I'll be storytiming the manga, one complete case per day. Most cases are around 3-6 chapters long. Feel free to drop in at any time, since it's mostly episodic.Case 79: Old Photograph Murder Previous case:>>283461498
File 276: A Deceitful Woman
File 277: A Handful of Proof
File 278: A Fearsome Woman
Done. Kogoro keeps getting stuck with more and more kids.There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!
>>283487292No age?
>>283487673>She doesn't look anything like...That facial expression does not fit what's being said. Should be something along the lines of "Not yet" but with more words.
>>283488062Thanks OP
>>283488048That's racist Ran...>>283488062Thank you OP!
>last thread barely got 100 repliesConanbros, where is the fishing line?
>>283488048omg rachel you can't just ask people why they're white
>>283488034Huh I fully expected her to be the black organization woman
>>283489024I think he wanted to make a mean joke about how she looks better than his actual wife Eri, whom he likes to mock.>She doesn't look anything like that old hag
>>283487306I love these corny Kogoro jokes so much>>283488062Thanks OPI guess we're in for more Heiji kino next case.
>>283487982
>>283487826>a fearsome woman>mystery nigga is ran with her hornReally makes me thinkBy now I feel like she's the actual wife, or maybe mistress, but is hiding it for some reason
Welp, at least I got the culprit right. Bitch showed more concern about someone trespassing than her husband's fate.>>283488034Boy was I wrong, but at least I knew she was hiding the mark on her ring finger>>283488048>basically calling him a niggerI wonder if that's common with people from Osaka
>>283487292milf>>283488275asking a lady's age is rude you know
>>283487466>driving all the way from from Tokyo to Shizuokageez talk about sudden road trip
>>283488007muh
>>283488062wait which phone call?
>>283491842>>mystery nigga is ran with her horn>Really makes me thinkWhy'd you notice it was Ran?
>>283492973How long of a drive is it?
>>283487637https://youtu.be/KO6MCr0zpVI?si=T_iaYnfLyAWw_gzf
>>283487797Finally forensics do their jobs instead of letting Conan point out everything.
>>283494203considering Beika is around Shinjuku area according to wiki3 hours drive
>>283487352Bitch how the fuck you knit but you suck at cutting a knife?
>>283487765What is with these japs and bad investigation skills?
>>283488062Good shit op. You got me back into this anime again.
>>283487411>Giving iced coffee to a kidSurprised no one mentions it. Even if Japan consumes a shitload of tea you wouldn't expect a kid to drink black coffee.
>>283495913Is that considered a long drive in Japan?
>>283487653>he used a phoneHe's the killer! I know it!
>>283488062Thank you for posting.
>>283497065it's conan/shinichi favorite drink after all
>>283488007out fucking skilled
>>283488062nice, next is a heiji case
>>283497065It's not like their coffee is even real. Just like most countries, it's weak shit that tastes like ass.
>>283497262in a way, yes
>>283499740I still don't get names in Japanese.Why is Shinichi calling Heiji by his first name and Heiji is always using "Kudo", Shinichi's last name?
>>283501513Calling someone by first name, especially without honorifics, is usually a sign of greater intimacy (not necessarily romantic), or that a person is less concerned with proper etiquette, like teenagers usually are for their equals.It might mean Heiji is a bit more better raised, though I imagine Kudo is also easier turned into a pun when Heiji screws up in front of Ran.
>>283501619>Heiji is a bit more better raisedHeiji from the very start called him ''Kudo'', without honorifics. Kinda rude in japanese and osakans are usually seen as ruder than most japsI think it's more because Shinichi is usually Conan and a child would be a bit more informal (when he talks to run he calls him Heiji-niisan for example) and ''Shinichi'' is kinda long and Heiji doesn't want to be too much of a buddy, he consider him his rival after all
>>283501840*talks to Ran
>>283487895>the one who seems to have the best alibiPretty sure that's who the murderer turns out to be every time, Conan.
>>283487447>He was good at [sport] as a kid, I wonder if he kept doing it as an adult.Truly a brilliant deduction.
>>283488048Ran learned that from Kogoro
Shine
>>283501619That why shinichi doesn't has any close male friend. He is rude and arrogant, when heiji went to visit Conan. at hospital, He seems annoyed.
>>283504032Jumping to conclusions using weak evidence?
>>283505676no
>>283506222Then what did she learn from him? Racism?
>>283505332That's rude desu
>>283506497it will come up soon anyway unless viz censored it. In ~2 cases.
>>283506497Karate probably.
>>283507798Kogoro is judoka, so is Eri. Ran was already established to get interested in karate after seeing Makoto fight.
>>283487586https://youtu.be/GBsJ6rLCT2s?si=1s3mGZuuPM-51Hvk
>>283487740https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-6MDQZ9cZc
>>283487740The name "Reiko" is fancy and modern?
>>283508818Google says it has long tradition, and wikipedia's list of notable people has a decent number of Reiko, with oldest born in 1915, which is of course just list of Reiko that history remembers. So Gosho probably just didn't know how else to give clue to Conan.
>>283487571Fun fact: the girl in the photo's background is Yaiba's mother. She is the champion of that tournament.https://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Interviews#Shonen_Sunday_Special_Booklet
>>283511186Yaiba's mom
>>283511303She needs the hairband she wore in middle school.
>>283511303so is she related to Yukiko? Wouldn't surprise me.
where the FUCK is OP?
>>283513240It's still early, don't be rude to precious OP cutie.
>>283511186> She also had a profound relationship with Gin...never knew that
>>283514394He gets all the bitches, huh?
>>283511186I didn't know that. I thought a background character looked that specific was strange tho.
Case 80: Mermaid Curse Murder File 279: The Mermaid's Curse?
>>283487239Conan Samurai Legend
>>283487306Man works fast.
There's a big fucking difference between 100 and 200, lady.
File 280: Lady Mikoto's Prediction
>>283515408brutal
File 281: The Devil's Arrow
File 282: The Last Arrow
Somehow I didn't know TMS was livestreaming the old movies on youtube and missed all of them.Fml.
File 283: An Unrequited Heart
>>283515198Isn't that a universal story?You eat mermaid meat and then gain immortality.
Done. This is actually the last case I read in my previous attempt at reading Conan, so everything from now on will be new to me. There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!
>>283515796>The scientist researching a drug that turns people into kids? Nah, she wouldn't care about something tied to immortality.
>>283515572Harley is so fucking rude lmao.
>>283516472Thanks as usual, OP. These make my day
>>283515173This is one of my favorite cases.
>>283516472I love this case but I feel a bit sympathetic towards Kimie's friends. They didn't know they had killed someone in the first place.
>>283516456Hey, returning characters, neat.>>283516472So I guess we'll just completely gloss over HOW he saved Kazuha and himself from the cliff.
Is this the only case where Heiji completely got it wrong, excluding his first appearance?
>>283516319dun dun duuuun
>>283516472Thx mate.
>>283515796>She's not the type who'd care about eternal youth and beauty...Uh... Jimmy...
>>283515393>>283515408Sick pages
>>283515796>when you realized Gosho made the whole mermaid case uo just to show this single page for LORE
>>283516472Thanks OPAlways loved this case for this panel alone>>283515408Although, I usually hate it when the cute and nice girl that shows around the Moris turn out to be the culprit.
I feel like the cases where Heiji is involved are more complex and interesting. Anyone thinks the same?
>>283518797Yeah, I'm glad, I like Heiji a lot, and since we have 2 great high school detectives collaborating, I would want the cases to be more complex and darker in tone.
>>283516352>>283516379This reveal was legit insane to me
>>283515530>Heiji's hat detailI had never noticed that.
>>283515914>All childhood friendsTruly, the most cursed of the cases
>>283516427So these old farts all knew she was the murderer. Holy shit
>>283518446No, the whole case was important foreshadowing
>>283515408shame, she was kinda cute
>>283515620please stop killing the cute girls...
>>283520332Has he flipped it forward in the past before?
>>283518446Given this series is also about aging, it would have featured the oldest character at 130HOWEVERBtw I'm still trying to keep track of the oldest character appearing in the series because maybe there could be a hint towards the Boss
>>283521771He has been seen other times with the hap flipped backwards and they were all relaxed moments, never on crime scene
>>283516101Was Viz aware "fingered" has another meaning?
>>283516472Thank you for posting.
>>283515323>secluded town>playing a lotteryHard pass, I know how this story ends thank you.
>>283523683What is it from? The Giver?
>>283515210I was wondering on one of previous pages why Conan was in pain, but it seems "oww" is just their translation for yawn, even though "yawn" is its own onomatopoeia for it.
>>283515233>woman moaning and the sound of wavesIf this wasn't Detective Conan, I would say Heiji interrupted beach sex.
>>283524486I think everything points to whoever is translating just has a script and lacks visual context.This has been a trend where some bits just don't line up with it at all.
>>283515198>literally just watched the first episode of mermaid sagaIt's like Gosho knew, somehow, 20 years ago, that 20 years later this would happen
>>283515281>born on my birthday tooGOSHO KNEWI DONT KNOW HOW HE KNEW BUT HE KNEW
>>283524903You've been eating mermaid flesh?
when people in these stories eat mermaid flesh do they only eat the fish part or do they eat the human part as well? mermaid tiddy meat, imagine
>>283525276Mermaid meant to be immortal and can regen any part, hence they just eat any of her part, since she can just regenerate it.
>>283516211It is? I thought mermaids were beautiful creatures of the sea, not things to be eaten.
>>283525407Plenty of beautiful fish end up on people's plates.But mermaids as lovely maidens is a relatively new invention, based on the fairy tale, mythological mermaids were murderous bitches and not all were pretty.
>>283525496still would
>>283525276I think it's any part of the mermaid>tfw learning about Yaobikuni from internet historian of all people
>>283515281if she really was 130 she would the oldest person to ever ever exist. IRL a french woman died at 122
>>283525741BO boss is supposed to be over 140, and since he hasn't been seen in ages, the government proclaimed him dead by default.
>>283515796is Renya name here?
>>283516472thanks anon
>>283525765No. But Gin (Kurosawa Jin) and Vodka (Saburo Uokka) are.
>>283525877On every business trip someone always has sex, and Vodka was obviously too busy investigating.
>>283514529Well obviously, have you seen the guy?
>>283524874Wasn't Mermaid Saga published like 10 years before this chapter?
>>283521298Japanese moment
>>283517077Well yeah Kimie was absolutely mental. It's one thing to take revenge in the heat of the moment, or at least once, but she slowly and carefully murdered three of her friends
>>283527266They were all absolutely mental, the three victims started the fire three years ago just to see if an old woman is really immortal, and after it became so obsessed with the legend they were ready to steal bones from the grave (and possibly eat them).
>>283516204How he got out of this is still the biggest mystery of this manga
>>283528012Kaito Kid saved them in exchange for the arrow.
>>283508818I'm no expert but it doesn't seem like Rei was used as a part of names before the 20th century. Just a guess but it might be because it's a Chinese reading? The -ko part for female names is truly ancient, looks like it was typical for women in the Imperial court from the Heian era on and spread to the rest of society after the Meiji Restoration.
I just notice that Heiji is placed in physical danger in majority of his appearances so far. He's going to be kidnapped and confined in an attic, surrounded by a gang of bandits, and shoved overboard from a cruiser in future cases too. It's like the cases with his involvement are usually high stake, but because Conan is a a kid, Heiji takes on the action part.
>>283527348I mean, immortality, anon.
>>283530980Magic immortality powers sure didn't help the mermaid.
>>283524660You're probably right, that explains things like >>283487673 as well.
>>283516472thanks anon, picked up and will be reading from now on. The cases are interesting
>>283529926Age plays a big role, but Heiji/Kazuha have an ongoing theme about safety and protecting.Heiji always looks up for Conan, and Kazuha always looks up for Heiji. But since Kazuha cannot fight like Ran, her protection is mostly on a spiritual level (charms, legends, etc)
>>283532647cont.and that's another reason why Heiji is stuck in dangerous situations.Btw Conan insofar has been kidnapped as well, shot, head bashed with a rock, poisoned and was dealt severe multiple head traumas from Kogoro.
>>283532705>Conan insofar has been kidnappedBy his own parents, as part of their weird plan. In that department Heiji is luckier, since his are more parent-like and less prone to give their only child a mental scarring.
>>283535366Yeah, Heiji's dad only smacked him and used him as bait to lure a criminal gang, no big deal
>>283521298it was for the greater good
>>283515408One of the most beautiful death scenes, I fapped to this
>>283537104When are you killing your next victim?
>>283529926Conan is a bad luck charm for his surroundings.
>>283539776I think that much is obvious after 80 cases.
chapter?
Case 81: Girl Clubbing Murder File 284: A Secret Enclosed
At least the cute gyaru slut isn't dead.
I need to FUCK Ran.
File 285: Something Strange
File 286: An Unexpected Motive
Done. Megure getting development? You love to see it!There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!
>>283542914So that's where Ran learned her racism
>>283543543Lucky Megure
>>283543556I never knew Megure actually has some backstory, I enjoyed this case immensely!
Megure's wife is hot lol. I wonder if he marry her right out of highschool.
Bumptective Bumpnan
Thats why Megure always wear hat
>>283543530Meanwhile the heyday of girl delinquents in long skirts was more than 40 years ago...
>>283543249And for whatever reason they change Matsumoto's name this case
>>283547001it’s a callback to movie 2, a whole case just to explain a joke scene
>>283543609it runs in the family
>>283543031>>283543040calm down megure, you act like the guy is gonna dress himself up as a miniskirt gyaru to lure the culprit and get himself killed. he won't ...unless?
>>283543002>Guy was just bonking gyaru without killing them>Conan enters>Instantly become murderConan is a force of nature that make these murders happen
>>283542848Honestly, how DOES Jimmy come across like he feels about Ran?Like realistically, how is she supposed to interpret the signals he gives? Because it really seems like he's ghosting her on purpose.
>>283542929I still find it kinda funny that blackface was a fashion trend in Japan.
>>283543296This scene is unrealistic. Women would NEVER go to the toilet alone
>>283543175What's wrong with how she's dressed?
>>283543218>>283543230Ran, don't be racist.
>>283548989it was just an aesthetic rebellious teenagers put on (depending on the era) to piss off their parents the most. long skirt sukebans, blackface ganguros, and yamikawas of today, they're all basically identical in spirit
>>283543543>>283543556>married a sukebanIt should've been me!
>>283549275>and yamikawas of todayWhat are those?
>>283548962Well, he's extremely flakey and dismissive. Clearly manipulative by sometimes giving her just a little hint that he likes her and then disappearing again for months on end.Realistically, it's the perfect trap for getting a 17-year (?) old girl getting completely enamoured with you.If I was her friend I would strongly recommend forgetting him because he's clearly not that interested, and way too caught up with himself and his passion to have time for a partner
>>283548989It really isn't the same though
>>283542929Okay but if you understand the connecting thread is probably ganguro specifically, Sato was never gonna work.
>>283549563the latest, current iteration of menheras, druggies basicallybasically "what if we made self harm/drugs fashionable and cute?"
>>283543516Nice that Megure got a moment to shine over Conan.Expected it to be Makoto appearing out of nowhere to beat the guy up and call Sonoko a slut again.
>>283543352Truth be told, big part of the blame is on the mother for leaving the little kid alone at the parking lot to play football. When something small runs out between parked cars, you don't even have to be hindered by platform shoes to react too late.
>>283543543Damn, Megure looked pretty good when he was young. No wonder he was able to bag a sukeban.Though considering how fat he's gotten, I wonder if she's an architect.
>>283543452>>283543465>>283543480So just how many times has she been attacked? Is Serenako gonna be the designated culprit bait from now on?
>>283550031Well, she is loud, dresses flashy, can't defend herself with martial arts, and her boyfriend is always away, so if someone needs to be attacked Sonoko has a target on her back, but as far as I recall she is still mostly just the rich friend that can get them into places.
>>283543500>>283543516love to see Megure getting his own little case and hero-moment. There's surprisingly little focus on him for being such a recurring character
>>283543556Megure unironically won
>>283543556thanks op, megure won
>>283547330Probably because funi did it for his first case, or maybe a movie
>>283549737Is it this?https://j-fashion.fandom.com/wiki/Yami_Kawaii
>>283551109yeah pretty much
>>283549616If first chapter is anything to go by, Shinichi is gay for Sherlock Holmes.
>>283548935its a shinigami.
>>283543261How far did they go for this shopping trip that they need a car? Doesn't Kogoro always rent one? Can't be that far if Meguire is in the precinct.
>>283552325It doesn't have to be far, it's a shopping trip with rich girl Sonoko, so they would need a car to put all her shopping bags in and drive her home.
Oh nice, next one is the bus hijack
My first doujin was a conan doujin, nothing but fond memories hehe
>>283554229Which girls?
>>283487239>>283487232His fits are always tuff
>>283550511I think megure is based on jim gordon
>>283558430He's based on inspector Maigret.
whats the best conan movie? Going through the newer ones 20 was weird with all the action and zero detective stuff. At least Genta was a bit useful.
>>283559075The first 6, then ones like 10, 14, and 15 are good.
>>283555652Chapter 2 of that Ran x Mori doujin, it wasn’t until years later that I found out it actually has 3 chapters
>>283559763>Ran x MoriStrange, the moment I read this it seems something went wrong with my mirror, cause I can only see myself as a black silhouette. And why am I holding a kitchen knife?
