Burn-Up Excess(1997)

Burn-Up Excess is an anime series following Team Warrior, an elite anti-terror unit within the Neo-Tokyo Police force. The squad comprises Rio, a perpetually broke operative; Maya, obsessed with firepower; Lillica, their tech genius; Nanvel, a systems expert; Yuji, a pilot with questionable habits; and their mysterious leader Maki. Together they tackle high-stakes missions—bodyguard assignments, arms trafficking busts, and protecting experimental weaponry—while repeatedly clashing with Ruby, a dangerous operative working for shadowy power brokers. As the series progresses, the team uncovers the truth behind their own formation, Rio's unlikely recruitment, and Maki's traumatic past. Burn-Up Excess blends action-packed espionage with character-driven drama, building toward a climactic confrontation that reshapes everything the unit believes about themselves and their enemies.
