Detective Conan


Well...since I've updated my blog...I guess it's time to update my blog picture. This one is of Detective Conan. Or should I say Jimmy Kudo. -grins- He's the main character of my favorite new show "Case Closed". The premise is that Jimmy Kudo, a 17 year old detective (brilliant bloody detective) got slipped an experimental poison after eavesdropping on some very illegal business and was turned into a little kid. With help from his neighbor, Dr. Agasa, he is now living with Jimmy's best friend (and crush) Rachel Moore, whose father just happens to be a bumbling detective with no work whatsoever. With Conan's help, Richard Moore is now a huge detective, taking credit for many of Conan's solved cases. Conan struggles to seem like a normal child, hanging out with Amy (the girl in the picture), George, and Mitch who call themselves the "Jr. Detective League". The mysteries are fantastic in this show. It's mostly murder, but every now and then they throw something in there that surprises the hell out of you. The last one I saw was about a supposed "Haunted Mansion", but just turned out to be a long unsolved murder that...guess who...solves it. It's a great show. I like trying to figure out all the clues before Conan does. He's really sharp. It's, obviously, anime, which is Japanese, so...sometimes I can't catch the clues because they're written in Japanese. But, I get a real kick when I figure out something before Conan does. That's only happened twice now, and I've been watching for about 30 shows. That's pretty good for a little anime show that comes on Adult Swim at 4:30 in the morning. But, the clues aren't so outrageous that it doesn't make sense; that's what's so great. Because you actually can figure them out if you keep your wits about you. It's absolutely wonderful. I recommend taping some episodes sometimes. Really worth it. I might buy the DVDs soon.
