A smooth, friendly and romantic anime may be fun to watch. But an anime without fight scenes can’t keep the audience engaged on the screen. Action scenes in the anime create a thrilling experience and excitement of watching anime. Friends discuss fight scenes; some even re-watch the action sequences in the anime to get the thrill back.

What’s the difference between a real movie action scene and an anime series action scene? The addition of supernatural elements and exaggerated aspects in an anime is able to deliver an impact that not even a real movie can match.

The creation of supernatural scenes in a real movie gives off the feel of being artificial, while the same supernatural powers in an anime feel artistic and natural.

This is a major difference between a real action movie and an action anime series. The fights feel realistic even though they are nowhere near real-life experiences.
