The rumors surrounding the Inferno Cop series have been circulating within certain "otaku" circles for quite some time, touting it as the most epic anime to ever grace our screens, although the number of enthusiasts pales in comparison to the legion of Boku no Pico fans. However, unlike in Boku no Pico, Inferno Cop doesn't offer an abundance of tender, affectionate moments; instead, it revels in relentless trolling with practically every second and every frame. This explains the stark polarization in user ratings across various anime databases. What one person may criticize about Inferno Cop, another may consider a significant virtue—it all depends on whether they are on the same "trolling wavelength" as the creators.
Basically, everything about Inferno Cop is over the top and absurd: the artwork and animation feature static movement of objects, characters devoid of facial expressions, and explosions rivaling those found in Michael Bay movies. The characters and voice actors add to the madness, with a pregnant woman dubbed by a man. The soundtrack includes a final theme song sung in broken, comical, and almost incomprehensible German. And last but not least, the "story"... well, you can judge for yourself just how "epic" it truly is.
Personally, I'm inclined to give it a strong three-star rating because I thoroughly enjoyed this madness (and I won't miss a potential sequel, of course). It's just a shame that there were a few episodes that fell rather flat and didn't quite hit the mark in terms of quality trolling.
