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 332: Blackmail Journalist Murder Previous case:>>289331747
File 1151: Blackmail photo
File 1152: Dangerous Photos
File 1153: The Truth in the Photo
>>289358402>Blackmail because his daughter was smokingI guess It is weed but even though is weed such a big deal for japanese?
Done. Sera's skimpy underwear...There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!
>>289358639Its a huge reputation killer there, a married guy caught with a prostitute would probably be less damaging.
>>289358732Rum is pretty fun when read in quick succession and not years between cases.
>>289358142SIEG ZEON!
>>289358639I'd assumed both alleged blackmail photos were bullshit before the case ended just because they seemed pretty minor stakes for 50 milalso because >>289358272 implied (well, outright stated) it was a single photo so it didn't add up
>>289358142What is the implication of her constantly having a cough
>>289358374I don't think people can be so sneaky. Specially since you two see dead people daily, I don't think anything phases you anymore
>>289359284dying of japanese cold probably
>>289358394I'd smash
>>289358463Cultured Takagi
>>289358272>I've still got them in MY phone thoughWhy would he tell her that
>>289358690Busujima mentioned again!The case also obviously ties to the photo of Sera and Mary. Will any of this matter in the future?
>>289358312Yay, another convoluted dieing message!I bet it's not a zero drawn in blood though, he could have just done that with the calculator. I just hope it isn't Kanji stuff.
>>289358809I've enjoyed him a lot because of that.Putting aside shit like nobody being allowed to die, and maybe the flashback, he comes off as competent and smart.And funny enough, while he's approaching the gang rapidly, he might also be the one to finally figure out what's up with APTX.
>>289358374>>289359291We've had the exact scenario already, in an even more unbelievable fashion. I can't remember exactly which case, but it was a Heiji case where some lady hid behind the door in a room full of carbon monoxide when they discovered the body and sneaked out.
>>289358732Wow, even this one advances the plot in some way. Nice, thanks OP
>>289358394Probably because the actor stank up the room with his diarrhea. I wouldn't wanna take a shower in that either.
>>289358455>Jimmychi doesn't know hotel jargonWhat a fucking retard, he doesn't know anything. Absolute disgrace to the Kudo name.
>>289358603>>289360111I can't believe I got it right
>>289359863we need a third suspect somehow
>>289358732Thanks OPI really wonder how this arc is going to turn out, considering Rum knows so much already and is for once not somehow an undercover ally. Maybe we are entering end game after all.
>>289359284I can't connect the clues yet, but there's been several cold connected things already. Aside from Mary's cough, we have Jimmychi always coughing when he returns to his teenage form and his cold when he first accidently turned older again (although that was more related to the liquor). But most importantly we had this odd piece of information that Ai's parents had developed a cold medicine before working on APTX. I'm sure there's some crazy fan theories connecting it all out there but I can't be bothered to look them up.
>>289358732Shouldn't that be Mrs Akai? How rude of Rum to imply she's an unmarried mother of two children.
>>289358439And you were boys underwear!
>>289360843Canonically false, we've seen Sera's underwear before.
>>289358312Conan should type 80081355 and pass it to Sera
>>289360051Ooh I actually remember that one, the victim there was also named Shinichi Kudo
>>289358312
>>289360571The original transformation back was also indirectly cause by him having a flu.Because it led him to drinking the rice wine that just happens to be used to treat a flu.Not only that, it didn't work again after he got better.
>>289358732Maybe it's just because Gosho only publishes like 4 cases a year nowadays so he knows he can't make them all filler anymore, but the plot actually feels like it's been moving forward at a decent pace lately.
>>289361290I don't think that his transformation had much to do with his flu, considering Ai used the same liquor to transform back in the basement during the Pisco case and she was healthy.However, the argument that that particular liquor was claimed to be used as a treatment for the flu still stands (even though that's actually a retarded misconception).
>>289358330>What?! You got tangled up in a murder?Ran, I don't understand how you can possibly still be surprised.
>>289361274
>>289358312People and their ability to come up with convoluted dying message in the last moment, man.
>>289361646Its said several times that she did have a flu during that case, even though at first it seemed like she made it up to blow off ayumi.
>>289362659Fair enough, I was talking out my ass because I couldn't remember and didn't wanna look it up again.
>>289360747Ms. is a sort of neutral expression that indicates a woman, but doesn't point out her marital status. And she has three children.
>>289342236Gin is for shiho only
>>289364615Gin is hellbent on killing Shiho. He is only ever loyal and nice to Vodka.
I can see how will next BO case going to be>Rum busted Mary as he turn into child >To cover it, Shinichi willingly give away pill for Mary to turn back to normal>Act Ai disguise as Child Mary, as previous case show that Ai's eyes look like child Mary >Because they only have intel Mary have girl, Sera look like boy would cover that part
>>289361603Next 3 cases are total filler, though.
>>289358732thanks op
>>289358439I need fanart of this
>>289358177>biker girlhey gosho, where's my (unfunny) gag?
>>289358312amuro killed him. case closed.
>>289360940kaito kid called them underwear for boys, and kid is an expert.
>>289365505He is just angry his girlfriend run away.Please understand.
>>289358732thanks op.
>>289358639Reminder>In November 2025, 19-year-old Maya Imamori was fired by production company Toei and her talent agency Seju after she was found drinking alcohol (illegal under 20). Toei and TV Asahi completely scrubbed Imamori from her show. All of her scenes and promotional clips were edited out of the series.
>>289368087Public image and influence on youth is very serious business in Japan.
>>289358590>>289358603Wait, the trick works as long as the card is used to cover the lock, so1st He should have entered the room before anyone else could open it again2nd He could only do it when no one in the room was standing in front of the door, which he had no way of knowing
>>289358177>Doesn't mistake Sera for a boyThis man is fishy.
>>289365689Do you mind saying that again but in English please?
>>289365689It would be completely retarded to put Ai at risk after they already busted their asses trying to convince BO Shiho is dead.A well-placed bullet by Akai would solve their problems, but a hero is not allowed to kill, so they will probably get Mary big again, and then her and Wakasa will use Rum as punching bag, after which Gin will show up to kill him, cause he failed.
>>289364615Gin fucks Vodka every day.
>>289365689>Act Ai disguise as Child Mary, as previous case show that Ai's eyes look like child MaryIt'll be Conan behind a mask because his mom just has a supernatural ability to do that.
>>289368779I think Gin killing Rum would have huge ramifications for the BO. I don't think he'll even considered, no matter how much of a psycho he is
>>289368866It really depends what their paranoid boss says. If codenames are hereditary, maybe there is a junior to take his place.
what did shinichi mean by this
>>289358439imagine...
>>289367772I'm pretty sure they were just boyshorts, which aren't male underwear despite the name
>>289364004I was half joking. Women used to be offended being called Ms at a certain age when it was considered improper to not have a husband (and they actually did).For Rum in this case it's weird because he should know that Akai isn't her maiden name, so calling her Ms seems just wrong. I blame Viz.
>>289367772Damn, you're right, I forgot about that. I just remember her wearing traditional striped pantsu once. I guess she picks whatever she feels like at the moment.
>>289367772In fan translation he said they were low-rise, which implies they were designed for female body, not male.
>>289371078 (me)Forgot my proof.
>>289371078>>289371093fan translation doesnt prove anything, maybe it's even more fanfiction than the official one.
>>289371078>>289371223In the translation I read, Kaito actually complemented Sera on her tuck job.
>>289371223The one above is DCTP group, pic related is Korn scans. What are the odds two different groups do the same implication and are more wrong than the company notorious for changing things willy-nilly and actually getting them wrong?
>>289371328this is just a copy and paste of the same translation and you're a fool to think otherwise.
>>289371328>>289371391I'm Japanese and the original said "Imagine the smell..."
>>289358193Conan what if you just once in your lifetime said "Oh I was looking up some trivia online for fun." rather then saying "Oh yeah Jimmyichi-niichan told me."
>>289371448There once was a time when he "watched" a lot of tv, but I guess Gosho thinks kids don't watch tv anymore.
>>289371473>>289371448He should just say "I saw it in an insta/tik tok reel once", that would be the most plausible to everyone.
>>289371413I believe you
>>289369962That he thinks of Haibara the same way he thinks of the other kids and will never see her as a women.
>>289371223>fan translations don't mean anythingThey do when the main translation started out as a "I love a good Jelly donut!" level adaption. Remind me, is Harley Heartwell from Alberta or Chicago still?
>>289367772>>289371078Even in viz's version he doesn't say it's male underwear.
>>289372666he doesnt believe that's female underwear, and if it's not for girls it's for boys. that's how it works. and kid is quite the perv so he must know.
>>289372779Unless all he's ever seen are standard panties worn by nice girls (and Aoko), and he is not really that familiar with all kinds of underwear designs out there.In DC he is also respectful enough to keep all girls clothed, Sera is the only exception cause of his mistake.
>>289372779OR Kid just isn't familiar with boyshorts.
>>289358732Thank you for posting.
>>289370952It is in fact Viz's viz-ism, there is no mention of Ms. Akai.
That's a funny game of rock-paper-scissors...
>>289358732Never forget the reason for that kiss
>>289375957Imagine Vermouth's surprise if during battle of tongues she accidentally swallowed the capsule herself (which btw shouldn't have worked that fast, implying it already started to dissolve in mouth).
>>289360051We also had it in actors serial killing case with Heiji, the culprit hid on the balcony behind an air conditioner to sneak right back into the bedroom
>>289358564you know what, yeah i believe you Sera why not, just solve this already
>>289376450That would be a bummer. If she's planning to use this method again, she should practice thoroughly. Maybe with Yukiko (while Yusaku watches from the cuck corner) or Kir
>>289375629even now the scanlation is so awkward in its wording
>>289358690>>289359891I noticed that one too. Not the first time there's some politicians who are forced to step down, too.
>>289379331The case she appears in is the Kir intro case even, in which she supposedly had tried to assassinate the politician, so if the BO did it now, she'd be the suspect.Once their assassination failed, dirty laundry came up that forced him to step down.That is such a weird character to bring back out of nowhere. Maybe the FBI got it wrong and she's actually tied to BO in some way?I had to check what case it was to verify all that and the wiki also told me another member of her hang appeared in the Red Handkerchief case, which introduced Yamamura's grandmother who just happens to live in Gunma, just like the boss does. I've joked that she's the BO boss before, but that's probably a coincidence.
Where the FUCK is OP
>>289379704Nice detective work.Speculating: one of the two old men hanzawas is Busujima's father (not head of the family anymore due to health issues, hence the breathing mask)
>>289379704ANother thing: maybe Yamamura's grandmother does know Karasuma.Yamamura's case tend to gravitate over old legends and the supernatural. And the whole APTX business could start as chasing some specific legend. After all, BO's members have visited the 100+ years old miko in one of the early case, and that legend was famous.
>>289380257>maybe Yamamura's grandmother does know Karasuma.I don't mean it in a "she's involved" way. But maybe she knows the family.
I'm still thinking about this panel. Did Shuichi's dad really steal Rum's sharingan or did he just stab his eye out or something so that he's not a threat anymore? Will we see the heroic return of daddy Akai with supernatural powers later in the manga?
>>289380366Judging by his thumb it looks like he gouged it outYou have to be a complete psychopath to be able to do that shit by the way, though this is Beika
Case 333: Mud Bath Hot Spring File 1154: A Ring and a Spring
>>289380808Sex with JugoOn a side note, I hate how you know this is going to be a Chihaya chapter now because Jugo can't appear alone anymore.
File 1155: the Whereabouts of the Ring
>>289380838Jugo should be having an anxiety attack seeing the little shinigami while he's on vacation, he's smart enough to catch on
