10 Epic Anime Fights Where The Villain Takes Zero Damage

7. Wrath Vs Greed - Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

Just because the party getting their ass thrashed is another villain does not preclude it from this list. As such, let's look at one of the most terrifying villain moments in Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood.

Greed, one of the villainous homunculi who for reasons explained later has abandoned his genocidal family to go it alone, finally has his chickens come home to roost when he raises the ire of his mightiest sibling, Wrath The Furious. Who, it turns out, has been the Fuhrer of Amestris the whole time. Oh dear.

See, the Homunculi have plans for our protagonists, the Elric brothers, so Wrath doesn't quite like that Greed was trying to kill them. After slaughtering all of Greed's friends, the psychotic Homunculus makes frighteningly short work of Greed, who - in the short time we'd seen him fight with Ed and his master Izumi - was by all accounts invincible.

It's a brutal fight that showcases just what Ed and Al will be up against when they inevitably uncover the truth about their leader. The Homunculi may rule the country from the shadows, but that is definitely not for lack of being able to bring it in a fight.
