As the decade wraps up, certain fights were so memorable they still linger in viewers' minds. These fantastic battles made their mark — enticing fans to rewatch their epic collisions over and over again.

Updated on March 25th, 2022 by Sarah Martin: Though the 2020s have just begun, several anime fights graced our television screens in the past two years. These fights kept the audience on the edge of their seat. Some of the best battles came from new releases, such as Jujutsu Kaisen and Tokyo Revengers. Established favorites, such as Attack On Titan, proved they still has plenty of fight left in them. These battles include excellent choreography and impressive execution, but most importantly, they captivate the audience until the very end.

Nobara Kugisaki and Yuji Itadori's fight against two of the Death Painting siblings, Eso and Kechizu, was one of the most epic anime fights of all time. The fight took place during the final episode of Jujutsu Kaisen's first season. Yuji and Nobara committed 100% of their abilities and willpower to take down the brothers.

This fight was a pivotal moment for the series and the perfect way to end the season. Nobara and Yuji unleashed the best of their jujutsu techniques during this fight — most notably, Nobara's hairpin technique destroyed Kechizu instantly after Yuji punched him with a Black Flash.

Wit Studios, which also worked on Attack on Titan, animated Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song. Though many fans ignored the show because it was an anime original, Wit Studios must be praised for their beautiful execution of this fight.

Everything was hand-drawn, and all of the martial arts were choreography in a flawless, cohesive way. Perhaps its most impressive accomplishment was how Wit Studios made the Diva Vs. Yugo fight so high-paced and yet maintained its stability throughout the battle. This fight was nominated at the 2021 Crunchyroll Anime Awards.

13 Tokyo Manji Gang Vs. Valhalla Was An Absolute Brawl

The best fight in Tokyo Revengers' first season was undoubtedly when the Tokyo Manji Gang fought Valhalla. This was a significant moment in the plot, as the two gangs fought each other to prove who the superior gang was. During the battle, Kazutora proved to be too far gone and both sides suffered significant losses.

Poor Takemichi got caught in the middle and was especially in danger because he lacked fighting skills. His goal was to convince Mikey to kick Tetta out of the gang because he's a vile man, but he also had to try and get Baji's attention — on top of staying alive in what turned out to be a bloodbath.

One of the most anticipated fights in the entire Attack On Titan series was the fight between Eren Yeager and the War-Hammer Titan. This fight saw a return of Eren's titan form. Fans' jaws hit the floor as the sheer chaotic nature of this battle unfolded before them.

This was also, perhaps, the first time fans started to conclude Eren was no longer the hero of theis tale. The Eren Vs. War Hammer Titan battle sequence was the perfect end for the first cour of Attack On Titan's final season.

Jujutsu Kaisen knows how to deliver excellent fights. Perhaps the best anime fight since the beginning of the 2020s was when Aoi Todo and Yuji Itadori teamed up against Hanami; a special grade cursed spirit. This fight was a standout, not just in the series but in anime as a whole.

The battle is animated to make its violence look absolutely exquisite as Yuji and Aoi take on Hanami's flowery attacks.

The incredible clash between these two powers concluded with Mob smashing his opponents into the ground after lifting himself several hundred feet in the sky.

Although there was a huge difference of power between the two, the Netero vs Meruem fight was choreographed beautifully,perfectly showcasing the level of skills Meruem possessed.

With a magnificent staff, Saitama vs. Boros gave viewers some of the most high-quality action seen in anime, and possibly ever. With big names such as Yutaka Nakamura, Kameda, among many others working on the episode, it's no wonder Saitama's drubbing of Boros became all it turned out to be.

While there are many battles to pick from, Levi's clash against Zeke was quite incredibly animated, thanks to hours and hours of effort from the staff at Wit Studio.

The fight opened with the death of Erwin Smith, who used his body as a shield to open up a path for Levi to strike down the Beast Titan, and he delivered.

Although Boruto may not be as popular as Naruto once was, there is no denying some of the fights it featured have been downright mind-blowing. One such fight was when Naruto and Sasuke clashed against Momoshiki Otsutsuki in Boruto Episode 65. This episode is widely considered to be an animation marvel because of how beautiful the fight looks, thanks to some of the most creative storyboarding and direction from Pierrot's rising talent Chengxi Huang.

The final scene wonderfully depicted the passing of the torch from the old generation to the new generation, and it remains one of the reasons why Boruto is held in high regard.
