In the year 2035 Tokyo was quickly rebuilt from the Third Quicksand Disaster, during which the city sunk into a quagmire, by using high-output Powered Armor called "Willwears". However, these often fall into the wrong hands, thus the National Police Agency established the Fifth Special Public Security Section to deal with such miscreants, using their own specialized set of Willwears.However, one particular unit — Unit 8 of the Third Mobile Assault Division, simply known as "The Eighth" — is notorious among the police brass for its reckless tactics and the resulting collateral damage, thus they were assigned to a particularly bad part of the city.Into the scene comes newly-minted, straitlaced Assistant Inspector Asami Kazari, who officially serves as the high command's eyes and ears on The Eighth, assessing their worthiness as law enforcers, even as she makes it her mission to whip the misfits into shape and truly make them a force for good.Active Raid: Special Public Security Fifth Division Third Mobile Assault Eighth Unit (アクティヴレイド 機動強襲室第八係, "Active Raid: Kidou Kyoushuushitsu Dai-Hachigakari") is a Science Fiction action series by Production IMS, directed by Gorou Taniguchi (Code Geass), written by Toku veteran Naruhisa Arakawa (Kamen Rider Kuuga and Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger), and featuring character designs by Shun Saeki (Food Wars!) and Asako Nishida (Love Live!). It consists of 24 episodes aired separately on the Winter and Summer 2016 blocks. The series can be streamed at Crunchyroll. | |

Secret Identity | |
| Active Raid / int_112890b3 | comment |
Secret Identity: The members of the Fifth Division are all testing experimental weaponry, so making sure their faces are always hidden is very important. Episode 8 introduces a mysterious red Willwear nicknamed the "Ultimaid" whose pilot is completely unknown. It's a USDF prototype piloted by Souichirou's ex-girlfriend Miho. | |

Hidden Agenda Villain | |
| Active Raid / int_161fa3b8 | comment |
Hidden Agenda Villain: Logos, an enigmatic organization apparently headed by someone only known as Mythos, has been shown dispatching illegally-modified or outright stolen Willwears to create havoc around Tokyo. Their purpose for doing so and their ultimate objective, if any, is unknown. Funasaka speculates in "Ulti-maid-ronde" that they may be setting up such weird scenarios in order to gather data on Willwears. | |

Real Robot Genre | |
| Active Raid / int_1e10069c | comment |
Real Robot Genre: A mild example. The Willwear pilots are police officers, the units themselves run out of batteries very quickly, and they require a specialized launcher in order to get to their destinations in a timely manner. The giant mecha Morgan and Drew are a more overt example as essentially gigantic humanoid construction equipment; their primary advantage in battle over a Willwear is their sheer mass, they burn through fuel extremely quickly, have tank treads on their feet for more efficient long-distance movement, and their every movement is slightly jerky and shuddering, like actual hydraulic-driven machinery. | |

Obstructive Bureaucrat: The Eighth often has to deal with these, as they can only deploy on the request of the local police force or the government, and sometimes they're too concerned about their public image to risk calling in the Eighth. The corrupt governor even uses this to hinder Unit 8 from arresting Dog. | |

The opening to episode 11 adds a scene where all six of Unit 8's Willwear are seen flying together. The ending credits also change, showcasing scenes from each episodes. And episode 11 replaces LIKO with Mythos' apple logo, acting exactly like her! | |

Even firing their weapons is not done without authorization. The worst they do is grouse about it, but they obey their orders when Mission Control says so. | |

| Active Raid / int_4159744 | comment |
The Magic Poker Equation: Played extremely straight during episode 5, when every winning hand was full house, flush, straight flush, or three of a kind. Poker "skill" apparently gives players not only the ability to get high value hands, but to somehow know what they had before the final card was revealed, as they would call their wining hand before flipping the last card. | |

Vast Bureaucracy: Unit 8 has to deal with this constantly. They require vast amounts of regulations to be met before they can even use physical force on already rampaging criminals, and even more regulations must be met before they can even use weapons (which are non-lethal items like nets and sticky guns!). And after the fact they end up having to apologize to all of the different district police chiefs they operate in for the damages caused (despite the fact these district police called them in to handle it in the first place). | |

Wham Episode: Episode 10. Hachijou turns himself into police, claiming to be the leader of Logos. The top brass, convinced they have the Big Bad in custody, decide the case is closed and disband the Eighth Unit. Hinata's world is falling apart since her crush, Hachijou, has now been revealed to be a terrorist, and her sister Rin admits to her that she's been lying to her about her job all this time as she is actually the boss of the Eighth Unit. As all this is going on, the Japanese government is set to unveil a grand new project to begin reclaiming the devastated quicksand district. Mythos finally puts his ultimate plan into action by broadcasting a false earthquake alert, allowing him to compromise the government's Orochi matrix database and seize full control of the national Master Computer. Episode 11 as well. "All devices that have installed LIKO now belong to Mythos." Episode 12. Unit 8 uncovered intel that Mythos' sister is alive and well. The reason why she wasn't able to make contact at first is because she changed her nationality to avoid the publicity regarding the mass suicide. Episode 20 shows Inagi at league with Bird, though the former is unwilling to go along with the latter's destructive nature. | |

As You Know: Zigzagged in "Code Number 538". Since Asami just got transferred here, Chief Yamabuki starts briefing her with an overview on Willwears. However, she takes over to show off her knowledge on the matter. But since she just revealed she already knows about it, Yamabuki decides to skip it and focus on their current case, much to her chagrin. Happens again in "Poker Face of Erasure" when Asami starts asking how Poker works, but Kyoukai just emails her a text file and tells her to read it on her own. | |

Cerebus Syndrome | |
| Active Raid / int_cfdb9e17 | comment |
Cerebus Syndrome: The first 6 episodes are pretty light-hearted and wacky. It starts getting more dramatic in Episode 7 when the criminal of the week turns out to have a much more sympathetic motive for his actions than the Jerkass losers before him, and he becomes the show's first actual death when Logos hijacks his Willwear, forcing him to commit a Heroic Sacrifice to save Haruka before his Wear destroys itself. The episode ends with Haruka sobbing against Asami. The next episode isn't quite as dramatic, but it did have Souichirou's ex-girlfriend nearly kill him due to her experimental Willwear being hijacked, and her Secret Identity has seemingly been exposed to the public at the end, jeopardizing her career in the military. The episode ends with Souichirou concernedly watching her on the news as she fends off questions from reporters. | |

Humongous Mecha | |
| Active Raid / int_e6f18344 | comment |
Humongous Mecha: A pair of them, Morgan and Drew, are used as tourist attractions. They once had an actual purpose as construction and rescue vehicles, but were decommissioned for being too costly compared to Willwears. Until Morgan is hijacked by it's washed up former pilot, and Funasaka uses the opportunity to use Drew in order to combat it. | |

Ensemble Cast | |
| Active Raid / int_ec212e4d | comment |
