Episode 1:
Not bad for the opening song. Orphen has a personality that I hope I can get used to. They introduced the idea of magic and didn't hold back on some of the fighting scenes in the first episode. Cleao Everlasting is also introduced and she has a tomboyish-like personality. Pretty much an introductory episode but it has my interest somewhat for now. I haven't seen the original series either so coming into this anime fresh.

I never finished the original series and don't remember much of what I saw back then. After watching the 1st episode, I think I'll have a better chance of sticking to the end with this version. Maybe when the dub starts up, I'll get my husband to give it a try as well.

I have feeling few things got changed from first anime. Then again I didn't read novel so I can't say which one is more faithfull anyway. Either way it was good start, even if not best one ever.
Just hope that if we get past this arc, it will not turn into gag show like first anime. That was quite cringy.

Mother of nostalgia. It's obvious they wanted the reboot to reintroduce every major character at the same time. I mean, Azari's identity was first revealed in the third episode alongside Orphen's past when he had that long name. The animation is nice but I don't know if I can get used to this Bloody August dragon. While it sure has the same premise, the pilot episode sure tried making it more lighthearted while the narrative this time focuses more on Orphen than on Cleo back in the 90s. I like the opening song and it kinda reminds me those Persona games. I won't comment more in the case I spoil something accidentally.

This is the opinion of someone that didn't watch the original, only the OP so take it like you want but I think I was right. Old school anime desings translate like shit in current animation. For this like this is that I never ever want another season of Slayers, remembering the lackluster that the last ones were. The only solution I can think for this is remade the designs to the current anime style. Good this is internet as I probably would be beat up for this if not, but that is what I think.
