A.D. Police:To Protect And Serve...
Years ago, when DVDs were beginning to replace VHS tapes, I picked up the DVD version of the reboot of A.D. Police: To Protect And Serve...
A.D. Police saga (To Protect and Serve) is a new version of the classic prequel. Although I have the DVD box set, I'm not really a big fan of the remake. It's just that the box set was cheaper than buying the VHS version. This was released at a time when most of the major anime companies in the U.S. were transitioning from VHS to DVD-only production.
The character designs in this remake are a sizable departure from the original series and not altogether a good departure. Although I found the music enjoyable, I still like the classic version better. This is not really the best example of the BGC universe, but, the box set was reasonably priced and although it was somewhat disappointing, it wasn't entirely a complete waste of time. Overall, I would give A.D. Police: To Protect And Serve a 2 out of 5.
The A.D. Police saga, the awesome spin-off of the hit anime Bubblegum Crisis: Tokyo 2040!
As the current crime wave in Genom City escalates, pressure mounts for the A.D. Police to stop the growing number of mutating cyborgs known as VOOMERS. Throughout this crisis, the personal relationships between members of the elite squad of robot hunters are strained to the breaking point.
Special Officer Kenji Sasaki makes an uncommon leap of faith when reluctantly accepting Hans Kleif as his new partner. But he must still fight his own personal demons if he is ever going to survive the threat that faces the A.D. Police and he needs to get to the bottom of this techno-mystery and keep the VOOMERS from turning Genom City into a high-tech wasteland.
