Mecha is because she is a cyborg.


Mylene Hoffman, a beautiful cyborg spy with the codename "009-1" lives in an alternative world where the cold war never ended, continuously on-going for 140 years. The world is split into two factions, the West and the East block. A masquerade of peace between the two is slowly dissipated as the conflict occurs. Through politics, the two factions battle over supremacy over technology to threats of a nuclear attack. Mylene Hoffman, teaming up with three other agent, gets surrounded by deception, chaos and rivalry as she carries out missions assigned by her superiors.


Seems James Bond like to me.

James Bond... James Bond... Wow I got nothing.

Lot of modern assassins but no secret agents, I can think of quite of few shows that involve espionage but nowhere near the main focus.

Mecha is used for cyborgs , androids, mech suit armor (Ironman type armor). DBZ only has one arc dealing with cyborgs and non of the z team are cyborgs or androids. GITS is tagged mecha yet has no giant robots because she is a cyborg http://myanimelist.net/anime/43/Ghost_in_the_Shell

@hazerddex I know but anime without any piloted robots but with cyborgs or androids fall under mecha.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mecha

In Japanese, mecha encompasses all mechanical objects, including cars, guns, computers, and other devices. In this sense, it is extended to humanoid, human-sized robots and such things as the boomers from Bubblegum Crisis, the similar replicants of Blade Runner; even cyborgs can be referred to as mecha.

If you want something along the lines of the old, cheesy Bond films, then go for the shorts series "Strange+".

thus we have established that the mecha tag is a redundant tag and serves no function also this is getting offtopic

I think once there is a main focus on any kind of robots or robot suits then it applies. Agreed this is getting offtopic.

The Golgo 13 films are pretty much that.

Probably not what you're looking for, but L/R: Licensed by Royal is a child-friendly take on the whole secret agent thing.

I've checked both L/R's and Senkou no Night Raid's MAL pages out; seems to be what I've been looking for.

Thanks.

I've watched the Read or Die OVA and it was great. I loved it.

In this case of Bond-esqueness, it didn't pass for it.
