Nice find. But it is cool and slightly pathetic at the same time that someone found those scenes.

This seems like a great moment for a family guy quote'
"Our favorite pastime is watching old movies to see if they sync up in any meaningful way to the eagles album 'hotel california'. We've been doing it for the past 20 years."
"Any luck yet?"
"No....."

That short fight between Spike and Vincent was sooo much better than any fight in Naruto.
I'm not sure which came first, but I'm guessing CB.
I was never really a fan of Neji vs Naruto's fight anyway, but Vincent vs. Spike was pure badass.
a) that was years ago, b) no one cares, c) I'm not going to say get a life, but do something more entertaining with your time than look this crap up (or make this, which I doubt you did, but it's possible).
For some reason I think a thread has already been made about this.....
I saw this on ytmnd.com at least a year ago. So it isn't ne at all, but it's still a bit distressing. Maybe that's why they had to get a new narrator around the time of the Sasuke vs Naruto fight. Anyone ever notice the severe drop in visual quality there? It's still not as good as it once was.
i think i read somewhere that the naruto scene was a tribute to the cowboy bebop one. not sure where...
There're no clones in the Bebop version, so I can't see the resemblance. Bebop sucked anyways.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Probably here, in this thread. Unfortunately the original picture that Terra linked to is long gone, but it showed a lot more of the fight was parallel than what ody has posted.
The fatass nerd watching 20 animes at the same time is telling me to get a life? ROFL.Originally Posted by Yukimura
I found this on another forum I frequent, Bodybuilding.com, which I'm sure you have never lifted a weight in your life and decided to post this GIF here.
i found this interesting. i'd not seen it, since i'm not all that old on this forum...
fuckin figures that this 'tribute' or 'copying' or whatever would go on... in the world of sequels, prequels and all other money making exploits that leech off of previous successes, i can imagine that a good show like Bebop (Animeniax, once again you prove to suck balls. Your opinion sans reasoning fails for the infinite time) would be copied, but i didn't notice the parallel until i saw this.
Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
Apparently Bleach and Naruto have the same scene (I think); I think right before the filler ends in Bleach, Ichigo is fighting someone by a big waterfall and it's supposed to be a mirror image of Sasuke vs. Naruto @ the waterfall.
@ody If you read the post you'd see I specifically didn't say get a life, I said do something more entertaining with your time, to which I should have added, if your going to bother showcasing it to the rest of us. I'd rather watch paint dry then see some old footage of similarities between two fight sequences in an anime. Especially since the similarities you mentioned were discussed at length back when that episode of Naruto had first aired. Something that might be entertaining would be you making some progress towards forming complete sentences.
Here's how your post should have looked if you wanted to talk trash:

While I'm on the subject of trash talk, yours isn't particularly effective. It focuses on pointing out to everyone else that I might not behave in a manner which you imply that I, and implicitly everyone else you want to agree with you, should. If your opinion of what I should be doing meant anything to me then you might have a point. However I couldn't care less how many training programs or diet regimens you might have gleaned from bodybuilding.com while I was watching anime. I enjoy doing what I do and I hope you were enjoying doing what you were doing.
@masa: my point was to ridicule ody's post, not to explain why Bebop sux. There aren't any Bebop threads around, so if I used this thread to explain further why it sux, you'd use it as an excuse to warn me for going off topic.
Bodybuilding.com's basic regimen for success is:
1. take steroid
2. take 2nd type of steroid
3. take 3rd type of steroid so you don't die from the first two types
So congrats on frequenting that site, ody.
Stands to reason that fight sequences are copied. Saves time and money. Plus when I see a cool fight sequence, I always ask myself, how would that look if it was this guy vs this guy instead.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
I don't see anything really spectacular happening during that clip, so it's hard to believe they would have copied it to save their own efforts. The people directing and drawing Naruto at that point surely weren't any noobs that couldn't have designed a generic fist fight of their own. In that sense a tribute sounds far more likely to me. Plus what Animeniax said about what a certain fight would look like with different characters. The director and drawers are also human, after all.
Many people just tend to initially think negatively of everything, and go: "Damn, they are bloody copying Bebop. Outrageous!" instead of: "Hmm... I think I recognized that sequence... Oh, yes, they must have purposefully made it similar to Bebop. Funny."
Well, negative feelings feed some people better than positive, so in that sense nobody's right and everybody's right when watching anime (or any other art).
Huh, how bizarre. I was actually using bodybuilding.com's forums last night. It's actually a really good site since everyone there has different methods of exercising, so there's a lot of good input, especially about proper Nutrition.
Small world, I guess. Or...small internet...whatever.
On topic: That thing is as old as the internet. No need to jump on ody though, just 'cause he's never seen it before.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
Please avoid going completely off-topic like this in the future.

Hahahahahahahaha...
...bodybuilding.
That's good stuff.
When I first saw Neji using his fists like that I thought it was weird because it didn't have his usual Jyuuken finesse.
