City Hunter: Shinjuku Private Eyes, or City Hunter the Movie: Shinjuku Private Eyes (劇場版シティー�ンター 〈新宿プライベート・アイズ), is a 2019 anime feature film produced by Aniplex and animated by Sunrise. Based off Tsukasa Hojo's City Hunter, it is the first animated work in said franchise in twenty years since Death of Vicious Criminal Ryo Saeba back in 1999, with the series' director Kenji Kodama returning. It was released theatrically in Japan and on digital and physical home video in other countries.The legendary couple of sweepers (private eyes/hitmen/bodyguards) of Tokyo's Shinjuku district, Ryo Saeba and Kaori Makimura, are hired to protect Ai Shindo, the daughter of an engineer who died in a car accident. Ai turns out to be the key to unlocking a dangerous attack drones-controlling satellite system her father conceived, and a shady big tech CEO (and former school sweetheart of Kaori) and a terrorist/arms dealer are after it.A sequel, City Hunter the Movie: Angel Dust, premiered September 8, 2023 in Japan, with a theatrical run for the United States, United Kingdom, and Ireland set for sometime in 2024.

Comic-Book Time: The film is recognizably set in the 2010s (all those smartphones with apps) despite none of the characters looking any older than they did in manga and animes set in The '80s and The '90s (and it's also true for the Cat's Eye characters).

Dragon Ascendant: Mikuni is an interesting example. He thought he was the Big Bad, but when he botches his new weapon demonstration because he focuses more on his emotions than business, his mentor Vince Ingrad establishes himself as the Big Bad... All the henchmen obey him, he is about to put a bullet in Kaori's face to sever Mikuni's emotional ties and teach him a lesson, and Mikuni asserts himself as this by killing his mentor.

comment
Psychopathic Manchild: Shinji Mikuni has vibes of this. He still has a lot of unresolved issues from childhood, feeding into his hatred of Shinjuku and his desire for power. Even before undergoing Motive Decay, he still marks his town for destruction for his weapon demonstration and to prove his thesis, but once Laura's partner Ryo comes into play, the mask cracks progressively. Vince ends up nearly calling him the trope before attempting to take over.

War for Fun and Profit
 City Hunter: Shinjuku Private Eyes / int_5c99b642
comment
War for Fun and Profit: Vince Ingrad, Shinji Mikuni and the whole bunch of arms dealers. They are literally drooling at the prospect from Mikuni's thesis: that racial conflict, civil war or territory disputes are not needed to spark conflict and sell arms, you just need to impress strong enough permanent fear in the population, and they will buy weapons in droves to protect themselves. As Vince Ingrad puts it, "This is a good opportunity for this country to learn that safety comes at a price."

Superman Stays Out of Gotham: The Kisugi sisters help Kaori to get into the Big Bad's building through the roof to get revenge for the destruction of the Cat's Eye café, but probably because this isn't marketed as a Crisis Crossover with Cat's Eye and the story would end way faster with their sheer number and She-Fu skills, once Kaori is in the building they just stay outside and watch.

"The Reason You Suck" Speech
 City Hunter: Shinjuku Private Eyes / int_7d89315b
comment
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Mikuni ends on the receiving end of two of these. First from Vince Ingrad, his mentor, when the Steel Reaper is destroyed: Mikuni simply had to cause indiscriminate slaughter in Shinjuku to cause long-lasting fear of warfare and feed his business model, but instead chose to focus on killing Ryo out of purely personal and emotional reasons, ignoring both Vince's advice, and several hints that he was severely Underestimating Badassery. Vince lays this out in simple terms: he can not trust any longer a man who fumbles because he focuses on his emotions at the most critical moment. Then from Kaori when he is about to kill her, as he tries to impress on her that Might Makes Right. Kaori simply points his misunderstanding in simple terms: to her, Right Makes Might.

Oh, Crap!: Umibozu and Miki almost shit in their pants when the Kisugi sisters come back at the Cat's Eye café, since it's now in ruins because of an attack by Mikuni's men, and Umibozu has the utmost reverence for the sisters (they are his bosses, after all). Thankfully, the sisters understand well that it's no fault of either Umibozu or Miki. Umibozu has a few such moments when the ground drones keep coming in droves or when one that got overturned on its back manages to get back on its feet.

Freudian Excuse
 City Hunter: Shinjuku Private Eyes / int_c868a42a
comment
Freudian Excuse: Mikuni, a stereotypical straight-A glasses-wearing kid, used to be bullied and was once saved by Kaori, which impressed him deeply. From there, he has no shortage of unresolved resentment towards Shinjuku, and he would grow up to fervently believe in Might Makes Right. This culminates in him getting completely fixated on killing Ryo, both as Kaori's partner and as the protector of Shinjuku, even though he should be thinking of the bigger picture, causing widespread panic through warfare. His mentor actually calls him out on this several times.

comment
Man Versus Machine: In the climax, there's Ryo vs the flying drones and the Steel Reaper, and Umibozu (and Miki) against the ground drones. The humans win, much to Mikuni's frustration (he had too much faith in the drones), especially Ryo and his unmatched agility, Improbable Aiming Skills and quick thinking.

Shower of Awkward
 City Hunter: Shinjuku Private Eyes / int_d6c074b
comment
Shower of Awkward: After one hard day of kicking the ass of the men sent after Ai, Ryo wants to take a shower and undresses completely, and he doesn't notice Ai is already in the shower until the last second... Even though this time it's absolutely accidental coming from Ryo, it ends the same painful way as usual for him, courtesy of a furious Kaori.

Achilles' Heel
 City Hunter: Shinjuku Private Eyes / int_d7639dba
comment
Achilles' Heel: The flying drones are armored enough to withstand bullets, but Ryo finds out they can be taken down by shooting in their rotors. The drones then adapt for a while by bending enough so that Ryo's bullets hit their armored parts instead of the rotors.

comment
Monumental Damage: Prevented at the last second. A loose RPG rocket fired by the men chasing Ai at the beginning heads towards the Godzilla head of Shinjuku district, and Ryo prevents it destruction by shooting the rocket with his Colt Python.

Big Damn Heroes: Ryo rescues Ai towards the beginning when two thugs are about to attack her with a Static Stun Gun, effortlessly mopping the floor with them using just his legs (he keeps his hands in his pockets throughout) and introducing himself to her. Miki showing up with a Grenade Launcher to help Umibozu as he's being overwhelmed by the land drones.
