tfw ur browsing your favorite youtuber right as there is a new upload :)
The only fight scene (so far) in High School of the Elite was such a disarming and amazingly choreographed moment, it reminded me of the bus fight in Nobody by Bob Odenkirk.
i was just binge watching your vids, then i suddenly saw this lol
Captain Mack made a very very good video essay on the issue with Demon Slayer's writing and woeld building. I recommend everyone to watch it
New pov has been acquired amazing vid as usual thank you pey
Never clicked on a vid faster
wake up babe, pey just posted a new video
thanks for the upload as always :)
What I get from this video is, even if the fight doesn't make sense(magic system) it's so cool that people likes it (including me)
Personally, my opinion of a fight scene lay in seeing the intent of the participants. A lot of choreography is about distracting you with colours and motions, a stream of superficial actions which exists just for the spectacle but does little to actually advance the combatants towards the fight's conclusion. There is merit in that, the ballet-esque fights of Wuxia films for instance... but I like to see minds actively working the riddle out of how to win and experiencing that with them. Whether it's the insane gambits of Araki's Stand battles or the brutal punch-outs of Hajime no Ippo -- Investing into the narrative of the fight is what makes it truly memorable to me.
Honestly you nailed my thoughts so well I don't need to write my own comment. I don't feel like Demon Slayer has that fundamental narrative or character building to support its fights, just pure visual spectacle, which is why I don't particularly care for it.
while not an anime I think that arcane also has some outstanding fights by this metric, especially episode 7.
You should watch World Trigger, I think you'll like it, especially once you get to the B-rank Wars.
Such an underrated show
Dunno, but get the feeling that Demon slayer appeals to a younger audience now than it did at the start of season 1. Characters are (mostly) loud and annoying, looking at you Zenitsu, though the fights are pretty enough to be an effective sales pitch. The plot armour can feel pretty heavy at times, but oh look they killed some rando dude on the train movie thingie. I imagine most ppl watch the series to enjoy the pretty colours, or simply to see what Inosuke is getting up to.
Fate appocrypha actually has one of my favorite finale fight of every anime. They really showed what would happens if either side win and both the main protagonist and villain has their own goal and character. Most bad fights are usually about characters trying to win their opponent but not what's behind. In KmY ss1, the 2 best fight are both Tanjiro trying to protect his sister so he really have a goal. But fights like one with the drum demon is just straight up a "I want to win" fight which is much less exciting.
I think if you want to look at really good fight scenes in anime tgat are a bit outside the box of what people might think you should look at Pokemon XYZ, the choreography and animation is extremely well produced
Yoo have you considered channel memberships?
Yes
The others are pretty straight forward but what was "directing" measuring. Without a clear definition I have a hard time fully differentiating that from plot and choreography. It's almost like a weird middle in my mind. Are we simply talking about art direction or shot selection and the way it unfolds as a whole?
Demon slayer spoilers
Imagine going into the Rengoku vs Akaza fight being 100% positive Rengoku will win, so you skip to the end of the fight!
To call breathing a magic system is a stretch. It never claimed to be one. Outside of that, it was ok video.
Interesting 🤔
One piece since wano
I feel like choreo of demon slayer is at least a 7
I don't think demon Slayer has very good choreo honestly 7 is a bit too high
loved the video, hated captain mack, keep it up.
The Tengen vs Gyatoru fight from Demon Slayer is, in my opinion, pretty bad. I watch it and all I see is a kaleidoscopic, flailing mess of two characters screaming and slamming their swords together. I can never tell what’s really happening or who is winning, so I don’t care about the outcome.
