I’m going to spazz a lot about Detective Conan, because the hiatus is taking toooo looooong, i can’t keep still. (Anyway, Gosho-Sensei, please get better, we need you to finish what you started so loooong ago. 😭)
Anyone can mute me if my tweets are ruining ur tl. I’m just trying to feed my deduction spirit and my addiction heart. I’ve been in this fandom for 18yrs and never regret it.
It started from my first year at junior high, my friend lend me her 2 Conan Manga vol.6-7. I forgot why but i started to read from vol.6 instead of vol.1 😅 i just focused on the case, but not really payed attention to the main story of why Conan was Conan at that time.
And so i fell in love with the ‘Moonlight Sonata’ murder case in vol.7. I think that case also a turning point for Shinichi (at Conan form) to become a more mature detective. He learned a lot after he lost his culprit to a suicidal. This case is my favorite until now!
And after that ‘first love experience’ with this manga, i started to have interest at detective stories, whether it’s a movie or novel. I started to collect Sherlock Holmes and Agatha Christie’s novels, well and of course having my own Detective Conan collection.
Well, within these past 20+ yrs working on Conan, Gosho-Sensei did some changes in his drawing style compare to the first 10 volumes. The most iconic character change is Ran and her pointing hair that becoming her trademark!😌 (pic:ctto)
Gosho-Sensei has made 90+ volumes (=1000+ chapters=around 200+ cases) of Detective Conan. I still find him awesome. But tbh his cases become more repetitive with the crime motives and also i find some new cases has lost its charm.
I think the first 50 volumes are the best. But Conan isn’t just about a stories about whodunnit. There’s this main story that keep the fandom alive until now. And that’s the Black Organization story, the main reason behind Shinichi’s body shrink. The main reason why i wait.
The latest arc from chapter 1008 almost confirm that the code name (acasa) Rum is an anagram for Carasuma (Karasuma Renya), a multi-millionaire old man from earlier chapter, who rumoured to be deceased, but perhaps just shrink and become younger.
(SPOILER Alert!) He might be the ‘Anokata’ that we’re all looking for. And he might be someone we knew all along, who knows?! And there’s this one fan from tumblr who did this and once again shookt the whole fandom with a deduction picture. This looks real!!!
Seriously Sensei, let’s just end this series soon before you adding another characters and end up forgetting them later on. 😅
I’m planning to share all my favorite cases from the manga, but it really needs a lot of commitment and i can get bored or distracted pretty easy, so.. let me just make a list for the BO members with Liquors name..
