Episode synopsis
Who let the transvestites out? After being released from prison, they are still searching for enough money for their Moroccan sex change holiday. Which is where Nanvel comes in. Her new invention, the optical diet machine, lets the user forget about all those rigorous diet schemes and just plain cheat. Wanting the machine for their own nefarious needs (don't ask), the transvestites kidnap Nanvel, forcing her to work for them. Too bad they didn't plan on taking Rio along for the ride...
About Burn-Up Excess
Follows the exploits of Team Warrior, a special anti-terror wing of the Neo-Tokyo Police force. Team Warrior is comprised of the habitually broke Rio, gun-crazy Maya, computer specialist Lillica, tech-expert Nanvel, pilot/voyeur Yuji, and is led by the enigmatic Maki. The team faces a number of missions, ranging from bodyguard duty, breaking up robbery and arms rackets, and providing security for a very powerful tank. Rio and company continually thwart the terrorist aims of Ruby, an operative for a shadowy cabal of powerful men. Before the final showdown, the circumstances behind the formation of Team Warrior, how the precocious Rio came to join it, and Maki's painful past will be revealed.
