Tokusou Robo Janperson (特捜ロボ ジャンパーソン, Tokusō Robo Janpāson) was the 1993 installment in Toei Company Limited's Metal Hero Series. The series revolved around Janperson, a robotic detective who patrolled the streets of Tokyo and fought against three different underworld organizations who used super technology to subjugate the masses. Unlike most Metal Heroes, a monster-of-the-week was rarely shown and most of the villains are criminals akin to television police dramas. The name given to this series by Toei for international distribution is Jumperson.^[1]

Characters

Main

Janperson (ジャンパーソン, Janpāson)

A purple & silver android robot who works as a detective. He was once a prototype combat robot known as MX-A1, driven berserk by the command to "Destroy Evil," which led to his deactivation. He was later stripped of most weaponry and reprogrammed with human emotions by the young female scientist Kaoru Saegusa. Like RoboCop, he upholds the law but he is purely mechanical. He is seen to be the kind of police officer who never gives up that easily. He also has problems dealing with his former life as MX-A1 when he is forced to destroy evil easily.

Gun Gibson (ガンギブソン, Gan Gibuson)

A grey, heavy-armed android created by the Gang Guards to destroy Janperson, he later switched sides and became Janperson's android partner. Armed with two guns - one with an aiming bullet and the other a dumb bullet. He was later armed with a powerful bazooka which he used in battle and had a motorcycle that he uses during battles. Although thought to have been destroyed by Bill Goldy near the finale, he was shown to have survived well enough and joined in the final battle. He had an android-girlfriend named Carol who was also made by the Gang Guards and was killed by the Gang Guards during their first battle with Janperson. Carol was revived by Kaoru at the end of the series, only to be killed again.

Kaoru Saegusa (三枝 かおる, Saegusa Kaoru)

A young female scientist who is one of Janperson's creators. She reactivated and reprogrammed Janperson after it was shut down the first time by placing human emotions inside it. She gets and gives information to Janperson about his nemesis during the series. She somewhat betrayed Janperson towards the end of the series by destroying their headquarters and reviving Gun Gibson's android-girlfriend Carol. It was found out that these are only just her undercover strategies to get the confidence of Tatewaki/Bill Goldy and find a way to help Janperson to defeat him.

Shuhei Saegusa (三枝 周平, Saegusa Shūhei)

An elementary school student who is Kaoru's younger brother.

Koujiro Komori (小森 好次郎, Komori Kōjirō)

A senior police detective. He is best known by the self-styled moniker the Batman of the Metropolitan Police Department (桜田門のバットマン, Sakuradamon no Battoman) due to his surname often mispronounced as the Japanese word for "bat" (蝙蝠, kōmori). Though capable, he has since fallen into a slump, becoming a third-rate and seemingly incompetent cop. Despite this, Koujirou still maintains high airs, delegating menial tasks to his junior partner Shiro Takaido ranging from paying his food bill up to his grooming.

A running gag in the show is that he always seems to get into close encounters with a plastic garbage bin while pursuing criminals, most notably getting flung head-first into it. Koujirou resents being upstaged by Janperson, and takes it upon himself to unmask the real identity of the mysterious hero. He is portrayed by Takahiko Ota who previously portrayed Shingo Takasugi/Green Two in Choudenshi Bioman.

Shiro Takaido (高井戸 志郎, Takaido Shirō)

Komori's junior detective subordinate. He no longer shows up after the first 13 episodes. He is portrayed by Junichiro Katagiri, who previously portrayed Shunshuke Hino/Yellow Turbo in Kousoku Sentai Turboranger.

Aki Wakabayashi (若林 アキ, Wakabayashi Aki)

a JBC TV reporter. Although she has positive views of Janperson, she is disgusted by the police's incompetence (In fact, at the end of the first episode, when Komori was watching the news, she calls the police incompetent), clashing with Komori. She no longer shows off after the episode 6.

R-Zico (アールジーコ, Ārujīko)

A robot ally of Janperson, he can connect to the Jan Digic to become the Zic Cannon. He tends to call Janperson "Janper-chan" (the first appearance only), Gun Gibson "Ganmodoki", and Kaoru "Mammy".

He usually executes silly plans at first, but later on became serious with his schemes. He tried to frame Janperson, by impersonating his identity through his alter ego, as Bill Goldy, and used his name, in vain, but ingeniously failed. In the end, Janperson and Gun Gibson killed him once and for all, as the only means to save the world, as he was already far too dangerous. He was stabbed by Janperson, at the heart, with the Jan Blade. His final words before his destruction were, "I'll be back."

A blow to R3's head caused him to access positive emotions, forcing the Neo Guild to take corrective action.
