It's been over a decade since there was a new season of "Slayers," but better late than never. "Slayers Revolution" is a solid first half to the long-awaited fourth season, although it suffers from some wobbles in execution -- not only is it fun to revisit Lina, Gourry and their colorful unruly world, but the writers introduce some clever twists and concepts along the way.
Lina and Gourry have been busy nabbing pirates on the high seas, but they're unexpectedly interrupted by Amelia, Zelgadis, and the Ruvinagald Inspector Wizer, who promptly arrests Lina for "the crime of being Lina Inverse"... and for blowing up some magic tanks with the Dragonslave.
The actual culprit is actually a sort of... flying stuffed bunny thing called Pokota, who can cast almost every spell Lina knows AND has a Sword of Light replica. The gang ends up on the road again, pursuing Pokota and being dogged by Wizer. Of course, they come across new problems on the way -- kidnapped pets, a golem festival, assassins on a ship, and Wizer's attempts to trap Lina in a building full of booby-traps (such as "do not push" buttons).
Pokota also leads the gang into the presumed-lost Taforashia, a ruined city shrouded in mist whose inhabitants are locked in a magical suspended animation... courtesy of the infamous Red Priest Rezo. Unfortunately, a corrupt Ruvinagald marquess and her servants (a ninja, a clockwork robot, and a beastman) are using Taforashia's magical technology to gain power -- and when Lina and her friends try to stop the marquess, a devastating evil is unleashed that could destroy the entire world.
It's a pretty awesome feeling to see the "Slayers" cast in action again, like revisiting old friends whom you haven't seen for a long time. The first few episodes of "Slayers Revolution" are rather weak (seriously, a stuffed toy that can cast the Dragonslave?), only to gain their footing when the Taforashia storyline is woven in. You know what to expect: lots of explosions, arguments, Lina and Gourry gobbling down feasts, and Amelia attacking in the name of justice.
As usual, there's a string of standalone stories interwoven with a solid plot arc, which harkens back to the first season of "Slayers", involving a kingdom locked in a magical barrier, and an elaborate web of lies that lead to a monster being unleashed on the world. There's plenty of hilarious dialogue ("I think it might be edible!"), a hearty dose of comic relief (Gourry's special bond with a jellyfish chimera), and lots of explosive action. The finale is utterly thrilling -- a dramatic three-episode eruption of smashing stones, Dragonslaves, energy blasts, and a giant silver dragon-dog-thing that craves destruction.
Lina is still flat-chested, assertive, hypersensitive and wonderfully bombastic -- and in this one, she encounters someone as crazy and magically-skilled as she is. Gourry is struggling to fight bad guys without a sword that can withstand his strength, Zelgadis has mellowed out somewhat, and Amelia has to grapple with a shocking discovery about her kingdom. And Xellos.... is Xellos. As usual, he's got secrets.And it's worth noting that Funimation (bless 'em) is reuniting almost the entire cast -- Lisa Ortiz, Eric Stuart, Veronica Taylor, and Crispin Freeman. The one change is Michael Sinterklaas as Xellos.
Additionally, Pokota is kind of annoying but gradually becomes likable as we see what drives him, and the tragic past he's trying to correct, while Duclis is the figure of a noble man corrupted by hatred. Wizer seems like an idiot who constantly tries to arrest Lina and impress the ladies, but soon you find that he's almost scarily clever and manipulative. Flan and Zollan are pretty boring, though.
It's not quite revolutionary, but after a bumpy first few episodes "Slayers Revolution" charges along like a runaway magical tank -- and of course, it leaves plot threads dangling for the next half of the season.
Lina’s on the run from a government inspector who’s ready to put her away for good. Her crime? Just being herself! The guy’s hot on her tail, but a tiny creature that actually has a tail might be Lina’s biggest problem. Pokota’s a powerful little furball, and his path of destruction is getting pinned on Lina. With so much explosive magic between them, you know things will go boom when they face off. But there’s more to Pokota than anyone knows, and if Lina’s gang can get to the bottom of his habit of blowing stuff up, they could end up with an awesome new ally.

I have read virtually all of Stephen King's art (except for 3 or 4). That is the key reason why I luv Lost (his work). All of his Constant Readers know this very well. ;)

I delayed purchasing this title on Blu-ray for two reasons - waiting to see if it would be released in the UK as a region B or region free issue and concern about the many reviews criticising the video and sound quality.
In the end, I gave up waiting for a UK release and chose to ignore the negative reviews and judge for myself.
All I can say is that both video and sound quality are very good. I can only assume that those who criticise this Blu-ray title either have deficiencies with their home cinema equipment or have very unrealistic expectations.
Using a Pioneer BDP-LX71 Blu-ray player connected to a Pioneer PDP-LX5090 50 inch 1080p plasma the picture is sharp, with excellent black depth and detail. Grain was very rarely visible and the whole transfer is impressive when compared to the DVD release which I also have. It's widescreen too. The picture is more grainy than some of the best Blu-ray releases when paused however.
With the HD soundtrack playing through a Dali Helicon 5 channel speaker set-up via Primare electronics, I never thought it was anything other than excellent. I never noticed the problem of unclear voices reported by some others.
Another notable plus is the packaging. The five discs, all of which are easily individually accessible, are accommodated within a standard size and thickness Blu-ray case. Why can't all box sets be packaged this way?
The one big negative is the advertisement for the Star Trek Blu-ray release at the start of the first disc - this appears to disable all player transport functions to defeat any attempt to skip or fast forward through it. Extremely annoying!
AND.....WHY IS IT REGION CODED AND NOT REGION FREE???? I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW THE JUSTIFICATION.

From the first episode of LOST I was hooked. The cliffhanger kept me begging for more. That's a drive that is still going strong waiting for the final season this January. The first season is my favorite just because there is so much mystery. Nothing is known of these characters when they crash, but you quickly bond with them and began to understand what makes them tick. There are flashbacks in every episode that helps fill in the backstory of each character. The island is a mystery that you and the survivors attempt to figure out. There are tons of plot twists and mysteries to keep you on the edge of your seat. LOST is filled with mystery, drama, comedy, and suspense. There are tons of characters that help develope the plot. As they try to investigate the island you attempt to figure them out. LOST is the best show on TV. The writting never stops to amaze and shock you. The cast never misses a beat either. They are on top of their game at all times. If you haven't seen LOST pick this blu ray up today you won't be disappointed. This show stabs you in the jugular and doesn't let go.
Also the blu ray looks amazing. LOST is shot digitally and is the best looking show on Blu Ray. I had the first season prior to this on DVD, and I still am going to pick up the entire series on Blu Ray next year. This is a great series that has the best writting staff and cast on TV. Don't miss this saga. Every adventure has a beginning don't miss it.
