I read comedy mangas, but what's the coolest scene you've seen in an action manga? Like, a part where it takes two whole pages.

The best two page action scene I've ever seen was from Alice 19th: spoiler[when Nyozeka dies and there is on the two pages is Alice and Nyozeka's bloody body, with a empty white background. ]

Just general coolness, not actually part of an action scene, I love a scene in Bleach Vol. 12 where spoiler[Kenpachi introduces himself to Ichigo, claiming that either he or Ichigo will be dying.] I think the air and expressions of both characters is just extremely powerful. As part of an action scene, without a doubt is One Piece Vol. 25, where spoiler[Luffy defeats Bellamy with one punch.] Now *that* was cool as hell.  I especially spoiler[like the position of Luffy and the impact picture.]

 That just proves to you the difference between a 50,000,000 berry bounty that's a jerk and is way too cocky and a 100,000,000 bounty who has seen death many times and who doesn't lose his composure. spoiler[Plus defeating a "shichibukai"]

I have to go with Magic Knight Rayearth when the girls spoiler[kill the "evil" Emeraude.] Of course, it's even harder to watch in the anime.

One of the coolest scenes that immediately comes to mind is the end of the first fight between Ginji and Akabane in GetBackers. Ginji ends up spoiler[using his electricity powers as a magnet to yank all of Akabane's scalpels from his body. It looks like a big, bloody explosion.] It's just a really neat scene. What makes it even better, IMO, comes in a future volume when Akabane cheerfully explains spoiler[that Ginji can't pull the same trick again because he switched to ceramic scalpels].
There's also a wonderful battle between Emishi and a couple goons during the Venus de Milo arc. |

I just read the third volume of Eden, and I'm really impressed by how exciting the action scenes were. While Endo's action perhapse lacks the grace and clarity of Katsuhiro Otomo (Akira remains a milestone in action manga), he makes up for it in inventivness and pure brutality. Few things are as cool as Kenji butchering a group of heavily armed soliders with nothing but a pair of knives (and unlike most action manga, making it seem believable).
Blade of the Immortal has become famous for it's frantic swordfights. My particular favorites are Shira vs. Magatsu in volume 12 (just for the fact that the former is such a lunatic) and anything with Giichi in it for being a sheer badass. On the flipside to Blade's over-the-top spectacles, the fights in Vagabond are refreshingly realistic yet no less gripping. As for shonen manga, the clear winner in my mind is One Piece for sheer wackyness. Instead of trying to take itself seriously like so many other series (how serious can it be when you take five minutes to explain how your attack works to your opponent?) it has fun with fights, making reading them worthwhile rather than something I want to just skip. |
