slayers season

This is tricky, but it's actually a tie between Slayers Next and Slayers Revolution/Evolution-R.

First off, since the gang met each other in the first season, Next is really when they get their group chemistry going. It has some of the best scenes for both gags and touching moments, while having a good plot at the same time with a great season finale. (I love how Gourry goes after Lina every time, always gets me a little teary eyed.) Next is classic, I love rewatching it over and over again.

Okay, now Revolution/Evolution-R (and really it's the same season that got divided into two parts.) I know a lot of fans don't care for this season and I agree that bringing Rezo back was a cliche move when they writers could have found a way to bring in perhaps Dynast, Sherra, etc. (And I want to see Gourry get the blast blade in anime form dang it!)

However, since it's been ten years since the original anime came I try to look at those aspects as the writers trying to bring in new fans. I still wish they could have used villains and plot points from the later novels, but I can understand the writer's logic and we can hope the later novels will get animated in one way or another.

So, why do I like Revolution/Evolution-R? First off, I like how group just feels so relaxed around each other at this point. I know some Z/A fans said there wasn't as many blushing moments as there was in Next and Try, but I think them not blushing actually shows how much closer they've gotten. Heck, from how they act you can easily believe they're a couple off screen cause Zelgadis and Amelia do act like a couple that's been together for awhile.

Lina and Gourry got quite a few good moments too, plus we got some great new characters in both Wizer and Pokota. I still love the fact that after wishing they would get Dan Green to voice Wizer they actually got Dan Green for it. I will admit I like Pokota more than Filia because Pokota does become the central figure of the plot as much as Filia did. Both Filia and Pokota were important to their plots, but Filia seemed to take more attention from the plot than Pokota.

And finally, we saw Nama/Naga. Let's face it, that's probably as close as we're going to get to see Naga interact with the main group, and to have Naga and Amelia together on screen without the universe exploding.
