Spike and Neji just happened to use the same martial arts moves in those scenes. I doubt it's more extensive than that.

but i think they copy cause both r from top view to side view.

Um...why does this matter, actually? (And why is this in the Manga section...??)

Just because they look the same doesn't mean that they're copying each other intentionally. So the angles and moves are identical. No offense, but that doesn't really mean anything.

Spike uses martial arts in the way of Bruce Lee, which is his model of fighting style. And Neji does it because shinobis have to learn physical fighting abilities in different forms, and not just use charaka techniques.

Thats prity cool and it's good to see anime that stays true to tradioal fighting styles

I don't see how Naruto and Cowboy Beebop are related too each other. Mainly since it's been awhile since i've watched the second one and i'm busy watching the first. how in the world neji and spike's fighting style are similar is beyond me but... when the two truly came out is anyone's guess
