i agree with you they should bring Gaav back its my favorite mazoku

Florin Herlea you forgot xellos is one? Side note I like hellmaster more, I still remember watching this for the first time when I was 8, I got caught completely off guard, just as he said, no one including me expecting anything from a kid

@@florinherlea8376 It's not dbz shit stuff. If You die in Slayers, then You die permanently. Don't even start with resurected Rezo, that Evolution and Revolution "seasons" were LAME AF. We need serious continuation of Slayers on decent level.

@@KageNoTenshi My fav was always Valgaav. He had amazing backstory, as a kid I was amazed by his nihilistic need to destroy the whole world and create a new one, without gods and monsters. IMHO "TRY" is the best out of all 3 seasons, it's deep and more serious than previous ones.

Lx Dead I didn’t hate it per say, but it felt a bit shoehorned in, a good plot twist is one that was set up, and there was zero set up when gaav was around to say he was hiding him or him being a trump card or how he would leave most of his power with him if he dies, nothing, if gaav even made one passing line during season two where while he was being beat down make a throw away line about how if he has all his power he would have at least been able to get away or something, it would have made the season three revel an actual revel, as of the way they’ve done it, it just felt like a shoehorned in story

He was killing a demon

@@KageNoTenshi By "people" I mean any manner of sentient being. Not just humans.

@@KageNoTenshi Also if you want to get really technical about it Gaav is actually a demon/human hybrid.

@@runetide not so much a hybrid as something trapped inside a human form, that’s the way they explained it, and it is debatable rather masakus are sentient beings or something else all together, it’s more like they are primal forces or aspects, as they were born from the primal chaos known as lord of nightmares, aka the golden demon king

@@KageNoTenshi As I understood it Gaav was repeatedly reincarnated in a human body multiple times over many centuries. Each time this happened his human side gained more and more influence, to the point that he no longer had the same goal as the Masaku species as a whole. That's why his kind wanted him dead, because he was no longer a pure Masaku. He had become tainted by humanity.

And he in turn got offed ignominiously.

Is that who dubbed Fabrizzos voice? XD All this time I have watched and rewatched the series in dub and i never noticed it was him. XD

Didn't he beat Yugi after battle city was over? Because I remember Joey has his red eyes back in dark side of dimensions, and he didn't want it back until he earned it from Yugi.

And then kidnapped Seto Kaiba!

It doesnt count if it happened off-screen.

@@thejamesshow8606 earned it or win it? Doing chores for a month is a fine way of earning things, hahaha, but then again the anime messed up a lot of the lore, especially when they added those filler arcs, officially yami never lost a single duel during the entire series, that was the whole reasoning of why yugi had to beat him in order for him to pass on to the afterlife, because he never lost, and he can only move on when a better warrior surpasses him, which means it makes zero sense for yami to have lost any duels, the only times they can happen in the story are the plot making yugi take over because kaiba threaten to kill himself or something like that

yea the slayers anime has alot of those one peice I remember also used them but I don't remember if it still does

Holy shit! Even Slayers has DBZ sound effects in their anime! My god!

thing is, they were not "DBZ's", many series used those effects back then, because it was cheaper.

No little, he is the second in command to the demon king ruby eyes, literally the second most powerful demon in this realm

Yeah, Gourry is soo cute with her 🩷 .

When Ponies Attack I did

Phibrizzo was mocking her. The whole point of the Zoamelgustar gag is that Martina made this creature up, as if there weren't enough _real_ Mazoku around already.

It wasn’t real, so yes he was mocking her, but at the same time they’ve also explained how concentrated faith will or believes does make it real, that’s why the part of her casting a curse using zoam ‘s power worked on Lina, so in a sense it was real because she believed in it so much for so long, her faith gave it power

The tone of Phibrizzo's voice during the delivery of the line "Out of respect for Zoamelgustar" implies heavy sarcasm. It's hard to pick out if you're not a native speaker of sarcasm. 😅 Zoamelgustar is not a real mazoku/monster in any way. Yes, Martina's faith and belief in him is strong and was strong enough to put a curse on Lina, but she's not strong enough to manifest a new Mazoku into the universe alone with her faith. Perhaps if Martina makes Zoamelgustar the patron deity of the future rebuilt Zoana he might eventually manifest into a new Mazoku from the combined belief from the people and decendants of that kingdom. For now though he's simply Martina's imaginary friend and original character.

+henrywilljb I actually agree with you. I much prefer the Japanese version.

His voice isn't that developed... sounds like a 13-14 year old.

His dub voice actor fits perfectly

@karakami 14-15 maybe.

I just realized: isn’t that Joey Wheeler’s VA in the background??

That's what I always thought, too. which is why he waited so long to off him.

I vividly remember the show stating that Gaav got weaker with each reincarnation. A slow and subtle fall from his statues in the demon race.

@@cometofsquirrels5048 yup, he couldn't be erased during the war, so his essence was sealed within human body and doomed to reborn each time as a man. It's not that he became weaker with each reincarnation, it's just that his power was weakened by his human, mortal side, and that's the main reason Phibrizzo could kill him of. All Shabranigdo servants (Zellas, Gaav and Phibrizzo) were equal in power.

Yep, her name is Rachael Lillis. And Eric Stuart is Gourry, who is Brock in Pokemon.

Amelia was voiced by Veronica Taylor (aka Ash from Pokemon), not Rachel Lillis

@@imwatchingyou759 Martina was voiced by Rachel Lillis who voiced both Misty and Jesse

And Lina is voiced by Lisa Ortiz, who also voiced many characters from Pokémon as well, including Sabrina.

⁠@@archibaldcabebe6062and they’re joined together with the mighty Crispin Freeman who voice a bunch of characters

J. Hanna "demon" is an accurate translation because it implies they're against the gods/religion. This is what I was told by someone who ran a blog on yokai.

Oh yes, yes, you're correct. As a kid, back in the 90's, I remember how people were offended about the word goddess, let alone demons. A few years back I saw a kid's program use a goddess in a positive way and was fairly shocked, I am happy about it though.

Nah, this dub is actually good now and then.

Xellos had nothing to do with the hellmaster itself .... he is the servant from one of the 5 demon kings (the greater beast zelas metallium). Fibrizo is also one of the demon kings, the strongest of them.

Phibrizzo reminds me of both Bill Cipher from Gravity Falls and Henry Evans from The Good Son.

Rodolfo Puebla with DBZ sound effects!!!

A lot of the voice actors in Slayers did some 4Kids stuff; Amelia was voiced by Ash's voice actress, Martina voiced Jesse and Misty, Gourry was voiced by the guy who did Brock and James, Lisa Ortiz voiced a few characters in Winx Club, Xellos was Sanji in the One Piece 4Kids. The voice actor for Zelgadis has also been in a shitload of stuff, he was really prominent for a few years.

@@Unotuchable but better

@@UnotuchableAnd Sylphiel voice actress did the Viz media voice for Sailor Moon. How shocking!

@@GameXenoZero64wait really?

LOL Did you ever know of the Zatch Bell dub? They likewise translated Mamono as "Mamodo"... smfh.

Yeah, the Slayers manga by CPM (Super Explosive Demon Story) had it as "Evil Clan" (even for a singular Mazoku, lol).

This was dubbed a long time ago, back when you couldn't say demon on a kids show without some kind of moral outcry.
