Hey there! I tried searching the forum a lot but I couldn't find a clear answer, and there was maaaany search results to view, so I didn't think that searching the forum could be the best solution to get my answer (There was 70 pages...)

And now I have great hatred with the wiki, for the first time I opened it I learned that Shuu wasn't dead, and the second time (before searching your forums) I learned that Subaru is Akai... And that's too much to burn honestly, so here goes my question:

In the 2009 version of the special Lupin vs Conan movie, at its very end while they were in the car and going to that girl's friend that will get Conan into the borders of Japan again... How did they know that he was Kudo Shinichi? I tried replaying some minutes before that, but I couldn't get any clear sign... I even thought that Mouri was Kaito Kid lol!

@MI550: it's never stated. But it'd seem they did their investigation behind the scenes and maybe Lupin was the one who put two and two together.

I got a question about the characters of the Detective Koshien murder case. I noticed two of them, Hiroo Tsuchio and Saguru Hakuba, had a color in their names (Hiroo = Scarlet and for "Haku" the kanji for white was used). I wonder, is the same true for the others?
Renzo Koya
Natsuki Koshimizu
Junya Tokitsu

Nope. And actually, Tsuchio Hiroo (槌尾広生) doesn't have a color in his name either. For one thing, scarlet is hiiro in romaji, not hiroo. For another, even if his name was Hiiro, it would only count as a color if the kanji for scarlet was used, since Japanese is full of homophobes (words that sound the same but are written differently).

Now I see, I misremembered the Japanese titles of the Scarlet episodes.

Quick question: has it ever been definitively confirmed that Conan knows that Sera and Akai are siblings? I'm sure he's guessed since they look alike and Sera mentioned having a dead older brother, but does Conan know for sure?

you mean homophones?
I'm pretty sure that homophobes are different things O_o
N and B are pretty close on the keyboard

Spoiler:

Technically no, Since he actually had to ask about her family's original family name, its unlikely that Shuuichi ever told him.
Beyond that Masumi has given him enough information to figure it out, but Conan often seems like he doesn't care much about
the things she say other than where he originally met her and who the identity of the Mystery Sister from outside the Domain will be.
He doesn't even seem to care that Masumi has older brothers and has really given no thought at all to her middle brother situation.

Our cbox discussion from the other day about LGBTs in DC must have stayed in Fuji's mind hence the typo.

Yes, that. I mean, pretty sure Japan is full of homophobes as well, but that's not what I meant, obviously. XD

That was the password for his spare phone—the one he used to defuse Ran's suspicions about him being Shinichi in Episode 400.

Does anyone remember the episode with Kogoro's mentor? The one that was like "there's always a woman behind a crime!" He said that Conan looked like more or a detective than Mori did. The case was the one where this actor died of cyanide poisoning and it had something to do with the star prop above them having cyanide on it... please help! it will take a while to sort through all those episodes...

That would be Episode 67. "Stage Actress Murder Case".

That was such a fun filler. Conan and the old guy mocking the cheesiness of the play is hilarious.

Spoiler:

Now he does—File 937 was the first time he acknowledged their relation. In fact, he seemed to take the story she was telling as confirmation—as in, he wasn't sure before she told the story.
