Anime is full of great fights. What are the best of the best?

Some of my favorites:
Cowboy Bebop - Spike vs Vicious (The Real Folk Blues Part II)
Samurai Champloo - The Baseball Game (which, in turn, inspired one of my favorite scenes from The Boondocks)
Trigun - Vash vs Knives
YuGiOh - Yugi vs Kaiba (Battle City), Yugi vs Joey (Duelist Kingdom), Yugi vs Atem (Ceremonial Battle)

Kenshiro Vs. A tank:
Lotsa other Fist of the North Star fights, really, but this one deserves special note.

Kenshiro vs Raoh from Fist Of The North Star is the absolute classic anime fight. Always loved me some Ichigo vs Byakuya from Bleach. Rock Lee vs Gaara is the peak of Naruto. All Might vs All For One the same in MHA. Creator aside, Kenshin Himura vs Makoto Shishio from Rorouni Kenshin is probably the peak final boss fight in anime. Literally every Ippo fight in Hajime no Ippo + Takamura vs Bryan Hawk (which is the greatest wrestling match and storyline ever seen on a boxing anime). The final confrontation between Amuro and Char in the original Gundam is iconic af. There's just so many absolutely great fights in anime that it would take a while to mention them all.
I will, however, mention one that would not be considered normally. Taiga vs Sumire from Toradora. Very few fights in anime feel as personal as when two girls go at it, and this one might just take the cake at that.

Rurouni Kenshin: Kenshin, Saito and Aoshi vs. Shishio The original Kenshin vs Saito fight was really good, too.
From Bleach, I really liked the fight between Ichigo and Kenpachi during the Soul Society arc.

Some of my favorites: Cowboy Bebop - Spike vs Vicious (The Real Folk Blues Part II) Samurai Champloo - The Baseball Game (which, in turn, inspired one of my favorite scenes from The Boondocks) Trigun - Vash vs Knives YuGiOh - Yugi vs Kaiba (Battle City), Yugi vs Joey (Duelist Kingdom), Yugi vs Atem (Ceremonial Battle) Yu-Gi-Oh has so many banger fights/duels and has no right to be as good as it is. If Naruto ended after the Naruto vs Pain fight, I would have no issues. Sasuke vs Itachi is also good stuff. Goku Vs Vegeta (first fight) has to be up there. Also the Goku vs Piccolo JR (World martial arts tournament from og Dragon Ball) is also a fantastic fight. Black Lagoon: Revy vs Roberta |

Dragonball has many but honestly the first Tournament final between Goku and Roshi is still a classic. I watched Z beforehand so wasn't at all predicting that Goku would lose. Dragonball fights get memed on a lot (justified often), but this whole fight was just a masterwork.

For oblivious reasons I thought that this fight was greatest thing ever when I was 14.
But watching this movie last night for the first time since I was a teenager, I was pleasantly surprised at how good a fight it was.

Goku v Chun, Goku v Ten and Goku v Piccolo Jr are all f***ing awesome. I love Goku v Grandpa Gohan as well |
