Watched this move last night. It's absolutely pure reactionary ideology on screen, and its fucking awesome and hilarious. Crime happens because psychos with axes just want to do crime, and the only way to fight crime is to kill all of them. Extremely cheesy montages and action sequences with ridiculously high body counts - this movie is fucking awesome. The dialogue is, many times, perplexing and ridiculous. Highly recommend watching this

    What was that one anime that was highly influenced by Cobra? Where there's an actual communist gang and a bunch of cops kill them and there's explosions everywhere? Late 80s I think. I watched it once and it was the most explicitly fascist anime I've ever seen and it was extremely funny

      The story of Angel Cop follows Angel and Raiden, two cops in the Special Security Force fighting a takeover of the Japanese government by the communist terrorist group Red May.

      Ah, sounds like dumb, bog standard reactionary drivel.

      It's eventually revealed that Red May was started by Jewish bankers as a means to turn Japan into a toxic waste dump.

      :wut:

      Apparently, the writer went on to work on 2003's Fullmetal Alchemist.
