You would have to be brain dead not to be able to make pure win from Blade of the Immortal.

Duppin · 06-29-2008, 10:35 AM

Sadly, it seems like Maid Guy is no longer being subbed.

I personally cannot wait for Slayers REVOLUTION, like 5yrs ago The International channel played Slayers and DB/DBZ/DBGT from start to finish and I never missed a ep of slayers, I loved it.

PeonPower · 07-02-2008, 02:48 PM

Just watched the first episode of Slayers Revolution, and it's even better than I thought it would be.

They have all the old voice actors back, making the characters feel the same as before, and it´s still funny as hell. It´s basically just like the old series only with some updated animation.

Let´s see if they can manage to top Slayers Next, which is my favorite of the 3 old series.

Erie · 07-02-2008, 03:03 PM

I really don't get the obsession about slayers, seems below average to me. Just downloaded and got through about the first 12 episodes of the original since you guys react to it like it's the greatest.

Blide · 07-02-2008, 03:25 PM

First you need to watch more than 12 episodes of the first Slayers season, arguably the weakest of the three seasons. By episode 12, not even all the main characters are introduced yet.

I'll admit Slayers isn't the best series out there but it is still highly entertaining. It is DnD inspired with good humor and characters, plot is only secondary in Slayers.

As for Revolution, I kind of wanted to see a series with Lina, Gourry, and Naga but oh well.

There is some fansub group doing original DB translations on HD quality. I've been downloading their episodes every week! I forgot how good this anime was!

Gauss · 07-02-2008, 04:13 PM

Well the fansub wiki had 6 different groups involved in subbing xxxholic kei and none of them have done past ep 11. This is depressing.

TrooperEbonblade · 07-02-2008, 09:39 PM

I don't understand why either, xxxHolic is one of my favorite shows, I'm not even really sure why, I guess just the atmosphere and Yuko being an awesome character.

Blide · 07-02-2008, 10:38 PM

Doesn't look like it has been licensed yet either unless Funi is pulling some strange shit just before announcing it.

Also I'm eagerly waiting to see who the first group to sub Slayers Revolution is.

Itzena · 07-05-2008, 04:36 AM

Yeah, Slayers Revolution was pretty much spot on.
