I like the Reisen (zero fighter)!!<br>[T/N: The Reisen is actually the Mitsubishi A6M Zero, designated as the Navy Type 0 Carrier Fighter. It's a naval aircraft ... so I guess it's related to battleships, somehow.]

+

Q30: I would like to write a love letter to Vermouth. To which address can I send it?

+
Q68: After Sonoko removes her hairband, her hair's going to stick up, isn't it?<br>A: It's not going to. (laughs)

A: She was the one who proposed.  
+
Q75: Why does Yumi let everyone call her Yumi-san?<br>A: Come to think of it, you're right.<br>[T/N: Technically, Japanese hierarchy or something would result in her being addressed as Miyamoto-san.]
  
Q38: By marrying Minami-san, you immerged yourself in Detective Conan for all your life, right?

Q42: Do you have a cute nickname for eachother?
+
Q84: Have you ever wanted to write the script for a Detective Conan movie?<br>A: Very much so. (laughs)
  
A: I sometimes call her 'Takayama-san' (laugh)
+
Q85: Have you got any movie character you particularly like?<br>A: I liked Moriya Teiji from the first movie. He was modeled off Moriarty, so only using him in the movie was a bit of waste.
  
Q43: What do you plan on doing for your honeymoon trip?
+
Q86: Will Conan do a collaboration anime with any other character other than Lupin?<br>A: Perhaps in this Autumn's special episode? Perhaps not? (haha)

+
Q90: Why do we never see Miyano Atsushi's face?<br>A: You might get to see it eventually.

Q91: When will Ran find out about Conan's identity? Is there a chance that the whole thing will end without her ever knowing?<br>A: Hmm... don't we all wonder.
  
Q46: To which level are you happy?
+
Q92: What does Vermouth actually want?<br>A: Only Vermouth knows (haha)
  
A: A normal level, I think... Well, I don't know (laugh)
+
Q93: I think that if Conan's glasses had the ability to take photos, it'd be so much more convenient!<br>A: This is a great idea! (laughs)
  
Q47: When will the fourth volume of Magic Kaito be released?
+
Q94: What's Conan's height?<br>A: He's around 18kg.<br>(The question really does ask Height, but Gosho switched to weight)
  
A: It's out!
+
Q95: Hondou Eisuke's going to reappear one day, isn't he?<br>A: Probably?
  
Q48: Are the elements introduced in the movies (like Eri being a bad cook, Kogoro having a precise aim and being acrophobic...) also true in the manga?
+
Q96: Is Detective Matsuda going to reappear?<br>A: My editor wants him to appear.
  
A: I don't know for the acrophobia thing... But for the rest, yes.

+
Q99: What's going to happen to Gin?<br>A: Yes, what is going to happen to Gin?
  
Q50: Is there a female detective?
+
Q100: Is Haibara going to get together with Mitsuhiko?<br>A: Who knows?
  
A: No female detective has appeared yet, but...
+
Q101: Which of Professor Agasa’s inventions would you like to have? And how would you use it?<br>A: The stun-gun wristwatch. I would put to sleep by boss. (laugh)
  
Q51: When will you a draw new chapters of Magic Kaito?
+
Q102: Aoyama-sensei, you should have your hometown be the setting for a case!<br>A: In Tottori? It's very peaceful there, so it's unlikely to ever have a locked room mystery.
  
A: Editor in chief...!!
+
Q103: If Aoyama-sensei could choose a codename for himself, what would you choose?<br>A: Doburoku, or something.<br>(濁酒(ドブロク) is unrefined sake)
  
Q52: The magician who taught Yukiko how to disguise herself was Toichi, right?

+
Q106: In Volume 11, File 8, page 136, the sound effects for Conan-kun's footsteps is 'トコトラ(tokotora).' What does that mean?<br>A: It's a typographical error. (laughs)
  
A: What?!

Q55: When will the final confrontation against the Organization take place? Conan will win, right!?
+
Q110: Were Conan's elementary school registration papers faked?<br>A: Probably, Professor Agasa ... (mystery)
  
A: Keep reading the manga!
+
Q111: Any dramas you're into recently?<br>A: I've been watching Shitsuren Chocolatier recently as a reference for romance stories. (laughs)<br>[T/N: The drama is about this guy who looks up to his senior in school, and has a one-sided love for her. He's a chocolatier, so he dreams of making the perfect chocolate for her.

Q57: You still haven't drawn a childhood story with Shinichi and Ran?
+
Q114: I'm born in 1994, which is the same year the series started! Instead of a question ... I'll just wish it good luck! Detective Conan, please don't ever end. (laughs)<br>A: G-Got it! (laughs)

+
Q108: In the finale, I think Conan will be fatally wounded by Gin.<br>A: (laughs) Eh? And that's the end?

Q124: Which do you not want to get in a fight with, Sera or Ran?<br>A: Both ... Well, Ran will have a panty flash moment, so it's not all bad; but if it were Sera's, it would be nothing but pain, so please give me a break.

Q67: Hi, Aoyama-sensei! Even though I can't exactly say "Please tell me who the Boss of the Black Organization is!", please at least tell me their gender!
+
Q46: Is the reason that Mitsuhiko's really clever that he's really something like a third year middle school student who came across the Organisation's secrets and made to swallow that pill?<br>A: No way! (laughs)
  
A: Ehh~~ (laughs)
+
Q47: Please tell us how the Kudo couple met!<br>A: It's explained in a special!
  
Q68: After Sonoko removes her hairband, her hair's going to stick up, isn't it?
+
Q48: Will you draw a story explaining why Takagi wanted to become a police officer?<br>A: Do you want me to draw it? (laugh)
  
A: It's not going to. (laughs)
+
Q49: How clued in to Conan is Detective Takagi? Also, what does he think about Conan?<br>A: I guess he probably thinks he's a bright young boy, but probably doesn't suspect him even the tinyest bit.
  
Q69: Who's older, Megure or Agasa?
+
Q50: The Organization has a "very secret" plan which started half a century ago. Are the Black Organization and the Pacific War connected?<br>A: What~? Do you think that these two are related?
  
A: I think it's Agasa.
+
Q51: Who is the Organization's boss? You can just say a hint.<br>A: Hint: It's not Agasa!
  
Q 70: Will you write for us a case based around Ran's birthday sometime soon?
+
Q52: Could you draw a showdown between the original Kaito Kid, Toichi Kuroba, and Yusaku Kudo?<br>A: I would like to draw it!
  
A: I'd like to.
+
Q53: Who drives the fastest between Sato and Yukiko?<br>A: Sato, because she's the White Witch (laugh)
  
Q71: How can I become like Miwako?
+
Q54: What good thing has happened to you recently?<br>A: Bismarck came out~!! I’m super happy!!<br>(It’s about KanColle.)
  
A: The only way is to put in effort!!
+
Q55:Please give the series a happy end, with Shuichi Akai and Jodie getting back together, and draw what happens after they do (For example, with Akai's cooking skills, he'd be an elite FBI Agent by day, but when he comes home, he's actually a family man who's better at housekeeping than Jodie, maybe?).<br>A: That wouldn't be interesting! (laughs)
  
Q72: Does Conan like Haibara?
+
Q56: Will there be Shinichi and Ran's wedding at the end of the manga?<br>A: What's going to happen? Look forward to it (laugh)
  
A: I'll leave it to your imagination.
+
Q57: Gin's not going to really turn out to be a good guy, is he?<br>A: No way! (roars with laughter)
  
Q73: Please let Kinukawa Kazuki appear again!
+
Q58: What do you think of the 'wall slam' technique that's popular in Shoujo manga lately? I'd like it if you did a 'wall slam' scene in Detective Conan.
 +
<br>[Note: A 'wall slam' (kabe don) is a situation 1) where a boy corners a girl by slamming his hand against a wall with his body over her, trapping her, usually in a romance scene; or 2) when someone gets so angry out of frustration that they want to punch a wall]<br>A: I've drawn Ran doing a 'telephone pole slam' on Shinichi before, actually...
  
A: A child talent/actor like him is very busy. (laughs)
+
Q59: I like black-skinned people. I really want Hattōri Heiji, Kyōgoku Makoto, and Amuro Tōru to appear together in the manga. If applying the tone is troublesome, you could just make two of them appear at the same time. Please, Aoyama-sensei!<br>A: Now, with computer painting, applying the tone is easy; but drawing them is bothersome, so… (laugh)
  
[T/N: He's from File 401, the kid who wants to find his mom.]
+
Q60: What do you think will happen to Shinichi and Ran after graduating high-school?<br>A: That's something you're going to have to wait and see! (laughs)
  
Q74: Is Miyamoto Yumi as good as Satou at fights?
+
Q61: Dr. Araide hardly shows up at all, give him some appearances!<br>A: Oh, I forgot about him! Sorry! (laughs)
  
A: No.
+
Q62: Are Sera-san and Haibara cousins?<br>A: Stop asking in a roundabout way, I'm not going to get tricked! (laughs)
  
Q75: Why does Yumi let everyone call her Yumi-san?
+
Q63: Is Sera-san going to be a key person in the conclusion? Also, will she ever become more feminine? (laughs)<br>A: Her mother has huge boobs... So I think she'll have a nice body in the end! (laughs)
  
A: Come to think of it, you're right.
+
Q64: I want to see a collaboration between Sera-chan and Hakuba-kun!<br>A: You do? How come? (laughs)
  
[T/N: Technically, Japanese hierarchy or something would result in her being addressed as Miyamoto-san.]
+
Q65: Were you the one to chose Noriko Hidaka as the voice actor for Sera, or is it a member of the production company who chose her?<br>A: I chose her, because I like her!
  
Q: 76: Does Miyano Elena's name come from the German reading of Irene?
+
Q66: Does Sera-chan never show two doubled-teeth at once?<br>A: Do you want her to?
  
A: That's right, it does.
+
Q67: Does Sera know about the Black Org?<br>A: She doesn't know.
  
Q77: I want to see Kogoro and Eri get back together. (laughs) Is that possible?
+
Q68: Does Sera have a boyfriend?<br>A: No! But there is someone... (laugh)
  
A: Ah, yeah. I want them to get back together too. (laughs)
+
Q69: Please tell me if there is anything surprising about Akai, Amuro, and Sera! (Q42 and Q69 are related.)<br>A: They're all tone deaf, or something (laughs)<br>[Note: Later on in the thread, someone clarifies that the original says オンチ in both cases, which in that context can mean anything from being tone deaf, or completely hopeless with directions. Gosho never used kanji to write that word, so it could mean that they're all horrible at something.]
  
Q 78: Why does Akai always wear a hat?
+
Q70: Does Akai-san have a gun he really likes? He’s always using the one he stole from a Black Org member… When he shot Gin with a rifle, what kind of rifle was it?<br>A: I should ask my assistant Yamagishi.
  
A: Because that's his trademark.
+
Q71: Akai-san has repeated that he would "give his life to protect someone". Is it a foreshadowing for his death?<br>A: Stay tuned!
  
Q79: If Satou sleeps on a bed, does this mean that she has a western-style room?
+
Q72: Before Akai came to Japan in Volume 29, did he investigate or solve any cases as an FBI agent in America? I'm curious about what happened during the two years Akai was in America after he left the BO.<br>A: He investigated normal cases and also cases involving the BO. As for why/how Akai became an FBI agent, I can't tell you right now. (laughs)
  
A: It's a western-style room indeed.
+
Q73: Does Akai-san like kids?<br>A: He has come to like them (laugh)
  
Q80: In the first file, did Gin and Vodka pay their entrance fees to Tropical Land?
+
Q74: Could someone like Akai be real?<br>A: No, it's impossible (laugh)
  
A: I think Vodka likely told the cashier, "Two adult tickets." and paid for them.
+
Q75: Does Shuichi Akai have back pain?<br>A: Why? (laughs)
  
Q81: What is the secret to Vermouth's agelessness?
+
Q76: If you went on a date with Shuichi Akai, where do you think he'd take you?<br>A: He'd probably keep driving for the whole thing.
  
A: Please solve this mystery.
+
Q77: What types of women do Shuichi Akai and Tooru Amuro like?<br>A: Let's see... Akai would like someone who can have a controlling aura without saying a word. And Amuro would like someone who doesn't mind him talking all the time.
  
Q82: Who buys clothing for Conan, and where?
+
Q78: I want a real Subaru Okiya to appear, one that isn't Shuichi Akai in disguise, Yusaku Kudo in disguise, or anyone at all in disguise. Is that an impossible request?<br>A: I guess it is...
  
A: Probably Ran?
+
Q79: Is Akai Okiya?<br>A: Sorry, please go read the manga.
  
Q 83: Will Kyogoku Makoto ever appear in a movie?
+
Q80: Will Chiba be married?<br>A: Will he? (laugh)
  
A: Oh, I forgot about him. I'd like him to appear (haha).
+
Q81: How much money does the BO make annually? Is it more than what you make?<br>A: Leave me alone!
  
Q84: Have you ever wanted to write the script for a Detective Conan movie?
+
Q82: Does Inspector Yamato have stubble [bushouhige] because he thinks it's fashionable? Or just because he thinks it's a pain to shave?<br>A: He has stubble because he's a commander [bushou]. (laughs)
  
A: Very much so. (laughs)
+
Q83: I want you to do a story about Teitan Primary's Culture Festival! I'd like to see Conan-kun acting in a play if you did.<br>A: What? You want to see that?
  
Q 85: Have you got any movie character you particularly like?
+
Q84: Who decided wich character owns wich car?<br>A: I decided for Subaru's RX-7 and 360, but it's Yamagishi who decided for the other cars.
  
A: I liked Moriya Teiji from the first movie. He was modeled off Moriarty, so only using him in the movie was a bit of waste.
+
Q85: I want to see Heiji Hattori vs Kaito Kid!!<br>A : You want it~?
  
Q 86: Will Conan do a collaboration anime with any other character other than Lupin?
+
Q86: If you put the first kanji of Heiji's and Kazuha's name together, it makes the word "peace" (和平). Did you do it on purpose?<br>A: I didn't do it on purpose, but I like it!
  
A: Perhaps in this Autumn's special episode? Perhaps not? (haha)
+
Q87: While solving all the problems in Conan, will the mystery on Kaito's father getting killed get solved in the mean time as well?<br>A: They won't be solved at the same time! Moreover, he didn't get killed!
  
Q87: When will you come to Osaka?
+
Q88: Eisuke Hondo hasn't reappeared yet?<br>A: Not for the moment, but he's going to be interesting!
  
A: I'm looking forward to it! (When I do, I must remember to visit Ebisu Bridge ...)
+
Q89: Why are there red bricks on the covers of the volumes?<br>A: The design department decided it.
  
Q88: What kind of manga do you want to draw after the conclusion of Detective Conan?
+
Q90: In Detective Conan, who is like Aoyama-sensei?<br>A: Kogoro Mori.
  
A: An adventure story like Journey to the West. Science fiction isn't bad either.
+
Q91: Is Ran better in karate than she was before?<br>A: If there was karate at the Olympics, she would get the Gold Medal (laugh)
  
Q89: At the beginning, Ran's hairstyle didn't have its 'horn', but gradually grew to have one. Is it something you eventually decided on while drawing her?
+
Q92: I hope women characters are going to give kicks in the crotch of other characters!<br>A: Agent Sato does it very well!
  
A: Yes.
+
Q93: What is Ran and Shinichi's bloodtype? Isn't it type B?<br>A: Think what you want, choose wichever you prefer.
  
Q 90: Why do we never see Miyano Atsushi's face?
+
Q94: I want to know what Ran does in her everyday life at home. When Kogoro and Conan are at home, what does Ran do?<br>A: Do you want to know? <3
  
A: You might get to see it eventually.
+
Q95: How old will be Ran when she'll get married?<br>A: Do you want to know? <3 (laugh)
  
Q 91: When will Ran find out about Conan's identity? Is there a chance that the whole thing will end without her ever knowing?
+
Q96: When will there be a development in Shinichi and Ran's relationship? Ran only got scared after the confession in London... And what about Heiji and Kazuha?<br>A: Please look forward to it!
  
A: Hmm... don't we all wonder.
+
Q97: Please make Ran cuter! The manga series needs more Ran!<br>A: I've got a lot of Ran stuff I should draw someday soon. (laughs)
  
Q 92: What does Vermouth actually want?
+
Q98: I want to see Ran wearing a kimono in the manga.<br>A: It's really complicated to draw, except when I draw it with colors (laugh)
  
A: Only Vermouth knows (haha)
+
Q99: Tell me how I could look like Ran!<br>A: You would have to do a horn in your hair. So you should just drop it (laugh)
  
Q93: I think that if Conan's glasses had the ability to take photos, it'd be so much more convenient!
+
Q100: My friend told me that the Boss is Shinichi!<br>A: Please tell your friend: Well done, it's false.
  
A: This is a great idea! (laughs)
+
Q101: Everyday I'm unhappy. How could I be happy?<br>A: Don't think that being rich means being happy (laugh)
  
Q94: What's Conan's height?
+
Q102: Hello, Aoyama-sensei! My name is Ken because my father is a fan of Hokuto no Ken. I really like Detective Conan so I want to name to name my child after Conan, but Conan is written in Japanese, and my name in Chinese. I don't know what to choose.<br>A: Choose what you prefer (laugh)
  
A: He's around 18kg.
+
Q103: What do you take the more care of when drawing the manga recently?<br>A: I want the criminal to be the less suspicious than possible.
  
(The question really does ask Height, but Gosho switched to weight)
+
Q104: Who are your favorite characters?<br>A: I like them all.
  
Q 95: Hondou Eisuke's going to reappear one day, isn't he?
+
Q105: Are the lines under Akai's, Sera's, and The Sister From Outside The Domain's eyes supposed to be dark circles? Or are they just eyelashes?<br>A: They're dark circles. They all have threatening gazes.
  
A: Probably?
+
Q106: I want you to draw Amuro-kun with dots as eyes!<br>A: Huh? Didn’t I already draw that? (laugh)
  
Q 96: Is Detective Matsuda going to reappear?
+
Q107: If you were involved in a case, Aoyama-sensei, would you try and deduce it?<br>A: Sometimes I think, 'Well, if this happened...' but if it came down to it, it'd seem too indecent...
  
A: My editor wants him to appear.
+
Q108: I've heard that you wanted to draw anime when you were young. I hope you'll draw until you die!<br>A: Oh, leave me alone! (laugh)
  
Q97: Is there a pairing that Aoyama-sensei has to draw no matter what?
+
Q109: I think Aoyama-sensei will probably grow some beards, will you also add beards while drawing your eggplant-like self-portraits?<br>A: Then it wouldn't be an eggplant anymore!
  
A: Probably Chiba. Once, all my assistants were adamant about me being unfair to him. (laughs)
+
Q110: Did you like deducing stuff before? Is it because of this that you are that skilled?<br>A: Before, I liked going to the library to read books about Sherlock Holmes.
  
Q98: I want to read a showdown between Kuroba Kaito and Conan-kun!
+
Q111: Have you always liked mysteries, Aoyama-sensei? If so, what was the first thing that got you interested in mysteries?<br>A: I've been interested in them ever since I read the Sherlock Holmes story 'The Dancing Men' in my primary school library.
  
A: If there is one, it'll be pretty interesting.
+
Q112: I know you were born in Tottori Prefecture, Aoyama-sensei, but do you write Heiji's Osaka Accent by yourself too?<br>A: I have one of the editors who's from Osaka edit it afterward.
  
Q 99: What's going to happen to Gin?
+
Q113: How many times do you go to Tottori each year?<br>A: Once, in January.
  
A: Yes, what is going to happen to Gin?
+
Q114: Well done Sensei, for the Tottori Conan Airport!<br>A: Ah, yes!
  
Q 100: Is Haibara going to get together with Mitsuhiko?
+
Q115: The Boss = Ano Kata = the first letter of his nickname = A, just as in "Aoyama Gosho", don't you think?<br>A: Interesting! But no.
  
A: Who knows?
+
Q116: Who is your favorite producer currently?<br>A: It was Kurosawa before, now, it's Uchida.
  
Q102: Aoyama-sensei, you should have your hometown be the setting for a case!
+
Q117: Who’s your favorite movie director?<br>A: Long ago it was Kurosawa Akira. Now it’s Uchida Kenji I guess?
  
A: In Tottori? It's very peaceful there, so it's unlikely to ever have a locked room mystery.
+
Q118: Which character tires you the most to draw?<br>A: Kid!
  
Q103: If Aoyama-sensei could choose a codename for himself, what would you choose?
+
Q119: When I draw, I don't manage to draw well hands... Any tip for me?<br>A: Look at your own hands.
  
A: Doburoku, or something.
+
Q120: Conan has been in many cities, and many times in Osaka. I live in Osaka, and I'm really happy each time I recognize some buildings! Are you interested in Osaka?<br>A: Yes, because it's near Tottori.
  
(濁酒(ドブロク) is unrefined sake)
+
Q121: Wich character was the hardest to design?<br>A: It took a lot of effort to find Sera's design.

+
Q136: Do you mix curry with rice?<br>A: No I don't.

Q 113: Are you going to write a little bit of story after they work out who's the leader of the BO? As a fan, I'd like to see a bit of what comes after!

Q20: Does Conan-kun like Fluke Fin [Engawa] Sushi?

+
Q99: In the burning tent episode… Wakasa Rumi gripped something like a shogi piece from over her trousers. Is she related to the Haneda Kouji case? And she was looking at the list of persons administered APTX4869… So that’s why I (thought) so.<br>A: I see.

+
Q105: Did Miyano Elena become a silent and gloomy woman after she joined the organization?<br>A: Wrong. She’d always been shy and a poor talker.
  
A: Maybe he bought it secondhand off a manga artist who hardly ever gets to drive his car, and repainted it. (laughs) Wait, that's me!
+
Q106: Why is the image of Elena-san different before and after joining the organization?<br>A: She looked like that to her husband and Amuro, but she was originally like that (shy and silent).

A: Boxing.
+
Q108: I feel sorry for how the FBI manipulated Kir. Kir won’t find happiness?<br>A: Poor her, yes. (laughs)
  
Q38: What Amuro blond when he was born? Is he half-blooded?
+
Q109: Why was Kir (working) as an announcer?<br>A: (She) found out she had the talent for that.
  
A: Maybe (laugh)

A: Probably not all three of them at once, but I really want to have a showdown between any two of them!
+
Q120: Was Sherry going out with Gin when she was in the organization?<br>A: I think that (Gin) isn’t Haibara’s type, though. (laughs)
  
Q44: Kyogoku-san is really happy compared to how he used to be in the past. Is it because he found love?
+
Q121: How old is Tequila?<br>A: Let’s make of it a mystery.

+
Q122: Tequila was pitiful, yes?<br>A: Huh? Is that so?

 +
A: No, they don’t because they are too shy (laughs)
  
A: Hint: It's not Agasa!
 
  
Q52: Could you draw a showdown between the original Kaito Kid, Toichi Kuroba, and Yusaku Kudo?
+
Q2: When will Shinichi and Ran meet again?<br>
 +
A: I wonder about that (laughs)
  
A: I would like to draw it!
 
  
Q53: Who drives the fastest between Sato and Yukiko?
+
Q3: Shinichi-kun thought "Of course not... Just on the cheek" at the Kiyomizu temple, but will there be a kiss scene not on the cheek with Ran-chan after?<br>
 +
A: Well... Who knows? (laughs)
  
A: Sato, because she's the White Witch (laugh)
 
  
Q54: What good thing has happened to you recently?
+
Q4: Sometimes Shinichi has nose bleeds when he sees Ran in some circumstances (like wearing a bikini... etc). Will he have the same problem after they are couples now?<br>
 +
A: I don’t think so (laughs)
  
A: Bismarck came out~!! I’m super happy!! (It’s about KanColle.)
+
 +
Q5: Does Shinichi still have the sakura that Ran gave him when they were kids? (Chapter 924)<br>
 +
A: It would be good if he kept it
  
Q55:Please give the series a happy end, with Shuuichi Akai and Jodie getting back together, and draw what happens after they do (For example, with Akai's cooking skills, he'd be an elite FBI Agent by day, but when he comes home, he's actually a family man who's better at housekeeping than Jodie, maybe?).
+
 +
Q6: Before Shinichi went on his date with Ran to Tropical Island, Did he search a lot of tourist guides and print that park on his mind by reading it over and over again?<br>

Q56: Will there be Shinichi and Ran'z wedding at the end of the manga?
+
Q7: Will the time come that Shinichi realizes the meaning of the letters that Ran sent him “XXX”?<br>

 +
A: A lot of things (laughs)
  
Q58: What do you think of the 'wall slam' technique that's popular in Shoujo manga lately? I'd like it if you did a 'wall slam' scene in Detective Conan.

 +
A: That's right.
  
Q59: I like black-skinned people. I really want Hattōri Heiji, Kyōgoku Makoto, and Amuro Tōru to appear together in the manga. If applying the tone is troublesome, you could just make two of them appear at the same time. Please, Aoyama-sensei!

Q62: Are Sera-san and Haibara cousins?
 
  
A: Stop asking in a roundabout way, I'm not going to get tricked! (laughs)
+
Q14: what is the food that Ran makes that Shinichi likes?<br>
 +
A: He will like anything if it’s made by her (laughs)
  
Q63: Is Sera-san going to be a key person in the conclusion? Also, will she ever become more feminine? (laughs)

 +
A: Yes he does <3

Q66: Does Sera-chan never show two doubled-teeth at once?
