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.

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. (Source: ANN)

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.

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 everycrime 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 unraveling from the past one of the members of Team Warrior which makes it quite intriguing, and generally interesting without getting too dark and emotional. so it won't stir you up. CHARACTERS: the characters are much more unique. every main character has their own personality and are more refined. although in Burn Up W, Rio, Lilica, Yuji, Maki and Nanvel are practically the same. You get to see more of Nanvel and get to know her character better. Also, the section chief seems more like a boss in Exess, in 'W' he is also perverted just like Yuji, so it's kind of just repeating his character. He also makes the show funny by calling Rio 'rookie' and making her appear as mischievous and annoying. also bringing in a wide range of different characters gives the show more broad personalities, involving more cops, suspects, and people they encounter along the way. And all of them are anything but normal. which gives the show more hilarious textures. REGION: Bringing in various regions like the Sahari Desert, Osaka, and also representatives from different countries, gives the show more culture, and it keeps the storyline outside of Neo-Tokyo, so that it isn't so predictable. CONCLUSION: Although this show is Generic Japanese Anime, it deserves praise for how well it is put together and the entertainment value, there are also meaningful messages in some episodes that will help you appreciate it.

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 inher 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 are waiting for you around the bend. Hang in there trooper!

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! Thisreview of Burn Up! Excess is spoiler free! —Story/Characters Synopsis: 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, pilot/voyeur Yūji, 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. Burn Up! Excess is full of lowbrow humor and old otaku references that wouldn't make it very popular today, especially when it has a questionable portrayal of transgendered people. I would have been okay with them just sticking to the plot of a group of transgender women collaborating together in an elaborate jewel heist to be able to get sex changes "in Morocco" (the ADV dub). The issue with it arises, when the least passable one, she has a cartoonishly chiseled jawline, tries to rape Rio every few episodes. Calling her Stephanie, and saying that he still has a functioning penis. That's not the most flattering picture of a pre-op transgendered woman. With that outdated part out of the way, let's get into the meat and bones of the story! Most of the vignettes play out like a Dirty Pair episode, like when Rio flirts with an Arabian oil tycoon because she wants to pay off a massive amount of debt, but then crazy hijinks ensure and her plan gets foiled. Or when Rio is assigned a mission to protect a pop star that's being harassed by a stalker, the two of them get into a cat fight because Yūji (Rio's perverted co-worker) is lusting after the aforementioned pop star, and then they end up being friends! The voice direction in the dub is done so well that there were several scenes that were so funny, that I started crying from laughter. Particularly in Episode 7: Short Vacation! That one was a gut-buster. It's impossible not to like the brash, insensitive Rio and the show tries to make her the primary focus. Despite it having a colorful cast of pretty girls, characters like Lilica and my best girl, Nanvel; these women don't get enough time to shine, compared to the show-runner. It's identical to how Priss steals the show in Bubblegum Crisis. There are a lot of series referenced in Burn Up! Excess, including: * Sailor Moon * Kaiji * Hokuto no Ken * Neon Genesis Evangelion * Golden Boy * Tokimeki Memorial * To Heart There's even a shot-for-shot recreation of Unit 01 fighting Sachiel in Episode 8: Nanvel Kidnapped, and Nanvel says, shortly after the scene has transitioned, "I mustn't run away!" —Technical Shinichirō Kimura (director) * Chiccha na Yukitsukai Sugar, localized as "A Little Snow Fairy Sugar" * Chocolat no Mahō (OVA) * Cosplay Complex * Fight, One Shot! Jūden-chan!!, localized as "Jūden-chan Recharged" * G-On Riders * Hand Maid May * Ijime: Ikenie no Kyōshitsu (OVA) * Sleeping with Hinako (OVA) * Bathtime with Hinako and Hiyoko (OVA) * Karin * Maburaho * Mahoraba: Heartful Days * Popotan * Tsuyokiss * Venus Versus Virus * Weiß Kreuz (OVA) Commentary: Honestly, when I was browsing through Mr. Kimura's filmography, I kind of cringed a bit. In the mid-2000s, I really hated shows like Maburaho and Karin. Maburaho is notably one of the most wretched series I have ever seen. Despite that, he did well with the Burn Up! franchise, it may have been the script-writing that saved the day, but compared to his later TV anime debuts, this one is among the best; if not, the best. Shinichirō Kimura seems to thrive in the ecchi and heavily moe-centric subgenre of the otaku fandom.

Excess after scouring internet search engine results, but I was busting a gut laughing out loud because of the dub directing and actors, not to mention that the script has memorable lines such as: referring to a ladies' undergarments (a bra) as a "boulder holder," Maya repeatedly threatening to give the bad guys a "lead enema," and the quote: "looks like someone got a visit from the titty fairy." Keep in mind, Mr. Ledford has overseen the localization of hentai OVAs, too, so I don't know if the comedy comes from that area of expertise, or just an inherent genius in transcribing lewd scripts. Either way, the English dub deserves to earn an award! Yūji Ikeda (animation director, character design) * Arslan Senki (art director) * Please Save My Earth (art director) * Cardcaptor Sakura Movie 2: Fūin Sealed Card (art director) * CLAMP School Detectives (art director) * Di Gi Charat (art director) * Dragon Ball (character design) * Dragon Ball Z (character design) * Fushigi Yûgi (art director) * Gensōmaden Saiyūki (art director) * Gosenzo-sama Banbanzai! (art director) * Great Teacher Onizuka (art director) * Kōtetsu Tenshi Kurumi 2 (chief animation director, character design) * Yū Yū Hakusho (art director) Commentary: Mr. Ikeda has very crisp, memorable designs. I wasn't sure if I was particularly going to like the style in this series, because the protagonist Rio, has the big-hair syndrome that is prevalent in a lot of other '90s anime series. But, coupled with the animation style and the angling of the shots, the designs are very charming and expressive! Toshifumi Takizaki (script) * Big Wars (director) * Crusher Joe OVA (director) * Cyborg 009 (episode director) * Densetsu Kyojin Ideon (episode director) * Dirty Pair (director) * Dirty Pair: Flight 005 Conspiracy (director) * Samurai 7 (director) * Seisenshi Dunbine OVA (director) Commentary: Mr. Takizaki is a very big name in the industry, mainly known as working on storyboards for really famous mecha series, like Sōkō Kihei Votoms and Kidō Senshi Zēta Gundam. The writing and the storyboarding in this series is very clean and succinct, it goes to show that having a veteran in the industry on a project can bring a series to life. Mitsuyo Suenaga (script) * Cobra: The Animation (script) * Cross Game (script) * Patalliro (script) Commentary: From the series I've watched, that he's had involvement with, Cobra: The Animation and Paralliro both have snappy comedic timing and a certain quirkiness to their scripts. Burn Up! Excess conveys that same kind of snarky humor. I watched Burn Up! Excess with the ADV dub, so I will list the Japanese seiyū, but comments will be on the performances of the English voice actors. An interesting tidbit about this particular series is that it also has an Italian and Spanish dub! Yuka Imai as Rio Kinezono, notable roles: * Scarlet Ohara, Wedding Peach * Renamon, Digimon Tamers * Marie Ange, Doki Doki PreCure * Yū Hayakawa, Final Fantasy: Unlimited * Eiko Randō, Geobreeders 2 * Misaki Matsuya, Excel Saga * Nabuca, Now and Then, Here and There * Yuki, Ojamajo Doremi * Futaba Āsu, Puni Puni ☆ Poemii * Otaru Mamiya, Saber Marionette J * Junior Virey, Saber Marionette R * Eden Orion, Saint Seiya Omega * Jinto Linn, Seikai no Monshō * Wakaba Shinohara, Shōjo Kakumei Utena * Tomochika Shibuya, Uta no☆Prince-sama♪ Amanda Winn Lee as Rio Kinezono, notable roles: * Mimiru, .hack//SIGN * Momiji Fujimiya, Blue Seed * Reimi, Burn Up! * Pandy, Dead Leaves * Mika Seido, Geneshaft * Gally, Battle Angel Alita * Rally Vincent, Gunsmith Cats * Rei Ayanami, Neon Genesis Evangelion * Yukiko Amagi, Persona 4: The Animation * Titaniva Mu Koshigaya, Plastic Little * Nancy Makuhari, R.O.D: Read or Die * Saki Asamiya, Sukeban Deka Commentary: Amanda Winn Lee has always been a favorite voice actor of mine. She always gives a clear, earnest performance and her role in Burn Up! Excess is no different. Rio is a lazy, good-for-nothing, self-serving jerk—who's likable, despite her insufferable demeanor. Watching her character interact with people and the world around her, is like watching an episode of Seinfeld. Ms. Lee makes the character true to her vices, but immensely likable and funny, at the same time. Great performance! Maya Okamoto as Maya Jingu, notable roles: * Megumi Amano, Chōjin Densetsu Urotsukidōji * Lambda Nom, Haja Taisei Dangaiō * Haruka Minato, Kidō Senkan Nadesico * Fanna, Armed Dragon Fantasy Villgust * Liza Hoyly, Macross Dynamite 7 * Emma Sheen, Kidō Senshi Zēta Gundam * Orihime Soletta, Sakura Taisen * Yuki Saiko, Silent Möbius Lani Minella as Maya Jingu, notable roles: * Dolce Saito, Geneshaft * Rouge the Bat, Sonic the Hedgehog Commentary: Ms. Minella is very good at making Maya have a fractious, tougher than nails, tomboyish demeanor with a slightly Southern inflection coupled with it. I didn't understand the casting choice completely, until Episode 4: Gokudō Father, where it reveals that Maya is a country yokel, whose father is the leader of a biker gang. Lani Minella did a good job of expressing the subtle cadences of the character's voice. Great job, Ms. Minella! Sakura Tange as Lilica Ebett, notable roles: * Sakura Kinamoto, Cardcaptor Sakura * Jack the Ripper (Assassin), Fate/Apocrypha * Nero Claudius (Saber), Fate/Extra: Last Encore * Mill Varna, Maze☆Bakunetsu Jikū Kimberly Yates as Lilica Ebett, notable roles: * Yuka, Burn Up! * Leena, Dirty Pair Flash * May Hopkins, Gunsmith Cats * Azusa Kanzaki, Mamono Hunter Yōko * Yomiko Readman, R.O.D: Read or Die * May Jessica, Sol Bianca Commentary: I was less impressed with Ms. Yate's performance than some of the others. Her voice just sounded like a Monica Rial-esque, nasally, high-pitched character impression. I am not typically a fan of the simplicity used to voice feminine, or young-sounding, characters in English dubs. Though, Rial did a really good job voicing Lumière in Kiddy Grade. Yuri Amano as Nanvel Candlestick, notable roles: * Berthier and CereCere, Sailor Moon * Mother Togashi, Chūnibyō demo Koi ga Shitai! * Kallen's Mother, Code Geass * Kawai Kawai, Iczer-Girl Iczelion * Aki Kokonoe (Rin's Mother), Kodomo no Jikan * Alcyone, Magic Knight Rayearth * Rain Mikamura, Mobile Fighter G Gundam * Yuriko Star, Musekinin Kanchō Tylor * Sayo, Mushishi * Lashara Moon, Photon * Lorelei, Saber Marionette J * Kiyone Makibi, Tenchi Muyō! * Makiko Nagi, Tenjō Tenge * Asaka Nakamura, Ushio to Tora * Moemi Hayakawa, Video Girl Ai * Keiko Yukimura, Yū Yū Hakusho Keith Allison as Nanvel Candlestick, notable roles: * Rena Kunisaki, .hack/Legend of the Twilight Bracelet * Leone, Akame ga Kill * Kamome Sengakuji, Akihabara Dennō-gumi * Nuku Nuku, All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku * Leele, Chōjūshin Gravion * Melissa Mao, Full Metal Panic * Tabane Shinonono, IS: Infinite Stratos * Yui Takanaka, Megazone 23 * Misato Katsuragi, Neon Genesis Evangelion Commentary: Really great choice for the role of Nanvel. Ms. Allison conveys her character as both quirky and feminine, but also strong-willed and defiant when she needs to be. Nanvel didn't get as much focus as I think she deserved to have (the episode focusing on her, mostly focuses on Rio), but she had really good English and Japanese voice actresses to fill the void. Best girl was rectified! Mami Kingetsu as Maki Kawasaki , notable roles: * Nagisa Shiozaki, Yume de Aetara Carol Amerson as Maki Kawasaki, notable roles: * Sayoko Mano, Devil Hunter Yohko * Hikari Horaki, Neon Genesis Evangelion * Nakoruru, Samurai Showdown Commentary: Like her Japanese counterpart, Ms. Amerson hasn't had terribly many accredited roles. I thought her roles a Hikari in Neon Genesis Evangelion fit—as a cute, girl-next-door type of voice. But her role as Maki is kind of plain. She just sounds like an office secretary. Maki has a big emotional arc, towards the end of the series, but it was difficult to feel sympathy for the character with her monotonous inflection. Emi Shinohara as Ruby, notable roles: * Makoto Kino, Sailor Moon * Mokuren, Please Save My Earth * Kaho Mizuki, Cardcaptor Sakura * Ophelia, Claymore * Mari Īmura, Hajime no Ippo * Michiru Satomi, IGPX: Immortal Grand Prix * Kagero, Ninja Scroll * Migiri Yasuri, Katanagatari * Sanae Araki, Kaze no Youjinbō * Kekkō Kamen, Kekkō Kamen * Yōko Mizuno, Maria-sama ga Miteru * Kushina Uzumaki, Naruto * Biko Daitokuji, Project A-ko * Angel Rosewater, The Big O * Natsuhi Ushiromoiya, Umineko no Naku Koro ni * Charlotte Elbourne, Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust * Arashi Kishu, X/1999 Paula Tiso as Ruby, notable roles: * Ouka, .hack/Legend of the Twilight Bracelet Commentary: I have the same opinion of Ms. Tiso's role as Ruby, as I did when I watched .hack/Legend of the Twilight Bracelet. She sounds too old for her role. Paula Tiso is typically cast in the sexy character archetype, but her roles sound very low energy, rather than vivacious and spunky. Conclusively, Burn Up! Excess is a breath of fresh air in the cop genre: it has a plethora of otaku references, ecchi, laugh-out-loud humor, and some nuanced design-work and action scenes. If you're missing the ambience of a good 'ol, off-the-wall OVA—Burn Up! Excess has all of that campy, cyberpunk goodness that you cannot get in modern day Japanese animation! Rating: ★★★☆☆

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 aCrime 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 would of had more screen time and development like Rio it may have been more interesting. ~ART~ Old, thats all I can say. Im not going to be harsh with this one but ill compare it to trigun. It works, but it's nothing amazing. ~SOUND~ The music is fine, the dub is bearable for the most part. No real complaints from this end. ~FINAL~ The show could of done alot better. After episode 7 it takes a 180 and tries to be serious with a rather interesting story. But because of the hole it dug itself into, I could not take it serious...AT ALL. Had it been serious from the start, lost the fan service, and more character development, it would of worked. But it's senseless humor (WHICH WAS GOOD BTW), lack of character, un-originality, and excessive fanservice...yeah theirs no redemption. RATING - skip it

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 mademe pretty sad that there was no second season follow up to tie up the cliffhanger.
