I'm gonna be honest with you guys: Lina isn't flat.

Edit: Is there an order I should watch this in? I'm starting with the original anime and it seems to be standalone but about everything else.

I've been watching this dubbed for the first 20 episodes but I can't handle it anymore. Trying to match lip flaps has led to some of the biggest dubbing crimes against humanity.

There were constant jokes about Lina's flat chest (which isn't flat) but I didn't have subs on so I don't know.

Slayers is the most accurate portrayal of all time of what Dungeons & Dragons is really like.

Well, the Fighter is useless, so it is pretty accurate.

I'm one episode into Next and the english voice acting already seems 100x better.

The 4kids dub actors are great at being goofs, but I can't stand that Veronica Taylor only knows how to do two voices, so I end up watching the sub anyway.

This is a weird criticism to me because pretty much every Japanese voice actor has only one voice they ever do.

Until someone tries to rules lawyer their way out of a bad situation it's not a D&D campaign.

The show ignoring all consequences of Lina blowing up cities and tons of bystanders is the best. Reminds me of One Punch Man in a way.

How did Lina beat up Shabranigdu but she can't beat up Xellos? Science can't explain that.

The first series's dub was kind of rough, but they fixed the problems by Next in my opinion.
