Introduction
Follows the exploits of Team Warrior, a special anti-terror wing of the Neo-Tokyo Police force. Team Warrior is comprised of the habitually broke Rio, gun-crazy Maya, computer specialist Lillica, tech-expert Nanvel, piliot/voyeur Yuji, and is led by the enigmatic Maki. The team faces a number of missions, ranging from bodyguard duty, breaking up robbery and arms rackets, and providing security for a very powerful tank. Rio and company continually thwart the terrorist aims of Ruby, an operative for a shadowy cabal of powerful men. Before the final showdown, the circumstances behind the formation of Team Warrior, how the precocious Rio came to join it, and Maki's painful past will be revealed.

This one is just so ridiculous. I think I'll be saying this a lot in my reviews: it's so bad it's good. I love it when a film manages to do that. The characters are mostly one dimensional. It's a great watch if you're looking for something that's kind of mindless and doesn't always make much sense. What others are calling fan service made me a little uncomfortable, but that's also something that I like. The token male character is a total creep and he's always trying to peek on the girls in the locker room. That is the worst part about this anime.
It made me pretty sad that there was no second season follow up to tie up the cliffhanger.

Burn Up! Excess is my introduction to the Burn Up! franchise, so I will not be comparing it to previous or later entries; that will come when I watching the original OVA, W, and Scramble! Excess is an uncouth ecchi/comedy with a heart of gold. There's an agency that employs female armed forces, that assemble to save the day Bubblegum Crisis style; but with a more hardened, foul-mouthed cop slant to the genre, diverging from its forerunners in sheer lewdness. Strap on your seatbelts and be prepared to read about an unapologetically vulgar, action-packed series with a sprinkle of otaku humor mixed into the concoction!
This review of Burn Up! Excess is spoiler free!

Darker than the darkest depths of hell,the holocaust compared to this must have been a stroll down the park to feed ducks.THIS IS THE PERFECT IDEA OF HELL.One episode of this monstrosity can put to sleep a child with ADD in seconds.
Story?There is one i am sure.I am not suicidal enough to find out.
Animation?Well could be worse.
Sound?Out of place..Must have been some sort of after thought during lunch break.
Characters?Oh yeah,that is the best part..I couldn't care less if they got murdered brutally in the first 10 seconds.In fact it would be TONS better that way.No background,no build up,no nothing..I can't understand for the life of me how it's possible to make characters so empty of every trait apart from them being hilariously unfunny,uninteresting and stupid to the point of total…

With an anime like this I didnt have high hopes, which is a good thing because I found this show at my local video store for $7 - $12 and really thats all it's worth. In no way is this a "bad show", but to sum it up, skip it.
~STORY~
Burn up takes place in a futuristic japan with our crew of mostly female cops called project warrior. Project warrior is an anti - terrorist group with hand picked members with different skill sets and very secretive by nature. Thats really the sum up of the story. Until the halfway point. The show goes on a Crime of the week thing and it worked. after that though, thats when I started to lose interest in an already mediocre show.
~CHARACTERS~
Nothing interesting. The characters in this show get very little development and become quite.....boring. If they…

This series has a little common with its predecessors. The cast is the same of Burn Up W, but Excess lacks of the action that this one has. Instead of this, in Burn Up Excess the main subject is the humor. This isn't an action anime, like any person could think before watching it, it is full of weird characters, weird jokes, extremely ridiculous situations, fan service, and a bit of action and fights. I recommend it only for fans of the Burn Up W characters, and it must be watched just for fun. Don't expect so much more.

Now I move onto the i'll fated "Burn up Excess" t.v. series. A tidy little effort THAT never knew the phrase. "Quit while you still have a marginal audience." But no. They did not quit. They kept right on cranking out big boobed babes with badges. Episode after brain boinking episode, and many of us out there still love them for it. So getting down to the subject matter, in #2 the team of warrior girls delves deeper into what makes them tick. From the origins of Rio's recruitment. To the reason why the green haired boss lady has that lone wolf look in her eye. It's all here in one form or another. I gave this one 6 because even though it is third rate anime, it is STILL better than any other manga of it's genre for that same era. Anything worthwhile requires patience. The better episodes a…

I personally find this series much better than Burn Up W.
(In comparison to Burn UP W)
OVERALL:
the episodes are much more broad in origin; they aren't just restricted to the cops fighting crimes, they are more interactive amongst other characters and people.
It's also funnier. The jokes are much more outrageous and will get you cracking up, although most of them are sex jokes and are centered around Rio being a blonde stereotype. if you don't get offended by this show's crude humor, you will find this show hilarious.
it is an equal blend of comedy, action and also a bit of drama.
STORYLINE:
it's clever how generally every crime Team Warrior encounter all tie together. they all contribute to unfolding the storyline, (without ruining it for those who haven't watched it) it is all an unr…
