Trivia

Spoilers for The Desperate Revival and Drama Episode 13.

  Show spoilers »

• This drama episode is out of line with the currently on-going Detective Conan timeline, as it drops all mentions of Conan in Ran and Shinichi's conversation and Shinichi feeling unwell due to APTX4869's antidote wearing off.
• Episode 3 and Episode 9 seem to confirm that the drama takes place in another timeline, but if we take into account the hypothesis it doesn't then this episode has to be considered entirely an error due to The Desperate Revival's events taking place here and the end of Episode 13 stating this takes place several months before Tropical Rand. If so, Drama Episodes 3, 9, 11 and are to be considered containing errors.
• This episode has some other major Drama-Anime differences, like the Drama showing scenes with Ooba wearing the costume at the party, Megure not being there, Shinichi interrogating Sakurako in another room rather than in front of the elevator, the Drama not showing Ooba's father's face, the costume being very different, Sato recalling Yusaku's case only at the end instead of Megure doing so much earlier and Hirata being there at the end of the episode.
