The year is 2016. The place is New Port City. The Tank Police are still waging a desperate war on crime, and their tactics are still highly questionable. Mayor Weatherby is trying to pass a bill banning certain weapons from the city, which makes her a target of the Dai Nippon Geiken Corporation, who are now manufacturing mobile weapons that even the Tank Police may not be able to stop. Dai Nippon Geiken is also connected with the murder of Leona Ozaki's former partner, Charon Ishira, making the battle all the more personal for the Tank Police's number one officer, who will stop at nothing to avenge her partner. But can she pay the high price revenge calls for?

Season 1:
Leona is causing the usual ruckus, destroying an entire city block to catch on criminal. As her teams gets yet another berating from the bumbling and high-pressured police chief, a jackass of an observer shows up.
An old friend of Leona's is mysteriously killed. Leona takes a leave of absence to hunt down the murderer. Somehow the mayor and the chief never realized that Leona is least suitable member for any kind of undercover or vaguely subtle work.
A gigantic automated truck filled with explosives races straight for the center of the city, running over everything in its path.
Leona's dear Bonaparte gets stolen and in tracking it down, Leona finds out that it was taken by the Puma Sisters because a researcher had hidden some top-secret data about new virtual narcotics in the tank.
Another version of the spider-vehicle attacks a prison, breaking out the killer of Leona's friend. That is followed by a string of red-herrings and false alarms for terrorist attacks. The Tank Police are mobilized and spread rather thin.
The traitor was planning to defect to another evil mega-corporation, killing the mayor was kind part of the deal, he finds out that the mayor is still alive and sends two spider-bots to attack the hospital where the mayor is being treated.
