Those two were actually pretty funny! A rep for you!

In general, I like the newer style. Especially since the drawings for the anime aren't as sloppy as they used to be from around 500-600. After 600, they started to get a bit better, more like the movies.

The ending has been released already! Pilgrim's run as the ending was an extremely short one, and now this new chibi ShinRan ending has replaced it. I've added it to the first post of this topic for easy viewing. My thoughts: It's a pretty simple ShinRan ending, not too much symbolism involved in this one. The song isn't too bad, and I enjoy listening to it. I give this ending a 3.5/5 due to it's lack of originality. But please share your thoughts on this new ending! Enjoy!

Also, using that chapter page you posted, did anyone else find it suspicious that James Black was the only one who recognized Sera as being a girl on the first try? Not to mention he only saw a picture of her and never actually met her in person. Everyone else (Conan, the police, Ran and Sonoko, etc.) all thought she was a boy, but this one man figured out she was a girl with only a picture as reference. James Black uses the excuse that his eyes have been cultivated this way with age, but I have a feeling he's keeping something away from the other agents. I think he knows Sera and has possibly come into contact with her before, but he can't tell anyone. I just don't know how this would tie in with anything.

He probably told them the majority of the truth. He probably said this strange man disguised as Matsumoto and attacked everyone for no real apparent reason. Then he was accidentally killed when the strange helicopter randomly started shooting at the Tokyo Tower. The BO probably had hackers delete all of Irish's actual information (real name, age, finger prints, etc.) from the police's headquarters, ergo the police have no leads and the strange case is never to be solved.

As the title obviously states, Mai Kuraki will be releasing a new single on the 31st of October titled Your Best Friend and it will be the 40th ending of Detective Conan. It's nice to see Mai is actually making some new singles. She's had a long DC dry spell, though she has been busy with her two most recent singles: もう一度 and 1000万回のキス. I wonder if she purposely planned to release this new single on Halloween, though I obviously doubt it. And title itself is corny to say the least. But I have faith in her, and I'm sure this will be a good song. EDIT: The ending as already been uploaded to YouTube!

Out of all the characters that could possibly get on my nerves, the one that pisses me off the most is Kaito Kid. I can't, as of right now, think of anyone that would even make a close second.

As for why it's a murder, everyone had already mentioned the main things I noticed: the key, the knife angle, etc. No need for me to elaborate any more.

This case doesn't seem to be the most exciting, but I guess I'll continue to read it anyway. Let's just hope the next few cases go by fast so we can get to some more plot advances.

If you just check the wiki, they have all of them, from Shinichi all the way to Apollo Glass. But I also think the next one will be Sera. As of Volume 74, I don't really know... But when the next BO arc comes around, I'm guessing they'll have Scar Akai or Bourbon or Korn or Gin or any BO member that hasn't appeared in a keyhole yet.
