Armitage III;
Episode 1: Electro Blood
A deadly weapon under leather. A stormy soul behind sunglasses. Artificial romance. Part one.
THE PLACE: Mars, 2179. A world where people live among highly developed humanoid robots. When the murder of singing star Kelly McCanon shockingly reveals that she's a "Third Type" robot, a much more advanced robot than the "Seconds" currently in use, the humans go on the rampage. The Martian Police Department (MPD) calls out Ross Sylibus, a recently transferred cop from Chicago, and his partner Armitage, the irreverent 19 year old Martian born detective with a cool attitude, a wardrobe to shock and a death defying secret. The fast cut ultra hip opening credits and hard hitting music set the tone for one of anime's coolest rides. This series delivers a superb plot guarenteed to put you on the edge of your seat, while the stylized animation glues you to the screen....
