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.

Harley then travels to meet up with Congressman Grady, their prime suspect; however, Grady himself received a call from the culprit but refuses to tell the authorities. Conan is forced by Rachel to travel with another officer to go to their motel but due to an emergency, they are driven to the site where Cornelius Graver, a dangerous fugitive and also a suspect, is thought to be hiding.

After Conan finds him, he realizes Cornelius and Grady are not the murderer. Harley confronts the serial killer: Truman Salinger, his tour guide, who intentionally dropped his victim's body on the car to throw Harley into an active murder case, which in turn, gave him access to Congressman Grady who he planned to murder next. Cornelius, while hiding for his other crimes, was found by Salinger who he mistaken for Mr. Inaba, Salinger's father who was killed by his victims in a prank gone wrong. Cornelius also confesses this to the other authorities when he is captured and was planned to be used as a scapegoat once Salinger completed his killing spree. After stopping his suicide, Harley is shot but survives.

A serial killer who strangles his victims first then stabs them through their wallet and into their chest appears in Osaka. Harley Hartwell invites Conan and the Moores for a tour in around his hometown with Truman Salinger as their guide and police escort. While on the tour they meet Kirsten Thomas who has followed them since the beginning. Later, the body of Castron Odalis is dropped onto their car, the third victim of the same offender. Susan Connoly, a terrified bystander, leaves the scene in her car and Harley manages to get her license and track her down to her residence. Conan and Harley find her apartment empty and they are drawn by a scream outside, where they and a maintenance worker find Susan has fallen prey to the same serial killer, strangled and stabbed through her wallet into her chest.

Heiji invites Conan, Ran, and Kogoro to visit him in Osaka, taking them on a sightseeing tour. In a restaurant, they run into Kazuha Toyama, Heiji's childhood friend, who appears to be jealous of Ran, asking her if she's "that Kudo girl" that Heiji keeps talking about and telling Ran to back off, because Heiji and her have been "joined by steel" for ages.

Ran laughs and explains herself and the two girls hit it off. After finishing their meal, Kazuha joins them on their exploration of the city, but, as they leave the restaurant, a dead body falls from the roof of the building, hitting Kogoro's rental car. The police arrive and quickly realise that this newest victim, a man in his forties, has been killed in the same fashion as two other people who died a few days earlier, by being stabbed in the heart through their wallets.
