| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I was expecting to really like this after so much I've heard about dirty pair but ended up extremely disappointed. The story was convoluted, meandering, and went no where and much of the OVA felt like filler. I hope this is just a bad introduction and the other Dirty Pair stuff I encounter isn't this bad. |

| After the beginning led me to think this OAV would explore an interesting element left behind by the TV adaptation (ESP) and give up a bit on its childish aspect (the very roundish 80s charadesign, Mughi's mascot status), it only wandered for 10-20minutes, thus spoiling a potentially useful run time, and only the "revelation" and the action sequence (a big chase) seemed satisfying to me. While the compromise between the TV redesign and Yasuhiko's realistic or more serious original design is good (I prefer this to the iconic TV style), the drawings in-OAV were not particularly good: faces often leftna lot to desire. For an hour-long OAV, it overall didn't look as good as it should have. Musics (including ending) were nothing remarkable. Enjoyment: 3/5 Score: 5/10 The Terminator element was of much better effect than in one of the unaired TV episodes. |
| Underwhelming OVA. Didn't like the story at all and the change in art design was a refreshing look at first but it wasn't particularly great and I think I prefer the TV style more. Don't really know what to say about this thing, it was weird and abit boring at times. I just never got into it. Also yet another Terminator reference, that's 2 in the last 3 Dirty Pair 'episodes' I've watched lol. |
| Nozomi put this out in a collection with Project Eden and watching this after was underwhelming to say the least. It's clearly a work of a different scope, but even approaching it as an OVA instead of a film, it still feels long, boring, convoluted, and mediocre. If you're looking to get into Dirty Pair I would not start here. BlaizeV said: Also yet another Terminator reference, that's 2 in the last 3 Dirty Pair 'episodes' I've watched lol. I miss the days when all anime was either a reference to Blade Runner, Flashdance, or The Terminator |
| Dumb plot and an abrupt ending, less comedy oriented as well which is a negative here. 5/10, underwhelming after the TV show. |
| loved the character design polish and we also got to see nipples, the tentacle scene with yuri was peak 8/10 |
