Synopsis

Follows the exploits of Team Warrior, a special anti-terror wing of the Neo-Tokyo Police force. Team Warrior is comprised of the habitually broke Rio, gun-crazy Maya, computer specialist Lillica, tech-expert Nanvel, piliot/voyeur Yuji, and is led by the enigmatic Maki. The team faces a number of missions, ranging from bodyguard duty, breaking up robbery and arms rackets, and providing security for a very powerful tank. Rio and company continually thwart the terrorist aims of Ruby, an operative for a shadowy cabal of powerful men. Before the final showdown, the circumstances behind the formation of Team Warrior, how the precocious Rio came to join it, and Maki's painful past will be revealed.

I personally find this series much better than Burn Up W.

(In comparison to Burn UP W)

OVERALL:
the episodes are much more broad in origin; they aren't just restricted to the cops fighting crimes, they are more interactive amongst other characters and people.
It's also funnier. The jokes are much more outrageous and will get you cracking up, although most of them are sex jokes and are centered around Rio being a blonde stereotype. if you don't get offended by this show's crude humor, you will find this show hilarious.
it is an equal blend of comedy, action and also a bit of drama.

STORYLINE:
it's clever how generally every read more

Recommendations

Both are the continuation in the early "girls with guns saga" (the term didn't exist back then). Mainly girls are in the center of the story, and both their authoritarian handlings of stuff haven't changed much, but it's still funny though.
Burn Up instantly gave me the Excel Saga feeling. The female protagonists are both blond, hyperactive and quite stupid girls which are short of money and always hungry. Also, both work in some kind of organization (Excel=ACROSS, Rio=police). Municipal Force Daitenzin in ES and police in BUE both have the goal of protecting the city (even if they usually fail).
Both anime have comedy, randomness and action. They also are both set in non-existent cities.
