Situation

Part 1

Ran and Sonoko are getting ready to attend a huge concert by the very popular J-Pop band Two-Mix. Some hours before that, Conan and the Detective Boys go to a coffee parlor and meet a lady with sunglasses and a cap, who turns out to be the singer of the group, a woman named Minami Takayama whose voice is rather similar to Conan's.

At some point, however, Takayama gets outta the parlor and is confronted by two mysterious men in a car. She's then forcibly pushed into the backseat of the vehicle, where her partner Shiina Nagano is bound and gagged! The children witness this and notify Megure and Takagi, trying to help as much as they can to rescue the two artists.

    Remastered version

    A remastered version of this case was aired on August 22, 2015 (Part 1) and August 29, 2015 (Part 2). Unlike the other remastered episodes, where the OP/ED used are the current ones, the original OP/ED are used instead.

    Translation changes

    Anime

    • The names of the characters in the Funimation Dub are:
    • TWO-MIX - TWO-TIMES
    • Minami Takayama - Korma Delorica
    • Shiina Nagamo - Karman Santher
    • Satoshi Miyahara - Morshu Esterbaum
    • The Funimation Dub names the manager of TWO-TIMES, Orpheus.
    • Additionally, Funimation had "BREAK" completely re recorded with heavy modifications to the lyrics, with the voice actress for Conan/Korma doing the singing.

    Trivia

    • In the original (and e.g. the German version), Conan is seen at the karaoke box singing opening 1.
    • The demo tape song's lyrics seem to be based on Two-Mix's song "Living Daylights".
    • The song Two-Mix performs at the concert is "BREAK" from their "Fantastix" album. It has been dubbed into English, Galician, German and Italian in their own dubs.
    • This is the first episode with Two-Mix.
    • Interesting note: Minami Takayama from Two-Mix is also the voice of Conan Edogawa.
    • This is the second episode to include at a Karaoke Bar or Box scene, the first being Karaoke Box Murder Case, although Conan never sang in that previous episode.
    • The opening scene began with Conan singing, which backed up A June Bride Murder Case in the fact that he is tone-deaf, or can't carry a tune, although he sure sings confidently.
    • The original airdate for both parts were in November, 1997, although the demo tape song mentioned lines like "Running past the violent 1996" and "Running into the bright 1997."
    • This is the first case where Conan actually shot a culprit with his Stun-Gun Wristwatch. Every other time it was used in the past was to create a Deduction Mouthpiece. In short this is the very first time that it is used as a weapon. In Conan Edogawa Kidnapping Case, it was deactivated it, before he could use it against his kidnappers, who happened to be his own parents.
    • Surprisingly, even though Conan activated his right Power-Enhancing Kick Shoe, and ran to the door to kick with the same foot, the shoe did not break the door this time.
    • This is the episode that Conan, and the Detective Boys sang on-stage with Two-Mix.
    • This is the first time that Conan was disguised as a girl, and in this case, it was as Ayumi, who, in turn, was made to resemble him.
