This English translation of the first Dirty Pair novel is fun, funny, and highly diverting. Written in first person from Kay's (Kei's) point of view, the reader gets some insights into the girls' relationship, competitiveness, and cohesion. Often imitated but never surpassed, this story became the model for female buddy anime and manga, even spreading to USA via Adam Warren. Originally the author had his book translated to help Japanese students read English, but I used it as a side-by-side guide to help me read it in Japanese—the first J-novel I ever read! Highly recommended!
