this is ashley with watch mojo and today
we're counting down our picks for the
top 10 anime fights we waited years to
see
[Music]
for this list we'll be looking at
battles across anime that took forever
to finally arrive
and for the most part proved to be worth
the wait
is there an anime slugfest you are still
holding out for let us know in the
comments
and as always you can catch me on
twitter at ashjaebow
so head over there give me a follow let
me know which anime list you want to see
next
number 10 kaneki vs arima tokyo ghoul re
root a had a lot of things wrong with it
but one of its biggest
transgressions is off-screening the
final fight between super ghoul kaneki
and the ultimate ccg soldier in the form
of arima
thankfully it was later rectified during
the latter half of its sequel series
with kaneki reclaiming his memory and
returning to the home team
he's forced to battle against the man he
once considered a father figure
it was a long time coming but we finally
got to see the kagune versus quinky
battle
we had been waiting for ok re you get
one point for that
[Music]
number nine kirito versus poe sodor
online alicization
war of underworld remember life in
coffin
[Music]
that group of players who were dead set
on taking pvp to new extremes
in sword art online well after many
years
we'd finally see their leader again
during the final arc
of the battle for underworld
[Music]
unlike his lackeys poh is a tough sob
making the ideal foe to herald the
return of kirito
while his ferocity nearly gets the
better of the black swordsman
the sudden return of his sao op status
quickly turns the tide
after such a lethal spree of trolling
being turned into a tree for eternity
seems like a fitting end
number 8 luffy versus doflamingo one
piece
every time the straw hat set sail you
can always count on a new villainous
buccaneer
to show up though none had as much
buildup as the self-proclaimed
king of dressrosa
starting off as a mischievous side
character during the battle at marine
forward
to a weapon smuggler unafraid of using
children as test subjects
and finally as a tyrannical overlord he
wouldn't hesitate to slaughter his own
citizens to get what he wanted
doflamingo was a special kind of scumbag
thankfully karma came back to bite him
courtesy of leafy's gear fourth
resulting in one of the franchise's best
battles to date
number seven kentoki vs takasugi gintama
in between the crass comedy and fourth
wall breaks kintogi found time to slide
in some intense drama
and brutal sword fights and no character
brought both to the surface
quite as much as the black beast
in the shadows and causing no end of
trouble we finally were given the chance
to see just how dangerous he was
when he and gin clashed blades during
the attempt
on the shogun's life
there was nothing funny about seeing
these two nearly rip each other apart
but it was epic
number six natsu this is seraph fairy
tale
the primary evil responsible for pretty
much everything heinous in the series
up until that point
[Music]
a duel between the dark mage and the
salamander was bound to happen sooner or
later
and while their first bouts might have
ended in zarif flexing his immortality
it did show as just how powerful nancy
had become during his years of training
armed with the fire dragon king mode the
only thing
more devastating than nazi's punch was
hearing the truth
about end
number 5 shah vs amaro mobile suit
gundam
char's counter attack they've nearly
blown each other to pieces in their
respective
mobile suits speed each other in an
impromptu
fencing match and roasted each other
through their temporary team up
throughout zeta
and yet fans still wanted to see this
legendary rivalry flare up
one last time with shaw gone off the
deep end and fully committed to
destroying the earth
it falls to amero and his all-powerful
new gundam
to ensure that history repeats itself
once more with a final mecca showdown
now that's how you go out swinging
captain number four ash versus gary
pokemon hey watch where you're going
well you must be ash better late than
never i guess
at least you get the chance to meet me
there was only so many smelly laters
that ash was going to take before he
pushed back
and what better way to settle things
than in a 6v6 pokemon battle
where the world could see who the true
pallet town prodigy was
get behind blastoise
that skull bash is right on target with
a diverse team of heavy hitters
it's one of the few times where the
anime truly captured the spirit of the
classic games
especially with the final bouts
involving charizard and blastoise
screw type advantages it was worth it to
see gary's dreams crumble
i won and i beat gary
number three ichigo this is eisen bleach
it may have all been part of eisen's
plan but that didn't stop this
long-awaited clash from being a
spectacle
from the moment a fully hollow-fined
ichigo unleashed his first attack
against the traitor captain
fans braced themselves for the ingenious
way the strawberry was going to dethrone
the night
unstoppable sociopath
the answer was the final get to katencho
and while it wasn't exactly what we had
been hoping for
the ass ball was almost with it to see
eisen and his mullet get sliced in half
number two goku vs gohan dragon ball
super they've trained in the hyperbolic
time chamber
they've had a few non-canon fights
across gt
but this was the one that finally gave
gohan a bit of his credit back
not since his battle against cell had we
seen him channel his inner saiyan
this ferociously and it's a practice
match against his papa of all things
[Music]
on the eve of the tournament of power
father and son clash without pulling any
punches
sure as soon as super saiyan blue was
triggered gohan got wasted
but at least he demonstrated he's not
become totally useless later in life
[Applause]
