Watched it earlier today, pretty nice I think.
Crazy comedy action with likeable characters is never completely wrong  :)
Remastered image quality is very visible...

Super excited about this series.  I love that there's a solid fansubbing group tackling classic anime.

I have (low resolution) encodes of the old Fuzzy Productions VHS fansubs for Dirty Pair, if those would be in any way helpful to your translation.

Haha! Maybe so.

I missed the release of the ep, though...

Great job (as usual) on episode 1 of Dirty Pair.  Looking forward to more down the line.

Live-eviL formally apologizes to you poor suckers who downloaded episode 1 thinking it was a brand new series.

A few things to take note of:
1.  Dirty Pair, despite the name, is NOT a porno.  The "dirty pair" does not refer to breasts, gonads, ass cheeks or face cheeks.
(Well... maybe breasts)

2.  Older art styles can be a shock to the system, take necessary precautions.  Your initial reflex may be to immediately close the video upon sight of an abundance of pastel colors and slightly muffled audio.  This is natural.  Suppress this reflex and open your mind to new avenues of entertainment.  If, after the first five episodes you find yourself unsatisfied, there are still alternative methods to facilitate enjoyment.  "Drinking games" with "alcohol" can prove to be a panacea to any situation.

3.  Even old anime has potential for greatness, relax and take a chance.

Thank you for visiting Live-eviL, and enjoy your stay.  Please leave all religious offerings at the front desk.  [:burtonsnowboard]

Haha! Nice roundabout way of noting things about DP, Yoshu-sama.  :D

4)  Beware of the opening song. It might get stuck in your head and before you know it, you will be dancing like you would at a disco in the 80's.

5)  Don't try to decipher/figure out what Muhgi says. It will only make your brain implode(and leave a nasty mess to clean up).

I'm happy that the series has been picked up by a 2nd group since the first group (who normally just does DVD rips) stalled at episode 10.  So I'm eagerly waiting for things from episode 11 on.  ^_^

Anyway, thanks to those involved with this project.  ^_^

Thank you for an excellent translation.

I was surprised how good the series is.  No wonder that some people have rooted for this release. It is a shame that companies avoid licensing old stuff regardless of how good the series is.

You're welcome. I'm glad you enjoyed it.  :) By the way, I'm the translator of this series and will strive to do the best I can in translating the rest.  ;D

Yeah, sadly, many anime fans these days prefer animation quality, certain trends, and etc instead of actual quality.  :-\ Now, I'm not saying a slick looking series or whatever isn't good, but rather, overall quality should be what counts, IMHO.

I must add my thanks to the growing chorus here. DP is the kind of stuff I love: pure fun, pop entertainments without any of the "seriousness" that makes so much newer stuff so hard to actually enjoy. Long live the 80s!

Awesome new* series.

Gotta love how OP/ED. OP especially is way better than most current OP/ED lately. Amazingly enough the English used in OP is NOT EngRish. I was like Woah.
