>>135708 Well, IMO, I'd say if it doesn't amuse you in the first volume, the second and third probably won't get you. [Though I'll note there's a difference between the manga series "Slayers Special" (main characters--Lina, Naga) and Super Explosive Demon Story (Lina, Gourry, Zelgadis). I tend to favor the latter. And I prefer the anime over the manga--the quick pace does well for the slapstick.]
I'm a fan of the series, but also a cheapskate. I'd suggest that if you're tempted at all to give it another shot, see if you can't borrow the manga from your local library (if they don't have it, you can request that they order them in). No sense spending money for something you might not like, and others using the library will benefit from a larger selection. As for the anime, if interested, see if you can't find a friend who's a fan, at whose home you can preview it.
If you decide not to give it another try, don't worry, it's an old anime...it's rabid fanbase is smaller, and less likely to persecute. ;]
