Description:
Based on a manga by Kosuke Fujishima (Oh My Goddess!), You're Under Arrest began as an OVA in 1994 that was expanded into a long-running broadcast series and a feature; twenty 6-minute "specials" aired on the Wonderful show in 1999. Slightly klutzy Miyuki and tough-talking Natsumi are mismatched roommates and partners at the Bokuto Police Station. They specialize in cases involving peeping toms, panty Thieves, and speeders. The criminals are invariably male and always get beaten up or zapped with some electrical device. Several of the mini-episodes feature weak storytelling: when Miyuki and Natsumi persuade their transvestite colleague Futaba to pose as the naked ghost who haunts a traffic tunnel, the real ghost inexplicably shows up. A fairly silly fan service comedy, You're Under Arrest plays like a milder version of Burn-Up Excess. (Rated 15 and older: violence, nudity, risqué humor) --Charles Solomon
