I enjoyed the first one more.......2007-03-23
Some say this is better than the first season. To me thats not true. This season is full of humor, action, and good stories. It starts out introducing a couple of new likeable characters. The thing about Slayers that I like the most is that it actually succeeds at being funny. The character development gets alot better. I just felt the main villians couldn't fill the shoes of Copy Rezo. The stories are good but they kind of missed the mark somewhere in the middle on the second disk. The stories started to pick up with a very deep plot on the last disk when the Demon King Gaav and Hellmaster was introduced. I almost want to give this a 5 but I just didn't enjoy it the sameway. Still this season is very good and Slayers is quickly becoming one of my favorites. The dvd collection I purchased is 3 dvd's with extras. And I got it a hell of a lot cheaper than what these price gougers are offering. But hey, its Slayers. You really can't go wrong with this series.
BEST SLAYERS YET!.......2005-12-29
The Slayers Next is BY FAR the best of the entire series!It has More laughs then the first season...not that i don't like the first season...This DVD boxset has better special features, like an interveiw with the english voice actors (except Gourry) The Slayers Next has more of an interesting plot...in my opinion, you don't have to see the first season in order to understand this season, it might help though, they don't re-develop the charactors! DO NOT WATCH THE SLAYERS TRY WITHOUT WATCHING THIS SERIES, just a bit of info. Half (or more...lol) of the series leaves from the HUGE MAIN PLOT, and has a little plot of their own...like Brass Rackets, or the one where they are looking for a legendary spell. Some have a plot that takes two to four episodes to complete, like the one in the begining, or the Prince Phil one etc... So, this is the best out of the entire Slayers Seasons in my opinion. The Slayers Try is a little dissapointing, so if you want to leave of on this series, you should although, there are a lot of laughs in it.
Slayers Next........2005-09-07
This series never ceases to make me laugh. It is one of those ones I buy the box set of randomly when I see it at a good price (hey, they used to go for almost $100+).. and I always wondered why I didn't buy it sooner.
Very good for a laugh.. and I love this series.
Two Words....Giga Slave.......2005-06-19
I have to admit that this is probably one of the better series in the Slayers Trilogy. Rejoin Lina, Gourry, Amelia and good Ol' Zelgadis in another adventure of twists and turns. What makes this story so unique is you have a 'god' like character a.k.a. Xellos who constantly gets under Lina's (and our) nerves. Also a rival by the name of Martina who through the entire series tries to get the best of our Firery Red Haired Sorceress. Episode after Episode they mock Both Zelgadis and Lina to further enduce plot, even some old characters make a cameo in the series. The only thing I found a bit of a disappointment was how it ended. You keep a steady pace of comedy and realism, then it just becomes realism with small splashes of comedy. However the ending is what cleans it up real nice. Two more words....Brass Raquets.
The Greatest of Slayers.......2005-01-20
Let me start off by saying that Slayers is truely a work of pure gold. When I began watching the second season I was instantely absorbed in it. With the constant comments being directed to our leading lady Lina Inverse and her brainless body gaurd Goury Gabriev, Slayers is a anime that truely captivates a brilliant mixture of action, comedey and romance and molds these genras into a amazeing work of art. If you have seen the first season or you want to see just a bit of what the slayers anime series is, then I highly suggest Slayers Next. The series is much more fluid and crisp then the first season, but don't get me wrong, the first season was awesome to its just that the second season was better.
All and all the slayer series is just a fun anime that any person can enoy if there into magic, sorcery, and a whole lot of slapstick comdedy that will have you sprawling on the floor gasping for breathe.
