All Might vs. All for One? More like ass.



Forgive the choppy cutting, watch the actual episode 65 if you want a smoother ride, but goddamn this is a movie-level production. Momoshiki actually gets a chance to demonstrate exactly how Kaguya should have been fighting about in the War Arc. No portal nonsense, no genjutsu foolishness, no overly convoluted explanations of how what just happened happened, just pure taijutsu goodness coupled with some summon shenanigans to ramp up the scale. Oh, when Naruto does it right, it does it the best. At least when it comes to shōnen.

I heard they sourced animators from around the world to produce this thing, and it took about four months to finish. Well done.

Yeah its kind of not even close.

All Might vs All for one is easily better.

some parts are missing in that video

if anything you guys need to watch the episode from the beginning to the end, so fluid so smooth and well directed and bundled in a perfect way

from beginning of the episode to the end

All might vs All for one is simplistic compared to the fight choreography compared to the Boruto fight.

I said it before, but this was the real HxH Episode 131 of 2018 all along. D:

Just completely took me by surprise, it was AMAZING.

The current story arc is an extensive retelling of the movie, based upon the manga's retelling and Kishimoto's original script.

Yeah, the whole arc has kinda been up and down animation wise. They reused a ton of footage from the movie whenever they could. But on the whole it's been a good adaptation, and it ended in this utterly amazing fight.

WHY THE FUCK DOES NARUTO STILL HAVE HIS FUCKING CHILD VOICE

God DAMN
Click to expand...
Click to shrink...

Because
A) Shonen protagonists are young and are almost never recasted
B) He's not even an adult until Boruto, which is a post original series show that they aren't going to recast

Mostly insanely long filler arcs.

Completely agree with you OP. Don't think any anime this year will top this.

Yeah they still want chakra for that eternal life

But that shouldn't deter you because it's mostly about boruto and the chunnin exams

well Momo does

we have no clue what the main clan wants and so far via their scout Urashiki, they just seem to be trolls

I like MHA, but it isn't a show I watch for the action scenes. It highs can't even compete with og Naruto, or even the highs of DB super.

Agreed.

I love that fight from a story and emotion standpoint, but on a technical level it doesn't come close to this

This episode also had a great emotional standpoint as well, was really well rounded, I'm deeply invested in Boruto and Naruto's relationship haha

I think sarada is damn good. Shikadai is good too even if he's just shikamaru 2.0

Sure the fight is more detailed but the emotional stakes behind a fight can make or break it

It's why rock lee vs gaara is one of the best fights in anime
