Slayers (1995)

In the mystic realm of swords and sorcery, a journey of epic proportions unfolds. A teenage mage, notorious for her unparalleled power and deceptive grace, Lina Inverse, finds herself thrust into an adventure that threatens not only her world but also that of a distant alien named Hellmaze. Lina, a whimsically destructive force with an irresistible affinity for collateral damage, gluttony, and gold, is far from your typical heroine. Accompanied by her loyal companions, including Gourry Gabriev, a brawny swordsman whose formidable strength is matched only by his endearing lack of intellect, Lina is propelled from her quest for riches into a race against time to save the world. Their journey takes them to a distant island, where they encounter a dragon priestess, their ambiguous ally, Xellos, and a rogue's gallery of peculiar foes, ranging from a dynamite-wielding bandit to a hybrid demon-dragon. As they navigate these perils, a more ominous threat looms over Hellmaze's world, a malevolent force known as the Darkstar, leaving a trail of annihilation in its wake. The fate of his world and Lina's intricately intertwine, with the potential salvation of one possibly necessitating the sacrifice of the other. The key to this cosmic puzzle may lie in Gourry's enigmatic sword of light, shining a beacon of hope amid the encroaching darkness. As Lina and her friends grapple with these colossal stakes, "Slayers" serves up a potent brew of adventure, humor and fantasy, charting the misadventures of an unlikely mage and her motley crew as they stumble upon more than just gold in their tumultuous journey.
