Background

The series was originally aired from 1984 to 1987. In June 2006, a rebroadcasting of the original series was announced.[2] Critics bemoan the series' violence, and lack of suitability for children's education. Proponents of the show claim that it is merely for entertainment.[3] The show's violence far outweighs that of Tom and Jerry, in that there is frequent use of guns, and blood and gore.

An animated movie based on the series, Mr. Black: Green Star, was released for Chinese theaters in 2015.

Story

The story takes place in a forest, where the Black Cat Detective wanders around on his motorcycle stopping villains. Cases range from clashing with mice and other characters.[4]

gollark: I think it could be done with raycasting but it'd be vulnerable to the player moving too fast or teleporting.
gollark: Maybe enslaved skeletons. But they're hard to manage because disableAI doesn't work.
gollark: I see. Troubling. I don't think we can make bow sentries work at all.
gollark: We should discuss something more important, like what a great idea it is to buy [HG]Tech™ bee products at excellent prices.
