I'm always up for a classic fan-service gunslinging anime.

Too bad there are only 3 episodes.

Overall a fun and very tightly paced episode. Lots of effective humor, fanservice, and cool animation. The final shootout was pretty well done; especially the music when Rally caught the gun in mid-air.

And the dub quality is great. Around the same level as Cowboy Bebop.

Pretty nice vibes, and an amusing watch. Americanized anime always feels refreshing.

Great attention to detail, favourite parts were Rally shooting past Bill for the "test" and the bridge fight.

Great first episode! The comedy was good, the art style is great, pure aesthetic. Minnie and Rally seem like interesting characters too. Sucks it's only 3 episodes though. So basically Bill ends up blackmailing the girls into helping him out with a gun running case led by a man named Washington.

The absence of Ken, Bean and Misty (especially her) is saddening, and I'm pretty sure that she had already been an established character in the manga before the OVA was created, though maybe it's wise to check the magazine issues' publication dates.

Gray's blade from the manga!

William kinda makes me think of Kaji but with Yazen's voice lol

The "tunnel" our gang was driving in was the same that was used in Riding Bean's chase scene!

The bridge at the end should've been a bit lower for the jump to be more realistic. But I can overlook that in a 90's OVA.

P.S. Homeless men were undercover agents o_o

Eh. It was okay. The animation was pretty good, and so was the artstyle, but... eh, it's not doing much for me otherwise.

It was a great introduction to the two characters and the world itself, great seeing so many guns as well since I'm a pretty big gun-nut, i am also glad it portrays the ATF as evil bastards as it is very real to life. Can't wait to see the rest of this very well animated OVA!

not bad at all, I hope their relationship moves away from this hostile-blackmail phase tho, it'll be pretty boring if that's how they stayed for the next two episodes, overall the characters have chemistry and the gun fighting is goofy but fun...

So far, I love it.

The city, the characters, and the guns are great. However, Minnie-May is insane regarding her use of explosives. These people shouldn't be intact after sustaining that much damage.
