I'm not a big fan of people who are supposedly trying to kill each other having a chit-chat during the fight. I automatically lose some respect for a character (especially a villian) who uses the line 'You're pretty good.' or otherwise compliments his opponent. Are you trying to kill each other or is this all some big joke? Maybe it's just me...
Otherwise I like fight fast and fluid with some kind of choreography. Clever or humorous use of the environment really makes fights interesting (see: Jackie Chan, Pirates of the Carribean, etc...) |

I generally like sword fights,hand to hand,gunfights,etc that are semi realistic.Believable enough that I dont face palm yet cool enough to enjoy.I also feel that fights should be quick and decisive like the first few sword fights in scrapped princess or the quick and brutal super powered fights in darker than black.

Choreography makes all the difference in presentation and makes even the tedious look exciting while making the exciting look like a masterpiece... Although I like shounen series like Naruto and Bleach, the anime usually only leaves me seriously engaged for a period amount of time before I fall to the fatigue of the uninspirational...But every now and then, if the animation team can throw in some good action shots and choreograph the scene with fluidity and clarity, I can take it in full... I.E.: In Bleach, I liked the choreography used during the third Ichigo vs. Byakuya fight during the SS arc...In Naruto, the final Naruto vs. Sasuke fight, and in Shippuuden, the Naruto vs. Orochimaru fight... The Wachowski Brothers and John Woo also have a good eye for action choreography...Speaking of Star Wars from earlier, George Lucas, as ridiculous as he can be sometimes, had a good eye in the lightsaber duels in Episode III; See how far the scenes in III came from Episode IV, especially the Obi-Wan vs. Vader duels...CG can only do so much if the shots aren't well-placed... So yes, choreography plays an immense role in my personal interest... |

I prefer hand-to-hand fights, without godly superpowers involved (a few supernatural power is ok).
for example in advent children the best fighting scene imho was Tifa against Loz, i really liked it. The rest was just too much over the top for my tastes.

I prefer highly fluid hand to hand combat or swords, something that evokes the visceral and violent nature of a fight, because fact of the matter is gun fights just are not as stylized as playing an fps. an example of the type of fights i like, would be any fight in samurai champloo, lust/greed v scar

I like the kind of fights that are planned out tactically and with high efficiency, like in Black Lagoon where Balalaika has all her troops "herd" the two Romanian kids into a sniper trap.
Otherwise, fights like the kind in Samurai Champloo are good too. |

Awesome Spear fight. I have to say those moves are epic. Nonetheless, the moves are flawless.

Ohhhh man fight scenes are one of favorite things about anime. I am not really for the whole Bleach/Dragon ball Z type fighting though. I prefer fight scenes like the one in Fullmetal Alchemist between Ed and Greed around ep.30. It was just a beautiful display of an anime fight scene, just beautiful.

hm. samurai champloo had good sword fights.
aachi and ssipak had cool gunfights. couple of awesome fights in naruto. but the best fist fight award goes to Real drive.(never expected it to have them) this level of fluidity sends ikkitousen, tenjho tenge, kenichi and the like to hell. so i like motion fluidity in fights. and i would have liked very long fights, if there were any. (dbz and naruto - fail. they talk to much, the adrenaline goes away fast)

As for me, I probably prefer some sort of hand to hand combat, either with weapons or barehanded, but anything that's done "right" works for me. I like mecha fights, gun fights, supernatural battles, intellectual trickeries and just about anything you can throw at me. Anything that's choreographed well always tickles my fancy, and if a lot of people die and there's blood and guts flying everywhere, that's just dandy.

Obviously adrenalin-pumping gunfights would be my first choice like those in Ghost in the Shell, but I consider most of the sword-fightscenes reaching the quality of FSN enjoyable too.
I don't like fights with ridiculous superpowers, needless dialogues infight (biggest turn-off really), too flashy animation (especially with inappropriate colors). I find mecha-fights silly too, but I can watch such series where they play some part, provided they aren't the main aspect of the series (like FMP). I especially dislike mechafights with swords or lances (not to mention bows lol), the concept itself seems so impractical and illogical, that I sometimes find myself asking "what the hell I'm watching again?". |
