** The build up of Lina and Gourry's relationship to that point too. At the halfway point of the season, after Lina fakes her death to get the jump on their enemy, Gourry bops her on the head and scolds her about thinking about his feelings next time she does something like that. Instead of getting mad or retaliating like she would usually do, Lina just blushes and apologizes.

** While all of the season finales' ending songs qualify to some degree, the credits sequence for ''Slayers Try'' really hits squarely. Scenes of [[spoiler:Filia dedicating herself to the redemption of both her race and Val by raising him as her son in a quaint antique shop]], Amelia momentarily halting her work to gaze wistfully out her palace window, faraway questing Zelgadiss as he sips from a canteen with Amelia's keepsake tied around it, and Lina together with Gouury play out, all as Filia's VA sings the beautiful ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njQiijj8Zno&feature=related Somewhere]]''.

*** And then five episodes later, there is some more ship teasing between the two, with Lina clinging to Gourry when she gets scared (and then shoving him aside) and Auntie Aqua asking if there's anything going on between the two of them. It culminates when Lina and Gourry have a quiet moment alone by the fire and we get this dialogue:
---> '''Lina''': So uh, Gourry, we've been traveling together for a long time now, haven't we?
---> '''Gourry''': Oh, has it been that long?
---> '''Lina''': Well, you know, it just...it just seems so natural to think of you being with me...
---> '''Gourry''': Well Lina, I am your protector after all.
---> '''Lina''': So then, how long do you plan on protecting me?
---> '''Gourry''': I don't know. The rest of my life?
---> '''Lina''': *cue [[LuminescentBlush Lina's face turning downright crimson]].*
