Ok, but I was asking who is the best detective in the LIST I made

[ranger]

whats with the bashing of Lunge?  I freakin loved him - he had that oddball trait with the whole typing/computer memory thing that was just awesome.  Sure he's not a perfect character, but that's what makes him great.  If you want a clean cut flawless dull character you can choose Kudo Shinichi, who's one weakness is the fact that he can't sing well, oh no.  Lunge's flaws are awesome.  He's definitely not the smartest, but probably one of the greatest characters.

And, lol L /thread

Yeah,  I completely agree with that, if we choose an intelligent character , we have to choose Shinichi ( I think that Shinichi demostrate more intelligence than "L" ) and if we have to choose a Great detective character ( Be a great detective character does not mean that it has to be the most intelligent ) It will be Inspector Lunge.
Lunge is the perfect representation of a Detective, Because detectives don´t allways resolve all of the cases in the real life, and the evolution of the character is awesome.

Amen to that brotha!

Who's Lunge ?

Lunge is the detective in the anime/manga series Monster, which is about a Japanese surgeon in Germany who saves the life of a serial killer, and the events that follow.  A very good psychological and mysterious series, I highly recommend it, not for the squimish though.  It has enough scary moments for someone who doesn't like horror to get freaked the f.u.c.(lol bypass censor)k. out.

I was always weirded out a bit by how thin his eyebrows were though.

[kentasaiba]

Isn't that the CIA-guy from NCIS?

[miikosan]

I've read Detective Academy Q, and honestly it's not that good.

So my votes go to Shinichi for this one

Spoiler:

When they were in the basement with the doll, i freaked da hype out, by far the scariest part of the series

Lunge seems surprisingly oriental for being a German inspector
