Cuticle Detective Inaba

Alternate Name: Kyutikuru Tantei Inaba

When the police need help, who they gonna call?  None other than, Inaba Hiroshi; The werewolf police dog who became a legend by tracking down a suspect with just a single hair.    With his power, he's able to identify anyone by touching their hair, and he can see their memories by putting the hair into his mouth.  His apprehension rate is 100%.  Wow...there's no denying... he gets the job done.

Cuticle Detective Inaba originated from a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Mochi.  The anime began airing in January of 2013.  It is licensed in North America by Sentai Filmworks, and currently streaming on Cruncyroll.

The 1st few minutes of episode one leads you to believe that the show has a serious side.  The police are tracking a thief...But wait????   Is that a chibi goat?????  Yep... a money eating Goat called Don Valentino known as the head of the mafia.   Then there's the cross-dressing boy who's Inaba's secretary.  Now some may find this type of humor amusing, but sadly, I just can't get into this type of overdone comedy.  If I was asked to give one plus about the show, it would be the character designs.  I would rank them high on my list, but that's about all.  As always, it's only my humble opinion.  I'm sure there are many people who love this genre.
