Best Moves in Anime
#13
Just to toss some more of my favorites on out there, 'cause they're good stuff:
-- One Piece: Aokiji's Ice Age. Specifically the first use of it, where he freezes an entire fucking miles long stretch of ocean connecting two islands. It's absurd and delightful.
-- One Piece: Whitebeard's Shima Yurashi. He used it to tilt an entire fucking island. Actually, hell, fuck it, anything Whitebeard does; a lot of his attacks and moves don't even have official names. Special credit goes to the 'combo' he unleashes in Whitebeard's Silent Rage. I get shivers every fucking time.
-- Hokuto no Ken: Kenshiro's Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken. It's nearly a meme at this point, but it's still a beautiful, beautiful thing.
-- Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Yoshikage Kira's Bites the Dust. Time loops, explosions, the villain almost actually winning? Yes, please, I want more.
-- One Punch Man: Saitama's Serious Series: Serious Strike. It's just a punch, but seeing such a laid-back dude actually get serious and the execution and spectacle of it is what gets me.
-- The Big O: The Big O's Chrome Buster and Sudden Impact. I couldn't decide between them. They're both fairly simple, but they both get the job done and are pretty slick.
-- Soul Eater: Lord Death's (serious) Shinigami Chop. The joke version of it is hilarious and pretty cool in its own right, but seeing what such an until then silly little gimmick can do when the big man gets serious is...frankly, kind of awe-inspiring.
-- G-Gundam: Domon Kasshu & Rain (via the Burning Gundam)'s Erupting Burning Finger: Sekiha Love Love Tenkyoken. They summon the fucking Burger King to lay down the fucksmack on some uppity giant zombie robot shithead via the power of interpretive dance and anime love-powers. (I know, I know, it's actually the King of Hearts, shaddup) What's not to like?
-- As has been mentioned a couple times, Vegeta's Final Flash. Cell and Gohan's Kamehameha struggle is pretty bitchin'. Every time Goku uses the Spirit Bomb, to varying degrees.
-- Tengen Toppa Gurre Lagann: Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann's Super Tengen Toppa Giga Drill Breaker. And, of course, the resulting use of the Anti-Spiral's Anti-Spiral Giga Drill Breaker. The Ham to Ham combat of that entire scene is beautiful, and probably what makes the moves so amazing. Special mention must be given to the first usage of the technique, though, and Kamina's version of the Giga Drill Breaker and Simon's subsequent first usage of it are equally beautiful. And emotional.
If you see me around and you got questions, just give a shout. I'm happy to assist.
