Review of Slayers

Slayers (1995)
6/10
Not the best anime ever made
28 April 2002
Warning: Spoilers
I watched this one the other day... it was late and i felt like watching something short 'cause i was pretty tired already.

i'm not familiar with the tv-series but i thought this couldn't be a bad entry to the series... well i haven't watched any episodes yet.. that speaks for the interest in the subject that this movie-experience invoked within my person :-)

it's only an hour or so and throughout the 60 minutes it keeps up its fast pace and cheeky dialogue. **MINOR SPOILER*** but just WHY is it that nagha teams up with nagha? or where they in a team before and just happened to be briefly separated? the film doesn't make that clear enough, in my opinion.*** i hate to disagree with everyone who's very excited about Nagha and the interesting qualities of her character (i can only think of 2 though :b) but WHY OH WHY does she have to LAUGH like that? is that her special trademark or some stupid marketing joke and does it expand to the series as well?! I HATE IT!!! for the love of all the that is good and true... how can anyone find this funny?!! her laughter made me wanna smash some script-writer's face in every time it penetrated my eardrums.

all in all i can say that the movie was entertaining to watch for the most part, though still a loooong stretch from what i consider GOOD anime. also, i thought that the plot was kind of forced and the main characters were not really interested in what was going on ***spoiler***(except the breast-growing pond)*** . the fact that it's short & spicy could well be considered it's most outstanding qualities. :p

i give it a 6 for the ***Spoiler*** battle between the sea-cucumbers and the jelly fish!!!***
