The Gold-Star Answer (はなまるな真実(アンサー) Wa Namaruna Shinjitsu (Ansā)), is the eighth special of Detective Conan and a crossover with Pretty Cure installment, Star Detective Precure!. It's one of the commemorative specials for the 30th anniversary of the Detective Conan anime. It aired on June 6, 2026.
As part of the collaboration with the Pretty Cure franchise, Star Detective Precure! aired a crossover episode with Detective Conan in their series with The Detectives Assemble (名探偵の
Jewelry stores across town are being robbed, but Conan's young friend Ayumi is excited. The crimes bear a striking resemblance to the events of a certain magical girl anime she's enjoying, and she's hopeful that she'll get to meet a "PreCure!" if the thieves show up again. Cure Answer appears in the episode, and Conan seems understandably surprised.

Episode numbering
There are some versions of how the episode is labeled. In the official website and Netflix, the episode is labeled as "Special Episode". In Weekly Shonen Sunday magazine, it is labeled as "30th Anniversary SP". In Crunchyroll, the episode is labeled as "P1". The international numbering still continues as usual (episode 1262). Interestingly, some participation post by involved animators labeled the episode as Episode 1203, suggesting that it was internally counted as the 1203th episode during production.[1][2]
Production details

The Detective Conan X Star Detective PreCure! collaboration project started with the Pretty Cure! producer, Masaya Aramaki, having interest in seeing both series connect with each other, due to its installment's detective theme and how he's a big fan of the Detective Conan series. Despite his doubts, he approached the Star Detective PreCure! staff about the crossover idea, half-jokingly saying "It'd be fun if we could do this, right?". The staff would be interested at the idea, along with TMS Entertainment and Yorimuri TV staff. Additionally, Yorimuri TV was interested at transcending the limits of the broadcasting stations with the crossover, since Star Detective PreCure! airs on TV Asahi.
Masataka Todo, the producer of Detective Conan, admits that it isn't unprecendented for studios and production companies to have collaborations, but noted that a collaboration with a high broadcasting station would be a "huge ask". And noted that the crossover between two series was a success thanks to the tireless effort of many parties involved.
During the proposal stages, the PreCure! producer Koji Kawasaki admits that he was skeptical at first with the collaboration as to whether it'd happen. As the collaboration advances in development stages, he admits that he remembers being hit with a strong wave of "Oh, is this really happening?". He was interested in seeing two different works be merged together and intrigued in using different approaches to take advantage of each series's setting. He also wanted the characters to be intrinsically involved in each other's stories, highlighting its self-contained nature.
Yasuichiro Yamamoto, the current Detective Conan director, was also enthusiastic about the crossover idea, although he had concerns about world-building and tones differences between the two series (as Detective Conan is a mystery action series, while Pretty Cure! is a magical girl franchise), as well as the world-building rules of Detective Conan in particular. When the script is shown to Gosho Aoyama, he said that things such as "magic and fantasy" do not exist in Detective Conan universe.
Masaya Aramaki admits that the staff had difficulties handling the transformation aspects of PreCure! within the Conan universe, and how far they could incorporate fantasy. He said that they managed to explore options and admits that it was pretty fun working in the crossover special. The staff did end up placing stuff for the viewers to feel they're watching Detective Conan in Star Detective PreCure! episode, out of respect for the series.[3]
Trivia
- This marks the first time Kaitou Kid have a major role in an anime-original episode.
- Despite the restrictions that certain characters cannot be used in anime-original episodes, this seems to be an exception as it is considered as an "special episode".
