Remember this post (http://sara-tanaquil.livejournal.com/tag/odoru)? ^_^

Aoshima (the character in my icon) is the lead character of the police drama you mention (踊る大捜査線 [Odoru Daisousasen]; I've never learned to call it Bayside Shakedown, it's always been Odoru to me), and I think he's the one that speaks the line that you quote. He routinely gets into trouble with his superiors for defying protocol.

You really should watch the drama, it's awesome.
