Summary: "There's a shooting spree in accounting"
Review: ahhh, the tongue in cheek anime genre, gotta love it aint cha, they manage to spoof everything including themselves. The two main girls, rio and maya, are overly endowned, as most pf the female characters are, but purely for humorous intent, and humerous it is.

techinically, the animation is some of the best you're likely to see from an anime series, the detail is great, althogugh it does lack in some areas like minor characters and backgrounds.

The music, is just great, wheras episodes 1 and 2 are laugh out loud funny, the second two are more serious and emotional, what is commendable is that these characters progess believably, and are consistent, its not like they are going for laughs, these are who they are.

classic scenes are evident evwrywhere, rios constipation, maya trigger happy nature and the funniest evangelion tribute/joke ever. Complete with many spoofs of mission impossible, die hard with a dash of inuendo from yugi and rio's love-hate? relationship

This is really opne for those who like their anime funny and serious with lots ofr action, a bit of everything basicly. Did you like project a-ko, slayers or tenchi? if so this is for you, its also on one disc so it s cheap, like the budgy.

why did i give it only 4 stars if i praise it so#? thats a personal peeve as to the fact that its only 4 episodes period, theyran out of budget or something and leave the series on a ambiguous note, if only adv would put up the money for a second outing for the warrior team.

Summary: Skin Dive
Review: Although this movie is an action movie, it really seems to be more of a comedy. The action scenes seem to be less than delivering and action fans will probably be disappointed. Although other more sadistic fans may enjoy the tid-bits of nudity here and there and the female exploitation. I think this movie's comedy is much more effective than the action segments. Of course, the animation is quite nice as well.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Burn Ups and Downs
Review: Burn Up W is nothing that you haven't seen before. Think of it as the futuristic Sailormoon. This story is about 3 hot female cops trying to stop a "Virtual Virus". The Names of these girls are Rio, Maki, Lilica, and the one male Yugi. There is occasional nudity not brief but hey anything is possible in anime. If you have PS2 you might want to skip this because there are problems with it playing the last 2 episodes. A few scenes in this film have blood and gore but nothing you can't handle. All in all you could enjoy this film. Oh yeah for the record don't let kids under the age of 14 see this. It might be sourta a comedy but to much adult content.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Anime Fanservice ^^
Review: Burn Up W, What can I say? Team Warrior has to uncover a conspiracy behind mind altering drugs. But the fanservice is great. Light nudity here and there but lots of jiggling cleavage and panty shots.Id recommend this and Burn Up Excess to anyone into comedy and police Anime. This DVD has great extras and plenty shots of Rio but not enough of Maya.... Anyway if you like the pervertive yet shy guy Yuji or the gun crazy Maya.Get this DVD

Summary: A better deal than VHS, but still above average.
Review: For all four episodes on one tape and in three languages, this DVD isn't really a bad deal. Burn Up Warrior follows the story of a dispatch team known as Team Warrior, which handles obscure cases that cannot be placed into specific categories. It's also impossible not to notice that Team Warrior consists mostly of large-breasted women. There's not as much nudity as one would imagine, but there's some, and plenty of bouncing to accompany it. As for sound, Burn Up W has a great opening theme song that has an easily likable tune. The dubbing for the most part sucks, but who says you need to listen to the English track? The anime itself is a cross between comedy and action, but the execution on both is only average.

Starting off with a terrorist demand for a nude bungee jump which has to be performed by the Warrior Rio, the stories feature other fun crap like an Evangelion parody and a trip to a used underwear shop. Eventually it wears down to a hard-boiled revenge story; in episode four, Team Warrior has to dispose of three deranged murderers which make for some decent fight scenes and a strangely whimsical battle theme. Alas, the main organization behind everything is never destroyed, and the grand conflict is never resolved. The DVD is by far a better deal than the VHS tapes, which have only one half-hour episode on each one.

One last note, this anime isn't rated 18 up, it would be more like 13 up. This is far from hentai, which is 18+ anime.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It has good and bad!
Review: How should i put this, it was not my cup of tea.

Babes with guns and offcourse, big assets. I really didn't like this show, but i didn't dislike it either. As you can see by the ratings i put it in a middle ground. The story was paper thin with no twists or plot changes. The girls personalities didn't have a chance to develop. And the big "assets" i talked about just doesn't work for me, it's just playing silly. Average story with a lack of character development.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Funny, Large Weapons and a trigger happy Maya (Scary)
Review: I saw the original Burn Up a month ago and decided to try this one out. It was funny at points, Maya was trigger happy the whole time and Rio had constipation. Though it was a bit short it was good. If you saw the original Burn Up and liked it then you might like to try this.

Summary: Good Anime To Start
Review: I would like to first say that this was the very first Anime I ever saw and since then I've loved it as well as a small group of other anime. The characters are funny and you've gota love that hair they have. The only boy in the show is a prick which is always nice. :) Wouldn't recommend it for small children, but for teens and adults, I STRONGLY recommend it.

Summary: A Must See!
Review: I'll admit I initially bought this anime for the "animation", but after watching it I found the plot to be just as amazing. Everything was simply superb from the great animation to the compelling plot. From all the anime titles I've seen I'm glad I got this one. It has just about everything and quite a bit of each, but don't let that keep you from seeing it!
