    My problem with Ran, is the same problem I have with the majority of the cast of DC... They are cookie-cutout characters that we have seen a million times before. Now that wouldn't be bad if they developed some and improved changed and were dynamic, but they aren't. They are the same characters that were there in the first episode/file. The only characters that seem to be dynamic at all are the side characters. Now I don't mean side characters that barely show up (I would love to see Gosho give them some love and development) I mean the regularly occurring characters. Megure is the only one I sort of understand, and even he had some light shown on his past development, he is just locked into his current state and nothing has happened to him to change him in any way. Going through the characters... Ran has won competitions, lost her BF and almost never sees or hears from him, seen countless bodies, thought to have seen and been proven wrong about ghosts, nearly been killed SEVERAL times... THESE ARE ALL LIFE CHANGING EVENTS! And not one has affected her in the slightest. She is the same person she was all the way back in the beginning. Shinichi was also nearly killed SEVERAL times (and was even shot due to his OWN carelessness), was shrunk in one of those aforementioned close calls, seen his GF in ways he probably never imagined he would see her, had to break the law in quite creative ways in order to maintain his ability to be a detective, and has had life experiences that most people can only dream of being the son of a wealthy author and actress. Sonoko is the same as Ran without the superstition and karate (though her BF seems to communicate more). You know I could go on, but I'll stop there... I mean really... I don't hate them because of any character affiliation I have, but because they have NEVER CHANGED! That is NOT good character writing. Gosho seems really adept at writing mysteries, but can't write characters to save his life. Characters that don't develop and are not dynamic get really boring REALLY fast. I started hating the main cast of DC pretty quickly (within 100 episodes, because I have seen series that were 1/10th of that that developed characters AMAZINGLY and there is no excuse for no development within 100 eps let alone over 600). But yeah... that is why I hate them. And is why I have nearly dropped this series a dozen times. If it wasn't for the mysteries and the great community, I'd have dropped it long ago. And for the record, my enjoyment of Ai, and my supporting of ShinShi have nothing to do with my hatred of Ran or the rest of the main cast. I personally find it sad that characters we don't see or are exposed to as often (Satou, Takagi, Shiratori, Kobayashi, Ai, and even Mitsu) have developed their characters further than the titular and main characters have in a fraction of the time. It is really inexcusable and Gosho needs to correct this. Hell, doing so might even improve the love story that ShinRan's seem to love so much, because development like that would lead to CONFLICT more than the usual "OMG CONAN IS SHINICHI" case that could in theory BRING THEM CLOSER if done right. Gosho sort of did that in London, but that took him 600 episodes and over 700 files to do! And he quickly switched focus and DIDN'T COMPLETE THE EMOTIONAL ARC OF THE TWO CHARACTERS! It is almost like it NEVER HAPPENED! Development of characters and non-mystery related stories is one of the MAJOR pitfalls of DC. If Gosho started dropping the unnecessary and focused only on the mystery like SACD did, I'd have no problems because then character development would not be as paramount. Seeing as he won't do that, it annoys me and gives me reason to hate his characters. </rant> Apologies for the jumping around with thought process too.... Edit: I should note, that is why it took so long to actually post here... I couldn't very well type that on my phone. Also, I hope I satisfied the requirements needed to dislike or hate a character so that my post doesn't get taken apart by pro-Ran (or any other character I mentioned in there or anti-[insert character I spoke more highly of here]) Because I really feel legitimate in my dislike/hate of these characters. *Looks at AJ* Seriously... I could go on with superficial reasons on why not to like her like others have done, but all that is pointless because what I ranted about here is really the main reason why I dislike her.

    Well...I guess we'll just gather everything s-l-o-w-l-y here since we do not seem to have any frequently active Pokemon fans around right now. :V Any suggestions on getting this started? KKLT: Ryuuji: KtPT: Parkur: Kim-Chan: Lady Irene Adler: Samantha:

    Hmm according to these personifications we observe that--> Kyuu and Cure-Kun are in love with Kim-chan. Balthazar and Aeyra are divorced couples, and have Kim-chan as their child. JustaL and Hano have crush on Mabel who herself loves Cure-kun. Aiconanlove is afraid of Detective Kudo and of Moho. MM is apparently Kyuu's (Cure-kun) father. AJM and Shiraz are apparently another couple in love. KTPT and Misaki are also in love. Jovan is a gossipy girl and used to tease and trouble KTPT. Carpet Crawler has finally found phantomlady, his childhood love interest. conanshinichi is bk201's younger brother. bk201 is currently working with CIA (and also spying DCW). xXEdogawa-kunXx does the odd jobs at a murder scene. Black Demon and Monsi are Grandpa's of DCW. Metantei Holmes is either dead or alive, we dont know that. He also isnt in a relationship with Sayomi anymore. dw5chaosfan is Moho's partner. Tsukiko has been a golden apple as well as rotten apple. Her history is mystery and she calls Kim-chan and Kyuu (Cure-Kun) "Angel" and "Silver Bullet" respectively. Natsumi-chan has passed away(no offence), but she loved Metantei Holmes. KKLT and Identity Unknown are in love. (Umm..wait..what the hell is happeneing?) MKK is Identity Unknown's father and is obsessed to catch KKLT. Akako Koizumi wants KKLT to fall for her naturally. (Again..what the hell is happening?) Southpaw is also childhood love interest of Monsi. Shinichi Natake is an excellent Sniper. Chekhov is a good Tennis player. Parkur is the criminal everytime. Balthazar is completely infatuated with the young popstar,True-tears. Nobody is very clumsy. Faye and Kim-chan are best friends. Cure-kun has DetectiveRJB's email address. Am i correct?

    Spoilerama courtesy the awesome Zenthisoror for the DCTP spoiler cbox! Title: DNA Tests Banba: "A detective? That's so weird! Why the hell are you dressed like a waiter?" Amuro: "I asked Hatsune to choose the restaurant where I was being employed...in order to observe your behaviour. She'd asked me to investigate whether there was a chance you were involved with some woman, with you being as you are. That's why I dropped the cake on purpose." "I dropped the cake on you in the hope that you'd be too embarrassed to approach a woman...as it turned out, you got along pretty well with them without any sign of embarrassment whatsoever...anyway, far from being able to carry out my work... Hatsune herself has been burnt to death...but as for the situation I was investigating, perhaps he in the sunglasses will be able to shed some light on this? After all, he just happened to be there during the report on the progress so far of preliminary investigations..." Megure: "Who are you?!" Amuro: "My guess is that he's a detective...he'd been employed by Banba to find out who his girlfriend had been meeting in secret lately...he managed to work out the secret meeting place, but the man she was meeting was wearing a hat and a hoodie and his face wasn't discernible...and then he realized that the voice of that hooded man was similar to that of me, a waiter." "That is why he called me over to make his order, to check my voice...and then by some signal or other he indicated to Banba that I and Hastune's secret visitor were one and the same person. Just beforehand, he called Banba out to the toilet so that he could warn him that said mystery gentleman might just possibly be inside the restaurant...and that he was now going to investigate further. Isn't that so?" Haruoka: "In...in...indeed! To think that you were a detective...I tried to follow you and got thoroughly put down." Takagi: "But, you were going to marry her, knowing that she was seeing somebody else?" Mouri: "Wouldn't you normally ask the lady herself?" Banba: "Haruoka told me that she hadn't seen the guy since that one meeting, and I thought she'd turn on me if she found out I'd been investigating her! We're really close, after all, we trusted each other enough to tell each other that we were both adopted as kids..." Mouri: "If you'd asked me, I would have revealed this guy to be a detective straight away!" Banba: "But you're too famous now. Everybody knows your face...and I was hoping to introduce you later to Hatsune." Mouri: "But if you'd left it to me....You know, she might've committed suicide because this guy told her on the phone about your loutish behaviour..." Amuro: "I didn't say anything about that." Banba: "She said goodbye. She was crying..." He shows the inspector his phone record at 8:54pm. The 110 call occurred at 9:21pm... Megure makes a comment about the thirty minute gap between the incident and the call... Ran: "That's because we tried to call the ambulance and fire brigade first and that was more of a hassle than we anticipated... but by the time the ambulance arrived....the fire inside of the car was apparently completely out of control..." Conan ponders on why the car was burning in such an extravagant manner...Ran tells him that every now and again there had been some smaller explosions... Takagi explains that that was probably due to the large bulk of aerosols, paper and cardboard inside the car. Megure asks Banba why they'd had these items. Banba replies that after the party the two of them had been planning to stencil their car with spray paint. Then they'd turn up to the wedding in it, and surprise everybody. Banba: "If you think I'm lying look at my mail. There's a message saying we'd got together all the items we needed." Megure looks at the "I'll be back in 30 mins" message from the nail salon, and starts saying that Banba knew about the inflammable materials in the car and what time she'd be coming back to the restaurant....and the skin sample under the nail was a pretty close match...so you could possibly...he theorizes... Amuro: "You say pretty close...but it's possible that with the rain and the dirt...unless you're a relative, a near match would basically indicate..." Amuro casts a glance of suspicion in Banba's direction. Banba: "What?!" He starts to throw himself at Amuro, but Amuro steps lightly out of the way and says (perhaps with exaggeration), Amuro: "Please stop...." Mouri calms down Banba whilst Conan notices something on the sole of one of Banba's shoe. Conan: "Hmm? So how did he..." Banba agrees to a more exact DNA test and goes off with Takagi. Conan: "Well, once we get a proper result things will become a little clearer...we can start thinking about the trick after that." Ran: "But DNA tests are pretty incredible, aren't they?" Conan: "Yeah, I guess they are." Ran: "I mean, if somebody changed their entire appearance, you'd still be able to tell who they are..." Conan: "Ye...Yeah..." Takagi tells Megure that the key to the case might be the one door from the back of the shop into the carpark. If somebody had gone in and out of the front entrance, somebody would remember... You could also get to the carpark by getting out of the toilet... Underneath the window there's a huge puddle of water...if somebody had gone through that there ought to be some footprints inside... There's nobody in the shop with dirty hems or shoes... Later, they talk about how windy it was the time of the crime...and how Hatsune's umbrella had been blown away to the other end of the car park... Conan: "The wind? True...it was rather windy when we arrived at the shop..." Megure gathers the two detectives, Haruka and Amuro. Megure: "Do you know of any disputes? Any worries that were dire enough to push somebody towards suicide?" Haruoka: "Hmm, not really. Banba was a bit shocked when I told him she'd met a man....more recently, I think he was concerned about these mysterious phone calls she'd been covertly making to somebody...although, she was probably just talking to this here person..." Amuro: "Ah...no...my communication with her was entirely by mail...in terms of face to face meetings, the one time was the one you observed...however, there was one time when her face seemed to cloud over briefly... I'd been investigating Banba and I found out that she and he had both been rescued from a burning hotel...and they'd been raised without knowledge of their parentage in a church community... " Conan: "Eh?" Megure: "So the two of them both lost their parents in the fire?" "Probably...the two of them were babies at the time." Megure: "So the two were childhood friends?" Amuro: "No...he found a foster family straight away...she stayed at the church for a bit longer..." Megure: "But why would that make Hatsune suddenly grim?" Amuro: "Who knows? She said she'd continue that line of investigation herself." Conan: "Hey, Ran-neesan? Hatsune's height...she was little shorter than you wasn't she?" Ran: "Yes...but she was wearing high heeled boots so she might have only been about 150cm." Conan: "The average height for a woman is about 159 isn't it?" Chiba confirms that the corpse is lacking one false nail. Conan runs outside and asks the crime scene investigators where they'd found Hatsune's umbrella. At that spot, the tyres and car bodies act as rainshields and so the ground is hardly dirty at all... Conan finds a false nail there, with some blood and skin on its tip and he tells the investigator. Conan: "If I'm not mistaken...this should make everything clear...who took away her life...and...if everything is as I have deduced... (he glances at Banba) a sorrowful truth will be revealed, on the eve of a wedding...one which it would have been better not to have known." Done!

    Hello again ~! I just love drawing x3 Anyway since the MEAP (Michigan State Test) starts tomorrow I'll probably REALLY tired when I get home so I outlined and upload these today ^^ I've been re-reading/re-watch some of my favorite DC arcs, chapters, movies, episodes and I got one of my drawing 'temptations' again. Soo here is.. Conan/Shinichi ! This is from movie 2 towards the end. Probably one of my favorite things about the movie, such an epic scene! I kind had to play a guessing game on how some parts looked because the reference I used only gave me so much to copy. (The gun looks like BLAHH and outlining fail *sigh*) Ran ! From the Desperate Revival Arc. She looked so pretty in the manga I just had to draw this ;3 (Yes I know outlining fail on some parts T^T) Haibara ! This one is probably my favorite out of the three, by just a little. This is from the episode with the train station murder and the Tokyo Spirits vs. O-something? I think? I found a screencap with google and I remembered how cute Ai-chan was in this eppy >w< And MitsuAi was in this ep \o/ (Yes I realize the outlining is a bit sloppy here as well..) I can't mimic the original pictures perfectly, and the proportions are a bit 'ehh' but I thought these came out good enough for me to post em'. Anyway feedback is wonderful? Criticism given should be constructive, (So I know you guys are nice and mature but I'm just making sure. So just make sure if you tell me about my bad points that you tell me what or how to improve not just, "you suck." and leave =__='')
