That's the 225 dilbert mentioned.

what? It was essentially just "dead person wrote text, WHAT DOES IT MEAN?!" and nothing else. Other than the motive being a ripoff of another, much better case.

"The Evidence that Didn't Disappear" (233-234) I think is also underrated. It's a fun DB case with a nice change of pace and hilarious Haibara comments (when she says Doyle will follow her in death just like Marie-Antoinette's dog did).

After looking through some pictures and videos, I finally remembered which episode I was going to say. The Library Murder Case. It's one of the old DB cases, but it was still rather complex and did have a certain creep factor to it.

COMPLETELY AGREE!!!! Oh my  goodness my brothers and I literally screamed when that monkey-faced murder appeared out of the shadows!

And stashing the body on top of the elevator? GENIUS. I always tell this urban legend when I'm with friends and we're in a new building and we're riding an elevator  >:D

haha, when I just started rewatching, I couldn't finish this episode at night, it just creeped the h*ll out of me. So I went to sleep and watched it in the morning.

I personally love how he looks like a cross between an old Scooby Doo villian and Andross from Star Fox 64.

418: I only saw this once but it was really fun, if a less interesting version of 43.
366-367: Pretty much no one talks about this case like...ever. Some really nice character related scenes as well as a really good poison case.
571-572: Easily the best Detective Boys case in forever, and one that reminds me why I liked those cases in the first place. Not to mention references to a bunch of different cases, Okiya Subaru's pointless cameo #12, Conan hanging up on Kobayashi mid-sentence and a cool little story with Heiji secretly helping the DB.


Great call on 180-181. This is another one where they did a great creating an atmosphere (reminds me of 88-89 in some ways).

180 is actually the first Detective Conan episode I ever watched. Oh, the memories...
