Situation

Part 1

Ran and Sonoko are getting ready to attend a huge concert by the very popular J-Pop band Two-Mix. Some hours before that, Conan and the Detective Boys go to a coffee parlor and meet a lady with sunglasses and a cap, who turns out to be the singer of the group, a woman named Minami Takayama whose voice is rather similar to Conan's.

At some point, however, Takayama gets outta the parlor and is confronted by two mysterious men in a car. She's then forcibly pushed into the backseat of the vehicle, where her partner Shiina Nagano is bound and gagged! The children witness this and notify Megure and Takagi, trying to help as much as they can to rescue the two artists.

    Anime

    • The names of the characters in the Funimation Dub are:
    • TWO-MIX - TWO-TIMES
    • Minami Takayama - Korma Delorica
    • Shiina Nagamo - Karman Santher
    • Satoshi Miyahara - Morshu Esterbaum
    • The Funimation Dub names the manager of TWO-TIMES, Orpheus.
    • Additionally, Funimation had "BREAK" completely re recorded with heavy modifications to the lyrics, with the voice actress for Conan/Korma doing the singing.

    Trivia

    • Conan sings Mune ga Dokidoki at the karaoke box during the beginning of episode 81. He later sings "BREAK" during the post-credit scene of episode 82.
    • The demo tape song used in this case is LIVING DAYLIGHTS, which had not been released when the manga was serialized, but was released between the airdate of the first part and the second part of the case in the anime. The demo tape song's lyrics are made exclusively for this case, as the original song have different lyrics and arrangement.
    • The song Two-Mix performs at the concert is "BREAK". The song is included as the B-side of the LIVING DAYLIGHTS single and has been dubbed in English, Galician, German and Italian in their own dubs.
    • The demo tape song has the lyrics "Running past the violent 1996" and "Running into the bright 1997". This can be explained that while the anime was aired in November 1997, the manga was serialized in January 1997.
    • The train stations passed by the Detective Boys are Kudanshita Station, Shinagawa Station, Shibuya Station, Kanda Station, Meguro Station, and Otsuka Station.
