Funny in the 80's anime, she is a Lot closer to Yuri, There best friends, yeah they have there arguments over food and stuff, but the anime shows they really care for each other. In the 90's reboot, it seem they can that friendship were they can hardly stand each other. That was not really what made the 80's Anime great.
Ofc I like Rei Hino/Sailor Mars, but she's not my absolute favourite. She's top 10, though.

Hard to compare anime and cartoon characters, anyway. Also, there's cartoons and anime for all sort of age demographics out there.

Dirty Pair was fun. I also liked Bubblegum Crisis. My favourite Dirty Pair girl was the blue haired one. What was her name again?

I think the blue-haired lady's name was Yuri and her partner's name was Kei.

I like Yuri also. I was watching a video on in depth review of Dirty Pair and how it got into the character of Kei and Yuri's growth in the 80's series. People may think its mindless action 80's stuff, but there is a bit of character growth in the 80's series.

Isn't that mostly said about Western cartoons and comics, not Japanese Anime and Manga?

It also had a good OST. Particularly the OPs and EDs. Meiko Nakahara had such a beautiful voice. Kimagure Orange Road and Bubblegum Crisis also have great music. I love me some 80s jpop music.

The opening was great, I still get a kick out of that tune. Its so 80's.

The OVA also had a good opening, not as epic as the TV show though, but its pretty good. A bit more calm in tune.

And Love or Hate Flash it had a pretty good opening. Not sure I should link it because you do see a bit of Kei's breast during the transformation scene of the opening. (Dirty Pair is NOT Cutie Honey) Yeah I am just a big fan of the series, I cant help myself lol.
