âď¸ When anime worlds refuse to stay separate
Anime Battle 1.7 feels like someone grabbed a stack of shonen DVDs, shook them hard and let all the characters fall into the same arena. One second you are dashing in with Naruto level energy, the next you are staring down a Soul Reaper from Bleach or a wandering swordsman from Rurouni Kenshin, and now Shana jumps in wielding a blazing sword like she owns the place
The game doesnât waste time on long speeches. A menu, a roster, a few button presses and suddenly youâre standing on a 2D stage with health bars at the top and your opponent way too close for comfort. The music kicks, the announcer gives you that tiny push of hype and then itâs just you, your character and the terrifying knowledge that your fingers may or may not remember the combo you swore you had mastered five minutes ago.
đĽ Shanaâs blade, ninja clones and old samurai scars
The roster in Anime Battle 1.7 is basically fan service with hitboxes. Shana comes in hot with her deadly sword, swinging fiery arcs that make zoning her a very bad idea. Sheâs the new kid in class and she knows it; half her kit looks like it was designed to say âback offâ in glowing red letters. Meanwhile Naruto brings his usual chaos, with shadow clones, lunging rush attacks and that familiar âif I get in, youâre going to feel itâ pressure. Characters from Bleach love making the screen flash with long-reaching slashes and spiritual power, while Kenshin-style swordplay feels sharp, precise and just a little bit smug when you land a clean punish.
Every fighter has that small twist that changes how you see neutral. Some rush in with fast dashes and short-range strings that force close combat. Others control space with big normals or special moves that wall off half the stage. Youâll have matches where you spend most of your time respecting a single button because you know if you jump at the wrong moment, that move is going to swat you out of the air like an annoying fly.
đšď¸ Buttons, mashing and the moment it âclicksâ
At first, Anime Battle 1.7 is pure button-mash therapy. You hammer attack keys, you accidentally trigger specials, your character launches into the air when you werenât mentally ready and you just ride it out, hoping it looks intentional. And honestly, it kind of works. This is one of those fighters where mashing can accidentally produce something that looks like a highlight clip, especially if both players are equally clueless and equally loud about it.
But hidden under that chaos thereâs structure. Light, medium, heavy. Jumps that can be turned into air strings. Specials that cancel out of certain normals, supers that explode across the screen if youâve built the meter. Itâs classic crossover fighter logic: you can play sloppy and still have fun, but the game starts to really shine when you slow down for half a second and notice that âoh, that move actually links into that move every time if I just delay a littleâ.
Suddenly, instead of random luck, youâre doing intentional corner pressure. You dash in, poke low, frame trap with a quick follow-up, cancel into a special and finish with a flashy super if your bar is glowing. The first time you pull that off on purpose, not by accident, your brain does a little victory lap. The second time, you start thinking âokay, maybe Iâm actually dangerous nowâ.
đ Solo grind, versus salt and 2P legends
Anime Battle 1.7 is built for both lonely training nights and loud 2-player sessions at the same keyboard. Solo, you can dive into arcade-style fights, climbing through opponents while learning what each character can do. Itâs the safe zone where you can drop combos in peace, restart rounds without anyone snickering and test weird stuff like âwhat if I just spam this one move and see who it actually beatsâ.
But the game truly comes alive when thereâs another human sitting right next to you. Two-player mode turns the living room, computer lab or wherever into a tiny anime tournament. Suddenly, that one cheap move isnât just funny, itâs personal. You start banning characters âfor one round onlyâ and then breaking that rule the second youâre losing. You invent house memes about who is allowed to pick Naruto, whoâs cursed with the random select button, who always panics and blows their super into a block.
Rematches happen on autopilot. âFirst to threeâ becomes âokay, best of fiveâ then âfine, last one,â which obviously isnât the last one. The more you play, the more each player develops a âmain,â and the more epic it feels whenever someone manages to beat that main with a weird pocket pick they barely understand.
đ¨ Stages, effects and that anime opening energy
Visually, Anime Battle 1.7 leans into everything you expect from a crossover fighter. Colorful stages, dramatic sky gradients, backgrounds that feel like places youâve seen in late-night anime marathons. Attacks leave bright trails, supers blow up half the screen, and every big hit lands with enough flair to make you feel like you just skipped straight to episode 24 of a season.
The pacing has that anime opening energy too. Fights rarely feel slow. Even defensive rounds have those sudden spikes of intensity when someone finally finds a gap and the health bar disappears faster than you thought possible. You will see rounds that end in ten seconds when an aggressive player steamrolls a nervous one. You will also see matches where both of you are at a sliver of health, trading desperate pokes, both meters full, both supers whiffing dramatically until one stray jab finally closes it out.
Those nail-biter finishes are the ones you remember. You sit back, laugh, accuse the game of cheating, immediately hit ârestartâ and secretly hope the next fight is just as close.
đ§ Tiny bits of strategy inside all the noise
Under the explosions and shouting, thereâs real decision-making to chew on. When do you spend meter. Is it worth cashing out early for a sure super or should you save for a comeback later. Do you zone with projectiles and long-range pokes, or do you commit to rushdown and never let the other player breathe.
Some characters reward patience, waiting for whiffs and punishing mistakes with big counter hits. Others reward pure ignorance of personal safety: rush, reset, mix, repeat. You will have matches where the smartest thing you do is simply block and let the opponent burn their options. Youâll have others where the best defense is to go feral and hope your offense scares them into making the first mistake.
The beauty is that Anime Battle 1.7 happily supports both styles. Whether youâre a lab monster carefully learning routes or a casual player just trying to recreate your favorite anime moments in button form, the game gives you enough tools to express that. On Kiz10 it also means easy access: open it, pick a fighter, and five seconds later youâve got an entire crossover universe condensed into one screaming match on screen.
