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 1071: Yusaku Kudo's Detective Show (Part 1)

Episode 1071: Yusaku Kudo's Detective Show (Part 1)

Scenario: Yusaku emerges from the Metropolitan Police Department and is approached by a TV reporter. The reporter's purpose was to report on the exoneration of the Phantom Thief Kid from a certain case, so he asked if his visit to the Metropolitan Police Department was to confirm the exoneration. However, Yusaku came to the Metropolitan Police Department to give advice on another case. During the past month, there had been three cases of what appeared to be serial locked-room murders. However, all three victims were completely unconnected, and the methods of murder were different. So, Yusaku was asked for his opinion, "Is it the same crime?".

Yusaku, who does not know who the culprit is but has solved the mystery of the locked room, will appear in an episode of "Emergency Live Broadcast! Serial Locked Room Murder Case Completely Unraveled! on Toto TV on the weekend. He declares that he will demonstrate his reasoning, and he leaves a message for the reporter's question, "A word to the Phantom Thief Kid."

On the day of the live broadcast, Yusaku gets food poisoning from something he ate at an Italian restaurant last night and falls asleep. Conan is summoned by Yukiko, who disguises herself as Yusaku, and uses a voice-over machine to voice her and present his theory.

After exiting the police headquarter and being interviewed by reporters, Yusaku Kudo reveals that he is going to do a live broadcast solving three locked room murders that took place on the last days, but 3 days later, on the day of the show, Yukiko Kudo tells Conan that Yusaku suddenly got food poisoning and has a stomachache, and that she will disguise as him, and with Conan's help, solve the case. Yukiko reveals details of the murders. The first victim named Atsumi Morita, an apparel company employee, was killed in the bathroom of her apartment after being pushed to the sink and hitting her head with it 20 days ago, the bathroom door was locked and the scene was ransacked, with various bathroom items on the floor. The one who found the body is Saiko Yumekawa, Atsumi's friend, who is known for conducting interviews using a pink mic. She is also the reporter coming for the live broadcast.

The second murder took place 10 days after the first murder. The victim, Taiji Kiryu, a permanent-part time worker, was stunned with a stun gun and later strangled with a rope in the entrance of his apartment. The scene was also a mess with garbage, bags and used ramen cups. It seems he fought back while being strangled and the culprit's skin got in his fingernails.

The third and last murder was done the next day after the second murder. This time, the victim Koretsugu Kanzawa, a baker, was stabbed on the abdomen with a knife in the kitchen of a house in Haido. Like the previous murders, the scene was also a mess with multiple kitchen objects on the floor, including the knife used as weapon.

Yusaku deduced that the three murders were locked rooms and that they were locked from inside. When Conan goes to Yukiko's room, it turns out Yukiko also feels bad and it's revealed that she got food poisoning too. But suddenly, Kaitou Kid (disguised as Yusaku) appears to "repay the favor" that Yusaku did by clearing accusations made against him. Conan and Kid only have 10 minutes until the TV staff arrives to the Kudo household.
