The dynamics between poverty, crime and drug use this depicts are painfully real. In fact, poverty is a driving force for many of the characters on all sides of the story, from one of the protagonists, who lost someone to it, to one of the villains, who's just trying to make a place for people suffering from it and will harshly punish anyone who wastes food. Never waste food.
The team clearly had more ambitious ideas, which were hamstrung by the limited budget and number of episodes, but they did wonders with what they had. It looks good, is smartly directed and genuinely funny, all while tackling serious issues.
I honestly like it even more than the original series, whose sequel will hopefully mine some of the unused material left by its spinoff.

This is a nice episodic series on a police unit specialized on drugs in a slightly crazy, but still believable setting. Its unusual and non-conventional way of storytelling and its good sense of humor are outstanding. Unfortunately the series has to fight with a really cheap animation budget and the constraints of its lengths - many stories could have needed more time to properly unfold and felt a little bit rushed. Nevertheless this in an entertaining watch.
