I've never watched the original which was two series of 8 episdoes, but one of the first anime I watched was 2040, with 26 episodes.
Essentially after a massive quake that demolish tokyo, the largest mega company called GENOM rushed in providing their artificial organic lifeforms called Boomers to rebuild and act as a labor class to humanity.
However now and then the Boomers go rogue and begin destroying everything assimilating all things electronic. The government and GENOM deny they even exist, but create the AD Police to fight them, but pretty much they can't stop them.
The Knight Sabers however, a vigilante group of four woman in powered suits fight and destroy the boomers while waging an underground war against GENOM and the corrupt govt.
The plot soon emerges and everything goes to hell with every single boomer going rogue.
... nothing to do with bubblegum, then? o_o
