Awesome car chase. Finally the OVA feels like an adaptation of the manga, because car chases were a big highlight of that.

Minnie-may still grates, as unlike the manga she looks like a freakin' 10 year old.

Definitely one of anime's best car chases though methinks.

Yea, this anime is fun!!! The first ep was decent, but this ep was freakin awesome!! Just like the manga, she straight balanced the clip on her foot, then kicked it up to her hand, but in the manga, she kicks it up into her gun, but still awesome to see it animated, The chase was nice to, seemed like I was watching an American Live-action show or movie, very nicely done...Urahrara Out!!

May redeems by having a great mischievous grin. The action in this did kick total ass, I'm expecting the super-assassin somehow survived though...

(did anyone else freeze-frame in the first ep to see what website he was visiting? glad it was sort of relevant!)

Did anybody else notice the license plate on Rally's car was BDR529?

I love that detail.

That russian killer was ridiculous.
A bulletproof cape that magically negates all the force of a bulletimpact on your shoulder?

I am no expert, but that looked fishy.

And the ATF guys heard / saw that an intruder was coming, yet they didn't even draw their guns? And then they called that a safehouse, haha.

Would've been cool if Natasha spoke Russian the whole episode. She was like a mix of Bean and Riff-Raff. Though her name wasn't even pronounced once x) Glad she didn't shoot May because her portable weapon was surely capable of that.

Rally's birthday here is 1974, which makes sense if the OVA takes place in 1995, which is plausible given the involvement of Gray's weapon in ep. 1 and the production date of the OVA (makes L/Rally (yes she took the name of her father, apparently, though I'm not sure if his full name appears in the manga) 21 in the police documents, but she's canonically 19, therefore her birthday is 1976), but Dark Horse manga ch. 75 messed everything up by setting the dead girl's age as 20, while the original Japanese manga said 17. Also Rally has her birthday in May. Cute.

Rally's GT has "Slielby" on the front lol. Funny mistake. By the way, I imagined her skin to be darker from the manga, honestly. Sometimes it's just like May's (though it's more of a color/lighting issue, or my eyes).

BDR529

Yep, and Illinois.

P.S. Trashing the door with a knife was definitely a movie reference lol. She should've aimed for the doorlock though.

This one was an interesting episode. Liked the new antag but her Russian side wasn't all that oof.

But nice follow up with typical car chase scene which was p bs as well, but again, what could I expect lol. I mean, it was still very fun tho, can't lie. Ending fly into the water was epic too.

The animation for the car chase was amazing. So much sakuga!

Is it just me who finds this new antagonist very, VERY, attractive? Guess I'm just super fucking gay

What an amazing car chase sequence! This show has so much packed into it, and the animations are beautiful. It's a shame that most anime these days doesn't have the same kind of soul that the 80s and 90s anime did.

This episode is less good since they don't really set up anything, we know nothing about the villain, or the poor guy who got killed even tho they had the perfect opportunity to set him up in the previous episode, their relationship with the main guy seems to be getting worse actually, so overall pretty meh episode, it seems the main draw of the show is just the "pew pew", but there are no stakes since they just remind you that they'll be fine immediately, like them playing music while their friend is inches away from death, overall not a bad gunfighting anime but there isn't much of a reason to like it beyond that...
