Synopsis:Â Charged with keeping the peace and investigating crime among the stars, the Worlds Welfare Work Association (WWWA) prides itself on a reputation of safety and regard for life and property. If only someone would tell that to Agents Kei and Yuri, codename “the Lovely Angels,” but better known as the Dirty Pair. Part female James Bond and part walking disaster, this duo gets the job done, though there are no guarantees that a city or two won’t get razed in the process. In this adventure, the Angels are called in to investigate the cataclysmic destruction of the Gravus Heavy Industry facility on the planet Dangool. What they find there hurls the pair into a danger-filled trek across the galaxy. Created by popular science fiction author Haruka Takachiho in 1979, the Dirty Pair are among the most beloved characters in popular anime and science fiction circles.

Come on! Why can’t these books be picked up and continue these stories? All the stories I grew up with or liked always seems to be neglected or hated so when things do come out, they are parts of a series that I will not be reading or watching. Everything I want to read or see will never get the America or get discontinued. Am I really that cursed that anything I touch ends up destroyed?
I need a company to continue these stores with book 3 and onward.
