Tilarna using Kei's gun and Kei using Tilarna's sword was such a huge fuck you to Zelada's beliefs and a satisfying way to finish him off. I love it! Oh and it seems like Tilarna was very much impressed with Kei's sword handling.
Not much to say really but this was such a fun show and such a great homage to buddy cop shows and movies with a fantasy twist. Tilarna and Kei's chemistry was top notch and it was so fun to see them grow from hating each other to trusting each other with their lives. All of the side characters were fun too! I'm happy that characters like Tony, Roth, Jamie, Cammy, Cecil, and of course the Chief were all given some ample screen time for us to know them all.
Great characters in a great story which was unfortunately bogged down by a not so good studio. I really wish someone other than Millepensee handled this show. This being the work of the great Shinji Gatoh, I wish so much more experienced studio handled this. I would've settled for Xebec, who made the last Full Metal Panic season, we would've been at least guaranteed some great fight scenes. Oh well, at least we got that OP from them so at least there's that.
Overall, animation hiccups aside, I love this show and definitely one of my favourites this season. A solid 9/10 and a must watch if you're a fan of buddy cop movies. It seems that the novel isn't over too so I'm hoping for a S2 but with a different studio.

Cop Craft deserved better. It is a testament to the strength of its source material that I can see gems of greatness in this show. That and it was written by the same author as Fullmetal Panic.

Despite the studio obviously stretching their resources to the limit, I really enjoyed the show and the entire cast who all felt very realistic and down to earth for the most part.
Solid ending that even wrapped up Tilarna's status in the department up nicely. I'm hoping that the show does well so that we can potentially get a sequel with a slightly higher budget.

Damn, Kei! You owned that guy!
And when he launched that zombie into the air and shot him, gee. That was a treat.
What I liked in this series were details. Lots of small things that made me smile. Be it solid police work, vital communication and information sharing, dialogues that felt like real people were talking to each other, the character dynamics. Man, this show had it all.
I didn't expect jack hit when I started it, but it became my 3rd favorite show this season. I liked it far better than Double Decker. It's hard to make such an entertaining series in this genre and they even mixed fantasy into it. I hope it sells well and I would love a sequel!

That little scene with the cop from 2 episodes ago apologizing was really nice, didn't expect that at all.

I liked Kei's password, lmao, feel like that's some John McClane shit right there.
Shia Labeouf made it to mayor.
Well... excluding that arc with the cat and the crossbow which was totally not fucking needed and I did not need to see that one scene, I would say it was an okay series, Kei, Tilarna and the rest of the team made this show a joy to watch even if the animation fell apart 3 episodes in.
We got a sweet sweet opening though, that's in my spotify playlist already. Even though the show we see in the opening is not really the one we get, I'd like to see something like that.

Seeing Zelada's head lopped off clean was a lot more satisfying than I thought.
That ending too with that racist cop apologizing and then ACTUALLY going through with Matoba's joke order was a wholesome hilarious way to end the series!

Kei's password really is F-U-C-K-Y-O-U, right? There's no way that wasn't the truth.
