=== Situation ===<br />
When Sonoko's Dad uses his connections, Ran and Sonoko find themselves in a Karaoke Bar having lunch with the hottest bad in the land! It seems like a dream come true until the lead singer--Tatsuya Kimura--is poisoned right in front of their eyes. The brash super-star had plenty of enemies, but which of them hated him enough to commit murder? It's up to Conan to find out! <br />

=== Resolution ===<br />
<br />
<spoiler><br />
The killer is Mari Terahara, the manager. <br />
<br />
In the anime, Mari killed Kimura because he turned psychologically abusive to her after she had a nose job. It turns out that not only he liked her better when she was just a sweet girl next door, but that he was psychologically broken after finding out that Mari had specifically gotten plastic surgery to please him, which he could never forgive her and himself for. <br />
<br />
Kimura decided to punish both of them by abusing her, while he secretly wrote a love song for Mari which would have been his first single; however, his taunting went so far that Mari was completely embittered, and then decided to have revenge by killing him. <br />
</spoiler><br />
<br />
==Manga to anime changes==<br />
*The manga reveals that Tatsuya was rude to his band, because he didn't want them to miss him after he left.<br />
*The anime ends with Ran receiving her present, whereas the manga ends with her trying to find Shinichi (while Conan is shown, nervously hiding). The scene as it appeared in the anime was used for the ending of the ''Mountain Villa Bandaged Man Murder Case''.<br />
