Tank police! You gotta love the title. The title song is repetitious and annoying, but the concept is cool. Basically what you have is a future world (2010, which isn't that far away, you know!) in which it has been deemed necessary to control some extreme crimes with tanks. Thus, a Tank Police division was made. Too bad they wreck a lot of stuff and have very big egos. 

The start of the first episode has the Chief of Police (Jesse Vogel) getting chewed out by the Mayor (Kate Harper) because the Tank Police are causing too much damage when they do their duty. Next, we jump to a scene where the Tank Police are interrogating a suspect with hand grenades. I thought this seen was pretty funny, if a little extreme. In it we also meet the heroine, Leona (Toni Barry).

Anyway, the story arc of the first two chapters is that this bad guy, Bauku (Marc Smith (I)) wants to collect some urine from a lab. So, he and his two cat girl sidekicks, Annapuna and Unipuma (Alison Dowling) go there and try to get the stuff.  There's a strip scene soon after the regular cops arrive in which you see a lot of leg, but no naughty stuff, so to speak. Then the Tank cops get there and destruction ensues.

The bad guys get their butts whupped by the new recruit and in the process the tank Leona's driving gets destroyed. Leona gets in hot water because of this since it was her boss's tank and she didn't catch the bad guys, but only scared them off.

Thus,  Bauku and his associates have to get a new weapon from their boss. The weapon turns out to be their very own tank and some funny looking eye-glass shaped, colored discs.

When the Tank Police try to chase them this time, Bauku drops the discs and the pop up when the tanks roll over them, flipping the tanks. This is kind of nasty, since the pop-up things have a phallic look to them. Fortunately, Leona has built a small fast tank that can make it past those things.

Leona saves the day again, but you'll have to watch the show to find out how she does it. 

The 2nd story arc in the series is all about Bauku. We find out that he is some kind of clone or artificial life-form and he wants a painting of himself in the nude. This story is pretty boring and weird. It talks a lot about human experimentation and such.

Anyway, Leona is involved again and she ends up being forced to help Bauku. I think there's some thinly hidden "life lessons" in this story, like finding yourself and helping your enemies. I'm not going to bother describing this set of two episodes as I rather loathed them. They were boring (for the most part) and the end was VERY confusing.

The Bad Stuff:

I kind of liked this anime, but I don't recommend it. While it has it's high points, I felt that it had too many negatives. Watch it if you need some action or just to see tanks in an anime.
