10 Epic Anime Fights Where The Villain Takes Zero Damage

3. Madara Vs Ninja Alliance - Naruto Shippuden

It's one thing when a new villain beats the living daylights out of one powerful protagonist, but nothing says "I am going to be a problem" like laying waste to an entire army of badass ninja warriors.

Madara Uchiha, one of the biggest bads in the story of Naruto, makes his grand entrance in front of the newly formed Ninja Alliance, seeking to do away with this nuisance-to-be right away all by his lonesome. And there is not a lot the Ninja Alliance can do to stop him, as he proceeds to storm through everything they throw at him in gloriously animated fashion.

This was the best possible opening the show could have done for our new main villain. If he had just trounced one or two characters, that would be fine - if predictable - but having Madara show that you can throw an entire army at him and it won't be enough was a terrifyingly effective method for introducing the final villain of the story.
