Jiraishin, also known as Ice blade, anyone reading it? if not its a great cop drama/action manga about a cold cop named Ida who doesn't take shit from anyone and he is a very good judge of justice as well as a badass. From the first chapter which is about 90 pages long, you get a good feel for the story. For you Rurouni Kenshin fans out there, the first chapter is almost a homage to the Enishi arc. Ida saved a girl from killing herself 5 years previous and she fell in love with him, he did not return her love and eventually arrested her for murder. Then in jail she died so then her brother who was furious due to her death blamed it on Ida(like Enishi for Kenshin killing Tomoe). Her bro had light hair and earings like Enishi also. Then he tried to go get help from a gang(sort of like how Enishi rose to the top of the shanghai gang and he was an arms dealer) well the gang he went to he got a gun from like an arms dealers of sorts then he killed the men. like enishi did to Wu Heisen(more just fucked him up). Then for revenge, he took one of his fellow detectives wives captive(like kidnapping Kaoru) then the final battle was on the beach(like the EnishixKenshin fight). Weird more than likely a homage to RK. I strongly suggest reading this manga.
