In 2100, ex-cop Takako leads an all-female security team against terrorism in Japan's high-tech port city.
In 2100, the newly built Bayside City serves as Japan's premier international port.

As the city faces rising threats, the elite all-female team must navigate a dangerous web of crime and intrigue while balancing their personal lives with their high-stakes missions.
In 2100, the newly built Bayside City serves as Japan's premier international port. The Angel Arms Company is established by a former policewoman named Takako, to help wage war on terrorism with armed security suits. When the mayor is assassinated, the women of Angel Arms end up protecting the evil crime-lord Hassan, in hopes that his information will help bring down a global terror ring. Takako's back is to the wall as a band of criminals plot to kill Hassan, and the organization's leader is revealed to be the former lover of Angel Arms' own Alisa. (Source: ANN)
