For there are only 2 people that know how to use more than 2 swords at a time and they are Zoro(3 swords) from One Piece and Erza(1-4) from Fairy Tail. Luffy from One Piece has to get a vote from me, his style makes for some of the most creative and greatest action scenes I've seen in anime. Death the Kidd with his handgun dual wielding is also great to see, altho he holds the guns upside down it's still very cool. Most of the guys from Sengoku Basara have cool styles, all of which are just OTT but immensely fun to see Hei from Darker than Black, I'll just quote Haladflire65 here Quote:

Goku and the main Earth fighters from DBZ. They were just so powerful while still remaining very mortal. They are probably the most powerful psionic warriors in all of fiction. Their ESP matched that of cosmic supervillains and they were all martials artists. Goku is an icon and his fighting style in the probably the greatest of all time, internationally. That includes comics, cartoons, manga, etc.
Domon Kasshu in G Gundam for giving us the iconic Shining/Burning/ Bakunetsu God Finger and the Sekiha Love Love Tenkyoken. Uchida clan for giving us the Sharingan Eye, the most iconic technique in Naruto. Twilight Suzuka from Outlaw Star, for being a hot chick with nothing under her kimono and using her wooden bokken to slice through the air with such great force she could make the very air she displaced cut anything. One of the first sword wielding warrior girls I remember from Anime. Erza Scarlet kind of shares some of her aspects. Spike Spiegel's Jeet Kune Do. (Cowboy Bebop) Iria from Iria:Zeiram the Animation. One of the earliest action girls I can remember. From then on, it was girls like Kallen Stadtfeld that got my attention. Himura Kenshin for being a complete badass as the Hitokiri Battousai and then inventing the most popular sword style of 1990s manga and anime, the style of the reverse blade katana. Capcom and SNK fighting game characters that spawned several anime over the years. Who can forget the Hadoken and Power Wave? Jubei from Ninja Scroll. Slice and dice. Roy Mustang has the coolest casting of fire of any character in anything, ever. Snap your fingers, they spark like flint and make stuff go BOOM! FMA:Brotherhood... just look at the scene in the sewers when he's igniting something viciously. Last edited by mechalord; 2010-08-01 at 06:13. |

Kuroudo Akabane of Get Backers: probably my favorite in terms of techniques. He carries 108 scalpels and can throw them with complete deadly accuracy, can run as fast as a car, and can pull out magical swords of blood to combat his opponents.
Ryō Mashiba of Hajime no Ippo: Just plain awesome, he's like an evil Thomas Hearns, even looks kind of like him a little bit. HnI has plenty of awesome fighting styles, Morikawa overemphasizes the special techniques which make it a little unrealistic but that is actually one of the most entertaining aspects. For instance; Mashiba's flicker jab that seems to stretch out several extra feet and literally pushes Ippo back. |

Definitely royal swordplay
The royal swordplay Aladdin uses in the magi siries is just so incredible to watch, he parries blows and then slides down the opponents swords, getting behind them. All around a cool style, which uses maneuverability over power.

The two rounds of Raiden vs Vamp in Metal Gear Solid 4 was probably one of my favorites. The former is a cyborg and that pull a lot of stunts whereas Vamp as his name says, can compete with him. Even the motion actors had problems making them.
