Conan realizes that the shapes on the treasure map really refer to the shapes of neon signs near Touto Tower. It wouldn't make sense for someone who does not speak Japanese to make a reference to a Japanese named street, but rather draw pictures of recognizable objects they saw.

    Manga to anime change

    • An entire portion of the story is left out of the anime where Ran takes Conan, Genta, Ayumi and Mitsuhiko to Touto Tower. She recalls a time when she and Shinichi visited the tower and when he bought her a cold drink, which he put up to her cheek. Conan does the same thing, which prompts her to ask him about his true identity (as the manga version takes place after the The Shinkansen's Bomb Case). Conan responds by stating that he is Kamen Yaiba.

    Remastered version

    On June 6, 2009, a remastered version of the case was aired.
