Detective Conan Movie 12 Summary
Okay, notes. Once again, this includes neither Kid nor Heiji, so meh. Tried to get as much as the music right as I could, but sometimes English to Japanese to English doesn't translate very well, such as "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" somehow becoming "Lord, Who is the Joy of Hope". Still trying to figure out what the Handel is.

Watched it Subbed in Arabic, Japanese Audio. I am not fluent in either language, so there will be errors.



Detective Conan Movie 12 -Full Score of Fear- Summary
By Icka! M. Chif


It never fails. There you are, in the music classroom in a very elegant school of music, it's a nice day outside, people are talking and doing impromptu jam sessions and you're stuck inside, listening to a cellist and a pianist perform Beethoven's 'Sonata for Cello and Piano No. 3'. But it's not quite right, so you pull out your cellphone and start texting someone else, your thumb flying faster and faster as the music picks up speed. You smile as the music calms down again, and peacefully hit the 'send' button.

And the whole frikkin classroom explodes.

Which becomes an image on a web news site, with someone cackling over your death and destruction while a soprano sings Schubert's 'Ave Maria' in the background.

And thus begins a new exciting adventure that is the Detective Conan twelfth movie. Not even two minutes in and we've already got three dead bodies.

We've got the standard opening and explanation. New change to the Shonen Tantei, they're playing soccer and manage to not suck, Genta kicking the ball, Mitsuhiko catching it with his chest, Ayumi accidentally headbutting it and Conan purposely headbutting it into the goal while Ai watches.

New footage for Ai, focusing on her sister's death. Shonen Tantei walk home, Ai introduces the gadgets, sounding -incredibly- bored, and points out that Conan is really really tone deaf. She interrupts chorus so Conan can do his 'only one truth' bit in an empty theatre. (which is how many tickets he'd sell for his singing?)

Ran comes home, talking to Shin'ichi on the phone while Conan talks into his bow tie and examines the area around the bomb site, finding a piano key. While Ran talks, he notices an elderly gentleman wearing glasses watching the burnt building with a sad expression, a piano key in his hand. Conan zooms in on him with his glasses.

The gentleman walks off, Conan scribbles in a small notebook, Ran starts saying sly things to Shin'ichi, teasing him slightly before hanging up. Ran grumbles at Shin'ichi, much to her father's alarm.

Conan grumbles, put his phone away when his phone rings. He checks his pockets, finding 'Shin'ichi's' phone in one pocket, and pulling out ‘Conan's’ phone from his other pocket. It's Ran on the phone to talk to Conan.

She seems cheerful and Conan is once again taken back her sudden change of attitude. They hang up, Conan picks up the notepad he dropped and Bach’s 'Toccata and Fuge in D Minor' begins to play in the background.

MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. *cranks up the audio and parties to the harpsichord sound* Rock out.

... Anyone else remember the Sailor Moon S episode where they're running through some castle to this song? Then the villainess turns away the harpsichord to turn off the CD player? Yeah.

Anyway. Panoramic shot up, then into a Concert Hall, the inside which looks kinda like the afore mentioned Sailor Moon building and we see another old gentleman playing the harpsichord. The blue cue card introduces him as Doumoto Kazuki. It’s his Concert Hall

The Shonen Tantei, the usual suspects and the police are watching and listening him play, a few with their eyes closed. A few students and other people are listening as well, including the previous glasses wearing gentleman. Everyone is very impressed by the performance and the students rush forward talk to Kazuki.

Mouri and Ran are very impressed by Kazuki, who is Japan's top organist. Sonoko recognises the glasses wearing gentleman as Fuwa Takumi, Superintendent of Doumoto Concert Hall. She then identifies Hans Müller, a balding blond man as an organ tuner from Germany, talking to Doumoto Genya, a younger man with dark hair. Genya is also the son of Doumoto Kazuki and is also a Pianist.

Sonoko also identifies Chigusa Lala, a giggling woman with long reddish brown hair, a soprano and Kazuki's assistant. Next to her is Yamane Shion, a nervous young woman holding a violin. She's the stand-in for Kawabe Souko, the spiky haired woman who got blown up in the beginning, who used to own a Stradivarius. Also in the audience is Akiba Reiko, an elegant looking woman with long hair, who is

Kazuki instructs Shion to start playing, they're going to do Ave Maria. The officers talk and Sato shushes them. They behave. Shion looks nervous as she takes the stage, Reiko has some sort of protest, then sits down at Kazuki's comment.

The music starts playing when Kazuki angrily stops the music and interrupts. The Shonen Tantei and the girls are confused, but Conan thinks that there's something to do with the Stradivarius.

They start up again and Snap! A string breaks on the violin, cutting Shion's cheek. She quickly excuses herself. Genya and Hans talk in German and Reiko makes a mock disappointed sound and leaves, talking to the police on the way out.

Mouri talks to Megure, who informs him that they can't tell him anything, then pointedly glances down. Mouri glances down. Conan looks up innocently and laughs.

Mouri bops him on the head. Owie.

Genya explains how the Harpsicord works to the Shonen Tantei, pulling various levers to show how the notes change And then it's time for Agasa's Quiz!!!

It's as incomprehensible as usual, but as soon as Conan goes to explain, Reiko, who has returned to her seat, pipes up and explains the riddle, leading Ayumi, Genta and Mitsuhiko to the correct answer.

And it's yet another bad joke.

Takagi requests Reiko talk to the police again. Conan creeps up and listens in while they talk. Shiratori pulls part of an instrument in a plastic bag out of his jacket and asks if she knows what it is. It's the centre piece of a flute and a brief explanation about how a flute pulls apart into three pieces follows.

She seems dismayed for a bit, then tells them to do what she wants and stalks off to drink tea at her seat. Genta surprises her by wanting a drink and she turns him down. He calls her stingy.

They talk, Sonoko scolds the Shonen Tantei, Genta says something that disturbs Reiko, and she asks them to leave just as Shion returns to the stage.

They leave, Conan accidentally insulting Haibara on the way out. Yeah, he's gonna hafta be watching his back for a while.

Scene change to an outdoor park, Ran and Sonoko playing tennis. Sonoko manages to score a point off of Ran, cheers then does a Naga the White Serpent laugh. She's scary.

Ran goes to serve the ball and Sonoko makes a reference to Shin'ichi. Bad move. "Shin'ichi." Ran roars as a battle cry, going tense with a sudden battle aura, hitting the ball with great force. Sonoko looks like a deer in the headlights as the ball whizzes past her ear, and continues spinning as it imbeds itself into the chain link fence behind her.

Ran's REALLY scary.

They take a break after that, the two girls talking and Ran comments about a memory of she and Shin'ichi walking home in middle school, complete with sepia-tone flashback and old projection equipment noises.

Scene shifts back to Beika elementary where the kids are singing 'Hatena Capriccio' while Ran plays the piano. Mitsuhiko is watching Haibara as she sings. The Shonen Tantei evidently won the debate with Reiko, as she is there in a baseball cap and jacket, listening to them sing.

As the song finishes, Ran asks how she thought they did. Reiko goes through them, scolding Genta, Mitsuhiko -for staring at Haibara, Haibara and then praises Ayumi, who is her favourite because Ayumi is as cute as a bug. Which she is.

Reiko says that there's something strange with the piano, and that Conan stinks, to which Ayumi protests and everyone laughs. A challenge follows with Haibara picking out the notes that Reiko says outloud on the piano, which somehow turns into a discussion about Fuwa Takumi. Genta says screw this and sneaks off.

Reiko prepares to leave, much to the dismay of the children, when she realises there's something wrong with her bag.

There, in the corner, Genta has stolen her tea. He snickers and cheers Ikadakimasu and gulps it down over her protests. Bad Genta-kun.

And immediately starts screaming, flailing and grabbing his throat as everyone panics. It appears that someone poisoned her tea. Those bastards. Waste of good tea.

They take him to a local clinic, where Reiko stares at the thermos of tea despondently. She’s a soprano, singing is her life. If that had been her, it could have meant the end of everything.

A solemn Genta comes out and Ayumi and Mitsuhiko rush up to check on him. He says he's fine in a small soft rasp. He's lost his voice. And this is why you don't drink other people's tea.

After some discussion, they head away from the setting sun, Genta miming something... no... wait. Yeah. He's hungry.

And then! There's a truck! A large truck barrelling in their direction! Aaaaaah! They run and scream, pieces of the truck being torn off as it attempts to squeeze into much too small of a space as it chases after them. Mysterious shadow man driver snickers evilly.

Conan shouts for them to turn at the next intersection and they do, Sonoko getting a little help from Mitsuhiko's hands on her butt to make the turn and Genta picking a screaming Ayumi up.

Reiko, being the amazing listener that she is, turns the other way. This turns out to be a good thing as the truck turns after her, dripping gravel and tearing the corner a new one.

And a poor kid's video game falls prey to the truck ripping out power lines as it goes. Hope he saved recently.

Reiko is running, running, trips, falls, aaaaaah!!! Here comes the truck, and it's going to run her over when a smaller sedan comes up from the other direction to finish her off and-

Oh. Wait. It saves her. Or at least the person in the car saves her. The mysterious shadow man takes off running and Reiko gets taken home by the police.

Scene change to a glasses wearing man tiredly coming home to his apartment while Beethovan's 'Sonata for Cello and Piano No. 3' plays in the background. He sits down to relax with a smoke when teh camera pans back to show a portion of a flute.

Uh-oh. Man lights up his cigarette and BOOM.

That'll ruin your day. Like, forever.

The piano music picks up, the police show up, they talk about the deceased whose name I don't have on my translated lists, but he was a violist and died at age 36. Sato shows up looking slightly sooty, holding up the butt-end of a flute in a baggie.

Dun-dun-dun.

Piano music continues as we switch scenes to a beautiful cliff overlooking the ocean and a white hanglider swooping around. Alas, it's not the Kaitou Kid.

Camera looks into the glider's car, which shows a violin case and the mouth piece to a flute.

Whoooooooo... down goes the hangglider. Camera pans down into the water, where the man looks rather surprised to find himself dead and in the ocean. Yay, he's not the Kaitou KId.

The police, Mouri, Ran and Conan discuss stuff, touching on Lala, the red-haired soprano from before, Kawabe Souko, the spiky haired violinist. Shiratori brings up Shion as either a suspect or the next victim while Danny Elfman's Batman theme beings to play in the background.

... Wait. That's not in the credits. It's some other piece of music. Probably 'Dry Elegy' by the Katsuo Oono Band. My bad.

Conan then goes on to explain the relationship everyone has with everyone else, including the mysterious dead.

Shiratori expounds on theories, makes Takagi look slightly foolish and Megure divides the team up. Apparently Takagi's really in the doghouse, but his words spark a connection in Conan's mind.

The next morning, Conan's coming out of the Mouri residence when Ayumi, Mitsuhiko and Genta come running up, wanting to do something that has to do with Masked Yaiba. Conan turns them down, he's got to go protect someone or something and Genta expresses his true feelings in interpretive dance.

No, seriously. Interpretive Dance. It involves angry faces, heart shapes and ballet moves. Ayumi and Mitsuhiko appear to believe that this constitutes a winning argument.

Conan quickly runs off. I don't blame him.

A piano and flute duet playing 'Amazing Grace' plays as the scene switches to an apartment building, then to Reiko's room, where she's listening to the music with a sad expression. The camera pans around the room, showing a picture of a slightly younger version of her in what appears to be a wedding gown and a taller man in a tux, sitting next to a flute on top of a music stand.

The introspective period ends as Conan shows up, inviting himself in and making a general nuisance with his cute harmless act. This somehow gets into a discussion about juice, which she goes and gets him and he peeks around, spotting the photo and the flute. Reiko angrily closes a curtain over them and storms off, inviting him to leave.

Meanwhile, back at the Police Station, Sato brings in a photo of the same man in Reiko's wedding photo, him playing a flute at a theatre. This makes her either an accomplice or a possible next victim.

Later, dressed in a hooded coat, she wanders out of her apartment building, to find Conan waiting for her on the steps. She gives up and lets him follow him out of the city to a forested area where they go for a walk, the two of them enjoying the peacefulness of nature.

They pass a group of kids singing the Kamen Rider theme song, who cheerfully wish her a Good Afternoon. Conan, trailing behind, greets them and continues walking. The children think there's something weird about this, the little girl of the group making a 'Your Mom' comment that they all laugh at.

Reiko explains how the peacefulness of nature refreshes her, asking if Conan agrees. Which he does, until a gun pops out of the bushes and grazes Reiko in the ankle, causing her stumble in surprise. Conan acts as a tiny human meat shield, switching his glasses to 'Heat Vision' until he sees the gunman and zooms in, pushing her out of the way as another shot is taken an misses.

They go running helter-skelter through the forest, pausing as a large log cuts across the path. Conan spots a gunman, who stares at them through the scope and doesn't shoot. He looks up at her for a moment, then pulls her away into the forest. Strangely, no further shots are fired.

They make their way back to the apartment, to find the police waiting for her. Takagi was worried, but Reiko responds she was out on a date. Takagi's confused. Poor Takagi. This really isn’t turning out to be a good movie for him.

Reiko pretty much tells the police to piss off and goes back into her apartment, much to the police's confusion. Conan smiles and makes a suggestion that brings them to Mouri's Office.

Mouri and Megure talk, Ran brings tea for Sato and Takagi and coffee for Megure. They're over often enough she knows what they like to drink. Takagi thanks her and sets down his little notebook, which enables Conan to see what's written on it, something about someone age 28.

Mouri comes up with a conclusion that points the blame firmly on... (scene change to the inside of a large wealthy house) Genya!!!

With much finger pointing, flailing and posing, Mouri explains that it has to do with... BEETHOVEN!!!

The opening strands of Beethovan's Fifth Symphony play in the background. Ba-ba-ba-BUMMMMMmmmm

... Wait, whut?

Mouri explains the whole thing, proudly laying out his evidence and pulling out a musical CD as proof. Which works until he fails his intelligence roll and everyone in the room goes 'Huh?'

Genya tells him to stop screwing around and pulls out a photo album, opening it to a page with him and the spiky haired Souko in Paris.

Kazuki stands up and informs the police that while he's sure they're doing their best to do a good job, do they think they could do it without making asses of themselves and insulting his son?

The police and Mouri leave, looking despondent.

The next day, the theatre is getting ready for business. Mouri, Ran, Sonoko and Conan show up early, sitting down and watching as people talk in front of the stage. Sonoko does some more explinations, looking up at one of the box seats. Ran leaves to get her purse and Conan sends her a mental apology at Ran’s embarrassed look. As Ran walks up the aisle, Reiko, dressed in a lovely white gown and gloves comes down to talk to Conan and assure him that she’s fine. She lifts up the hem of the long flowing gown to show off the bandage around her ankle.

Each reassuring the other, Reiko leaves and Conan thinks. Genya and Takumi walk past and there’s some discussion when the lights suddenly go out on them. Everyone turns their attention to the stage.

Kazuki on harpsichord, Shion dressed in black on a now passionate violin and Reiko singing ‘Ave Maria’.

Goosebump time. They’re –good-.

Ran and Conan both look surprised, they seem to recognise her voice.

Outside, they run across Agasa and the Shonen Tantei. Genta’s figured out a new trick, he’s carrying around a recorder in place of his voice. Ayumi, Mitsuhiko and Genta are impressed. The others… not so much.

They walk and talk and something triggers in Conan’s brain and he goes running back to the theatre. On stage, Reiko is sitting at the harpsichord, playing one note and pulling various levers, making the sound change. Conan comes running up, they both think that the harpsichord is sounding strange.

Reiko’s trying to figure it out, there’s something definitely wrong in the pipes, she can hear the slight difference. They go to Kazuki’s room to talk to him, but he’s not there. So the two of them go for a walk, talking easily between them.

They head down to the lake’s edge, glancing around when a mysterious shadow figure appears behind them, waving a wrench. Reiko screams as she falls, alerting Conan, who gets hit and thrown a distance, losing his glasses in the process . He looks up to see a blurry figure in what might be a tux before passing out.

People start arriving to the theatre. In an upstairs office, Kazuki, Genya, Takumi and Lala are talking. Genya is highly worried that they haven’t found Reiko. Lala offers to take her place in exchange, but Kazuki turns her down.

In one of the box seats, the Shonen Tantei are similarly worried about the missing Conan. Mitsuhiko assures a worried Ayumi, who hopes everything will be all right.

A woman’s voice over the PA system makes an announcement that sends everyone into a worried panic, probably that Reiko is missing. The Shonen Tantei worry about Conan.

Meanwhile, Conan wakes up, his glasses back on his face. Looking up he sees a plastic sheet that he rips off, to find... Himself in a rowboat in the far end of the lake by a dam. An unconscious Reiko is in the boat with him.

He wakes her up and they take stock of the situation. No oars, no motor. There’s no one manning the dam at the moment, but there is a phone there.

There’s a brief conversation about radio frequencies and Reiko says she understands.

What she understands is cut off by the sound of an explosion in the distance. And then a second explosion, from the direction of the Concert Hall.

A news crew arrives people are looking at the burning pillars in the lobby and a third explosion happens, sending everyone scrambling away.

Back at the boat, Reiko and Conan practise hitting a high note, then start paddling their way closer to the dam. They get close enough and Conan inflates a ball out of his belt buckle *snerk*, kicks it experimentally for a moment, then does a hard kick, knocking the phone several stories above them off the cradle.

Reiko praises him for his aim, then they both hit the high notes together, one slightly higher than the other. ‘aa… Aa… AAA!’ The phone connects and an operator asks them what’s going on.

Wow. MacGyver much?

In a helicopter, Takagi and Sato get the news where Conan and Reiko are and buzz off to rescue them, finding the two of them looking rather bored in a boat. A pair of playing cards might have livened things up a bit.

They rush back to the Concert Hall, Takagi filling them in, Reiko shooting down one of Conan’s ideas and then they see the burning hall and filled with dread.

And inside the Concert Hall…. No one in the audience knows the building is burning. Onstage, Lala is singing ‘Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring’ by Bach with Kazuki on harpsichord. They finish with grace and the audience applauds. Kazuki addresses the audience and Ran starts to get worried.

Inside the helicopter, they’re worried too. There’s no place for them to actually land, no helipads available. Reiko urges them to land on the roof, which they do. Sato goes first, helping Reiko down, then Conan jumps, scaring the crap out of everyone. Another bomb goes off and Takagi quickly follows, the helicopter franticly fleeing away.

They get inside the building, Conan triggering his Detective Boys badge and throwing it next to the exit as they go running in. They open the doors to an empty balcony and discover the filled auditorium, Lala singing something out of Handel’s Messiah as far as I can tell.

Conan ponders, Reiko makes a comment and the pieces start falling together, Takagi’s notebook, the photo with the stand, various comments.

Reiko and Conan talk, Conan asking Reiko about something as they figure out something with the bombs. The organ keys are rigged, so when a key is hit, another bomb goes off. In the soundproof auditorium, no one can hear them.

However, Conan’s badge next to the roof door can hear them and transmit the sound.

Another key is hit, another bomb goes off and another red light on the device controlling the bombs is lit. Two dark lights left. Conan scans the room for someone, finding a shadow man holding something that looks like a controller.

Reiko and Conan come up with a plan. As the music plays below, the tempo changes and suddenly a new voice joins the song.

It’s Reiko, from the balcony singing ‘Amazing Grace’. The music on the stage stops as she walks down the stairs, singing.

The pause doesn’t last long as Kazuki starts up his song, the two songs duelling it out, clashing and harmonising. Finally, Kazuki gives up and switches over to ‘Amazing Grace’, which is on a lower keyboard on the organ, leaving the triggered key on the top keyboard alone.

…. Reiko has just saved the lives of everyone in the auditorium by singing ‘Amazing Grace’. Schweet.

Ran has a flash back, remember walking along a river bank three years ago with Shin’ichi and hearing Reiko sing the same song back then. The full story is in the OVA that came out this year.

Conan meanwhile is confronting the mysterious shadow character, laying out his deductive reasoning to… Fuwa Takumi. Superintendent of the Concert Hall and responsible for the maintenance of the Doumoto family.

Sato and Takagi lurk around, stalking doorways when they hear something. They burst into a room to find Hans Müller tied up and in the closet. This is –so- not the vacation he’d come here for.

Conan further explains the pieces, the scribble in Takagi’s notebook was a licence plate, the photo Genya showed of Paris had his son in the background. They talk, Reiko singing on stage, Lala has backed up so that they’re positioned well on the stage, but she’s not singing anymore.

The song finishes, then Kazuki launches into what sounds like the next song and Reiko freaks out.

… Then Kazuki stops. He just wanted to show off with a mini solo. The crowd goes wild, applauding and cheering and Genta blowing his recorder. All except for Sato and Takagi who are stalking the back of the of the Shonen Tantei’s box and see Takumi as a shadowy figure.

Takumi says too bad, so sad, wanders off to open the curtains so he can get a REALLY good view when he blows things up with the remote. Conan goes to hit him with a sleep dart, only to discover that his watch had been damaged when he’d been knocked over the head with a wrench.

Sato is trying to make a shot from the next balcony to the box, but Conan is inbetween her and Takumi, preventing her from making a clean shot. Haibara grabs Genta’s recorder and runs. Genta protests then realises, Hey! He has his voice back! Takumi watches as Kazuki climbs up the stairs back to the harpsichord with eager anticipation.

Conan’s wired tenser and tenser when suddenly a squawk reaches his ears and distracts him. It’s Haibara, playing a precise series of notes on the recorder. Conan translates the notes through some sort of bizarre Matrix-y method into ‘S-H-O-O-T’.

Kazuki plays the first chord of Vitali Chaconne on the harpsichord and Conan ducks. Sato shoots the bomb controller out of Takumi’s hand. Conan smirks.

Onstage, Shion plays with a small smile on her face. She doesn’t look nervous for the first time.

Sato binds Takumi’s hand with a handkerchief and asks about the bombs, then sends Takagi to Megure with information. Then they sit and listen to the music.

Outside is panic as Megure talks on the phone. Shiratori drags him into the building. As Conan asks Takumi why he wanted to blow everything up, (something about when he was 35, Kazuki ruined his dreams and his pride as a pianist?), Shiratori, Megure and a few firemen make it through the burning rubble into the clean halls, talk to Genya, Reiko and Lala, and into the room to hear Takumi’s confession.

Mouri, Ran and Sonoko somehow manage to join them as well as Takumi finishes his confession. Onstage, Kazuki finishes playing and his son fills him in. Megure’s rather sceptical about this whole ‘Pianist pride’ thing until Takumi pulls out a gun, aiming it at Megure. Everyone tenses and panics.

Then Kazuki walks in, the two of them talk, Takumi accusing him of lying. Sonoko gives him a Justice speech (she’s been watching too much Slayers lately), glancing at Ran, who nods and agrees about the truth. Takumi breaks down into tears in Kazuki’s arms. yay old guy slash?

The Shonen Tantei look in awe at the destruction later, after everything’s calmed down. Agasa asks Haibara about something that includes switching an H and a B and looks rather snarky.

Sonoko makes a comment about Shin’ichi, but Ran’s calmed down by now, and Ran wonders about where Conan is. The sounds of a violin playing ‘Amazing Grace’ come from the nearby woods and Ran wonders if it’s Shin’ichi and takes off running into the dark shadowy woods, by herself, to look for him. Sounds like the set up for a horror movie if ya ask me.

She finds a well lit area with a fountain in the centre, calling out for Shin’ichi. Conan appears, a violin tucked behind his back, Shin’ichi was just here but he had to run off. He gives her a serious romantic line and offers her the violin, but she turns him down, it’s not something she can play.

Ran smiles, calling Shin’ichi an idiot in her head and the end credits start rolling.

Credits, credits, credits, Ran, Conan and Reiko, dressed in baggy clothes, stand on the riverbank where they once heard her sing. They talk about Genta and singing, then Reiko leaves. Conan goes to tease Ran about Conan and she makes a comment about the violin that leaves him rather sullen faced.

Flash back to Conan sitting in the Kudo family library, playing ‘Amazing Grace’ on the violin. Shin’ichi splits off from him, commenting about being weird.

Yeah, like he's one to talk about himself that way. ~_~

-fin-

AND THEN!

We see an advert for movie 13! The letters look very magma ash like, a shadowy dark hand reaching out over them as a child’s voice giggles and a dark gravely voice growls.

We’re on for next year!




4,791 words! And over 1,500 words shorter than the last one, which was over 1,500 words shorter than the first one! Whoo-hoo!

Now I have no chance of keeping a straight face for any part of this movie when I get to watch it. It seems entertaining enough. Maybe not great but we haven't had a really good DC movie in a while (7 is pretty good and 6 is a personal favorite of mine).

I spent more time trying to find the correct titles to the songs than actually watching the movie for the summary. Really wishing that I had grabbed the soundtrack when when someone on f-list posted it.

Movie 8 is still my all time favourite, followed by 3 and 10, despite the plot problems. Keep meaning to do a summary for 10 as well, but I'd be heavily reliant on the translations, which kinda takes a lot of fun of the summaries out.

Reiko... I kinda liked her and I kinda didn't. She was a bit on the Mary Sue side, with how quickly and well she bonded with Conan, who is a paranoid little bastard. But after she stopped being a prick, I liked seeing her.
Conan's sudden ability to hit the notes, especially the high notes, after the whole canon thing of him being bad at singing, was rather strange as well.

Still hoping that 13 kicks ass. And that Kid is in 14. ^_____________^
