Transcript
00:00 Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the scenes across anime
00:17 that stunned, shocked, and in a few cases, broke us.
00:29 The world is remade.
00:31 JoJo's bizarre adventure, Stone Ocean.
00:35 JoJo villains are well known for going big and going hard on their master plans, but
00:40 they all pale in comparison to what Pucci accomplished.
00:43 After his stand evolves twice, it becomes the entity known as "Made in Heaven".
01:04 While initially appearing to just increase Pucci's speed exponentially, its true purpose
01:09 is revealed to be accelerating time itself.
01:12 To the extent where it causes the heat death of the universe, and rewrites all of reality.
01:25 While his grand design is still ultimately stumped, there's no undoing a cosmic reset,
01:31 and in doing so completely rewrites the lives of the beloved cast.
01:48 Despite her willingness to go against her newfound demonic nature, Nezuko was nonetheless
01:53 still susceptible to the weakness that came from being one of Muzan's thralls, including
01:58 aversion to sunlight.
02:00 Unable to hide from the dawn's rays, Nezuko makes Tanjiro's impossible decision for
02:05 him, letting herself burn so he can save innocent lives before they're snuffed out by the
02:14 upper fourth demon moon.
02:17 You'd think that would be the end of it, but then it's revealed that not only has
02:23 Nezuko survived, but is now immune to the sun, and can talk.
02:30 The emotional whiplash hit us hard here.
02:38 You could technically consider this coming out of left field.
02:41 You might even make the argument that it diminishes his initial sacrifice, but we'll be damned
02:46 if seeing the original hero make a grand return didn't have a colossal impact.
02:57 Just as Pop and company are said to be incinerated by Kelvin's ultimate trap card, they're
03:03 saved at the last second by a new challenger brandishing golden feathers, one belonging
03:12 to none other than their thought-dead teacher, Avon.
03:31 Apparently not even a magical nuke is enough to keep this guy down for long.
03:35 7.
03:36 The Rumbling – Attack on Titan
03:39 Just when we thought we had put a cap on Eren's desire for revenge, on account of his willingness
03:43 to cross all lines for those he cared about, he pulls off a 5D chess manoeuvre like this.
03:52 Pulling the rug from out of enemies and allies alike, Eren seizes the moment to activate
03:58 The Rumbling, and unleashes millions of colossal titans upon the world, while also shifting
04:03 himself into a beast crazy in scope and scale.
04:14 His master plan?
04:16 Flatten the world outside of the walls, to ensure peace for all inside Paradise Island.
04:24 Yep, Eren went all in on the genocide route.
04:37 6.
04:41 Gojo Unleashed – Jujutsu Kaisen
04:45 Never put this man in a corner, otherwise you'll see why he's the strongest of sorcerers.
04:50 Placed into an impossible situation, with hundreds of imprisoned humans on one side,
04:55 and a horde of monsters on the other, all in a confined space, it appears for a moment
05:00 that Getto and Mahito's master plan to break Gojo is about to go off without a hitch.
05:06 That is, until Gojo pulls off the ultimate of Uno reverse cards.
05:15 Activating his domain expansion for a split second, everyone in the immediate vicinity
05:20 is stunned into a stupor, giving Gojo a small window to run wild and start taking heads.
05:27 And take heads he does, slaughtering a thousand curses with his bare hands in five minutes.
05:36 5.
05:38 I Have No Enemies – Vinland Saga
05:41 The character growth that Torfinn went through over the course of the Farm Arc is nothing
05:45 short of godly.
05:52 Replacing his daggers with words, the Viking's new pacifistic look on life was well and truly
05:57 tested when he tried to get an audience with King Gnuts, where he was challenged to endure
06:02 a hundred punches.
06:16 While this would kill lesser men, Torfinn endures, doubling down on his newfound values
06:21 that no man has any enemies.
06:32 This realisation is incredible on so many levels, but none more than knowing Torfinn
06:37 has, at long last, truly become his father's son.
06:45 4.
06:47 Eyes Murder – Oshinoko
06:49 Can't have a murder mystery without a murderer, and unfortunately for us, the victim here
06:54 was the beloved idol who had only just started to discover what it meant to love a person.
07:03 Attacked by a deranged stalker, Eye is fatally stabbed in her own home.
07:13 All she can do is express her regret and gratitude to her children, before succumbing to blood
07:18 loss with one of the most haunting expressions to date.
07:25 It's the tragedy that spurns Aqua and Ruby along their paths for both vengeance and success,
07:31 while all we can do is be left yearning for one more encore.
07:35 3.
07:36 Kenpachi Shikai – Bleach – Thousand Year Blood War
07:40 With raw strength alone, Kenpachi and his sword swings were able to secure himself the
07:45 position of Gotei 13 Captain, enough to devastate basically anyone who stood in his way.
07:57 But for something as dangerous as the invading Quincy army, he required an upgrade.
08:06 Following his deathly training with Unohana, Kenpachi was finally able to tap into his
08:10 impacto and unleash its Shikai, which in turn proved to be so strong that it could even
08:16 cleave a meteor in two.
08:23 2.
08:29 Give Fifth – One Piece – The Hype for Luffy's Latest Transformation Could Not Be
08:35 More Monumental And to say it exceeded all expectations would be doing a disservice.
08:43 Pushed beyond all limits by Kaido, Luffy's true power, that of the human-human fruit
08:48 model sun god, finally made itself known.
09:01 What does it do?
09:02 In short, it turned Luffy into a living Looney Tunes character, one who could break the laws
09:07 of physics and fight fire with whatever his imagination could come up with.
09:14 It's a very different kind of epic, but epic all the same.

09:39 Galaxy-Sized Mecha Battle – Gurren Lagann
09:42 Giant robots will never not be cool, but it's fair to say they may have reached their peak
09:48 here – at least in size.
09:54 After saving Nia from the clutches of the Anti-Spiral, all of Team Dai Gurren join forces
10:00 and robot parts to create the Tengen Tapa Gurren Lagann, a machine so gigantic that
10:06 it can casually walk across whole galaxies.
10:13 We barely even have time to take in how much of a juggernaut this thing is, all before
10:18 the Anti-Spiral transforms into a beast of similar size, leading to the ultimate cosmic
10:24 throwdown.
