The upcoming Police in a Pod anime swears to expose the drab life of the police. Solving mysterious cases in a matter of seconds and getting flashy news coverage? Nun-uh, you’ll be getting a dose of reality in this series.
Right away, the anime will show you how the protagonist is fed up with her job as a police officer. Yet, what keeps her going is a new colleague whose straight-cut ways give her a new perspective on things.
The Police in a Pod anime will be released on January 5, 2022. Episode 1 of the series was pre-screened on December 5 during a special cast event.
A new trailer has also been posted for the anime:
The trailer reveals all the main characters of the series, including the protagonists Mai Kawai and Seiko Fuji. All the troubles that the police department goes through on a daily basis are shown in the PV.
The rivalry between the police and the FBI is also hilariously portrayed. All stereotypes will be thrown out the window as this duo hits the streets and shows us the various responsibilities of the police.
Some new cast members have also been revealed:
| Character | Cast | Other Works |
| Seiji Minamoto | Ryōta Suzuki | Ryōhei Yamanouchi (Tsurune) |

Police in a Pod is one of those rare series that aims to give you a realistic experience rather than exaggerated heroics.
