10 Best Anime Fights Ever, Ranked by Choreography
Jan 1, 2025
There are several means by which to judge the quality of an anime fight. Some battles shine solely because of their drama, the story they tell, their animation, or the strategies the characters use against one another. What often goes overlooked when judging the best fights in the medium is the actual choreography behind them.
Some of the best anime of all time feature fights with unbelievable choreography. This includes battle Shōnen like Demon Slayer and Chainsaw Man, as well as action anime from other genres like Cowboy Bebop and the Fate franchise. These 10 fights are more intricate, detailed, and better flowing than any others in all of anime.
10 Gon vs Hisoka is One of the Most Energetic Fights in Hunter X Hunter
Gon Does Everything He Can Just to Land a Punch on Hisoka
Hunter X Hunter's Nen battles are known for being highly strategic showdowns that favor intelligence over raw strength. While Gon Freecss' fight against Hisoka Morrow isn't mindless, it's simpler than most of the fights that come after it. There's a beauty to this simplicity though, especially as Gon's goal isn't even to win, but just to punch Hisoka in the face.
The fisticuffs on display in the early parts of the fight are fast and furious, with Gon unleashing a flurry of punches and kicks, and Hisoka dodging them all before dramatically striking him down. When Gon does finally manage to smack Hisoka by destroying part of Heaven's Arena and using the rubble as cover, it's incredibly cathartic. The rest of the battle is even faster and more vicious, as Hisoka goes on the offensive, and uses his Bungee Gum to further beat Gon.
