I just watched the first 2 episodes of the English dub of this Anime series, and I find it absolutely hilarious!!

It starts with Akira having this strange love for dumplings, and Pai was getting chased by these ganstas (or whatever they're called).

Pai somehow ended up in this restaurant where Akira was eating these dumplings. Akira was sorta fighting with the gangstas while trying to eat his dumplings, and an accident ended up him kissing Pai. Pai got pissed off and went into this about Akira stole her first kiss and made it taste like dumplings..

Pai eventually got kidnapped and later held hostage by this guy (I don't remember his name), who for some reason has an English accent.Akira later had to rescue Pai, and Pai actually got pissed off at Akira.. proabably because she still doesn't forgive him for that Dumplings kiss..

Then there was episode 2 which started off with Pai getting pissed off because she got locked into this room.. She eventually escaped and spotted this boy getting bullied, Pai tried to teach him to fight but Akira taught him to run away..

The 2 episodes both have Akira saying this phrase..

"One should never harm others
nor themselves in the face of anger
my creed, this is the guideline I live by
and it is the law of my masters"

..as he puts on his bandanna. Does he do this every episode?

Who else has watched this Anime and what are your opinions?
 
The series was fairly good. Can't say it was faithful to the games storyline, because we all know Virtua Fighter's story is almost non-existent. Not to mention Season 2 was never dubbed, and I'm not complaining either, because the dub was flat out terrible, and poorly done. Especially when compared to other dubs, like Street Fighter II V, Fatal Fury and Tekken.
