Originally broadcast in Japan from 1996 to 2004, Kochikame spanned over 300 episodes total, and has never before been released in North America in English language… until now! Adapted from Osamu Akimoto's long-running and beloved manga series, Kochikame tracks the zany, day-to-day misadventures of Kankichi Ryotsu, a hapless but good-hearted cop at an ordinary Tokyo neighborhood police station in Katsushika Ward. Famous for its combination of wacky, slapstick, comedy, social commentary, and humanist storytelling, the franchise became an immediate cultural phenomenon in Japan. The manga's main serialization ended in September 2016 after a remarkable 40-year serialization, earning it recognition as one of the longest-running manga series in history. As of June 2016, it had 150 million copies in circulation. The very last official chapter ended in 201, which was published in Japan in October 2021, but Akimoto has published a dozen or so special/chapter-length epilogues since then. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 10-Month-old is battling for his life and only you can save him!
