Slayers - S01

The powerful and greedy sorceress Lina Inverse roams the world, stealing treasure from bandits who get in her way. Her latest targets, a group of thieves, lie in wait in a forest, eager for revenge. Just as Lina is about to easily crush her would-be attackers, the swordsman Gourry Gabriev suddenly makes himself known. Thinking Lina is a damsel in distress, this foolish but kindhearted man takes on the brigands to save her. After quickly defeating them, the clueless cavalier decides to escort Lina to Atlas City. She is not too keen on the idea, but she ends up accepting his offer. However, without knowing it, Lina has come across a mighty magical item among her recent loot. Now two mysterious men are hunting the young magician and her self-proclaimed guardian to get this powerful object for seemingly wicked reasons. Thus they begin their adventure, one where the fate of the world itself may be at stake.
