Slayers TRY Treasury VOX



Ever want to hear every major Slayers TRY character try to sing? This is the CD for you! On this 10 track CD you can hear Lina, Gourry, Amelia, Zelgadis, Xellos, Filia, and even Valgaav sing their own character song. Not only that, but some songs hilariously go against their character. (Did you ever think you'd here Xellos sing about how everything is okay and you'll face the world together? Well, now's your chance!) Produced by AnimeTrax, this CD is the real deal with almost every song done in Japanese by the Japanese voice actor or actress from the series. One of my personal favorites is an upbeat song by Megumi Hayashibara (voice actress of Lina Inverse) called "Exit->Running." Only she could pull off giving four syllables to the English word "exit" with such style. Also included is a nice color booklet with a translation for each song and some pictures from the series. Unfortunately, the booklet doesn't have the romanji for any of the songs, which makes it harder to sing with, but "gives a reason" to put in an extra effort for learning Japanese. However, if you're dying to sing along, don't worry, there are two excellent songs in English (really Engrish) which are also sung by the Japanese voice actresses. Overall, I give this CD a 9/10 only because the lack of romanji and the lack of jellyfish in Gourry's song. But really, there isn't a song on this CD I don't like, so if you love Slayers, give this CD a TRY.
