| Lost Universe Relation |
| For anyone who've heard that Lost Universe has something to do with Slayers, but has no idea what, read on! ^_^ Basically, the anime takes place in another of the four worlds that the Lord of Nightmares had created, the world where Darkstar and Volpheed fought. Unlike the medieval-like setting of Slayers, however, Lost Universe takes place in the future, complete with spaceships, etc. A lot of the Lost Universe characters bear some resemblance to the Slayers characters. For example, the main character, Kain, appears to have exactly the same shade of hair color as Lina. Some people say that Lost Universe is in an alternate dimension of the world that Darkstar and Volpheed had fought, but I'm not sure about that. Another relation to Slayers information is the names of the ships. Three ships are called Goru Nova, Razud Mezegis, and Nezzard, named after the Darkstar weapons. There are 5 lost ships, however, so I assume the other two are called Bodigar and Galvayra, the other two weapons. Apparently, Kain's personality is similar to Lina's as well; if all the information aforementioned is correct, he's possibly a descendant of Lina's in another world, in a parallel dimension. O_O Since the characters in Lost Universe are not all dead from when Darkstar destroyed everything (according to the storyline of Slayers), I would assume that if this isn't a parallel existence, life had just completely healed up over time after Lina's victory. By the way, Lost Universe's story WAS thought up by Slayers's creator, and the same animators made it, so check it out if you want! |
