    Manga to anime change

    In the manga version of the story Gin and Vodka are the masterminds of the case (rather than Okita), and they end up killing Masami Hirota/Akemi Miyano who informs Conan of the organization's existence. This would lead to Ai Haibara's appearance in the series.

    Furthermore, Ai makes a silhouetted appearance when Akemi is demanding for herself and her sister to be free of the organization, which is also omitted.

    To repair the storyline, Episode 128 The Black Organization: One Billion Yen Robbery Case was written with a similar ending to the manga version.
