Sorry to break up the party, but I have to pick the Bride here. V is awesome, but as far as fighting goes, we never see him stand and fight except against small handfuls of cops. Not that that's a criticism, one doesn't wage a one-man guerilla war against a police state by fighting man to mob. But still...

We know V to be mildly superhuman in terms of reaction time, pain threshold, and twitch strength. He can beat the hell out of multiple people with military training with little effort, bring knives to a gun-fight and win, and so on but never in the tales do we see him face even a single foe in the same class as one of the Deadly Vipers.

The Bride is also mildly superhuman in much the same way as V, thanks to Pai-Mei's cinema-kung-fu training. She can wire-leap, run on rails, punch with no leverage, cleave through swords, dodge multiple attacks from all directions, and lets not forget the Death Touch.

Beyond that, we see her stand up to an massacre whole mobs of goons, as well as taking solo duels with the other Deadly Vipers, and even Bill himself. While she lacks V's style and grace, she actually has a more impressive track record WRT combat feats.

We can't be certain, of course, but based on their battle feats I'd back the Bride.

Kido (the Bride) is in trouble. Yes, she is good- very good. But V is better. The Bride's edge in the movies was her need for vengeance; it's what drove her. But she lost that drive once she finally "killed Bill". She's just a mom now (well, a mom who can Kung-Fu you ass all over the place, but she's not what she once was). V, on the other hand can never really get his vengeance, hence, his drive, his rage, is unabated. Plus, he IS slightly superhuman.


The virtuous voting of the valorous vanguard of right thinking people makes clear- that the only view of victory visible to any valient visionary is...

V
