Slayers is an
Anime series that parodies
RPGs with the story of Lina Inverse and Gourry. The stories take place
in a medieval style world (mostly) with magic of course. Most of the show
goes in cycles starting out severely humorous, then slowly working towards
serious until at the end of the cycle the fate of the world (of course!)
hangs at the balance. Until the very end of each of these cycles though,
even the most serious moments will usually have a few short comedic relief
moments.
Slayers ran for three seasons. Season 2 goes by the name Slayers Next
and season 3 is called Slayers Try. There are also numerous
OVAs and movies in which Lina is partnered with the well-endowed and
somewhat obnoxious sorceress Naga. These adventures take place before the
events of the three television seasons.
