    Well, he's dead. Was would be better to use.

    Gosho confirmed that Wataru Date is not Scotch. The end. His notebook, I think, has some importance that has yet to be revealed. Besides that, I think he was supposed to be the impetus for the case he was introduced in (File 804–File 808/Episode 681–Episode 683), and to hint that Rei/Tooru was PSB/PSIA. Guess that detail wasn't in the spoilers—that is all we've got, at this point. I guess because his purpose was to help ensure that confrontation ended in a draw—Vermouth needed a lackey for that. I think it was just glasses and a hat (Episode 425)—you could see the rest of his face. I'll give it a few hours, from now, in terms of it releasing today—if it's not up by the end of the day in China, I'll assume we're getting it on Wednesday.

    True—the discrepancy between Shuichi's/Subaru's phones in File 843 and File 898 could be merely due to Gosho not caring about the continuity. So that's what they do, huh? Thanks for the info! So Rei/Tooru can do magic hacking, as well? All he did in File 814 was know Kogoro's password in advance. Wait... what does Scarlet Showdown, as in File 894–File 897 (and File 897 is considered the end of the Bourbon arc—File 898, where we see Shuichi's/Subaru's phone, is considered the start of the Rum arc), have to do with the question of the middle brother's and Shuichi's/Subaru's phone(s)?

    Can you put this in the proper thread? Talk about File 936 should go in the thread for the case that file is part of... Yeah, I'm enthusiastic about making a thread for the cases for the first time, I admit.
  12. DCUniverseAficionado
    THIS THREAD is used to discuss about SPOILERS. In other words, if you only read the English version and wish to wait for the full release instead of getting spoiled, this is NOT the right place for you! RULES OF THE SPOILER-ONLY DISCUSSION THREAD: 1. Any kind of spoiler involving the case (pictures, texts, information, full scans...) of any language that is released before the English version must be posted HERE. The English translations of the spoilers must also be posted here. 2. Any kind of discussion involving the spoilers must be posted HERE. 3. Despite being a spoiler-only thread, EVERY spoiler and discussion involving events that have not happened in the English releases STILL has to be put inside Spoiler boxes. When the file in question is fully released in English, this is not necessary anymore. 4. NO DIRECT LINK to any Japanese scans (RAWs) or English scans (Japanese spoiler pictures are allowed as long as the amount and quality of which are very far away from a full scan, like the ones we usually have). HOW TO USE A SPOILER BOX? Just simply type the following: Or more manually: Step 1: Click the "Special BBCode" icon at the upper-left side of the edit toolbar. Step 2: In BBCode, select "Spoiler". Step 3: Enter the text that you want to put inside Spoiler boxes, then click OK.

    Two phones is fine, but three? Even for an FBI agent who's faked his death, that's a bit much.
  14. DCUniverseAficionado
    It really seems as if Gosho's going to pull a twist on this—Shukichi would seem to be the obvious choice of who's contacting Masumi over the phone, but it really could be Shuichi/Subaru. So you're saying Shuichi/Subaru has 3 phones? Shukichi's phone is seen from an angle where we can see the bottom and part of the sides, while the other three only show the top parts—unless we see the top of Shukichi's phone, I'm not convinced Shukichi's phone can't be the second one.
  15. DCUniverseAficionado
    Sorry, I meant completely convinced. He wouldn't want to let her know after Mystery Train?
  16. DCUniverseAficionado
    Found this: EDIT: And this:
  17. DCUniverseAficionado
    Agreed, completely. I'm honestly convinced, at this point, that Masumi is just telling everyone she's in contact with her second brother (Shukichi) when she's actually in contact with her first brother (Shuichi/Subaru). Why is it that you're not convinced? All Gosho has shown and told us about who Masumi has been in contact with and what he's like looks like his way of a twist setup. I feel the "hint" about MG and Shuichi/Subaru being happy at Shukichi winning the 7th shogi title (File 902/Episode 786) is different from the "hint" about Shukichi putting Yumi on hold and then putting her back on, and this period of Yumi waiting for him to put her back on is filled by Masumi's brief conversation with her middle brother before he hangs up (File 929).

    Ah, that outfit, from Department Store Bomber Case/The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen (File 700–File 704/Episode 578–Episode 581)—considering the texture, it looks like Shuichi/Subaru is the one receiving the text, there. Shukichi's shogi clothes lack the pattern that Shuichi's/Subaru's clothes from File 700–File 704/Episode 578–Episode 581 have. If you brighten the scanlation of the other files where Shuichi/Subaru is wearing the black shirt, you should get the shirt in the original SS version of File 860. Actually, it looks like the brightness of the collar and the shirt were simply changed between the SS version and the Volume 81 version. EDIT: Just thought of something—do you have the original SS releases of the panels with Shukichi that you're showing?
  19. DCUniverseAficionado
    But those are from two different angles. Put in pictures with more angles, and we'll see. Plus, why would Gosho even make the change? If Shuichi/Subaru is the one in contact with Masumi, the black shirt is fine. Both Shukichi and Shuichi/Subaru have a black shirt with appropriate sleeves. Does Shuichi/Subaru have attire with a sleeve like this?
  20. DCUniverseAficionado
    Look at File 899–File 902 and compare the sleeves of Shukichi's shogi attire to the sleeves, here—they don't match. He does, though, wear a black shirt with sleeves like the ones seen in the image you're showing... but Shuichi/Subaru has a shirt like that, too, and he's worn it much more often (File 638–File 640, File 812–File 814, File 843). Shuichi's/Subaru's phone matches the phone seen in File 860, and so does Shukichi's phone (from the little we got of it in File 929). At this point, I think that Shukichi really is the brother of Shuichi/Subaru and Masumi and the son of MG (if she's their mother, which seems quite likely), but Shuichi/Subaru has been the one in contact with Masumi in Steamy Relations (File 856–File 858/Episode 740 and Episode 741), Bumper Brawn (File 859–File 861/Episode 744 and Episode 745), and A Killer in Ramen Ogura (File 928–File 930), and she's telling everyone who asks about the identity of who's she's talking to that its Shukichi. She wouldn't tell Shinichi/Conan who she's really talking to because she doesn't know that he's working with Shuichi/Subaru, since Shuichi/Subaru wouldn't tell her that.
  21. DCUniverseAficionado
    Still, you'd think the anime staff knows that they're doing it wrong. Maybe it just doesn't matter to them—they can just ignore it, after all, like they did with Episode 5, Episode 13 and Episode 128. They could add a scene in in which Shuichi/Subaru is shown to have a second phone, if he turns out to be the one in contact with Masumi, if they so desired. It's just that they got the models of phones wrong, in those images—it wouldn't take much effort, you'd think, to simply duplicate the manga, in this respect.
  22. DCUniverseAficionado
    I was wondering if a hint about him meant he'd appear in the coming File/case... still unconfirmed, but, it most likely means he'll be in at least a File—even better if it's the whole case. The thought of asking Rei/Tooru about Rum crossed his mind in File 906—but, knowing Gosho, he'll probably keep the talking about that to a minimum... that is, if Gosho will even allow them to talk about Rum and not just tease us with the very notion of them talking about Rum.
  23. DCUniverseAficionado
    Even though nobody in the Organization, save Vermouth, knows what APTX 4869 does, you'd think that Taka'aki, if he's Rum, would've at least thought of drawing a connection, by now. Other than that, he could very well be Rum. If Heizo is Rum, then he married a very moral woman and had a son who could very well make things difficult for him, and that he might have to do away with. If Matsumoto is Rum, then his appearance 3 years from current events in DC in File 80 can't have happened, and Gosho will need to say he's changing things. Movies aren't canon, which allows for Matsumoto to still be Rum, from that angle, but still... why have Irish impersonate Rum if Rum could just inform the rest of the BO on what was happening? Then there's his proximity to Shinichi/Conan and his opportunities to observe him. Last Rei/Tooru Appearance: File 898 Last Rum-focused File: File 908 (Prosthetic Eye) Over a year. Yes, we are due.
  24. DCUniverseAficionado
    Unless the manga is narrowing down suspects and beginning the reveal by the time the movie comes out, the movie won't be giving us any clues. Dimensional Sniper may have revealed to us that Shuichi = Subaru, but we had plenty of clues to figure that out, beforehand. Unless the clues to figure out Rum's identity have been there all along, the movie won't be cluing us in. Also, the characters introduced as part of the intro (plot-relevant characters who hadn't yet appeared in a movie) were likely due to the fact that the movie came out during DC's 20th year anniversary. Remember all those manga panels that flew by each of those characters? Who knows what the intro sequence of Movie 20 will be like? It is true that Taka'aki hasn't seen Shiho/Ai, but he's gotten the chance to observe Shinichi/Conan and his intelligence more than any other police officer, considering he's from Nagano. You'd think he would've put two and two together, at this point... and what about his friendship with Kansuke? Unless showing that was to make clear that if Kansuke finds out Taka'aki is Rum, he'll have a hard time bringing him down and turning him in, having them be such good friends serves no purpose, if Taka'aki is Rum.

    Quite frankly, we're due this scene—it's been over a hundred files (nearly 3 and 1/2 years) since focus has been put on just Shuichi/Subaru and Shiho/Ai; of course, the same goes for her finding out more info that Shinichi/Conan has kept from her, and us finding out what was in Akemi's PS in her text to Shuichi after 7 and 1/2 years of wondering (though it's not hard to guess what the gist of it was).
