If COPS, Comedy Central's RENO911! and TNT's WANTED all got together
and had a baby...and gave that baby a sword(s)... it would be
Kyoto911!
set in a strange alternate universe in a hybrid city resembling Los
Angles, Tokyo/Kyoto, HOng Kong and San Francisco. The New New
Selection Group all live happily in a nearby suburb where they share
a communal bath (this was suggested by captain Takeda) and to build a
sense of camaraderie they all have a chance to room with capt. Takeda
atleast once a week on a rotating basis (this too was suggested by
capt. Takeda).

If Kondou looks like he is about to cry that's because he knows his
men too well.
Okita after growing out of the purple hair and pet pig phase moved
onto a J-pop look.
Itou-sensei originally was recruited to be a military strategist
however he prowls the halls of their headquarters in his loose
fitting (and tends to fall off during inappropriate moments) black
crepe kimono and constantly poses for an imaginary camera.
Nagakura has been demoted several times for his tendency to run to
Matsudaira Katamori and "tattle" as Kondou calls it. He currently
works at koban (police box) where he gives directions and
occasionally holds up a stop sign for children crossing the street.
Harada was assigned to guard and inspect the docks and search for
illegal imported weapons. Sadly, he has interpreted his seaside job
as nothing more than a chance to play "lifeguard" for attractive
female swimmers. Occasionally he works overtime by applying sun tan
lotion on the mentioned attractive females. Due to the strict dress
code he was not allowed to wander around in his swim trunks,
therefore he adopted an old battered life jacket.
Hijikata, while at his weekly salon appointment was called on an
emergency and thus his hair was burned a nice corn blonde.
Nakano Takeko is the leader of Aizu's Joushitai (Women's Brigade).
She was sent by Teruhime, who expressed grave doubts over her adopted
brother's choice in men for the job, to inspect and report on the
Shinsengumi. Nakano Takeko has realized that her orders and
suggestions are taken more seriously if she sports her bullet proof,
extra shiny, sleeveless body tight armor.
Lastly, the man Matsudaira Katamori calls to drive him to the nearest
Starbucks for a green tea Frapacinno is Saitou Hajime. His quiet
demeanor is a shield for his shocking insecurity and fear of change.
Behind his back he is called horrible things like "the unknown MIB
agent". He has refused to cut his long hair because one of the new
ladies at the emergency switchboard, Tokio an associate of Nakano
TAkeko, likes his hair like that.
