Originally, I had planned on seeing this anime while playing the actual Virtua Fighter games because they were all released at the time.

First episode: Akira is a lovable goofball with an appetite for dumplings while Pai Chan is a temperamental girl who ends up getting accidentally kissed by him and by the time Akira finishes rescuing her she gets chased around by Akira with even more fresh-made dumplings.

They were both in a Chinatown restaurant.

I think Yu Suzuki created this and the Shenmue anime to promote the games he developed.

Thoughts?
