Manic Webb Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 You're looking at a newly converted "Slayers" fan! I've been watching it weekly on the International Channel for a few months and it's great. I like how Lina Inverse is an incredibly powerful warrior/sorceress, but acts like a total goofyball. Zelgadis and Gourry are kool and Amelia... um... she's Amelia. What do you all think about the series? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Def_Kun Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 One of my top 5 favorite anime series of all time. It has probably everything that I love about anime - great storyline, well developed characters, nice animation, loads of humor. It's just perfect.

Darkmoon Posted July 21, 2002 Share Posted July 21, 2002 I love Slayers (one of my all time favorites) but have never seen a single episode of it. Well, one of the movies but that dosen't count as a epp. Your probably woundering how it is that I love this anime when I have never seen it, right? Well I found a web site with complete scripts on every epp up until Slayers Try. *sigh* I wish that I could see it though. It's not the same reading a script.

Guest wolfwood Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 whats slayers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensei-San Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 Personally, my favourite character is Lina, she reminds me of Vegita from DBZ/GT, since she is so arrogant, well that is in my opinion. Lina Inverse has two primary motivations in her young life. The first is getting enough to eat (she never does), lol. The second is getting rich, preferably by robbing bandits, evil sorcerers, and other villains. There is of course no question of giving any of this rotten loot to "the poor". If there's anything Lina isn't, it's Robin Hood. Slayers is by far a great show, it has a mixed genre of comic relief and action. It is not like the common anime of today.

Subversive Posted July 24, 2002 Share Posted July 24, 2002 Zelgaudes or howeva the hell you spell it is awsome!!! Hes so cool, hes an awsome swordsman and spell caster!!! :naughty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePikasElbow Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 I have the first season of Slayers and I like it. It's pretty funny and it has some great fantasy elements in it. Swordsman, soceresses, evil priests etc. The whole atmosphere is wonderful. It's kinda a old show, so some of the animation isn't that great. It has a lot of cool characters from the bitchy Lina Inverse to the skilled but stupid swordsman Gourry to the crazy champion of justice Amelia. My only complaint is that there are a ton of filler episodes. I heard the other seasons were much better, so when I check them out I will definently be pleased.

Avalon Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 I like it very much! I watch it on the International channel too! Lina is my favorite character because she reminds me of me...stylish, pretty and fiery... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deedlit Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 I LOVE Slayers! ^_^ I've seen a few episodes and read about one manga, and it's already on my "favorite list." Gourry's so funny, Lina's cool, and Zelgadis....gaw, I want to see more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Def_Kun Posted July 28, 2002 Share Posted July 28, 2002 Everybody is funny! Even if the part tends to be serious, they find a way to make it hilarious. The movies and OAVs were also quite excellent even though the rest of the gang wasn't there. I'm just waiting for the latest movie when they all reunite. On a more personal note, my favorite character was Xellos. Cool but cunning, perfect for those demon personalities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amidamaru Posted November 18, 2002 Share Posted November 18, 2002 [COLOR=deeppink]You know, with Lina and Gourry and Zel and the rest of the gang? It's quite good, and has good animation. Not to mention it's really funny [/COLOR] :haha: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manic Webb Posted November 18, 2002 Author Share Posted November 18, 2002 I love Slayers! I watch it every week on the International Channel (I think they're up to Slayers Next). It has everything I like in anime (comedy, sword fights, magic). The only thing it's missing is a giant robot... which it really doesn't need. Amelia is hilarious. I never stop laughing with the way she carries on about fighting for justice. A good justice. A strong justice! Zelgadis is a great straight man/golem/demon. He's constantly serious while everyone else in the cast is completely wacko. One of my favorite episodes is when Lina & co. have a bounty on them and they decide to hide out by joining a little theatre group. Amelia gets picked to play Lina Inverse in their play instead of the real Lina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhys Mayiessen Posted November 18, 2002 Share Posted November 18, 2002 Oh I've heard about the show before and have even looked it up on the internet but I have never seen it since I don't think we have it here in Canada. Oh well it looks like a really good anime though and I wish we did have it here:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amibasuki Posted November 18, 2002 Share Posted November 18, 2002 [FONT=arial]I like what I've seen and read of Slayers. just not dubbed, ANYTHING but dubbed >.<. Gourry and Zelgadis are my favorite characters. and I absolutely love the music. I've even got a wallscroll of the Slayers hanging up in my room, right above my computer :D.

Darkmoon Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 I love Slayers!! It's one of the best anime's I've ever seen... Well, I haven't exsactally seen them yet. I've just read every epp script up until the first epp of slayer's try... then the site closed down... the [i]nerve[/i] of some people... If I had their e-mail I coulda atleast gotten it like that... Anyway's I've lately began downloading them. I've got only a few epps and am gonna see them soon (unfortunatly all dubbed, but then I can't understand it in any other language).

I bet the show is pretty good. Also...I can't find the channel that it's on. Can someone help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galvatron Posted March 23, 2003 Share Posted March 23, 2003 I have been watching it for about two months on the International Channel and at first. I didn't care for it much but I got use to it and I must say it's one damn good anime show even with subtitles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has comedy, action, a plot and all in one show! I personally love It, can't get enough of the stuff. I've been watching it on the Korean International channel. I think... But seriously! You gotta watch it at 8:00 pacific on the International channel on Fridays and Sundays. Its in my opinion, the best anime ever! Well, its in the top five anyways.[/SIZE][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manic Webb Posted March 25, 2003 Author Share Posted March 25, 2003 I've been watching [i]Slayers[/i] on the International Channel since the first episode, which was a long time ago, considering it airs weekly and it's all the way on [i]Slayers Try[/i]. I love the show. It's hilarious. It's like a comedy that has action thrown in there every few seconds, and visa versa. It's flawless, and every character (good and evil) is likeable.

Queen Asuka Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 [color=hotpink][size=1]Maybe it's just me, but I really HATED this show. I thought the character designs were awful and the plot was lame. I don't know...I just never got into it. It's been a while since I've seen it, though.[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
