Review of Police in a Pod

Slice-of-Life police drama? Not sure how to describe this, but SoL is definitely part of it, and true SoL too. Outside of an ending arc these are individual stories about how hard it is to be a police officer told by a frankly hopeless cast of cops. Well, are they hopeless or brilliant? That's honestly part of the charm. Also, I don't know how true to life this is so I recommend taking it with a pinch of salt and not a true representation. The characters are fun, not super fleshed out but they are enjoyable to spend time with and they do have unique personalities.The animation style is clean but on the budget end of things, beautiful isn't a word I'd use but distinctive is. The stories are fun for the most part, but it doesn't shy away from harder topics, though it also doesn't really dwell on them. Don't expect it to say much, just show you the situation and expect your empathy to do the rest.

Honestly on top of having a good time it reminded me just how hard and unforgiving being a cop anywhere is. Go in with empathy and I think you'll get a ton out of this one, more than you expect.
