Thread 283487232

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 79: Old Photograph Murder

Previous case:
>>283461498

File 276: A Deceitful Woman

File 277: A Handful of Proof

File 278: A Fearsome Woman

Done. Kogoro keeps getting stuck with more and more kids.
There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!

>>283487292
No age?

>>283487673
>She doesn't look anything like...
That facial expression does not fit what's being said. Should be something along the lines of "Not yet" but with more words.

>>283488062
Thanks OP

>>283488048
That's racist Ran...
>>283488062
Thank you OP!

>last thread barely got 100 replies
Conanbros, where is the fishing line?

>>283488048
omg rachel you can't just ask people why they're white

>>283488034
Huh I fully expected her to be the black organization woman

>>283489024
I think he wanted to make a mean joke about how she looks better than his actual wife Eri, whom he likes to mock.
>She doesn't look anything like that old hag

>>283487306
I love these corny Kogoro jokes so much
>>283488062
Thanks OP
I guess we're in for more Heiji kino next case.

>>283487826
>a fearsome woman
>mystery nigga is ran with her horn
Really makes me think
By now I feel like she's the actual wife, or maybe mistress, but is hiding it for some reason

Welp, at least I got the culprit right. Bitch showed more concern about someone trespassing than her husband's fate.
>>283488034
Boy was I wrong, but at least I knew she was hiding the mark on her ring finger
>>283488048
>basically calling him a nigger
I wonder if that's common with people from Osaka

>>283487292
milf

>>283488275
asking a lady's age is rude you know

>>283487466
>driving all the way from from Tokyo to Shizuoka
geez talk about sudden road trip

>>283488007
muh

>>283488062
wait which phone call?

>>283491842
>>mystery nigga is ran with her horn
>Really makes me think
Why'd you notice it was Ran?

>>283492973
How long of a drive is it?

>>283487637
https://youtu.be/KO6MCr0zpVI?si=T_iaYnfLyAWw_gzf

>>283487797
Finally forensics do their jobs instead of letting Conan point out everything.

>>283494203
considering Beika is around Shinjuku area according to wiki

3 hours drive

>>283487352
Bitch how the fuck you knit but you suck at cutting a knife?

>>283487765
What is with these japs and bad investigation skills?

>>283488062
Good shit op. You got me back into this anime again.

>>283487411
>Giving iced coffee to a kid
Surprised no one mentions it. Even if Japan consumes a shitload of tea you wouldn't expect a kid to drink black coffee.

>>283495913
Is that considered a long drive in Japan?

>>283487653
>he used a phone
He's the killer! I know it!

>>283488062
Thank you for posting.

>>283497065
it's conan/shinichi favorite drink after all

>>283488007
out fucking skilled

>>283488062
nice, next is a heiji case

>>283497065
It's not like their coffee is even real. Just like most countries, it's weak shit that tastes like ass.

>>283497262
in a way, yes

>>283499740
I still don't get names in Japanese.
Why is Shinichi calling Heiji by his first name and Heiji is always using "Kudo", Shinichi's last name?

>>283501513
Calling someone by first name, especially without honorifics, is usually a sign of greater intimacy (not necessarily romantic), or that a person is less concerned with proper etiquette, like teenagers usually are for their equals.
It might mean Heiji is a bit more better raised, though I imagine Kudo is also easier turned into a pun when Heiji screws up in front of Ran.

>>283501619
>Heiji is a bit more better raised

Heiji from the very start called him ''Kudo'', without honorifics. Kinda rude in japanese and osakans are usually seen as ruder than most japs

I think it's more because Shinichi is usually Conan and a child would be a bit more informal (when he talks to run he calls him Heiji-niisan for example) and ''Shinichi'' is kinda long and Heiji doesn't want to be too much of a buddy, he consider him his rival after all

>>283501840
*talks to Ran

>>283487895
>the one who seems to have the best alibi
Pretty sure that's who the murderer turns out to be every time, Conan.

>>283487447
>He was good at [sport] as a kid, I wonder if he kept doing it as an adult.
Truly a brilliant deduction.

>>283488048
Ran learned that from Kogoro

Shine

>>283501619
That why shinichi doesn't has any close male friend. He is rude and arrogant, when heiji went to visit Conan. at hospital, He seems annoyed.

>>283504032
Jumping to conclusions using weak evidence?

>>283505676
no

>>283506222
Then what did she learn from him? Racism?

>>283505332
That's rude desu

>>283506497
it will come up soon anyway unless viz censored it. In ~2 cases.

>>283506497
Karate probably.

>>283507798
Kogoro is judoka, so is Eri. Ran was already established to get interested in karate after seeing Makoto fight.

>>283487586

>>283487740
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-6MDQZ9cZc

>>283487740
The name "Reiko" is fancy and modern?

>>283508818
Google says it has long tradition, and wikipedia's list of notable people has a decent number of Reiko, with oldest born in 1915, which is of course just list of Reiko that history remembers. So Gosho probably just didn't know how else to give clue to Conan.

>>283487571
Fun fact: the girl in the photo's background is Yaiba's mother. She is the champion of that tournament.
https://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Interviews#Shonen_Sunday_Special_Booklet

>>283511186
Yaiba's mom

>>283511303
She needs the hairband she wore in middle school.

>>283511303
so is she related to Yukiko? Wouldn't surprise me.

where the FUCK is OP?

>>283513240
It's still early, don't be rude to precious OP cutie.

>>283511186
> She also had a profound relationship with Gin...
never knew that

>>283514394
He gets all the bitches, huh?

>>283511186
I didn't know that. I thought a background character looked that specific was strange tho.

Case 80: Mermaid Curse Murder

File 279: The Mermaid's Curse?

>>283487239
Conan Samurai Legend

>>283487306
Man works fast.

There's a big fucking difference between 100 and 200, lady.

File 280: Lady Mikoto's Prediction

>>283515408
brutal

File 281: The Devil's Arrow

File 282: The Last Arrow

Somehow I didn't know TMS was livestreaming the old movies on youtube and missed all of them.
Fml.

File 283: An Unrequited Heart

>>283515198
Isn't that a universal story?
You eat mermaid meat and then gain immortality.

Done. This is actually the last case I read in my previous attempt at reading Conan, so everything from now on will be new to me.
There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!

>>283515796
>The scientist researching a drug that turns people into kids? Nah, she wouldn't care about something tied to immortality.

>>283515572
Harley is so fucking rude lmao.

>>283516472
Thanks as usual, OP. These make my day

>>283515173
This is one of my favorite cases.

>>283516472
I love this case but I feel a bit sympathetic towards Kimie's friends. They didn't know they had killed someone in the first place.

>>283516456
Hey, returning characters, neat.
>>283516472
So I guess we'll just completely gloss over HOW he saved Kazuha and himself from the cliff.

Is this the only case where Heiji completely got it wrong, excluding his first appearance?

>>283516319
dun dun duuuun

>>283516472
Thx mate.

>>283515796
>She's not the type who'd care about eternal youth and beauty...
Uh... Jimmy...

>>283515393
>>283515408
Sick pages

>>283515796
>when you realized Gosho made the whole mermaid case uo just to show this single page for LORE

>>283516472
Thanks OP
Always loved this case for this panel alone>>283515408
Although, I usually hate it when the cute and nice girl that shows around the Moris turn out to be the culprit.

I feel like the cases where Heiji is involved are more complex and interesting. Anyone thinks the same?

>>283518797
Yeah, I'm glad, I like Heiji a lot, and since we have 2 great high school detectives collaborating, I would want the cases to be more complex and darker in tone.

>>283516352
>>283516379
This reveal was legit insane to me

>>283515530
>Heiji's hat detail
I had never noticed that.

>>283515914
>All childhood friends
Truly, the most cursed of the cases

>>283516427
So these old farts all knew she was the murderer. Holy shit

>>283518446
No, the whole case was important foreshadowing

>>283515408
shame, she was kinda cute

>>283515620
please stop killing the cute girls...

>>283520332
Has he flipped it forward in the past before?

>>283518446
Given this series is also about aging, it would have featured the oldest character at 130
HOWEVER
Btw I'm still trying to keep track of the oldest character appearing in the series because maybe there could be a hint towards the Boss

>>283521771
He has been seen other times with the hap flipped backwards and they were all relaxed moments, never on crime scene

>>283516101
Was Viz aware "fingered" has another meaning?

>>283516472
Thank you for posting.

>>283515323
>secluded town
>playing a lottery
Hard pass, I know how this story ends thank you.

>>283523683
What is it from? The Giver?

>>283515210
I was wondering on one of previous pages why Conan was in pain, but it seems "oww" is just their translation for yawn, even though "yawn" is its own onomatopoeia for it.

>>283515233
>woman moaning and the sound of waves
If this wasn't Detective Conan, I would say Heiji interrupted beach sex.

>>283524486
I think everything points to whoever is translating just has a script and lacks visual context.
This has been a trend where some bits just don't line up with it at all.

>>283515198
>literally just watched the first episode of mermaid saga
It's like Gosho knew, somehow, 20 years ago, that 20 years later this would happen

>>283515281
>born on my birthday too
GOSHO KNEW
I DONT KNOW HOW HE KNEW BUT HE KNEW

>>283524903
You've been eating mermaid flesh?

when people in these stories eat mermaid flesh do they only eat the fish part or do they eat the human part as well? mermaid tiddy meat, imagine

>>283525276
Mermaid meant to be immortal and can regen any part, hence they just eat any of her part, since she can just regenerate it.

>>283516211
It is? I thought mermaids were beautiful creatures of the sea, not things to be eaten.

>>283525407
Plenty of beautiful fish end up on people's plates.
But mermaids as lovely maidens is a relatively new invention, based on the fairy tale, mythological mermaids were murderous bitches and not all were pretty.

>>283525496
still would

>>283525276
I think it's any part of the mermaid
>tfw learning about Yaobikuni from internet historian of all people

>>283515281
if she really was 130 she would the oldest person to ever ever exist. IRL a french woman died at 122

>>283525741
BO boss is supposed to be over 140, and since he hasn't been seen in ages, the government proclaimed him dead by default.

>>283515796
is Renya name here?

>>283516472
thanks anon

>>283525765
No. But Gin (Kurosawa Jin) and Vodka (Saburo Uokka) are.

>>283525877
On every business trip someone always has sex, and Vodka was obviously too busy investigating.

>>283514529
Well obviously, have you seen the guy?

>>283524874
Wasn't Mermaid Saga published like 10 years before this chapter?

>>283521298
Japanese moment

>>283517077
Well yeah Kimie was absolutely mental. It's one thing to take revenge in the heat of the moment, or at least once, but she slowly and carefully murdered three of her friends

>>283527266
They were all absolutely mental, the three victims started the fire three years ago just to see if an old woman is really immortal, and after it became so obsessed with the legend they were ready to steal bones from the grave (and possibly eat them).

>>283516204
How he got out of this is still the biggest mystery of this manga

>>283528012
Kaito Kid saved them in exchange for the arrow.

>>283508818
I'm no expert but it doesn't seem like Rei was used as a part of names before the 20th century. Just a guess but it might be because it's a Chinese reading? The -ko part for female names is truly ancient, looks like it was typical for women in the Imperial court from the Heian era on and spread to the rest of society after the Meiji Restoration.

I just notice that Heiji is placed in physical danger in majority of his appearances so far. He's going to be kidnapped and confined in an attic, surrounded by a gang of bandits, and shoved overboard from a cruiser in future cases too. It's like the cases with his involvement are usually high stake, but because Conan is a a kid, Heiji takes on the action part.

>>283527348
I mean, immortality, anon.

>>283530980
Magic immortality powers sure didn't help the mermaid.

>>283524660
You're probably right, that explains things like >>283487673 as well.

>>283516472
thanks anon, picked up and will be reading from now on. The cases are interesting

>>283529926
Age plays a big role, but Heiji/Kazuha have an ongoing theme about safety and protecting.
Heiji always looks up for Conan, and Kazuha always looks up for Heiji. But since Kazuha cannot fight like Ran, her protection is mostly on a spiritual level (charms, legends, etc)

>>283532647
cont.
and that's another reason why Heiji is stuck in dangerous situations.
Btw Conan insofar has been kidnapped as well, shot, head bashed with a rock, poisoned and was dealt severe multiple head traumas from Kogoro.

>>283532705
>Conan insofar has been kidnapped
By his own parents, as part of their weird plan. In that department Heiji is luckier, since his are more parent-like and less prone to give their only child a mental scarring.

>>283535366
Yeah, Heiji's dad only smacked him and used him as bait to lure a criminal gang, no big deal

>>283521298
it was for the greater good

>>283515408
One of the most beautiful death scenes, I fapped to this

>>283537104
When are you killing your next victim?

>>283529926
Conan is a bad luck charm for his surroundings.

>>283539776
I think that much is obvious after 80 cases.

chapter?

Case 81: Girl Clubbing Murder

File 284: A Secret Enclosed

At least the cute gyaru slut isn't dead.

I need to FUCK Ran.

File 285: Something Strange

File 286: An Unexpected Motive

Done. Megure getting development? You love to see it!
There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!

>>283542914
So that's where Ran learned her racism

>>283543543
Lucky Megure

>>283543556
I never knew Megure actually has some backstory, I enjoyed this case immensely!

Megure's wife is hot lol. I wonder if he marry her right out of highschool.

Bumptective Bumpnan

Thats why Megure always wear hat

>>283543530
Meanwhile the heyday of girl delinquents in long skirts was more than 40 years ago...

>>283543249
And for whatever reason they change Matsumoto's name this case

>>283547001
it’s a callback to movie 2, a whole case just to explain a joke scene

>>283543609
it runs in the family

>>283543031
>>283543040
calm down megure, you act like the guy is gonna dress himself up as a miniskirt gyaru to lure the culprit and get himself killed. he won't
...unless?

>>283543002
>Guy was just bonking gyaru without killing them
>Conan enters
>Instantly become murder
Conan is a force of nature that make these murders happen

>>283542848
Honestly, how DOES Jimmy come across like he feels about Ran?
Like realistically, how is she supposed to interpret the signals he gives? Because it really seems like he's ghosting her on purpose.

>>283542929
I still find it kinda funny that blackface was a fashion trend in Japan.

>>283543296
This scene is unrealistic. Women would NEVER go to the toilet alone

>>283543175
What's wrong with how she's dressed?

>>283543218
>>283543230
Ran, don't be racist.

>>283548989
it was just an aesthetic rebellious teenagers put on (depending on the era) to piss off their parents the most. long skirt sukebans, blackface ganguros, and yamikawas of today, they're all basically identical in spirit

>>283543543
>>283543556
>married a sukeban
It should've been me!

>>283549275
>and yamikawas of today
What are those?

>>283548962
Well, he's extremely flakey and dismissive. Clearly manipulative by sometimes giving her just a little hint that he likes her and then disappearing again for months on end.

Realistically, it's the perfect trap for getting a 17-year (?) old girl getting completely enamoured with you.

If I was her friend I would strongly recommend forgetting him because he's clearly not that interested, and way too caught up with himself and his passion to have time for a partner

>>283548989
It really isn't the same though

>>283542929
Okay but if you understand the connecting thread is probably ganguro specifically, Sato was never gonna work.

>>283549563
the latest, current iteration of menheras, druggies basically
basically "what if we made self harm/drugs fashionable and cute?"

>>283543516
Nice that Megure got a moment to shine over Conan.
Expected it to be Makoto appearing out of nowhere to beat the guy up and call Sonoko a slut again.

>>283543352
Truth be told, big part of the blame is on the mother for leaving the little kid alone at the parking lot to play football. When something small runs out between parked cars, you don't even have to be hindered by platform shoes to react too late.

>>283543543
Damn, Megure looked pretty good when he was young. No wonder he was able to bag a sukeban.
Though considering how fat he's gotten, I wonder if she's an architect.

>>283543452
>>283543465
>>283543480
So just how many times has she been attacked? Is Serenako gonna be the designated culprit bait from now on?

>>283550031
Well, she is loud, dresses flashy, can't defend herself with martial arts, and her boyfriend is always away, so if someone needs to be attacked Sonoko has a target on her back, but as far as I recall she is still mostly just the rich friend that can get them into places.

>>283543500
>>283543516
love to see Megure getting his own little case and hero-moment. There's surprisingly little focus on him for being such a recurring character

>>283543556
Megure unironically won

>>283543556
thanks op, megure won

>>283547330
Probably because funi did it for his first case, or maybe a movie

>>283549737
Is it this?
https://j-fashion.fandom.com/wiki/Yami_Kawaii

>>283551109
yeah pretty much

>>283549616
If first chapter is anything to go by, Shinichi is gay for Sherlock Holmes.

>>283548935
its a shinigami.

>>283543261
How far did they go for this shopping trip that they need a car? Doesn't Kogoro always rent one? Can't be that far if Meguire is in the precinct.

>>283552325
It doesn't have to be far, it's a shopping trip with rich girl Sonoko, so they would need a car to put all her shopping bags in and drive her home.

Oh nice, next one is the bus hijack

My first doujin was a conan doujin, nothing but fond memories hehe

>>283554229
Which girls?

>>283487239
>>283487232 (OP)
His fits are always tuff

>>283550511
I think megure is based on jim gordon

>>283558430
He's based on inspector Maigret.

whats the best conan movie? Going through the newer ones 20 was weird with all the action and zero detective stuff. At least Genta was a bit useful.

>>283559075
The first 6, then ones like 10, 14, and 15 are good.

>>283555652
Chapter 2 of that Ran x Mori doujin, it wasn’t until years later that I found out it actually has 3 chapters

>>283559763
>Ran x Mori
Strange, the moment I read this it seems something went wrong with my mirror, cause I can only see myself as a black silhouette. And why am I holding a kitchen knife?

>>283559763
>ranxkogoro
? What's the excuse? Not wanting him to fuck random women while trying to get him back with Eri? Or is it just porn with almost no plot?

>>283561302
It’s the Conan doujin by Kino Hitoshi if you’re curious. I heard that the author and his wife were arrested and imprisoned for raping their female assistant

where the FUCK is OP?

>>283543556
late thanks op

>>283562039
next case will probably be in a new thread, no?

>>283562039
the black guy got him

>>283561739
>I heard that the author and his wife were arrested and imprisoned for raping their female assistant
What?

>>283549130
>Women would NEVER go to the toilet alone
Why not?

>>283543556
So he's embarrassed about explaining how he and his wife met so he keeps the hat on?

>>283564040
He's embarrassed about people finding out he groomed a high school student to become his wife.

>>283564339
He kept a delinquent off the streets.

>>283561739
>Bicicle guy going to prison because he cannot stop molesting
>Fujimoto eating dead fishes
>Kazuki Takahashi dying while saving someone's life
>Araki's bizarre life stories
>Inoue stops drawing because he's too perfectionist and reachingManga Nirvana
>Katsura Hoshino keeps going back and forth from the afterlife
>Togashi posts empty papers and twitter cums
Mangakas are incapable of living a normal life.

>>283561739
All I'm getting is that he's an architect.

>>283564417
By putting her in the sheets

>>283543556
Thank you for posting.

>>283548989
it was just tanning salon

>>283566947
Sad he has no kids. Maybe the side effects of the accident.

>>283549632
What's the difference?

>>283563929
Excuse to have lesbian sex

>>283564417
>>283566947
It's like Harry Pottery, it rhymes.

>>283526965
Has nice hair and is tall.

>>283494594
What's so good about a laserdisc?

Not yet.

>>283487812
What a crazy deduction

>>283487974
Couldn't she just threw it away?

>>283488007
Bullshit

>>283543556
The amount of blood she lost suggests to me she should have more than 1 scar on her forehead.

>>283580081
Her face doesn't seem to be that badly battered, even Megure was bleeding worse from the wound on his head. The worst of her injuries seemed to have been on her body, and we don't know what kind of scars she got there.

>>283543543
I just realized Matsumoto also has a scar on his face. Scars must be symbolism here for something.

>>283581518
thats for a future case

Having a nice tan looks good, like with Heiji.

>>283500155
What's so bad about it?
