How ‘bout a new video series? Back with #Animetion I looked at some of my favorite well-animated scenes in #anime but specifically prioritized that animation over story content.
Now, I want to do the opposite. With this new series, Best Moments in Anime (#BestMomentsInAnime), the focus is on story moments with animation quality a secondary consideration.
These will all be spoilers almost by definition, so each will have a spoiler warning with the name of the show being discussed.

It's quite a nerve-wracking thing to start something so big, and to attempt to pick up a mantle that has, sadly, collected dust for too long. I've run a number of smaller contests and ongoing topics all meant to bring yet another source of fun to anime-lovers’ feeds:
#InterchangeableAnime
#Animetion
#MissingLogo
#FavoriteAnimeMoment
#RandomAnimeHopefully this will be just as successful! I've got topics lined up into the new year. I've got plans for... 1/2

While Frieren: Beyond Journey's End has a bunch of cool magic animation, Ubel fighting her clone is one of the standouts in character animation.
The first person perspective thrusts, kicks, and blocks are very impressive. The wide shots are neat too, as both Ubel and her clone are trying to hit each other with their invisible, super powerful Reelseiden slashing spell as they fight. You can see the spells clashing and tearing up the walls in addition to the physical action!

Akebi's Sailor Uniform is a modern classic and has some of the best #Animetion I've seen in #anime.
The big draw of this sequence is Komichi Akebi tying her hair up. The movement and flow is just perfect in the way it gives her hair volume. But that's not all there is:
Look at the end of her run cycle in the close up shot. Her final expression changes when she sees the jump coming up.
And I love the subtle detail that makes her cheek feel soft as she removes the stray hair from her mouth!

Not all great #Animetion need be character based. Take a look at this collection of possibly magical, likely metaphorical machinery that goes into creating the uniforms for Karen Aijo and the other top stars at Seisho Music Academy.
It was those spotlights at the end that first had me sit up and take notice of the Revue Starlight #anime, but further views highlighted this fantastically detailed production line pumping out swords, shoes, buttons, and more for the up and coming stage girls.

In the world of #anime there are few works that love the art of flying as much as 1994's Macross Plus. The delightful reckless joy expressed by Isamu Dyson as he takes the prototype YF-19 into the sky for the first time is so much fun.
I've always loved that shot as he reaches the edge of space and the camera catches up to his plane. Or the changes in the vectored thrust as he goes for a spin. And this entire OVA/Movie is filled with spectacular #Animetion of flying and advanced air combat.
