(Four episodes watched): The first thing to strike me about Slayers Revolution was how uncannily similar it was to the previous three series of a decade ago. It's as if not just Megumi Hayashibara but the entire staff was reassembled for this sequel series. That's not entirely a good thing, since Slayers isn't one of my top ten favorite sub-genres, but the second half of episode four cracked me up. Despite my early doubts, I must definitely watch this.

Lina is BACK!! Having watched three episodes, I am reminded why I was originally so charmed by anime: extreme characters, absurdist comedy, exaggerated violence – all mixed together with a fun story. I am amazed to remember that there is NO fanservice or ecchi content in any of the Lina stories and it is not needed if a series is well written and entertaining. This ‘season’ goes to back to it’s roots, with a level of comedy and humor that could only be found in the original Slayers. So, expect a lot of crazy slapstick comedy, explosions, demolition action and serial mayhem. The main characters of this story are:

Through 12 episodes... Oh yeah! This is a return of the good stuff, as seen in Slayers and not Slayers Try. Another plus is that the series is using the original incidental music, which really does help define the show and add to the ambiance. Episode 2 shows no sign of letdown as the fun continues and some minor plot work is laid. Episode 3 seems like filler as Lina is charged with being a pet abductor. ^_^ For episode 4, be very quiet. Lina is hunting Digimon (Pokota). Xellos returns in episode 5 as the plot begins to move forward. Tedious filler is in store for episode 6 For episode 7, Lina and company encounter Zuuma on board a cruise ship. Xellos and Wiser team up to stop Lina and company in episode 8. In episode 9, Lina's group begins confronting Cionconda's group. For episode 10, Zanaffar is born. In episode 11, Lina and company are in pursuit of Zanaffar, who is destroying whole cities.Last updated Saturday, September 27 2008. Created Saturday, July 05 2008. | ||||||||
