Schlocky humor and so-so animation are the primary features of the first volume of this quest series which pokes fun at the genre. In the opening episodes, Lina Inverness, a fireball-throwing sorceress meets up with Gourry, a handsome mercenary, and the pair trade lame one-liners on the road to fighting the evil Zelgadis. Ho-hum. Not recommended. Aud: P. (R. Pitman)
