It's still going on? o.O
As far as detective mangas go, Conan is probably the most prominent one. I still prefer Kindaichi though, and Q.E.D.
Ayatsuri Sakon was the one I was interested back then

I think I got to around volume 15. I assume it's just a weekly mystery adventure story at this point, though it was pretty much that way back then.It astounds me that it's still going. I bought volume 11 on the way to the airport when we moved out of Japan back in 1996, and it's still going 22 years later. I admit that I kinda fell out with it around the early 2000s because it started to become more expensive to get it and I was poor. Now I am not sure if I could ever get back into it again.
I missed the news..I prefer Kindaichi.
Kindaichi also goes nowhere with its main plot too. The new manga series where there is a time skip and he is a middle age man seems to be interesting though so I started reading again.
There are some poor ladies my senior at my office that are still waiting for The Glass Mask to finish.This and Bio Booster Guyver I decided a long time ago to wait until they've finished before reading (though Guyver is more because chapters are so infrequent).
Detective Conan is really good when it comes to the big cases, but there's so much downtime in between.

Only issues I have with the manga it stop having and the "And There Were None" cases.
Those cases were the absolute best and now they're very rare in the Manga. We got like, two of them in the last 500 chapter or so. It sucks.
I think Magician of the Silver Sky and Full Score of Fear are up there as well. That said, they are all worth at least one watch.Also, best movies are
- The Fourteenth Target
- Captured in Her Eyes
- The Phantom of Baker Street
How much time has passed in universe? That kid should be an adult by now.
Big fan when Detective Conan originally released in Spain, manga and anime form. Followed every episode and the dub here was freaking great (NuriaTrifol as Ran <3 and absolutely loved Kogoro and Shinichi's voices )
They changed the dub completely after some years so I didnt continue with that and then the maga was going and going and just couldnt follow it anymore.
Should have made it a much smaller tighter story.
By the time I got into Case Closed thanks to FunimationTV the dub had already ended. I loved everything I saw from it. Sadly it's one of those repetitive shows that never finish like Pokemon and as much as I enjoy them I just can't watch them without multi-tasking so subbed releases mean nothing to me. I liked it a lot though, if it were dubbed I"d have no problems.
Is the dub still going on now? If not how far did it reach?
One thing I dislike about the movies is that they feel themselves forced to include some nonsensical action scene near the end (where Conan usually has to save Ran in a burning/collapsing building).I should really catch back up sometime. I fell out of watching the anime some point in the mid 800s (so almost a year ago now, wow).
For any non-fans or lapsed fans reading the thread, I highly recommend at least catching up on the yearly movies. They're reliably enjoyable, with a few really great ones thrown in every couple years; even the not-as-great ones always avoid Conan's most major flaw (the glacial pacing). And they're for general audiences, so you don't need to be up-to-date with the series.
I find the main story bits as interesting as ever, if not even better (the hospital with Akai, the Ai train kidnapping attempt and so on).These were sooooo good, I tried catching up with the series and most of the new stuff is nowhere that good imo.
They meant how his kid form should have aged (or if it can't age, Ran and the others should).Pretty sure the main character isn't a kid but is in the form of a kid because of something which is why he hasn't aged.
Edit : oops dp

The fillers do get tiresome after a while though, that's where the DC fatigue comes from IMO.

He must have solved what, around 300 or 400 murders by now? Instead we're in Comic Book Time, where time passes but characters don't age.
95 right now.I used to binge the original anime episodes and tended to enjoy it.
I saw it on netflix last year, and holy moly it's unwatchable and certainly not the same show as the old thing I watched. Just awful.
I presume the manga is pretty darn good. How many books is it?
