Slayers
Slayers is one of the highest selling Light Novels of all time. With this success the light novel spawned numerous adaptations. The series was immensly popular in the 90s but had a resurgence in the 2000s with two more TV adaptations releasing.
Synopsis
Lina Inverse, a wandering sorceress and bandit-killer, joins forces with roving swordsman Gourry Gabriev in what's supposed to be a quick union of convenience. Instead, an artifact Lina "liberated" from a gang of thieves turns out to be the key to the resurrection of the demon lord Shabranigdo. Urged on by the mysterious Red Priest Rezo, the pair has no choice but to fight the dark lord and his servants, accumulating new allies and enemies along the way. (Source: Anime News Network)
