We'll go through the franchise's history, Kei & Yuri's origins, and just why--40 years later--we still love the series. And yes, we will answer your burning questions on who we think is "best girl", and even our opinions on the cursed Kickstarter. Also in this episode: How we'd reboot the series, getting a little personal, and....anime tattoos?!  Stream the episode or [Direct Download] Subscribe on apple podcasts | Spotify Relevant links:Watch the Dirty Pair TV series free with ads in the USA on PlutoTV!Read a great essay on Adam Warren's Dirty Pair comics from Women Write About Comics!Buy Adam Warren's Dirty Pair comics on Amazon!Buy the first two original Dirty Pair novels in English on Amazon here and here!Follow Ashely Miami on Bluesky!See how you can get access to behind-the-scenes stuff, early access to the podcast (without ads!), and a BRAND NEW subscriber exclusive podcast with my new Ko-fi Subscriptions!
