There was one a few hours ago that turned into a porn dump. Even used the same pic as OP.

There was one last night, but it was not active enough.

I would've made the thread, but I accidentally caused the universe to give a sweet girl a heart attack on the job IRL, so I've been occupied. But I'm here now!

that sounds tragic user

what?!

I joked about how the job was killing me, and ten seconds later a girl collapsed. She had heart surgery last year and this was the first time she'd collapsed like that. When I left there was a nurse with her, her boyfriend was on the way, and the site manager was contacting the paramedics.

Hope the girl is alright.

She'll be fine. She has big boobs so the fall was cushioned, and she's only about five feet tall so it was a short drop.

Blonde ranma gets assaulted, also cute bikini ladies. And I could have sworn I've seen Lina do that posture in a piece of fan art.

Anyone else miss the 90s?

Is this a yuri show?

It can be, if you so desire.

Ok, I've been trying to get into this show for weeks now. I've just finished episode 7, and i have to ask: does it get better?

Umm... Ouch... Okay, so, I want as many people as possible to like Slayers, but the rule of thumb for short anime is that after the third episode, if you're not interested, you should just drop it. If you're seven episodes in... Slayers just isn't for you.

:(

Yes. The second season is the best.

That's thing, it's not exactly short: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slayers#Anime_television_series

Do you need to watch the first season to get what's happening in the rest?

Well, yes and no. While it could be argued that the seasons are disjointed, my point is that if you don't feel gripped by the setting now, there's no point in investing further into something you don't really care about. Episodes 1 through 10 of the first season constitute roughly the first volume, out of fifteen, for the light novels.

Basically my point is, if you don't like The Hobbit, why read the entire Tolkien anthology? If you don't like The Eye of the World, why read the entire Wheel of Time series? If you don't like the very first part of Slayers, why subject yourself to the rest of it?

in the top tier of filler episodes along with the idol singing one

Did you know they made an AMV?
Did you know that after I posted a link to it on Yea Forums it got hit by a copyright strike after thirteen years of being on YouTube?

Cute. Gourry would make for a great Romeo. And Lina would make for great entertainment as Juliet.
I'd love to see an episode/chapter where they are somehow forced to perform this.

This is incomplete, but...

Gotta love the fact that Slayers is still getting referenced frequently in modern anime. That Lina reference in Okaasan Online was a delight.

Slayers has exploded in popularity again, and no one knows why.

About time

We've always had good Slayers porn, the fuck you on about?

That slays me.

L-sama has a twisted sense of humor.

This is good reasoning, but I find that there are a few exceptions. I hated Yuru Yuri for the first three episodes, but then all of a a sudden I started to love it. Every once in a while it's good to finish something you don't like, if only to step outside your comfort zone. And you might end up liking that thing you thought you hated.

Suspension of disbelief can only do so much, user.

Tits are for the birds.
And fat cows.
And... umm... girls with no personality.

How far did Lina ever get with Gourry anyways? It was always teased at and I recall in the one movie where their speech got scrambled she was getting big time flustered over him saying "I love you" repeatedly. Did they ever end up having any actual romantic moments though?

Attached: 1338.png (302x361, 60K)

LNs: Lina thinks Gourry wants her to take him to see her hometown so he can ask her parents for permission to marry her.
Anime: NEXT gave them the spinning kiss scene they forgot about, TRY showed they implicitly trust each other, and filler in Evo-R implied they love each other, even if they haven't admitted it.
Manga: Lina and Gourry care deeply for each other, but Lina is also more feminine (relatively) and Gourry is more chivalrous.
Rui Araizumi: Ships them HARD.
Fans: Still a toss-up between Gourry, Zel, and Xellos, but Zel is meant for Amelia and Xellos literally cannot be a romantic interest by virtue of being a mazoku.

so like 3 weeks ago you recommended slayers to me Yea Forums annnd im trying to watching it in the canon chronological order? Where they recommend watching with the character Naga. But it feels off. Can't put my finger on it... It's like they're goofing off a lot. But not going anywhere, and it feels like I somehow jumped into the middle of the story. I don't know if I'm supposed to know about how their magic works, or what Lina does.

I temporarily put it on hold, but I might pick it back up this week. I'm sure it does get really good because.

i just want to say, i love the animation. Lina is cute as a fucking button. Absolutely destroys Akko as far as being cute and a magic user, of about the same age. Naga is sexy as hell, and her armor rules... Their use of magic is interesting, but I haven't watched much else.

In the light novels, Naga is introduced later in the spin-off Slayers Special. SS takes place before Slayers proper, but because the core story had already been established, there's not as much world-building in SS as their is in the "core" LNs.

Similarly, the OVAs and movies don't build the world of Slayers up more than the context needs to be for the episode they're in. This is porbably why you feel like you're missing something, but don't fret. You will get to proper world-building in time. If you want, you can watch them all by release date instead.

Slayers -> Perfect -> NEXT -> Return -> TRY Special -> Great -> Gorgeous -> Excellent -> Premium -> Revolution -> Evolution-R

You should always watch in release order.

okay, i will, you're right. Tenchi Muyo for example is in release order and it's perfect.
