The Marginal Service
Foolhardy police officer Brian Nightraider is dismissed from the force for a history of reckless behavior that ultimately resulted in his partner's death. While wallowing in self-pity, the disgraced officer receives a curious invitation from the United Nations Immigration Bureau Special Investigation Unit. He has been recruited to join the Marginal Service, a secret underground branch of the UN tasked with handling Borderlanders.
Indistinguishable from humans, Borderlanders are aliens that peacefully coexist in society. But now, a Borderlander terrorist organization has emerged, manufacturing and distributing a potent drug called Confu. With the Borderlanders' ability to regenerate and blend in as humans, uncovering the drug-trafficking ring will be no easy undertaking. However, the ragtag group at the Marginal Service are not one to back down from a challenge—even as their work exposes some unexpected figures as Borderlanders.
L'officier de police téméraire Brian Nightraider est renvoyé de la force pour une histoire de comportement imprudent qui a finalement entraîné la mort de son partenaire. Alors qu'il s'apitoie sur lui-même, l'officier en disgrâce reçoit une curieuse invitation de l'Unité d'enquête spéciale du Bureau de l'immigration des Nations Unies. Il a été recruté pour rejoindre le Marginal Service, une branche clandestine secrète de l'ONU chargée de gérer les Borderlanders.
Indiscernables des humains, les Borderlanders sont des extraterrestres qui coexistent pacifiquement dans la société. Mais maintenant, une organisation terroriste Borderlander a émergé, fabriquant et distribuant une drogue puissante appelée Confu. Avec la capacité des Borderlanders à se régénérer et à se fondre en tant qu'humains, découvrir le réseau de trafic de drogue ne sera pas une entreprise facile. Cependant, le groupe hétéroclite du Marginal Service n'est pas du genre à reculer devant un défi, même si leur travail expose des personnages inattendus en tant que Borderlanders.

WTF?! Japan's answer to The Men in Black... the men in hard hats. What the hell did I just watched?
Mr. G
Black guy dies in the first thirty seconds. Is this an anime... or an American TV show? Main Character loses his partner chasing a perp, who ultimately kills himself after being forced by something neither we, nor the protagonist can see. Is taken off the police force for said loss of his partner. "All Cops Are Bastards" fully applies to the professional history of the main character: brutality, unlawful entry, destruction of property, etc.. An American who immigrated to Japan. Gets introduced to the idea of aliens, otherworlders, legendary/mythical creatures, and so on. Joins the Japanese equivalent to the Men in Black. Honestly, not the worst concept for a show the author could have used. Appears to be an international unit, too. Art style isn't bad. Turns into a sentai show at the end, complete with color coordinated costumes and codenames. Serious and silly taking turns in this one, it seems.

So it's a sentai noir spoof -- what else can I say?
