Plots(1)
Fifteen years ago, a hyperspace gate appeared in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, connecting Earth to a strange world filled with fairies and monsters. The city of San-Teresa became a home for over two million of these otherworldly visitors. Unfortunately, the population boom also brought its fair share of problems drugs, prostitution, and trafficking. To combat the rampant crime lurking in the city's shadows, a new department was established in the San-Teresa Metropolitan Police. Former JSDF soldier Kei Matoba is one of the best cops that the department has to offer, despite his inclination to occasionally bend the rules. After a fairy trafficking case goes wrong, Kei loses Rick Fury, his friend and partner of four years, setting him on a quest for vengeance. To help him with the case, the department pairs him with Tilarna Exedilika, a noble of the Farbani Kingdom. As one of the Knights of Mirvor, her duty is to rescue the noble fairy that Kei encountered during his last case. Despite his distaste for non-humans, he accepts the arrangement at the request of his superiors. Now, the unlikely duo must come together and overcome their differences in order to return the missing fairy to her country and avenge the death of Kei's partner. (Manga Home Entertainment)

It is too bad this anime series was not able to get a more experienced studio with a slightly bigger budget to handle it. Because let us be honest, you just do not see action scenes this bad - completely chaotic and full of maddening edits that look like someone made it during an epileptic seizure. In other words, when you lack the resources and talent to animate fluid movement, you get static shots and edits that look like they came out of a rapid fire AK-47 assault rifle, and it all looks rather monstrous. Oh, aside from the hacked up action scenes, there is also the CGI which is used on the cars, for example, and is also not something Jeoffrey wants to look at. While the rest of the show is not all a complete waste - this is an average crime drama albeit with very likable characters (led by a main double act who have good chemistry) and a suitable soundtrack. Normally, I should have enjoyed it, because these "buddy cop" thrillers where the main protagonists are sneaking around trying to solve something at least a little interesting have always been quite popular with me since I used to watch Moonlighting. However, the graphic art style and the fact that I did not find some parts (like TylCat) were not that interesting only gives me the feeling to award it 6/10, which is a shame considering how much I liked the main duo (and most of the other characters). I would have liked the second season if someone other than the gentlemen from Millepensee animation studio had been in charge of it…
