An hour? I respect that amount of work.

How much it deepens the bonds of the core cast is very true, not just the characters but for the voice actors. A few years ago I met Veronica Taylor at a convention, she was mostly promoted as the voice behind Ash from Pokemon, When I got to the front of the line and said I wanted to meet her because of her work voicing Amelia from Slayers, her eyes widened, she got excited, and immediately our meeting turned a 180 as she was enthusiastically asking me questions. 'What was my favorite episode? Have I met any of the other cast members? How did my interaction with them go?' She was beaming! It's one of my favorite celebrity meet and greets from a convention to date.

As a Team Sub from the beginning, I can't deny this dub is great. Kudos to Lina's VA and her director for the casting. Seriously, she is essentially English Hayashibara Megumi.

I might check this anime out. Did you know Cartoon Network Japan ran a marathon with Skaters and Mighty Magiswords.

3:33 peppino scream pizza tower

29:38 🤣 I must know the name of that sound effect! EDIT - Never mind. Found it!

why is this anime underrated? is so good and the dub is great

I've watched this multiple times since you released it and (obviously) watched slayers too many times. yet I can't help but love this cast of idiots and their adventures. Also, as someone that watched 90% of my anime in Dub this is one of those that I feel weird watching in Sub.

ok, six things: thing 1: Slayers Next is my favorite of the series too, you my man thing 2: ONE HOUR. Good god. Now that's dedication to something you love. thing 3: your choice of bgm continues to be beyond perfect. I mean, you even use FF9 music. That is an instant 100% for me. thing 4: ok I still stand by my belief that the dub is nothing compared to the sub, but 5:50 is a very good clip, I am impressed by that voice actress. thing 5: David Moo is actually my biggest reason for not liking the dub at all, so there you go thing 6: Despite the disagreements I may express, your reviews are freaking awesome and you really do deserve more subs. Thank you for making these videos, and keep up the good work!

thank you so much for this video! givin' me a reason for life over here

huh you know I dont think we have a long form slayers video huh? your doing gods work Kaiser

Slayers is such an important part of my childhood, it is so nice to hear someone talk about it! It pushed me to pursue animation.^^ Even as a young girl, I knew Next was the best season!

I just watched your Slayers and NEXT reviews back to back and this was great. It's insane that you are not more popular. Hopefully this one comment will help that little bit to make the KZfaq algorithm overlords notice your channel so that more people can find your amazing videos. Also it should go without saying, but you've just gained an extra subscriber.

Zelgadis is so cute

I'm two years late to this video and you're just...you get it dude. Completely. Thank you for this, Slayers is in my top 5 anime of all time and it was my *true* gateway anime at age seven (my mom got the 2nd VHS of season 1 at a pawn shop and the rest was history), and NEXT is really the best oftan always welcome show.

_Looks at video length_ Hoo boy, looks like I'm in for the long haul.

Truly the best out of the original three series. And I don't care what people say, David Moo was great as Xellos! I just love that snarkiness that sounds similar to that of Jess Harnell and Greg Proops.

sir i require the next installment of Slayers please i need it also you should have more subs man, amazing analysis and content my friend!

This was awesome. Completely worth the wait! Now to wait until next year...

17:10 it gets even worse when you realize that SPOILERS: Phil was her only parent left.

Why don't you have more subs? Let's hope the YT algorithm blesses you like Kenny Lauderdale Your content is amazing!

The funniest was Dragon Cuisine!

Great effort with the video. This was also my favorite season of Slayers. It's the one I saw the most at Blockbuster as a kid. Martina was delightfully nutty.

Awesome review of an awesome series/season.

10:36 “THATS AN AT FIELD!!”

A big one

Who else excited for the try review

20:55 Every time she speaks all i can hear is Misty

One of my all time faves!

Hellmaster Phibrizo seems like he should be in fucking Berserk or Soulsborne Lore. The horror and complete and utter lack of context of this abomination in a series that tends to go from zany to serious on a see-saw is disturbing. It's like if Alucard from Hellsing showed up to help 'deal with' bullies in a high school romance anime or if the latest episode of Ranma 1/2 featured a surprise visit by Dio Brando. And I don't mean power level wise (although, yes, that too), but the sheer One Of These Things Is Not Like The Others factor.

Give the Subbed version of Next a go… some of the more emotional moments of this saga are more powerful in Japanese. Hellmaster Phibrizzo’s screams of agony when encountering Lord of Nightmares is something to behold in JP.

5:20 i feel _ dead. Holy crap I'm dead. ☠

You say David Moo and my first thought went to that one time he played crazy man in YGO. Remember that one time Rachael played a one off character in that little known 2000s dumpsterfire where it was like she was reading the script for the first time in the booth because she burst out laughing at the character's boyfriend dieing 10 seconds after introducing him. That was a great relationship. Thanks for the memories.

Love you review . Nice dune

Dude as Xellos the va nailed it as the 4 kids one piece sanji...it uh..different story

My favorite anime op

C'mon, that endind's pretry hilarious. Pratchett even used it for his book.

Where can I watch this??

22:05 Hey come on. Language, Lina. You’re talking to a child.

hmm guess im a slayers fan now :-D

My favorite season of my favorite anime besides Slayers TRY

was the whole cast just picked up for pokemon lol

What anime is that lady from at exactly :22 seconds who talks of this video/intro. She seems so familiar but can’t figure out which anime it’s from.

Since the kingdom of Seiruun is in the shape of a star of david, I wonder if this means the kingdom is based on Israel and technically Amelia is the first major jewish character in anime?

The way Slayers next ended was so good but then they came out with the anti climatic Slayers try

I could never take the name "Fabrezo" seriously. It sounds like what Snoop Dogg sprays on his old shirts.

I forgot Martina existed.

you know @KaiserBeamz as far as anime goes golden boy is not the best p4p anime or even knocks off slayers by a min. why? B/c slayers is more of a show i could show too a child and they could like it and understand the corki dramatical followings that follow. With golden boy i can only show that to a certain group of people b/c of the age references and scenarios in the anime. Not everyone can watch golden boy but everyone can watch Slayers. So i disagree that golden boy even out ranks Slayers by even a minute. Slayers in its own right is p4p queen.

The crossdressing episode *almost* says some interesting things. The recurring bit about Lena being the most under suspicion because she doesn't live up to certain standards of femininity is interesting and the reverse Mulan plot could have been sweet if played straight. The ending really lost everything good that made it into that mess of an episode...

This show is like if you play DND but your dungeon master has ADHD and can't stick to one story all the way

Zelgadis,grumpy?! That's an understatement, he's downright mean! Edit: they should have left Zelgadis dead at the end, he's so unlikable

Xellos is the main reason I can't watch the dub. I was introduced to the series through the sub of Next, and when my sister showed me a dubbed episode with Xellos, I was absolutely appalled; I hate his English voice with the fire of 1000 supernovas. Also: why does Sylphiel look so much like Xellos?

Ooof nooo noooo Xellos' dub voice does NOT match the character. He sounds like an old-timey radio host. 😩 He is wily, charming, and devious. Ubassuming and soft-spoken. Mysterious, dangerous, lurking. The dub voice is out of place and quite jarring. If you really want to experience the magnificence of this show, watch it subbed. The voices are perfect for the character, have more heart, energy, and sound so much more natural. The English dub have horrible inflection, cadence, and honestly feels like they dont know whats happening.

Did you have to shit on Star vs The Forces Of Evil to make an unjustified comparison? One I think you're absolutely 100% wrong about, by the way. Slayers is literally my favorite show and work of fiction of all time, no doubt, but that little bit was totally unjustified and flat-out wrong. Seriously, the show itself even spends 2 entire season arcs actually CONTRADICTING what you said and preaching a moral that is the OPPOSITE of what you said. Seems like you didn't even watch it.
