Yakushiji Ryoko is a Superintendent in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and with her lackey/slave/[[The Chew Toy|chew toy]] Assistant Inspector Junichiro Izumida [[They Fight Crime]], though more often than not the cases end up involving the paranormal. While being in the Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Investigation Bureau, Ryoko is the daughter of JACES President Hiroko Yakushiji, who is an ex-MPD high-ranking officer. As such, she is the "official" Yakushiji known in the public to be standing ready to succeed her father. Think ''[[Law and Order]]'' [[X Meets Y|meets]] ''[[The X -Files]]'' meets ''[[James Bond]]'' and you have a rough idea of what the show's like.
 
Notable for featuring an adult female protagonist [[Christmas Cake|above the age usually considered attractive]] who is still [[Badass]] [[Action Girl|and incredibly competent]] while also being [[Hello, Nurse!|extremely sexy]].
Line 46:
* [[Driving Question]]: We all like to know what happened to the {{spoiler|original Ruriko and Nonogase since they're just clones. And who made another Ruriko clone after all?}} Also, who was responsible for conspiring with Ruriko to put Ryoko's name in slander?
* [[Dual Wield]]: Yukiko using dual Howa Type 89s.
* [[The End - Oror Is It?]]: {{spoiler|The ending for the series does show Ruriko's clone was made yet again. Ryoko told Izumida that she wants to hunt down the people/persons who conspired with Ruriko.}} Although one would wonder if the ratings and the fanbase in Japan would qualify for another season.
* [[Foreshadowing]]: You know the nightmare of a Ryoko-like person shooting herself in the noggin'? {{spoiler|That person appears to be Monami, or possibly an earlier, failed clone.}}
* [[Fun Withwith Acronyms]]: JPP or Japan Private Police. JESS or Japanese Empire Security Service. The only abbreviation unknown is JACES. (That is, if Yoshiki Tanaka ever gave out an acronym defintion)
* [[Gaia's Vengeance]]: How one can interpret the entirety of episode 7.
* [[Ghost City]]: Everyone in Tokyo was told to stay off the streets due to anti-terrorist training by the JGSDF. {{spoiler|This is due to Ruriko's work of course.}}
Line 59:
* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: The dual maids using an airport baggage cart to knock down a purse thief in Narita Airport.
** Lot of more instances in the manga. Ryoko uses a pool cue to beat up some mooks. In the Black Spider Incident in Canada, Izumida decides to use his necktie. His friggin' NECKTIE, ya hear?!
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: See [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]].
* [[Useful Notes/Kaiju Defense Force|Kaiju Defense Force]]: A rogue faction of the JGSDF participate in an anti-terrorist exercise, which is {{spoiler|meant to take down Ryoko.}}
** Most of the JPP's manpower comes from ex-SDF personnel.
