Hey, Anime Fans!

Have you ever watched any of Dirty Pair? And if so, what did you think?

-The Gneech, looking for some good anime action comedy

May I reccomend "The Melancholoy of Haruhi Suzumiya?"

The original Dirty Pair, and the OVA's that go with it are pretty good, the animation quality is patchy but the stories and humour entertained me anyway. The Dirty Pair Flash remake has better quality animation but the stories aren't quite as good, but still ok.

They're good enough for me to still occasionally dust off and watch my copies anyway.

My college roommate loved it. He was a lot more into the boobiefest (shocker) and big-mechs-'n'-guns anime than I was (I'm more the comedy/romance sort), if that makes a difference. I think he was the Robotech type fan.

So I only saw the original series once a long time ago, and I can say it was entertaining enough, just not my thang.

Wasn't that the original "where do they store those guns" anime?

What I remember is very high speed violence.
Any building you might see the inside of, will be distroyed by the end of the episode.
Cars, boats, airplanes, clothes/costumes, macguffins, allies; none stand a good chance of survival.

Great actiony series, had fun watching it myself :D
I loved the total destruction ensued on them trying to fix a problem

I have read some of the books (Biohazard and Dangerous Acquaintances) and I thought they were bloody great! And that is coming from someone who, on the whole, loathes anime/manga!

Have you ever seen "Dokkider?" It's a great mix of the "power suit" and "apartment house" genres.

I have some of the original Dirty Pair episodes on tape if you want them. A while ago, I use to be a big fan of the original series, and of the American Manga series. The Flash series is okay.

Original Recipe Dirty Pair is brilliant.

Flash is crap.
