Sigh... it's the scantily-clad bit that annoys me. Why can't women be cool crime fighters while fully clothed?
Besides, I like comics featuring nicely drawn young men rather than nicely drawn young women, but that's just me... ;-) (My sisters and I are having a little bit of difficulty remembering that Edward Elric is fifteen. He doesn't look fifteen...)
I'm sure the target audience of the Dirty Pair think they're pretty cool.
Thanks for passing on what you know about the different Manga/Anime titles. I don't mind the violence, it is the nudity/sexuality I want to stay away from. But from your description Fruit Baskets should be ok.
