Cause of the connections to D&d, D&D dragons don't use their wings to fly! That's why!

@@Folsomdsf2 I had to look into that because it sounded interesting, and I used to play a lot of DnD. So apparently in First edition they never specified that they used their wings to fly, and instead flew with magic. So the joke goes that some rules lawyer back then argued you could cast the old dispel magic spell on it and it would fall out of the sky and die. Every edition after has specified that they do use their wings, as well as innate magic since they are magical creatures, to fly.

@@DragonlordVindi And also Filia is OP enough that she can basically use something akin to the After-image technique in DBZ to dodge attacks. Dragon Slave? no thank you, don't want one. :D

​@@marhawkman303 She knows teleportation spell. She simply teleported away.

@@jaroslavpesek6642 Right, and she's good enough she can dodge attacks with it

I have never found any other anime that gives you that ominous feeling when spells are being cast.. Orphen maybe..

If you listen really closely to the BGM that starts at 3:16 in the clip, and know your music from the first two seasons, you'll notice way ahead of time what's coming up and start hyping for it, due to how the theme for that spell in particular was embedded into the track. It was a very, very well crafted piece of music to go with that scene. :)

Don't forget 'Pacifist Crush' and 'Kindness to all creatures kick!'

Yeah, and the fact that Filia is like.... " No thank you" and dodges it like it's a rock being thrown at her.

Mine was the fight between genma and toguro jr in ghost fighter. I watch it from time to time for inspiration in animation.

I barely remembered that scene lol

@@gweds it's actually one of her nicknames officially, in the manga they used it a lot more

@@KageNoTenshi Light novel*

@@7dayspking mangas I think, and in the anime too, I remember there was an instant where Lina was about to get step on by a dragon, but they jokingly made the dragon misstep for no reason just to miss her and bring up that nickname

@@KageNoTenshi Slayers originated as and the majority of Slayers is written in a series of stories serialized in Dragon magazine and later published in Light novels. Most of the mangas are short retellings or stories from the light novels or the anime series, with a handful of spin offs as well (medieval mayhem, Shin slayers, Super explosive demon story, light magic & Knight of the aqualord) Yeah they did that gag in the first episode of Slayers. In the light novels (Especially the Special series) they elaborate in more detail, including on the origin of these rumors.

I know it's 2 years later, buuut he stepped in front of Lina tho. He's a protective friend ♥ but yea, he's close with Amelia

I remember Filia justifying it as "I had to test you and see your real power" more than shifting the blame.

@@7dayspking - I just rewatched Ep 2 and Filia TOTALLY shifted blame (in the sub anyway). She says that she had no intention of destroying the town and that it was Lina’s fault with her spells. And she may be technically right but she still instigated regardless.

@@marlepeace9844 Lina asks 'why were we attacked by a dragon Priestess' Filia says 'to confirm your power as I told you I would' Lina accuses filia of 'attacking the town to do that' Filia says 'It wasn't my intention to destroy the town, you did that with your spell Lina' then continues 'besides , if you couldn't handle that you wouldn't survive what's ahead'. Filia doesn't shift the blame because she's adamant and already was before attacking them that it was necessary and righteous and that's her excuse. There's no guilt or repurcussions she wants to shift, she has that attitude towards them the entire time. Where as Lina was guilty for destroying the town, she outright fled to another land to escape the blame after all. She tried to shift that blame onto Filia but got shutdown hard, because Lina has no argument about who destroy the town. That's just her personality in the stories. She always ends up trying to shift, deflect, hide or run from the blame and she's always causing damage.

@@7dayspking Well.. Filia did SOME damage, but Lina did far more. Gaurry blew up one of the ships. Filia... did a lot less damage than Lina and co did.

@@marhawkman303 Filia doesn't care that she caused damage though. Filia doesn't feel guilty or want to escape her guilt.

Careful, xellos might come after you

@@KageNoTenshiwhy would he come, he doesn't give a shit about filia

@@inanna4861 that's not exactly true, he's shown he care about filia more than he should, if you think about it, he really shouldn't care about what she thinks of him at all. She is, to him, just a young golden dragon priestess of the flare lord, but rewatch next, he did went out of character level of annoyance of her bad opinion of him, which again, he shouldn't, after all he almost wiped out her entire race single handedly when he was less than 1 year old. what does that mean however is up to interpretation, after all she never show up again except during the one panels

@@KageNoTenshi And a short audio play, but it's hard to find.

Technically only the one in dota1 had the last name, they took it out in dota2 to avoid lawsuits

Came here to see dragon slave irl am not disappointed

Because of same sound director

First episode of the 3rd season, actually.

he barely learned his sword was capable of that lol

Gourry (the blonde guy) is the weakest member of the party without his magic sword, because linear swordsman in a party of quadratic wizards. Lina (the redhead), throws down with the setting's demon lords every so often and usually walks away from it, which is more than can be said for the other parties. She also has a tendency to cause maps to be redrawn when someone gets her sufficiently angry. Basically, 90% of the time the challenge for these guys is "not destroying it". The remaining 10% proves why being that powerful is sometimes necessary.

It's black magic, and she's a priestess specialized in shaman and white magic, so no.

Mengerikan

mystic dragon powers? heh.

@@marhawkman303 More like those old men have Stormtrooper aim.

@@yaboigamerdouji7573 enh, maybe, maybe. :D

Maybe they are trained for ship to ship combat and not for precise shooting on fast flying object.

@@jaroslavpesek6642 She’s literally flying in a straight line, the ship isn’t even moving so how are all of them missing

yeah it's a neat touch that Filia has a bow on her tail in her dragon form.

Or maybe the dragon ribbon is the original.
