    if for some reason you, random reader of this comment, decide to start watching Patlabor, be aware that there are two continuities:

    1. Patlabor The Early Days (88-89, 7 OVA) -> Patlabor (89, Movie) -> Patlabor 2 (93, movie)

    2. Patlabor The TV Series (89-90, 47 eps) -> Patlabor The New Files (90-92, 16 eps) -> Patlabor EZY (26-27, 3 movies)

    I'd definitely recommend the Patlabor TV show if "slice of life, police procedural with mechs" is something that feels attractive to you.
