	Although popular in many other countries, ''Case Closed'' was not as successful in the US. Many of its factors are most likely poor advertising, character name changes and script changes around Japanese characters and their culture. Despite their intention to make the series more accessible to general audience, the changes to more Westernized character names was very criticized. Due to this, [[FUNimation\|Funimation Entertainment]]'s dubbed version of ''Case Closed'' was cancelled at only 123 episodes and 6 movies.

	Although popular in many other countries, ''Case Closed'' was not as successful in the US.

Due to this, [[FUNimation\|Funimation Entertainment]]'s dubbed version of ''Case Closed'' was cancelled at only 123 episodes and 6 movies.
