Information

Description

Cyber City Oedo 808” narrates in its three episodes the professional careers of Sengoku, Gogul and Benten. What’s special about them: until recently, the three were incarcerated in an orbital prison to serve their century-long sentences. But in the high-tech city of Oedo, the Cyber Police have developed a revolutionary, albeit questionable, program: Prisoners, of all people, are being used to hunt down criminals. To keep them on the lookout for criminal enforcers, they are given a precarious collar: if they refuse to work, dawdle or try to remove it, the collar and its wearer are blown up.

And so it is that three more criminals are sent to put an end to their kind. Sengoku must rescue 50,000 people trapped in the city’s largest skyscraper because the central computer has been hijacked, though the mission doesn’t go as planned. Gogul, on the other hand, has to deal with a military cyborg while investigating a murder and meets an old-time partner. Finally, Benten has to deal with the insane scheme of an individual who wants to solve the riddle of immortality and even comes up against a supernatural being.
»Cyber City Oedo 808« erzählt in seinen drei Episoden den speziellen beruflichen Werdegang von Sengoku, Goggles und Benten. Das Besondere an ihnen: Bis vor kurzem saßen die drei in einem orbitalen Gefängnis ein, um dort ihre jahrhundertelange Haftstrafe zu verbüßen. Doch in der hochtechnologischen Stadt Oedo hat die Cyber-Polizei ein revolutionäres, allerdings auch fragwürdig erscheinendes Programm entwickelt: Ausgerechnet Häftlinge werden eingesetzt, um Verbrecher zu Strecke zu bringen. Damit diese kriminellen Vollstrecker spuren, bekommen sie ein prekäres Halsband verpasst: Bei Arbeitsverweigerung, Trödelei oder dem Versuch, es zu entfernen, fliegen Halsband samt Träger kurzerhand in die Luft.

So kommt es, dass drei weitere Kriminellen ihresgleichen das Handwerk legen sollen. Sengoku muss im größten Wolkenkratzer der Stadt 50.000 eingesperrte Menschen retten, weil der Zentralcomputer gekapert wurde; nach Plan verläuft die Mission allerdings nicht gerade. Goggles hingegen bekommt es mit einem Cyborg des Militärs zu tun, während er in einem Mord ermittelt, und trifft dabei auf einen Partner aus alten Zeiten. Und schließlich muss sich Benten mit dem irrsinnigen Vorhaben eines Einzelnen, der das Rätsel der Unsterblichkeit lösen will, herumschlagen und bekommt es dabei sogar mit einem übernatürlichen Wesen zu tun.
