I was happy and excited when the news hit me. Slayers is the best fantasy/comedy anime IMHO, and one of the BEST shows to ever grace the 90s anime scene. I grew up with Slayers and it's already immortalized in my mind, i was happy enough when they re-aired slayers at a local channel here in my country...and i couldn't be more happier that a new season is coming out.
The news totally caught me off guard, i thought Slayers was done..Just another piece of good history...........*will say this in a Macho Man Randy Savage kind of way*---"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhh YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
The good ol days of dragon Slavin'....
I think it's good news not only for those familiar with it but also for the newer generation of anime fans. The new generation of fans need it, they need to know what a good anime is made of...and i sure hope that the new season is good enough to match up to the caliber of the90s Slayers.
