Fun Stuff

Trivia:
When Buaku starts to pass out in episode 4, he starts to mumble the first few lines of The Tale of The Bamboo Cutter; a story about an orphaned supernatural being who is found by and raised as a human. Buaku's story can be considered a much-less idealistic and violent version of this story. more
Quotes:
Leona Ozeki: But if there's a crime going on, we gotta go and help.
Brenten: Now pin your ears back and listen to me. We get a crime of some kind every 36 seconds within the precincts of the city we patrol. My main job as tank police commander is to make sure it doesn't rise to 1 in every 35 seconds. Get it?

Why God why?, 6 July 2006
Author: dispexp from British Virgin Islands

Why did this amazing totally mindblowing series only have to last for 2 acts spread over just over 2 hours? Just when it gets better and better and more emotional, they leave the story hanging and we have go refer to the bloody comic. That itself would have just about covered 1-2 more episodes. Is that too much to ask? Its hard to believe that the Japanese were making this in the late 80s while the other parts of the world were making childish nonsense? I think even though Ghost in the Shell is much more popular, the Tank Police are closer to Shirow's heart. The follow on series, Crusher Police or New Dominion Tank police, is no way in the same league.
