大激闘-マッドポリス'８０/特命刑事 - OP-ED Mad Police 80/Tokumei Keiji
BackStylistically "Dai Gekitou -- Mad Police '80" (Hard Impact - Mad Police '80) was very similar to the American TV Drama "S.W.A.T." (ABC/Spelling-Goldberg Productions; 1975). This was to be a series vehicle for veteran Toei movie tough guy Watase Tsunehiko (Sailor Fuku To Kikanjuu) and Umemiya Tatsuo who was probably best remembered as Kosaka Hiroshi, one of the motorcycle riding hoodlums in the 1970s Toei movie series "Furyo Bancho" (Juvenile Boss). Brother Watari Tetsuya was gaining much fame as detective Daimon Keisuke in the Ishihara Pro series "Seibu Keisatsu" (TV Asahi; 1979) which ultimately competed against this series and won decisively. Whether because of low ratings or pressure from Japanese PTA groups, the format of "Dai Gekitou -- Mad Cop '80" was changed drastically and the show soon became known simply as "Tokumei Keiji" (Special Operations Police). While most of the cast was retained, the violence was toned down considerably and two new detectives were introduced to lighten and humanize the show more. These changes did very little to change ratings and the show was soon canceled. Oddly enough Ishihara Pro's "Seibu Keisatsu" (Western Police), which was showing at the same time and had even more violence and bloodshed in it, soared in the ratings. Ohno Yuji's infectious and jazzy theme is reminiscent of many of his earlier works including the theme song to "Lupin San Sei AKA Lupin The Third" (Toho, 1979). Story: In 1980, Japan's Criminal Underworld united to form a more unified and organized criminal network. Allying itself with the Foreign Mafia, they grew to become an even more powerful Syndicate. Calling itself the "JM" or "Japan Mafia", this criminal cartel began its reign of corruption and crime. Unable to combat such an organized and monumental threat, The Japanese Metropolitan Police Force gathers together an elite team of specialists from its ranks to form a specialized combat unit specifically charged with the destruction of the "JM". Codenamed "MP" or Mad Police, these men and women use whatever means necessary to battle this imposing threat.
