DETECTIVE CONAN ONLINE

Summary

Case Closed

Case Closed, known as Meitantei Conan (名探偵コナン?, lit. Great Detective Conan, officially translated as Detective Conan) in Japan, is a Japanese detective manga series written and illustrated by Gosho Aoyama. The series is serialized in Shogakukan's Weekly Shōnen Sunday since February 2, 1994, and has been collected in 73 tankōbon volumes as of September 2011. Due to legal considerations with the name Detective Conan, the English language release was renamed Case Closed.[1] The story follows the adventures of Jimmy Kudo, a prodigious young detective who was inadvertently transformed into a child after being poisoned.

Since its publication, Case Closed has spawned a substantial media franchise. The manga has been adapted into an ongoing animated television series by Yomiuri Telecasting Corporation and TMS Entertainment; the animated series has reached its twentieth season. The series has spawned three original video animation series, fifteen animated feature films, three live action dramas, one live action series, numerous video games, and many types of Case Closed-related merchandise. A two-hour television special titled Lupin the 3rd vs Detective Conan was aired on March 27, 2009, and featured a crossover with the series Lupin III.

Funimation Entertainment licensed the anime series for North American broadcast in 2003 under the name Case Closed with the characters given Americanized names. The anime premiered on Cartoon Network as part of their Adult Swim programming block and was discontinued due to low ratings. The first six films were released on Region 1 DVD in North America. Viz Media later licensed the manga series for English-language publication in North America and used Funimation's renamed title and cast. As of July 2011, 39 volumes have been published by Viz Media.

Compilation volumes of the manga have sold more than 120 million copies in Japan. In 2001, the manga was awarded 46th Shogakukan Manga Award in the shōnen category. The anime adaptation has been well received and ranked in the top twenty in Animage's polls between 1996 and 2001. In the Japanese TV anime ranking, Case Closed often ranked in the top six. Both manga and anime have had positive response from critics for its plot and cases.

Plot

Jimmy Kudo is a 17-year-old high school prodigy who frequently helps the police to solve cases. During an investigation, he is attacked by two criminals, codenamed Gin and Vodka, from the syndicate called the Black Organization. They force him to ingest an experimental poison, APTX 4869, which is supposed to kill him, and leave him to die. A rare side-effect of the poison, however, transforms Kudo's body into that of a child instead of killing him.

Adopting the pseudonym Conan Edogawa, Kudo hides his identity to investigate the Black Organization. He intends to pretend to be a child until he can find enough evidence to apprehend the syndicate, after which he can then safely find and administer a cure for his current condition. Edogawa enrolls at Teitan elementary school and forms the Junior Detective League with three other children in his class: Amy Yoshida, Mitch Tsuburaya, and George Kojima. To further cover up his activities, he moves in with his childhood friend Rachel Moore, whose father, Richard, works as a private investigator. Kudo continues to solve criminal cases as Conan, but usually poses as Richard Moore with the help of special gadgets invented by his neighbor and friend, Hiroshi Agasa.

Shiho Miyano, a member of the Black Organization and creator of APTX 4869, tries to leave the syndicate after her sister's murder, but is held captive by them. She attempts to commit suicide by ingesting APTX 4869; however, like Kudo, she is transformed into a child. She manages to escape and enrolls in Conan's school under the pseudonym, Anita Hailey. She joins the Junior Detective League and assists Conan in his investigations on the Black Organization. Conan's quest has led him to help the FBI to plant a CIA agent, Kir, inside the Black Organization as an undercover spy.

In 2007, Aoyama hinted he had the ending planned out but he has no intention of ending the series yet.

0 Detective Conan Episode 1159: The Whereabouts of the Goodbye

Episode 1159: The Whereabouts of the Goodbye

Scenario: On a Sunday morning, Yusuke Sakon can’t contact his girlfriend Aki Kano while he is on his way there, so he asks the building manager of her apartment Hayashi to help open her room after he knew that the door was closed, only to find out that Kano is dead. The police arrive after and notice that there is a coffee cup containing cyanide and Kogoro’s investigation report nearby, causing him and Conan to arrive at the scene not long after.

The police rule her death as a suicide, even though no suicide note was left behind. Yet all other evidence points to a suicide, but is this really the truth?

Kogoro confirms that 10 days ago, he was hired indirectly by a person named Yamada on behalf of Kano to do the requirement he received the next day to investigate if her boyfriend Yusuke Sakon cheated on her or not, to which pointed out a specific woman named Michiru Kuga. At first, it appears that Kano was so desperate upon knowing this that she committed suicide using the coffee cup containing cyanide, with some evidence even support this:

- The security of where she worked mentioned that she came in yesterday though the place should’ve closed while the head Chemical researcher of that place Tadashi Otsubo reported that the missing amount of cyanide was enough to kill a person.

- Last night, Kano went out to meet her best friend Hiroko Nishida for apparently a farewell

But her search on the phone feels odd as two out of three words are: stalker and manslaughter, so Conan and Kogoro decide to ask some of her accomplices:

- Firstly, Otsubo mentions that Kano was followed by a man wearing sunglasses and masks sometimes. However, the most shocking thing is that she committed suicide before the publication of her most anticipated research results, which is Monday.

- And for Nishida, she immediately asks the two about if it was because of Sakon’s infidelity that caused Kano’s death without answering if she had been told about the stalker from her friend, to which causes Kogoro to wonder about after telling his thoughts. Nishida states that this is unusual as if Kano ever catches him (or any love interest) cheating, she will try to break the affair while in reality, she committed suicide without doing anything else.

Suddenly, Conan reminds Kogoro to inform Kano’s death to the one named Yamada, only for the two to discover through a camera footage nearby that he was in fact, Sakon. So the two arrange a meet up with Megure, Chiba, Takagi, and Sakon to reveal the truth behind.
