Slayers NEXT Opening (Give a reason)

[@katsumi-na1198]

90年代の林原めぐみはまさに夕方アニメ無双状態だった

[@斑鳩イカルガ]

90年代テレ東18時台最強女王

[@ユヤゲ]

それこそ、あのドンキーコングがアニメ化された際にディディの声を林原さんがやって、もう一人の主人公の山寺宏一さんとのデュエットとはいえ、その作品も主題歌とエンディングを担当しましたしね♪伝説を残しすぎだよ、林原さんｗ

[@Ghost_Li0716]

How about Two-mix?

[@石井美津子-x7d]

林原めぐみさん、緑川光さん、子安武人さんが出てないアニメがなかった

[@77あざらし]

とりあえずビール、 のノリで林原が起用されてた時代

[@kennylauderdale_en]

THE 90's Intro. Few anime even come close.

[@OmegaEnvych]

And fewer more have opening this good for a show this good IMO.

[@renardor]

This is dope

PLEASE DO A VIDEO ABOUT SLAYERS OMFG

[@abell8564]

hello! just wanna say you have a big fan here! I enjoy your content so so much man, thanks!

[@pabloponticas7604]

Cool to see u here keeny! See you again in your next Slayers vid xoxo

[@Silvern.Blackwing]

One of the most amazing songs of the 90s! Megumi Hayashibara is such an incredible singer.

[@luis-criado]

and still, I don't have any idea of what it says

[@一田-b3u]

当時は何気なく聴いていた歌詞が心に刺さるようになってしまった 元気が出るのに泣けそう

[@屋根裏の雨宮]

何年経っても本当良い曲は色褪せないな 昔はこんな簡単に聴けなかったから録画してたビデオ何回も巻き戻して聴いてたな笑

[@melostudiox]

I did that a lot too haha.

[@catcatcat_ofilo]

Me too 😬😬😬

[@はやしちせ]

同じくです😂

[@shinjustice360]

解るわ〜

[@ヤハタの塩]

年上の方のそういった話し好きです。

[@黄い実]

最も好きなアニメオープニング これは永遠に揺らぐことはないでしょう

[@Danteante]

I had to come here to check if it was just my mind playing tricks, but no! It was sang in realist hero today. neat.

[@ms.gabrieladelcarmenprecia6425]

Yesssssssss!!!!!!

[@mozgow80]

I was here today for the same reason xD

[@farmer16]

I was like wait i know this song for sure glad i wasnt the only one losing their mind.

[@OctopusWielder]

Literally me too just now!

[@kuronosan]

same

[@Neochrono]

This is the magnum opus of anime, this is where the industry peaked Let's reminisce about the golden bygone era

[@Teme3960]

兄がみてたからみてた、そして最終回だけ録画があったからみたらオープニングすごい好きで、そこからあらいずみさんの絵も好きになり、スレイヤーズが大好きになった！ 未だにノベル、漫画、アニメ総合して大好きなのはスレイヤーズの、リナインバースだけっ！ 「傷つく事は怖くない だけど決して強くない ただ何もしないままで 悔やんだりはしたくない」と、ここにはないけど2サビの「ゴールにももたれたりしない 例え辿り着いたって 新しい夢が私の背中押すから」の歌詞がすごいすき！！

[@texone-iy8if]

なつかしいなぁ、、、 学生時代、ガラケーのこの曲いれて聞いてた思いである、、、 もう20年近く経つのか、、、

[@にゃんま-i4m]

リナは、やっぱり最高ってか、コメント英語が沢山で、海外のが人気有るのかなｳﾆｬｯ いや、海外でも人気が有るから証拠か( =＾ω＾)ｳﾆｬｯ ま、リナ=インバース インバースが英語で逆って意味で 作者のあらいずみるい先生も、他の人と性格が真逆って意味でインバースと付けたと確か、アニメディアか何かの雑誌のインタビューで( =＾ω＾) ガキの頃に見たような

[@bandi138138]

Still the best anime opening in my opinion

[@masterjinks5369]

I personally like the first slayers opening better, but this one is the second best in the series.

[@saharudin3159]

Always has been.

[@wolfwillow112]

I like this one so much, but I have to admit that Cruel Angel Thesis is much more unique.

[@tombkings6279]

Oh my god this guy said his own opinion

[@Chapterhouse86]

100% agreed. There are many standouts like Gundam Wing, Evangelion, One Piece etc, but this one has so much nostalgia attached to it from when it first came out, it;s by far my fave.

[@あんパン-t1v]

ザレイズコラボから、この作品は全く 知らなかったけど戦闘中に流れてるこの曲 は凄く耳に残ってる。

[@shinjustice360]

テイルズかな？もうコラボ二年も前なのか

[@JhairSilvaOjeda]

Best second season of anything. Ever. Slayers might not be perfect but the second season its just so perfect that amazes.

[@free4logix]

Slayers: Next are masterpiece. good story, good music, good animation. especially when I feels the monsters energy release...

[@xynn3rx116]

They just used this song in a new anime called Genjitsu Shugi Yuusha no Oukoku Saikenki and it was great to hear it again.

[@junt6551]

It took me some times to remember it unfortunately...now that i remember it, i was filled with nostalgia

[@xa-1291]

Meanwhile anime Remake Our Life... Nanako singing karaoke songs called Sobakasu from another nostalgic anime called Rurouni Kenshin

[@Embrace-The-Dork-Side]

That's why I'm here. The nostalgia hit me and I had to hear the original again.

[@xa-1291]

The latest episode Remake Our Life, Nanako sings God Knows bring nostalgia again, never forget The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya

When this song started playing during the battle in the finale of Slayers Evolution-R, so many chills.

[@Stormkrow280]

FlowerTrollSan hell yeah, that’s generally how you can tell which opening was the favorite among the staff, like how Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood reused the second opening “Hologram” in the last episode

[@LchanOtakudom]

I LOST MY MIND WHEN I HEARD IT!!! I was like “OH SHIT!!!! GIVE A REASON!!!!!!!!!” And I sang along of course xD

[@nbm8758]

I got MAJOR goosebumps listening to this after so many years!!! Great anime, ugh, what nostalgic feelings!!

[@Aokanii]

So many years later and I can still sing along to this opening. Absolutely still one of the best anime ops ever

[@chris_29]

And they collab with my favorite game Guardian Tales! Can't wait!

[@justy93]

My favorite anime series. And back in time where the creators offered such great talent on the openings, in such a brief minute or 2 the entire storyline foreshadows there.

[@火の鳥-c5o]

やっぱスレイヤーズはこの曲だなぁ…

Me volvió a traer aquí "How a realist rebuildt a kingdom"

[@GUSRG]

Man, I was shocked, Slayers is one of my top animes ever. I was a kid when I first listened to this. To see once more this song on another anime.

[@dio9344]

heck yeah! I was looking for someone who came from realist hero

[@HighmageDerin]

@@dio9344 same, I heard this song that I haven't heard for like, what, 20 years? and it was like "I KNOW THIS SONG!" couldn't remember where it came from for a bit. but after some comments section reading it all came back:)

[@dio9344]

@@HighmageDerin Hahaha. for me, I thought it sounded kinda like Slayers op when I heard it, then my lil sis said "wait, you're not watching Slayers?" which just confirms it is indeed the opening.

[@blossomsun8]

嫌なことあって聴きにきた。めっちゃ元気出た！！ めぐ姉の曲は子どもの頃から定期的に聴きたくなる😊 自分の子どももそんな神曲に出会えると良いな。

[@elwhite83]

Part of the How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom, Episode 3 Gang I was so shocked to hear them break out this classic. Give a Reason is my favorite Slayers song. I couldn't stop grinning while she was singing it!

[@shinjustice360]

初めて見たスレイヤーズがNEXTで確か当時夏休みか冬休みか春休みかは忘れたが朝5時位から放送してて1話〜13話で終わって一年後に続きをやってた記憶がある 同じ記憶ある人居ない？

[@PeripheriAe]

An unforgettable anime. Beautiful animation and drawings. A big mysterious world. Wonderful characters. Megumi Hayashibara. Do I need to say even more?

[@daichang1204]

この曲に命を救われました。本当にいい歌詞とメロディー。

[@MsKanou-sj7gq]

スレイヤーズシリーズの中でNEXTが一番面白かった。

The sync between the music and the clips in Slayers opening are just perfect

[@Aikalukko]

Came to listen this song after this was sung by Juna Doma in Genjitsu Shugi Yuusha no Oukoku Saikenki anime in Episode 3

若い方に知ってもらえるのが嬉しいです。私は母親世代ですが、同じく中学生の頃に夢中になって視聴してました😊

[@Kermitthebadger]

I seriously feel like this is one of the best animes ever. The modern isekais somehow don't capture the magic of this at all

[@YBAC_Katomin]

FR

[@martinaguerrido7937]

No creo que sea Isekai, esto es fantasia medieval... Lina Inverse no es protagonista de que reencarnó en otro mundo, este es su mundo

[@remiremi7768]

try the manga Helck, one of the best of its genre

[@elfo7]

I thought I was the only one. People use the word underrated too much nowadays, but I truly believe this anime is underrated. It was and still is special, the characters, the plot, the comedy and don't let me get started on how cool all the spells look.

[@hafidb4934]

This anime isn't isekai

[@SunflowerMage]

I still know this opening by heart and it never fails to make me smile

[@TheFolkeen]

小さい頃この歌とスレイヤーズに感銘を受けた あれから大学生になった今でも聴いてる

[@kojikoji-i5r]

今まで何度も何度もつらいときに聞いた曲です。人生の財産となるような曲が自分の中では何個かあるのですが、間違いなくその一つになっています。 It is a song that I have listened to over and over when I'm hard. There are some songs that will be the property of life, it is definitely one of them. I would like you to listen to the full version along with lyrics.

came back here because of Genjitsu Shugi Yuusha no Oukoku Saikenki, episode 3.

i think tensura has a deelit reference before rimuru meet the elf's

[@centropen6041]

how. how did anime look better 20 years ago. just how.

[@EmmanuelB]

"Do more, cost less." Leads to an overuse of computed graphics, writing more episodes and seasons, and subcontracting non-keys episodes in china / india.

[@voiceofreason1663]

The colors looks more organic than what they use today

[@platinumhawke]

Opening sequences almost always look great. The actual episodes for Slayers look pretty cheap and terrible, even by mid-90s standards.

Oh yeah this is legit! I might have to watch this. *EDIT:* The other day I started watching Lost Universe, at the suggestion of a friend, and today I found out it was basically the sister-series of Slayers! So now I’m sure, I definitely need to watch this. I’ve completely fallen in love with this art style too, I never used to like the look of old cell animation, but I do love it now.

How to show the enemy of mid-season, the main enemy and even the way to defeat him on the opening and yet people couldn't realize it.
