Plot Summary: Shibata Taketora is a police officer at a police box who, for uncertain reasons, has the appearance of a middle-school student. Despite his outward appearance, he carries with him a dream to make life safe for the youth of Japan. Thankfully, his best friend and also troubled "Youth" Koujirou Fujiki is there to support him with his connection to the gangs of Shibuya. While confronting many hardships due to his appearance, Taketora's unexplained ability to see when death is surrounding someone carries him from one troubled youth to the next.
