It looks great!

Before you try to update profile images, I highly suggest you read this still-in-progress manual of profile images I am still putting together: http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Detective_Conan_Wiki:Manual_of_Style/Profile_pictures It's basically a guide on how to pick good profile images that won't be reverted the same day you upload them. The different looks sections are meant to be similar to previous ones - so that the faces are about the same angle and easily comparable. If you want to change the angle, I suggest you change both the old and the new images. Look at Shiho's similar looks for instance. Hakuba: Proposed #1 Great pose, face angled well, shot backed up so you can see most of his hair, looking at camera, anime art style doesn't suck. The expression could be more neutral, but it's good enough. However, it is too dark, so it won't work. #2 Hakuba is way too small in the image, it won't show up well, also the anime art style is not the cream of the crop. #3 The lighting is better than one, but Hakuba is at an odd angle and looking well away from forward. Kaito Kid: (I don't like the current Kid profile picture in the Wiki, it has problems too. If only we had something like this but anime...) Proposed #1 Odd lighting, would be nice to see more of his outfit #2 Not centered in frame, angle weird, deep shadow on face, anime art style isn't as good as the other ones #3 Not angled like the previous before and after pictures, also going to be way too small. Kuroba Kaito (Also needs to be changed) Current Proposed #1 Odd angle, too close, strange expression #2 Good lighting, good expression for his character, close up, but not too close, good lighting, looking forward, good anime art style. UPLOAD THIS ONE. #3 Weird expression that distorts his appearence Conan and Kaito Images Current Proposed #1 The primary relationship between Conan and Kaitou Kid is their rivalry. The later movies have diverged from the manga and anime canon somewhat in regards to the two of them. The best image for those two together would be something showing them squaring off/fighting/smirking at each other or anything of that nature. Sitting around and talking doesn't quite capture their usual battle of thief and detective dynamic. That said this image has a home on the movie 14 page. #2: This gag image... Well it connotes things that really don't quite reflect the rivalry between Kid and Conan that defines their relationship - if you get what I mean. I'd upload it, but stick it on the movie 14 page since it is both well known, but better suited for another purpose. If you are interested, we have a page on the relationship between Conan Edogawa and Kaito Kuroba. There is a lot of material between Conan and Kaito to write about. In the manga and anime they started out as enemies but have since evolved into rivals who exchange favors (and sometimes mess with each other) and even secrets about their past (Phantom Lady, etc). Also the movie canon has created a very different dynamic between the two; movie Conan and movie Kid are almost as close as Conan and Hattori are.

I WISH TO WISH THE WISH YOU WISH TO WISH, BUT IF YOU WISH THE WITCH WISHES, I WON`T WISH THE WISH YOU WISH TO WISH!!! I wish that my dream came true.

This topic contains conversation that has likely been completely beaten to death already, but I'll post for the heck of it. The Lost Ship in the Sky, was, in my opinion, one of the worst movies among the 14+1 movies DC has to its name. There was almost no mystery factor and the post-ending scene was less than satisfactory. I will admit that the "chase" (the part where Conan is tailed by pretty much every terrorist on that freaking ship and manages to freaking disable all of them) was a pretty decent scene, but that's about it. The Raven Chaser was pretty good, but yes, it has flaws. The mystery introduced in the movie gave quite an ominous vibe and was quite fun to strike a blow at, but revealing a possible culprit, then switching to the "real culprit" just because of some thing about defiling stars or something (can't remember it) doesn't really make me happy. I also, like most people, actually wanted to see more BO influence throughout the movie BESIDES the two appearances of Gin (once at a house and once at that almost unforgettable helicopter scene, after all, more Gin makes better movie) because with just a few appearances, it didn't feel really like it should be sold around that little "battle with the Black Organization" feel. But, overall, The Raven Chaser pretty much blows the Lost Ship in the Sky out of the water (or the sky, should I say? ) for so many reasons. That is my opinion.
