arsonistheway If you like ultra violent '90s anime like I do this should be a good watch for you. I was actually one of those people who pre ordered this when discotek originally released the DVD. In terms of characters they are pretty bland. You have the by-the-books cop, the bad@$$ anti-hero cop, the tough chick, and a bunch of people you won't even remember. The best thing I can do now is break it down episode by episode. The first episode has some fun gore, a nice ghetto atmosphere, and parodies several action movies including the bond franchise, but the villain is lame. Episode 2 is probably the best because it has the same great atmosphere, gore that is even more awesome than the first episode, and a little bit of humor, but there is this stupid subplot about a dirty cop which is forgettable. The third episode is so bad it's hilarious. The animation is laughable and the most annoying and stupid character in the series is introduced, but like I said it is like an Ed Wood film. The fourth episode makes the horrible decision to play everything straight. There is some humor, but the gore and action are worse than ever. The main villain and her relationship with one of the cops could have been interesting if it was actually done well, but it wasn't. I enjoyed this series because the whole thing kept my attention and had some genuinely clever and fun moments, but I just can't bring myself to give it an average rating because of all of its flaws.

gangstahippie Mad Bull 34 may not be the best anime in terms of storyline, but it is sure as hell entertaining.It is an OVA consisting of 4 1 hour long episodes.It was released by Manga Entertainment on VHS back in the 90's.The episodes are available on youtube(as of now), however it desperately needs a DVD release.The profanity,sex,over the top violence and hilarious one liners make this an extremely entertaining anime.The premise of the show is of two cops.One is a young rookie who wants to play by the rules, and the other is a fat, sex addicted, trigger happy police veteran.They both solve crimes such as rape and murder while trying to deal with each other.Mad Bull 34 is a great anime about the NYPD and it needs to be re-released uncut along with Violence Jack and other entertaining but not exactly thought-provoking animes.

Mdgeist316 Mad Bull 34 is a 4 part anime series that features the story of an 18 year-old police academy grad named Daizaburo Eddie Ban. He joins the NYPD's 34th precinct and meets his new partner John Estes, AKA: Mad Bull. Mad Bull's over-the-top way of dispensing criminals, and dealing with prostitutes has yet to be seen. This guy gives new meaning to police brutality. Shoot first, ask questions later. This concerns Daizaburo, but learns the meanings behind Mad Bull's Actions. Visually, it's pretty average. I've never seen the Japanese sub version, but the English dub isn't that bad at all. In fact, it's pretty funny. Overall, it's a good action-comedy series that shouldn't be taken seriously. Watch it at midnight on the weekend and you won't be sorry. Highly recommended but contains sex(not really graphic), graphic violence, and language that would make a sailor's ears bleed.

Tgraf Mad Bull is a wonderful example of the Japanese's warped view of American culture. It takes place in an alternate universe New York City where the palpable scent of death, decay, and violence permeates the air. A fresh, half Japanese recruit is teamed with a seasoned veteran nick-named Mad Bull for his tendency to shoot people's heads off a segment at a time. The recruit is serious and by the book, and Mad Bull would rather spend his time sleeping with prostitutes.Naturally, in the beginning there is some tension between the two partners, stemming almost entirely from the recruit's contempt of Mad Bull's habit of sleeping with prostitutes and then stealing their money. He even has a cadre of whores that he pimps to his partner so he can lose his virginity. And this is the protagonist! He's the guy we're supposed to relate to! Amazing!Eventually the mismatched duo need to work together in order to fight the character I have christened the "Super Negro"--a bad ass pimp (of course) who wants to do some bad stuff. I wish I could remember what that stuff is, but it's really secondary to Mad Bull's random outbursts of violent fury.You should definitely view this if you are a fan of misogyny, violence, racial stereotypes, and heroes with absolutely no moral compunction. I loved it.
