Just making this thread to offset the rank stench of DBZ-age on the first page with a GOOD anime.

I always see MAF and Himuro talk about this anime. I've never seen it. How many episodes are there? I got some space free on my HD.

But we aren't even talking about DBZ in that thread

Lots. Check wikipedia. There's multiple series: Slayers, Slayers Next, Slayers Try.

There's between 20-25 episodes for the original (I think), 26 for slayers Next, 28 for Slayers Try (don't bother downloading this one, though).
It's a really enjoyable anime that has a nice mix of adventure and comedy. I think you might like it.

SILENCE!

why does that little girl with the purple have bigger tits than lina
why won't gourry just hit that already
-
Okay. I just started downloading Slayers.

Slayers the TV series are awesome, the OVAs are only kind of awesome..too much Naga :(
Im just a sucker for dumb fun adventure
Also iirc Amelia is related to Naga so that answers Himu's question.
-
are you still keeping up with one piece dude
-
No, I have too much going on, One Piece is like getting married
-
Try is awesome and only 26 eps, like Next. Try had the best production values and was honestly a good way to end the series.

I dunno. Best production values? Yeah, possibly. But it just seemed too full of filler eps for my tastes.

Oblivion: Next had more filler, people dont like TRY because its the first of the Slayers series with a season long arc. I happen to like TRY even if Filia took too long to come to grips with shit.
I think the first series was probably the most charming, with Next having the best Filler, and Try had the best ACTUAL story, but also had some amusing eps and better art.
The OVAs arent bad but the nod to fan service gets on my nerves. Still it seems like half the OVA eps take jabs at fanservice by making characters like Naga seem so absurd and playing off the contrast between Lina and herself. Jeffry's Knighthood was probably the best OVA.

I liked the one guy whith purple hair and a staff (who was maybe a demon? I forget, I haven't watched the series in years). You could never really tell whose side he was on.
-
Yeah you mean Xellos. Yeah he's awesome.

You think Next had more filler? I probably need to check it out. I seem to recall missing a ton of eps, lol.
I agree about the OVAs. They're fun to watch, and fairly funny, but the series are totally superior.

It definately did, TRY had the season long arc.
