00:00Riko is an underrated series, but it does require some patience. It has a heavy emphasis
00:22in teamwork and strategy, and if you are into that, then it's a must-wash. Minamiya is
00:26one of the elites when it comes to tactical prowess, turning the battlefield into a chessboard
00:32with every move calculated to perfection. The animation captures the tension of each decision
00:37with high precision. Gapimaru finally encounters a Tensen, only to realize he's fighting a
00:56gender-fluid plant. The best way to approach this was not to think about it, and that's exactly what
01:02Gapimaru does by unleashing a barrage of punches in an attempt to deflower both forms.
01:07Takt Destiny mixed classical music with high-octane visuals to deliver a performance worthy of a
01:24standing ovation. In this world, D2s hate music. They're basically noise-canceling bugs. Unfortunately
01:30for them, our main characters had the volume set to obliterate.
01:42This fight probably had the greatest shock factor, going from 0 to 100 real fast,
01:47and marking the beginning of Painsaw Man. Even when armed with extremely powerful techniques,
01:52the devils they faced were far beyond their comprehension, all captured beautifully by
01:57MAPPA's animators who were probably fighting their own Deadline Devil.
02:27This anime flew under the radar, but out of nowhere Inspector Gadget rolled in literally roller-skating
02:37through mud, before busting out the same boxing combo he taught Maharaga. It was a short fight,
02:42but the animation exploded with style. A perfect mix of chaos, ideology, and just enough nonsense to
02:48make you wonder how this isn't talked about more. This was Finesse versus Feral. Hoshina,
03:02armed with twin blades and anime protagonist swagger, takes on a talking kaiju with Jimbro energy. He's
03:08basically Jin's face slapped onto Levi's body and fights exactly like that. Kaiju number 10 just wanted
03:14a worthy opponent. He got diced like sashimi instead. Jinwu faces off against the Demon King in a fight
03:31that's as much about spectacle as it is about power levels. This time the enemy was strong enough to
03:36force Jinwu to pause his aura farming. The animation goes all out, though at times there's just a little
03:41bit too much motion blur. Redline is Madhouse's seven year long middle finger to CGI. Over 100,000
04:06hand-drawn frames of pure chaos wrapped in punk aesthetics and engine fumes. It's so wild they even have
04:13world-ending bioweapons called Funky Boy. The result is an insane ride that Fast and Furious still hasn't caught up to.
04:28The God of High School is about Korean characters, speaking Japanese, using Chinese powers, with
04:32global fighting styles. The Jin Mori vs Jagal fight is where they ascend to godhood and it's only season 1.
04:39Blending unearthly martial arts with supernatural flexing, it's divine chaos in motion.
04:53Naruto's Baryon mode is the ultimate power flex, a transformation that doesn't just burn chakra,
04:58it burns a part of you. A last resort exchange that cost both Naruto and the audience something
05:03irreplaceable. But it was a necessary sacrifice to take Ishiki to the village hidden in these hands.
05:20Looks like Yami's philosophy of surpass your limits made it to the real world, because the studio
05:25definitely pushed the animators past theirs for a filler episode. But hey, no complaints here,
05:30especially when the fight features some of the highest power levels in the entire series.
05:44Nobody expected ReZero to suddenly drop movie level animation, but Garfield finally got the respect
05:49he deserved. He showed he's the shounen protagonist of this show with his animalistic, instinct-driven
05:54fighting style. A brawl that was raw, brutal, and easily the cleanest the series has ever looked.
06:00This is what happens when you steal someone's girl. The original fight was great, but this movie version
06:17was even better showcasing the ruthless nature of this battle. For someone who hasn't watched Bleach,
06:22they wouldn't even be able to tell who the villain is. Apart from the questionable logic of stabbing
06:43the top of a hat, did they expect a really long head? Afro Samurai is an underrated gem with stunning
06:50animation. The monochrome style set against bright blue skies makes every frame pop. The choreography
06:55is fluid, stylish, and hits hard. Now all we need is berserk animated like this.
07:04I'm going to eat your soul. Shit it out and use it to smother your girlfriend to death.
07:10When an ancient force of nature mingles too long with society, you end up with a sassy villain,
07:16delivering some of the greatest lines to lighten up a death battle. Trevor, on the other hand,
07:20was a pure badass to take on death without an ounce of fear, despite his slim chances of victory. The
07:26overall battle was beautifully captured with fluid camera movement. Death may have lost to Trevor,
07:31but he definitely claimed a few animators on his way out.
07:48As expected from the Fate franchise, the animation was god tier. Gorgon was already terrifying just by
07:53being massive, but that speed made it far worse. Every clash was pure spectacle, and somehow,
07:58that sword held up. At this point, the real noble phantasm might just be weapon durability.
08:18This isn't even an action anime, and yet it puts most action anime to shame. Fern and Stark take the
08:23spotlight here with two completely contrasting styles. Fern fights with grace and cold precision,
08:29and the smooth animation transitions elevate every calculated move. Then there's Stark, bold,
08:35explosive, and all muscle, with the animation leaning into his raw power as he realizes he's just built
08:41different. It may seem like he had a tough fight, but even in his dreams, he turned an entire species
08:55from overpopulating to near extinction in a matter of minutes. It was satisfying to see him have a blast.
09:01Especially the heartbeat was a beautiful touch foreshadowing the satisfaction of Boros in the final
09:06fight of the season. This battle transformed into a cartoonish spectacle. Luffy the Liberator fully
09:26embraced freedom with an awakening that tossed shonen norms out the window. Kaigo, the strongest
09:31creature alive used to inspire fear. Now he inspires bounce sound effects. The King of Beasts was finally
09:36dethroned by the rubber messiah.
09:50Fog Hills has the least amount of episodes in this list for a non-movie series, and yet makes it to the
09:55top 10 every year it airs. It has its own unique art style, but it's not just the animation that makes
10:01it amazing, but the choreography that pushes it to higher levels, especially that hand-to-hand combat sequence.
10:19Jogo could body 99.9% of the verse, that's how much power he displayed in this battle. But he's a curse,
10:26cursed to only fight gods. If there's one thing Sukuna loves more than putting his hands in Yuji's pockets,
10:31it's mass destruction. And this fight delivered both.
10:42You can skip most of the Hashira training arc, just make sure you catch the final few minutes. Musen
10:56Jackson does the cleanest walk in anime history under the moon. In other words, he moonwalks.
11:01Then he gets hit with one of the most realistic explosions ever animated and strolls into a full
11:06Hashira lineup.
11:20With every new My Hero Academia movie, another hero joins the final boss fight. This time,
11:25it's Todoroki. What follows is an explosive spectacle with visuals strong enough to melt the screen.
11:31Deku takes Dark Might on a nationwide tour with all the classic smashes. Good thing he got KO'd before
11:36Deku pulled out the United States of Tariffs.
11:43Deku takes Dark Might on a nationwide tour with all the other characters.
11:55Did you hear that sound in the background? Yeah, that's the animators crying. The animation quality
12:00was so absurd, you could pause on any frame and still get a wallpaper. Ryder had been saving all
12:05her screen time for this one moment, and she made it count. A clash between the epitome of speed and
12:11overwhelming power.
