As buddy cop you can get without being 'cops' plus the story goes into really great depth on the characters and watching their growth and understanding of eachother is really heartwarming. Its a mecha but I wouldnt let that stop you if youre not really into mecha since it's not the main focus of the show + its more of an iron man suite vibe than gundam war machines.

An opposing pair working together and they do learn from eachother, there is just a little more of group formation but the main two are defintely the focus. Highly reccomend for the rare competent female lead. Shounen fighitng + mystery.

Great watch for any fans of mafia aesthetics, these guys arent solving crime per sey, but theyre definitley involved in crime. Now whilst I woulnd't say this is the strongest show of buddy cop as I feel theres not a strong emphasis on conflict between the two, its a damn good show. They focus more on the two learning about eachother I'd say. There is a season 2 as well.

Was reminded heavily of Kugou Keiji in the first episode. A detective story so it really fits into a buddy cop, it follows different mysteries each an 1-3 episodes, but there is an overarching plot. I don't know how to describe it but this show reminds me of scooby doo in a way. They both kinda get along, its your classic straight man to wacko comedic duo.

So I am only 1 episode deep into this currently airing anime. It seems like its a buddy cop. Actually Its the reason I made the list I just deadass forgot about it exisitng while making the list. I was thinking to myself Jee I sure wtach alt of buddy cop- I digress; I doubt I'm gonna watch it anytime soon though, if anyone has a description i can put in do message!

Its basically what if sherlock was constantly on crack (which i guess he kinda was) and lived in japan. We obviously have a watson as our counter. solving mysteries and getting into spats. A good classic buddy cop, only theres is focus on other relations, so I would lean saying it incorparates buddy cop rather than being buddy cop.

So this is a show. I wont say you're likley to like this. I feel like the niche for this is if 'psuedo gay exorcism ghost hunting' appeals to you. If you read that and went 'wtf', move on. If you read that and like me went, 'finally'. proceed.

So this show, is what I'd descibe as a trianwreck. but its my precious trainwreck. So watch at your own caution. Its got a rag tag group vibe, one of the shows Id say incorpated buddy cop rather than is buddy cop. They solve mysteries and I like the fact this show has a sort of overrarching plot.

So this show has a bl tag. And im telling you know when 15 year old me watched this I did even know being gay was a thing(no cap). So my point being its definitely not the main focus of the show (to either the dissapointment or joy of some people). Its a bit of an odd show but I did enjoy the plot and the mystery. It is definitley dated though.

Now I know what youre thinking... Is this a show about two suspiciously close vatican preist ikemens who travel around solving mysteries. YES yours so right. Amen. Now whilst this lacks to be a true buddy cop imo as they booth get along quite splendidly despite their differences, they do solve mysteries together.

I have a confession. I watched 1 episode, got bored af and never touched this again. However on the off chance you are STARVED for content. Im assuming its about cops (the title, ik im so smart) and well, they look like theyd probably have differeing opinions. hmu if apparenly im just wrong.

So im basically lying at this point but theres many points in which the mc has to work with someone he really hates. Its definitely a key part of the show, together they solve mysteries and stuff, and they have to learn how to deal with eachother. Would i call this a buddy cop... probably not but its just almost there.
