This is how I imagined my action figures fought tbh

If you’re holding a gun, wearing an assault gear, or look like the other ten mfs around you, ur getting clapped

Everyone's talking about animation, but dayyyyyyymn that music slaps

Imagine if fights at school looked like this. If they did I’m pretty sure even the teachers would stand to watch it for a few minutes

Damn, all these years and cowboy bebop still looks amazing.

if you blink once you miss a week's worth of work Edit: I stg everyone in the replies has chronic brain rot yall really make me wanna kms Edit 2: it's been 2 years and I still get notifications from this comment. Never change youtube

Cowboy Bebop is just such a great anime. I don't know why, but everytime I see it I feel so nostalgic, happy and sad at the same time. Damn this was one good anime. I guess I really am carrying that weight.

The most impressive I find about all of these is that you can really see and feel the "flow" the characters are in while fighting.

>Full credits with animators, shows and timestamps You the real MVP Hobbes

Inspiration

5:07 gets so much respect cause he had so many opportunities to punch his opponent dead in the nuts but he just....didn’t 😭😭

Naruto's fights were legitimately at their best when the main thing was hand to hand instead of fucking energy monsters

So much of Spike kicking ass but then Ed's dad is just like nope...

Love how certain animators have different methods of animating something as simple as a punch.

7:28 "team rocket ain't blasting off today"

And here i cant understands how voice actors have higher pay than animators

Kakashi vs Obito is probably my favorite hand to hand combat scene but I love this video

I dont care if avatar or legend of korra is not an anime, it still has some badass fights Edit: their are like 4 different arguments going on at the same time. Let me make it clear. Ik LoK and AtLA is not a anime. Im just saying that it got clean animarion that put on the level of anime shows

Tip to surviving a Shonen: *don’t be dressed like everyone else*

No one : My fingers when i'm bored :

Naruto hand to hand fights are almost always hype

This is a masterpiece with criminally smooth transitions

Nobody: What you thought you were doing as a kid:

we can agree that korra didn't live up to our expectations of a sequel to atla, but we can also at least agree that the fight scenes are really well animated

I usually like a lot your music selections but uhmm this time.... *this time I love it*

I would love to see the animators of Naruto animate an entire fight between 2 DBZ characters. Just imagine a no holding back fight between goku and vageta but in the style of Naruto.

young animators across the globe appreciate this video

I don't get people who say "anime fights without context are so boring." They're amazing to watch!

this 10 minutes probably cost more than i'll ever earn in a lifetime....

I think Spike vs Vincent is still one of the most brilliant fights in all of anime.

Dude this channels legendary. I've watched this video 30 times over the years and I just keep coming back because of how high quality. The way you match hits in certain clips with the beat of the song is incredibly. You also have incredibly song choices.

0:41 I always wanted this to be an actual scene, but its just part of the opening smh

1:11 hot damn that looked good

That transition between Towa no Quon and OPM at 1:27 was EXPERT

1:00 fluidly dodging a headshot makes her so terrifying

この変に気取った特殊能力じゃない人間の身体能力を底上げしたような動きと戦い方がもう最高

It's always refreshing to see people not forget hajime no ippo

The most Impressive part of Spikes fight was that the guy he was fighting was high on red eye and it made his reflexes so fast that a bullet was less than 6 inches from his face and he was still able to dodge it. Yet Spike could Punch him in the face 10 out of 10 times still. Just shows how Superhuman Spike really is. Most Anime protagonists are insane though and make that look silly. Bebop will always be one of my favorites though.

I like how the compilation shows enough of the sequence without spoiling the outcome of the fights.

1:11 that kick was synced with the music, satisfying

5:26 ok that was perfect

3:54 - homie used the knee dislocation shin breaking technique. Very effective. I speak from experience 🧐

This was just... An astounding compilation of such vibrant animation. Mad respect to all those who worked on each and every frame. And thank you for posting this compilation.

i love that spike is the king of this video, well deserved spotlight obviously!

Hand to hand combat is the most satisfying combat to exist.

女の子が戦うシーンも好きだけど、やっぱおっさん同士の渋い戦いの方が好きだな

This type of fights give me some kind of satisfaction

3:38 is so satisfying

スパイク、やっぱりすごいかっけえ...

exactly what I need right now. Love you hobbes, another great upload.

this is what i love about anime so much, you cannot replicate that fast paced combat and those moves in real life (or filmed movies to be exact) and cartoons either don't focus on fighting as much as the story or they are trying to appeal to a younger audience. the closest thing to anime i've seen in regular cartoons is ATLA which is an amazing cartoon btw. anime is that middle ground between cartoon and action movies (as well as mature content *ahem*) that merges that smooth movement of animation and the fast paced action scenes in filmed movies and amplifying it using the power of animation

動きや構図の一つ一つが練られていてメリハリがあるから、作画自体が多少雑でも見ていて気持ち良い 今のアニメが失いつつある技術だ

A round of applause for all the hardworking animators out there

I love how in many of these they take natural movements, instead of doing things perfectly like robots they have a bounce and rhythm to them, taking unnecessary movements like waving their hands around. It makes the scenes feel so much more real and it shows off the quality of the animation.

"Step up and GET SOME!" Love watching a good scrap. Anyone can pull a trigger, but a badass knows how to knuckle.

no bright, flashy contrasting effects against dimmed colors, no magical energy blasts. Just the beauty of two or more beautifully choreographed people beating the crap out of each other with their own tools, as it should be.

カウビバとBGMの完璧な合い方

Combat + Jazz = 😋

Are none of us are gonna talk abour how good the 2003 Fma fights look

ワンパンマンは他のと比べてもカメラワークだったり演出が異次元だな

While I'll be the first to say I love most of the recent cuts Nakamura has done lately. I do miss the old highly choreographed cuts he used to do with Cowboy bebop and the original adaptation of Full metal. I haven't seen many animators recently that like to have large amounts of choreography In their fight scenes. Anybody have any reccomendations?

Only part of anime I don't like is how getting to these cool parts sometimes takes 5 episodes of just still frames

Wow its like STUPIDLY entertaining to watch people fight hand to hand combat with various kinds of jazz playing

man oh man, i never get tired of cowboy bebop's fight scenes

If I could like this video 1000 times it wouldn't be enough. Your videos were the first to make me really appreciate the animation process, absolutely beautiful editing and clip selection. Thank you for uploading this.

I just love smooth and great animations like these, Mad respects to the animation team that spent all their time just to create such amazing scenes. Especially everyone from Ufotable and kyo animations, Hopefully most of the viewers would soon, or maybe one day, appreciate such godly works.

I love this video. It’s one of the reasons why I love anime so much. All these fights were beautiful. Long live anime🤟🏿🤟🏿

旧のハガレンすこ

Another splendid compilation, always perfect all the way

comparing with animations from Twitter is unfair. It's Because Twitter animaters have much more time than real working animaters. Sakuga by working animater is actually done in limited schedule and that's really important.

Nothing but hands being throooown with some dope jazz music to back it up - you love to see it

I NEEDED THIS im doing animations and i needed more hand to hand combat moves and techniques i learned alot from these

It's hilarious how well cowboy bebop jazz works with Naruto and Full metal Alchemist 😂👌. Spot on vid by the way ❤

This is my favorite youtube video of all time

One of the best videos I have ever watched

Some pretty high quality stick fights right there.

Wah I like hand to hand combat more than just a nuke magic fight 😍

Ah yes the intense jazz music, the transitions and people beating the shit out of each, this is exactly what I like with my coffee.

This is an elegantly made video. Great music choices. The songs gave a different feel and made following the fights easier for some reason

1:01 was sweet as hell it went so well with the music at that part

I heavily respect the time an effort it took to makes this

The music, the animation, the choreography, the perspectives, the martial arts. It’s all so *tasteful*

i love how if u turn on captions you can see the anime and episode

idk what I should thank you more for, this kick ass compilation video or the list of great anime I'll watch after midterms are over :D

Wow you went through a LOT of anime and definitely pick out some great ones!! KUDOS

カウボーイビバップめっちゃ好き

5:55 This girl is a little badass

Very good!!! Cool!!! Amazing EDITING copilation!!!

As much as I bloody love this compilation, it really drives the feeling that there's two types of fight animation. There's the stuff that is driven by the characters, where their styles are put front and center and the action is built on very specific choreography, and then the sakuga stuff that's driven by the action itself and uses a weirdly similar set of attacks and action beats. Feels like shows like Naruto, FMA and a few of the ones I'm not familiar with all bleed together and doesn't really tell me anything about how the characters fight, whereas stuff like Bebop, Blade Runner and Boy and the Beast tells you exactly who these people are by their choreography.

This reminded me Sakura’s weakest point was hand to hand combat, now if you try to throw hands with her you die.

最近のアニメだとど近距離で何が起こってるのか分かりにくいのばっかだから、こういう少ない画角からヌルヌル動いてるアニメももっと見たい。

We have the anime that have the fighters use their brain in battle, like HxH and JJBA. Those are without a doubt great anime, and their action always manages to surprise me. We also have the crazy nuclear galactic level surreal anime, like DBZ and One Punch Man. But then we have the anime that just has action, nothing less and nothing more. Just pure, simple fighting with nothing extra in it.

Title: Hand to hand Saitama: Hand

That’s probably one of the most detailed descriptions for a KZfaq video that I’ve seen in awhile. Thank you.

Hey Hobbes? Thanks for this vid, seriously. I didn't know that there were still tons of people who appreciates these kinds of h2h combat scenes I'm real grateful that these weren't just those over the top, flashy blur that a lot of anime have today. So, so thanks a lot Also all these mature discussions on animators and their great works, that's a huge plus😌

いつも最高な動画をありがとうございます☺️

Dang that transition between Bahi and Xeno at 7:40 that's super nice. you can clearly see that there is some similarity in their styles now.

I am watching it 50th time, it's just so entertaining

Thank you for the music and fight sources, you're a hero!!
