Review

The two track approach taken by these episodes work surprisingly well, with the missions the girls undertake being more than enough to keep the adrenaline junkie in me happy, while the school episodes focusing on Anita bring a more slice-of-life feel to proceedings. The one downside is the lack of screen time given to some characters, especially Nenene, but there's plenty of the series still to come. You can now see roughly where the story is heading, and I can 't wait to see how it gets there. (Anime-On-DVD)
