To be consistent with current Wiki standards, it should be written as "Koji Haneda", so basically not the manga version nor the anime version. Still don't understand why it's left as "Kohji" on his character page when the double vowels in romaji spelling weren't kept for Shinichi or Yusaku Kudo, and many other characters, never mind adding an h. Only exception being the Mouris I believe.

Just butting in to say that any knowledge I may have brought to the table was based on the french fan-translated version which is translated from japanese but is of course also prone to potential mistakes. This means I am in no way a reliable source to put forward in an argument when it comes to these issues, not nearly as reliable as Spimer, Serinox or Yunnie anyway.

There was also the Moon, Star and Sun case which aired nearly 4 years after its manga publication. http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/The_Secret_of_the_Moon,_the_Star,_and_the_Sun

That episode had Kogoro knowing about Conan imitating his voice. It never happened in the manga. That's quite a plot-hole.

Saying it's not canon is not a judgment on the quality of the content. All AOs could be brilliant masterpieces, it still wouldn't make them canon or give them any weight in terms of what actually happens in the manga.

Indeed.

The second parts in the three parter cases are generally the most boring.

I like this sequel much more than the original case which was frankly quite boring. And the best is yet to come.

I thought it was actually decent for a one part AO. I was just a bit annoyed by the foreigner being a caricature once again but then they all seemed to be somewhat.

Last week was indeed a break. And the previous break was because of Golden Week.

Isn't it because "cha" sounds like "tcha" in Japanese ? For example, "Shinichi" will actually sound like "Shinitchi". And since Charles in French isn't pronounced with the 'tcha" sound but with the "cha" sound (unlike in English), it makes more sense to use the "sha" hiragana to convey that specific pronounciation.

You're right that it looks too liquid and not coagulant enough. And yes there was dark red blood here and there (http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/images/thumb/b/b1/EP172_Case.jpg/290px-EP172_Case.jpg) but black blood was already pretty common.

It's been like that for ages. The above episode aired in July 1999.

That blonde woman took like half a minute to walk 10 meters.

Episode 304 - The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages

No. One of the best. I like Spider Mansion better.

Case looks like it has a lot of potential. Could be as good as Mermaid Island if handled right.

I think it was movie 17's pre-story which was all about chocolate. Apparently the pre-story writers enjoy food.

This movie pre-stories are always a bit silly but this one was indeed better than last year's which was as awful as they come. Too bad we didn't get to see Vermouth though.

Sorry for picking the wrong section, my bad. I agree with you about the people's section as well, and it's not only the movies, far from it. http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/The_Mysterious_Shooting_Message_Case http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Hijacked_Department_Store_Case etc. In each case, do we really need 'man #1', 'man #2', "man #3' and 'man #4' ? I'm of the opinion that unnamed people shouldn't even appear there. About recurring characters, I think there is a level of recurring : Takahiro Sanada, for example, is now definitely worth mentioning. However, I'm not sure all the different very minor police staff have even reached that level of recurring. Having them in the cast list feels like it needlessly overloads it. Not to mention all the animals have now joined the people's section : http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Missing_Corpse_Murder_Case http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Company_President's_Daughter_Kidnapping_Case Another issue is repetition, for example Gin and Vodka appear three times on the page of the first episode : http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Roller_Coaster_Murder_Case

Going through the wiki, I've noticed an expansion of the cast section recently, a good example is Movie 18 : http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Dimensional_Sniper Firstly, all the 'background' characters that don't actually make an appearance or even speak (Gin, Chianti, Korn...). In fact I would think people who look for Gin, Shinichi or Heiji episodes look for episodes in which they appear or at least talk, not for episodes where they just make a background appearance. Secondly, the cameo characters : fair enough for MG in that case I suppose (and even then...) but does Detective Kurumazaki (does anyone even know him ?) appearing even need to be mentioned in the cast list ? Thirdly, all the unimportant characters such as Miyuki Tabeta, the aforementioned Detective Kurumazaki or, and the most ridiculous in this case, 'woman'. I would suggest having a required minimum amount of apperances to be in the cast list and getting rid of the characters who only make a background apparance without even speaking. Otherwise, we have these ridiculously large cast lists which I don't think bring much valuable information. Any opinions ?

I can give you a link to the first 36 volumes in indonesian if you're interested.

For the average japanese person, buying Conan ensures first and foremost that you'll be getting your mystery of the week/month, therefore there will always be some kind of mystery (a murder, a code, a burglary, a hostage situation etc.) to go along with the story so at this point it's kind of pointless to hope for this to suddenly change.

I can't believe they air this like that on TV for 30 minutes. It's honestly cringe-worthy and off-putting.
