Kosuke Fujishima, like Rumiko Takahashi, can't make a bad series to save his life. I'll admit up front that I've only seen the OVA movie, the first 3 discs of the regular series, and the bonus episodes--but I'm in love with the series.
The characters in the series are funny and fun...but they're also sweet and can be serious when they need to be. You will be drawn into the fumbling relationship between Ken and Natsumi, laugh at the travails of Miyuki, smirk at the tattling of Yoriko (my personal favorite character in the series)...you will love this series if you watch it.
Of course, what really makes this series great is the voice acting. From Pam Mercer's cute whiny voice for Yoriko to Jason Hatfield's bombastic pronouncements for Strikeman, you can't help but love this series.
And even though I'm not a gear-head like Kosuke Fijushima, Miyuki's talks about her equipment only translate into a passion for her work, which only makes the anime that much sweeter. All in all, this is a great anime. Regardless of whether you get the OVA, the TV series, the mini-episodes,or the original 4 episodes, you will love this series. And my spoiler? On the bonus disc for the first boxed set, the combinations to unlock the easter eggs are 2112 and 867-5309 (ha ha).
