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). I thought the the story was just very exciting and enjoyable. There is also good action which also gives it more points. The animation did seem to deteriate in the last episode though but nevertheless and awesome OVA series. Last updated Sunday, November 07 2004. | ||||||||

Oh why didn't I listen to Midnighter. This is a POS. Lets put it this way. 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. And the graphics make her look like the main guy from Fist of the North Star. Gasp. Please listen and avoid this piece of crap. Last updated Sunday, October 31 2004. | ||||||||

We have a new candidate for the single worst anime I have had the misfortune of veiwing. Angel Cop was absolutely horrid. The animation is mediocre at best, the only thing saving it is some passably animated action sequences in episode 5. Otherwise, the ragged, sloppy animation is painful to watch. Character designs are lousy, pretty by the numbers "effort," unpleasant to look at and badly animated. The wooden and uninspired English dub reaches new levels of stupidity, featuring wonderfully horrific pieces of dialogue like, "If this is justice, than I'm a bannana!" Dear God... The story was absolutely inane, some convoluted nonsense about leftist communist terrorists who turn out to be pawns of some evil mastermind. The continuous anti-communist message is like something out of the cold-war Red Scare, and displays an absolute ignorance of the system it attacks, never bothering to ask itself WHY it is thought so evil. Nonstop mindless violence is, of course, the only solution. It doesn't help that all of the "heroes" are immensely dislikable, with Angel herself being well, there's no delicate way to put this...Angel's just a real bitch. Her disregard for those she's supposed to be helping (i.e. the common citizen) is disgusting. She doesn't care if the victem dies as long as the perp gets taken down. The supporting cast is no better, using torture and sadism to achieve their ends...and they're the GOOD guys! In short, Angel Cop feels frighteningly like a piece of McCarthy-esque cold war propaganda. Avoid this if quality is important to you. Last updated Tuesday, January 22 2002. | ||||||||
