About Police in a Pod

If you are hunting for a new comedy series, Police in a Pod (ハコヅメ～交番女子の逆襲～) deserves a look (2022). The setup goes like this. The premise: Officer Mai Kawai has had enough! She’s sick of being a police officer—but just when she’s about to hand in her resignation, the arrival of a brilliant (and beautiful) ace detective named Seiko Fuji changes her mind.

Beyond that: Will Fuji reignite Mai’s passion for policing? Will Mai uncover the mystery of why Fuji was transferred to this everyday police box?

In a comedy series like this, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Voice work is led by Shion Wakayama as Mai Kawai and Yui Ishikawa as Seiko Fuji. This one is best suited to viewers who want something light between heavier series. The run is 13 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
