  • what about samurai shamploo?

  • what is the intro music 

  • sword of the strangers last fight was amazing.....it didnt even make the list.....

  • 3:12 Tailow sighting

  • ****ichigo vs Buyakuya, the last hit, would have made a very decent standoff

  • for some reason i thought it said kenshiro on the number 1

  • How has there NOT been a decent crossover fighting game with Anime characters from all over, like those seen here, yet? Get on it Japan! (...and don't you dare say Shonen Jump Ultimate Stars!)

  • Comment removed

  • @SoshiUso Yeah, I kinda forgot about MUGEN, although a more official game would be nice. Maybe a sequel to BattleStadium DON?

  • what about Kenpachi vs. Nnoitra

  • kenpachi and ichigo

  • What is the intro song?

  • what about zaraki vs ichigo or ichigo vs byakuya?

  • @mefist13 what about Zaraki vs Byakuya

  • hey what was the intro song

  • if you are going to put a samuray x/s figth as the number one that would be himura vs saito...and where the hell is bleach in here??

  • @Demondzeta 0:28 this is his opinions, not yours

  • Zoro vs Ryuuma was that interesting because Zoro only had 2 swords to use.

    If you ignore that fact, there are two of his fights I personally consider better: Kaku and Mr. 1. Especially Mr. 1, if you consider him a swordsman (Literally swords-man). Shishi Sonson > All. :D

    But everyone has his own opinions and I respect yours - You get a like from me :)

  • what anime was no.3 ?

  • @Lucuis2010

    fate stay night

  • @Lucuis2010 OnePiece 

  • @Sylo321 OnePiece was #4 .....

  • @Lucuis2010 fate/stay night

  • I agree with Afro being so high up on the list, that battle was awesome. But about number 1, though I agree the number one being kenshin, I thought that wasn't the best stand off. I would have also put the scene from Berserk where Guts fights Griffith in the snow, and they end the battle with one strike. But I respect your choices they were good ones.

  • where is bleach ichigos had better sword fights :(

  • how come bleach isn't in here?

  • Ending song please? And the reason I think you favourized these, over others, isn't because of the 'epic' parts of the battles themselves, but rather, the story behind them. I mean, most of these scenes didn't seem all that interesting to me, aside from two, whom I both knew the story behind. For that reason alone, I liked them a lot. But yeah, if I had known the stories behind them all, I'm sure I'd agree with you on these being among the top 5, if not, at least top 10

  • #1 was probably the greatest scene in anime history

  • ONE PIECE!!! I love it.

  • LOL @ #1's nose

  • these might be great duels, but not stand offs o 0

    allthough the first part of the zorro one was infact a stand off

  • wheres is the fight between Ichigo and Grimmjow...Thats a real stand-off

  • which anime is the number 5??

  • @122power

    Code Geass, i recommend watching it!

  • Ichigo vs Byakuya??????? Ichigo vs Zaraki??????? Ichigo vs Kageroza??????

  • 1st Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki, that's all, excelent top

  • goku vs vegeta !

  • whats the intro song.?

  • Intro song??????????

  • The final battle of S-cry-ed would have definitely been 1# if it really was duels, and not just swordfights. In terms of swordfights, where was Samurai Champloo?

  • inuasha shud been in hear theresome epic sword fights and standoffs in it

  • I guess this was limited to sword fighters. Oh well. If it wasn't just swords, any of Kenshiro's fights would have made it.

  • Ichigo vs Byakuya was way better than any of these.

  • seems to me theres a bit of a flamewar here bout the mainstream crap, [/arrogantmode ON] it seems it is time to teach the uneducated masses[/arrogantmode OFF]

    there is a few reasons i tend to hate most mainstream stuff, but lets stick with the main few:

    Characters: in the generic shonen (namely Naruto/Bleach/One Peice/Fairy Tail) any character that isnt part of the "main group" will always end up glorifying the main characters for (usually) some pointless reason, especially the 200+ ep ones.

  • @therealrakuster (cont. my rantish thingy)

    Plot: again, the main offenders are the "big 3" the plot is generally dragged out for no real reason, with a lot of wangsting and "dark and edgy" crap thats really bland and in all honesty driven more by characters being emotionally weak for no real reason than anything else. Fillers are just fillers, even fans (and translators XD) hate them, so we'll just leave that as is.

  • @therealrakuster (cont more)

    Powers/Action: easily the part that annoys me most about the "big 3". considering theyre "action anime" the animation is usually pretty low quality during most fights, and the characters spend considerably more time explaining their attacks then wondering how the attacks get evaded/blocked than actually fighting.

    then on to powers...

    The main annoying thing about powers in generic shonen is that the main characters will get some random new powerup or ability(cont.)

  • @therealrakuster (cont from that sentence) out of nowhere for no reason other than something lame like "friendship" or "courage".

    quite possibly the reason i liked To Aru Majutsu no Index so much(main characters ability never changes or gets stronger)...it annoys me to no end when a character gets out of a situation via last-second powerup. even in shows i like, something like this will make a scene pretty pathetic 95% of the time.

    so ends todays rant, sry bout the spam xenniex.fanboys flame on!

  • @therealrakuster one piece doesnt do any of the things u mentioned. get ur facts straight dude

  • luffy vs lucci !!!! WHERE THE FUCK IS IT !!! D:

  • geil

    

  • For your number 1 I would have picked Kenshin vs Saito. Much more intense.

  • @ButtonzThePony There's alot of fights in Rurouni Kenshin that I would have placed over this but this is still an epic stand off! Some of those fights include the saito fight, shishio, 2nd aoshi encounter, and Soujirou duels......basically all of the shishio arc! The fights all tended to be more epic in general than other portions of Rurouni Kenshin

  • I call for a part 2 to your "Top 5 Anime Standoffs" Shura No Toki episode 24

  • I think the chess game between Zero and Schneizel in Code Geass is a great stand off.

  • Afro Samurai MUST be made into a trilogy. Where's my part 3 xD

  • one piece ftw :)

  • what is the music that starts at 0:01

  • My favorite is Trunks vs Freezer.

  • Hell yea kenshin

  • Love 4 roroni kenshin

  • the name is navras - juno reactor to the 0:01 starts:)

  • what is the music that starts at 0:01?

  • maybe highlander one was pretty cool too

  • Anyone else found the lack of Samurai Champloo disturbing :'3 ?

  • I totally agree with pick 1 and 2 ... good one 

  • I belive it is Neodammerung, the final fight song during The Matrix 3.

  • what is the song?

  • does anyone know the name of the song in the top 10 transformations trailer by xenniexTOP10 , it would be appreciated for the help lol :P

  • Before the top 1, a song is played as "epic introduction", can anyone tell me the name of that song?

  • can u please write the intruduction music ?

  • Two swordsman run past eachother. Slash sound effect or graphic fills the screen. Both swordsmen freeze in their stance, facing away from eachother.. Silence.. Close ups of both swordsman's faces, audience wonders who got slashed. Then one of them either A - falls down, B- blood gushes, or C- Groans "Na.. Ni.. ?" or all of the above, in that delayed reaction,suspense death that we know so well

    Another words, the most overused cliché in Anime/Japanese cinema. I GROAAAN every time i see it now...

  • Jinno: i have power, speed and grace far superior to yours.

    strikes Afro numerous times and Afro doesn`t die. Afro strikes him one time and he`s down. I think he should rephrase that

  • Code Gease!!!!!!!!

  • ok best hand to hand

    Naruto vs. 6 Peins - Naruto

    Best Mecha

    Diablo vs. Dann - GunnXSword

    Best Superpowered

    Gogeta vs. Broly

    Best Demon/Angel or Ghost

    Ichigo vs. Ulquiorra

  • @HaZeIVIaN8o4 The Best Hand To Hand it's Luffy vs Lucci, Naruto uses jutsus and kunais... Luffy uses his bare hands

  • @TrafalgarLaw00 ok true but i hate One piece sorry :(

  • What is the song at the beginning?

  • What anime was number 3 from? It looks like the one I wanna watch / read (it it's a manga) next!

  • whats the name of the song at the beginning???if anyone knows please tell!!

  • i'm a little disapointed that the fight between Ichigo and Byakuya from Bleach isn't in this. I think that it is one of the best duel standoffs.

  • @KoahnDrerendi Yeah totally. That was just an awesome fight and a great duel standoff.

  • Was that a skeleton with a fucking afro???

  • Fate Stay Night is just awesome. Every fight including the one shown here are all epic stand off's with great atttacks.

  • wow so none of these fights r very creative. they r all the same thing. look at the other guy. a little talk, flash of them charging. then its them standing in opposite directions and the veiwer wondering which one got sliced

  • @MLP270SS I never said these are the best or most creative fights. The whole point of the list was to rank 5 awesome stand offs in anime, not to make a list of the most creative fights.

    - xenniex

  • @xenniexTOP10 By the way could you do one of those

  • @xenniexTOP10 besides, isn't it great to see the results of a stand-off. alot of movies, shows and anime do this, so it never gets old.

  • @xenniexTOP10 owned

  • These aren't what I would call standoffs these are more like just standard fights... a standoff is a stalemate or deadlock between equally matched opponents... It’s more than just the usual pre-fight chatter… it's played off as a long tense moment where each is waiting for an opportune moment to attack! Like the fight between the 3 Sannin in Naruto when they all summoned their animals. That’s an awesome 3-way standoff!

  • @xNecroKey If you watch the original scenes used in this video, than you'll see that they are exactly what you describe a stand off should be. It's just that due to time restrictions and in order to keep things moving in the video, I have to cut the original footage from the usual 5 to 10 minutes into about 60 second long clips. In this case the feeling of it being a stand-off is kind of lost, but it would be ridiculous to post entire scenes here :) Take care!

    - xenniex

  • @xenniexTOP10 But you left out all the bleach sword fights and Claymore.

  • @xNecroKey Lol thats true, for number one i thought those two guys were gonna peck each other to death with their awfully long noses

  • Personally, I think Naruto is a first-rate anime. The show may have a lot of fillers episodes but still the show is really good. Most shows doesn't even compare to Naruto. I still think though that DBZ and One Piece or better though.

  • When I saw number 1, I was just thinking about Kenshin's pointy nose.

  • one piece is a fucking good anime , damn i can believe someone dont like this , number 4 is one piece !!! zoro the boss .

  • great last choice i watched this anime countless time i Sean all of your picks except 3 ..

  • and please put the anime with japeneese sound because english sounds sucks

  • @ilov3hotsaucexxx

    You're the troll. You don't know anything about Naruto. It's pathetic how fans of mediocre anime whine about how bad the most famous anime is. What right do you have to be jelous exactly? If Naruto "sucks" then why does it have 445+ episodes, tons of special episodes, several movies and 551 chapters? I've even made my own Naruto dojinshi and my own games of Naruto which i've spent years perfecting. Watch atleast 50 episodes of Naruto or shut up.

  • @nejihyuga901 hmm, so you still think you're right even though everyone has thumbed your comments down so many times and flagged them as spam that they won't even show up anymore. lol. Just face it... you're wrong.

  • @ilov3hotsaucexxx

    What are you talking about, my comment hasn't been flagged as spam or thumbed down and this is the first time we talked?

  • @nejihyuga901 lol yes at least one of your comments was thumbed down so many times it was removed. Look again.

  • @ilov3hotsaucexxx

    I don't particularly care, people shouldn't disrespect Masashi Kishimoto's work just because it's very popular.

  • @nejihyuga901 Which anime are bad, is mainly subjective, but the fact that something is popular doesn't mean it's good. If you market something well enough than you can create huge fanbases, even off of bad products. Many horrible movies and series make tons of money because they market it right, especially when the target audience are teens. Anyone in marketing knows that a movie, book or anime doesn't have to be good in order to be popular. Of course, it does help a lot if it's actually good.

  • @xenniexTOP10  Pokemon is a good exemple hahaha

  • @xenniexTOP10 Intro song? You don't have a full list this time :(

  • @nejihyuga901 i like naruto but i hate when people say its the best anime ever you have to expand your horizen not just watch the big 3 (4 if you count dbz which just had a special manga) there are some good anime that just came out at the wrong time and didnt get as popular

  • @nejihyuga901 i love naruto but it is FAR from the most famous anime around.

    Pokemon is a name which as long as you are ALIVE, you've heard it.

    and DBZ is still unbelievably popular a decade after it finished....

  • So many Naruto haters.... Sad.... Cause people are being too overated with comparisons that they dont see the story behind Naruto.... That pretty much means u guys just watch anime for action not the cool stories behind it...

  • @jasonsn11 Lol..the fact that many people dislike naruto is because the argument line has so many mistakes that sometimes makes people think if kishimoto has some solid argument written or he just have 2/3 cool ideas and then he fill up the holes with trash.

  • @gevurahs True but atleast he adds emotion to it.... Unlike some manga/anime I know, the characters disappears after the fight....

  • i need alittle help it seems i havent had the pleasure of watching the anime that got number 1 in this video and im not sure the name plz help

  • @yugiohluva227 It's called 'Rurouni Kenshin' it's a fantastic sword action anime.

  • @xenniexTOP10 hmm sword action anime that sounds good thx for the fast reply ill be sure to watch it

  • should have been kenshin vs Satio

  • Hey everyone, i've obviously told off and put this troll Phr33Pur3 in his place but i just want to let the general public know that all is not lost. It has in fact been proven that Ninjas PWN Pirates, anyday of the week, 24/7. Your Welcome ;))

  • yea one piece is awesome :D but we all got our favorites no use trying to convince others

  • @gonzasxxxz Preach!

  • hey xenniex .....

    what about zoro vs kaku

    ?? 

  • Comment removed

  • CAPTAIN FALCON!?

  • really good, but kenshin vs saito is the number 5!!

  • awwww, what about L and Light Yagami from Death Note?

  • Anyone notice the jumping/dashing sound effects in one piece are almost exactly like those in DBZ? :p

  • 5.often sees the bad guy explode.4.bad guy look like Ed from Ironmaiden.3.he just vanished lame.2.broke up like my old computer when I threw it on the wall.1.He god a scratch, and died really bad guy week

  • YEAH!!!! SUZAKU!!!!!

  • can someone give me the titles of ALL of these animes, i'm just beginning to watch anime, and i enjoy all kinds of them

  • @WhItMaNs123 Code Geass, One Piece, Fate Stay Night, Afro Samurai and Ruruoni kenshin

  • @WhItMaNs123 If u want to know other good anime to watch just comment.

  • umm Saber vs Gilgamesh or Shirou vs Gilgamesh in UWB is a lot better then the Saber vs Assassin one imo. Also some of the Bleach stand offs deserved a spot here like Ichigo vs Kempachi

  • Zorro for 1#

  • @LuubVilla Its Zoro

  • what is the name of these animes

  • I still think Alucard vs Anderson deserves a spot in the top 5... specifically this standoff... /watch?v=_nz_QRkwyQ0&feature=r­elated

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • yessss kenshin is freakin awesome

  • Dude Watch Sword Of a Stranger...it tops all these..x3

  • I liked the One Piece stand off most!

  • whaow alot immature haters here.... why cant everyone just respect one another's opinions??? i for one find that One piece isthe best anime evre, and i think naruto is really goood aswell, but i think bleach is shit... someone else thinks that bleach is awesome, but that doesnt give him the right to hate someone who doesnt feel that way... if he still does, then he's a sad fuck and should be ignored

  • you know, the only one of these that is an ACCUAL stand off is number 4, and not even all of number 4 just the first part. A stand off is is a battle inwitch niether side gaines an advantage.

  • Rourni kenshin for the win, emotionally this stand off was great, music great, plus come on its master vs student why wouldnt it be the best it isnt your good guy vs bad guy stand off.

  • No samarai champloo? thats kinda suprising

  • HOLY CRAP he killed him with the blunt edge of the blade!!!

    That's gotta hurt... =P

  • @Brunetta6 no..he did not killed him..

  • Another #1 ruined by English dubs.

  • hey xenniex where is ichigo vs zaraki?

  • samurai x ok,but still fail no dbz.lol dbz opitamized the stand off,most of the fights were stand offs

  • Interesting picks...but damn, some people are so stupid. This video is a "STANDOFF" video, not a fight video. On my top five, I have Krillin and Roshi from the old dragonball where they did a little standoff (mostly because it was hilarious). Zoro and Mr. 1, Afro and Jinnosuke, Jin and Kariya . And finally, like you I have Kenshin and Seijuro.

    I mean c'mon people, the guy had to go life or death against his beloved master. It was awesome.

  • OK definitly my top 5

    5. Goku vs. Mangin Buu

    4. Kakuzu vs. Kakashi

    3. Ikkaku vs. Edorad

    2. Ichigo vs Aizen

    1.!!! Naruto vs. Pein, ya i kno i picked alot of naruto and bleach but still great rivalries and blood. You cant doubt my list!

  • @HaZeIVIaN8o4 Seriously? Ichigo vs Aizen was shitty... Aizen didn't even release his "Bankai" and there was no actual "fight". Ichigo demolished him in seconds. I was expecting a long drawn out battle, and for sticking with the show that long, its what we deserved. Instead they give us tons of good fights leading up to it and then A crappy disappointing pile of poorly animated mess.

  • @abeness ok fine instead ill put Ichigo vs. Ulquiorra

  • @abeness or possibly Ray vs Van of the Dawn!

  • hey xenniex, whats the name of that song at the end of this video???? pls help

  • @tiger751 If you are talking about the song I used in the outro, it's "X-Ray Dog - Return of the King". Take care!

    - xenniex

  • @tiger751 The song played during the end credits is called 'Avenger' by 'Immediate music'

  • dude it should have final fantasy 7 cloud vs sephiroth

  • im suprised that bleach isint in here

  • Nice finish there, totally deserved. But I'm not gon lie, I thought Zoro's "Lion Song" against Mr. 1 should gave been number four instead of his fight with Ryuuma. But then again, there were two standoffs against Ryuuma. Another one I would have put was Jin v. Kariya even though Jin got totally pwned lmao.

    Great list man. Fate stay night was a nice touch...

  • Woot, even though I thought Samurai Champloo deserved a spot up here, this list was still epic. I liked the number 1, totally deserved the spot!

  • One Peice had some of the most epic fights ever

  • ok the intro music was epic

  • Whats the first song?

  • Kenshin vs Hiko Seijuro, just - EPIC !

  • Rorouni Kenshin FTW ^^

  • What is the first anime?

  • No Samurai Champloo or Sword of the Stranger?!

    Other than that, nice job

  • fail theres no naruto shippuden

  • @kittyjerker123 You fail, cause naruto is not high in the anime world at all compared to these fine selections.

  • @coolio2654 naruto is one of the highest rated animes ever

  • @kittyjerker123 High ratings are not always the sign of a good anime.

  • @kittyjerker123 Yes, either you're a troll of just ignorant in anime in general. Bleach, Naruto, and One Piece and the Big Three. They get the most reviews and the best revenue, not saying they're bad, but not saying they're good either

  • @coolio2654 well i guess i just have a taste for naruto more

  • @coolio2654 Most shonen anime like Bleach and Naruto lack heavily in the story and charachter departement. However I have seen a LOT of anime and there are definitly a few exceptions. For instance, when it comes to shonen anime, Hunter x Hunter and One Piece are two of the biggest exceptions. Unlike most Shonen, they have great writing, story and developement. One Piece for example has over 500 episodes, yet never had power confusion, was never retcon and is always carefully written.

    - xenniex

  • Aaand whats the soundtrack at 4:24

  • And i love how Zoros eyes chang eat 2:04. And ZORO VS SAGA FTW

  • I see Ryuuma. I think One Piece. I click. I like
