It's been around since when, 95 or earlier? I have the Taiwanese version manga from vol 35 to 60. I want the Japanese version though, sometimes reading it in another language doesn't really make much sense sometimes X_X
I have all the movies as well, which I watch from time to time. My favourite one is Crossroad In The Ancient Capital, it has a really nice plot and a good case, on top of that a cute little sub-plot and I personally love the Kyoto accent, it sounds so gentle and lovely. <3
I really relate to the character Haibara Ai to myself, so I have a special liking for her, she was willing to sacrifice herself for her friends by reading the timer on the bomb in Count Down To Heaven. Aside from that, I like it when she displays any sort of emotion apart from anger and being totally serious and sometimes even bossy. The way she likes little animals is just cute <3
The live action version has been released in Japan, and I have seen it myself. The cases are nicely put together, but I can't really say much for the actors they chose for life action. I like who they chose for Sherry, she fit the role pretty well. It's a big mistake to cast children into Part 2, because the lil guy looks retarded with the big glasses, and the girl for Ai-chan's role looks weird. The only thing that saved it for me was that they used the original voices from the anime and dubbed over the kids voices... Cases are good, just that the acting and casting for any anime adapted live-action dramas always set out to disappoint fans.
What I have done though, is that I have played the GBA game to Detective Conan, where you have to go around the place like Mario and collect riddle cards and try to solve the riddles. It was pretty fun, and the riddles are very Dr. Agasa style. I have downloaded another game but I haven't really got around to playing it.
Nice series, been around for 10 years, love to try and guess who is the killer/culprit, and I wonder when it ends... XD
