Alright, livejournal, help me out here

I have a fuzzy image in my head that needs clearing. I think it's from an anime.

Two heroes are running from a flood of something – water, goop, slime, Mononoke-tentacles – down a hallway. They round a corner, and the shot focuses for an instant on the empty hall. The first comes pounding around the turn at a sharp angle, and the second just slides straight into the wall - bam! - as a momentum-stopper a bare second before pelting after the first. The flood is inches behind them.

What series is this from? Which characters? What were they doing!? It can't have been Mononoke, they weren't in a hallway there. And it was so quick, such a fingersnap-sequence that effectively characterised the second runner's way of doing things that I remarked on it at the time and remembered it afterwards. To the exclusion, apparently, of all else.



**EDIT: NEVER MIND, I got it, about ten seconds after I posted with this icon. I was having trouble because I was sifting through the anime records when it was, in fact, a scene from Batman: SubZero in which Batman & Robin are fleeing Freeze's ice gun on the oil rig. wtg, me.

Also sort of reminded me of that scene in Spirited Away where Sen/Chihiro is fleeing from the vomiting Noh-Face.

I also thought of exactly this.

You just witnessed me winning the internet. Except that I didn't save the follow-up page to this comic, so my win has expired and I must return my prize. :(
