After an absence of several years, klutzy sorceress Lina Inverse and her nutty friends are back on TV: "Slayers Revolution" (2008) more or less picks up where the third season of "Slayers" left off in 1997. Inspector Wizer of the Kingdom of Ruvinagald wants to arrest Lina--for the heinous crime of being Lina Inverse! He's convinced she's responsible for destroying the magic biomorphic tanks that evil Marquess Giocanda hopes to sell to neighboring realms. He's so sure Lina is guilty, he keeps arresting her--even after he sees someone else wreck the tanks. The agent of destruction is Pokota, a diminutive magical creature who looks like an off-model Pokémon. Fighting Wizer and Pokota keeps Lina busy, but she's assisted and impeded by her usual sidekicks: terminally dim swordsman Gourry, chimera Zelgadis, and single-minded advocate of justice Amelia. As Lina and the gang stumble from place to place, director Takashi Watanabe abruptly shifts the tone from slapstick comedy to mawkish sentiment to apocalyptic threat and back. The rambling story provides plenty of pratfalls, magical spells, enormous meals, jokes about Lina's flat chest, and absurd dialogue delivered at top volume: everything fans want and expect from a "Slayers" adventure. "Revolution" reunites voice actors Lisa Ortiz (Lina), Eric Stuart (Gourry), Crispin Freeman (Zelgadis), and Veronica Taylor (Amelia), all of whom return effortlessly to their characters. The animation and dialogue over the credits for episode 13 stress that several major plot points in "Slayers Revolution" remain unresolved, so Lina's many fans can probably expect a fifth season before too long. (Not rated: suitable for ages 13 and older for cartoon violence, occasional profanity and risqué humor) "--Charles Solomon"
