Slayers is one of the preeminent action-adventure fantasy series of the 90s, considered as a classic among the anime of that time. In terms of design, humor, and storytelling, Slayers steadily become a name known for being a series unique to its genre and became quite popular among viewers.
The setup of the Slayers is meant to be silly and doesn’t take itself too seriously, favoring episodic stories while leaning heavily into the comedic outcome. While the fantasy mechanics and its world are nothing new nowadays, in the 90s, Slayers completely shuffles the fantasy/adventure deck with those elements.
For the fans of the 90s anime, Slayers is a diamond in the rough amongst the horde of mediocre titles. If you plan to watch Slayers anime, then watch it according to this order.
