Slayers eps 10-18
Lina, Gourry and Zelgadis whup Rezo's butt and the universe is saved. This time around. As soon as that's done with, Zelgadis remembers that he's the emo angsty loner and flees before he finds himself having friends that could ruin the image. He claims it's because his appearance makes it impossible for him to be in towns and such, but I know better. This was the end of episode 10 and he had the poor manners to not show up again until the end of ep 18. I was displeased by that.
Meanwhile, Lina and Gourry found themselves acquiring Amelia, a young sorceress in training with a serious case of hero worship for Lina...when she isn't try to arrest Lina. Amelia is clumsy beyond words and is obsessed with justice. I'd say she out-Miakas Miaka in everything but uselessness(despite the clumsiness and rabid justice seeking, Amelia is rather useful and a decent sorceress...and she learns), yet I find myself somewhat fond of her...she equal parts amuses me and makes me want to strangle her.
Soon after acquiring Amelia, Lina and Gourry learn that they and Zelgadis have been framed for crimes in some far off city. This causes Amelia to think they are Evil and must be Destroyed, but she eventually sees reason. Most of the episodes are the three on the road, having a series of adventures, starving to death in the woods and constantly being attacked by bounty hunters and do gooders who think they're evil. Aside from the Unfortunate Genre Requisite Crossdressing Episode, it was all quite fun(and even that was fun aside from the fact that I just cannot find poor Gourry being forced to dress like a girl and being chased by a guy-sobbing and protesting the whole time-to be funny.)
In the city, they learn that a woman named Eris is the one who framed them from some random girl in love with Gourry. Lina doesn't react well to her. Later, they learn Rezo is alive and have their butts saved by Zelgadis, who attempts to compensate for his long absence with self-depreciating emo.
I have a Deep Weakness for MVs with this song, and this has pretty good cutting:
Note: I'm not hiding spoilers because, as far as I know, everyone on the f-list with any plans for watching the show already has, and I don't consider it to be a spoiler-type show. If anyone wants me to hide spoilers, though, let me know(though, obviously, it'll mostly be for the other seasons once I get to them.)
