Conan 599 (A Friend of Justice) Discussion Thread

This was not terrible. I think. I like that it was different. I think. I approve of Ran actually doing something.

Best part was APTX4869 version of Chiba. That needs to actually be true, so we can avoid horrible stuff happening later.

Number of songs from 2007 soundtrack: 3

was waiting for this thread to pop up \o/

but yeah, it may have not been the best episode, but I really liked how different it was from other episodes. Conan really felt pretty unnecessary at the end this time, not that that's a bad thing.

(psst akemi, probably should edit that considering that it's manga-only stuff that hasn't gotten into the show yet)

there but considering the pace of the anime, it should be shown within 4 months

The way they explain the trick was confusing -- so much that my Japanese friend (a salaryman) had to draw a picture for him to understand and reexplain it to me.
As such I shall share his diagram:

Probably the best one part AO of the year (considering the other AOs, it's still nothing extraordinary), they changed the formula a bit, the trick was not that bad (the guy not realising that he couldn't see the body from the train was stupid though), the confession lasted more than the 10-20 seconds of the last few AOs and it actually had a bit of emotional depth. However it was still awfully predictable.

PS : Skateboarding Conan + old soundtrack music !

If they really wanted that to be old school they should have done that song Boku ga Iru is based off of, like they used to all the time during the "CONAN GOES AROUND TOWN TO FIND SOME CLUES" scenes.

Edit: Someone pointed out this pointless but amusing fact.

"Hey i noticed something! The crime scene is located under the same bridge ive seen in the rainbow bag episode! looks like they put fences around the river ever since "

It was something different, but didn't find it very compelling. After 5 minutes was getting bored and half paying attention.

I dunno, I didn't think it was that different, We've had episodes like this before.

I will give them they used Ran well, but there was just no emotion in it, the who was so obvious it was painful, and the why was twice as obvious, and the how was bland.
