Dolphin Cop - End So I know a lot of people rightfully dismissed this series after its terrible first chapters (a lot of that was also due to the worst fucking timing with the second big wave of BLM protests starting up at the same time), but I swear to you it got better. It's still low-level Japanese copaganda, but the audacity gets traded off with ridiculousness. For those who don't know Dolphin Cop is a series done by Beezlebub creator Ryuhei Tamura about a cop who gets assigned to work an island and his partner is a dolphin who is also a cop. It's more shonen battle than NCIS but once it finds its footing, it's got the same charming blend of comedy and action as Beezlebub did. Of all the canned shonen series, this one felt like it had a plan at least. Ending has shockingly good pacing, some really interesting reveals, and is just a lot of ridiculous fun. Unfortunately, it took way too long to find its footing, and that footing is another battle manga in a sea of battle manga, but I really loved Beezlebub, and this hit that itch for me. If you've got an afternoon give it a try with the knowledge it ends strong.
