I want to answer your replies one by one, but you will see them all listed one after the other and what we are talking about will get mixed up. so I'll use the beginning of your sentences to understand which comment I am answering. Deal?? XD

Both duels are very good in terms of emotions to be given and acting to be expressed. HD painted very well what he had to do there. The wild bloody smile you said really was giving a strong feeling he was going to bring Sheer to the ground instantly, but he knocked him down in a different way.. with.. a little bit of luck, a little bit of talent XD and Sun for some reason didn't seem very worried to me, maybe because I was expecting a slightly more specific expression or he was sure that he wouldn't die and didn't react much. Anyway it's rare to see him worried for someone other than Chang ge :)

and @TLBJunkie.. Exactlyyy!! I wish there was a fight scene with only AS's kicks... even if he knocked down dozens of people with the same move I wouldn't be bored XD

I'm glad that.. and about your last sentence.. I haven't had the opportunity to watch that much for these few days. I also don't want to watch it at random times. And I'm trying to be a little thrifty so it won't end right away X)

You noticed the power of the grassland boys kicks right? I remember.. was mentioned about AS's kicks here. The scene where he kicked the woman (Lady Shinse I guess) to the hundred meters away while rescuing CG X), the scene where he was fighting with the men when following Sheer for his mother dead and kicked the men, the scene where he grabbed the tree and turned and kicked a man... I'm sure there are a few more out there. . And Sheer ... His kicks that fly the crown prince's man out of the stage and then fly HD almost out of the stage... These two's kicks.. The pole, straight, strong enough to swing the opponent tens of meters... I guess this is the grassland genre kick. Let's call it the 'grassland-style extra-effective straight kick move' XDD

One more point...

Not a duel scene, but now there is one more scene I hope to see from this angle, I haven't seen it yet. I think it belongs to the operation to rescue AS. In the clip shown on those giant screens .. AS (in black outfit) and CG are running side by side, they take down the enemies, they split and open up on both sides and knock down the man between them, then AS grabs a sword from there (as I understand it) .. Looks like a very active, fast and cool scene. I wonder how it will be.

The whole world should see that spinning sword swing. How nice it would be for everyone to witness his talent and that invincible grassland warrior spirit!! And in this way, I will have the opportunity to watch my second awesome duel scene. How selfish I am X')) If this had happened, the script would have had a crisis, but at that moment I probably wouldn't mind it X)

Even though it is a beautiful fight in its own right, in my eyes, a fight scene that can overcome the fascination of AS's whirling sword swinging movement (and the facial expression that depicts a completely warrior spirit there) will not come easily again. Frankly, although I knew it would never happen, I hoped for a short time that AS would fall off that balcony with CG pushes, find himself in the stage and have to fight. XD

While HD was pinching him there and squeezing his throat, I was worrying that 'you will kill the boy, you won, let go, he will suffocate'. Probably ridiculous, but I was hoping that AS too would show a slight anxiety thinking Sheer was going to drown and die (like Sheer's mother), but he didn't even care. XD Though I guess his death wasn't an option here, but it cross my mind. As a result, the development of events and goals make the winner fair. I don't know if this was a compulsion, but this picture seems reasonable to me.

Later, HD .. Just like how Shuyu's face took his mood down, Leyan's face reminds him of what he's fighting for again, and so he gets back on his feet with that another 500 ml of energy drink. But they still do not ignore the physical conditions and at that moment he does not suddenly win the fight. About to fly by Sheer kick he grabs the pole and turns back like a boomerang (This scene was really nice) (So despite all that high spirit, if that pole wasn't there, he was doomed to be defeated and to fly out of the stage). And this time Sheer is distracted and being overthrown with his heedlessness and HD's unexpected fast move.

Things that happen during the fight are a little different. HD is equally distracted by Shuyu as he collides with Sheer with this top-notch urge to win (Here to Shuyu 'you didn't show your face on this stage when you had to come, you didn't help anyone ... why you had to show your face right now ... you're really not support but obstacle' X'D) It is not strange that he is about to be beaten with distraction here. As Sheer punches him and leaves him covered in blood, I don't enjoy watching such moments. I was like 'stop now' but he also kept punching to make sure he was beaten, and perhaps to show the upper hand.

The only thing that could trigger Sheer there is that he can't afford to lose in front of AS. He wants to prove his strength in front of his arch-rival. However, this reason cannot defeat a struggle for the life of a loved one. (I say that because they see Leyan's marriage to the grassland as a kind of ruin of her life). So, all situation kind of like.. when Sheer wouldn't want to get dust on him HD was going to put his soul on and fight.
Also, Sheer is sure to beat his opponent. Those who despise their opponent always face defeat. HD knows it will probably be a tough fight. These are the starting reasons.

If there is one thing I learned from all the action series and anime I watched (and in real historical events also), it is; The reason why a fighter fights is an influential factor that can cause you to put aside all other material factors in determining the winner. If there is even a higher level than fighting to save your life, it is fighting for the life of your loved one or for the cause you believe in. (We take the first one here.) This reason is like the fighter's energy drink ... You reach the top of your skills with that drink and defeat a much more experienced and stronger opponent. For Sheer, this fight is a political affair. He has no desire to grab the girl, it's just a job to be done. It's kind of like a sense of duty.

Also power. Ashile tribe, so Sheer is physically stronger and tougher. (In his duel with AS, Sheer can block the swords he whirls while spinning, and he can keep up with AS in that hard and fast battle.) You don't want to eat their fist. Until this episode, we know that HD is agile, quick and has a good sword skill, but considering these reasons, it seems like a fight Sheer will win in terms of material terms. But here they did not ignore aspects that would make HD's win realistic. -And so we, the audience will not make condescending comments on the type "Ah .. the script is here .. of course HD had to win!".-

But there is one point about this scane that I think they balance well. Normally, when I consider the general conditions, my conclusion is that Sheer is more likely to win because of his strength and experience. Sheer is a grassland prince/general. He is the child of a warrior society born into wars. And his rival, AS, with whom he has been fighting ever since he was little. He was in endless competition with a war machine like AS. He may be overshadowed by him when he is side by side with him, but if you take AS from his side, he is one of the best after him. HD is an imperial guard. The combat experience of a soldier / guard is not the same with the experience of a general (and one who grew up in the conditions I mentioned), even if he has participated in wars before.

Finally, after that moment when Sheer counts down from three and that three seconds feels like eternity, HD shows his rose face and stands in front of him ... (If you haven't come a little more... until you arrived we were almost having your girl's wedding and putting her in her tent in the grassland XD) It was little difficult to find the impressiveness of the first one, as the duel that started after all this wait and turmoil proceeded in a simpler style compared to the first one.

Also, some additional situations have an effect. The scene dragged a lot. The moment of duel did not come easily. Since I was waiting for that moment, I was watching the previous developments in the mode of 'come on now, let's get to the point' and it never ended. Since I did not predict that HD will come later that long, while waiting for him, another chieftain appears.. when I was saying 'let it be, we will manage with this, let it fight begin', and he doubled up in front of Sheer, promising loyalty. Then we are waiting and waiting again... The second man that the crown prince has arranged is coming. When I like 'Okay, let's see something', he flies off the stage with a single kick. We are waiting empty handed again. Now is the time for HD to come out, but he never comes. Fortunately, there are a mixture of funny and tense scenes where they forces AS (it was something else XD). It is said 'Shuyu will come', but he just doesn't show us that his third wheel face. When he comes, Leyan is talking and talking to him. (Not because I'm bored around here, I'm just digging through the possible reasons for losing the excitement to the duel scene X))

And I think another key point for the reason I enjoy this duel so much is that I still hated Sheer during the first duel. I was totally a supporter of AS. Sheer was our arch-rival, and I wouldn't mind if he got to crush him and I would rejoice, 'oh, it's good for you', which is how it happened. X) But in the second, I didn't want both warriors to be defeated or crushed, as Sheer was also promoted to the status of 'my precious things'. XD So I couldn't cheer to one side as much as the first one (of course I was hoping HD would win in terms of the script, but it's a bit like AS didn't want to lose to Shuyu when it should. I know HD should win but I don't want to see Sheer crushed either X')) The mother mode who couldn't bear the loss of her two children was active.

It is understandable that the fighting of the two grassland boys is on a separate level. Between AS and SH, swords collide quickly with harsh and grandiose moves. It's beautiful, and just when AS slips SH's sword out and you think 'oh, it was great, wish it lasted longer' a new secret weapon appears, the excitement continues to flow, you rejoice, 'oh, there is still a little more' and again while you was sad again that it was just over another secret weapon appears... These unexpected original advances in acting and combat lock you in your seat again and again. I couldn't be more glad that Sheer was the trickster type there, because if he was too honorable, this magnificent thing would have been shorter. :) (Though while watching, you don't know how angry I got when he stabbed that secret dagger into AS .. I was saying in my mind 'You traitor.. play fair!!' and when the chain appears.. 'Seriously.. enough!!.. you can't played so dirty .. you are a complete traitor!'.. All in all it was a nice show X))
