why do anime attacks 90% fail?

[Kyle Nuva]

whats the point of super flashy eye candy moves if its just gonna ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fail
and or said character cheats or doges? we see them standing there but a second before it hits
we assume they died but pull a classic magic trick out of their ass, just for the sake of looking cool and to get us excited but its been done to death and im kinda tied of it. LIKE CAN YOU NOT MOVE AND LET SAID HERO OR VILLAIN JUST ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ WIN WITH SAID ATTACK?

attacks such as:
throwing 1000's of energy balls

a giant ♥♥♥♥ you beam

the very forgotten distrusto disk

the final desperate attack

fire? whats that?

wind that can tear me apart? lol no such thing

water too and drownage? lol no

lightning storms? haha

the enemy is bigger? nope, never once has being a giant proven to work

no matter the anime or character, everyone is built like a tank even the weakest survives cause we need the slap stick comedy guy....

take a break until you're no longer numb to it?

sometimes it's cooler when you swing your sword and it misses, but fireworks come out.

but not everyone has a sword or fireworks.

can't leave people feeling left out, so...




same logic why most fighting games don't have a lot of 1hko moves or cheap easy combos, the kinds people use in real life.

This post heavily screams Dragon Ball and/or other Shonen ngl.

Nonetheless, I don't mind seeing an attack fail as long as the reason behind it makes sense and fits within the anime's narrative. Naturally, not everyone is built different and just casually eat attacks all the time; many actually have to parry, dodge, or at least block so they don't get immediately bodied for just standing around and staring.

Anime hax are a whole different can of worms though.

Attacks in dragonball failed so much, because piccolo taught gohan and others how to DODGE.

[Silverlight]

these characters have not watched naruto and learned the way of the ninja from kakashi
This is why they fail.

I used to watch Dragon Ball every afternoon. Until I realized that I'd watched five episodes and it was nothing but building up to a fight. That's two-and-a-half hours, a full-feature movie, in which nothing really happened.

b/c it's fantasy

anime is just like avenger's endgame but with actual good relationships and eye pleasing visuals

Ain't kinda funny that the show before it, Dragon ball isn't like that?

It was all a result of power-creep or power-escalation. The fights had to be bigger and better every time. Eventually, tectonic plates were cracking just from their power-ups.

And yeah, that was Dragon Ball Z. I do remember enjoying the first series more.

I enjoyed it -- it was so over the top for its time, I thought. I don't think I'd enjoy it again.

This was back when you could watch them all on YouTube. Probably 20 years ago.
