Haruka Sanada (KochiKame: Tokyo Beat Cops)

Haruka Sanada (真田　遥) is a secondary antagonist in the comedy anime Kochira Katsushika-ku Kameari Kōen Mae Hashutsujo (こちら葛飾区亀有公園前派出所), aka. "KochiKame: Tokyo Beat Cops". She specifically appears in the 2002 13th special episode "Ryotsu vs. the Ninja Army! The Golden Legend of Edo Castle" (両津VS忍者軍団! 裏江戸城黄金伝説), as well as the 2003 297th episode "Graduate, Kunoichi! Become a Ninja" (檸檬 くノー忍者になる).
==Appearance==
For Haruka's debut appearance in SP13, she was disguised in a pink tank top and jean shorts. She emerges later in the episode wearing a red ninja costume.
==Overview==
Haruka is the head of a ninja army descended from Yukimura Sanada. While she is in disguise, she uses a pretentious tone of voice and shakes her chest in a flirtatious manner. When she is angered, however, her tone becomes wild and crazed. Her greed and calculating nature is apparent to Ryotsu, who quickly becomes appauled by her personality. She, on the other hand, views him as her rival, due to their similarities. 
Haruka's physical ability is quite high. She is so skilled with a Japanese-style sword that she can slice up anything around her in an instant, or easily cut a thick pillar in two. Her specialty is the art of alter ego, which allows her to create five dopplegangers, as well as releasing phony 10,000 yen bills everywhere to distract her enemy.
==Story==
===Special Episode 13===
Haruka appears in front of Ryotsu and his friends, who are on a treasure hunt after fortuitously finding a treasure map. She introduces herself as "Benten Haruka," the only daughter of the original Benten Shrine where one of the treasures is hidden, and accompanies them.
Later on, a glimpse of her true self is shown for the first time when Maria, who had been pursuing her, arrives on the scene after Ryotsu defeats her minions one by one at Edo Castle. Ebichan Ebisu also reveals that the original Benten Shrine does indeed have a child, but it is a son, not a daughter. However, by this point it is already too late.
Haruka reveals her true identity and demands that the treasure be handed over to her. She is caught off guard, however, when Ryotsu throws the treasure chest at her face, to comedic effect. Now enraged, she chases Ryotsu and the others around the castle, slicing everything around her to pieces. When she finally catches up with them, she is knocked out by a pillar which falls due to her reckless violence.
===Episode 297===
Having escaped from prison, Haruka opens a successful ninja theme park where, with her crew, she challenges Ryotsu and company to a showdown. After being beaten, Haruka's gang attempts to escape by attaching themselves to a kite, but Ryotsu manages to hit them with flaming arrows and they crash into the ground. Haruka and her allies are then arrested.
