Kochikame (short for Kochira Katsushika-ku Kameari Koen Mae Hashutsujo, which translates to This Is the Police Station in Front of Kameari Park in Katsushika Ward) is a comedy manga that ran in Weekly Shonen Jump, written by Osamu Akimoto. The main character is Kankichi Ryotsu, a lazy, street-wise cop with salaryman tendencies, like playing Pachinko, betting at the horses or trying his luck at custom get-rich-quick schemes. Some times, he even does police work.Worthy to mention is that the manga does not have numbered chapters and was almost never considered to participate for the regular popularity polls in Shonen Jump note Shonen Jump's popularity polls determine which series are likely to be kept/cancelled, basically meaning Mr. Akimoto could continue the series as long as he wanted. And this series' heavy anti-cancellation armor showed: It ran weekly since it began in 1976, with 1960 chapters. There have been 201 volumes produced (and more than 360 episodes aired on Japanese TV), making Kochikame the longest-running manga series in history note Disregarding Golgo 13 and Doraemon, neither of which are in production currently.The series owes its longevity (and lack of chapter numbers) to the fact that it hardly ever uses continuing plots. Instead, each chapter is a self-contained comedy tale, usually involving Ryotsu trying to get rich via some sort of scheme, which invariably backfires horribly. The straightforward plots mean that generations of Japanese kids have been able to enjoy the series without prior knowledge of previous stories. The series has remained fresh by taking most of its humor from pop culture and real world events: often Ryo's latest scheme involves capitalizing on some current fad or event in the news.For its 30th anniversary in 2006, Mr. Akimoto was awarded with many of Shueisha's (and other publishers as well) artists making Crossovers with his series, such a event being legendary since when artists are invited to pay a homage to Long Running series in Jump, said artist will likely draw a character from the series with his own artstyle and not much else; Kochikame got actual crossovers, full self-contained stories and appearing in other Jump series as a cameo, it also made some artists who were working in nothing at all to get off their seats and make a story just for this ongoing legend.In 2016, after 40 full years in the business and 200 volumes, Kochikame finally came to an end, although it got a 201st volume on October 4, 2021 to compile a bunch of extra one-shot chapters that were published after the manga was done. | |

Those Two Guys | |
| Kochikame (Manga) / int_1c79ae8c | comment |
Those Two Guys: Tonpai Toda and Chinkichi Chida are two childhood friends of Ryotsu Kankichi that often join the young Ryotsu on his adventures. They mostly appear only in Ryotsu's childhood flashbacks, but do show up occasionally in the present day for a few episodes. One notable example being the three of them visiting their old school before its demolition and meeting with a girl who strongly resembles their now deceased childhood classmate who is revealed to be said classmate's daughter. | |

Butt-Monkey | |
| Kochikame (Manga) / int_47fea76b | comment |
Butt-Monkey Ryotsu is a victim of many misfortunes throughout the series. He even gets the ire of the anime's real-life animators in the 100th episode as they reduce the quality to nothing but pencil sketches. Honda gets his share when he's forced into Ryotsu's schemes and his craziness. Kankichi becomes this when it comes to his birthday. | |

The Gunslinger | |
| Kochikame (Manga) / int_9f7769a2 | comment |
The Gunslinger: Believe it or not, Ryotsu, of the quick draw variety. This was showcased in a very early manga chapter; as even unholstering one's service weapon is a major incident for a Japanese police officer, and is rarely—if ever—done, nevermind actually firing it. This aspect of him is not shown in the anime. | |

| Kochikame (Manga) / int_a9667a3b | comment |
Hero Insurance: Played with. Many episodes end with Ryo accidentally causing massive property damage throughout the town (though no-one is ever harmed). Some stories actually include an itemized list of damages showing exactly how much Ryo's latest escapade will cost the city (it's never cheap). Despite this, in the next chapter everything is always fixed and any expectations that Ryo will pay for the damage have been forgotten. | |

Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: When Ryotsu's mind is fixed on something, or when he (or any of his friends) is in real danger, he becomes extremely competent, demonstrating almost superhuman strength, endurance and cunning. At work, well, he's just a ne'er-do-well... though apparently he has the highest criminal-catching count of the Police Station. Also, bipolar motorcycle policeman Honda; he's usually a well-mannered, wimpish, slightly effeminate guy, but once he gets on his bike... | |

Ms. Fanservice: Reiko Catherine Akimoto. She is rather tall, wears a uniform with a short skirt and has distinctly large breasts which are especially emphasized in the manga series. In the manga series, her cleavage is often visible and sometimes becomes a point of focus for certain suggestive scenes. The emphasis on her breast size and the cleavage in her clothing are toned down for the anime series. | |

Flanderization | |
| Kochikame (Manga) / int_e5e6640b | comment |
Flanderization: At first, Nakagawa was more of a polite, well-mannered Ryotsu fanboy who had his moments of craziness that prompted Ryotsu to act as the voice of reason. Eventually, Nakagawa basically became a "male Akimoto", acting almost exclusively as a straight foil to Ryotsu (with a twist: while Nakagawa is the "straight man" and Ryotsu is the "loon", Ryotsu is a senior to Nakagawa and is very much respected by the latter). | |

The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: Though he's always wearing the uniform, years worth of chapters can go by without Ryo being shown doing any actual police work. Completely averted in The Movie which turns the series into a cop thriller, with mixed results. | |

Bara Genre: Considering how many times the main character or some guy winds up naked or gets their butt exposed, this trope is justified. Hell, Soup Gobin has plenty of posts about this on his blog. | |

Running Gag: Shiratori frequently attempts to impress Reiko, only failing after each try, to her indifference. | |

Perpetual Poverty: Ryotsu's convoluted money-making schemes always fail miserably, usually after an initial degree of success. He also often quickly wastes his paycheck the first days after obtaining it, forcing himself to survive with less than 1000 yen for the rest of the month. | |
