- Heat Guy J could be described as a crime-drama anime, in the same way that Ghost in the Shell could be described as a crime-drama anime. Daisuke Aurora, a laid-back Special Services officer, and his powerful android partner J, known as the Heat Guy because of the need to vent superheated air from his body after periods of action, work to solve crimes and catch the more dangerous criminals that plague the city of Judoh.

| abstract
| - Heat Guy J could be described as a crime-drama anime, in the same way that Ghost in the Shell could be described as a crime-drama anime. Daisuke Aurora, a laid-back Special Services officer, and his powerful android partner J, known as the Heat Guy because of the need to vent superheated air from his body after periods of action, work to solve crimes and catch the more dangerous criminals that plague the city of Judoh. Supporting cast include Clair Leonelli, Ax Crazy villain and boss ('Vampire') of the Leonelli crime family; Ken Edmundo, perpetually irritated crime scene investigator; Kyoko Milchan; accountant for the Special Services Division who briefs Daisuke on his cases, and Boma, mysterious swordsman searching for someone called 'Usagi'. The 26-episode series was produced by Satelight. It was licensed in the United States by Geneon, in the United Kingdom by Manga Entertainment, and in Australia and New Zealand by Madman Entertainment. Infamous for how much Geneon paid for it (as much as FUNimation paid for Fullmetal Alchemist) and how little it sold.
