Season 1:
We're introduced to Ryotsu Kankichi, a police officer who works in a police box in Kameari, a district in Tokyo. However, today he's late for work and is racing there on his bicycle in order to make it there on time. He manages to get there just barely on time, but ends up crashing his bike and breaking one of the police box's windows. In order to pay for the repairs, as well as pay everything he owes the shopkeepers in town, he ends up using his entire paycheck for the month, leaving him with only a few yen. Will he be able to figure out some way to survive the month without having any money to spend on food?
A new recruit is starting at the police box today, going by the name of Keiichi Nakagawa. He is the rich heir to the Nakagawa corporation, and as such he wears a custom-made designer-brand uniform. He also collects guns and is shown to be a fan of American action movies like Dirty Harry. For his first task as a police officer, him and Ryotsu attempt to give an old man directions to a restaurant. However, this man can't recall what the name of the place is, only having a drawing he drew in elementary school as a clue. On top of this, the man has a flight to catch in a few hours, so time is limited. Will Ryo and Nakagawa be able to find the restaurant in time, and if they do, will it live up to the old man's memories?
Ryotsu decides to open a mobile convenience store by hot air balloon, which the police marks it an illegal operation.
