Product Description: Charged with keeping the peace and investigating crime among the stars, the Worlds Welfare Work Association (WWWA) prides itself on a reputation of safety and regard for life and property. If only someone would tell that to Agents Kei and Yuri, codename "the Lovely Angels," but better known as the Dirty Pair. Part female James Bond and part walking disaster, this duo gets the job done, though there are no guarantees that a city or two won't get razed in the process. In this adventure, the Angels are called in to investigate the cataclysmic destruction of the Gravus Heavy Industry facility on the planet Dangool. What they find there hurls the pair into a danger-filled trek across the galaxy. Created by popular science fiction author Haruka Takachiho in 1979, The Dirty Pair are among the most beloved characters in popular anime and science fiction circles.
Great for Those Familiar with the Dirty Pair Anime Series The big three stereotypes of anime seem to be 1.) big eyes; 2.) big breasts; 3.) big guns/explosions. With Dirty Pair, we get all of that in one package.
As soon as I happened to see The Great Adventure of the Dirty Pair, the original novel (finally translated into English) which eventually spawned the anime series, I snagged it instantly. Admittedly, if I was not so familiar with the anime series, I don't think I'd like this book nearly as much, but for those who adore the Dirty Pair anime, I strongly suggest this book ;-)
