Detective Conan/Case Closed Re-Read Through: Volume Thirteen

Okaaay, this volume is full of head smashing/bashing, stabbing, and slight foreshadowing. 

This volume concludes the murders that took place on the Holmes Freaks Tour, where Conan uses Heiji/Harley to make his deductions. Surprise, Heiji/Harley now knows that Conan is actually Shinichi/Jimmy! Next, Conan, Ran/Rachel, and Sonoko/Serena, travel to a summer villa where Sonoko/Serena’s older sister Ayako is meeting the family of her fiancé Yuzo. But then it appears that Yuzo murdered his father! What a twist. Next, there’s a case where Kogoro/Richard is meeting an artist to have a discussion with him, but it appears that a lady who also works for the company has committed suicide by jumping off of her apartment’s balcony right across the street. And finally, Professor Agasa takes the Detective Boys/Junior Detective League to the set of the last Gomera film. The kids witness someone in the Gomera costume murder the film producer, and Conan uses Professor Agasa to make his deductions for the first time. (I believe.)  

Least Favorite Thing:

I was at work and I was internally screaming when I read this. I HATE this form of death. It is the worst. This is like my least favorite way you could kill someone, by smashing them on the head. Especially with a rock. 

OHHH LOOK. More head bashing, with an ash tray. AAHHHHHH...no. 

Later on the murderer is like, “I’m sorry you children had to witness that.” YEAH, ME TOO. Freaking traumatic. 

Most Favoritest Thing:

Conan be like, I ain’t covering for you. Ayako’s fiancé did it! Good job, Conan. 

*spoilers* He has two other identical looking brothers, so...

Funniest Moment:

The struggle is real. How can he put Sonoko/Serena to sleep if you keep being a mom, Ran/Rachel? 

Mom, let me solve crimes!!! 

Mom, I just want to stay longer to solve this crime!!! 

They wanted to film Kogoro/Richard in a sleeping pill commercial, lmao. He should have done it!

Saddest Moment:

*shakes head* Jimmy/Shinichi can’t even defend himself in front of Ran/Rachel. Thanks, Heiji/Harley. 

Cutest Moment: 

Look at these two cuties laughing together! 

Kogoro/Richard thought he was going to be modeling, not just having a discussion. They found it rather amusing. 

Favorite Case:

Surprisingly, it was the case with Gomera, which will be further discussed. Also, I LOVE Conan’s snazzy little jacket. 

To be honest, I’m surprised Conan hasn’t snapped at them like this sooner. 

Tomomi is this ladies name, and I think this part is really sad. She doesn’t want her cast mate to go to jail for the murder. 

FORESHADOWING *coughcoughcough* 

Ran’s second suspicion is coming up soon, and knowing that I knew that this was kind of foreshadowing to that. Which was really cool, I mean this was close to the end of the volume. 

Favorite Character:

How could it not be, Heiji/Harley?!? He came to the realization that Conan was Shinichi/Jimmy without a lot of help. I’m excited to see how his character develops by being friends with Shinichi/Jimmy. 

At the end of this volume, Gosho states how it’s been 3 years since he started Detective Conan. AHHHH...BUT IT’S BEEN SO LONG NOW, GOSHO. 

That’s it for this volume! It doesn’t end on a cliffhanger, so the next volume will have a brand new case at the beginning! Until then!
