City Hunter (Manga)	comment	Ryo Saeba is a "sweeper" (combination of hitman and private eye) who uses his Improbable Aiming Skills and all-round badassery to deal with crime in Tokyo. He also happens to be a loony pervert.The City Hunter manga by Tsukasa Hojo (Cat's Eye) ran in Weekly Shounen Jump from 1985 to 1992. It spawned four anime series, several OVAs (the most recent being City Hunter: Shinjuku Private Eyes) and two live-action movies (one from Hong Kong starring Jackie Chan and a French one much later). It is a schizophrenic action manga with heavy elements of Sex Comedy.Ryo Saeba is an apparent orphan who was brought up in a war-torn village in Central America. At a young age, he was used as a test subject for a unique LSD derivative which resulted in him developing Super-Reflexes. He trained these reflexes as a guerilla in that country's civil war before escaping to the United States and thence to Japan. In Japan, he teamed up with former police detective Hideyuki Makimura to form the "City Hunter" sweeper agency; ostensibly, he's a Private Detective, but will go further for certain clients - he's also a Hitman with a Heart.The "comedy" comes into play whenever Ryo sees a beautiful woman. Somehow, that LSD derivative had as much of a positive effect on his sexuality as it did his reflexes. He has a sex drive of truly epic proportions, and a physique guaranteed to make just about any woman happy to be its focus... which is just about the only Restraining Bolt this Lovable Sex Maniac has - he knows that he's everything he claims to be, and is thus always patient enough to wait until the girl's in the mood to get wild. He's not above what most would consider outright sexual harassment, however... as long as the girl seems amused by it.In other words, What If? Ataru Moroboshi was James Bond - right down to being the hero of his own series!Early in the manga, Hideyuki dies on a case, asking Ryo to look after his much younger adoptive sister, Kaori. Kaori, a tomboyish Tsundere (who is of course Beautiful All Along) quickly takes her brother's place as Ryo's partner and business manager. She is decidedly unimpressed by Ryo's lecherous ways and often interrupts his seduction attempts. Despite this, the two quickly form a strong emotional bond - though Kaori is never sure whether Ryo's excuse for not acting on their easily noticed Unresolved Sexual Tension is really because It's Not You, It's My Enemies, or if her lecherous partner is just too damned horny to ever settle down.Important recurring characters include "Umibozu", a rival sweeper who has ties to Ryo going back to Central America, and Saeko Nogami, the daughter of the police chief and a police detective in her own right. Saeko often hires the City Hunter team to look into affairs the police can't publicly investigate or cannot prove that an actual crime has occurred.The standard procedure for hiring City Hunter is to leave a message for "XYZ" at the Shinjuku train station, after which Kaori makes a preliminary investigation before introducing the prospective client to Ryo. Naturally, many of their cases bypass this procedure. (Especially if the client is a beautiful woman.)The manga Angel Heart takes place in an Alternate Universe in which Kaori has died and her heart was transplanted into the new story's heroine, who then encounters an older Ryo Saeba.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_12b1f5f3	comment	No Such Thing as Bad Publicity: In-Universe during an arc that involves Ryo being hired to bodyguard an Idol Singer who receives a threatening letter shortly prior to the start of the arc. She's nearly overwhelmed by the fans who manage to break through the security to the stage and nearly reach the concert stage at one point, only for Ryo to whisk her away, Tarzan-style, before any of the fans can touch her, with said Idol Singer kissing Ryo on the cheek in gratitude. After the image of the singer kissing Ryo is published in tabloid magazines, Ryo and Kaori meet the singer's manager and expect to be fired, only to be met with elation, as the scandal, if anything, further drives up the popularity of the singer in question, not to mention that the next letter from the Loony Fan indicates that he has changed his target from the singer to Ryo instead.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_14beeefd	type	Darker and Edgier
City Hunter (Manga) / int_14beeefd	comment	Darker and Edgier: The first two volumes of the manga (and thus the first 7-9 episodes of the anime, which adapted material from these volumes) are considerably darker than the rest of the series (up until the final manga volume, when the darker tone returns), with fewer mokkori antics (Ryo is general is far more subdued in his perversions than later in the series, often merely touching a woman's legs as opposed to the full-throttle 'mokkori pounce' he later becomes known for), a darker, quieter atmosphere (with few gags, more moments devoid of any dialogue, several Tear Jerker moments and Ryo actually having to kill the antagonists at the end of each story, instead of disarming them), a grittier, more realistic tone (probably due to the absence of Kaori's 100-ton hammer), Ryo facing legitimate criminals as is more realistic for a 'sweeper' (silencers murdering innocents, Arabian arms dealers, a syndicate freezing young womens' bodies for use as store-window mannequins and most famously the Central American drug organization Union Teope (Red Pegasus in the anime)) instead of henchmen or lackeys (often those of a corrupt business tycoon or some other form of non-criminal) as is common later in the series and a more subdued art style, making greater use of realistic angles, designs and tone and less of cartoonish expressions and character designs (Ryo donning his later perverted grin is rare in earlier manga stories and only appears in one of the first five episodes of the anime). Naturally, these differences to the series' later stories have created instances of Broken Base.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_15b2cab3	type	Tempting Fate
City Hunter (Manga) / int_15b2cab3	comment	Tempting Fate: Whenever Ryo imagines the female client he's hired to bodyguard as a burly, homely woman due to not having managed to know what the client looks like in advance, he ends up with a pleasant surprise upon seeing that the client in question is actually a beautiful young lady. After Ryo manages to whisk an Idol Singer he's hired to bodyguard, Tarzan-style, away from the audience storming the stage while she's performing in a concert, said Idol Singer gives him a kiss on the cheek as a show of gratitude. Given her well-known status, the image of the kiss spreads through media outlets like wildfire the next day. Ryo goes to the singer's agency office expecting to be fired for the scandal... only to be greeted with jubilant elation, due to the new relevation that the Loony Fan, whom Ryo was hired to bodyguard the Idol Singer from from the beginning, has just switched his target from the singer he was planning to harm initially to Ryo following the release of the kiss. Kaori expresses anxious excitement at the thought of being chosen to act in a movie production and is excited when a studio manager asks her to be the main star of a movie. She has second thoughts once said studio manager tells her that the plot of the movie is about a woman pro-wrestler who's also a transvestite. Once Kaori expressed the wish to see, just for once, the message board of Shinjuku station filled with XYZ requests. When she looked at the board she saw a single XYZ filling the whole board. The new client was the gigantic Umibozu, who had left a request of the right size. On the opening day of Cat's Eye Cafe, Ryo laughs at Umibozu at the sight of him in a barista uniform, prompting an annoyed Umibozu to claim: "Only today!" I will never do this again!" Umibozu would stay employed this way for the rest of the series's runnote , though at least Ryo never laughs at him in a barista uniform again, having grown accustomed to it soon after the opening day. When Kaori has trouble finding gigs (again) and accosts Ryo for caring more about hooking up with beautiful girls than seeking new jobs, Ryo says "when the time comes, work will come to me", and Kaori, out of sheer boredom, claims that she wishes that "something would finally happen". Cue an airplane coming towards their apartment and crashing into it.note That being said, it doesn't become a real job for Ryo and Kaori right away, at least until the police report reveals that the airplane was sabotaged on purpose and the pilot requests Ryo's protection for real. Late in an arc in which Ryo is hired to bodyguard an animal rights activist by said activist's father, whose relationship with his daughter is strained, Ryo "invites" himself to a ride on the backseat of the motorcycle as she starts riding with the intention of getting her to talk to her father. The activist tells Ryo to get off, but Ryo defies her and claims she'll never throw him off no matter how fast she rides her motorcycle... only to fall off her motorcycle after he gets caught on a tree branch by the neck. The arc that features Michihiko and Haruka Jinguchi starts with Haruka getting lost by herself in a busy street block, worrying aloud that she might get hit on by strangers, and wondering what to do next. Cue Ryo, after being rejected by a woman he hits on (yet again), hitting on her the moment he sees her. During Ryo's showdown against a hypnotist, who managed to implant a hypnotic suggestion into Ryo's client in that particular arc (a stunt actress) with the intent of getting her killed in her upcoming stunt performance to Make It Look Like an Accident, the hypnotist imposes a hallucinogenic illusion into Ryo while Ryo looks at him to prevent Ryo from knowing the real deal from the mirages. Just as the hypnotist is about to throw a knife at Ryo to kill him, Ryo warns him that he'll be able to locate the knife the moment it's thrown and then fight back right away. The hypnotist, believing Ryo is merely bluffing, throws his knife anyway... and finds out to his cost that Ryo's words were no mere bluff, as Ryo, upon hearing the sound of the knife approaching him, locates the knife and the hypnotist at once before firing a shot, which not only destroys the knife in its track but injures the hypnotist enough to break his hypnotic hallucination as well, allowing Ryo to have him tied up while Ryo himself goes to save his hypnotized client. At one point during Miyuki and Kaori's attempt to escape from Miyuki's pursuers, Kaori tells Miyuki that she's in charge after Kaori expends the bullets in her gun fighting off the first pursuers, with Miyuki responding with "I can dodge the incoming bullets with ease!" in turn. Barely seconds afterwards, their next pursuers fire shots at them, shattering a side-view mirror and deflating a tire in their wake. After agreeing to be the bodyguard of Misako Kusaka, an ER surgeon who is a friend of Reika's, Ryo manages to evade Kaori's surveillance and goes to Misako's house to insure that they'll have no interference as he seduces her. They go in... And Ryo is promptly jumped and cockblocked by the MANY dogs, cats, and a few bunnies she took from the street. When Kaori enters Misako's residence and sees Ryo too preoccupied with caring for Misako's pets to seduce her, Kaori finds the way Ryo's plan backfired Actually Pretty Funny and bursts into hearty laughter, much to Ryo's annoyance. The chronologically final example of this trope occurs when Kreutz, who has Kaori abducted by his own troops in order to draw Ryo out for direct confrontation, asks one of his personal soldiers at one point for status update regarding Ryo's battle against his own private army. He expects Ryo to have died by this point, but his soldier responds that, not only is Ryo still alive, but three-fourths of his own private soldiers are wiped out as well.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_22cf536c	comment	Chekhov's Gun: When Makimura was killed by a victim of the Angel Dust Ryo reacted badly to the mention of the drug, and was astonishingly well-informed on its effects and its makers of Union Teope in spite of them being newcomers in Japan (and him having never heard the name before Hideyuki mentioned it). Near the end of the story it's discovered that Ryo was the original test subject of Angel Dust, and the founder and leader of Union Teope was his adopted father. Ryo's backstory is hinted at in many places by Ryo, other characters who knows it and small happenings before Rosemary Moon decides to reveal it. Even then, she left out some parts that would be revealed only later. Not just Ryo's backstory, but also other parts of the story, sometimes mixed with Continuity Nods. For example, in his first appearance Silver Fox tried to kill Ryo's target with a rifle chambered for .308 Winchester, and at the start of his second appearance the first hint of him being the villain is the sight of a rifle usually chambered for that round.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_237404cc	comment	Ironic Echo: When Kaori offers to disguise herself as one of the auditioners to help monitor the audition stage, Ryo dismisses her by asking what happens should her disguise as a woman failnote (Kaori responds by striking him with a hammer with the words "I'm a woman!" written on it). On the day of the audition, Ryo takes a fancy with a woman he doesn't recognize (right down to his Gag Penis literally acting up), only for said woman to reveal herself to be Kaori with a wig. Cue Ryo nervously covering up his crotch. Shortly after the scenario above, Kaori is getting ready for her audition and feels nervous, and the following exchange ensues: After Ryo fends off two thugs who try to take a woman by force, he says to her "it looks like someone's out to get you" and suggests for them to discuss things elsewhere. She then says "it looks like someone's out to get you" to him as she sees Kaori behind Ryo, with a hammer headed his way. On Omibozu's first day tending to Cat's Eye Cafe alongside Miki, Ryo pokes fun at him by claiming Omibozu set it all up, raising Miki while she was a child until she was old enough to fall in love with him. Shortly thereafter, Sara enters with her nanny in the hope of getting Ryo to protect them. When Ryo express no interest in helping them, Omibozu suggests for Ryo to take the job, arguing that Sara will grow into a beautiful woman in a few years and Ryo will be set for life with Sara's potential inheritancenote as she was born in a wealthy family. Ryo takes the job, even if not initially, but he's more fixated on the nanny. When Kaori expresses enthusiasm about getting Ryo into an airplane flight, her reasoning is: "If people found out that the famous City Hunter has this kind of weakness, you'll become a laughingstock in front of the whole world." Shortly thereafter, Kaori returns to the apartment she and Ryo share for a change of clothes, encounters a knife-brandishing burglar, and trips and falls to the floor while evading said burglar due to the debris within the room, only for Ryo to save her before any harm can be done to her:

City Hunter (Manga) / int_25afd4a3	comment	Good Guns, Bad Guns: Subverted: the characters tend to use guns that work, with the interesting result of the villain Silver Fox using exclusively two "good" guns (the Remington Model 700 rifle and the Browning Hi-Power) specifically because they're among the best weapons on the market for their job (the Model 700 being a very accurate rifle and the basis for two military sniper rifles, and the Hi-Power being one of the best pistols ever). Played with in Saeko's debut arc: the villains of that arc used NATO weapons, but had been fooled into serving the villain and would have killed him themselves had they known of it. Played with again in the final arc: the villains used Warsaw Pact weapons, but, being rogue units of the army of a country, those who defeated them in their home country are implied to use the same weapons.

Since it is dangerous to become acquainted with him due to his profession, whenever a client is getting too attached to him, Ryo becomes (more) insensitive, rude or lecherous in order to drive her away: In one story a client was considering giving up her dreams for Ryo... so Ryo pretended that he only wanted to have sex with her because he thinks he can not make an honest woman happy. Ryo had spent an arc protecting an old friend of his: a weapon-smith that wanted to quit her job for her daughter's sake. However she was considering to go back on her decision in order to remain with Ryo. So he made her believing that, should she stay in his apartment, he and his friends would force her to constantly fix their weapons. Disgusted, she decided leaving (although she eventually understood and accepted what Ryo was trying to do).

Kaibara, boss of Union Teope and Ryo's stepfather, is so feared that Ryo and Umibozu are terrified of him, and Mick Angel accepted the job of killing Ryo only out of fear of him.

Finally, according to Ryo, the cop duo of Saeko and Hideyuki (former police officer) was known as 'The Beauty and the Beast of Tokyo Police' due to their close partnership, great ability and looks. Kasumi Asou alias Theif nÂ°305 was nicknamed 'Flying Little Butt' by Ryo due to what he first saw of her. When she reappeared, Ryo remembered the nickname first.

More noticeably, often when the foreign girl of the week is flying back to her home country (or a local girl is leaving for whatever reason) the same shot of a SUNRISE AIR LINS jet taking off is used. A more noticeable example occurred whenever he had to fight large groups. While the target mooks would be drawn to match the mooks of the episode, Ryo was always depicted using the same five or six attacks (in still frames, no less!), often in the same sequence: among them, a rear kick, elbow to the chest, backfist, uppercut.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_48e8fe57	comment	Happily Adopted: Kaori. Her biological father kidnapped her from her mother and turned to theft to live, and when he died in a chase Hideyuki's father, who was the cop chasing him, failed in finding her mother and adopted her. He planned to tell Kaori on her 20th birthday, but he died when Kaori was five, Hideyuki, who should have told her in his place, died on that very day before telling her, and Ryo (who found out by Hideyuki before his death) never gathered the courage to tell her. A flashback episode shows that Kaori found out in high school and doesn't care: as far as she's concerned, Hideyuki and his father are her family, and she never bothered searching for her biological mother and sister.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_4f4372e9	comment	Early-Installment Weirdness: The first few manga stories/TV episodes have a much darker and grittier tone than the rest of the series, with less comedy, more melancholic background music (in the case of the anime), more realistic character designs, fewer mokkori antics (with Ryo often touching a woman's legs instead of pouncing on them), Makimura as Ryo's partner instead of Kaori (thus bringing a lack of the infamous Hyperspace Mallet from later stories), a higher adherence to real-world gunplay technicals, a more 'hard-boiled' atmosphere and Ryo being forced to kill the antagonists at the end of each story instead of disarming them as with later installments of the series. Most of these details disappear after Kaori begins using her hammer.

It also got lampshaded in the second Union Teope arc: after finding out that Ryo had not left her behind to go into battle but was in the toilet, Kaori screamed at him that nobody had ever heard of a hero that goes to poop before the battle, only for Ryo to reply that it's the smart thing to do (and calling her constipated).

Umibozu acts as this toward Maki Himuro, the daughter of his commander in his mercenary days: his reaction to Ryo having a mokkori before her is to shoot at Ryo's penis with a Smith & Wesson Model 29. And, when she stays at Ryo's place for protection, Umibozu shows his knowledge as Trap Master by placing various traps, most of which are lethal should they connect, to try to deter Ryonote — "try to" being the key phrase here.

A few episode of the anime where he flies with no problem were made before this was revealed in the manga, though. An even earlier and more notable case is Umibozu's terrible fear of cats, especially if they're cute kittens. It leads to funny scenes, and to plot-point moments as well. Kaori is afraid of ghosts. The story arc featuring the spirit of a deceased woman who borrows her twin sister's body momentarily to communicate with her and Ryo is particularly nerve-wrecking for her.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_5eecd64c	type	Oh, No... Not Again!
City Hunter (Manga) / int_5eecd64c	comment	Oh, No... Not Again!: Standard reaction from anyone who has to fight Ryo more than once. The most notable example is the boss of the Unryu gang: the first time he encountered Ryo he started begging for forgiveness upon realizing his son has pissed off City Hunter, and sometimes later his face cried a mix of this and Oh, Crap! when Ryo barged in his house and he realized the women he had just kidnapped were Ryo's partner and client. Throughout the arc of Hirotaka Kitao, who's an Identical Stranger to Hideyuki, he finds himself the reluctant guest for Ryo's invitations to all-night drinking, as he's not as capable of withstanding alcohol as Ryo is. When he's about to move at the end of the arc, his expression to Ryo proposing a week-long farewell party for him is nothing short of this trope, knowing that it'd be a week of non-stop alcohol consumption that he can't handle. Ryo's reaction upon finding out that Yuka is a younger sister of Saeko is this, as Yuka is just as manipulative as Saeko and Reika, albeit too underage to exploit Ryo's sex-obsessed weakness since Ryo isn't aroused by minors. At the end of Yuka's arc, after Yuka tells Ryo and Kaori that she has a pair of younger twin sisters and her father is still trying to have male children, the thought of Yuka's younger sisters — at least two, if not more — coming to him for favors while being every bit as manipulative as Yuka and her older sisters are causes this reaction for Ryo again.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_6a47a1e2	type	Knight of Cerebus
City Hunter (Manga) / int_6a47a1e2	comment	Knight of Cerebus: Sonia Field. Her story arc, where Ryo is revealed to having killed his partner and Sonia's father in a duel due to him being blackmailed by a syndicate with his daughter's life, is a major Gut Punch that suddenly brings back the dark atmosphere of the early part of the manga. The following story arcs, while more light hearted, still keeps it, with one even having a veiled mention of Union Teope before the organization showed up again in person. Ryo's old acquaintances from US in general: Rosemary Moon revealed most of Ryo's past to Kaori and the readers and tried to kill him to save her fiancee, Sonia Field has been already described above, and Mick Angel brought Union Teope back in the story, having been forcefully hired by them to kill Ryo and being blown up by a person dosed with Angel Dust when he renounces to complete the job. Saeko is a mild example: whenever she's involved, the story arc is usually less comedic than normal.

Iwai corrects Kaori at once by demonstrating the action of placing it inside the patient's mouth. The problem is that Iwai forgot to disinfect the thermometer before putting it inside Ryo's mouth, so now she and Kaori must disinfect the thermometer... and Ryo's mouth as well.

Of course, the improved animation quality also allows Ryo's mokkori antics and Kaori's subsequent punishment of him to be exaggerated. The first six episodes of the anime itself have superior animation quality to the rest of the show (sans a few episodes at the beginning of the second season, which have even better animation) with a higher attention to realistic tone and movements. Unfortunately averted by the end of the second season, however, where the anime's art style begins to take on a more generic appearance and the movements become more stilted.

Averted in the manga, where their reason to disappear is clearly stated (Ryo was dead-set to destroy them and had utterly mocked and fooled their best hitman before killing him, so they had to find someone capable of doing the job before returning to Japan), they set in motion Sayaka Ryujin's story arc, and return at the end of the manga.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_97e1ca8c	comment	Almost Lethal Weapons: Happened thrice. Every other time it's averted: people actually hit by bullets will have the wounds cripple them for months if not for life. The first time Ryo shot through his own hand to slow down his bullet and avoid collateral damage without suffering permanent damage (it's mentioned that Ryo avoided hitting the bones exactly to prevent the crippling damage that would have happened to anyone without Improbable Aiming Skills). The second time Umibozu had been shot in the back with three .38 bullets, but he only needed to flex his muscles to expel them with little damage (Ryo immediately pointed out that nobody else could have done it). In the final instance Ryo managed to knock out a thug with a bullet from his .357 Magnum (again, it was a special circumstance: Ryo's Improbable Aiming Skills had allowed him to make the bullet pass near the head of the thug, knocking him out with the shock of it).

Faced with Ryo's unwillingness to cooperate, she whispers to Ryo that she would tell Kaori about Ryo peeping on her while she was bathing if he doesn't play along.

He's not above what most would consider outright sexual harassment, however... as long as the girl seems amused by it. Mick Angel too: not only he's Ryo's American counterpart, but he tends to target already engaged women (we've seen him successfully seducing a woman about to marry and try and seduce a newly wed woman and Kaori), where Ryo specifically limits himself to look when he finds out a woman is already in love with someone else.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_bcd27e37	comment	Improbable Aiming Skills: Played straight with Ryo. Inverted with Kaori, who can't shoot straight. This was done on purpose by Ryo to make sure she never kills anyone. Justified for Keibu Fumakuchi, a Corrupt Cop capable of shooting a woman-sized target at about 1 km: he's an Olympic shooting champion, meaning he has both the skills and the training to do just that (it's a difficult shot for him, but he can pull it), to the point he's considered the best sniper in the world. In the same arc, Ryo proved himself superior to Fumakuchi by shooting the barrel of his rifle at the same distance. Fumakuchi told himself that nobody could pull that shot and it had been a fluke, only for Ryo to do it again, following with Fumakuchi's belt and the buttons of his shirt, and concluding with calling the Olympic Games a contest between amateur (and they are, in fact) and bragging being the best professional sniper in the world, superior to any Olympic champion. In one story arc, a one-shot character succeeded in hitting the bullseye multiple times in spite of using Kaori's gun. Note that not even Ryo can hit anywhere near the target with that gun...

Doubles as Fate Worse than Death, as they were as much perverted as Ryo. One hospital in Tokyo has a rather unusual punishment for troublesome patients: isolate them from other patients, forbid visits and entrust them to the incredibly goofy nurse Yoshimi Iwai, whose botched cares have already killed at least eleven people and injured the rest.

The original manga version of the same story has Ryo putting seaweed on his forehead to emulate Kenshiro's eyebrows and doing an impression of "You Are Already Dead". Goku's rather erm, forceful method of differentiating male from female is brought up when Ryo wonders how a prostitute is going to determine her future clients' gender after she tried to hit on Kaori. At one point in the anime, a child Ryo is looking after plays Athena. A particularly epic one has Ryo recreating the "Did he fire six shots or only five?" scene from Dirty Harry, offering to spare the life of the Yakuza boss he was using in place of the punk if he could tell him if he still had a bullet in it, with the boss recognizing the movie he ripped the scene from. In one scene Ryo compares an enemy goon with Commando since "Terminator is too old". In a chapter Kaori picks a Famicom to play with a child.

They wanted to marry each other, but ended up separating because everyone around them opposed it, never to see each other again. note Etsuko's mother told her about her father while she was alive. Her father, meanwhile, goes on to have a family of his own, though he regards Etsuko's mother as The One That Got Away and is unaware that Etsuko's mother was already pregnant by the time of their separation. Etsuko joined the audition precisely because she hoped to see her father, who would direct the very movie for which she auditions. The story of the parents of Kimiko, a seventeen-year-old girl with Unwanted Harem, is this trope in a nutshell.note To elaborate: Kimiko's parents loved each other and wanted to get married, but Kimiko's paternal grandmother, who saw too many women after her son and too many men after her, all with only getting their wealthy estates in mind, could only see Kimiko's mother as just yet another Gold Digger, and so sent her son aboard with an employee of hers, in the hope of getting her son to forget about Kimiko's mother through work. It backfired horribly. The plot is quite similar to Romeo and Juliet, except that Romeo and Juliet both ended up dying of natural causes (the would-be husband, heartbroken over being separated from his One True Love, suffered from Despair Event Horizon-induced Death by Despair while the would-be wife ended up with Death by Childbirth) and that they had a child — Kimiko — in this scenario, though the would-be husband never found out about him having a daughter right up to his dying moment and his mother didn't find out about Kimiko until he was long gone. This is why Kimiko has been raised by her maternal grandfather. Kasumi's grandmother turns out to have been in such a situation.note Long ago, she was in love with a man who was not of the family, but she and the man separated due to her family rules. While she went on to have a family of her own, up to and including Kasumi herself (though she still misses him), the man stayed a bachelor for life. Ryo discovers the backstory via a combination of his detective work and the confiding of the man's side of the story, told to Ryo by the man's adoptive son.

City Hunter (Manga) / int_e9e35e8f	type	Exact Words
City Hunter (Manga) / int_e9e35e8f	comment	Exact Words: This crops up from time to time. Should the client's payment for Ryo's service involving Ryo having his way with her and the client means it, there will be some caveat from said client that Ryo isn't made aware of until he finds out too late to circumvent (assuming that he would be able to circumvent said caveat in the first place if he knew earlier), ensuring that Failure Is the Only Option. When Ryo is tasked with protecting a young woman and a boy, who are on the run from agents of a foreign country that attempt to seize them, the boy catches Ryo attempting to take a peek at the woman while she's bathing, and, in the ensuing discussion, mentions to Ryo about her busty and curvy physique. When Ryo accuses him of peeking at her, the boy denies... and then proves himself technically right as he goes inside the bathroom with a loud announcement, followed by her washing him behind closed door. The sheer extent of what he can get away with causes Ryo to be filled with envy. Near the end of Kazue's arc, Ryo traps the culprit, his son, and their guards in a room before siccing the killer bees that belong to said culprit on them. After they're stung, Ryo makes them promise that they'd neither manufacture nor distribute bioweapons ever again as condition for agreeing to "let them live" by giving them the antidote. What no one else (including Kaori, Doc, and Kazue) knows is that Ryo's promise to "let them live" extends only to their lives, not their capacity for procreation — the antidote Ryo gives them is the initial type that causes permanent impotence as its side effect. Umibozu once requests Ryo to protect Maki Himuro, the daughter of his commander in his mercenary days. After the service is concluded, Umibozu pays Ryo, but not in the form of money — it comes in 200 bottles of bourbon instead, much to the chagrin of both Ryo and Kaori. At the end of an arc in which Ryo bodyguards a princess, said princess spends a day sightseeing Tokyo with Ryo. As the princess is about to leave, Kaori asks Ryo whether he did anything to her. Ryo responds with "I didn't do anything." He's technically right — he and the princess share a kiss at the end of their sightseeing, but the princess was the one making the move. Earlier in the same princess-bodyguarding arc, her lady-in-waiting promises Ryo a harem, on the condition that he not touch her even once, and she makes it her business to remind Ryo of that every time he's close to touching the princess. At the end of the arc, Kaori hands Ryo his reward for living up to his end of the condition... it turns out to be some complimentary tickets to Hotel Harem, much to Ryo's immense chagrin.note It also doubles as a Brick Joke, as said lady-in-waiting keeps reminding Ryo by saying "harem" every time he's about to touch the princess, and Ryo at one point jumps at the sound of "harem", only to turn around and witness some random stranger talking about "Hotel Harem", which is on the same block they're on at the time. After a sabotaged airplane rams into Ryo and Kaori's apartment and Kaori insists on having Ryo sleep with him, loudly and in public without her meaning to, Ryo and Kaori sleep in Ryo's room... but Ryo is Exiled to the Couch while Kaori occupies the bed, as the result of this trope.

In Episode 14 of the original series, Saeko is kidnapped by members of a local gang who's abducting beautiful young women. In her prison cell, Saeko gains the attention of a nearby guard and upon distracting him through the use of her sweet talk, Saeko kicks him in the groin, managing to get the cell keys from him while playfully apologizing about her deceptive kick. At the beginning of the original series' Episode 43, the Girl of the Week, Utako Yumeno, knees a man in the groin from inside a train after he had suddenly bumped into her and accidentally looked down her shirt.

Ryo mocks Umibozu at every chance he gets (the nickname Umibozu itself is part of it, as it means 'sea monster' and replaced both Umi's real name and previous code-name Falcon), so when Umibozu finds Ryo in an embarrassing situation himself, Umibozu will snicker privately at best or let out hearty laughters at worst. After a hypnotist made Ryo believe he had a bigger penis, Umibozu takes the chance to mock Ryo, even running to Ryo's home to laugh in his face when rumors started saying that the loss in the penis contest had made him impotent.note At the end of the story arc, the hypnotist is tricked into making himself impotent permanently via Hypnotism Reversal. When Ryo's aerophobia is discovered, Umibozu, in addition to laughing out loud, also chases Ryo with a remote airplane toy to freak him out, right up until Ryo gets fed up and shoves said airplane into his face. When a weaponsmith entrusts her baby daughter to Ryo without Ryo's knowledge (he's drunk at the time), Ryo briefly finds himself caring for the baby while looking for said weaponsmith.

Angel Dust blocks pain receptors, causes a permanent adrenaline rush and makes the victim extremely suggestible, and in one case caused him to go into a rage, and the withdrawal tends to kill (apparently only Ryo survived).
