History Series / TokusouSaizensen

* EarnYourHappyEnding: The SeriesFinale. The department takes on a long, agonizing case where they has to deal with a powerful corrupt political party that their own colleagues and family are involved in, with the department's very existence put into quesion. In the end, [[spoiler: they successfully prosecute the criminals, and the department is expanded into two separate divisions led by Tachibana and Sakurai, respectively, while Kamio is promoted as overall section chief.]]

* PutOnABus:
** Detectives Funamura, Yozo Takasugi, Akira Tsugami, Jiro Taki, and Policewoman Mikiko Takasugi (Yozo's sister) all were dropped from the series. However, they would return as guests performers in later episodes.
** Happens to Kamio, Funamura, and Sakurai, twice each. [[TheBusCameBack Kamio and Sakurai would return]], but Funamura would leave the show as a regular for good after his second leave in Episode 430 and return as guest star for Episodes 499 and 500.

** Happens to Kamio, Funamura, and Sakurai, twice each, [[TheBusCameBack Kamio and Sakurai would return]], but Funamura would leave the show as a regular for good after Episode 430 and return as guest star for Episodes 499 and 500.

* TheAce: Detective Sakurai, being a crack shot while being a licensed helicopter pilot.Apparently Hiroshi Fujioka got his pilot's license during filming.

** The serial killer in Episode 107 has one when people smile or laugh, apparently because it reminds him of a painful break-up.

* FinalSeasonCasting: The show introduced two young detectives, Inukai and Sugi, for the last few episodes.

** One episode has Tachibana be framed, and he spends the majority of the episode trying to prove his innocence while dodging the police and his own colleagues.

* InfantImmortality: Very sadly averted in Episode 103, where the son of Sakurai's partner in New York is crippled for life by a hitman sent by a New York drug ring. Also averted in Episodes 107 and 136, where a schoolgirl is killed by a serial killer and boy gets kidnapped and drowned before the department can get to him (and while the kidnappers get away with the ransom) respectively.

* MultiPartEpisode: The series has many, many examples, with the average two-parter and the occasional three-parter. Curiously, the show tended to air two sets of two-parters back to back on occasion, and there's at least one case where they aired a three-parter episode ''right after'' they aired a two-parter.
* NebulousEvilOrganisation: In the SeriesFinale, the department faces against a [[RightWingMilitiaFanatic ultra-right wing]] the [[Main/YakuZa yakuza]]-associated political party calling itself the National Council for the Salvation of Japan, or Nissho-ren for short (an abbreviation of its Japanese name). The Nissho-ren is chock full of [[CorruptPolitician Corrupt Politcians]] and [[CorruptCop Corrupt Cops]] to the point that the East Shinjuku Police Department is riddled with its [[TheMole informants]]. It also supposedly has ties to [[Main/CUlt cults]] and [[Main/TheKlan The Klan]]. A bit of TruthInTelevision here as Japan's resident [[RightWingMilitiaFanatic Right Wing Militia Fanatics]] historically have had good relations and strong ties with the [[Main/YakuZa yakuza]], and they still do even to this day.

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: The cast only had two female regulars overall, and they never shared screentime as regulars.

** Episode 104 has a particularly cruel one. [[spoiler: Sakurai's old partner, whose son was crippled by a hitman working for a New York drug syndicate, is revealed to have become a drug mule for them so he can pay off the medical bills. Before Sakurai can book him, Tachibana has him shot. The episode ends a ray of hope however: Sakurai sends a remittance for the kid.]]
** The ending of Episode 506. [[spoiler: Tachibana succeeds in exonerating a serial killer of a murder-robbery he didn't commit, and it's revealed that the victim's boyfriend was responsible.]]

** Hideaki Nitani was absent for a few shows around the 100-episode mark. This was explained in-series as Kamio going on vacation. During this time he was temporarily replaced by one of his colleagues from the Tokyo MPD, Daisuke Mibu.

* TheAce: Both Detective Sakurai and Inspector Tachibana count as this, being crack shots while Sakurai is a helicopter pilot. Apparently Hiroshi Fujioka got his pilot's license during filming.

* TheBigGuy: Takasugi and Tachbana.

* ItsPersonal: Episodes 103-104 have Sakurai returning after a long absence to chase the head of a drug syndicate that he tried to bust while he was in New York. The syndicate also crippled the son of his partner, and he's in no forgiving mood.
** Episode 51 is this for Kamio as [[spoiler: he hunts for his daughter's killer]]. This is also him in last episode when his protege is revealed to be in cahoots with the episode's bad guys.

* NebulousEvilOrganisation: In the SeriesFinale, the department faces against a [[RightWingMilitiaFanatic ultra-right wing]] political party calling itself the National Council for the Salvation of Japan, or Nissho-ren for short (an abbreviation of its Japanese name). The Nissho-ren is chock full of [[CorruptPolitician Corrupt Politcians]] and [[CorruptCop Corrupt Cops]] to the point that the East Shinjuku Police Department is riddled with its [[TheMole informants]]. It also has ties to the [[Main/YakuZa yakuza]], [[Main/CUlt cults]], and even [[Main/TheKlan The Klan]].

** By the time the series ends, Kamio and Tachibana have become this.
* PromotedToOpeningCredits: Takasugi's sister, Mikiko.

** Another one appears in Episode 169.
** Tachibana [[spoiler: exonerates one of a murder-robbery he didn't commit in Episode 506.]]

[[spoiler: Sakurai's old partner, whose son was crippled by a New York drug syndicate, is revealed to have become a drug mule for them so he can pay off the medical bills. Before Sakurai can book him, Tachibana has him shot. The episode ends a ray of hope however: Sakurai sends a remittance for the bills in the kid's name.]]

* TheYakuza: Another recurring menace in the series, and they get the spotlight in Episodes 50 and 51 after [[spoiler: they have Kamio's daughter murdered.]]

* TheAce: Both Detective Sakurai and Inspector Tachibana count as this.
* AdultFear: A child is kidnapped in Episodes 136-137, Funamura's own daughter and grandson are kidnapped in Episodes 499-500.

* AmoralAttorney: One appears and gets whacked in Episode 50. Sakurai's father also is one.

* BerserkButton: Kamio's is corrupt cops. The fact that his mentor was one and his daughter [[spoiler: was killed by one]] doesn't help.

* CoolCar: The show was sponsored by Nissan, so the cast and crew had access to the company's top-of-the line cars.
** Hideaki Nitani was also an official spokesman for the Nissan Cedric, which was used in the later half of the show' run.

* CorruptPolitician: The cast faces off against them every now and then.

* FamilyDrama: One of the show's main selling points, and it occasionally crosses over with the department's investigations. Detective Junichi Kano, who joins the cast in Episode 148, is the illegitimate son of a politician, and in Episode 317 he has to confront his father as part of a case.

* FrameUp: One episode has Tachibana be framed, and he spends the majority of the episode trying to prove his innocence while dodging the police and his own colleagues.

* MacGuffin: Episode 70 has a spy satellite that fall into the ocean and the department tasked with its recovery.

* ProfessionalKiller: One shows up in Episodes 103-104 as an enforcer for a New York drug ring who also [[spoiler: crippled the son of Sakurai's partner.]]

* ReunionShow: Averted, post-series wise. When the series ended, the producer said that though the show was over, he didn't mind reviving it for a few reunion shows every now and then. Sadly, unlike its rival shows at the time, which did get a few reunions in the 90s and 2000s, ''Tokusou Saizensen'' never did get one.

* SerialKiller: The department faces against one in Episode 107, a sniper who targets people when they smile or laugh (apparently because it reminds him of a painful break up he had).

* TwistEnding: Episode 104 has a particularly cruel one. [[spoiler: Sakurai's old partner, whose son was crippled by a New York drug syndicate, is revealed to have become a drug mule for them so he can pay off the medical bills.

* TheYakuza: Another recurring menace in the series.

* SerialKiller: The department faces against one in Episode 107, a sniper who targets people when they smile or laugh (apparently because it reminds him of a painful break up he had). Tachibana also exonerates one in Episode 506 of a murder-robbery the killer did not commit.
