00:19relationship between Master and Pupil is a complex one but also a very meaningful one.
00:24It's rare to find a situation whereby the MC fights together with their Master.
00:29As the Master is usually far above the characters in most cases, or dead.
00:34However, seeing the student finally grow to become strong enough to support the Master in combat is always an epic moment.
00:52Ogres generally have a lifespan of around a hundred years.
00:55However, this fighting instructor has miraculously lived over 300 years.
01:00He has trained many famous individuals and is also the fighting instructor of the Chief in Command.
01:06When they first encountered the reincarnated slime, they had to combine forces to be able to even stand a chance.
01:13However, even that was nothing in comparison to the true might of Rimuru.
01:20What kind of aura?
01:23Eventually, they joined his army and the Elder Ogre ends up teaching swordmanship even to the mighty Rimuru himself.
01:36Set in a dystopian future, the story follows a group of highly skilled criminals that take on various jobs for large pay.
01:55And as a result, they are often pursued by the government's executioners.
02:01This Master-Student-Executioner duo are incredibly strong.
02:05And they were sufficient to take on this criminal gang.
02:08The Execution Division Master is the strongest martial artist in the series.
02:12His physical capabilities and reflexes are well beyond the average human.
02:17The pupil may still be in training, but is very strong herself.
02:22And together, they were easily strong enough to take on multiple skilled criminals simultaneously.
02:27The Chimera Ant arc is the best arc of the entire animated Hunter x Hunter series, for delivering numerous fabulous fights and an amazing character development, including the Ant King.
02:49Morel and Knuckle have the unfortunate task of dealing with one of the three royal guards of the Chimera Ant King.
02:56And teamwork was crucial to survive against a far superior being.
03:01Even in the midst of a life-threatening fight, this teacher looks out for his student.
03:06He created clones to generate enough time to bring back the angered Knuckle to sanity, and save him from getting himself killed.
03:13However, the most impressive character here is Yupi, for the amount of character development he underwent in just a few minutes.
03:28Especially the self-control of conquering his own emotions mid-battle.
03:32This master-pupil duo had a complex relationship, with the student almost worshipping the former commander of the stealth force,
03:59but at one point was furious towards her master for leaving Soul Society without any warnings.
04:09They reconciled towards the end of Soul Society arc, and now form one of the best tag teams in battle.
04:16Having a similar fighting style and technique is greatly advantageous, allowing them to fight in perfect synchrony, making them a powerful team against any foe.
04:26A champion!
04:34Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!
04:37Ahhhhhhhhhh!
04:41Hahhhhhhhhhh!
04:47Master-pupil relationships are fundamental in a martial arts-based anime like Dragon Balls.
04:52Each one of the characters have undergone long periods of training under various masters.
04:57Gohan and Piccolo are the strangest of them all, as Piccolo was the main villain in the original series,
05:03and now has ended up as a mentor and father figure to the son of his rival.
05:08This duo fought together numerous times, but the most memorable was their first fight together against Nappa.
05:15Gohan at the time was still developing his courage despite his extraordinary strength,
05:20and the consequence of that was his mentor's life.
05:23It was a short fight together, but that sacrifice caused many tears that day.
05:29Edward and Alphonse had a horrible accident of losing limbs and even an entire body in an alchemy experiment attempting to bring back their dead mother.
05:54Their master had gone through a similar alchemy accident, which makes it a lot easier for her to relate to their horrible experience.
06:01She is an extremely skilled alchemist and martial artist, who not only taught the brothers, but came to treat them as an extension of her own family.
06:09In the final battle against father, we see all the characters come together to fight against this mighty being.
06:16And it was especially great to see the Elric brothers and their master fight side by side.
06:23Yuji had several teachers in the short timeframe of the series already, but his biggest growth was thanks to Todo, who has a very similar fighting style to the protagonist.
06:49They may have only spent a few minutes together, but it allowed the protagonist to grow dramatically, and even acquire a technique to deal significant damage against a special grade curse.
07:04Their combination was so perfect, that they even clapped a special grade curse to its limits.
07:10The perfect synchrony between these brothers throughout the entire fight allowed the Boogie Woogie to be brought to its full potential.
07:17The protagonist of this anime has the strongest character in the show as his mentor, and that's because he is the successor of All Might's quirk.
07:43All Might has one of the strongest quirks in the series, which only gets stronger with every generation.
07:50To be able to handle such a powerful quirk, the new user must train a significant amount to be able to handle even 5% of the full power without harming oneself.
08:00However, thanks to the special gear the MC wears, he was able to maximize the output of his power, and support his mentor by fighting side by side against this powerful enemy.
08:12.
08:18.
08:22.
08:27Guy and Lee are at the peak of mentor-pupil synchrony, to the extent they even wear the
08:36same attire.
08:38Guy has passed on all his martial arts skills to Lee, making their fighting styles almost
08:42identical.
08:43But it's not just the martial arts that was passed down.
08:46The spirit of hard work and never giving up has also been inherited by Lee.
08:51This was one of the very rare fights where we see the duo team up against the Ninetales,
08:56and it was a delight to see two unlocked gates fight side by side.
09:05Their techniques, skills and attitude were a perfect match, and even a tailed beast had
09:12no chance against this perfect chemistry.
09:26They're constantly surpassing their limits to unlock new skills and abilities, often in
09:43the midst of a difficult battle.
09:45The captain of the Black Bulls is one of the strongest characters in the series, and to
09:50have him push to the limits is a difficult task.
09:53But that's exactly what we see here against the leader of the Dark Triad.
09:58This is the first time we see Aster fighting alongside the captain, but he had to borrow
10:03much more of his devil power to even keep up with the captain.
10:15Even the combined might of the duo was only enough to maintain a stalemate, until Yami passed
10:21his katana across, a symbolic moment of acknowledging and entrusting Aster with the finishing move.
