Debutante Detective Corps

They've been marked for murder but no one puts a hit on these Misses! Someone's trying to kill the richest girls in Japan, but when the girls in question are the five members of the Debutante Detective Corps, it's the assassins who're going to be in trouble. Meet Kimiko and Miyuki Ayanokouji, Youko Ryuzaki, Reika Shu and Nina Kirov, five of the most incredible young women in the known universe! Not only do they have a combined wealth that equals the gross national product of Japan, they each have a special ability that comes in very handy when dealing with pesky things like terrorists and kidnappers. Unfortunately, these abilities don't make life simple for Daichi and Nomura, the poor police detectives who've been assigned to protect these feminine firebrands from the forces of evil. Especially when the girls just want to have fun! The only person who's having a worse time than the police and the killers is the poor principal of the exclusive school the debs attend. After all, it's one thing to have to revise your curriculum on a daily basis, it's another thing entirely to have to keep rebuilding the school!

This is what you'll read on the back of the tape.

Sounds nice isn't it?

Well, if you answered yes, then be careful, otherwise you'll be very disappointed. I consider myself like a general anime fan. I like most anime I watch, should they be shoujo or shounen. But in this case... This is literally the worse anime I have ever seen! Not only the story is boring, but it's stupid as well. I don't expect every anime I watch to have de philosophical depth of Neon Genesis Evangelion, but I expect them to be at least entertaining. Well, maybe a 5 year old child would find it interesting. But then again, I'm not sure. One thing is sure: this film is proof that it takes more then five girls with special abilities and big boobs to make an interesting anime. In this case, an intelligent plot would have been nice...

Quite frankly, I don't understand why ADV bothered to subtitle and distribute this film.

The only quality of this film: it only last 20 min...

In sort, it is NOT recommended.
