Right Stuf, Inc. and its Nozomi Entertainment division want fans’ questions for Haruka Takachiho, the novelist and creator of the DIRTY PAIR series. Please submit questions, via the form located at http://dirtypair.rightstuf.com/questions, by noon CDT on Wednesday, June 16, 2010.
Right Stuf’s Nozomi Entertainment announced its acquisition of the series in March 2010, and two DVD box sets are planned, with the first currently scheduled for late Fall 2010. Each set will feature remastered video from the Japanese DVD release, as well as Japanese audio and English-language subtitles.
The Dirty Pair TV series follows the action-packed, sci-fi misadventures of Kei and Yuri, operatives dispatched by the for-profit World Welfare Works Association to resolve crises throughout the universe. Their preferred codename may be “Lovely Angels,” but their on-the-job effectiveness, which is only rivaled by the path of destruction left in their wake, has earned them a very public, very unwanted nickname – the “Dirty Pair.”
The television series, which consists of 24 episodes and two TV specials, is the first anime adaptation starring the iconic heroines of the long-running Dirty Pair novels and short stories. It features production by Sunrise (Gundam, City Hunter, Sgt. Frog, Cowboy Bebop,) and Studio Nue (Crusher Joe, Macross).
The Dirty Pair’s literary adventures – written by Haruka Takachiho (creator of Crusher Joe) and illustrated by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko (character design for Mobile Suit Gundam, Gundam Unicorn) – have won two Seiun Awards for science fiction and inspired an array of media, including anime, radio series and English-language comics. The first two novels, The Great Adventure of the Dirty Pair and The Dirty Pair Strike Again, are published for English-speaking audiences by Dark Horse.
