About Dirty Pair Flash

Meet Dirty Pair Flash (ダーティペアFLASH), an action, adventure and comedy anime by Sunrise (1994). Here is the premise in a nutshell. What the story covers: Kei and Yuri were originally junior auxiliary agents in the Worlds Works and Welfare Agency (W.W.W.A. or 3WA for short) when the two were paired together under the codename "Lovely Angels. Kei was coming off her fourth probation for something she had done, and Yuri's dating exploits were common knowledge, not to mention the two had an instant dislike for each other when they met.

Along the way, at first, Kei and Yuri refused to work with each other, and Kei even resigned from the 3WA. Afterwards, the two continued to work together, although they earned their nickname, "the Dirty Pair" because of all the collateral damage the two (unintentionally) cause in the completion of their cases. Even though the two now get along with one another, they continue to bicker and complain to each other.

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Kei (Rica Matsumoto) and Yuri (Mariko Kouda) are two of the characters you will meet early. Think of it as a pick for viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. At 6 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.
