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 94: American Tourist KidnappingPrevious case:>>283813120
File 325: What the Lion Dropped
File 326: P & A
>>283839785damn it, he seemed like a nice guy
File 327: A Crazy Plan
>>283839846Thank you random kid
>>283839943damn they are retarded
Done. Americans...There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!
>>283839666I love Ai.
>>283839666A white lion, you say?Hmm suspicious...
>>283839885Pussy and ass?
>>283839879Is it really that easy to bite your thumb to get some blood? I always wondered but never wanted to try.
>>283840059>Plan 通り.>翻訳者注：Planは計画を意味します
>>283840247>cool guyHe is in some way related to Jodie, eh?
>>283840226That seems like a really bad idea, considering how bad the kidnapper's trigger discipline is >>283840197Stopping the car suddenly would almost certainly make him pull the trigger on accident.
>>283840487What do you mean?
>>283839757Why does he look shocked at hearing Conan's name?
>>283841541he is referencing dogfucker kimba review
>>283839808wow, Japan is such a scary country
>>283840675it is painful, much easier to peel some skin close to the nails
>>283840007such a suspicious young fellow
>>283840277thanks opI almost thought it was a case of Gosho sameface here
>>283841840His grin with the cigarette looks just like Gin's.
>>283839744Man, there's much to be written about this chapter. I'll do it tomorrow, if I find the time.
>>283839693Well fuck you too, miss depression.
>>283839744>Arr rook the same.
>>283839846Is that the trivia kid from Yotsuba&?
>>283840007Did Ai just recognize him from the bus case and was shocked? Or did Shuichi falsely trigger her BO sense?
>>283839744Enter FBI field director
>>283839965I remember being able to figure this out before the reveal, but seeing how they talk about it here I kinda feel silly for being happy about that reading it again. I guess it was also because I read Initial D back then too.
>>283840150Menace Akai
>>283840740More like her Manager
>>283840046Was Haibara making a joke there since right before Conan told them to get serious?
>>283841662Because he's a british weeb so he might have picked up on his fake name's origin
>>283840150Why was he like this?
>>283841662well it's not everyday you heard a japanese boy named Conan
>>283839871was that slide really necessary?
>>283847196Of course it was! Our Jimmy is The Cool Guy™!
I almost forgot that just like Jodie, this old guy will turned into some side jobber.
>>283840277thanks op
>>283840379Ai only love old man in young boy's body
>>283839885Pedro & Ai, the one true pairing
>>283847853All the FBI turn into side jobber Just like real life
>>283840247How is Saito more popular than the cutie Yumi?
>>283844004>but seeing how they talk about it here I kinda feel silly for being happy about that reading it again.Why?
>>283839997she also knows what conan really is
>>283849277A Shinigami
>>283847196Are the blazer and shorts necessary?
>>283850430Yes.
>>283850430it's /fa/ for a 6 years old
>>283839722>looking to met up with some man with long hair>>283839744>last name is black....is he looking for gin?
>>283840277he ain't got no long hair even in the bus hijack incident, ain't he?
>>283851263Nah, he ain't, yer right, Heiji.
>>283840265Who's Akagi?
>>283851067You were meant to think this, but it was that infamous red herring at work again.
>>283840091holy kek
>>283852296You were surprised the answer was "panda"?
>>283842078She's clearly relating to her own experiences being hunted by the Black Organization. Would be nice for her to have bodyguards.
>>283840265Moriarty here looks like the murderer pottery teacher we saw not long ago.
>>283841951So: the Boss is James Black1 Once you think about it, there’s no apparent reason for the FBI to exist in the plot. Beside some flavoring, the entirety of the plot works within Japan’s borders. The Japanese police was and still is enough to wrap the case up.-The vast majority of the BO we see are from Japan.-The scientists behind aptx are from Japan.-All the cases the BO is involved? There’s foreigners, but overall it’s about Japan.Purely by narrative, all Gosho needed was to introduce some special commissioner, or some character from the ministry of justice.Why does Gosho not only introduce the FBI, but starts dropping characters here and there? He already had subplots with Sato, Takagi and little plot drops on Megure/Heiji’s family etc. Why the FBI?Because he needs to muddy the waters. It's all a fake screen to hide the Boss identity, while also providing a reason for him to be on page from time to time. Possibly in cases where the BO is involved. Hidden in plain sight.To do that, you need at least 3-4 recurring characters, and that’s exactly what Gosho does.2 Foreshadowing – this case’s cover is a big hintPay attention to how Conan is dressed and where he’s at. 2212b Baker Street is Sherlock Holmes home, so… why isn’t Conan dressed like Holmes? Gosho draws him like that multiple times, why not now?Because this time Conan is dressed as James ~~Black~~ Moriarty.And 221b Baker Street isn’t just Sherlock’s home. It’s also where Sherlock and Moriarty have their first face-to-face confrontation in Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Final Problem.>Where’s the definitive proof?As of Volume 32, Gosho still has to add it. Of course he wouldn’t do it during the character’s introduction, but I’ll keep my eyes open onwards.
where the FUCK is OP??
>>283857063It hasn't yet been 24 hours, you want him to get arrested for posting too early?
>>283839808In the last thread someone noted it's hard to tell when characters are supposed to be speaking English since, you know.This is another case where he's saying "What" in English. Doesn't really matter, I just remember that specifically.
>>283857576Now that you mention it, I do notice it's written in bold, but during reading i just glanced over it. Maybe they should have used brackets or something.
>>283856197There's a problem with this. In one of the interviews that'd come later on, Gosho said that the boss has not appeared, but has been mentioned. This really makes the selection a very scant few, including Karasuma, ofc. Unless you'd want to argue that he lied about that.
>>283857663That's just normal American typesetting, where anything and anything can be bolded just for emphasis that it doesn't need.
Wich was the opening used in the anime while these stories were aired?
>>283858345Opening 9 and 10. Opening 10 started during the second part of the James Black case.
>>283840277Why would Japanese Cops confirm his name first to tell if he spoke Japanese? Wouldn't they just get a foreign name?
>>283840150>>283840277do you think Akai will merc those kidnappers if the Cool Guy didn't catch them?
>>283848678>traffic warden peasant vs special division master raceYumi never stood a chance
>>283857063the fishing line got him
Case 95: Sato's Omiai File 328: The Marriage Meeting
>>283842170Our hero.
>>283839989bestto
>>283840021yumi my cute tardwife
>>283840150What a psycho.
>>283862820Sato a CUTE
>>283863019Weirdest episode of 'Laugh In' I have ever seen.
File 329: Sato's Odds
File 330: Sato's Feelings
>>283863452Takagibros
Done. There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!
>>283862956pinching sato's meaty thigh
>>283863360If Takagi died from a heart attack in this moment, whose fault would it be?
>>283862820sato really is the perfect woman
>>283862888>"I don't think much of a guy who keeps a girl waiting!"Shinichi, she's calling you out.
>>283862956First time I've seen the word "besotted". Dr. Araide's going to get caught in a murder case hanging around Ran and Sonoko the shinigami. Sonoko already expects a ride, so Araide is really nice and casual.
>>283863722To think that Vermouth played along with this little game confirms her as best girl.
>>283862975Shiratori's so cheesy. Takagi fits a tomboy like Sato better.
>>283862938>"Her marriage meeting in Minatoro!"Where is Minatoro?
>>283864467I assumed that was the restaurant where they hadve their date
>>283863344Ran's got a good point, but they're pretty nosy eavesdropping on them.
Lmao with all of the spoilers for later, Araide being here is extra funny.
>>283863413Why is this guy here? He's looking for who?
>>283862975some people are into it, sato
>>283863648>>283863706Why was Sonoko so invested in Shiratori and Sato kissing? She just wants to see some drama or she thinks proactive guys deserve it more than dense guys who beat around the bush?
>>283863429It's always left to Takagi to solve the final clue on his own. It's cute.
>>283863452N T R!N T R!
>>283865040She's just excited because she's a teenage girl and kissing is exciting
>>283857906Source about the spoiler? I'd never assume Gosho lied, especially on something like that. But I'd really like to know his exact words and see if they are open to alternative interpretations.
>>283862820Takagi-kun is so lucky
>>283864344She does a little trolling
>>283863706So Sato rejected this chad to be with Takagi, they must be married by now, right?
>>283861712Traffic warden makes better housewife than a detective who lives dangerously
>>283862975>>283864939imagine her footjob
>>283863740no Jimmichi, is not similar at all thanks op
>>283861712>>283848678I mean, I love Ymi but her personality is everything a japanese man despise
>>283867015>is not similar at allWhy do you think so?
>>283865040Girls like her watch soap drama all day and want to see it IRL.
>>283863706Honestly, if I was Shiratori I'd feel so KWABd by this point that I could never pursue Sato again
>>283863706>using his voice changer right in front of someone he barely knowsI don't know who to blame, Shinichi or Vermouth for being such a good actress>>283864344Kind of a given, innit. She's a woman, she must love this kind of shit. It also deepens her relationship with Conan.
>>283863388As someone who wear these kind of glasses, your colour perception does not change much. If anything, it'll be much sharper.
>>283868104Why do you wear them? Because they're cool?
>>283862842Why can't she just marry Takagi? Is she stupid?
>>283863360not gonna lie, the cartoonishly pathetic cucked man is my least favorite stock character in japanese fictionbut why is it so popular though? why does ALL series seems to have one?
>>283863740Thank you for posting.
>>283869541It's funny.This was back when men were secure and didn't identify themselves with the cuck.
>>283869273it's platonic
>>283862820we got a year!
>>283862925>>283862888like I'm not complaining ot anything but why would a rich chad like Shiratori become a cop?
>>283869273At this point in the story they are not yet together as far as other people are concerned. Given how every man in police force is hellbent to protect Sato, Takagi has to be extremely careful with his moves.
>>283867041he and ran are childhood friends and their dynamic is very different from Sato-Takagi
>>283869541He's not "cucked" at all though. He's appreciated by his colleagues and has a crush on one of them who he thinks probably likes him back (correct). Fucking trend word
>>283863124Okay, but which of them shot Johnny Joestar?
>>283871162They actually start dating!? That's way more character development than I expected from this series
>>283866379They're expected to stop working once they marry so that's inconsequential.
>>283871154It will be explained later in series, I will just say it involves something Gosho is very fond of.The idea is also not that novel, in fiction I can remember inspector Lynley, who is an english earl and rich, and real life saw several lords in police force. DC will also later have an inspector whose family line is nobility.
>>283871211I don't remember which case, but there will be a scene where Sato blabs out that they are sleeping together.
>>283871310Even better
>>283863520didnt know ao could be used for green too
Lewdbara
>>283863740thanks OP
>>283871521google says it's cause the word covered the whole spectrum of shades between blue and green. It's still used today in name for green traffic light and seaweed, among other things.
>>283871543That just sounds like yaoi featuring burly men.
>>283868619It makes my dick bigger.I live in SEA where it's sunny all day.
>>283863306>I took the clock off the classroom wall tooliteral psycho behaviour, he must be the murderer
>>283863520naruhodo.>>283863740Thanks OP.
>>283863613>because of Womanof course
>>283863429they're playing this for drama, but the identity of the robber has basically been confirmed already, hasn't it? If the store owner was correct about the culprit's height>>283863388then the culprit has to be the teacher based on what was previously established>>283863124
>>283863613can't that guy read the room, takagi ain't got no time the usual culprit-sob-story
Reading
>>283871521I think Pokemon Red and Blue were originally Red and Green, but were mistranslated
>>283871122Why doesn't she just marry him platonically?
>>283872165The first edition in Japan was called Pocket Monsters Red and Green, but it was midori (actual word for green), not ao (blue/green). Later that year they released the special edition called "ao", with Blastoise on cover, and it was this one the west picked up.
>>283863388>>283863402That robber sure was lucky that every witness was a fucking idiot and happened to be in a situation that created misleading distinguishing features.
>>283867041If Shimmy was clueless, he wouldn't be able to acknowledge that he's clueless, for starters.
>>283872266Unreliable witnesses are actually quite common, people don't go around their lives expecting crime to happen, so they are not focused enough to pick up details. Especially when the robber is running fast through a crowd.
>>283871154>why would a rich chad like Shiratori become a cop?Why wouldn't he?If you already have all your material needs satisfied wouldn't it be natural to seek status and power next?
>>283871310the case where she lost her badge and thought she was pregnant. I think It was chapter 869-871 and episode 748-749
>>283847196As if I don't enter my bedroom like that everyday.
>>283862842Bad daughter!
>>283862956Pinching all that FAT!
>>283864861the rotten apple
>>283863158>Big, rude, but strangely popular with the ladies>strangely
>>283863177Cute
>>283869541It's fine for a guy to be the butt of a joke. And he steps up when the time calls for it.
>>283863629Ouch
>>283863672
>>283863177why is he blushing
>>283875633Considering the Valentine chocolate behind him, it's for the girls to find him extra cute.
>>283875440Oh no no no, don't let /pol/ see this
>>283874978Doesn't seem like there's much fat there.
>>283876968Considering how she takes down suspects, it wouldn't surprise me it's all muscle and her mother just has a really strong pinch.
>>283877061Gorilla women family.
>>283862820So it was 2001 when this chapter was published?
>>283877856December 2000 and January 2001.
>>283863019>public bathroom in the park>welcome to hellOf course.
>>283863249Imagine being Carlito Santos right there: >you ask for a meeting and she accepts >then she acts distant>then she gambles on a marriage proposal as if it's not important>she actually mentions another dudeA bit cruel.
Nothing says a happy marriage quite like it being predicated on an ultimatum
>>283865040She obviously relates to Shiratori more because they're both richfags, damn brat. Why don't she just hook up with Shiratori if she likes him that much?
>>283863722Araide/Conan interactions are based as fuck, once you take into account all the past cases. It's like Conan respects him, but they aren't exactly friends. Meanwhile, Araide is just a bro all the time, LOL
>>283878467His skin is not dark enough.
>>283878467>Why don't she just hook up with Shiratori if she likes him that much?Would Shiratori assault her with a knife? Would he drug her? Beat her up?I don't think so, buddy. Sonoko is into psycho and the karate autist (he fits the psycho profile because he's capable of violence and, being retarded, displays mental issues).Shiratori respects women, let them have their time, is considerate and doesn't even resent Takagi. Basically, he's the least possible attractive candidate for Sonoko
>>283863019They have public coed bathrooms? Think that would make people uncomfortable.
>>283878634>I don't think so, buddy. Sonoko is into psychoWhen did she say that? Wasn't that just coincidence that a guy she liked was a psycho?
>>283864344Witnessing drama + spending time with Ran and Conan? Sounds like a win.
>>283878784Considering the woman is seen coming out from the opposite side than the two men, it's safe to assume it's really just two bathrooms next to each other.
>>283879655i love ran and all but i don't think i'll ever get used to that stupid fucking horn
>>283878040The toilets are dirty and clogged?
>>283879655i'm so sorry but i just HAVE to do it
>>283879790But it raises up when she's happy!
>>283879655Vermouth has some nice yuri ships.
>>283880059Don't circumcise my Ran.
where the FUCK is OP?
>>283878187I would assume she was bipolar as fuck. Santos might be glad later that he dodged a bullet there
>>283880937They got to him first...
Case 96: Bloody Valentine Murder File 331: Bloody Valentine (1)
>>283884719>>283884734I love Ai.
File 332: Bloody Valentine (2)
>>283884856Why would you put a band-aid on your chocolate, that doesn't seem very appetizing, Sonoko.
>>283884916Cool guy
Who is the biggest cuck in the series?
>>283884927The band-aid can be made out of frosting.
>>283884964Still, not appetizing.She might as well put a turd made of frosting on there, too.
>>283884754Didnt Jimmy aged back after Makoto showed up?
File 333: Bloody Valentine (3)
>>283884687>Valentine's DayWe have a date!
File 334: Bloody Valentine (4)
>>283884698Why does no one ever point out how big their ears are?
Finally! A clear panty shot!
>>283884719Meh, who cares about some dead old priest? Love is what matters!
>>283885563Thank you Gosho
>>283884769That's a rough 61.
Done. Thank goodness the dogs never got poisoned by the chocolate.There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!
>>283884687
>>283884698
>>283885734How did they do the ominous zoom effect in the last panel back in 2000?
>>283885009>taking film out in the lightDoesn't that corrupt the film?
>>283884719Conan knows!
>>283884782Oh, I remember this one.
>>283885097>>283885108mystery nigga
>>283885502>Grab that kitchen knife and stab your girlfriendIn the anime they told Sonoko to "take care" of Ran in front of them but I guess Viz felt like stabbing each other was more harmless.
>>283884719Haibara doesn't look amused there. She must have read Conan's inner thoughts.
In my rewatch I've made it to the Clash of Red and Black which is around where I stopped all those years ago. I'm excited but concerned since most people say DC peaked there
>>283885534Holy ENTER
>>283884734Seems Haibara's jealous of Ran.
>>283887345
>>283885302Why's he got such a big smile there?
>>283885502You would think Conan would ask the doctor to increase his darts amount by this point.
>>283885467How did the date of the tape four years ago relate to a present? Isn't that the day her brother went missing? >>283885482Why did she still love that guy?
>>283885835Adobe Photoshop 6.0 if they were doing it digitally.
>>283887397lots of dicking should fix her
>>283885671thanks op
So the case got overly complicated because of the double dogs? Even the killer didn't plan for that part??
>>283884687Color page!And 14 feb 2001 is the date!
>>283885262>the dog plays with the ball>I've solved the case!I've no idea what the fuck happened.
>>283884946>We can't disturb the scene of the crime>puts his fingerprints all over the victim
>>283885232is this the first case where one of the suspects couldn't be any more suspicious ?
>>283885024The band-aid made out of frosting would be delicious in the mouth and for the heart.
>>283887100They keep up the same formula you're used to at that point, but in my opinion those climax arcs get less and less exciting as they go on in my opinion, which with the "Major Plot Development around every 100 chapters" structure the series has been going with for a while + the frequent anime filler/manga breaks makes me personally not as into the rest of the series at that point.It's still really impressive to me that "The good part" of the series starts at chapter 1 and ends at like chapter 600-700 though.
>>283884794>>283884804>dude has been investigating some random possibly extinct animal for 5 yearsthat's a fucking long timeis dude self-employed or something, can't imagine anyone sending someone off for that much of a time for a basically a wild goose chase
>>283889871I want to say that he usually bothered to at least wear gloves but it doesn't seem so this timeKinda weird too because people usually wear gloves going into a fucking snowstorm
>>283884972>>283884984>picking up and hiding the chocolateNow this is a clear case of destruction of crime scene
>>283885534ENTERNTER
>>283884754> ages its like two weeks at most
>>283885022No one gonna go with her to make sure she doesn't tamper with the evidence?
>>283885960When used up and rewound, the film is entirely in its protective casing, allowing it to be taken out from the camera regardless of light conditions. To corrupt it, he would have to pull on the film and drag it out.
>>283885408>dude actually wasted 5 years searching for dog
>>283885482>doggo actually deceived two people
>>283884719>My foot
>>283885000Since all Japanese kids grow up reading Conan, i wonder if "getting stuck in a remote location overnight due to bridge/tunnel/road/trail being obstructed" is their quicksand, in that they expect it to be a more common occurrence in their lives than it will be
>>283889429>Two dogs so similar the owner can barely tell them apart>Video of a dog ignoring a ball even though "he loved playing with the ball last year">The dog likes the ballI've no clue about the murderer either but I'd guess both dogs are actually alive, and maybe the hunters shot one of them. Something with the Japanese wolf I guess
>>283885563That man will never walk again
>>283885588>Immediately comments on her outfit
>>283885546what a cocky showoff, he's so lucky it was a nippon compliant rifle instead of literally any other gun
>>283885467Photographers are all psychos in the Conanverse, aren't they? Multiple times they've just been taking photos instead of helping people.
>>283898762Photographers ARE psychos. There's a reason the weird kid in american high school settings always has a camera. They all have some kind of voyeurism fetish and stalk someone. Nowadays it might be a little less so with photography becoming more main stream, but considering this is all still over 20 years ago it definitely applies.
>>283899210As a 40-year old photographer, I fully agree
>>283885534Dodging a bullet at this distance would need some kind of foresight.
My daughter is so cute
>>283885652Think about this from Ran's perspective>Shinichi comes to visit for the first time in months(?)>Doesn't wake her up, and just leaves.What a dick.
>>283899849It's a .22, not a particularly fast for a rifle bullet (and if it does it him it probably won't kill him either). Still pretty ballsy but i get why he's so confident
>>283899871Haibara better suited to be Conan's wife
>>283898362What's wrong with that?
>>283884984I don't see the chocolate being slightly melted or any indentation as stated here. >>283885388
>>283898762>Multiple times they've just been taking photos instead of helping people.When was another time?
>>283900666You just don't have detective eyes capable of seeing microscopic damage, Satan.Although if a dog carried it in his mouth while running, it would have been more than just slightly melted, that would surely leave nicely visible tooth marks, but then the trick would have been too obvious.
>>283899871Your daughter is stupid.
>>283884719>mentions a priest was executed>doesn't elaborate why they killed himTruly a (former) member of BO, only death and suffering matter, not that cheesy story about marrying young couples.
>>283901961The guy in the Shinichi flashback case on the plane, the guy took photos of a burning building even before it caught fire for his scoop I think.
>>283901961>>283902907I also remember a filler episode of someone who commited arson and then made photos of it.
>>283884838Fuck you mean "he was never found"? Does the snow not melt after the winter ends? Is this region a fucking permafrost or something?
>>283888252>How did the date of the tape four years ago relate to a present? Isn't that the day her brother went missing?Maybe she assumed it was a present for St. Valentine's day since they're dating? I thought in Japan women give gifts on Valentine's day, and then guys return the favor on White Day?
>>283887540>Why's he got such a big smile there?I think Ran was acting cold about Shinichi so he was worried >>283884754, but then he knew looking at her chocolate, it was for him, and she was trying to act tough. He knows she's a crybaby who tries to act tough.
>>283885671What a liar, asking where she got the chocolate from. He was there when she made it. He's a manipulator and playing with her emotions.
>>283885652>>283885671Did he call himself Detective Kid as an homage to Kaito Kid for stealing her sleeping face?
>>283886152Knows what?
>>283884734>"Mr. Black said he came from the city of Al Capone. What a strange comment."Is that supposed to mean he's related to the Men in Black? Al Capone was the leader of a gang that was sometimes called "The Organization".
>>2839050381 it's a nod to the case's title. Capone committed the St Valentine massacre.2 Capone was ultimately arrested by the FBI
>>283905537Strange comment to say to a Japanese kid. Are the Japanese knowledgeable of Al Capone?
>>283895100Guess you missed the>I'll help you!And how in the next panel Ran is, indeed, going with her
>>283885652Is this what started the trope of taking a picture of your love interest's face while they're sleeping? Feel like I've seen it more and more, even jokingly in a blackmailing way.
>>283906078I think it's synonymous with gangster worldwide.
