About Active Raid 2nd Season

Looking for background on Active Raid 2nd Season (アクティヴレイド -機動強襲室第八係- 2nd)? This mecha and sci-fi series by Production IMS and Orange (2016) starts out like this. At its core: The nation's capital, Tokyo, where the Space Elevator Project is proceeding at full tilt, in preparation for the summit. Established to fight crime based around Willwear, enhanced armor, is the Special Public Security Fifth Division Third Mobile Assault Eighth Unit—Unit 8 in short.

Another thread: Having saved Japan from Logos' terrorism, Unit 8 was now become really popular around the country. However, crimes misusing Willwear showed no signs of slowing down. In fact, they kept escalating.

As a mecha title, robot design, combat scale and technical spectacle are the draw. Asami Kazari (Ari Ozawa) and Takeru Kuroki (Nobunaga Shimazaki) are two of the characters you will meet early. Think of it as a pick for fans of giant robots and large-scale battles. At 12 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.
