I only remember the manga version of the scene well. Here is what was going on. Vermouth was told to kill Akai, because the boss feared Akai might become a silver bullet. (Gin mentioned this was her mission at some later point, forget where now.) Vermouth disguised as a long silver haired Japanese serial killer. One thing that isn't clear is whether there already was a real serial killer matching that description, or if the man was a character Vermouth made up and committed a murder spree to create. My impression is that the silver haired serial killer was someone Vermouth made up because she wanted him to look like Gin to arouse Akai's interest. It would be much more of a pain in the butt to locate a real serial killer before the police and hold a dangerous guy alive for sacrificing than it would be to make your own after finding a suitable look-alike victim who wasn't criminal by nature. Anyway, she lured Akai out while disguised hoping to get a chance to kill him, but either Akai figured out the ruse or was simply too good and shot her before she could get him. Vermouth was forced to flee and stage a suicide. Before she could stage the suicide, she encountered Shinichi in the building and then fled from him and ran into Ran...

I hated how they drew the eyes in the really early days. It felt like they were designed to freak the heck outta you xD Needless to say, the first 100 were very special episodes.

Actually when I first saw that I wanted to ask that but no one said anything about it so I didn't either lol.

Come As You Are, Negative Creep, Lithium, School, All Apologies, etc. That's just a few off the top, but there's other good songs.

those details you saw in the anime was anime original content, so it cannot be counted as a real story scene! the manga only mentioned that she was shot by him during her mission!

geezus, then what would you do for a Klondike Bar.

I just want to point out some few things: It's highly unlikely if not impossible that Ran and Shinichi met Akai and Sera in NY, Sera said that they moved to America only 3 years ago, Ran had a flashback of a very young Sera, that means they met around 10 years ago, so they had to have met in Japan, I also doubt Akai was with her, since he didn't recognize Ran and neither Ran nor Shinichi recognized him when they each saw him for the first time, I would assume the middle brother(Shuukichi) and the mother(unknown child) were with Sera instead, also, Akai's age is still unknown, 27 is the age he was using as Okiya. As for the Wizard, it's probably because of a case that young Shinichi solved or something like that, a case which was like magic.
