Your favorite unbelievably cool moments.
« on: June 01, 2011, 05:09:44 pm »
You know the ones: They make you gasp in shock and then cheer, or bounce around madly, or yell "That was so bada--!" and then they quickly become some of your favorite moments in the anime or manga series you're checking out. Even if you're not a fan, that scene gets your approval.

My top favorite has to be from "Millennium of the Witch" by Yuki Hijiri, which stars the guy in my icon, Locke. It's the climax of the film, and Locke has been trapped on a huge space station that orbits a sun, as well as speared twice in the torso by the antagonist. With the antagonist's death, the space station is falling toward the sun, and over eighty psychics can't lift the station out of the gravitational pull.

So what's Locke do? Put a psychic shield around the entire station while it falls through the sun to safely come out on the other side, while in a whole lotta pain and practically bleeding to death. Once it's done, Locke gets up, exhausted but apparently healed, and goes to save his love interest. Amazing.

My second favorite takes place in "Bastard!!" by Kazushi Hagiwara. A lich came to attack the protagonists' city, and in doing so, sucked up the two strongest defenders -a spellcaster and a spellcaster-swordswoman- into a magically created black hole. Then a ninja, friend of the spellcasters, steps up and basically tells the lich he Will Not Pass. The lich slaps him around magically, but the ninja keeps getting up.

The lich finally howls, "You cannot escape the summons of death, and yet, mere flesh and blood, you battle on! Why is it, damn you?! Aren't you afraid to die?!"

Does the ninja stop and think about he could die? Does he pause to collect his nerve? No. He thinks about the woman he loves -the female spellcaster-, then grins and says, "No.... Just feel like it, that's all." And almost wins, which gives the spellcasters enough time to come back and finish the job.

Totally, totally awesome.



What're your favorite moments, everyone? ^n_n^

I am sure many of you have seen this clip on you tube, and for the life of me I cannot remember what anime it was in... but there is a giant mecha who is preparing to unleash a massive attack that was supposed to destroy something big, perhaps the world.  Any way you see a girl on the ground that is injured really badly and this other girl holding her up.  there is a bit of a pause as the mecha is still screaming the the girl kisses the other girlbafter saying `happy birth day` and there is that whole shoujo eye widen then close and accept thing. well the the mecha is hit with the power of the attack and the world presummably is saved.

Hmmm. Gurren Lagann. Which moment? Ehhh.. whatever moment I'm watching at that point in time. Hah hah.

However, more recently. I'm quite fond of a particular scene in Evangelion 2.22. Pretty much the climax of that movie and Shinji finally putting on his manly face makes me quite happy. I don't wanna spoil too much for those who haven't seen it. But for those who have, I'm sure you know exactly which part I'm talking about. Let's just say there's a certain someone he wants back and he'll get her back, "Even if it's the last thing [he] does".

My favorite moment would probably have to be from the end of Slayers Next.

Lina Inverse stands before Hellmaster Phibrizzo, who holds the lives of her friends in the palms of his hands.  He can literally kill them all with the snap of his fingers.  In exchange for her friends' lives, all Phibrizzo wants Lina to do is cast the Giga Slave, a spell so powerful that the slightest mistake will cause the spell to backfire and destroy the entire world.  Lina knows that Phibrizzo probably has a plan to make sure the spell backfires, but if she doesn't cast the spell then her friends will die.  Lina doesn't know what to do until Phibrizzo starts to threaten Gourry...

At this moment, Lina's magic amplifying amulets start to glow as she says, "I don't care who I get it from!  Give me the power to kill Phibrizzo!  If I can do that, I don't care what happens to me!"  And then she starts casting the Giga Slave, risking the entire world for the one chance she may have to kill Phibrizzo and save Gourry.  During the encantation, she says to herself, "If I lose control of this energy I could destroy the world... but right now, I choose Gourry over the entire world!"

Lina's determination and will always gives me chills during this scene.  It's just awesome!  And the Phibrizzo gets shafted by the Lord of Nightmares afterwards, is epic!

^^^Yes this!! I was crying then XD;;^^^

Lets see~ All of Tegami Bachi XD
Ok~ maybe one of my fav unbelievably cool moments, was when Lag became stronger than the artificial sun!
That kid's heart is strong.  It brought me chills.

Also the part with Nichi's twin sister.  She explains that you have to be emotionally mature in order to grow.
Nichi's child like appearance was a radical way of showing that.

Hellsing (manga too, but mostly OVA since it's one thing to see stills, and another to see it in action).  Alucard is fighting Tubalcain Alhambra (the Dandy Man), it's at the end of the fight, Alucard rears up to do his impaling, muscles bulging and ripping some of the bindings on his release outfit.  The Dandy Man sees this and as a last ditch effort tries to counter, card in hand.  Both let fly their hands at each others, a huge surge of power is released, each combatant's power fighting to overpower the other's.  Finally, we see Alucard's hand rip through the Dandy Man's, tearing it in two, in the process destroying Alucard's own hand.  He regenerates it, and before Alhambra can fall, Alucard grabs him by the head and bring him close to his face, telling him, "Now you will tell me your secrets," before biting into his neck and devouring his blood.  Like Jan Valentine, upon death, The Dandy Man combusts, the flames devouring Alucard as well.  Suddenly, the flames dissipate, and we see Alucard in his usual attire, chuckling and clapping his hands.
