Strikeman (ストライク男 Sutoraiku Otoko) is one of the recurring characters in the You're Under Arrest (TV) anime.
A costumed vigilante who calls himself a superhero, Strikeman uses baseballs and related items to punish offenders who brake the law no matter how minor, such as public drunks, flashers, and parking violators. He has come to the attention of Bokuto Precinct on several occasions, earning notoriety as a major nuisance and complete loon. He seems to have a fixation on Natsumi, considering her both his nemesis and sidekick while referring to her as "Home-Run Woman." Throughout the rest of the anime, nobody knows Strikeman's true identity. At one time during the 1st season, Nakajima was suspected to be behind the mask due to similar appearance, but later proved false.
Many attempts were placed to apprehend him, but Strikeman escapes due to the various fastball pitches that he uses as weapons. When he tries to enact "proper justice" on the offender's property such as their cars, Strikeman uses baseballs with sharp spikes on them and in fact, has used them against Miyuki and Saori as a means of distraction. He uses a Harley-Davidson Softail motorbike, designated FLSTF. He had recently returned after months of self-exile into the mountains to defeat Natsumi in another game of baseball.
Much like many of the other characters, Strikeman had an American counterpart in You're Under Arrest: No Mercy!.
