Osaka Prefectural Police posters are so awesome they make us want to enlist
From recruitment ads to safety reminders, the folks in Osaka sure know how to strike the right chord.
Aside from keeping the streets of Japan’s second largest city safe, the Osaka Prefectural Police is also known to create some of the most highly effective recruitment posters, making clever use of powerful words, exciting pictures, and playful humor to stir the hearts of people.
Their long-standing tradition of making unique posters has continued to this day, with some people even looking forward to see just what their next creation will be. And as always, their exceptional enlistment advertisements never fail to disappoint.

Cool as they are, not all of the Osaka Prefectural Police’s posters are about recruitment; some are simple messages about protecting residents from crime. And what better way to illustrate the point than with anime characters?

Hats off to the capable Osaka Prefectural Police for not only keeping the city safe from elderly modern-day ninjas, but entertaining residents with interesting crime prevention messages as well. So where do we sign up?
