Is Conan still growing?

Postby Baritsu Master » May 24th, 2011, 2:57 pm

I was wondering whether Conan , having been reset to age six, is still growing, or if he has been frozen in time. Is there proof in the text beyond the fact that Gosho has made him look slightly older than he originally did since issue one?

Well, only a few months have passed, but I do remember people saying that he was unusually small for his age. But that could just be people misjudging his age now. Doesn't really matter anyway, since the plot will be resolved within a year. :P

well, he has gotten taller in the sense that he is being drawn larger, but that is just a convention change, not a representation of actual growth.

Man will go down into the pit, and all his thoughts will perish. The uneasy consciousness, which in this obscure corner has for a brief space broken the contented silence of the universe, will be at rest. Matter will know itself no longer. 'Imperishable monuments' and 'immortal deeds,' death itself, and love stronger than death, will be as though they had never been."

It's only been "a few months" in the fiction of the series from the day he shrunk to the latest file, so not really a lot of time for him to grow much.

no one had grown since the start of DC... Ran is still 17 as well as Sonoko... all of DB is still 7 or 8...

If you're defining growing as in growing in age: Eri had her birthday.

Didn't he have trouble with opening doors/gates in the first chapter/ep or something? He must have had a really really quick growth spurt in the very beginning. LOL

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Gosho said that Conan IS infact growing. Conan used to be drawn three heads high, hence him looking adorable and not being able to open doors, but is now four heads.

Indeed. He says he changed that because children are taller these days.

True but that the episode "White Day of Betrayal" came 9 years after "The Truth behind Valentine's"-case (where in fact there should only be a one-month gap between the setting) makes it a bit awkward :D  
And between that a lot happened and there were different months like October and so on being mentioned in several cases. *confused*

I don't really see the harm in them aging by a 2 or 3 years. I wonder why Gosho insists on it not even being a year when it has been 15 in reality..

add a year then ran will be in 3rd year of high school. and she must go to field trip... and stuff!!!!

so making them older or grow from first grade into second grade will bring potential trouble
xpon is so cute...
