  1. So... Being shot (nearly dying too) and falling off of a cliff into a river... those things aren't bad? I'm pretty sure they were both near death experiences that he barely escaped with his life. Investigates without being seen... So all the times he was thrown out by the MPD, and Kogorou never happened? or all the times he was noticed by other parties. Oh and the occasional bumping into people while looking on the floor for clues. A ninja Conan is not. In terms of BO he was noticed one which nearly killed him. Since then he revealed himself to gin at least once that I can recall. He also tends to get noticed by vermouth because she is watching him. He is lucky she isn't trying to kill him.
  2. Uh... Chek don't you think you should spoiler tag some of your post? Though no specifics were given it does allude to information not yet revealed in the Anime Chek's reply: I don't know. DCW has never had a clear policy about anime spoilers in general discussion. Far more often than not anime spoilers are uncovered because a lot of plot sensitive threads are on the general board. It seems to be status quo at this point. The boards were initially set up with little separation as far as I can tell and then there is the wiki which is a spoilerific free-for-all. Maybe the policy will change come a new arc. The anime section is supposed to be anime spoiler free, and manga spoilers should always be covered regardless of location.
  3. The only point of debate to me is the twilight thing. Everything else is my personal view. I've said my piece and won't be delving deeper.

  4. Where oh where do I begin... First with Twilight... No I didn't read it... well I tried and couldn't make it past the horrible writing. So I made it 5 chapters before stopping. Watched a few riffs of the movies and got the basic story... Horrible point of comparison. Seriously... The secrets being held in Twilight are nothing like the secret in DC. It is a poor point of comparison... Honestly, I see it closer to Sherlock Holmes post-Reichenbach Falls if ANY literary parallel must be made. The main detective somehow miraculously survived a brush with death with one of the main forces in a large lethal organization so much so that he had to ensure that everyone thought him dead and basically stay underground with one person knowing the secret who could handle his assets. The only difference? The time against Moriarty's organization was only implied and thus didn't last nearly as long, preventing others from discovering. But I personally can imagine Gosho writing DC as an homage to Sherlock Holmes during his time against Moriarty's Org with a few twists of his own (shrunken body, and basically a first lieutenant doing the killing not the leader, and the bad guy surviving leaving more of a challenge for the protagonist) Now, you made an interesting choice of words... "Reckless." Shinichi was ALWAYS reckless. "Hm, a guy who looks like a professional killer and his partner... Maybe I should follow the partner completely forgetting about the killer looking dude." Reckless? Lethally so. It is pure dumb luck that Shinichi did not die from a poison that kills the majority of its victims. I'm pretty sure that he did more stupid stuff in the past too that we don't know about, due to his arrogance and overwhelming idealism. Now moving on to the point of this question... Revealing his identity. I shall permit the notion that initially, when he knew nothing of the BO and was basically running blind before Haibara and Akemi, he was totally correct in his assertion, because he didn't know anything either. However, after that point his decision to persist in his ruse to keep his identity secret became increasingly reckless. And ironically, he became reckless in actually KEEPING it secret. First, not allowing his father to get Interpol involved. Why? Because he didn't want to go into protective custody because of Ran. However, he could have told his father to just TIP THEM OFF AND GET THEM INVOLVED without mentioning him. That way he would have his father and at least a few ICPO agents helping uncover the Org, along with the FBI who was apparently already on the case. Second, allowing pretty much anyone with half a brain to figure out his secret. Ran is apparently the most gullible person in the series, because Heiji figured it out like it was nothing and he basically allowed Takagi and Sato have extreme suspicions. In fact, he basically TOLD Takagi that he was not normal in the elevator. There is no way Takagi forgot that or wrote it off as childs play. He is pretty reckless with keeping his own identity a secret... except.... Third, THE FBI! I'm putting this up with extreme arrogance and recklessness. Hey, Shinichi... There are professional agents whom have YEARS of experience dealing with organized crime syndicates in the USA... I think they are called the FBI, perhaps you've heard of them? Yeah, THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING, YOU DO NOT! You should have told them once you realized they could be trusted. Why in blue blazes have you NOT DONE SO ALREADY?! Do you REALLY think that you can defeat the BO by basically using them? Really? I think you need to think again, since... you know... you nearly got killed by them a few other times. And nearly got Kogorou and Ran killed too. In fact, had it NOT been for those professional agents known as the FBI, THEY'D BE DEAD ALREADY (and Vermouth telling Gin as well)! Probably you too! AIN'T THAT GRAND?! Stop being a reckless idiot and TELL THEM ALREADY! Fourth, Ran and Kogorou... Less reckless more stupid. Really, as Madeline said, this is a case where ignorance is NOT bliss. I mean considering that they have been targeted already... And the only reason they aren't being watched as closely is because of Vermouth... Yeah... He should have told at least Ran right after that incident. Doing so would not have changed status quo so much. Ran would be conflicted because she'd realize that it was Shinichi solving all those cases and not her father. But in the end, I think she would believe in him enough to keep things the way they are. However, she would also know to be more careful. Possibly avoiding situations like the one where she nearly got killed by Calvados had it not been for Vermouth stopping him. That and his apparent horrible aim (I'm pretty certain that BO gunmen are trained to shoot moving targets)... She would still want to help, but if he told her that the FBI were already helping, there would be no reason for her to go to the MPD (which would be the only other possibility other than telling her father). She might become a bit more proactive, but that is about it... So in the end... Yes, Shinichi was, is and probably always will be extremely reckless and arrogant. I sincerely hope SOMETHING happens that will FINALLY get him to change that. Personally I think either Ran or Kogorou ending up in the hospital because of the BO would do that... Or something else... I don't know... But I do hope it happens...

  5. Who ever said Sonoko is useless has no idea about anything to do with literature. She isn't useful because Conan uses her for deductions... She is useful because she is a FOIL to Ran. That makes her VERY important. And I still "hate" her despite that. Mainly because I find both her and Ran annoying to some degree. Along with Shinichi and Conan and a number of other characters. (Really its just a burning dislike... well usually)
  6. I was actually going to ask someone to put that up, I'm too lazy/suck at wiki editing. So... yeah...

  7. TTX Technically complete... Carbon Monoxide started. The latter may be posted before TTX. Keep a look out DCW!

      -_- balthazar... Seriously... this is not easy >_> I'm doing my best, as it stands, just figuring out the sea snake venom was difficult (which I recently did)... And what I listed was only the beginning so... yeah...

      I was curious what seasnake venom was, but I could hardly find anything about it. All I saw was "dangerous snakes" but not the poison itself...

      Yeah... that was... er... difficult to find... Took some rummaging through journal articles to find, but I found it!

Notes on accuracy in DC: Final note:
  9. Magic Kaito eps are basically anime filler episodes. They don't have a release schedule. It isn't even officially a separate anime from Detective Conan. Its aired in the same time slot, and has DC cameos as well.
  10. I'd argue that it isn't actually Ran, but Gosho and his inability to complete any romantic story arc. Or at the very least he is very bad at it (probably wants to prolong it). Deaths and murders? Over in a few files... Romantic interactions? Oh... only about 150+ or so before any progress is made. Let's face it... Gosho is a troll. Its almost as bad as BO.... (which is usually 100 files between development)
  11. Tetrodotoxin analysis started. Not updating thread yet though.

  12. I think labeling spoilers based on source would be enough. Ie: Chinese scans, [person]'s translations, dctp translations. If it remains to be an issue, I'd consider that to be a means of last resort, because it would break discussion. At least imo.
  13. Er... Have you seen episode 304? That was the Matsuda case... Gosho did that deliberately.
  14. So I take it my analysis was perfect other than what Chek said? FANTASTIC (Or everyone here is intimidated by it >_>)

      well, there are links so even if you don't know (or forgot), you can always look at the link. besides, you will eventually run into those words anyways. :P.. if you are studying bio/chem field.

  15. Must I quote Sherlock Holmes? "when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth" If we assume that Shinichi would have noticed the lack of wind created by his scenario, then despite its difficulties and inherent improbability, my scenario would be the most logical, as it is a possible method, because it is simply not impossible. However, if we assume that Shinichi didn't notice, or was distracted by the tear drop that hit him before it occurred thus preventing him from noticing the break in wind, then the former scenario is the most probable, as it is the simplest and most possible scenario.
  16. 1) We don't know her training or range of experience. We only know what Shinichi deduced. 2) There are women who do Chinese Pole Gymnastics. There is a woman of similar body type doing it. And the pole is... unstable and moving 3) I never said it was easy, just possible. EDIT: Granted, the pole moving in that video is not going at 49kmh. Still proves that it is possible for a woman of similar body type to do it on an unstable platform.
  17. Perhaps you are not familiar with pole acrobatics, aka chinese poles. It is completely and entirely possible to get the position needed using the method I suggested. Yup, chinese pole acrobatics. I think it could work. The same amount of leg would be required to stabilize as Shinichi used to demonstrate it too (up to the knee). Just because Shinichi did not/could not do it in his demonstration does not mean its impossible for someone with the proper training. As for the arterial cut, then yeah... Not enough... 3cm spurt with an initial acceleration of .75m/s in conditions at speed ranging from 48-129kmh, with air resistance and extreme wind.... There is no way the blood made it the likely 1m distance to Shinichi and Ran.
  18. I send PM, I'm not sure what I am about to post is allowed or not. But I assure you, clicking the link I will send will answer your question.
  19. BTW everyone, now that I analyzed Potassium Cyanide, I want some feedback. What you thought of it, suggestions, anything I could do to make it clearer etc... Anything at all. This is going to be a long project and I want to put all possible effort into it to make it the best as it can be. If it is a success I'll probably work with people to add it to the Wiki.

      To remind people, this is what I am talking about: Seriously I need feedback. If you didn't understand something TELL ME! This should be easy enough to understand by ANYONE with a strong grasp of English. Chek has already given me feedback which I'll look into adding this weekend.

  20. Not what I meant. What I meant was not over the side but to one side entirely, locking her legs into one side of the harness, instead of the middle bar on each side, the bar on the far right (if the cars are facing you). If she locked her left leg to the middle portion and interlocked her right around the outside of the right, she should have been able to be far enough off center to prevent wind from being blocked. With her build and skill as a gymnast, she should have been able to do such a feat. And honestly, it would make sense to me that she would want to do that because she wouldn't want to risk touching Shinichi. Looking over the file again, I see what you mean, I totally forgot about that... Though that bothers me... Shinichi nor Ran should have never felt the blood... The heart doesn't pump that strongly so that it could go against physics (as in the forward motion of the car plus the wind) and gush THAT much. It just doesn't, Gosho should have consulted his brother about the strength of the human heart pumping, because even when the heart is racing from adrenaline due to a roller coaster ride, its not strong enough to make that effect. There might have been a light blood spray from the initial cut, but that would not have made it to Shinichi on a roller coaster. Unless all I learned about kinematics is wrong...
  21. Chek, is it not possible that with her physique and skill, she went to the far side (the side closest to the edge with the rail) minimizing the blocking of the wind? This would also account for there being no chance for her to touch Shinichi, causing further reason for Shinichi not to notice. She didn't need to be directly in front to put the necklace around the victim. Shinichi felt a "tear" not blood as I recall. And that is an interesting theory. I like it. Also... of all people, I don't think Gin nor Vodka would be bothered by blood or a severed head. Surprised perhaps, but their first instinct would probably be to get cleaned up as you said.
  22. She could have done it fast enough so that he wouldn't "feel" her. I don't know... All I know is that he didn't notice her for one reason or another, and it isn't all that odd that he didn't either.
