(Summary based on the entry on [[That Other Wiki]])
 
'''''Burst Angel''''', also known as ''[[Bakuretsu Tenshi]]'', takes place [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future|in the near future]]. A rise in criminal activity after a devastating earthquake has forced the Japanese government to allow citizens to possess firearms, while establishing the Recently Armed Police Taskforce (RAPT), essentially [[Law Enforcement, Inc.]]. The series follows an [[Amazon Brigade]] of mercenaries, who have recently hired [[Ordinary High School Student]] Kyohei Tachibana as their cook. The team's missions put them against [[Body Horror|mutated monsters with glowing brains]], [[Humongous Mecha]] with glowing brains, and a corrupt RAPT (which is, naturally, involved with the whole "glowing brains" issue).
 
Notable for being directed by [[MD Geist|Koichi]] [[Genocyber|Ohata]], although it shares relatively little of the [[Gorn|qualities]] of his other [[So Bad It's Good|(in)]]famous works.

* [[Accent Adaptation]] - In the English dub, Osaka is pretty much Texas. In the DVD commentary, this was explained as almost being out of necessity because of the strong Western influences of the story. And frankly the Osaka arc seems like it was actively written with Texas in mind.
