>be the most powerful being in the world besides the greater demons and maybe Luna Inverse.
>be tasked with the destroying the world and be evil, but kinda like it here so end up sneakily sabotaging other demons
>to the point of risking his own life, like when you see him making excuses in front of Xelass Metallium at the end of Try, knowing she can destroy him instantly
Xeloss is the hero we need

Calm down, Frieren.

He did kiss his fingertip and then pressed it to Lina's lips, once. She freaked out. Diabolical.

I thought he was a girl as kid,still would

What was the name of the Slayers manga that had the generic shounen hero joining the party, replacing Zel?
I always wanted to see that get adapted into an anime.
>>
>>285737227
I think that happens in the LNs as well, the only mainstays are Lina and Gourry. I dropped them after the Fibrizzo arc because, honestly, they're not very good.
I might buckle down and go back one day, just to see how the story continues.

>>285732883
I want to be Fibrizo and rawdog Naga
>>
>>285730969
No!
Wasn't a sojo series and faggotry wasn't tolerated then.
Good times.....

As much as I have nostalgia for the time before the shitty soulless notReash
Slayers was kind of low grad fantasy.

Todays we get absolutely pathetic male self-insert who have no characteristic beyond have a harem and be OP.
But Lina Inverse was a grossly overpowered "mage" capable of holding her own with a sword or even fist fight.
Her boyfriend is dumb muscle that only shine by his strength and a magic sword
The plot and setting was less consistent than the average Pratchett story and the jokes are honestly childish even as a teenager.

Still,
I long for adventuring with a casting like >>285736258 where each character feels unique, would be interesting/funny enough to hold story on his own, and isn't solely made to make the MC look good.
>>
>>285738121
My nigga...
The Slayers came out during a time period when futa and DG doujins were at an all time high.
>>
What was his goal again?
>>
>>285741198
have fun
>>
>>285731938
No, Xeloss is still pretty fucking evil (he literally has to feed off misery to persist). He just likes the world existing over the Mazoku's goal of destroying it.
>>
>>285731761
I always interpreted as they still want to destroy the world, they just acknowledge Lina is useful to have around to clean up renegade demons and are willing to wait a century or so until she dies of natural causes

That's the point. It's you usual irregular group of murderhobos, some with a moral compass, doing adventures and getting involved in the fate of the world.
