ATTENTION: This site is no longer being updated. Please
do not send any notifications of mistakes, corrections, or omissions,
as these will be ignored. Thanks!
This site includes contributions from several people, so please
check the page
you were just at to see if it has an author. If not,
it's probably Xelloss. ^_^
Site maintainers:
In response to the number of e-mail messages about the site,
I ask that you please breeze through this list of common
complaints:
- I don't know magic.
- From now on, anyone who e-mails me wanting to know
how to put a curse on someone in real life will have their
e-mail posted on this site for all to see. I don't know
any kind of magic in real life, and I figured the page-long
disclaimer to that point on the magic page would be indication
enough, but I still manage to get e-mails
about it somehow, so from now on, if you skip this disclaimer, everyone'll
know it. ^_^
- You misspelled so-and-so and such-and-such.
- A lot of times, I stick with the spelling I feel
looks the best and accurately represents the intentions of
the author. This leads to Amelia, when the Japanese spelled
it Ameria, and Zelgadiss, when the Americans spell it
Zelgadis. The long and short of it is - if you don't like the
way we spell something, spell it however you want, but we're not
going to change it.
- The spell chant is wrong.
- This is an extension of the above. If the professional subtitlers
can't use the same translation of a spell from episode to episode, I can't
be expected to include all of them either. :) If there are glaring problems
with the particular translation, feel free to say so, but if it's just a different
way of saying the same thing, it's not going to get changed.
- Can you make a copy of (fill in the blank) for me?
- Not right now. I don't have very good VCR's, and my copies of Slayers
are even worse quality, usually ^^;
- When are you going to update the site?
- The answer to this question will always be some permutation of "later,"
no matter how nicely you ask. All of us working on the site are currently
mired in classwork, which means that site updates should be considered a
blessing rather than an apology for slackness. Now, if we got paid to
do this, that would be an entirely different matter. This doesn't mean
we're not open to specific requests for updates, though. ^^
Is there/will there be a new/fourth season of Slayers?
No. There might be later, but if we EVER find news of this, it'll
be spraypainted all over the site. Really. :)
Is there anything I can email you about?
No.
Seriously, if you want to write an email that doesn't fall into
any of the above categories, go ahead and ask, but the site
will not be updated any more. If it does get updated,
well, it's a fluke, or something was glaringly wrong.
Known in real life as Andre Germain, Xelloss is the primary
site maintainer. Whereas before, he wrote most of the material
himself, the job has now been delegated to several other people
as well. Andre's personal site is also hosted at
Maison Otaku, at
http://www.maison-otaku.net/~xelloss/.
ATTENTION: Please read the disclaimer before emailing.
Again, this site is no longer being updated, so please don't send anything
telling me something's missing. E-mail all other inquiries to
slayersuniverse@hotmail.com
. Thanks!
(For questions not pertaining to the novels, please contact Xelloss instead.)
Yuu-chan's got all the Slayers novels and has graciously volunteered to
write plot synopses for those of us who don't know Japanese quite so well!
He's also been providing background information on the more subtle aspects
of Slayers which aren't expounded on in the anime.
(For questions not pertaining to the novels, please contact Xelloss instead.)
Lina had been helping out with the site as well, specifically in the areas
of summaries and keeping me (Xel) straight on the little quirks and nuances
of the magic. Lina, another Maison Otaku member, is the one who registered
the www.inverse.org sitename for us! Lina's website is
http://lina.inverse.org, appropriately
enough, and can be reached via email at
lina@inverse.org.
