What happens

Burn-Up Excess is a Japanese anime television series based on Burn-Up! OVA franchise by AIC. This series was directed by Shinichiro Kimura and animated by Magic Bus. It aired from 1997 to 1998 for a total of 13 episodes, exclusively through DirecTV. Four volumes were released on VHS and DVD in North America by ADV Films. The series is a tongue-in-cheek look at a special operations unit in the Tokyo police force called "Team Warrior", with large amounts of fan service thrown in for good measure, exemplified by the inclusion of ADV's trademarked "Jiggle Counter" on the DVDs along with Plastic Little.
