Yeah, this movie becoems such a hilarious clusterfuck by the end but man, that amazing last attack, with that glorious fanfare almost brings a tear to my eye every time. Good look at the best Slayers picture, cheers!
One of the greatest convention TTRPG sessions I ever played in was Slayers vs. Castle Ravenloft. And yes, the castle absolutely got destroyed via Dragon Slave.
I watched Slayers Return because of your review! After watching the movie, I have to say that this made Lina and Naga this anime genre's version of Kai and Yuri, the "Dirty Pair!"
I think Return it's just the total package. It's better focused and with better commedy than the first movie, have a proper "serious" stake in the end, compared to movie 3 (easily the peak commedy Slayer movie, but also with the lowest stakes) and for some reasons, despite being all around solid, movie 4 really didnt left me any memorable impression. For me it's 2>3>1>4
Konosuba led me here and somehow now I wish there was a SRW or FE style game That does what SRW does for mecha anime but this time for swords and sorcery style anime instead~
another banger f a Slayers video Kaiser. While I personally love Slayers Special, Return is definitely in my top 3 list just under Book of Spells and I really look forward to when you cover that anthology when the time comes
In my opinion RETURN's not my favorite out of the 5. Slayer GREAT or GORGEOUS are my favorite I think it's the well written side characters that I like about those 2.
ah heck yeah more Slayers uploads~! personally I think Return isn't the best of the OVA's and movies, but it's still a banger regardless. I'm more a fan of the Book of Spells lineup. Also very happy to hear more FF9 OST in your vids~ Thanks for another awesome upload!
Damn, I really miss Slayers. I read one volume per year just to drag out its end... If I somehow had unlimited amount of money, the first thing I would do would be funding a Shaft adaptation of Medaka Box. Then funding a faithful adaptation of the Slayers LN after Volume 8 without completely retconning the 90s series.
You also forgot that the fight only broke out between the villagers and the former Zein henchmen was because Naga landed on Serena's face and immediately started blasting.
Lisa Ortiz will always be MY Lina. So yes, that is a huge knock against this movie sadly. I still can't stand Cynthia Martinez's portrayal of the character. All Martinez ever does is scream and act like a derpy ditz as the character. She doesn't have one tenth of the expression, range and comedic timing that Ortiz pours so lovingly into the character.
@@dwainsimmons3447 yea that’s because the New York cast didn’t dub the movies only 1 of them had the New York cast but that was only one of the actors the one that played zelgadis he returned for the movie that took place in the tv series storyline I heard that they tried to get Lisa Ortiz too for Lina in the movies but she was busy doing some work at the time so they had to find someone else also while I prefer the tv series actors I also kinda like Lina’s voice in the movies it took a bit of getting used to but once your used to it you realize that the dubs still pretty good adv films did a good job and while I used to wish they could’ve got Lisa Ortiz to reprise her role now I’m glad they didn’t because I like both actors takes on the character I just wish David moo could’ve reprised his role like crispin freemen did as zelgadis
Pausing at 7:09 to say this: Slayers Return and X were bother shown in Japanese movie theaters together as a double-feature? Shut up and take my money!
Yeeeeeaaaah... At this point, I am going to assume it is. Hwhelp, I wish you the best of luck with your channel, but I'm unsubscribing. Your History of Looney Tunes series was awesome while it lasted and it really is a shame it got canceled before I could have a proper ending. I understand why though (those ultra mega super hardcore Looney Tunes fans who like even the 1960s are a-holes for not letting people have their own opinions (just like (almost) everybody else on the internet)
I would have liked the slayers franchise but with about 90% less comedy. The first season of the series was a good balance of serious and silly. But after that the silly took over.
As someone who has seen all Slayers media multiple times I can tell you that is statistically not true, and you are definitely overexaggerating. Next was by far one of the darkest series even if the jokes were more dead even, and Revolution and Evolution-R together were by far the most serious minded in general, overall.
That ending scene of Lina and Naga staring and smiling at each other and shouting with such enthusiasm on their accomplishment always gets me chills.
My mother used to do Naga's laugh and holy hell it was awesome
Your mom is extremely based, mate.
These Slayer reviews always get me to remember why I enjoy this series.
This was always my favorite Slayers movie. Gorgeous is pretty good too.
Yeah, this movie becoems such a hilarious clusterfuck by the end but man, that amazing last attack, with that glorious fanfare almost brings a tear to my eye every time. Good look at the best Slayers picture, cheers!
The OVAs are basically prequels to the main series
I actually cheered when I saw it was time for another Slayers video. Yesssss. This brightens my day for real.
Older anime looks so much better for some reason, gonna need to watch this show eventually
it's the cel animation w/ 70s-90s cameras
it's divine
Kunihiko Yuyama will always be the Pokemon movies director to me
When Kaiser posts Kyoto Video, all else loses meaning and the new objective is to watch that upload immediately. Love what you do, man!!
Unless you're working at your job, so.

This was awesome I'm now invested in watching Slaylers lol love your video's!

I used to have a geocities site in 98 called Pyrofires Selena Shrine. It was even listed on the anipike.
I swear the meteor fall bit was the greatest joke in the whole franchise, and I can't be convinced otherwise
Always good to see more Slayers.
Slayers Gorgeous is my favorite Slayers movie, so I'm looking forward to... next year from now?
Zelgadis is absolute husbando material! ❤️🔥🥰😍🤩💝💖💗💓💞💕💘💥🔥
2:34 IIII…. Shooot the liiights out!!
Is that FFIX and The Legend of Dragoon music I hear in the background? Hell yeah, love it
Another excellent Slayers review.
Another great video
I don't remember it ever existing. And I love Slayers xD.
I think Return it's just the total package. It's better focused and with better commedy than the first movie, have a proper "serious" stake in the end, compared to movie 3 (easily the peak commedy Slayer movie, but also with the lowest stakes) and for some reasons, despite being all around solid, movie 4 really didnt left me any memorable impression.

another banger f a Slayers video Kaiser.

kaiser returns :0
Love the Slayers movies with Naga the Serpent as Leina's partner.
The movie with the Giant Golem Battle, that is my fav Slayers movie.
ah heck yeah more Slayers uploads~!

Summer wouldn't be complete without a Slayers video!!!
Lol koala! I love this joke so much
Slayers!
Regarding the comedy element, would you say Slayers (in terms of the film and TV installments) is almost like a D&D campaign led by Mel Brooks?
He mentioned that in his first Slayers video
*Gives self mild slap upside the head.* I can’t believe I forgot that.
Town the dig up…hmmm yes
Koala.

Sounds like you're say3 this movie is 'Bo bobob babobbubo.'
If you do get around to talking about X, Can you please post the video on the first of January?
You also forgot that the fight only broke out between the villagers and the former Zein henchmen was because Naga landed on Serena's face and immediately started blasting.
So this is the origin of the "yass queen, slay" meme
Can you do a Harlock saga review?
Was your SlayerS Great video got deleted?
It doesn't have Lisa Ortiz
Right
Lisa Ortiz will always be MY Lina. So yes, that is a huge knock against this movie sadly. I still can't stand Cynthia Martinez's portrayal of the character.

ah yeh KB's favorite
Babe babe wake up!!! A new Kaiser Beam video!!!
Finally another slayers video
But it doesn’t have the New York cast.
@@dwainsimmons3447 yea that’s because the New York cast didn’t dub the movies only 1 of them had the New York cast but that was only one of the actors the one that played zelgadis he returned for the movie that took place in the tv series storyline I heard that they tried to get Lisa Ortiz too for Lina in the movies but she was busy doing some work at the time so they had to find someone else also while I prefer the tv series actors I also kinda like Lina’s voice in the movies it took a bit of getting used to but once your used to it you realize that the dubs still pretty good adv films did a good job and while I used to wish they could’ve got Lisa Ortiz to reprise her role now I’m glad they didn’t because I like both actors takes on the character I just wish David moo could’ve reprised his role like crispin freemen did as zelgadis
It's sad how your Looney Tunes series is the only thing most people who know of you care about because your anime reviews are superb.

9th video in a row asking you to do legends of the galactic heroes
naga such a baddie frfr
Soooo... I take it The Merry History of Looney Tunes is cancelled?
Yeeeeeaaaah...

Been aware of this show, basically forever. But I might actually have to give 'er a shot
Go for it!
Wait, what is this about Slayers coming back next year? Is there a new project?
No, he's talking about how he does one Slayers related review every year.
