It has to be Megumi doing Lina's voice anyone else would just be wrong. Well unless they found someone who could mimic her perfectly...

At least three major anime publications (all of them with pretty high credentials like the Dragon magazine which is ALL about Kanzaka/Slayers stuff) are on it, so it is pretty much a done deal at this point. That and Megumi herself has hinted it for a while too.

Also, the news basically states an original story, so I'm hoping it is some sort of a hybrid of the official novels and original material (like how some of the first three seasons were).

As for the old cast, I think that is basically a done deal. Original Slayers material + Megumi = all the rest including at least Gourry, Zelgadis and Amelia.

I'm only worried about Amelia's seiyuu returning since she wasn't terribly active in recent years. Compared to the crazy amount of material the Gourry and Zelgadis seiyuus have been involved in.

Ironically, I liked season 3 the best followed by 1 and 2. This is however great news - I remember watching the cantonese dub on TV as a kid and taking 6 months to obtain the 3 seasons of Japanese original!

Dragon Slave indeed.

Probably the best news in quite a while. One of my favorite anime back then before I was dragged into the influence of moe (something I shouldn’t be ashamed of ). Anyway, hopefully we can have more Slayers by 2009 at the latest.

Guess Japan needs to revive franchises from the 90s' because the new generation of anime falls on fanservice or moe. I watched the first season and only half of NEXT back in the late 90s. Guess the fourth season will be a hybrid of canon and original material then? What are they going to call the new season? We got the Slayers, Slayers Next, and Slayers Try as the first three seasons.

I'm pretty sure that's what it was going to be called, back in... 1999.

That was the biggest tease since Zeta Princess Nine. Of course, P9 being way more obscure compared to Slayers in comparison.

More from HeiseiDemocracy

So basically, just about all the seiyuus return including the director, the animation team and the writer himself who did all three seasons.

You can't get any more loyal to the original source material than this. Compare this to the insane overhaul Gunslinger Girls Teatrino has gotten with just about everyone being swapped out.

Not only is this news awesome, but it's incredible that just about everyone in the old cast and production is making a comeback. Including the staff that worked on it. This just sounds so ridiculous to me, I'm still in a bit of a daze right now.

Here's my question about the return of the director, seiryuu, and the production team. Will this series be able to stand against other anime titles coming out when the new season of Slayers will be released? I hope they can update their animation as it seems to be outdated if they used the same techniques as the other three series. Slayers was such a hit back in the 90s, but we're not sure if it will be successful as the original audience has already grow up and are busy with their lives. Let's hope the new audience will enjoy the new Slayers series. If it is indeed an original series, then they should just introduce back Naga since all she did recently was a cameo in Premium. Don't forget about Luna Inverse as well because all they just show are pictures of her as a waitress n Next and Try. She would make Gourry and Zelgadis look like nothing before her swordsmanship, plus she would always glare at Lina for trying to do something behind her back.

I want to see Sylphiel so bad. I agree that it'd be nice to see Luna and Naga, though I don't think the novels follow that path yet.

Can you imagine? Another trilogy of Slayers seasons? That'd be pretty insane. In a good way of course.
