Holmes Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 OK. I need some help. I'm doing a uni media project and I'm looking for the ultimate anime robot fight scene! I'd love to hear peoples' opinions. I'm talking the longest, MOST epic one-on-one, buildings destroyed, weapons+hand-to-hand, earth shudderingly awesome scenes!!! You know what i mean... I'm sure everyone's got their favorite. And not just flash new animation styles, I'd like to hear about the classics as well. I've seen a fair bit of anime, but clearly nowhere near as much as everybody else here... Please help me - deadline is looming!!!! Quote
HWR MKII Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 The first one in mind is the Megatron VS Optimus Prime fight from TFTM. The Shinden armor fight from gasaraki had its moments too. Quote
Gaijin Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 (edited) Gunbuster : Kazumi And Noriko's fight getting the Exelion to make a black hole. OR End of Evangelion: Asuka's Unit 02's fight against the mass production Evas. Edited July 21, 2005 by Gaijin Quote
CoryHolmes Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 The end fight of Guyver: Dark Hero, between the Guyver and the Guyver Zoanoid. Very cool. Quote
the white drew carey Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 Not the longest nor the most epic, I'd still pick Max vs Millia in DYRL for it's sheer speed and coolness. Quote
Twoducks Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 End of Evangelion: Asuka's Unit 02's fight against the mass production Evas. 312866[/snapback] I also consider this one of the best fights ever. It had the added tension of the battery count down versus all the oponents. Very kinetic and viscelal (with all that blood and gore it looks more like a battle between giant beings instead of mechs... are Evas considered mechs or bio-mechs?) There´s also one at the back of my head but I can´t remember it now Quote
Roy's Blues Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 Not the longest nor the most epic, I'd still pick Max vs Millia in DYRL for it's sheer speed and coolness. 312873[/snapback] Seconded. Quote
Father Jack Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 (edited) The running duel in the barrel of the colony gun between Char, Hamman, Scirocco, and Camille near the end of Zeta Gundam. I also second the fight from the fifth episode of gunbuster. Edited July 21, 2005 by Father Jack Quote
JKeats Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 I'll second the Macross Plus Isamu VS. Guld duel and the Asuka VS. Mass Production Eva's duel. Quote
Pat Payne Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 A couple I've always liked -- the final battle between Char Aznable and Amuro Ray in the Mobile Suit Gundam TV series / compilation movies. Also, the A-Ko vs. B-Ko's mecha goon squad battle from Project A-Ko. And I'd be a traitor to MW if I didn't also say the Max-Millia duel from DYRL. Although it's in a book, the duel between Ardan Sortek and an unnamed Awesome pilot in Michael Stackpole's "Battletech--Warrior: En Guarde" is also very cool. Quote
Lynx7725 Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 Hmm, a few comes to mind. Max vs. Millia in DYRL Isamu vs. Guld in the training grounds, or their dogfight on Earth The Cyclops Kampfer attack on the Colony, ending with Alex's defeat of the Kampfer in Gundam 0080. Not quite one-on-one, but the Kampfer rules. Barney's Zaku II FZ attack on Alex at the end of Gundam 0080. Classic Phyrric one-on-one fight. GP01 vs. GP02 in Gundam 0083, various fights. The Gouf Custom vs. EZ-8 in Gundam 08MST, great one-on-one action. Take your pick. Quote
Roy Focker Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 I'd go with Roy er...me , Hikaru and Misa's escape attempt in DYRL? You have Milia wasting Zentrans in a bloody mess. Kamjin then kicking the crap out of me before I kill him and than fake my own heroic death in the fake explosion. Quote
hevangel2 Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 Patlabor, Ingram vs Griffon, probably the most realistic mech fight Gundam Evolve 5: GP03D vs a team of Zion MSs, full CG Escaflonwe: The final fight between Pan and Allan, watch the sword motion. 0080: NT-1 vs Zaku Quote
Dangard Ace Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 We doing super robots? Then it's Shin Getter Robo. Hordes of monsters, monster robots, planetary body destruction, star destruction.... Quote
Solscud007 Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 08TH MS the EZ8 vs Gouf Custom was a badassed fight scene Quote
shiyao Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 (edited) just wait a bit, and you'll have Destiny vs Strike Freedom pretty soon EDIT: ok that was unproductive. here goes. isamu vs guld, after their re-entry from space. deunan knute in appleseed the movie. opening sequence. you know what i'm talking about. those *were* mechs? and briareos against the three cyborgs. the earlier episodes of gundam seed destiny had some very well animated battles. then it fizzled out .. and is still fizzling, i reckon. Edited July 21, 2005 by shiyao Quote
baronv Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 Max & Mireya in the SDF Macross t.v. series at the arcade. Quote
Agent ONE Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 Not the longest nor the most epic, I'd still pick Max vs Millia in DYRL for it's sheer speed and coolness. 312873[/snapback] Hells yeah. Quote
Godzilla Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 (edited) Not the longest nor the most epic, I'd still pick Max vs Millia in DYRL for it's sheer speed and coolness. 312873[/snapback] I have to agree with that. A few others come to mind: -Patlabor- Ingram vs Griffon and Ingram vs other labors. -Macross TV- Max vs Millia in any mech fight. -Mospeada- Stig vs the the Inbid prince EDIT: clean up grammar Edited July 21, 2005 by Godzilla Quote
Skippy438 Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 A couple I've always liked -- the final battle between Char Aznable and Amuro Ray in the Mobile Suit Gundam TV series / compilation movies. 312910[/snapback] I'll second that and add in any of their fights in CCA Quote
GobotFool Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 I'm rather partial to some of the fights in Gundam Wing Endless Waltz. Quote
mikeszekely Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 Thirded. The confrontation between the Gundam and the Zeong is just classic. Then again, so Amuro/Char/Lalah/Sayla battle. The way Char just barely avoids killing Sayla, only to lose his arm for it. And then the way Amuro impulsively tries to deal Char the killing blow, only to accidently kill Lalah instead. As I was explaining to my wife, who'd never seen any UC Gundam until recently when I showed her the trilogy, that was one of the defining moments between Amuro and Char, and would still be an issue between them 14 years later in Char's Counterattack. Quote
Skull Leader Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 1) Max vs. Milia in DYRL... simply the greatest (and way too short) 2) Norris Packard in the Gouf Custom vs. the entire 08th MS team (complete pwnage) Best two I can think of. Quote
VF-18S Hornet Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 I have to go with Max and Millia's Dogfight in both the series and movie and Isamu's and Guld's dogfight in Macross Plus and the Kira in the Freedom Gundam Versus Rau Le Crusset in the Provedence Gundam in ep.50 in Gundam Seed. Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 I share with all you guys what you said but there`s another famous Macross Mecha fight : Hikaru, Max and Kakizaki vs Bretai and his soldiers Quote
Ed.Coli Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 2) Norris Packard in the Gouf Custom vs. the entire 08th MS team (complete pwnage) Definetely seconded. The 08MS vs Apsalus II was pretty killer too. Quote
Kin Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 (edited) undoubtfully many scenes in DYRL... some of the classic Machine Robo... and as a Mospeada fan... the Tlead(piloted by Ray) vs Corg(humanlike Inbit command unit). Edited July 21, 2005 by Kin Quote
Kin Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 (edited) sorry accidentally quoted myself Edited July 21, 2005 by Kin Quote
armentage Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 I'm going with episode 5 of Macross-Zero, Hero-boy vs Nora and Roy vs Ivanov. Though, you might say half of that was aerial combat rather than mecha... Mac+ Isamu vs Guld fight at the end of Episode 2(3?) was pretty awesome too. The one where the gun-pod accidentally goes off. Quote
JELEINEN Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 I'll second the Allen vs. Van fight towards the end of Esca. Quote
armentage Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 Let me add Gundam EVOLVE #4... Computer rendered Gundam flying around with the giant booster/gun-pod assault craft, absolutely destroying the opposition. I haven't seen the original, but my god did the rendered version look gorgeous. Quote
Druna Skass Posted July 22, 2005 Posted July 22, 2005 Quite a bit to pick from... Idolo taking on all the UNSF and BAHRAM Phantomas at the end of the ZOE Idolo OAV. Gundam XX against Ashtaron, and Virsago. Neo in the Exass taking on both Shinn and Rey. Quote
Panon Posted July 22, 2005 Posted July 22, 2005 GaoGaiGar - either the entire hero team versus EI-01 in episode 30, or Gaogaigar versus the Zonuda in episode 49. Quote
