Burst Angel, also known as Bakuretsu Tenshi, takes place in Japan in a not-too-distant future. A rise in criminal activity after a devastating earthquake has forced the Japanese government to legalize firearms for citizens to use in self-defense as well as establishing the Recently Armed Police Taskforce (RAPT), to hunt down criminals with lethal force.The series follows an Amazon Brigade of mercenaries called Bailan, who have recently hired Ordinary High-School Student Kyohei Tachibana as their cook. The team's missions put them against mutated monsters with glowing brains, Humongous Mecha with glowing brains, and a corrupt RAPT (which is, naturally, involved with the whole "glowing brains" issue).Notable for being directed by Koichi Ohata, although it shares relatively little of the qualities of his other (in)famous works. | |

| Burst Angel / int_11459bd4 | comment |
Offscreen Teleportation: Meg somehow ends up on top of the departing R.A.P.T. train in episode three, despite being shown on the station platform just a few seconds ago. It's rather jarring as it's not played for laughs; it's as if the production team just left a scene out. | |

Accent Adaptation | |
| Burst Angel / int_29718d62 | comment |
Accent Adaptation: In the English dub, Osaka is pretty much Texas. In the DVD commentary, this was explained as almost being out of necessity because of the strong Western influences of the story. And frankly the Osaka arc seems like it was actively written with Texas in mind. Also of note is the fact that up until this point Funimation had tried as hard as possible to avoid doing this in any other shows. | |

Parental Abandonment: The main four have this. Meg never talks about where her parents are, beyond a melodramatic aside that someone with her genes shouldn't be in poverty. Amy's aren't mentioned either and she seems to be self-reliant. Jo doesn't remember if she has any, and Sei's got her grandfather without her father and mother showing up. | |

Bait-and-Switch Lesbians | |
| Burst Angel / int_34f9fe21 | comment |
Bait-and-Switch Lesbians: The manga that serves as a prequel to the series has Meg basically out-and-out in love with Jo and desperately wanting to consummate their relationship at any opportunity. Jo gives some hints that she at, the very least, appreciates Meg's company and support. This is very toned down to the point of disappearing by the time the series begins and Kyohei is added. And the same episode where we find out that Sei is a Mafia Princess actually has Meg very interested in the handsome men that have shown up, which leaves her somewhere between this trope and Ambiguously Bi. | |

| Burst Angel / int_40217655 | comment |
Faux Action Girl: Meg. She gets a Small Girl, Big Gun shot in the opening sequence, and another during the Osaka arc, but is otherwise firmly entrenched in the Damsel in Distress role. One of the trailers for the show actually showed her beating up mooks with the same skill she showed in the Bai-Lan party episode. Averted in a small segment of the OVA that takes place five years after the end of the series, showing a more competent and more badass Meg. | |

Fake-Out Opening | |
| Burst Angel / int_50f17484 | comment |
Fake-Out Opening: The prequel manga's first panels are all about Takeru's terrible school life —how he gets bullied while no one bats an eye and his teachers tell him to suck it (his bullies are the sons of influential people). Then, he finds Meg nursing an injured Jo in his bed and we go to high-octane action scenes almost nonstop while the focus shifts entirely to Jo and Meg. Thus revealing that this is not a harem Teen Drama but an action-packed, Sci Fi yuri. | |

Undressing the Unconscious | |
| Burst Angel / int_6844f0d5 | comment |
Undressing the Unconscious: After Meg and Jo escape an R.A.P.T. ship by diving into the ocean, they end up on an island and Meg strips off hers and Jo's clothing and leaves them out to dry so they won't get sick and get them under some blankets. When Jo awakens, she only has a few moments of peace before they're attacked and she has to go on a Full-Frontal Assault. | |

Line-of-Sight Alias: Jo must give Takane her full name, so after seeing someone eating some rice with curry, she comes up with "Jo Kareraisu" ("Jo Curry Rice"). This may also happen because Jo has Only One Name. (In the English version, Jo says "Jo Mamma".) | |

Villain Has a Point: The son of a mafia group rivaling Bai-Lan tries to steal the emblem of their clan to reunite the two factions, saying that it belongs to someone who acts by their own decisions and has adapted to the modern times rather than clinging onto family obligations and old traditions. It comes back later when most of Bai-Lan turns on Sei and teams up with RAPT to support their interests. Under the guidance of her grandfather, and already disgusted by the jobs she did for RAPT, she decides to hunt down both groups. | |

Big Damn Heroes | |
| Burst Angel / int_eb81c601 | comment |
Big Damn Heroes: While Meg tends to be useless in fights, she pulls through for Jo where it counts. Their partnership started because Meg stopped her from being messily eaten in their younger days. | |

Mafia Princess: Sei is the daughter of a powerful Chinese family who runs a criminal syndicate called the White Orchid Clan. She's much more benevolent than most other examples. | |

Redemption Equals Death | |
| Burst Angel / int_f1492605 | comment |
Redemption Equals Death: Maria finally breaks free of her mental conditioning just to get gunned down by a squad of R.A.P.T. cybots. Her only consolation is that she distracted them long enough for Jo and Meg to fall off the boat. | |

Evil Twin: Maria to Jo. Maria's "evil" because she's still obeying R.A.P.T. and doesn't have free will. | |

Everyone Is Armed | |
| Burst Angel / int_f56d2c81 | comment |
Everyone Is Armed: In this setting, the Japanese gun laws were insanely relaxed in response to ever-increasing levels of crime. This means everyone can legally own and carry firearms at all times. | |

Fork Fencing | |
| Burst Angel / int_fedd4e87 | comment |
Fork Fencing: Played with in the Osaka arc. Jo mouths off to Takane one too many times in the Hanshin P.D.'s holding cell, and Takane tries to stab Jo with her bokutó. Eating a meal at the time, Jo catches the sword with her fork and holds it in place with one hand. | |

Perpetual Poverty: While Jo and Meg were running Jack of All Trades in the manga, they were never able to get enough money to cover their expenses. This was mainly due to Jo's aforementioned More Dakka habit. | |
