Please note that this story is a sequel of City Hunter,so it contains spoilers!

Angel Heart tells the story of Glass Heart, a girl risen as a professional killer whose life is all about killing people. Tired of her life,she commits suicide: however, she survives thanks to a heart-transplant. The heart of Makimura Kaori,City Hunter's partner,dead in a car accident. When Glass Heart wakes up,she feels she had to go to Shinjuku,while Kaori's feeling starts to overwhelm her, pushing her to find a certain Ryo Saeba...

The starting plot is really involving. It hurts to know Kaori's dead,City Hunter isn't working anymore, and the story really looks ... interesting. However, it soons become a following of predictable-plot episodes,where nothing really happens. Moreover,there are some remakes of City Hunter's happening,like Kaori's sister meeting,which are now rewrited,distructing the nice feeling they had in City Hunter. It's a thing I really hated: as a sequel it should have respected the original story: maybe a shortage of ideas?

Adivce: watch just the first episodes or watch this anime if you are a great City Hunter fan.
