S5E10 - DIRTY PAIR Review: The Outrageous Original 1985 Series by Sunrise

S5E10 - DIRTY PAIR Review: The Outrageous Original 1985 Series by Sunrise

Our Grand Tour takes us back to outer space for the irreverent sci-fi comedy classic Dirty Pair! Produced by the amazing talent at Sunrise and inspired by the light novels by Takachiho Haruka, Dirty Pair chronicles the adventures of Kei and Yuri, two 19-year-old ‘trouble consultants’ for the WWWA, who travel the galaxy solving problems, sometimes so aggressively they create many new ones. The original 26-episode TV series is a model of great episodic storytelling, with a series of stories that are fun, zany, clever, and sometimes even a little bit heartfelt. It’s also one of the most insanely 1980s shows ever made, from the fashion to the music to the animation, and while it bears certain similarities to other caper-driven franchises like Lupin the Third, there’s truly nothing else quite like Dirty Pair!

Enjoy, and come back next week as we continue our Dirty Pair adventures with the 1986 film Project Eden, the 1987 OVA series Dirty Pair 2, and more!
