(0:19) Words alone are not enough to describe just how incredible this little bit of animation is. Blending that late '90s art style with those thick outlines, the low usage of color and the fact there are next to no cuts *_really_* accentuate the sheer intensity of this fight scene. It kinda reminds me of "Rise of the TMNT's" intro animation.
Similar but short scenes like that I believe are called "impact frames". They are less detailed and would generally look very out of place but when used right it can look VERY good. I'm personally not a fan of how it's used in this scene, it's not only long which lessens the visual impact on the watcher but it's also used to show the character approaching and avoiding the target's attacks so not much goes on. In most other cases I can think of impact frames are used to start up very important motions and also when important attacks hit which gives off the extra "oompgh" and makes a scene more intense/exciting.
Now that is why they would call an absolute damage evasion ability. After all, the ability to not get caught by anything definitely is a Nifty power to have.
The animation in elusive samurai is on another level. I really wish the pacing was slower though. It feels like it goes mock speed with little character development outside of initial introductions. I want to see takiyuki's internal struggle.
The Japanese title is way funnier: “The young lord who’s good at running away” (Why do English translations always come up with the most boring titles?)

@@nadaburner This is not an impact frame. An impact frame, is, a, frame, as in the name. This is just a style of animation.
@@nadaburner The animation itself does have a few impact frames in it, however.
Tokiyuki takes "No Damage" to another Level 😮😁
Kind of like Sally in Bofuri, and they both like taunting their enemies while dodging too.
exactly
The animation in this anime is top tier ❤
A natural Observation Haki user.
Laughing his way through battle too

I think the protagonist actually decapitated that dude at the end of the fight
"Alright, these next few scenes will be made with paint!"
"Microsoft Paint?"
"Nooo..." takes out paintbrushes "Paint!"
"He bravely ran away away, he bravely ran away..."
He wasn't running away. He was just advancing. In a different direction.
🎶"Brave, brave Sir Robin, brave Sir Robin ran away!" 🎶
That was a Rounin Kenshin moment with the circle flare effect
Elusive Samurai was hands down the best show of the season, no contest
The first episode was already showing some good dodging skills, glad they keep that so fluid 😇
Need to see a game of dodgeball between him and Bojji.
😁⚔️🤺
Dodge Duck Dip Dive and Dodge.
They wouldn’t even be able to throw the ball 😆🤣😆🤣
And Iruma too😂
@@slaveeditzz He trained exactly to catch the ball instead of dodging
he's doing a no-hit run
The art reminds me of late 90s and I dig it!
Bro that Rurouni Kenshin special effect is truly iconic.
Now that is why they would call an absolute damage evasion ability.
After all, the ability to not get caught by anything definitely is a Nifty power to have.
Sounds like he plays Elden Ring.
