10 Epic Anime Fights Where The Villain Takes Zero Damage

6. Terry Vs Krauser - Fatal Fury: The New Battle

Didn't see this one coming, did you? One of the best video game adaptations ever comes from the last place any but the most hardcore fighting game nerds would see coming, the Fatal Fury series, with Fatal Fury 2: The New Battle.

This movie hits all the beats you would expect out of a flick like this, but with such a flair and polish that you hardly mind. Especially not when one of its opening fights is a gloriously brutal smackdown where our main character, Terry Bogard, gets the stuffing beaten out of him by series staple, Krauser.

He corners Terry in an alleyway and goads him into a one-on-one brawl, where he then proceeds to toy with the poor man like he's a cat playing with his food. Not only taunting him to keep up even after Terry throws his most powerful move at him, but even going so far as to crush his metal plated baseball cap in his hand like it's a piece of paper, before finally putting Terry in the dirt.

Terry's lost plenty of times before, but this defeat BREAKS him, leaving him a disillusioned drunk - a rut that takes him most of the movie to finally get out of.
