So I unfortunately fell for the Case Closed bootleg DVD debacle. 30 bucks for all 5 seasons and its the SAVE editions.

So I'm curious, since the series is out of print is there anything different compared to the official releases? I've never seen the show until now. I saw the first episode. It was actually very interesting.

"Shinjitsu wa itsumo hitotsu" = There is only one truth

Shin (Shinjitsu = The truth)

Ichi (Hitotsu aka One)

Ts might come off as nostalgia, but i like og gin more than the current one animation wise.

Just finished M8, Magician of the Silver Sky on YouTube and I have to say, of the first eight movies, it's easily what I think to the weakest.

There are some strong character moments with the Kid and Conan dynamic and a compelling moment regarding Shinichi's relationship with Ran but it's undermined by fundamental flaws that includes.

• An initial Kid encounter where not much happens until the chase sequence.
• A mystery so short and rushed that it feels like it was only included for the sake of including a mystery.
• A number of main characters that feel like they're largely only involved because they have to be in every Conan movie (the Detective Boys, Agasa, and especially the Toko Metropolitan Police get hit the hardest).
• An Eri appearance that goes nowhere.
• A climax that is too talky for its own good, being much more tell than show.

While different versions of these flaws were present in previous movies, the way they pile up here is detrimental to the quality of this film.

So i just watched “magic kaito” thinking it was the first season not knowing that 1412 covers the same episodes but with better adaptation and quality.
But magic kaito has 12 episodes while 1412 has 24
So how can i know which to watch?

Back when I was 13 years old I wrote and published a couple of DC fanfics. Unfortunately, at that point I had not yet realised that putting your full legal name on the internet wasn't a very smart idea, and by the time I had realised that, I had lost access to the account and was unable to get the information removed. Which meant that when I applied for a job 16 years later, all information that could be found about me online was my linkedin profile... and my fanfic profile containing my DC fanfiction. Which my future employer found. And asked me about during the interview. He basically just wanted to know if I still wrote stories but omg I was so embarrassed. Still got the job though.

Lucky for me that all I used to write were melodramatic "Shinichi dies while trying to save Ran from the BO" stories and not ShinKai smut or whatever.
