If you want a relatively laid-back cop show with a memorable cast, light romance, and a lovely 90s soundtrack to sit down and relax to, this is the show for you. The show is a continuation of the OVA, so I would recommend watching that beforehand, as it introduces four of the main cast.
The cast consists of four girls and a gentle giant of a man. Each of them has strong personalities, which the episodic nature of the show really helps to bring out without getting too caught up in romance. That being said, the show's overarching story is the romance between one of the main girls and the guy; this romance is spread throughout the show, with few episodes dedicated entirely to the romance. As with the main pair, the other characters do get some episodes, albeit fewer episodes, about their lov…

Surpassed my expectation!!! This is a good anime by itself and even better for classic TV standard. So If you are feeling nostalgic and want to sit down and enjoy a slow burn 90's TV anime, this could be the one on your list.
At first I thought this is just a motor fun's wet dream type of anime that I don't really care about, and the classic old TV cartoon format with self contained episodes really didn't help. And since the protagonists are two female buddy cops but set in Japan* this is probably going to be a stay true to the reality boring generic slice of life or an unrealistic over the top boring slice of life anime , so I have thought...
But in fact this is a slow burn character driven show, each characters have their own quirks and they are likable, believable, and relatable, and…

逮捕しちゃうぞ - Taiho Shichauzo is an excellent slice-of-life comedy series about two female traffic cops, based on the popular manga series of the same name by Kōsuke Fujishima. This review covers both the four-episode OVA (1994 - 1995) and the later adapted television series (1996 - 1997). In my humble opinion, the series is definitely worth watching!
Story: A simple but profound portrayal of human warmth and values (7/10).
A police comedy about the everyday life of two police officers, Natsumi Tsujimoto and Miyuki Kobayakawa, in the traffic division of the fictional Bokutou police station in Tokyo's Sumida district. The everyday cases may seem unspectacular, but they put the actors in exciting situations. Moreover, it is both believable and entertaining to see how the small everyday disaster…

Here I find myself writing a review for a underrated show that from what I noticed doesn't get the love and attention that it needs. Well let's get on with it!
You're under arrest is a blast from the 90's providing everything that I wanted from this kind of show: Characters who steal your heart with their personality and charisma, jazzy ost during each episode and catchy op and ed song that makes you dance, unique animation style used during the 90's(glittering water animation is one my favorites) and finally a solid story that gives you a nostalgic feeling if you were a kid of the 90's.
The sound of the car engine running on the highway, the jazzy ost that accompanies it, a monologue filled with substance and depth told into the sunset, a dialogue line that emphasize the characters trait…

Hokey smokes, that was awesome. Only in the world of anime can policewomen beat out goddesses
You're Under Arrest! Its been one anime that I've been meaning to watch for years and years and have simply ignored for one reason or another. I knew all about it being the first child of Kosuke Fujishima (who also fathered another of my favorite all time franchises, Ah! My Goddess), and I had heard good things, but I just never ever bothered.
For the past week, I bothered.
Fourty-seven episodes never went by so quick. I was simply blown away at the sheer "goodness" of this series. From amazingly well developed characters to the quirk 90s fusion jazz soundtrack, there wasn't a single bad thing I could find here. Granted, there were leaps of logic at times, and a few episodes were just way too c…
