Angel Cop Complete OVA Series

Angel Cop is a great OVA series from a bygone era which was the 80s and 90s anime golden era. The animation is amazing. The story overall is entertaining. It was the first anime I owned on VHS back in the 90s which I love to bits so my view on the overall OVA is a bit biased.When it originally was released it had some controversial parts in the story namely antisemitic part on the plot. Stuff that was removed from the script in later releases before it was dubbed. This Blu-Ray has the cleaned up version as default as well the cleaned up subtitles but also has the original unedited subtitles if you want to view the anime as it was originally released. As well has a brief history of the controversy of the original script and how it got changed shortly after. Very informative and gives great perspective on that part of Japan's history.Overall Angel Cop is a great action packed OVA series with classic 80s/90s anime violence and amazing animation at times. I would always recommend this anime to anyone who loves that kind of stuff. The ending will feel a bit abrupt as the production went through some bumps over it's production life. The political intrigue almost feels more relevant today than it did back when this was released. With theme of unchecked capitalism using both authoritarian and marxist movements to destabilize countries for personal gain.

Faithfully restorated release, time to send my old VHS to retirement.

Ah the 90s. Bringing you shock value anime loaded with senseless and irrational violence to sell. Violence Jack, Genocyber; both trash. Angel Cop at least tries and moderately succeeds. The most common anime to this is AD Police, where you have a police force dedicated to terrorist by Cyber/demons/terminators? It never explains it and the plot itself is not that great. The art is very good and the action delivers when it gets going. The characters are all one dimensional, non evolving, but well animated.One thing that really confuses me is that there is not a single sex scene in this entire anime. For such an exploitation film, it is pretty conservative in that respect.For better or for worse, this is the best of the trash. This and Apocalypse Zero (Which is hilarious gore) are probably the best products of the gore anime of the 90s.The blu-ray is very clear but you can see the age of the anime, sound, quality and extras are in there.As has been mentioned, there is an Anti Semitic message in the last 2 episodes, However, it all really adds to the ridiculousness of the whole storyline. Everyone is bad, Jews are trying to take over the world, The terrorists have a heart, but those terrorists are the bad ones, Angel Cop has no ability, character, or characteristic other than being pretty; and you get amazing dialog like, "Don't underestimate Japanese Science."OVerall, this is enjoyable if you want so trash. Good trash.

Angel Cop is an OVA (Original Video Animation) series that is worth a watch, the animation, style, and action were well worth it. Furthermore, the package came as described which really made an impact as some companies do not take the proper procedure to ensure the package is safely delivered in tact. The only two things I could complain about are one, the story. As the story from my personal point of view seems to have a few consistencies that deal with the setting or plot of the story. And the second thing that I mainly was saddened by was the ending, as it just felt rushed and characters seemed to have a whole 360 degree turn on their personalities, thoughts as well as actions. But all in all a good series to watch.

Insanely good OVA, good being operative word. They do not hold back in this series of episodes. Depictions of telekinetic powers affecting normal human’s bodies in intense and realistically drawn ways are recurring through this series. The English dub is filled with heavily NYC accented lines which adds to the charm I’d say.Overall in its depiction of psychic powers it majorly leans towards Akira rather than mob psycho.

I'm a big fan of this series. So far they deleted the episodes on YouTube due to copyright and when I found out that Angel Cop was on Blu-ray, I had to jump on it! It gives me great memories looking back at this series and I'm so happy that I bought this series.

A little slow in spots but overall a kick ass anime the way they used to make them, might offended you if you're Jewish.

Awesome came brand new and on time. These older anime are the best. New stuff can't hold up to it.
