>inb4 someone tries to claim Baccano! is good

>>147447167
That shit was so full of nothing.

I've never read it, but maybe Gangsta is good?

Baccano! is a literally almost perfect anime if they didn't cut shit from it

Japan can't into anime about SERIOUS criminals. Lupin III was perfectly acceptable criminal anime but it was a comedy. If it's a comedy, they can make it work; anything else they chicken out or shit the bed on.

>>147447123
Lupin was here, but he left with the trips

>>147447123
That is because japan has little experience with crime as they have some of the lowest crime rates in the world

shitty america and europe on the other hand are always fill with people who want to shoot and rob

Meh story.

Black lagoon

Golgo 13
Lupin III
Cobra
Magic Kaito (this was pretty good, a shame that only like 4 anons watched it)
Cat's Eye

I'm gonna name Gungrave and Michiko to Hatchin, but both series are rather mediocre when compared to crime fiction from other media.

The story itself is from the late 80s.

Is OP retarded?

Psycho-pass S1 was a good police drama. Phantom of the Requiem and Darker than Black were both pretty good too. We'll never get anything like bones or law and order though. Phoenix Wright might be similar but I've never watched /played/read it.

>>147449728

Is there any anime with the spirit of Lupin III Pilot episode?

>>147451093
Lupin III is a Japanese created Character
Aresene Lupin is not

The character of Lupin is only half Japanese which explains why he has beautiful rounds eyes instead of chink eyes which is nice.

Overall He IS a Japanese created character with his own personality and stories thus an acceptable answer.

Unless that anon has particularly shit taste its the first one. This year has run rampant with massive disappointments.

Real world criminals are boring and stupid. You want a realistic depiction of some SEA pirates? Here it is:

Capt. Retard and his crew of dumbshits gets drunk and high, then race out on their boat to try and rob a huge container ship. The merchant marines onboard lay down suppressive fire with several deck mounted M60s. Capt Retard and 5 of his crew mates get their brains blown out on the deck, the rest of the crew cowers in fear below deck. Then they dump the bodies and the smartest retard left becomes Captain Retard. The go to a bar and fuck some hookers while reevaluating their lives. Then the next day they go out and try it again.

It's bad. They took a novel setting and stuck totally cookie-cutter generic anime characters into it. The only differences between 91 Days and a high school drama anime are the clothes and the murder.

>>147453058
The pilot still had ridiculousness, especially with the disguise

and sure, 2 has plenty of silliness but you can't throw all of it under the bus

Part 2 is just really inconsistent. You've got episodes about Lupin plotting lethal revenge against assassins or even cops, alongside even killing the president of the Not-USA for attempting to use him - right alongside episodes where Zenigata claims that Lupin never killed anyone and he'd need to put him down if he became a killer. Although, yeah, the general atmosphere is more to the light and goofy side, with Lupin in many episodes just going out of his way to help people like a random JRPG hero in sidequests.

Part 3 also suffers from that inconsistency, but I think after the first 5 or so episodes it actually settles on a more serious take on Lupin. Even when the drawing style becomes goofy it had probably one of the smoothest takes on him in episode 30.

Depends on the crime, drug traffickers and Wall Street criminals are based.
