When An Anime Leaves You Speechless.

go beyond when we think of iconic anime moments we think of stuff like yo that was so high oh that was so sad oh damn that was so shocking but when you watch enough anime you start to notice familiar patterns in the premise the stories and definitely the moments that define them a big climactic fight a plot to Wish You Don't See coming a sad death of a character there are so many great moments like these that are extremely powerful in their own ways but isn't something you generally haven't seen before yes Demon Slayer episode 18 is absolutely hyper so are a lot of other beautifully animated high intensity fight scenes but sometimes there's a moment in an anime that just sticks out for me for different reasons some may even say that they hit different I said it I said the thing these are moments that might not be the most hype most iconic most talked about or even the most memorable but for one reason or another they've just refused to leave my mind so I've compiled a short list of giggax random anime moments that live rent free in my mind in no particular order or theme yes I'm only making this like a nerdout about [ __ ] I don't get to talk about enough obviously there's going to be spoilers so I'll make sure to show what I'm going to talk about before I start each segment but if you're anything like me I have this awful habit of discovering shows and movies I

foxy for sponsoring me today back to the video give me more give me more thank you music performances the climatic moment in any music anime that separates the men from the boys the woman from the girls the beeps from the boobs I'm not even a big music guy but great performances can be some of my personal favorite moments in all of anime there is a wave of emotion you can get that is different from a hype fight scene or a sad dramatic scene Harry K on your line April Angel Beats there are a lot of iconic music scenes in anime but to me no performance has made me feel such a journey of emotions as much as kids on a slope episode 7. thank you when you hear that the director and composer of Cowboy Bebop are teaming up again to work on a music drama revolving around Jazz you get excited and this is coming from someone who doesn't know the first thing about jazz except that one of the main tracks used in the show is the Jazz classic monin which is aptly named because every time I hear that sexy jazz beat it got me feeling like wait wait no wrong clip wrong clip uh yeah that'll do it's Japan it's the 1960s and you have two best friends who are about one seductive look away from kissing the homies good night and shouting though JoJo but at this point in the series they are having a little bit of a Lover's tip they aren't talking to each other their music group has broken up and the drummer has gone and joined another band right before the big school Festival music performance but oh no something's gone wrong before they're about to get on stage the setup was predictable we knew what was coming but that didn't detract from the magic we were about to see [Music] the school is treated to the purest unplanned jam session between two musicians you could ask for doing their own rendition of the sound of music's my favorite thing to Snow White Someday My Prince Will Come for four glorious minutes their musicians become their voice actors not a single line of dialogue is dotted between them but you understand everything they are saying to each other through the language of music and like the audience I was absolutely mesmerized I'll be honest I'm kind of illiterate when it comes to trying to break down to describe music so all I can say is that the beeps and the boobs fired up neurons in my brain so hard it might as well have turned the serotonin being released into goddamn crack yeah this scene was so good this jobs are so sexy it got me more bricked up than all edgy fan service anime I've watched combined and just when I thought I couldn't get more bricked up just when I thought they couldn't peek any harder they pulled this out [Music] in my mind too many anime feel the need to talk over their performances to tell you exactly what the characters are thinking to tell you exactly what you should be feeling and the beauty of this scene is that they just let the music do the talking from the perfectly accurate animation to the Callback to previous songs so the character developments you see on stage to the emotions this made me feel this scene is a [ __ ] Masterpiece are my all-time favorite music performance I've ever seen in an anime one voice acting without voice sighting we'd be watching a silent film and great voice acting can Elevate the most emotional scenes from an anime into something even more spectacular [Music] love you or we can break it there have been so many amazing moments of voice acting that I've seen in an anime I can't even come close to listing them all from the serious to the sad hyped to emotional to performances that are downright spellbinding like Restless vagrant you idiot we'll just steal off the miners now clearly the art of voice acting peaked here but that's a video game amazing voice acting features and some of the most iconic scenes in all of anime so it's incredible that the first thing that comes to mind when I think of a single voice acting scene that dropped my jaw to the floor is not from this or this but from a slightly above average Studio trigger show that no one bloody remembers when Supernatural battles become commonplace what does that mean he's an edgy tryhard fuckboy think of every overplay Trope every Bland isakai protagonist thinks makes them badass having a special power possessing some super secret knowledge that only they know that makes them better than everyone basically everything that's said from Eminence in the shadow tries to be without a shred of self-awareness that's this guy here and hakuto has had enough oh so you know you are dare think of everything you've ever wanted to scream and shout at every edgy too cool for school teenager you've met and that's where hakuto is because for two unstopping uncut unfiltered minutes she just unloads foreign [Music] she continues for another goddamn minute while upping the intensity it is downright captivating foreign opportunity and she took it Mom's spaghetti stories from the staff members came out about how she nailed this on one take and left everyone in the recording booth in silence and honestly I can't blame them because I think I'd realize Sue that I just witnessed one of the best voice acting moments in history damn Restless vagrant got some competition I love anime fans but God damn some of y'all got that Tick-Tock brain if there's not a character getting punched or something exploding every five minutes I gotta start playing some Subway Surfer at the bottom of the screen to make sure you guys are paying attention but when done right nothing is more engrossing to me than a good dialogue scene Aaron confronting Reinhard yangwen Lee meeting Reinhard pretty much anything from monogatry these are moments of nothing but characters talking that had me glued onto the screen more than any Michael Bay Mega minus explosion ever could but the one dialogue scene I always come back to is the banquet of Kings from Fate Zero episode 11. one all right pause now I know this is lesser scene and more an entire bloody episode but that's how gripping it is I've watched this subbed I've watched this dubbed I've watched this goddamn raw and I'm still hooked from minute one to minute 20. and no it's not because I get another chance to explain fate all right so let me explain fate what is the card we've got a battle royale to the death going on where there can only be one Victor out of seven teams that comprise of seven Majors who are paired up with a hero either from Legend or real world history probably even [ __ ] do this again now at this point we are well into this battle royale people have died battles have already been fought every team is at each other's throats then out of nowhere one of the heroes bust through the enemy's stronghold turns up at that doorstep faces off with them and he's like fans are going to the pub and grabbing a pint die in the life of a true brexit gazer that's right no swords no fights what proceeds to happen is a whole episode of three of the heroes sitting around in a circle drinking and talking just a bitter banter this is a prime example of what happens when you put a bunch of interesting Larger than Life characters in the room together and let them carry a scene with dialogue alone because while at the beginning it's nice just to see these characters interacting without the pretense of a fight it really starts to kick off when the topic of what it means to be a true king comes up I have every intention of plundering your abundance to our house until it's been laid bare so get ready that is hardly fitting of how a true king should behave Gilgamesh Ryder Alexander the Great and saber King Arthur three legendary Kings from their respective time periods with three different types of kingship one of selfishness one of ambition and one of Duty each of them presenting their case while tearing the others down and it is enthralling because while there are no punches being thrown I would argue that this is one of the most compelling fights in all of Fate Zero it's a battle of ideologies using their words as their weapons not a single line is wasted not a single useless sentence is uttered this is what Twitter users see in their Mind's Eye and what I love is just how Bloody convincing they actually are you don't start believing they're kings because the plot told us they were you can see it you start believing of them yourselves with the words that they say cause God damn it is delivered in an inspiring way for the people in its fictional universe and in real life as well you who became a ruler only to satisfy your endless greed a king without greed is even worse than a figurehead saber you said you would martyr yourself for your ideals in life you must have been something akin to the purest of all the saints but who can truly admire the rough and thorny path that a martyr must follow in life who actually dreams of such an ending a king must be greedier than any other you must laugh more loudly and rage for much longer and embody The Very extreme of all things good and evil my man's out here making a case for being a tyrannical leader and I'm somehow being convinced because I think the most amazing thing about this scene is that objectively they are all right and they are all wrong in their own way it should be impossible for anyone to actually win this fight yet through sheer Charisma and Giga chat energy a winner does emerge through his words and actions Ryder is able to shake saber's ideology to her core his words cut deeper than any sword ever could and if that wasn't enough he ends things off with a demonstration that shows her what his kingship means and he uses his Noble Phantasm essentially his all don't worry about it a move you should really not be revealing to your enemies willy-nilly just to prove a Goddamn point oh it was so worth it this was the most epic conclusion for one of the most gripping dialogue scenes I've experienced from an anime no matter who would eventually go on to win the Holy Grail War ultimately Ryder won over our hearts in the scene which was oh so on point for this legendary character my bond with them is my greatest treasure my path to kingship the ultimate Noble Panther awesome that I possess [Applause] oh my God his Noble Phantasm is the friends he made along the way all right that was a really long segment so you know what anime dancers there's been a lot of iconic anime dancers throughout the years if you're in my generation she could dance if you're a goddamn Zoomer Jujutsu Kyson ZD if you're on Tick Tock JoJo's torture dance if you're on grinder but out of everything there's been one dance I swear a broken YouTube's replay button watching shirobako episode 16. alright so you gotta promise me promise me you're not gonna leave this video to find this clip and replay it 10 times after I finish playing it or I promise like pinky promise I trust you because otherwise I'm gonna tell your mom I swear I'm gonna tell her you're a little liar liar pants on fire play the clip [Music] that's it that's the scene you still here when people talk about Shonen battle series we say stuff like damn that was such a banger fight scene or damn I can't believe this guy just called Jujitsu kaisun mid oh damn is that a Dragon Ball fan of more than 10 IQ but beyond the fights the souls and the hype nothing has quite sold me on a long-running Shonen faster than the 20 minutes of Chaos in chainsaw man episode 9 and makima's ritual am I doing a bit of a cop-out by picking a moment from one of the most hyped recent anime yes did I want to talk about this so I have something to clickbait this video with in the thumbnail maybe but this stands out to me as how to do a turning point in your story please don't kill me with joking tensei fans more than any of the Chainsaw massacring fight scenes more than any of the boob touching makima Caboose sniffing action this showcased that a battle Shonen could do more than just drop a cool action scene on you because what stood out to me the most is that out of nowhere the show just turns into a full-on survival horror as makima looks at light laughs in his face and goes heart attack what are you into little baby [ __ ] this is how you send a message what gets me about this entire sequence it's just the sheer emotional Whiplash after everything that's been built up we had seven episodes establishing your usual Shonen Affair then in just one episode you realize oh the people I thought were safe are definitely not these villains are way more terrifying than I ever gave them credit for then the series doesn't even give us five minutes to process that before throwing a fat una reverse card in our face you feel a sense of eerie dread for the bad guys it does a better job than 90 of horror anime have ever done the direction the music her unsettlingly calm demeanor the fact that these people can sense that they're about to die of violent death before they do is a [ __ ] horrifying thought and after everything is said and done you're like wait should I be more terrified of the good guys or the bad guys here this was just such a brilliantly directed scene from start to finish that went beyond the great action you expect from a Shonen and if that was just a taste of the Mayhem to come chainsaw man season 2 cannot arrive soon enough until then I have to live with the scraps I've got to find out what's really going on behind the Terra boner markama has given us as the true horror antagonist herself [Music] flowers of evil was an anime that looked like this look at this dude this was a show that took some creative decisions with this Asylum Aesthetics and when it aired in 2013 the internet destroyed it meme after meme screenshot after screenshot it got clowned on Into Obscurity but now that time has passed I think people are starting to realize that we didn't really give it a fair chance sure sometimes the visuals look so bloody ridiculous but it looks more like a comedy from a thriller but behind all that there is a truly amazing story being told here one that explores the darkest parts of our human emotions that we bury behind the public mask we wear and there's one scene that has always stuck out to me in this series that everyone had already written off flowers of Evil episode 7. takao kaska starts the series as someone who believes he is different to everyone because that's the person he wants to be pretending to enjoy obscure poetry being an all-around edgy [ __ ] he's not like other boys there are two wolves inside of him the winner complicated girl [Music] Nakamura sees him in a moment of weakness she knows what perverse and sick desires lie beneath the surface he presents she torments him wears him down and blackmails HIM Tears into him for days until you see all of his fake ideals and the facade he wears crumble into nothing this scene is that Breaking Point foreign proceed to completely wreck the classroom in an explosion of catharsis as he Embraces who he really is with a sheer visceral display of emotions it is almost chilling watching this manic destruction of their classroom as every layer of his old Persona is peeled off one by one this was the moment where I fully understood the Creative Vision that semi-realistic uncanny look on top of the eerie unnerving music left me with a symphony of conflicting emotions few anime are able to make me feel it was equal parts and settling as it was beautiful that final shot for the circle of chaos they created is an image that's etched into my mind just them laying there two messed up teenagers in a room matching how [ __ ] up things are in their head this was then I understood this was why the show looked like this this was what akunohana was meant to be there was something special here and a sad more people didn't give this a chance for a season 2 to be made hentai foreign there are many moments in anime that get me emotional enough to get the Waterworks running sad parts that pull up the heartstring until there are no emotions left to ring out but sometimes I watch a scene that makes me tear up even if there's nothing sad happening on screen and one of those moments is the running scene from episode 2 of a place further than the universe [Music] this scene hits me every time I re-watch it Bar None and I still don't fully understand why because I'm the only one I've talked to that has had this kind of emotional response to this moment but if I had to quantify it if I could pick a scene so perfectly captures the Carefree moments you remember from your younger years this is it it is Pure Freedom [Music] we all have a cherished memory tucked away somewhere of some dumb crap you got up to as a kid that one random thing you and your mate did on that summer holiday getting up to some stupid Antics on that one trip you took with your siblings or family we didn't realize how precious those moments would be or how fondly we'd look back on them when we were older and what gets me is this overwhelming feeling that we're seeing one of these Precious Memories being made right in front of us three girls going out of their comfort zone to go on an adventure and just having the time of their lives doing dumb [ __ ] I will never not adore this moment maybe even more so than some of the more serious scenes in the series it might not be the most hype the most sad or the most dramatic moment you can find in anime but it gets me emotional in a way few are ever able to I love this show [Music] and that was everything I had time to talk about today I didn't even get through a tenth of everything I could have talked about but I don't want this video to be an hour so who knows if you guys like this enough maybe I'll do some more of these types of videos if you didn't already know I'm going to be touring Europe with trash taste in September this year a lot of tickets
