The story initially starts by dealing with terrorism in an alternate world 1990s where Japan is the largest economy in the world.

However, when the Red May suddenly find themselves being wiped out, the Special security force discover that something else is hunting the terrorists...
AngelCop I saw this a few months ago and was greatly impressed and is up there with my favourites (you can see how my views differ from the other previous guys).
The female cop shows up, she is OBVIOUSLY a female, but when she takes off her helmet, they have to show it 4 times like it's some big surprise.
AngelCop We have a new candidate for the single worst anime I have had the misfortune of veiwing.
In the first episode of this six episode series we meet Raiden a tough SSF agent who is trying to hunt down a Communist terrorist group called the Red May. He is teamed with stoic female copAngel, but on one of their first missions together Raiden is crippled.
Angel continues hunting down the Red May, and the group's leader is captured by the SSF.
AngelCop is a mixed bag in the worst sense: the bad stuff can ruin your enjoyment of the good stuff.
