Who is the best martial artist in all of anime?Not who is strongest, or best abilities. In terms of pure skill on an equal playing field who would you pick?
My dad.
>>285161123Whoever the writer wants to be the best.
>>285161123me
It sure smells like reddit in here
>>285161123I just realized Yujiro has a six pack on his fucking back. What a god.
>>285161796must be your phone
>>285161917it's a face
I genuinely don’t think I’ve ever seen a single mangaka convey skill in a way that didn’t feel extremely forced
>>285162717that usually happens when you only read shonen
>>285161123At some point that doesn't really matter, because things become ridiculously childish and unrealistic. Like, Yujiro can just learn literally every technique by just seeing it once, and so can other bullshit martial artists like Goku. So how do you measure things here if the "top tiers" are all bullshit masters? You'd have to consider a level of scrutiny in terms of realism to measure it properly, since at least half of anime characters are master martial artists from training for a week or something, when it reality it takes months, years on end and a lot of talent to get that good.
>>285161123Jackie Chan.
>>285161123This isn't a hard question, OP. It's Kenshiro.
>>285161123Yujiro because he can do human nunchucks.
>>285162717Aside from the Fujiwara Zone and some other shit toward the end, Initial D made the skill feel pretty believeable because it actually explained how a fair share of the driving techniques work with advice from an actual expert. That said, it's not really about fightan so different type of skill.
>>285164278Kenshiro's display of martial arts relies off bullshit pressure points that don't exist.
Has the skills of the greatest fighters all rolled up into one.
>>285164314i like yujiro because every time he hits anyone the art is peak
>>285165044Anime characters don't exist.
>>285165044HnK characters that Kenshiro fodderizes beat the shit out of world class boxers in the story, who cares
>>285165171love this shit so much
>>285165284Making someone explode by touching them might as well be magic. Kinetic force does not work that way.
>>285165399>>285165044>character is undoubtedly more skilled than any man in history>learns shit by seeing it once>can accurately read what an opponent does without any issue>can plan out a fight better than a guy with precognition can>some retard online will still claim the character is not skilled because the verse isn't a 1:1 depiction of IRLKen would be world class if he existed IRL just based on him analyzing and countering enemies.>m-muh pressure pointsis like a third of what he can actually do>b-butYou just wank MMA or something instead of talking about skill as something a character can accrue.
