Description:

The misfits of the Special Vehicles Division #2 of the Tokyo police force continue to deal with crises--on and off duty--and renegade giant industrial robots ("Labors") are often the least of their problems. Isao, the squad's resident big mouth, finds himself with a lovely girl in an omiai, a preliminary meeting for an arranged marriage. Naturally, the entire crew butts in. The adolescent prince of an oil-rich Middle Eastern realm visits Japan--and finds a kindred spirit in mecha-loving Noa. When the male members of the squad are injured in a judo match, Captain Goto has to make peace between irreverent Noa and no-nonsense Kanuka. He stages a drinking contest that produces new bonds (and hangovers), as the 47-episode broadcast series based on Masami Yuuki's manga serial "Mobile Police Patlabor" careens along its merry way. (Unrated; suitable for ages 8 and older; minor violence, alcohol use) --Charles Solomon
