Good to see the original TV series on TV over here at least, even though this is very random for it to just appear suddenly on a niche channel that a lot of people probably don't have. Where was this back when I HAD cable? :/ Would be cool to see it reissued on DVD. Paging Discotek...

Bizarre choice for a Hispanic children’s channel. Though I think they try to skew their anime a little older - they even aired Dinosaur King with a TV-14 rating. Shocked

Was there really anything in the first season that wouldn't be appropriate for even a TV-14 rating?

All I can think of is maybe some slightly risque content involving Aoi, but it's pretty tame by today's standards.

The ecchi-er content from the manga (plus ecchi filler) got sequestered in a separate series of (mostly) short-form segments that originally aired on an adult-oriented late night variety show in Japan in 1999, if I remember correctly. I doubt Primo licensed those.

If it's the 1996-97 You're Under Arrest TV series (which included the 1994-95 OVA as the first four episodes) and which obviously was animated for 4:3, I do have to wonder whether they're going to air it pillarboxed or whether it will be cropped for 16:9?

Does an HD transfer, even just upscaled, of the 1996 TV series even exist? I can't find anything about the 1996 TV series ever getting a Blu-Ray release in Japan although I suppose they could have been remastered in HD for broadcast even without a Blu-Ray release.

I sure hope so, one day...
