Agerna is a planet rich in Vizorium, the one mineral necessary to space travel. So when a series of mysterious attacks on mining operations has the governments of the world pointing fingers and blaming each other, the World Welfare & Works Association naturally sends in their top agents to investigate. But are the lovely angels up to the task of stopping a mad scientist bent on taking a long dormant alien race to its final evolutionary form? Throw in a thief who's hunting a bottle of World War II-vintage wine and it's a safe bet that nobody on the planet is safe. It's more chaos, more mayhem and even more destruction than ever before as the Dirty Pair take on their wildest case yet!

Speaking as a big Dirty Pair fan, it's really amazing how much of disappointment Project Eden is. The animation is smooth, I guess, and the intro, Yuri's impromptu dance (now a famous vaporwave gif), the "over the top" song sequence, and the Streamline dub Wattsman's VA is about all I like about this particular Dirty Pair franchise entry. Let's start with the bath that results in Kei, Yuri and Carson doing Kill la Kill before that was a thing for most of this movie. While they actually became pretty professional by the end of the TV series, Kei and Yuri are still acouple of dimbulbs (and I mean that in the most affectionate way) but even early TV series Kei and Yuri wouldn't take a bath in radioactive abandoned mine water.
But what I don't really like about this movie is that once Carson gets (re) introduced in the mine, the Pair seem to take a backseat in driving the story. Carson leads the Pair around; they tend to respond to him instead of driving the situation themselves and putting the men in the backseat, as is the usual dynamic in the TV series. For a good portion of the film Kei is off with Carson and Yuri has no dialogue as she looks around for them (though the Xenomorph skin she wears is a nice touch). The result of all this is that, crucially, the banter and camaraderie between Kei and Yuri is absent from the majority of this film, producing something rather joyless compared to any episode of the TV series.
What's even more offensive is the cheesy romance angle between Kei and Carson. The TV series Lovely Angels' relationships with men are comically bad and these experiences continually reaffirm the bond between Kei and Yuri. Seeing Kei getting flustered and tsundere with this Carson guy just doesn't sit right with me, it's not what I expect from girls who've been making jokes about oral sex and giving each other their 'leftover' men (25 years before Panty and Stocking did it!). The sexual confidence and savvy dealing with men that characterizes Kei and Yuri is simply not here.
This movie is just not fun or funny, and if this is someone's first exposure to Dirty Pair I would understand why they wouldn't be impressed by it - the movie's Kei and Yuri just feel generic and, crucially, they don't even feel like the main players in their own movie when the staff has given so much attention to Carson and Wattsman. Project Eden is not representative of what makes the Dirty Pair great characters. Kei and Yuri really deserved a rollicking action comedy epic - like many episodes of the TV/OVA series are- instead of this rather dull affair.

To be honest, this was the first Dirty Pair movie that I had watched back in 199.. um a long time ago. It was so much mind-boggling fun that this movie raised my expectations of the rest of the Dirty Pair franchise, which sadly did not live up to those expectations. Having watched most of the rest of the OVAs and other movies, I will have to say that Dirty Pair Project Eden is still by far the best of all the Dirty Pair OVAs/Movies. The plot is simple, they are sent to Agerna, a planet rich in Vizorium (one mineral necessary to space travel). Needlessto say Vizorium is unstable and can explode easily - setting us up for Classic Dirty Pair action. Our intrepid WWWA Agents are investigating series of mysterious attacks on mining operations and discover a mad scientist bent on taking a long dormant alien race to its final evolutionary form!
Besides the main plot, there is a sub plot involving Carson B. Carson, a thief who`s hunting a bottle of World War II-vintage wine. Now THIS is a good character. He's fun, crazy and a true scoundrel. If they wanted to throw in an obligatory love interest for the Dirty Pair, this is the way to do it.
Animation is dated but the characters are classic Dirty Pair. There's more chaos and mayhem than ever, and the ending is exactly what the Dirty Pair should be like. It's just toooo good. If only the rest of the OVAs/Movies were as good.

one hour,twenty three minutes of my life that i wont get back,plain and simple thats what this anime is.it starts off reasonably interesting,with humans having colonised space with two planets being the focus of attention as they are the main manufacturers of an essential mineral called Vizorium which is needed as a crutial component to produce the metal that makes space ships.Agerna one of the two planets suddenly has its main production factory attacked by strange creature who feeds on the vizorium and destroys the factory in the process. Agerna suspects that the creatures came from eden as it is its main competitor.Two femalesgovernment official are then sent to investigate the matter,they are nick-named the dirty pair as they always cause chaos and destruction in their wake.My first problem of this movie is that the question of why the creatures attacked the factory and feeds on vizorium doesnt gets solved.The character for this movie are very few and mostly uninteresting,the main characters are typical no nonsense,''will woop your butt type''.
The other characters arent even worth mentioning.This being an 80's anime the animation is really dated,it didnt bother me but the younger anime fans wont like it.The music for this anime seems to come out at random for no particular reason{dance and disci}.The action is also pretty bland.Nothing worthwhile here,move on you were warned.
