Member ShaOW!linDude Posted December 22, 2013 Member Share Posted December 22, 2013 This is the best I've come across as far as hand-to-hand and believe it or not, it's Street Fighter 2. The "Chun Li vs Vega" fight is just killer! http://www.amazon.com/Street-Fighter-II-Animated-Movie/dp/1573306886/ref=sr_1_3?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1387720379&sr=1-3&keywords=street+fighter+2+the+animated+movie The series was also pretty good. A little campy in some eps but still some quality anime fights. http://www.amazon.com/Street-Fighter-II-V-Collection/dp/B00008V2V4/ref=sr_1_5?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1387720379&sr=1-5&keywords=street+fighter+2+the+animated+movie And you can't go wrong with Ninja Scroll. Granted, it does have a magic/fantasy element, but it's not heavy with it, and the action/animation are the benchmark by which I judge all anime films. I also hear that Sword of the Stranger (?) is a fantastic Samurai anime film but have never seen it yet. Hope this helps somewhat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member kaleyboy Posted December 22, 2013 Member Share Posted December 22, 2013 You can't go wrong with the Fist Of The North Star (Hokuto No Ken) anime movie and TV series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member trueth Posted December 22, 2013 Member Share Posted December 22, 2013 Hand to hand fighting Baki The Grappler, Shootfighter Tekken (Not related to the game), Kenichi History's Strongest Disciple, and Ben To are good. And also The Fatal Fury movies are decent. Swordplay Samurai Champloo, Afro Samurai and Rurouni Kenshin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member ShaOW!linDude Posted December 22, 2013 Member Share Posted December 22, 2013 Argh! How could I forget The Fist of the North Star! Good movie. Never saw any of the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jeru the Damaja Posted December 22, 2013 Member Share Posted December 22, 2013 Dragonball Z: This series is arguably the greatest fighting anime of all-time. There are some fantasy elements, but nothing that will hinder your viewing experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jeru the Damaja Posted December 22, 2013 Member Share Posted December 22, 2013 Fist of the North Star is a classic as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Gwai LO Posted December 22, 2013 Author Member Share Posted December 22, 2013 I don't mind magic. I just don't want to watch a fight where they throw fire balls all fight.. Are any of these on Netflix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member ShaOW!linDude Posted December 22, 2013 Member Share Posted December 22, 2013 Good question. I'd think that Street Fighter 2, Ninja Scroll, & Fist of the North Star would be. Try searching for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are any of these on Netflix? Netflix dvd service will likely have them, streaming has Kenichi, Samurai Champloo and Afro Samurai so far. Most of the "good stuff" you have to search pretty hard for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
