    Looking for a specific anime

    So I was talking with my uncle the other day about an anime we can't remember the name of. All I really remember is the opening scene or the ending scene of the episode/s is this guy and girl (I think they were siblings) duking it out. Kind of reminded me of yu yu hakusho with its fighting/art style. They also seemed to have some kind of abilities. if anyone knows anything that sounds like this, do tell. I've been wondering what it was for years. Pretty sure it's old.

    Also, another one I thought id add...only thing I remember is these demon/monster hunters hunting some moon creature. One of the main characters was a female. It also was old-ish and had a inuyasha art style.

    If anyone knows what I'm talking about, I'd love you forevers!!
    Of all losses, time is the most irrecuperable for it can never be redeemed

    Damn not much to go on, but I'll take a stab in the dark with this one. Would "Shadow Skill" be it? Fits a lot of what you are talking about so maybe that is it.

    I loved this show so much, right up until the rushed ending.

    But I have no clue on what show you're searching for

    Was it this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iria:_Zeiram_the_Animation

    Old as fuck, kind of fits most of your criteria. More sci-fi than what you described, but it aired on Cartoon Network a long time ago.

    Well Kyanion found the siblings one I was talking about, as for the moon beast/demon one. All I remember is that they had these scythes/circular blades ala Warcraft wardens. And their captain was torn apart by the thing. The beast kind of looked like a giant werewolf too.

    Haha damn I'm good, I've not seen much of that anime, but a friend of mine back in the late 90s had some fan subbed and I saw the first episode or two, He stuck with it but I didn't. Just the clues you gave me made me think of that anime because of how it felt compared to Yu Yu Hakusho. As for the 2nd anime you are thinking of, hmm that one seems a bit trickier, the weapons might give it away to people that have seen it though.

    Honestly, I don't remember. I really liked it as a kid, but I haven't watched it in 10 years or so, so I don't know how well it holds up.
