Nozomi To Release Dirty Pair TV Series This Fall

Press release:

"Nozomi Entertainment announced that it has acquired the rights to the Dirty Pair TV series. The company will release the 24 episodes and two specials in two DVD box sets. Each will feature re-mastered video with Japanese audio and subtitles."

Coming on DVD this fall. Sub only.

Is there anyone that still doesn't already have a copy of Dirty Pair? Based on all the foreplay Brand X did in the press releases and little countdown timer thingy to work us all into a frenzy, I thought the intercourse would have been better...

UPDATE: Yeah, I know it's a picture of the OVA box there. Sue me.

CORRECTION: This is NOT a re-release after all folks, the original DP TV series was the one made in 1985 that was canceled after 24 eps (it was originally supposed to be 26 eps). It has not been released prior, only the OVA, Flash, and the movies. I was thinking of Flash all day. My bad, I stand corrected.

I believe sir that you are thinking of the Dirty Pair OVA or Dirty Pair Flash. The TV series has never been released in the US.

So it's not a re-re-re-release. It's just a release. I wish they would have licensed something else too but so does plenty of other people.

Dirty pair tv was NEVER licensed and released on dvd in the US. You are confused with the OVA which was licensed and released by adv films back in the day.

You know you're right, I was thinking of Flash, which I still have around here on VHS. I stand corrected.

'Yawn.'

This is wonderful news! Dirty Pair was one of the first anime shows I became a fan of (along with Urusei Yatsura and Cutey Honey) when I was introduced to genuine anime back in 1989. Now if that original Cutey Honey series could be released with English subs I can die happy...

Wow, this one came out of nowhere. I thought no one would license this series since it's so old now. Not that I'm not glad or think the show isn't good. I'm happy because I really like the Original Dirty Pair anime incarnations. Definitely something I will buy when it releases.
