I actually found the episode quite funny. My favorite part is Eddie Murphy's cameo. I couldn't stop laughing whenever they showed that black guy. He just looks so much like Eddie haha. And the predator bits were pretty hilarious.

This episode was pretty bad. It was so bad that it lost the good appeal Mad Bull had for the first 2 episodes. Dissapointing.

This right here. Started off crazy but kind of good in a messed up way, but then each episode got worse and worse. Finally ending with this Predator 2 knock off nonsense. Just the worst. Glad to be done with this one.

Pretty cheesy compared to the previous ones, which were very cheesy in the first place.

Alien with a Predator laser cannon who slices cops with Halo plasma blades with Lightsaber sounds turns out to be an ex-Olympian ebony hottie who's a direct relative to Eddie Murphy xD

The end was a little sad in a way I didn't expect :/ Pretty bad in a good way so imma gonna rate this a 7 for now.

I think by this point in the manga (remember this is a manga adaptation) Koike just wanted to make a more straightforward tribute to cheesy action films instead of being totally jokey and over the top. It's still self aware and willfully cheesy but a bit more earnest than usual. I didn't enjoy it as much as the past goofy stuff but it wasn't outright bad IMO; I still liked it, just... less. The action and violence were cool and the occasional overtly funny moments were still good, like Sleepy tearing the bed apart.

You know how Panty & Stocking was mostly goofy low brow comedy but had some moments with a level of seriousness, even some sad moments? I took this ep the same way.

Yeah, the 1st 3 were better than this last one. But, I still enjoyed it.

8/10

Ohhh now I see now why this series has such a bad reputation, quite a shame honestly, the last 3 episodes were pretty entertaining but this is a pretty shitty way to end things.

Underrated anime, not gem or big memories, but certain funny wtf moments make you either laugh or lose yourself.

This episode wasn't good at all.

Still a 7/10, the other ones were priceless.

I remember watching Madbull 34 like a decade ago because of some Manga video traiiler and dropping it in the middle of ep 4. Watching this episode again reminded me why I did it. The idea about this anime was being an over the top ridiculous, super violent and over sexualized cop story. The first 3 delivered a good tribute (or parody) to those cops movies from the 80s. This one, not that much. But still, a fine anime. I probably enjoyed it more than what I should.

oh yes, this manga video trailer:

I personally enjoyed this episode.

I love this kind of "Questionable" plots. Where you can see a good story, yet you also feel somewhat "wrong" about it... and then you realize that this feeling of "wrong" was dictated by society we live in, and it's not your personal opinion, rather it's the feeling society wants you to feel.
So, in actual personal feelings, i loved this episode. I actually unironically found this story interesting and i cared for the characters.

But that's how i always was. I always take plot seriously when it takes itself seriously. And i found the romantic in this episode very good.

Geeze! The first 3 episodes were great and their stories were fitting scenarios for this crazy New York setting, but this last episode doesn't sit well with me because of the weird inclusion of Predator-esque light armor that came out of nowhere. Mixing some sci-fi in the story of Mad Bull 34 doesn't blend well, and it left a sour taste in my mouth. However, the ending was really sad. Sleepy just couldn't take home a woman who would love him and be with him for the rest of his life. *sigh* Poor guy...

I originally rated this 8/10 but had to drop it into 7/10 because of this final episode.

WOWWW sad. This was one episode where even I don't know where it was going to head. She trick him, he trick her? double suicide? happy end? lol but we got the saddest most touching ending, ya never know with Sleepy.....but Sleepy really meant to die with her, not kill her, not a joke or like the usual rescue he really laid his heart out, after blowing people's head and all the crazy stuff to be New York's protector cop. What a way to wrap up the story with some sad contrast after all the manly epic police and comedy action. 10/10 BEST SHORT OVA I EVER SEEN !!!

Blatant ripoff of Predator, Aliens and maybe even Transformers. It's tongue-in-cheek grindhouse movie parody, complete with hammy romance between Sleepy and Cindy. When modern anime are over the top, they don't even hold a candle to the madness of Mad Bull 34.
