Cyber City Oedo 808 is a series of three stories featuring three convicted criminals that are forced to work for the government in order to reduce their sentences, each story features a different character as the lead.
The stories themselves aren't bad and I'm not offended by swearing but the producers seem to think excessive swearing makes their stories edgy ( especially during the first episode ) but honestly it just gets annoying after a while.
Cyber City Oedo 808 is worth a look but I wouldn't say it's essential viewing.
