Rating: 4 stars
Summary: More girls with guns good...
Review: This DVD completes the series with the last 5 OAVs. This time around the stories have a greater feeling of substance. Supporting characters are more fleshed out especially in episodes like "Revenge of the Muscle Lady", and "Sleeping Beauty" where they draw on the 3WA's past. Madame Beryl appears as a recurring character, as well as "Q", an obvious homage to Bond. The weakest episode is probably "Red Eyes are the Sign of Hell". Audio and video are still quality stuff for such an old TV program, and the dubbing does the show credit. I was pleased to see the credit-less ending sequence appear on this disk, not the only such duality that makes this a satisfying bookend to the first DVD. Anyone who likes Dirty Pair, especially if they own the first DVD, owe it to himself or herself to complete this fine set.
