Hey /a/, I was just researching Native Protoisekai for my doctorate when I came across this little neglected gem.

Anyone ever heard of this? Apparently it was only a limited local release in Hokkaido region, never a general Japan release let alone international, but I've identified several isekai traits just from the first few episodes. Who knew?

 No.867812

Judging by the art style, it looks like you're going to have to search through geocite archives just to learn more.

Lina Inverse is a character in the popular game Defence of the Ancients, better known as DotA. Perhaps the character has isekai'd from the DotA world into the anime fantasy one.

This thing was my childhood, my favorite show. I was going to make an enthusiastic post about it but then I realized this is an ironic thread. Did the main story for this ever end? Which series is worth watching? I can only vouch for Slayers, NEXT, and TRY.

I managed to track down a russian fansub release in 480 x 360. It ran for 12 episodes and ends on a cliffhanger. It was interesting, I suppose.

That explains why the blonde bishounen, Gary, is the protagonist. I think he would have been a more interesting protagonist if the plot didn't revolve around him overcoming his crossdressing fetish and focused more on monster slaying.

I'm trying to find a certain moment from an anime and I think it's from this show. It's one where the red haired girl gets injured and I can remember a lot of blood pouring down some rocks.

I've been trying to find this thing for some 4 years now, anyone know anything?

Yes, it's this. I'm not sure if it technically counts as the 1st season or the 2nd season after the Shabranigdo fight, but it's original Slayers episode 24. Lina tries to cast a world-ending spell to stop clone Rezo. She gets stopped and then Rezo fucks her up.

No, it's a shitty halfchan meme. Please ignore OP.

https://boards.fireden.net/a/search/text/Native%20Isekai/type/op/

The whole meme is to force the notion that RPG based Fantasy stories are virtually like Isekai, but without any transportation which is actually the only thing required to make a story Isekai.

Inuyasha doesn't count, that's just a regular isekai.

It's all worth, none of it is incredibly amazing but it's what's on the package. Haven't seen anything with the same atmosphere unless you count Those Who Hunt Elves.

>This thread is an ironic thread

This made me very sad too. I love Slayers.

There is a shit ton of movies ovas and even random as fuck multiple shot arc mangoos that all follow the same continuity*, at least, sort of does. They all follow close the the light novels, except in some cases, Lina and Gourry are suppose to have changing party members, but media that adapt certain parts of the light novels will replace them with second best girl Amelia Wil Tesla Saillune, and Zelgadiss.

Naga is best girl.

I recommend you should try watching Slayers Great, its pretty great maybe even Gorgeous.

I want Naga to put her mouth on my ears and softly laugh me to sleep.

Gourry is a sword attached to a stomach.


 No.870944

>>870913

Gourry is a level 20 Fighter in a campaign everyone else is a level 20 Wizard, Sorcerer, Cleric, or high ranking caster.

Not only that but also has to deal with that one power gaming jerkass that just had to have damage reduction for his build and found that one splat book with a long ass title and 50 cents art work with a base class thats just Druid but better. Like druids needed any help. If its the emo chimera bitching about his Otaku Uncle and his series of ambushes and booby traps, crazy kleptomaniac and enemy of all living things sorcerer getting the party in trouble again, or that lawful good justice going on about judgment fueled adventures, its probably gonna be his laser sword getting stolen for the 15th time. Its the only thing get has! So of course theres a spell that gives you one kind of like it, and of course the sorcerer knows it, not that Chimera man needs it. He already has a kick ass strength bonuses and a better tank then Gourry will ever be, and he still can cast spells like fly. He just started wasting feats on stupid crap like firearms. No inclination there was going to be guns in his campaign, just wrote it in there, but who needs a sword, just cast magic on your fist and smite evil in the face. Just punches it with her bare hands. Works just as good!

Gourry's player stopped giving a fuck ages ago.

>This isn’t completely accurate to fighters at high level campaigns.

He should have stuck to goblin slaying.
