Best fighting scene ever in anime

From the movie : Sword of the Stranger

The movie itself was meh, very average characters and plot, don't expect a deep samurai movie (like Samurai X), mainly because these two guys fighting are clear copies of Zaraki Kenpachi from Bleach (the blond one) and Kenshin from Samurai X (the black hair one) in both background story and personality.

But the fighting animation saved this movie.

For those who are familiar with Fullmetal Alchemist : Brotherhood, this movie uses the same art style and animation.

i really dont like this anime sword of the stranger...this anime portrays a conflict between japanese and the chinese...but in actuality portrayed 2 non-japanese or chinese guys cross blades and the red hair dude won! so what was the story even about?

@Myoldnamesdontwork

The story is basically : Find the little guy and gain access to immortality... oh and and in a cheesy conflict just to make it look less shallow.

The blond is in it for the fight and only cares about the fight and is willing to anything to fight (Much like Zaraki Kenpachi for example). The other guy (The hero) is here by accident I suppose... But yeah, like I said in the description, the movie is really nothing special. They didn't even explain why the kid is needed for the immortality. Lazy writing? or just an excuse to sell an anime with great animation? Who knows !

@ReyLimo It is... Kenshin is one of the most well constructed and complex characters in the medium.

I disagree with the uploader, though. I think this movie was innovative in its themes and not shallow at all.

anime creators should learn more from this fight, nowadays the anime's are leaning forward to superpowers and crap when in reality a good fight is shown on how good theyre physical fighting prowes is with either fists or weapons.. just sayin

[kisara88888]

this fight is ridiculously stupid. to stay in close distance in sword fight means 2 corpses. this is not how sword fights look.

The music was good

[stimsWonderland]

@SoapMacTavishh I disagree, it's about a men who will not follow orders and it revolves around the plight of little helpless children. It's quite deep.

[hellinvador]

I disagree with you.

too many tears and snot)) Samurai Champlu or Afro Samurai better in fight scenes.

[Myoldnamesdontwork]

then what is the point of having 2 foreigners fight in japan...make it even stranger is these foreigners without any past. one serving under opressive chinese army, 2nd just happen to cross path with the other without having any grudge or obligations...putting their lives on the line.

the title say sword of the stranger? so i am guessing the two foreigners are the strangers? makes no fucking sense. this whole anime except the fighting scene is crap.
