* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Sleepy. In episode 4 of the anime we find out that he turned in his old partner and best friend despite his sympathetic criminal motivations, which results in him quitting the force and ending up killed by the local mob. The justification he gives for this is that he has to uphold the law no matter what and can't make a concession that would be illegal. This is all well and good... except for the fact that Sleepy is a CowboyCop of the highest order who doesn't think twice about blowing away any criminals he encounters with deadly force or using his prostitution money to help fund counseling centers for victims of crime. In other words, he comes off as a complete hypocrite who gets several of his comrades killed despite being perfectly willing to bend the law himself. This is the guy the viewers are supposed to be rooting for?
** The Capricorn Killer herself counts as well. She's supposed to be a tragic individual who lost everything when Sleepy turned in her brother and decided to lash out in revenge. The problem is she goes after several innocent cops who were just doing their jobs rather than the guy who caused her suffering to begin with. When she does finally confront Sleepy she can't bring herself to kill him and instead just has sex with him before running off to murder the mobsters who actually carried out her brother's execution. While her backstory is certainly sad its very hard to truly sympathize with someone who so nonchalantly murdered potentially dozens of cops while turning a blind eye to the people who were really at fault for her misery.

* CrazyAwesome: The whole damn thing; one could almost fill an entire page with examples of this trope from ''Mad Bull 34'', mostly revolving around Sleepy's crazy feats and habits.
