Solty Rei - 2: A New Dawn

Title:Solty Rei
Episode:2: A New Dawn
Synopsis
Roy, who is not particularly popular with the other hunters, is visiting Miranda in her office when he narrowly saves her from being shot by a sniper. Since the police are indifferent, he agrees to serve as her bodyguard. His own apartment is in the same building as hers, and in his room he finds the strange, green-haired girl who has been following him around. Roy only wants to get rid of her, but Miranda and Kasha are more sensitive. "I don't know... anything" the girl says in response to their many questions. They take her out shopping for some new clothes, and at a rooftop cafe the girl foils another assasination attempt. While they are all being questioned at a police station, agents Integra Martin and Sylvia Ban of the "RUC Security Division" enter the room--and arrest the girl for "Industrial Spying"!
Comments
Roy seems to resent Solty as a threat to his efforts to find out what happened to his daughter who vanished during the "Blast Fall". The sniper described Solty as a "Resemble"--presumably a robot that resembles a genuine human. There also seems to be a line of "Resemble" artificial body parts, for people injured in the Blast Fall, I would guess. Solty definitely has superhuman capabilities--could she have somehow hacked the RUC computer to divert suspicion from herself? Surely we haven't heard the last of the RUC Security Division. This show features a spirited, stylish OP sequence, and nice artwork. I notice a curious mix of 'fifties autos and futuristic mecha. Altogether, a neat show worth taking notes on!
