Detective Conan: An eternal mystery and an emotional journey

Story and Characters

The story of Detective Conan begins when high school detective Kudo Shinichi is forced to drink a poison by the Black Organization, causing his body to shrink. Using the false name of Edogawa Conan, he solves cases with his childhood friend Mouri Ran and her father, detective Mouri Kogoro. While Conan uncovers the true identity of the Black Organization and searches for a way to return him to his original form, he also takes on a number of difficult cases and solves many mysteries with his deductive powers and observational skills.

The main characters include Shinichi Kudo (Conan Edogawa), Ran Mouri, Kogoro Mouri, Professor Agasa, Ayumi Yoshida, Genta Kojima, and Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya. Each character is unique and charming, and their growth and relationships are also a major attraction of the story. In addition, members of the Black Organization such as Gin, Vodka, and Vermouth play important roles, adding depth to the story.
