Just watched Movie 20: The Darkest Nightmare, and it was great!

Most importantly:

Curacao!!!!

No, seriously, I love her so much:')))

I got attached so fast even though I knew what was going to happen

She's such a compelling character and arguably the main character of this movie. Every single interaction she has with any of the characters is great, but especially with the detective boys

Her death?? was so?? brutal?? Like, holy shit!!!!

And only Haibara and conan know that she saved everyone:'(

She's a movie only character I'll never see again and there isn't even any fanfiction about her, and I'm devastated :(((

Other stuff:

Lol Mitsuhiko is totally abusing the detective boys' connections 'oh let me just call our dear friend, police officer takagi. Oh, let's get a ride on this booked out ferris wheel by contacting the daughter of one of the richest families in japan

Conan doesn't even do much for the first half of the movie

Sooo smart of the PSB to just have a basically unguarded list of all the spies in the world lying around

I'm pretty sure this movie takes place in a single day yet the BO had the time to just. travel to the US to kill those spies lol

Why were these two idiots having a completely plot-irrelevent, homoerotic fistfight on top of a ferris wheel???

This might be one of the few, if not the only movie, where it's not conan who saves the day, which I personally like a lot

Hi Detective, what did you think of Movie 20?

It had a lot of good concepts going for it, as well as great fanservice ideas, but the way it all came together, the weak reasoning for characters' actions, the sidelining of characters as well as the lack of an actual mystery, made the movie feel like it was somewhat rushingly put together. The only well executed thing was in my opinion Curacao's characterization and her relationship development with the Detective Boys.

There was a lot of initial hype watching the movie because of a lot of new things happening that has never happened before, but upon rewatch, it does feel like cheap unearned fanservice and I wouldn’t put it on my top favorites.

My Opinion About Zero's Tea Time (ZTT) Detective Conan Spin-Off

Summary: I agree this is not really 'Zero's Tea Time', more to Furuya Rei's Tea Time or Amuro Toru's Tea Time. Because Amuro and Rei are here, but Zero forever buried and only occasionally appear for his late dear friends. Zero is for WPS and for now, WPS only.

I'm happy ZTT Rei has Haro as some kind of healing and now I'm even more worried for Canon Rei. Canon Rei only have Kazami :"D

Overall, I love ZTT especially Time.2, Time.3, and Time.6! But other Eps are so fun too! I want to read ZTT manga now!

It's understandable if some people feel that ZTT is too fanservice-y because half of the screentime is for Amuro Toru persona, & even I think some of Rei's action here is a bit too open (additional after reading the manga: And too much free time being 'Amuro Toru' for the people, like ski resort chapter, baseball chapter, etc) for supposed-undercover.

But we actually get a lot of Rei being Rei too? So it's not THAT bad

Especially when Kazami is with him. He's so "Rei". And when Camel came to Poirot. That's Rei being "Rei" too. Furuya Rei flashback with Elena? Mourning for WPS? Liking Japanese product? Hating Akai? That's all "Furuya Rei" at his most authenticity.

(Additional after reading the manga: The moment we saw Rei being 'Furuya Rei' on anime and movie are always on urgent situation, except Police Academy Arc. Rei being 'Rei' in anime and movie is always high-stake or just serious moment. So I really appreciate Furuya Rei non-serious mode on ZTT. The control-freak nature? The occasional snark? The side-eye? The impatient 'I-dont-choose-other-way-I-make-MY-way-as-long-as-I-reach-my-goal'? Golden.)

So I don't really understand when people hated ZTT like it's the worst thing to do for Rei, like ZTT done so much disservice for Furuya Rei's character... But I guess it's back to each opinion

(Additional after reading the manga: As romantic AmuAzu disliker, I even feel confused for those who said ZTT baited too much for canon romantic AmuAzu in manga because, I actually don't see much scene of romantic AmuAzu except for that one chapter which in the end not happening at all because it's just grandma's imagination from the start to the end, and the last chapter when Azusa cried after Rei came back to Poirot.)

Final rating: 9/10! I love Rei. Kazami is great. Azusa, Midori, Hiroki, Camel are nice

Funfact: I consider the interpersonal relationship & the personal feeling here as canon rather than the event itself

The WPS dream of Rei... I interpret it as Rei himself is the one who kinda suicidal because he wanted to be with his friends, not like "WPS would never say that!"

Same with movie. I think the event itself isn't canon but the feeling is CANON

Like, Rei placing his Akai Hatred above national importance (read: Curacao & BO coming)? Canon. Rei willing to unjustifiedly arrest someone so he could actually catch the real one? Canon.

Rei could drive crazily? Canon

I thought the only reason Rei didn't fight with Akai on M26 because of:

- He didn't meet face to face with Akai

- Conan already in the middle of them (like how in M20 they stopped fighting bcs Conan here)

- BO actually already there at that moment

Still thinking about Movie 20

[aonomiki]

the best way to watch Detective Conan movie 20 is to ignore Amuro and Akai completely and just let yourself get emotionally devastated by Curacao's plotline instead.

Hi Detective, what did you think of Movie 26?

Movie 26 (Black Iron Submarine) Review

Raw feelings:

I'm completely speechless by this movie. It was way beyond any of my minimal expectations. It was extremely good!

I was baffled out of pure disbelief at how much main plot stuff they were revealing in this movie to the point that my brain fried. You could immediately feel that it was a movie you needed to rewatch multiple times in order to fully digest and appreciate its greatness. It was pure fanservice in the best way possible, not the botched M20 way, where fanservice scenes didn't feel earned, mystery being completely gone and main plot/cast characters getting sidelined. Everyone had their moment to shine.

After 15 years, I get a DC movie that finally topped M13 as my new all-time favorite DC movie. I was so thoroughly satisfied that I couldn't help but clap at the end.

Haibara (Sherry)

Haibara truly shined in this movie. Not only did she have proactive role in rescuing herself, Naomi and later Conan, but her personal romantic feelings, childhood past and current relationships with her dear friends were further fleshed out. I was floored by the degree that she got exposed, to the point of the OG antagonist Vodka standing right in front of her next to Pinga, ready to kidnap her, and then later interrogating her about her identity.

I truly adore how the movie also revealed what started the bullying she went through in America (protecting her fellow half-japanese) and how Naomi's story complimented Haibara's childhood. It was a beautiful touch having Haibara's childhood classmate Naomi realizing Haibara's true identity by the end of the movie.

I also love how the movie depicted how highly Haibara viewed Conan/Shinichi and his protective reassuring face. It was cute seeing her face light up with happiness when he showed up. I was shocked, but also very appreciative of how respectful she was trying to be of Shinichi's relationship with Ran (more than the fandom clearly) that she went to the degree of passing on her CPR kiss with Conan to Ran.

Mizunashi (Kir)

Kir was one of the big standouts in this movie. You could truly feel the shift in spotlight focus between her and Bourbon, seeing as Bourbon was truly put in the backburner for Kir to get more shine, and it was perfectly handled and a true overdue for her (since she has been neglected in the franchise overall). I couldn't stop grinning and appreciate her nonchalant stunts to aid in Haibara's escape by pretending to not know how to open the exit tube in the submarine so Vodka could thoroughly explain it as Haibara overhears everything through the transmitter.

I especially loved her less indirect and confrontational move towards Gin, when she directly interferred with his murder attempt of Haibara & Naomi, and how she calmly talked back at Gin when he aimed the gun at her. She was a true badass worthy of her NOC title, that I've longed to see in the series, only to get it in this wonderful movie.

Pinga

I really enjoyed Pinga's role in the movie as well, and especially appreciated how he wasn't written to be similar to Irish and Curacao (who had a more sympathetic antagonist development) but rather to be a more selfish greedy psychopath with more ambition than Gin, but less talented. It was interesting to learn how he was deep undercover as an engineer for interpol since 5 years back while disguised as a woman.

I especially enjoyed seeing his fights with Ran, and how she became a troublesome enemy for him (giving Ran good spotlight like in M13), as well as how Conan straight up shit-talked to him while giving Gin praise in comparison, to the point of riling Pinga up.

Vermouth

Vermouth was the true MVP in this movie. She had such a central role in saving Haibara from the organization's suspicion. It was extremely exciting to see Vermouth immediately sensing the potential of Naomi's All-age Recognition System (ARS) and how it could expose the boss identity and whereabouts, but more importantly to her, expose Shinichi's shrinking, that she'd rather keep hidden like a pandora's box. I was shocked and loved how she manipulated the Boss into giving her the order to destroy the ARS for his own sake, when she in reality wanted to not only conceal the current APTX shrinking effects from him, but also protect Shinichi. The way she used her disguising skills to invalidate the ARS' accuracy was just a genius move by her.

The biggest surprise to me was how she was revealed to be the old woman from the start in disguise, who was given the sale ticket for a Fusae brand brooch by Haibara out of selfless kindness, and how Vermouth was basically revealed to also be repaying that kindness back to Haibara by protecting her from the BO, further deepening her motivations and multi-faceted nature in such a beautiful way as she gazes at the confused Silver Bullet (Conan) who is questioning them after getting Bourbon's intel.

Rum & Karasuma Renya

The Biggest shocker in this whole movie was without a doubt the big reveal that Rum, the no.2 of the Black Organization, is unaware of the Boss' whereabouts in recent times and that, apart from having Pinga request Naomi to sell the ARS to them so they can modify it and also use it to erase the BO's activities in security cameras (according the boss' orders), had intended to use the ARS to locate Karasuma Renya (the Boss).

This was a huge bombshell reveal, yet to be revealed in the manga, that further clarified the current ongoings within the organization. It basically as good as confirmed that the Boss is hiding a de-aged form from his subordinates (including his very close associate, Rum) and that no one other than Vermouth is aware of his hidden whereabouts. This revelation is further supporting my "Child of seven (Nanatsu no ko)" theory (the Boss being a shrunken 7-year-old who is only contacting his subordinates through phone to hide his child appearance and maintain authority). This also further established a distrustful relationship between Karasuma Renya and Rum, seeing as the Boss has kept Rum out of the loop, and how Rum has persisted to locate the Boss against his wishes, creating a very small divide within the organization's power structure. This is extremely exciting for the future of the series and has gotten me very hyped for what's left of Rum's development in the Rum climax.

Conclusion

This movie was overall a 10/10 product, that gave all the fans outstanding fanservice. Conan's devotion to save Haibara, Ran's supportive contribution to the point of almost getting shot, Agasa's deeply moving heartfelt tears after Haibara's kidnapping, Kuroda's helpful backing of Conan, Bourbon's informational support and Akai's loyal aid in taking down the submarine were all just the tip of the iceberg. All the beautiful callbacks to canon events were also among the best of the fanservice. I especially loved Haibara's callback to how a child (Ayumi) had once changed her life through their actions (File 437), Pisco kidnapping her despite wearing glasses (File 240), Ran reminding Haibara of Akemi (like in File 434), Kir's callback to her father sacrificing himself for her in response to Naomi's cry (File 604) and all the moments Haibara recalled when Conan comforted and moved her (Bus hijack, Haibara intro, Reunion, etc).

Gosho's involvement in the story was clearly noticeable, just by the sheer quality of the movie, and all of his many drawn keyframes were beautiful.
