| Shibatora (Manga) | comment |
Shibatora is a manga series written by Yuma Ando and illustrated by Masashi Asaki, which was serialized in Weekly Shonen Magazine from 2006 to 2009. It was adapted into a live action drama in 2008.Shibata Taketora is a police detective, working in the Koenji Station Public Safety Department, Youth Division, to bring help and guidance to troubled and victimized teens and children. His credibility is hampered though, by the fact that he looks even younger than most of the teens he's supposed to be policing. But he has powerful assets on his side; a deceptively keen analytical mind, national champion level kendo skills, an apparently supernatural ability to sense when others are in peril, and most important of all, an overwhelming ability to see and bring out the best in the people around him.Although it tends towards the idealistic end of the scale, Shibatora delves deeply into some sensitive issues such as child abuse, drug addiction, and sexual exploitation, making it significantly darker than most Shōnen series. | |

Badass Adorable: Shibata, to a high degree. Even without a swordlike weapon available, he can usually handle himself with whatever comes to hand, even a simple pocket pen. | |

Generation Xerox: As it turns out, Taketora's father was also a kendo champion and police detective in the youth division of the same district, who carried the same ideals Taketora does. The prospect that their careers will be too similar is a worrying one, since he was killed by a juvenile delinquent in the same sort of criminal organization Taketora is facing in that arc. | |

Perp Sweating: Shibata is particularly good at this. However, this mostly happens with characters who haven't actually been arrested yet. When another policeman tries this on Kuma once he's been formally arrested, Kuma points out that he can invoke his right to remain silent, and clams up completely. | |

Older Than They Look | |
| Shibatora (Manga) / int_2f36d97 | comment |
Older Than They Look: Shibata is 22, but is usually mistaken for a middle schooler thanks to his diminutive stature, baby face, and complete inability to grow facial hair. When dressed in a middle school uniform, he easily blends into a class of actual teenagers with none of them the wiser, to the point that his bosses note that he's started talking like them too. Angel's modus operandi also relies on this trait. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| Shibatora (Manga) / int_3d699462 | comment |
Curb-Stomp Battle: A delinquent high schooler challenges Shibata to a kendo match, but knowing that Shibata is an expert, demands that he get to use a bokken (a solid wooden sword, much heavier than the bamboo shinai,) and Shibata have the handicap of fighting without protective equipment, and that they fight until one of them can't get up. Not only does Shibata accept the terms, he doesn't even need a shinai, he beats his opponent down with an imaginary blade. Afterwards, he compliments the delinquent's aptitude, for instinctively reacting to the sword as if it were real. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure | |
| Shibatora (Manga) / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: Chiba Sakura, Chief of the Public Safety Youth Division. Despite the fact that Shibata is definitely not a By-the-Book Cop, she tolerates his methods because he shows so much success in genuinely helping and rehabilitating at-risk kids, not simply making arrest quotas. Shibata himself is one to the kids he polices. | |

Friend to All Living Things | |
| Shibatora (Manga) / int_e21faf11 | comment |
Friend to All Living Things: Doesn't come up much since they're living in the middle of a city, but Shibata alludes to this being the case for him in one of the flashbacks. | |

Magic Realism | |
| Shibatora (Manga) / int_e6ab61d | comment |
Magic Realism: Shibata's ability to see "shinigami hands" is implicitly supernatural, but the rest of the series stays strictly within the realm of the mundane. | |

Crusading Lawyer | |
| Shibatora (Manga) / int_e9505dd1 | comment |
Crusading Lawyer: Kuma Gorou. He's set up to be an Amoral Attorney given his son's despicable behavior and expectation that his father will come to his defense, but he turns out to be one of these. | |

Younger Than They Look | |
| Shibatora (Manga) / int_e9db9908 | comment |
Younger Than They Look: Yagi Yuria, AKA Mary-chan, can pass for over eighteen while she's working at a maid cafe, but is actually only twelve. After talking to her out of work, Shibata correctly concludes that her employer must have been able to tell she was underage, since she doesn't act any older than she really is. | |

Dirty Cop | |
| Shibatora (Manga) / int_eb251937 | comment |
Dirty Cop: Saitou, the cyber investigator. He first appears as a Spear Carrier of no particular distinction, but he's probably the single most despicable character in the series. | |

Buried Alive | |
| Shibatora (Manga) / int_f8f71b5f | comment |
Buried Alive: Happens to Shibata and Rika. The grave is shallow enough for them to dig their way out because the people who buried them weren't really trying to kill them at all. | |
