What happened to Yuri and Kei? Looks like that got a ton of plastic surgery and over exaggerated body parts that just look silly. I guess I'll just stick to getting the series when it finally comes out here.

Although Hisao Tamaki did do the Star Wars manga, his other work tend to be of hentai. Not saying this one will be, but the style he uses probably is passing into this Dirty Pair manga.

Moe Pair? Rolling Eyes At least the art doesn't suck as badly as it did in Flash.

Very true, but the bad art was also part of a very bad adaptation or update of the original.

I'll take the art from Flash over that cover anytime. Without the 3WA logo, I'd still be looking at the page to figure out and wondering why no picture was included from at least one of the prior series.

A cheesecake series is fine, but they just look silly with those huge boobs hanging out like that.

The original Pair seemed to get by fine with B-cups.

In 1985, times have changed. You'd be hard press not to find a action ecchi series with a female protagonist that doesn't have a sizable nowadays.

That being said I'm not exactly digging the art. It's not bad but something about it feels off
