KANKICHI RYOTSU, MAVERICK POLICE OFFICER
"KAMEARI, 3RD DISTRICT"
He's coming!
Here he comes!
Oops!
You're full of energy this morning, Ryo-san!
I'm gonna be late!
Who would park their car in a place like this?
Must be an inconsiderate jerk.
Get out of the way!
What?
Coming through!
No way!
Stop right there!
Who is that guy?
Kankichi Ryotsu.
He's the ugliest, rudest,
most irresponsible caveman in all of Kameari!
Stop that bicycle at once, you neanderthal!
Think you can catch Kankichi Ryotsu, do you?
My current speed is over 30 kilometers an hour.
40, 50...
60, 70...
80!
The rev counter is pushing into the red zone of 10,000 rpm.
Hang on for a 90-degree turn!
He's terrible.
Darn it!
"KAMEARI PARK POLICE STATION"
Yes! I made it!
I arrived on time!
All's well that ends well!
It didn't end well, Ryo-san.
You broke the window. The chief will be furious again.
I've been watering those flowers every day and they've finally bloomed.
If you touch them again, I won't forgive you.
She never stops nagging.
The chief isn't even here yet. He needs to get it together.
The person at the top should get here at least 30 minutes before the rest of us.
Ryo... Ryo-san...
What's wrong, Terai?
Ah!
Chief!
You're here bright and early.
I really admire how you commute for over two hours from way out in the sticks.
You're a role model for all police officers.
You idiot!
Why did you shout at me?
I wasn't late this morning.
I slid in a whole minute early
You moron!
Even at your age, you still behave just like a naughty kid!
How many apology letters have you had to write?
Are you trying to set a record?
That's why you can't get a wife. Live your life more steadily!
My favorite enka song says it best...
One step in one day Three steps in three days
Three steps forward And two steps backward
That's it.
Wonderful! You sang it as well as Kiyoko Suizenji!
I agree. We take three steps forward and two steps back in life.
So you may as well take one step then relax.
You idiot!
I was foolish to try to teach you to have some humility in life.
I'm getting a headache.
Finally, he's gone.
He's always calling me an idiot.
Sometimes I think it's the only word he knows.
Oh, you're back, Chief. Did you forget something?
"SALARY"
Oh, today is payday.
I don't want to give you it, but I have no choice.
Listen up, Ryotsu.
When you get some money, you shouldn't spend it right away.
You must think about the future, and use it wisely.
Yes, sir.
I can buy another radio-controlled vehicle.
What are you doing, Chief?
That's one month's worth of my sweat and tears!
It's to fix the broken door, the window and the bicycle.
He's such a tight-ass.
Never mind. This is still enough.
We've all been waiting for payday!
What?
We're here to collect the money you owe us.
Jeez, every store owner in town is here!
Damn, I guess I need to...
-Run! -Hold it!
Chief!
Terai, grab his legs!
Yes, sir.
Let me go!
Terai, get your hands off me!
Everyone, please take what you're owed.
Hands off!
Sorry, Ryo-san.
I'll take 38,000 yen for the video games and plastic models.
22,000 yen for the noodles you ate.
28,000 yen for the beer and whiskey.
Have some restraint!
Thank you.
18,000 yen for all the set meals.
3,000 yen for the fishing rod.
27,000 yen for the comic books.
Thank you very much!
"KAMEARI PARK POLICE STATION"
Only 150 yen left.
I can't survive one month with this.
It serves you right.
That's why I told you to live your life more steadily.
Chief!
I won't give you an advance!
Live on that money for one month like a man.
Oh, no!
You two mustn't lend him any money either, okay?
I cannot afford to with my mortgage payments.
Don't worry, Ryo-chan. I'm sure you can survive on that money.
Yes, don't indulge him. It's for his own sake.
Chief, please lend me 50,000 yen. Or even 30,000.
How about 20,000 yen?
10,000 then.
At least let me borrow 1,000 yen!
No way!
Skinflint!
I won't ask any of you again.
I'd rather starve to death than beg such cold-hearted people!
Okay then. Don't forget what you just said.
We won't help you if you get hungry and beg us.
I'll live a life of luxury on this 150 yen!
Like squabbling kids.
They really are.
My stomach always knows the correct time.
Hmm?
Yes! Reiko is not here.
While she's away, I can eat her lunch.
Ouch!
Who was it who'd rather starve to death than beg us for help?
Dang it! She knew my behavior patterns.
Terai, give me your lunch!
No way, this is mine.
Give it to me!
Ryo-chan, taking someone else's property is theft.
Shut up! I don't see his name written on the rice.
Hand it over!
Ryo-chan, cut it out!
-Give it here. -I said no!
Terai!
Damn you, Reiko! But I'll get it no matter what.
His passion for food is incredible.
Damn it!
If I see you again, I'll turn you into a scarf!
I'm starving.
There's gotta be something I can eat...
Yes! Rice cakes!
There's always some food if you look hard enough.
Pour in a little bit of ponzu sauce.
Oops, I added too much.
It'll be too sour now.
I'd better add some salt.
Oh, no. That's way too much.
Let's add some sugar.
Oh well, I guess this'll have to do.
As a final touch, some tonkatsu sauce.
My signature hotpot is complete!
I found some leftover rice cakes from New Year's.
What? Weren't they covered with mold already?
So? Mushrooms are mold too, but you eat them, right?
I added some hydrangea leaves for perfect nutritional balance.
Are hydrangea leaves even edible?
Sure they are. If they look nice, they must taste good too.
It's lacking a bit of color.
Ryo-san, those are Reiko-san's flowers.
Color is important in cooking.
Time to eat.
Huh?
Ryo-chan, what have you done?
I told you not to touch them again!
You barbarian!
Damn it.
At least leave some change for me. Skinflints!
I'm so hungry.
That smells like...
Yes, that's it!
It's Junpei and Kappei, the tofu maker's kids.
Nice, Junpei!
-Go for it, Junpei! -Come on!
Keep it up!
Well, well, well. Having fun, kids?
Hey, you're pretty skillful.
That takoyaki looks tasty.
Think you could challenge me, Junpei?
Challenge you?
That's right. One round each at this game.
If I win, I get this takoyaki.
If you lose?
I give you anything from my collection of plastic models and video games.
Really? Plastic models?
You up for it, Junpei?
Sure!
Come on, Junpei!
You can do it!
The kids are lively today.
Oh, Ryo-san.
Yes!
Your score is 980 out of 1000 points.
Well done, kid.
Okay, it's my turn.
Start!
My special technique, Crimson Bombardment!
We got lucky!
Hi-yah! Backward version!
No way!
He got the maximum!
Wow!
Impressed?
-I lost. -You shouldn't have done it.
Okay, give me your takoyaki as we promised.
Junpei!
What a jerk!
Are you all right?
Arrest the driver, Ryo-san!
Leave it to me!
Stop right there!
Hold it!
Yikes!
Let me use your bike!
Turn on the ultra-power-turbo!
Ryo-san!
He's chasing us on a bike!
He'll never catch up.
I'm not getting arrested for just grazing some kid.
How's that possible?
I won't let you get away!
Damn it! I'll get ahead of him.
Missile jump!
"KAME NO YU BATHHOUSE"
Shoot! Time for a shortcut!
Oh, no! Wrong way!
What are you doing, Ryo-san?
Sorry, I'm on duty!
See you later!
Look what you did, Ryo-san!
I'm chasing a criminal.
Stop the car!
Gotcha!
He's still coming. Speed up!
Why won't he give up?
Who do you think I am?
We're driving at 80 kilometers an hour!
Faster!
Watch out, stupid dog!
Looks like he's finally given up.
Oh, my God!
What?
Stop the car, bastard!
This guy is a monster!
He's nowhere in sight.
We made it, Ken.
We sure showed him!
Aha, an exit!
Ryo-san!
He's arrested the criminal.
Nice work!
You bastard!
I'm sorry. I'll never do it again!
You owe me some takoyaki!
What?
I'm talking about takoyaki. You ruined mine!
You did great, Ryo-chan.
You caught a criminal for the first time in eight years. Well done!
You know what they say, "Wise talons hide their hawks."
Actually, it's "Wise hawks hide their talons."
But it doesn't suit you.
Ryo-san!
Hey, Junpei.
Is your leg all right?
It's just a scratch.
Next time, I'll win against you for sure!
All right. Make sure you practice hard, Junpei.
Oh right, I still haven't eaten anything.
I heard that driver was a notorious traffic violator.
You might even receive a special monetary award for arresting him.
Some money? Awesome!
I'll be able to survive this month!
Is Ryotsu here?
Here it comes.
Yes, sir! Kameari's finest police officer and scourge of hit-and-run criminals,
Kankichi Ryotsu at your service.
Do you have my reward money?
You idiot!
Look outside.
I heard you caused trouble for the local residents again.
You must pay for their damages from your next month's salary!
You can't be serious!
Please spare me, Chief!
