Slayers Thread! DORAGU SUREIBU
Nobu:
This was the first anime/fandom that I ever got worked into, and it still gives me fond memories. I remember even learning how to sing some of the songs before knowing a lick of Japanese :colonveeplusalpha:
Got any Slayers fans in the woodwork? I know there's been some new series in recent years, but i've only seen the first three seasons along with a couple of the movies.
Firestorm29:
Slayers was one of the three series that introduced me to anime, the other two being Ruroni Kenshin and Magic Knights Rayearth. Rayearth was my first series I watched. Loved all of em. :D
I saw that series, only problem was I caught the last 5 episodes that were being played of the new series. D'oh!
Garlyle:
Thanks for reminding me I need to borrow Revolution off of my friend.
I kept putting it off since I grew up with the dub (And while the JP voices are fine enough, they just feel WEIRD after being so used to the dub), so I didn't watch it while it or Evolution-R was coming out, and now I just haven't gotten around to it @_@
Solais:
Same story, even though half of the "french cartoons" I was watching as a child was actually an anime (Dragonball, Sailormoon, Pokeman), Slayers was the first I seen in Japanese and knowing that I'm watching a japanese anime. So same story as Nobuta.
Yeah, Revolution and EvolutionR was VERY good. Especially the second one. You should watch it.

I grew up with the dub for the first season, before discovering subs for the first time in Next. The dub is still pretty hilarious though. :V
I used to actually do Slayers roleplaying on AOL chatrooms, and it was the first online community I ever joined back in ~end of the 90s early 2000s. Bonus points to anyone that could guess which character. :3
