About Debutante Detective Corps

Debutante Detective Corps (Ojousama Sousamou) arrives as an action anime by Gainax, Studio 4°C (1996), and the premise is easy to summarize. The premise: Debutante Detective Corps kicks off with introductions to the five main characters, Miyuki, Reika, Youko, Nina, and Kimiko. It seems these five girls are incredibly rich and have been sent a threatening video tape by forces unknown.

As things develop, a police guard is set up at the school where the girls have enrolled. Kimiko, however, doesn't like the idea of being cooped up at school, and convinces the rest of the girls to trick the police into leaving. No sooner are the police gone, however, then the girls are assaulted by three armed terrorists.

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Think of it as a pick for viewers who like fast, high-impact fights.
