It’s the latter half of the Edo period when cruel thieves feared Heizo Hasegawa, known as “Heizo the Oni". He is the head of Arson Theft Control.He never tolerates injustice and punishes criminals who violate the three articles of a thief.Surrounded by quirky characters, Heizo rids the injustice that infests the city of Edo.

Onihei Hankacho is a historical anime series that is not over the top in any way and works quite well thanks to the charisma of the main protagonist and the quite interesting cases. I could criticize and detail some of its shortcomings, such as the animation of the sword fights that looks quite crappy. I could even mention that some scenes just do not work as they should, in my opinion (for example, it deals with rape and does not provoke any strong feelings - I did not feel any outrage or sympathy.). However, it still does not change the fact that I liked it and found it a very respectable and interesting affair. 7.5/10.
