblee had, what, one fight scene in the entire series? But you had to be excited for it when it finally arrived.
Niizuma Eiji. He wins all fights be the virtue of the fact that his role in the argument is to pull the rug right under theirs. He wins because everyone else is too selfabsorbed and in aw of their powers elevating themselves from the rest of humanity while saitama realizes that all they truly have going for them is their unmatched power. Saitama wins because he's above everyone elses dick measuring contest because he realizes that its useless in terms of improving life conditions and finding fullfillment. Saitama wins because while everyone including saitama is obviously empty inside he neither tries distract himself from it nor does he kid himself that he isn't. Instead he chases after it bit it just so happens to be unclear for him where it lies and if something like fulfill ment even exists.
i think my favourite example of this is alphonse vs. kimblee. he's the more pacifistic brother, who had until that point refrained from using a philosphers stone, but now found himself and his mortally wounded friend in a position where they were too injured to continue and the only way to keep themselves alive was for al to not only charge into battle alone against some of the strongest, most deadly opponents in the show with no promise of victory, but also to compromise his morals (using the stone, fighting to kill). the choreography is insane, fluid, tight; and there's a ton of intense back and forth between them. i could go on at this length about the greedling vs bradley fight too. fmab is just wild.
IVCXMCM pro wrestling is an art. when u look deeper into the matches and the two wrestlers who are wrestling, it can become so much more better and beautiful.
IVCXMCM pro wrestling is an underrated way of art and sports entertainment. Many people can say that is bad because is fake. But is really satisfying when you see your favourite wrestler finally getting the gold. It's something you rarely see in actual fight sports like MMA or Box, maybe you have a favourite that is the favourite of many others, but that doesn't mean he will win.

Your description of the Way of the Dragon fight being dialogue hits really close to home. On the one hand, as a filmmaker that is absolutely what a fight needs to be. It must further the plot or be some interaction between characters, not just pretty action. On the other hand, as a martial artist, I always tell my students that a fight is like a conversation.
You forgot about the "tension" of the fight, there is no "tension" if you know they can just get the characters back to life if they lose or that the protagonist will just get a new power-up when it seems like they are gonna die or lose so the fight doesn't feel important
I can easily state the obvious and say Dragon Ball *COUGH* *COUGH* SUPER! But all I'm gonna say is I stopped watching Dragon Ball Super after episode 100 for good. Ok , *DRAGONBALL* *SUPER* ....
He basically covered that in the Emotional Narrative arc and the example of My Hero Academia. The emotional narrative essentially asks: what is at stake if each side loses?
Xion Bagel not counting overall, if you could take the best moments from GT, and the best moments from Super where do you rank Gt and Super on a scale of 1-10??
Xion Bagel I feel the exact same way, couldn't agree more. GT had very creative concepts, just sub par execution. Plus the beginning half of the series was.. was.... well, it was boring af. GT still imo had more memorable moments and more timeless events than Super has produced. Just not enough "umph". Super has had its impressive moments and concepts, but overall I feel as if I'm watching a fanfic or a very bold and adventurous video game alternate story line. *GT* : (6.5/10) - (GT just left a very somber and bittersweet tone. So even though I applaud them for killing characters off and having permanent consequences, often times it felt as though much of the universe we did love about DBZ was lost and forgotten.) *SUPER* : (6.5/10) - (Super does well at giving fans exactly what they want, only, it comes at the price of (cliche incoming) the soul of the dragon ball we know and love. The essence and consistency that we grew to love has become expendable, for whatever the newest "wow" moment can be to top the last big "wow" moment.) We can only hope Super goes further into the future, past the end of 'Z' and redeems both, the non canon and canon continuations we've gotten thus far.
Battles arent always deathmatches and sometimes not even anything of true value is on the line, yet there is still tension. When the personal reasons or the circumstamces force the fight it gives it a mix of tension and also hollowness. But the good kind. "A meaningless fight" is sometimes more effective than a standard battle with a clear goal. It all depends on the emotion.
"fights without physical interaction" Every game of Gungi between Meruem and Komugi. With every one building on the tention established in the ones prior.
I am Cancer totally, especially as someone that's been watching him since 400 subs, seeing such a fantastic channel grow so fast is is definitely something to celebrate.
It also says a lot about the apparent paradigm shift of the populace. I know I wouldn't have apologetically watched nearly as much anime about 5 or 7 years ago as I do now.
I knew you’d include the All Might vs Nomu fight before you actually mentioned it, I can’t watch that fight without having the shivers on the spine or tearing up.
I don't know why, but that is STILL my favorite fight in the show. It's probably that All Might's speech he gives to the League of Villains is incredible (especially in the dub), or just that it is immensely hype
What makes fight scenes interesting? -OP main character -flailing arms around -EXPLOSIONS -LASERBEAMS -announcing/explaining every attack -taking 10+ episodes -asspulls -boobs -butt shots -screaming -blood No, seriously though. Establishment of power levels, motives/ideology of the characters, high stakes, fight choreography/animation and fast pacing make fights interesting for me.
I know this comment may be a little late but I think sasuke said it best at the calley of the end in his first fight with naruto. "When two shinobi are powerful enough they can read each other's thoughts merely by an exchange of fists without ever uttering a single word..."
You forgot to mention just one more thing: Camerawork The 'boring fight' in K is mostly because of the lack of close up shot, not because the fight is bad; as you said it was choreographed pretty good Now compare to the fight of Hajime no Ippo and other battle manga, they actually include a lot of close shot and middle shot from different angles; camera angles also play an important role in fighting scene especially in fast paced fight Otherwise, it's a great video, keep it up
It also has to do with neither character's emotions really coming through in the storyboarding or attack effects. Misaki at that moment is straight-up pissed and confused at seeing Saruhiko, while Saruhiko is absolutely obsessed with maintaining Misaki's attention. Neither is really conveyed through the way they fight.
I know this is not exactly what the video was about but... hand to hand combat >>>> energy beams this is why I prefer retro shounen because they are more martial arts based and not not so much about planet destryong ablities This is also the reason why some series got less interesting over time like Naruto or DragonBall because they changed from the former to the latter
My favorite fights are in HunterxHunter, especially the later ones which get very technical but are almost always emotional whether in their development of the main characters or the sheer disparity of one of the fighters. Some of my favorite ones are fights that don't even involve much fighting, like Kurapika vs Chrollo and the spiders. He does fight Uvogin but when he got Chrollo that was the high emotional aspect of the very technical way he fought Uvogin who many more experienced fighters stood no chance against. Also the dodgeball fight which was just dodgeball to the extreme but it was very good.
Zetra7 one of the very few series that beat HXH for me is Fate zero. emotion drives almost all fights, there's tons of strategy, and to top it off they all look amazing
I'm so happy about that little nod you gave to Nakamura being the best at combining technical and emotional aspects of a fight. Dude is a freaking legend.
I love how you mentioned the All Might and Nomu fight. My God, that was one of the best fight scenes I've seen in recent times and I was totally hooked.
All I can think of are mangas unfortunately. Anyway, to get good romance you don't watch romance animes. Anyway here are a few I like in anime: Kara no Kyoukai -my favourite. Steins Gate had good romance. Baccano had some nice couples. My fav. being the burglars from the opening(the opening is awesome). Whispers of the heart -its a romance movie and corny as fck. I like it. That's all I can remember right now, these are the ones where romance was prominent and was good.
I'm at 4:48 in the video, and your comparison of Martial Combat to a conversation blows my mind! I'm a Martial Artist, and I've never REALLY understood the comparison of Martial Combat to dancing with a partner. I'm not a very good dancer, and I've barely ever danced with a partner. However, I consider myself a very good conversationalist! The comparison of Combat to Conversation now clicks in my head extremely well, and now I understand the missing element of the dance metaphor! Thank you for opening my eyes, :D!
I personally find one Berserk moment especially important to mention. It is when Guts was trying to leave The band of Hawk and Griffith himself dared stop him. The quite and still sight of snowy hills on the background, friends keeping their breath in awaitence of the battle and in the end the onle swing of a sword made the difference between Guts's life after and afore. It was not about technical part of the fight, because it was quite one, but it was about an immesurable emotional link among those characters
I interpreted it as a challenge of eachother's resolve for their dreams. Guts wanted to search for his own purpose so that he could stand as an equal whereas Griffith was not willing to give up his best tool for achieving his dream of building an empire.
Benjamin A few that stand out for me are Luffy vs Lucci Naruto vs Sasuke (all fights) Jonathan Joestar vs Dio (yeah, that battle was better than Jotaro vs Dio imho cause it had a greater emotional narrative) Roy Mustang vs Envy Sanosuke vs Anji the monk (Kenshin) And Spike Spiegel vs Vicious
Seeing the snippets of the Summer Wars fight really made me happy. The sound design mixed with the conflict against Love Machine made it feel so weighted and meaningful.
The fight scene between Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris is a great example. When I saw it as a kid, even at that age I understand what each character’s weakness and strengths were just by watching.
Matthew Lee Dude thank you, I was watching this on PS4 today and saw that scene. Paused. Opened up video on my phone just to scroll the comments to see if anyone else noticed and where to find more of that!! Where did that scene come frommmmm if anyone finds out pls comment
professional wrestling is absolutely awesome to watch, precisely because of what you describe here. People can mock wrestling all they want, for whatever reason besides being scripted because 99% of all TV is scripted.
I always find MHA's fight scenes great Especially because they don't last really long but are quite powerful It's rather about the narrative behind it Anime or manga, the battles last mostly for few seconds but I always felt like it was way more, they are that impactful And of course Naruto was just always beautiful in fights
Sebastian Erasmy I don't think even those hit that standard. Because if it did, he would be using them in the video. And the Luffy vs Doffy fight was awesome.....
I absolutely love one piece, it's probably my favorite anime, I recognize that it's not the 'best' in terms of quality but it is my favorite. That being said I hardly ever find the fights in One Piece to be very interesting to watch. They tend to be short and not have much build up or pay off. I think this is reflected in the fact that I've never really been compelled to go back and re-watch any fight scenes in One Piece, whereas in other anime I like to go back (Rock Lee Vs Gaara being one of my favorite).
I know, but he never once mentioned about One Piece..... which would really mean, he didn't think One Piece fight hit any standard for a good fight scenes.
*Plays Video* This isn't a Super Eyepatch Wolf Video without a reference to JOJO so it better be here *See's a reference to JoJo* YES YES YES YES....YES
I really appreciate you making this. I wanna animate a show or at least something with an action vibe before I die. This is good info you put out, thank you!
n0ame1u1 You should try magical rising project(Mahou Shoujo Ikusei Keikaku) awsome storytelling and animation. And brings technical and emotion fighting in one Its on youtube and Crunchyroll
It depends on the anime. A long-running shonen anime will have extremely long fight scenes, but outside of that you barely ever see fight scenes lasting for more than one or two episodes. I'd say that most fight scenes are far shorter than 17 minutes, especially considering that many anime are only 4 hours (12 episodes) long. I mean, just look at Mob Psycho 100, or the Fate series, or the Index series, or DanMachi, or Fullmetal Alchemist/Brotherhood, or the Magi series, or Nanatsu no Taizai, or basically any show that's less than 50 episodes long. Most fight scenes are resolved within 20 minutes, almost all are resolved within 40, and none that I can think of last over an hour. EDIT: I realize that FMA Brotherhood is over 50 episodes long, but whatever.
What makes a Yaoi interesting? Personally, I think it's a fantastic genre because I can watch gay people do gay things, but I'm not gay for watching it, it's the characters who are gay for actually doing it. I'm not gay. You're gay.
I'm coming back to this video shortly after having watched Chihayafuru, a prime example of a non-battle battle series, and I'm realizing one it's big strengths is how much narrative weight it can put on each fight. There's a technical aspect to that it explains, arguably overly so, but how much emotion is put into it is really part of why the series shines. And it's why there's two fights within about 4 episodes of each other that got me so invested I almost cried at the results.
Doppio vs Risotto, a perfect example of a gloriously written fight scene, with their unique abilities interacting in unique ways and both trying to find a way to outsmart the other.
Of course you amazingly covered the emotional and physical aspect of a fight scene but i think when it comes to the entertaining aspect of a fight its a whole different story.I think most modern films ruin fight sequences by trying to follow every single move a character makes during a fight (punches,kicks...etc) by either shaking the camera every time the somebody hits someone else or by having the camera being really close to a character.But I think every fight scene between two people should have a wider camera angle.Take most of Rock Lee´s fights for example... in every single one you can always see (if lees combatant is a melee fighter) lee and his enemy all the time, this creates a epic sense of....well....epicness to the fight and that is what I think makes a fight scene truly great!

One of my favorite anime fight scenes is in Rurouni Kenshin, when Saito reappears in Kenshin's life to test his abilities. The way that Kenshin's "Battousai" personality begins to surface is chilling. One of the best skin-tingling emotional moments in the show
I legot cry every time the fight between nomu and all might do their fight scene. It's so emotionally driven with EXCELLENT dialogue and voice acting in both subs and dubs. All Might's ark, in general, is a very intense and emotional arc which gets to me every time.
This is why the fight between Goku and Piccolo Daimao from the original Dragon Ball is one of my favourite from the entire series. It is both a technical and emotional chalange for Goku, who is facing the most unbelivebly powerful being he ever encountered (up until that point, of course) and also the monster who was responsible for his best friend's death.
True.... but during king piccolo vs goku, shenron had been killed by King piccolo, so at that point Go just thought that he could never bring back krillin
In my opinion it is the background and feeling that a combat has, of course, animation is a vital element to enjoy it but as beautiful as it is an animation if the purpose of the fight is something empty and without motives other than being only "spectacular" it fails, and it remains as just a beautiful demonstration of how beautiful we cheer, and for the fight to be interesting a scenario is required, that there is a relationship between the combatants and a plausible choreography in the same world
ahmed paracha I think superman is actually quite a fascinating character to look on how an alien with no initial connection to Earth or its culture is one of the most human heroes in DC Comics
I'm pretty late but that Naruto excuse is so dumb. We already saw it,in both fights (when they were young and now) that they used everything they had in their arsenal to fight against Sasuke,yes he never wanted to kill Sasuke,but he surely wanted to beat him which remains the same. It's like saying a boxer never goes full on in a fight because he doesn't want to kill his opponent.
@@thedevilsadvocate4854 When talking about stuff like power-scaling and vs arguments, it's important. It's pretty clear that Naruto wasn't fighting with deadly intent, he took on the more difficult role of trying to subdue Sasuke without killing him. Sasuke did not. That's incredibly important to the narrative though. Naruto refused to lose his friend- even though he had the power to kill him and save the world that way, Naruto wasn't going to settle. He was going to save the world by saving his best friend. As silly as it may sound, I'm dead serious when I say that Naruto is an example of what a true friend looks like. It's not the "let me know if you need me" or "when it's convenient" kind of friend. The whole world was literally at stake- and yet he refused to let his friend completely fall.
@@jacobjensen7704 I understand your statement about friendship and agree with it but the rest was clear that Naruto never limited himself, he even straight up came up with attacsk that we never saw before (meaning he went beyond what he was against Kaguya and such), he clearly was in an intent to stop him/destroy him if it has to be. As he said in the first fight, he could break all of his bones he doesn't care, he just wants him back.
Here's my take: - make impossible dodges, like a limbo or ones where they actually get hurt a little (like a knife throw and they cut their cheek) - slow motion, a little, like in those dodges, but to create suspense (example, future diary "this is not how I die") or when they land a critical hit - expressions, not facial expressions, but also body language. like for example, voice breaking and sloppy fighting in emotional scenes. or a wide smile and jester-like attitude if they aren't taking it seriously. - reason, don't make them fight just because unless that's the whole point.
one of my favorite fights in all of anime is one I feel no one would pick, and that's ken oyanagi vs rohan where they play RPS. While it seems average at first, it perfectly conveys how ken try's to live up to rohan and shows his mental fortitude, whilst showing rohan's confusion but also his underlying genius. Also its just really entertaining I love watching it.
am i the only one who watches his videos as an asmr while working? srsly, the relaxing voice + interesting subjects + accurate points combo is just the best thing on yt
Best anime fight ever? Easy. Risotto Nero vs. Vinegar Doppio. It’s god damn amazing. Neither characters are the protagonist, both characters are damn evil people, and you kind of root for both of them. It’s a terrifying battle that was the most phenomenally animated scene I have ever seen in my entire life.
Coming back to this video after watching Shang-Chi is pretty great. I think that multiple fights in that movie are an excellent example of what Super Eyepatch Wolf was talking about here.
Your content is amazing to hear, coming from someone who's trying to get off the ground as a writer...but, mentioning Pro Wrestling sealed the deal for me! You got a new sub!
I checked out your patreon and I am interested, I just like an explanation on how the donation per video model will work because I am use to patreons donating by month.
All it means is that whenever I post a video, you however you much you pledged gets donated, so if you post 1$ and I post 3 vids a month, then that's 3$ a month.
I think unless you have a clear video schedule so that people know exactly how many videos you'll make a month, and thus how much money they will be donating a month, this system isn't good at all.
So I watched this video and thought it was really cool. The next night, I watch John Wick for the first time, and I can tell this video truly impacted how I read the fights scenes in that movie. Kudos to you for making this!

I remember reading once, that if your entire fight scene can be boiled down to the phrase "They Fight", you have written a bad fight scene.
you didn't read that , you heard it from a chris stuckman video about action movies today.
Med Sidimed actually it was from his review of The Matrix where he brought up how every detail was pre-scripted right down to the choreography
I think someone said that about the Star Wars prequels. George Lucas literally wrote "they fight" for the fight scenes.
It's not always a bad thing. If the author has established the emotional narrative prior to the fight, the chorographer should be able to construct a technical narrative to match it. I don't think you'll ever get a GREAT fight scene, but you can easily get a good one.
Are you referring to "Why Pirates of the Carribean is the best movie by Shark Punch Studios"?
"There's even several series with great 'fight' scenes where physical confrontation doesn't even come into it."

Best fight in Naruto,
Pain vs Naruto is the perfect example, so much is on the line and both are fighting for so much. It describes the exact thing he spoke of perfectly.
i think my favourite example of this is alphonse vs. kimblee. he's the more pacifistic brother, who had until that point refrained from using a philosphers stone, but now found himself and his mortally wounded friend in a position where they were too injured to continue and the only way to keep themselves alive was for al to not only charge into battle alone against some of the strongest, most deadly opponents in the show with no promise of victory, but also to compromise his morals (using the stone, fighting to kill). the choreography is insane, fluid, tight; and there's a ton of intense back and forth between them. i could go on at this length about the greedling vs bradley fight too. fmab is just wild.

This pretty much explains the reason why I love One Piece the fight scenes aren't always amazing but its the outcome that matters
I still don’t know how in retrospective did they have a genuine emotional fight over Luffy protecting a dog’s food.
@@glennb6020 it’s just the glory of one piece
Dragon Ball is almost the same
Until the godly animation in the super Broly came out
The fight scenes ARE always amazing, no idea on what you're saying here.
@@Gadget-Walkmen It's really not
Your description of the Way of the Dragon fight being dialogue hits really close to home. On the one hand, as a filmmaker that is absolutely what a fight needs to be. It must further the plot or be some interaction between characters, not just pretty action. On the other hand, as a martial artist, I always tell my students that a fight is like a conversation.
Josh in the Shell sometimes a fight is like a debate and other times it’s malarkey

You forgot about the "tension" of the fight, there is no "tension" if you know they can just get the characters back to life if they lose or that the protagonist will just get a new power-up when it seems like they are gonna die or lose so the fight doesn't feel important
I can easily state the obvious and say Dragon Ball *COUGH* *COUGH* SUPER! But all I'm gonna say is I stopped watching Dragon Ball Super after episode 100 for good.
Ok , *DRAGONBALL* *SUPER* ....
He basically covered that in the Emotional Narrative arc and the example of My Hero Academia. The emotional narrative essentially asks: what is at stake if each side loses?
Xion Bagel not counting overall, if you could take the best moments from GT, and the best moments from Super where do you rank Gt and Super on a scale of 1-10??
Xion Bagel I feel the exact same way, couldn't agree more. GT had very creative concepts, just sub par execution. Plus the beginning half of the series was.. was.... well, it was boring af.
GT still imo had more memorable moments and more timeless events than Super has produced. Just not enough "umph".
Super has had its impressive moments and concepts, but overall I feel as if I'm watching a fanfic or a very bold and adventurous video game alternate story line.
*GT* : (6.5/10) -
(GT just left a very somber and bittersweet tone. So even though I applaud them for killing characters off and having permanent consequences, often times it felt as though much of the universe we did love about DBZ was lost and forgotten.)
*SUPER* : (6.5/10) -
(Super does well at giving fans exactly what they want, only, it comes at the price of (cliche incoming) the soul of the dragon ball we know and love. The essence and consistency that we grew to love has become expendable, for whatever the newest "wow" moment can be to top the last big "wow" moment.)
We can only hope Super goes further into the future, past the end of 'Z' and redeems both, the non canon and canon continuations we've gotten thus far.
Battles arent always deathmatches and sometimes not even anything of true value is on the line, yet there is still tension. When the personal reasons or the circumstamces force the fight it gives it a mix of tension and also hollowness. But the good kind.
"A meaningless fight" is sometimes more effective than a standard battle with a clear goal. It all depends on the emotion.
"fights without physical interaction"
Every game of Gungi between Meruem and Komugi. With every one building on the tention established in the ones prior.

I'm really happy for John the creator of SuperEyePatchWolf for coming so far. If only people would also check out his podcast "Let's Fight A Boss."

"Professional Wrestling is anime" - Super Eyepatch Wolf 2017
I knew you’d include the All Might vs Nomu fight before you actually mentioned it, I can’t watch that fight without having the shivers on the spine or tearing up.
Daddy Skee
legitimately almost every fight in bnha just kills me lol,, every Izuku fight has so many levels
I don't know why, but that is STILL my favorite fight in the show. It's probably that All Might's speech he gives to the League of Villains is incredible (especially in the dub), or just that it is immensely hype
What makes fight scenes interesting?
-OP main character
-flailing arms around
-EXPLOSIONS
-LASERBEAMS
-announcing/explaining every attack
-taking 10+ episodes
-asspulls
-boobs
-butt shots
-screaming
-blood
No, seriously though. Establishment of power levels, motives/ideology of the characters, high stakes, fight choreography/animation and fast pacing make fights interesting for me.
Marcelo Guerrero if you haven't I recommend Fate and Fate stay night UBW. they fit your specifications perfectly.
what about the obligatory baseball episode
Marcelo Guerrero hey, does anyone know the name of the anime from 00:29? It looks soo dope! Thx
Nvm i found it thx 😅
Summer Wars is one of my fave feel good movies. you should def check it out ;u;
I know this comment may be a little late but I think sasuke said it best at the calley of the end in his first fight with naruto. "When two shinobi are powerful enough they can read each other's thoughts merely by an exchange of fists without ever uttering a single word..."

Ok
You forgot to mention just one more thing: Camerawork
The 'boring fight' in K is mostly because of the lack of close up shot, not because the fight is bad; as you said it was choreographed pretty good
Now compare to the fight of Hajime no Ippo and other battle manga, they actually include a lot of close shot and middle shot from different angles; camera angles also play an important role in fighting scene especially in fast paced fight
Otherwise, it's a great video, keep it up
donflamingo795 those are actually medium shots. A close up is fairly closer to the focal point (tl;dr version of a Film Riot video I saw)
It also has to do with neither character's emotions really coming through in the storyboarding or attack effects. Misaki at that moment is straight-up pissed and confused at seeing Saruhiko, while Saruhiko is absolutely obsessed with maintaining Misaki's attention. Neither is really conveyed through the way they fight.
You're talking bullshit.

hand to hand combat >>>> energy beams
this is why I prefer retro shounen because they are more martial arts based and not not so much about planet destryong ablities
This is also the reason why some series got less interesting over time like Naruto or DragonBall because they changed from the former to the latter
WickedAnimeTroll energy beams are cool when done right.Gohan vs Cell Goku vs Vegeta ec
this is why I dislike dragon ball. only jojo can pull an energy beam and still make it interesting

crzyboy190 super fly vs josuke,sheer heart attack,and others I can't recall or don't know of yet.
My favorite fights are in HunterxHunter, especially the later ones which get very technical but are almost always emotional whether in their development of the main characters or the sheer disparity of one of the fighters. Some of my favorite ones are fights that don't even involve much fighting, like Kurapika vs Chrollo and the spiders. He does fight Uvogin but when he got Chrollo that was the high emotional aspect of the very technical way he fought Uvogin who many more experienced fighters stood no chance against. Also the dodgeball fight which was just dodgeball to the extreme but it was very good.
Gave it like
Zetra7 one of the very few series that beat HXH for me is Fate zero. emotion drives almost all fights, there's tons of strategy, and to top it off they all look amazing
So glad you brought up that fight in Toradora. It's my favorite scene in the show.
And a pivotal point in the plot!
I'm so happy about that little nod you gave to Nakamura being the best at combining technical and emotional aspects of a fight. Dude is a freaking legend.

ps congrats on passing 100k!
FlamingCookie try the anime movie your name (you will thank me)
watch or read Touch or Cross Game
Dream High Animation like the end of bleach it was not forced at all
All I can think of are mangas unfortunately. Anyway, to get good romance you don't watch romance animes.
Anyway here are a few I like in anime:
Kara no Kyoukai -my favourite.
Steins Gate had good romance.
Baccano had some nice couples. My fav. being the burglars from the opening(the opening is awesome).
Whispers of the heart -its a romance movie and corny as fck. I like it.
That's all I can remember right now, these are the ones where romance was prominent and was good.

I'm at 4:48 in the video, and your comparison of Martial Combat to a conversation blows my mind!
I'm a Martial Artist, and I've never REALLY understood the comparison of Martial Combat to dancing with a partner. I'm not a very good dancer, and I've barely ever danced with a partner. However, I consider myself a very good conversationalist! The comparison of Combat to Conversation now clicks in my head extremely well, and now I understand the missing element of the dance metaphor!

I personally find one Berserk moment especially important to mention. It is when Guts was trying to leave The band of Hawk and Griffith himself dared stop him. The quite and still sight of snowy hills on the background, friends keeping their breath in awaitence of the battle and in the end the onle swing of a sword made the difference between Guts's life after and afore. It was not about technical part of the fight, because it was quite one, but it was about an immesurable emotional link among those characters
I interpreted it as a challenge of eachother's resolve for their dreams. Guts wanted to search for his own purpose so that he could stand as an equal whereas Griffith was not willing to give up his best tool for achieving his dream of building an empire.
Luffy vs Rob Lucci is possibly my favorite example of this.
"I won't fall until I kick your ass."
Benjamin A few that stand out for me are
Luffy vs Lucci
Naruto vs Sasuke (all fights)
Jonathan Joestar vs Dio (yeah, that battle was better than Jotaro vs Dio imho cause it had a greater emotional narrative)
Roy Mustang vs Envy
Sanosuke vs Anji the monk (Kenshin)
And Spike Spiegel vs Vicious
COUGH Ussop vs Luffy COUGH
Hopefully one day we will get luffy vs shanks, that would be inspirational
To me, the best fight in anime was the Luffy & Usop Fight.

-Dialogue
-Action

Seeing the snippets of the Summer Wars fight really made me happy. The sound design mixed with the conflict against Love Machine made it feel so weighted and meaningful.
The fight scene between Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris is a great example. When I saw it as a kid, even at that age I understand what each character’s weakness and strengths were just by watching.

Dude thank you, I was watching this on PS4 today and saw that scene. Paused. Opened up video on my phone just to scroll the comments to see if anyone else noticed and where to find more of that!! Where did that scene come frommmmm if anyone finds out pls comment
professional wrestling is absolutely awesome to watch, precisely because of what you describe here. People can mock wrestling all they want, for whatever reason besides being scripted because 99% of all TV is scripted.
Professional wrestling is stupid
Macho Man Randy Savage is the best anime character
It's really just longform live theatre in the action genre with a sports aesthetic. Say what you will, I still enjoy the special event matches.
Because the script in this kind of wrestling is just too apparent, for some people at least.

Wat?
I always find MHA's fight scenes great
Especially because they don't last really long but are quite powerful
It's rather about the narrative behind it
Anime or manga, the battles last mostly for few seconds but I always felt like it was way more, they are that impactful
And of course Naruto was just always beautiful in fights
That Tekken Tag Tournament music was a nice touch. Dude loves fighting games way too much! Lol
Can you tell me the name of the track?? I've been looking for it everywhere.
The song SEW uses in the video is from the Tekken Tag Tournament's intro.
does it mean that the fights in One Piece did not even hit the standard of a good fight scenes?
it depends of the fight. Doffy vs Luffy was lame. Luffy vs Lucci? Luffy vs Usopp? Luffy vs. Crocodile? those are damn good.
Sebastian Erasmy I don't think even those hit that standard. Because if it did, he would be using them in the video.
And the Luffy vs Doffy fight was awesome.....
Kenny Lee Jian Siong He showed scenes from all of those fights except the Crocodile one
I absolutely love one piece, it's probably my favorite anime, I recognize that it's not the 'best' in terms of quality but it is my favorite.
That being said I hardly ever find the fights in One Piece to be very interesting to watch. They tend to be short and not have much build up or pay off.
I think this is reflected in the fact that I've never really been compelled to go back and re-watch any fight scenes in One Piece, whereas in other anime I like to go back (Rock Lee Vs Gaara being one of my favorite).
I know, but he never once mentioned about One Piece..... which would really mean, he didn't think One Piece fight hit any standard for a good fight scenes.
*Plays Video*
This isn't a Super Eyepatch Wolf Video without a reference to JOJO so it better be here

Also Congrats on 100k Subs been watching you since your first video
And let's not forget the amazingly questionable grammar, "technicle"? really?
I really appreciate you making this. I wanna animate a show or at least something with an action vibe before I die. This is good info you put out, thank you!
"A mere 17 minutes" yes, because 17 minutes is ridiculously short for a fight scene.
n0ame1u1 Do you even Dragon Ball bro ?
n0ame1u1 You should try magical rising project(Mahou Shoujo Ikusei Keikaku) awsome storytelling and animation. And brings technical and emotion fighting in one Its on youtube and Crunchyroll
Do you know anime? Fight scenes are around 30 to 2 hours and if you have a problem with that then just don't watch anime.
It depends on the anime. A long-running shonen anime will have extremely long fight scenes, but outside of that you barely ever see fight scenes lasting for more than one or two episodes. I'd say that most fight scenes are far shorter than 17 minutes, especially considering that many anime are only 4 hours (12 episodes) long. I mean, just look at Mob Psycho 100, or the Fate series, or the Index series, or DanMachi, or Fullmetal Alchemist/Brotherhood, or the Magi series, or Nanatsu no Taizai, or basically any show that's less than 50 episodes long. Most fight scenes are resolved within 20 minutes, almost all are resolved within 40, and none that I can think of last over an hour.
EDIT: I realize that FMA Brotherhood is over 50 episodes long, but whatever.
n0ame1u1 well actually the fight is only about two and a half minutes
What makes a Yaoi interesting?

Ladiesman69 your username just adds to the joke. i love it.
Ladiesman69 to be quite honest yaoi/yuri/gay narrative can be interesting if is treated as a love story and not just a fetish
Arausito That's the problem with anime that they don't treat maturely. It's basically bullshit for the fangirls and sorta bs.

Edit: fuck never mind you said that too
I'm coming back to this video shortly after having watched Chihayafuru, a prime example of a non-battle battle series, and I'm realizing one it's big strengths is how much narrative weight it can put on each fight. There's a technical aspect to that it explains, arguably overly so, but how much emotion is put into it is really part of why the series shines. And it's why there's two fights within about 4 episodes of each other that got me so invested I almost cried at the results.
Doppio vs Risotto, a perfect example of a gloriously written fight scene, with their unique abilities interacting in unique ways and both trying to find a way to outsmart the other.

He said he cant really get into the series in one of his videos.
First reason....its a shit anime and can't compared to the marvelous JoJo or Gundam
Naruto vs. Pain has some of the best fighting I've ever seen in an anime, the animation is just beautiful
CoolOrange4 Ye I know I was joking
Shirno Honestly aside from the 'my pain is far greater than yours' scene I really enjoyed the fluid animation in that fight
Black&Blue Same.
I really liked naruto's entrance. It got me really hyped which made the fight that much more disappointing
Shirno lol
Damn this was too short, time flies while watching these.
Camera movement is extremely important
Camera movement correlates with movement of the characters in a fight scene
In animation that is
I'm getting as excited about every One Piece scene shown as my dog gets excited seeing me coming home after school :3
Of course you amazingly covered the emotional and physical aspect of a fight scene but i think when it comes to the entertaining aspect of a fight its a whole different story.I think most modern films ruin fight sequences by trying to follow every single move a character makes during a fight (punches,kicks...etc) by either shaking the camera every time the somebody hits someone else or by having the camera being really close to a character.But I think every fight scene between two people should have a wider camera angle.Take most of Rock Lee´s fights for example... in every single one you can always see (if lees combatant is a melee fighter) lee and his enemy all the time, this creates a epic sense of....well....epicness to the fight and that is what I think makes a fight scene truly great!

"Two beautiful dudes wailing on each other" hahaha I laughed more than I should have.

I'm developing a webcomic and several other stories I plan on turning into games at some point, and every single time I watch one of these vids from you, you instantly inspire me to work on my projects (normally similar videos take a few tries but yours seems to always hit that mark in one go). I love your work here and I'm upset I'm too poor to donate money but know that if I could, I would be donating as much as possible. Each one of these videos is an eye-opener. I hope you never stop creating : ]
One of my favorite anime fight scenes is in Rurouni Kenshin, when Saito reappears in Kenshin's life to test his abilities. The way that Kenshin's "Battousai" personality begins to surface is chilling. One of the best skin-tingling emotional moments in the show
I legot cry every time the fight between nomu and all might do their fight scene. It's so emotionally driven with EXCELLENT dialogue and voice acting in both subs and dubs. All Might's ark, in general, is a very intense and emotional arc which gets to me every time.
This is why the fight between Goku and Piccolo Daimao from the original Dragon Ball is one of my favourite from the entire series. It is both a technical and emotional chalange for Goku, who is facing the most unbelivebly powerful being he ever encountered (up until that point, of course) and also the monster who was responsible for his best friend's death.
you mean that 1 friend that came back to life? :D
True.... but during king piccolo vs goku, shenron had been killed by King piccolo, so at that point Go just thought that he could never bring back krillin
Toradora Tiga fight scene is the best scene ever
I don't even know the context of the fight, yet I am highly aroused by its choreography.
ADAM GENESIS I skipped it
I think haikyuu has one of the best 'fight' scenes. Especially in their match with shiratorizawa and second match against aoba johsai
In my opinion it is the background and feeling that a combat has, of course, animation is a vital element to enjoy it but as beautiful as it is an animation if the purpose of the fight is something empty and without motives other than being only "spectacular" it fails, and it remains as just a beautiful demonstration of how beautiful we cheer, and for the fight to be interesting a scenario is required, that there is a relationship between the combatants and a plausible choreography in the same world

Roblox&MinecraftPokemonMaster777 truth
Definitely the final fight between Naruto and Sasuke. Everything went right. Perfection.
Such is Life agreed
Such is Life Except Naruto wasn't really going full power because he didn't wanna kill Sasuke.
I'm pretty late but that Naruto excuse is so dumb. We already saw it,in both fights (when they were young and now) that they used everything they had in their arsenal to fight against Sasuke,yes he never wanted to kill Sasuke,but he surely wanted to beat him which remains the same. It's like saying a boxer never goes full on in a fight because he doesn't want to kill his opponent.
@@thedevilsadvocate4854 When talking about stuff like power-scaling and vs arguments, it's important. It's pretty clear that Naruto wasn't fighting with deadly intent, he took on the more difficult role of trying to subdue Sasuke without killing him. Sasuke did not.
That's incredibly important to the narrative though. Naruto refused to lose his friend- even though he had the power to kill him and save the world that way, Naruto wasn't going to settle. He was going to save the world by saving his best friend.
As silly as it may sound, I'm dead serious when I say that Naruto is an example of what a true friend looks like. It's not the "let me know if you need me" or "when it's convenient" kind of friend. The whole world was literally at stake- and yet he refused to let his friend completely fall.
@@jacobjensen7704 I understand your statement about friendship and agree with it but the rest was clear that Naruto never limited himself, he even straight up came up with attacsk that we never saw before (meaning he went beyond what he was against Kaguya and such), he clearly was in an intent to stop him/destroy him if it has to be. As he said in the first fight, he could break all of his bones he doesn't care, he just wants him back.
Here's my take:
- make impossible dodges, like a limbo or ones where they actually get hurt a little (like a knife throw and they cut their cheek)
- slow motion, a little, like in those dodges, but to create suspense (example, future diary "this is not how I die") or when they land a critical hit
- expressions, not facial expressions, but also body language. like for example, voice breaking and sloppy fighting in emotional scenes. or a wide smile and jester-like attitude if they aren't taking it seriously.
- reason, don't make them fight just because unless that's the whole point.
one of my favorite fights in all of anime is one I feel no one would pick, and that's ken oyanagi vs rohan where they play RPS. While it seems average at first, it perfectly conveys how ken try's to live up to rohan and shows his mental fortitude, whilst showing rohan's confusion but also his underlying genius. Also its just really entertaining I love watching it.
This is exactly why Fate Stay/Night fights are so enthralling and deep.
Where are the Aang vs Zuko clips from? Definitely not from the show
I would like to know if as well

Super Eyepatch Wolf :D
Just wait till my hero academia season gets released. All might vs All for One, the most emotional chapters I've ever read in a manga
Best anime fight ever? Easy. Risotto Nero vs. Vinegar Doppio. It’s god damn amazing. Neither characters are the protagonist, both characters are damn evil people, and you kind of root for both of them. It’s a terrifying battle that was the most phenomenally animated scene I have ever seen in my entire life.
Coming back to this video after watching Shang-Chi is pretty great. I think that multiple fights in that movie are an excellent example of what Super Eyepatch Wolf was talking about here.
Your content is amazing to hear, coming from someone who's trying to get off the ground as a writer...but, mentioning Pro Wrestling sealed the deal for me! You got a new sub!
I checked out your patreon and I am interested, I just like an explanation on how the donation per video model will work because I am use to patreons donating by month.
All it means is that whenever I post a video, you however you much you pledged gets donated, so if you post 1$ and I post 3 vids a month, then that's 3$ a month.
whats the name of the anime at 0:28?
Super Eyepatch Wolf no,don't do that. I don't want rushed videos.
summer wars
I think unless you have a clear video schedule so that people know exactly how many videos you'll make a month, and thus how much money they will be donating a month, this system isn't good at all.
2:00 I fucking love this Naruto ending. It brings so much nostalgia into my life
I love how you can make a good fight scene into an even better fight scene with the amount detail you give.
Congrats on 100k subs btw 👍🏻
The best example of the perfect blend is the gon vs pitou.
Though all hunter x hunter fights were top tier especially the board game ones haha.
Meruem Vs netero 👌
So I watched this video and thought it was really cool. The next night, I watch John Wick for the first time, and I can tell this video truly impacted how I read the fights scenes in that movie. Kudos to you for making this!
