Probably the most fun of the bunch, but also the most formulaic one. It's completely detached from reality; we got to a point where the gags happen for the sake of gags and the plot progresses just because it has to. You can clearly see it in the designs and the dialogue too; there are no real stakes or motivation. Hell, I'd rather have Rezo show up again, at least he had a motivation and a proper goal! Flawed as it blalantly was, they used it to the show's advantage! Nothing so far, in terms of writing, has been used to enrich Lina's world or to at least create a one-shot movie that can stand on its own. Being unrelated to the main story is not enough, any movie needs to be complete in terms or writing and by that I mean that the characters must be realistic and humane, otherwise any stor…

I've talked about The Slayers franchise twice before. Once with the first film and again with Slayers Return. Thus far, it's proven to be a solid franchise. Let's see if it can maintain that with our third look at one of their instalments.  Story: We open with our heroine, Lina Inverse arriving at a town where they build golems with her frenemy, Naga the Serpent. They save a young girl from a rampaging mechanical bull and she insists on repaying them after their aggressive insistences that she doesn't need to do anything for them in return. The pair quickly find themselves caught up in a squabble between two lords who both want to rule the city.  The biggest issue in the film is probably that a lot of the "twists" are pretty obvious. But this is also one of those works where the plot is…

This is going to be a short review. I thought I might write a review for this anime, since nobody else has. Slayers Great is the third Slayers movie (and the fourth Slayers installment to feature the voluptuous Naga overall), and I must say that while I feel the movies and OVAs didn't capture the magic in the same way the series did, this movie scratched an itch...at least for me. The story has the same hilarity and spectacle as a typical higher-tier Slayers story. Two golems, one modeled after Lina and one modeled after Naga, duking it out? You better believe it's a classic. As for the art, I feel the art was pretty good on this OVA. The fluidity has stepped up since last time, so that's a step up. I would give a decent score to the art. When it comes to the sound, I loved it. I espec…
