| 1 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oV2zSjWivQ8 The wizards duel]]. It may have had no special effects save one involving the steam, and only lasted for a few moments but ''damn'' in those few moments. Akiro was a true ''badass'' wizard. |
| 2 | ** If you watch closely, you can see how much effort the wizards exert in the duel; smoke comes out of The Leader's nose at one point, and at the end, it looks like steam is coming off of the victorious - and visibly exhausted - Akiro. Hardly any visual effects in that scene, but it's the acting of Ferdy Mayne and Mako that make it work. |
| 3 | ** The scene is a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome for the ''characters'', but also for the ''actors'', who clearly depict exactly what the wizards were doing - without need of any running commentary for the fight.[[note]] Akiro first uses his magic to counter the Leader's spell to open the door, and so tricks the Leader into using all his power to force open it, then switches from struggling for the door to attacking ''him'' directly, smoking his brains off. [[/note]] |
| 4 | ** Bonus points to the designers of the Leader's costume, for those amazing metal bracers, and to the sound engineer who produced the ringing tones when he clangs them together. |
| 5 | * The party coming across Zula chained and tormented by a mob of men. Jehnna is outraged by the unfairness - "There are six of them against her!" - so Conan rides into the fray and, after sharing a silent glare with Zula, breaks Zula's chains with his sword. Smiling back [[SlasherSmile with glee]] Zula promptly beats up the men single-handed and then [[IOweYouMyLife rides off to join the team]]. |
| 6 | ** It also expresses Conan's philosophy. He'll make it fair by not engaging with the men, but just unshackling Zula and just removing the unfairness of six people toying with someone who can't fight back. |
| 7 | * Conan's cunning and crafty defeat of the Guardian, the wizard Thoth-Amon, along with SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic was pretty damn epic. |
| 8 | * Conan's final fight with Bombaata was pretty impressive. |
