Dalek : But you have no weapons ! No defenses ! No plan !
The Doctor : Yeah ! And doesn’t that scare you to death ?

OMIGOD! All the Samurai Champloo sequences I've seen so far! Woohoo! There's some butt-kickin', throwin over tables, flyin' threw the air, swingin' them swords kinda action for ya! And I hear they only get better! Especially the first one between Jin and Mugen in the teahouse. Yippeeee!!

*ahem*

hmmm. . .

And 'cause I just watched it, I was kinda diggin' the scene in ANC after Mikeage says that line about "I'm gonna kill you, your whelp, and. . ." And then they're off! Ohhh. Really don't wanna be callin' Toya's woman names. Kinda ticks him off. :o

That's all I got right now.

Ohhhh. That Ed and Mustang one was cool! Oh, and Lynxa, you just reminded me! That one in episode 19 of IY. Wasn't it? When Sesshy got the arm from Naraku. When IY rips that sucker off and just tosses it to the side. . . tres cool. :D

You're welcome. :D Truly, all of the fight scenes in SC are very awesome! (I totally agree with you, kisara!) They're well choreographed and animated, and they never let you down. (Though the ones I mentioned are the best, IMO.)

I agree with you about Hellsing, Pomidor! That had some really cool fight scenes too. I really liked Alucard vs. ... blondie.. uh, what's his name? (One of the Valentine brothers... right?). The best was Walter vs. the Zombies though simply because Walter kicks all kinds of you-know-what. (That would be so cool if the prequel manga gets animated. :love: )

Walter does rule, its very cool when he shows his "darker" side during fighting. Anyway if they did animate the prequel manga Im sure it would be very cool.... hmm... I should really find some synonyms for "cool".
