Filler Episode Poll: Answer Key

Thanks to everyone who participated, this was really cool data! So for those curious, here’s the answers with vote counts! Out of 949 votes, 268 were for the ‘Sees answers/Detco fan’ category, with the other 681 split between all these.

#9. “The gang re-enacts Home Alone in a closed department store” - 62 votes

Real! Episode 17: The Department Store Hijacking Case. One of the earliest fillers, the third one ever. I dunno if it’s specifically a Home Alone reference, but it does have that vibe.

#1: “Victim is killed by culprit with a fishing pole from across the street” - 22 votes

Real! Episode 53: The Mystery Weapon Murder Case. It’s a pretty basic one, just one I happen to like since it’s not technically solved by Conan himself, which fillers don’t do too often.

#5: “Conan's parents buy a nearby house to stalk him in disguise” - 95 votes

Real, unfortunately. Episode 418: Home of Beika’s Grenier. This one’s pretty bad. If the character limit was longer, I would’ve added “Conan figures it out because an old man stands up wrong.”

#8. “Culprit blinds a driver with a road sign so he can crash into his car on purpose” - 42 votes

Real! Episode 556: The Fearful Intersection. The culprit committed murder by making it look like he accidentally collided with another car. Gave himself a head injury and probably whiplash and everything, now that’s commitment to the bit. (I didn’t screenshot it, but after that screenshot of the cars crashing, it shows the culprit seemingly unconscious against his own airbag before giving an evil smile.)

#4: “Culprit traps Conan in a collapsing building but is saved by a celebrity cameo” - 34 votes

Real, and the only two-parter on the list! Episodes 804-805: Conan and Ebizo's Kabuki Jūhachiban Mystery. Honestly I wish I had a longer character limit for this one, because the collapsing building is just one part of this whole thing involving a stolen mask, two murders, blackmail, and getting caught because of a button. The celebrity cameo is Ichikawa Ebizō XI (currently known as Ichikawa Danjūrō XIII, but was Ebizo at the time of this episode,) and focuses on the Kabuki aspect of his career, but it seems like he does a lot of things. The special really just glorifies him the whole time, though he is written as being a massive fan of the show’s idiot detective, Kogoro. Who later almost accuses him of murder.

#6: “Man is catfished by an old lady, who then fakes a murder for Instagram fame” - 198 votes

Real! Episode 943: The Tokyo Barls Collection. I could’ve made this one so much longer too, and honestly I don’t even know how to screencap it. The name is a play on the “Tokyo Girls Collection” (the name of a Japanese fashion show), apparently. The group of old ladies fake an attempted murder (because one of them pretends to choke on a cabbage core and insists one of her friends put it in her food on purpose somehow) and lure in a famous detective (Kogoro, the catfished one which is also his dark souls boss name) to draw attention to their show. Their apology goes viral on social media afterwards.

This wound up being the most voted by far! I think partly because no one thought Instagram was a thing on the show. Which is fair, the show doesn’t call it that. Maybe Youtube would’ve been a better comparison since it has a view count that goes up, but whatever, same principle-- he’s what it looks like.

#3: “The gang is hired to find a lost armadillo, the culprits are the Blues Brothers” - 92 votes

Real, and one of my favorites. Episode 976: Follow Them! Detective Taxi. Not a favorite because it’s good, but because it’s just as insane as that summary suggests. And you can watch it dubbed on Tubi with the BangZoom cast if you want! I’m not sure why you’d want to, but that sure is a thing you can do if you want to watch Kogoro flirt with this cab driver.

#2: “Jewel thief steals pizza from children” - 80 votes

Real! Episode 1068: Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya's Detective Notes. Man this show has gone on a long time. Technically the culprit only steals the boxes. Had to put the jewels inside something.

And finally...

#7: “Gun smuggling ring is stopped by a drunk remembering what happened last night” - 56 votes

Fake! As far as I know. With all the episodes of this stupid show there are, maybe there’s a filler I haven’t seen that’s close to this. Oh my who left this fanfic I wrote here how strange, I wonder if the plot is similar to this fake filler episode, I guess you’d have to read it to find out

Episodes 804 and 805: Conan and Ebizo's Kabuki Jūhachiban Mystery

[dc-partners]

Which's your favorite CoAi episode? I adore Eps 230-23, “The Mysterious Passenger”!

That one was really good! 

I also like the “Reunion with the Black Organisation” (ep 176-178) but for the ones in the 2010′s, I really liked “Conan and Ebizo's Kabuki Jūhachiban Mystery” (ep 804-805)

[tsuri-chan]

Episode 804-805: Conan and Ebizo's Kabuki Jūhachiban Mystery

Anime original

Plot in five keywords:

Someone manipulated the brakes of a company president’s car, but Conan is able to stop it

They meet the president who is a huge fan of kabuki theater and knows the actor Ichikawa Ebizo XI

The famous two-faced mask, which will be used for a play, is missing

And there’s a dead man in a car

Conan gets kidnapped

Important plot development:

We get to know that Chiba’s first name is Kazunobu

Minor Ran x Shinichi relationship progress

Rating:

8/10 masks

This is an episode which kept my interest from the beginning on. The case is well-written, there are some funny scenes. Maybe a bit too long in my opinion, but all in all, this is a very watchable filler.

Hi Skye, I think you might have seen this question several times before but I'm still curious about your opinion on this. Why are anime originals so meh nowadays? I remember most of the earlier anime originals being at least interesting. I think the art might be a big problem, I feel like the overly bright colours, the "new" feel to the series and stuff like that kinda tone down the mood. But even the stories are rarely that intriguing. And btw, what are your top 5 AO's in the last 200 eps?

If the stories are bad, then it’s gotta be the scripts themselves? I haven’t looked, but either we have a bunch of new writers or the old ones have run out of ideas. :x I don’t have a date stamp on this in my inbox, so I’m not sure what the last 200 episodes from the time you wrote this would’ve been, so we’ll go from now. The number in parentheses are the ratings they received when I watched them for the blog.

Hey there, I love your posts! :D I was wondering (idk if you've been asked this before; if so, I'm sorry) - but are there any Anime Original episodes that you think are worth watching/recommending? I know a lot of it is filler that isn't up to par with Gosho, but I was wondering if there are any cases that particularly stood out to you. Thank you!
