Bubblegum crisis

Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040 was a bloody good series.... not only was the animation sleek and appealing, but the hardsuit designs were awesome. The story starts off in Neo Tokyo with Lina, a country girl willing to give the city life a go. She meets Priss Asagiri (my favourite female character in a series) when Priss knocks her off her feet with her motorbike. From then on the story rapidly accelerates and the mysterious yet deadly Knight Sabers emerge. A group of vigilantes who tackle the ever present problem of mutating rogue voomers.
The team is headed by Silia, a strong-willed woman with a mysterious past that is only revealed near the end. Nene, the hacker child prodigy is the youngest of the group. Priss, the lone wolf of the group is the lead singer of a rock band, and easily the best fighter of the team. This series is action packed and humourous, yet still mature enough to appeal to it's older market. I personally thought the series started off great...... but the last couple of episodes were disappointing..... they seemed rushed..... but the plot twists kept me intrigued right till the end and the music wasn't bad either!
