Although it wasn't the main line, that was a really funny melodrama! 5/5 ))))))))))

Bizarre episode is Bizarre. I expected something terrible and got this instead. can't say I particularly liked the episode but I did get a good laugh towards the end when all these ridiculous scenarios rolled out. xD

I can't wait for episode 5 since Xellos is finally back (but where's Wizer? ;_;). not to mention that Zuuma will be back in the picture again. oddly enough, since the plot will resume next episode, there might not be a Trap Gourry this season. D:

EDIT: links for subbed episodes' 1 & 2 are on /rs/. has anybody seen them yet? is the quality of the video better than the raws?

Seriously, what the fuck was that?! Condensate melodrama. With fishes. At first it was pretty much annoying but later rather amusing ^^ Crazy episode.

Well, that was one crazy episode. Almost as strange towards the end as episode 15 from Try. It was pretty funny though, so I guess it was worth the watch.

Here's to hoping that next episode really does get back on track with the plot. Either way, it'll be nice to see Xellos appear again. :D

This episode is crazy. I would rather want to see the main story.

I can't remember very well. Can anyone tell me if Gourry was that stupid in the first 3 seasons too?

Yeah, he was empty-headed except for the occasional smart line out of nowhere.


Man, this and episode 2 were hilarious but this one was the funniest. All the melodramatic things at the end made me laugh so hard! Hahah, oh so much fun! I cant wait for episode 5 though since Xellos is back and the plot will be moving forward.

Still, I wonder why Amelia hasnt mentioned that Nama was lying about the jar since she found that out last episode? Maybe she doesnt want to start a fight...
Blergh.

The scary thing is, he's been pretty smart so far. (well for as smart as he can be)

Wow. Just wow. I'm surprised to say that this episode was too random for me. I felt like some of the jokes fell flat (I've seen them several times before, including on Slayers) and other came so far out of left field that they lacked impact. Several of the characters continue to differ from the ideas I have about them. This episode made me seriously consider dropping the series, because it contains most of what I do not like about this version of Slayers. I'll watch at least the next episode though.

I don't think it's just that I'm getting older and my tastes are changing, though. I mean, I rewatched the begining of Slayers a few months ago and still liked it, just not quite as much as I originally did.

Its just nostalgia talking, a sequel to an old series will never be as good in the eyes of many people.

The plot starts to pick up from the next episode though. So it'll be less random comedy fillers

Thanks.

I agree with what bubblehead said. Slayers Revolution and this season seem different from what I remember from the first 3 that I watched many years ago. I like the previous seasons better.

This was an absolutely terrible episode. God awful. I couldn't stand even a second of it. There was only one scene in the entire episode that I remotely liked, and that was when Lina asked Gourry (who wasn't there) for his roast beef. It reminded me of Slayers NEXT. Remember Slayers NEXT? The GOOD season.

This episode was enough for me to drop this series like a radioactive hot potato, and make it a 1/10. This is also the first time I've ever given a show a 1/5 for an episode. But I can't drop this series. Wanna know why? Because Xellos is in the next episode. That's the only reason I'm going to give this one more try. Sweet, sweet Xellos.

And to those of you how gave this more than 3, you need your heads examined. -_-

Probably the best episode of the series, along with the 3rd one.
Great parody of melodramas XD
I was expecting there'd be a whole crew shooting a movie or something XD

I have to say, I love these random fillers a whole lot more than the main storyline XD
And from time to time they remind me why I love the Slayers-universe so much :)

Finally we get back to the story, damn! I wish this season would just stay to the story, like it did the first season of slayers evolution. These last 4 episodes were pretty average and this one put me to sleep.

Wow, talk about taking a joke too far? That was making me laugh at loud for a while until it just got insane. Overall, Slayers has some awesum filler. xD

Zel just going along with everything...He always manages to be such a victim. (I hope Nama/Naga stays along until the end. I really did miss her. <3)

Especially loved the english Dub's in this one. Zel'Gadis especially: "Dont touch me there." and: fish-mother: "Zel'Gadis is actually your brother!" Lina: "IS this true?!! Zel'gadis: "I dunno...could be."

But yeah, nostalgia forgives some mistakes these new show's do.

Well I thought this was pretty good--particularly when Lina tried to say that Gourry was just her bodyguard, was met with that long soulful look and started blushing.

Oh man same old same old. It's like a re-watch of the previous episode where she said the same xD.

It turned out at the end to be fun and totally random xD.

That was really great, and the Naga ruined everything :D

Overall a quite good episode :-) And finally Xellos in next one :-)

Not a bad episode; I'm probably going to like the filler content better than the main plot when all is said and done.

Slayers Try is really looking good to me now.

Ok, this was hilarious melodrama. I love it when this series goes crazy and some of the stuff in this episode was simply finest weirdness.

Probably the worst Slayers episode I've seen. Of course, since this is the worst one, there will be people saying it's the best.
