There are serious issues with Okama Report. Its exterior is kind of generic and predictable. The jokes aren't really all that funny. The art isn't particularly good or interesting.

What's good about Okama Report is the protagonist and the themes the manga explores. I can easily see someone being frustrated or bored with the cliche back and forth of misunderstanding, slapstick, and repeated jokes, but really, this manga does something special.
The ups and downs of the protagonists psyche and outlook and the overall progression is really something. For what I would call a lazy comedy manga there's a lot of depth to its main cast. I'd ... suggest you try it out.

A gender-bender which explores narcissism, the nuances of sexuality, general bigotry & homophobia, and more.

Dirty Pair (Lovely Angels -- sorry!) is one of those series where each episode is its own standalone story and whilst there are sometimes recurring characters (aside from the main cast), they haven't formed together as part of a larger narrative/story as of episode 17. So if you hate (or love) those as much as I do, factor that in.
Whilst episode seems to explore something new and different, they're never pushing the envelope. Though occasionally, they hit. Just don't think too much about it and let it happen when it does.

Basically, Lovely Angels is very mediocre. It never really takes itself seriously and for good ... reason: the plots are predictable most of the time, the jokes are, the action, and a lot of the characters are seemingly very shallow. This isn't meant to be anything more than cheap entertainment.

This kind of show isn't usually for me; however, around episode 7, and maybe this is just around the time I started paying attention or maybe this episode and its silliness /shocked/ me into paying attention, but around episode 7, Lovely Angels became somewhat of a guilty pleasure. In episode 7, many people are fired into space, and it's done so completely earnestly.
Did the show really become better after that point, or did a couple good moments cloud my judgment? Probably the latter, so I'd avoid it if I were you, but check it out briefly so you can see people's sons, girlfriends, fathers and, yes, secretaries being sent into space one after the other, or, if not for that, then check it out it for my favourite openings.
