Sherlock and John - Kabukichou Sherlock episode 24

[witchy-capri]

Review time! (spoilers and CW: blood)

Firstly, WTF with Sherlock in this ep?! He totally lost it! 0_0

John’s backstory! John’s backstory! ♪ What a cinnamon roll (♥‿♥)

“You’re the one who destroyed our family”. Can we talk about how much toxic his father is? Cheating on his wife and then blaming his son for their divorce. Good content for future therapy there...

Give this man a hug!!!

All that technology for what...? A man you already know where he lives? Wtf guys... And also Mycroft seems very keen to put his own brother in jail, it’s a bit weird.

“It smells love triangle” THIS! THIS IS THE SHOW! XD

This flashback (♥‿♥)

♥♥♥

Well shit.

Can we talk about Watson being so excited about teaming up again and then stumbling upon a murder? Seriously during all the ep I was prepared to scream “THE BOYS ARE BACK AGAIN” on tumblr and then we have this cliffhanger （・□・；）

I’m curious for what is going to happen next now

[fujoshigirl7]

Poor Watson

First gets kicked out of his room

Gets replaced as the housekeeper

Comes to the relevation that Sherlock enjoys Irene's cooking more than his

Aww.... don't worry though, you'll always be Sherlock's priority

[professionalfangirllife]

Kabukichou Sherlock introduced Irene Adler and Mycroft Holmes in today’s episode. So in episode 7 we got to see Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, James Moriarty, Mycroft Holmes, Irene Adler, and Mrs. Hudson. Honestly, I couldn’t be happier right now <3

Next one in my analysis is: Professor Moriarty

As Moriarty has several names I will name each one in each version

Sherlock Holmes Original Books

Before you say: "but I never picked up a classic book because it's racist, xenophobic and homophobic"

 Read my post talking about it:

The Final Problem (1893)

It was intended to be the final Holmes story, ending with the character's death.

Professor James Moriarty, the arch-enemy of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes, a mathematics professor turned master criminal. His genius is acknowledged by even Holmes himself to be on par with him. "He is the Napoleon of crime, Watson. He is the organizer of half that is evil and of nearly all that is undetected in this great city. He is a genius, a philosopher, an abstract thinker. He has a brain of the first order. He sits motionless, like a spider in the centre of its web, but that web has a thousand radiations, and he knows well every quiver of each of them." ―Sherlock Holmes to Dr Watson speaking about Professor Moriarty [src]

He was the world's only "consulting criminal"; a stark contrast to his nemesis Sherlock Holmes' similarly unrivaled "consulting detective" occupation.

He have only two appearances and still managed to win readers around the world, just an old man with a criminal network.

Sherlock BBC (2010)

Synopsis

Dr Watson, a former army doctor, finds himself sharing a flat with Sherlock Holmes, an eccentric individual with a knack for solving crimes. Together, they take on the most unusual cases

Jim Moriarty

He developed his skills at criminal activities and went on to create a large criminal organisation which would stretch across the whole globe.

One of the most charismatic villains that have been adapted, it's amazing how he fools Sherlock several times, though....It would be better if they left him dead and not act like his remnant still rules the criminal underworld

Elementary (2012)

Synopsis

Sherlock, a recovering drug addict, and Joan Watson, a former surgeon hired to aid Sherlock in his rehabilitation, help the New York Police Department solve difficult crimes.

Jamie Moriarty

Jamie Moriarty is the nemesis of Sherlock Holmes. After Holmes interrupted several of her plans when he worked for Scotland Yard, she tricked him into falling in love with her so she could study him, yes they f*****.

In this scenario Jamie is the Woman aka Irene Adler, so yes Irene and Sherlock also cannon in this one and MORIARTY AND SHERLOCK TOO

She is a character that no one suspects until out of nowhere she becomes the owner of the world's criminal network, a plot twist that no one expects.

If you're going to do a genderswap remember her, she is a great example of how to do this.

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (2011)

Synopsis

It is the sequel to the 2009 film Sherlock Holmes. When Austria's crown prince is found dead, evidence seems to point to suicide. However, detective Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) deduces that the prince was murderedand that the crime is but a piece of a puzzle designed by an evil genius named Moriarty (Jared Harris).

James Moriarty

While he appears to be a respectable mathematics professor, Moriarty is in fact a criminal mastermind who oversees a massive network of crime and deception.

While he appears to be a respectable mathematics professor, Moriarty is in fact a criminal mastermind who oversees a massive network of crime and deception. 

This one is very similar to the original proposal of the book and I think it fulfills the role of king of the underworld well.

Kabukichou Sherlock (Case File nº221: Kabukicho) or 歌舞伎町シャーロック (2019)

Synopsis

In Shinjuku ward's east side lies Kabukichou, a vibrant city of chaos that glows brilliantly with neon lights but also hides unseen darkness. Employed at a university hospital on the west side, John H. Watson is looking for someone who can assist him with an odd case. His search leads him to the Pipe Cat, an underground bar that serves as a meet up venue and job board for some of the best detectives in Shinjuku, the most prominent among them being Sherlock Holmes.

James "Moriarty" MORAN

He is Moran's son...yeah don't ask just watch

He is a kid, yeah...

In contrast to Sherlock, James is a cheerful and affable individual. He's also shown to care a lot for the Kabukichou Irregulars as he visits them quite often. The delinquent kids in the city refer to him as their "captain" and follow them around. Sherlock considers him to be a friend as John Watson also warms up to them. Early in the series it is hinted at that James has a dark side that is commonly associated with Moriarty.

 Yuukoku no Moriarty, Moriarty The patriot or 憂国のモリアーテイ (Manga: 2016- present) ( Anime: 2020-2021, OVA: 2022)

This series is  the reason I threw Johnlock from the window

Synopsis

It focuses on the youth of Holmes' nemesis, William James Moriarty. 

William James Moriarty or Liam( the nickname his husband Sherlock gave him)

He is crime consultant. Liam wants to use his power and knowledge to come up with the perfect crimes in hopes of ending the class system and reforming society.

He is also a Math teacher on Durham's University ( and gay as hell, he loves his Sherly very much)

He also have two HOT brothers Louis James Moriarty (his biological brother) and Albert James Moriarty. The three share the name of James Moriarty and they are the Lord of Crime.

Moriarty here just wants to build equal rights between the two social classes, the poor and the nobles.

This is one of my favorite Sherlock Holmes actions that even though it's a spin-off deserves a chance I prefer the manga to the anime.

Give this Moriarty a hug and I think this one deserves a hug

Lupin the Third- Part 6 (2021)

Synopsis

The infamous Arsene Lupin III takes his gang of thieves to Great Britain to investigate the existence of the Raven's hidden treasure.

We don't know a lot of details, but with Moran appearing on the show soon and him quoting "The Professor" he will appear soon .

He is apparently a crime consultant and probably a math teacher like the original...Nothing too crazy

We don't know if is a woman or a man, but we know the Moriarty network is there or is Raven itself.

Well if TMS do something crazy about this character... It's fine I guess... The only crazy thing they can do is Moriarty ending up killing Holmes, and even it's not crazy....I mean Doyle wanted The Final Problem being his last work with Sherlock...so yeah...

If the person is Lestrade, well... they've already turned Irene Adler into Moriarty and Moriarty being Moran's son, it wouldn't be the craziest thing they've done on the show....

But he/she will show up at some point because where there's Moran there's Moriarty.

Okay, this is after I watched the new trailer and only a theory: Moriarty being Lupin's mom??? Creative, I can live with that after many versions of Moriarty(and after 2021... honestly nothing surprises anymore), I can't complain about that (lol this make Moran's Lupin step father....THIS KEEP GETTING BETTER)

Anime Spotlight - Kabukichou Sherlock: Case File nº221: Kabukicho

This was a fun detective series with a twist on the Sherlock formula, not groundbreaking or as intense or clever as other detective shows but still enjoyed it.

The plot  is in Shinjuku ward's east side lies Kabukichou, a vibrant city of chaos that glows brilliantly with neon lights but also hides unseen darkness. Employed at a university hospital on the west side, John H. Watson is looking for someone who can assist him with an odd case. His search leads him to the Pipe Cat, an underground bar that serves as a meetup venue and job board for some of the best detectives in Shinjuku, the most prominent among them being Sherlock Holmes. Upon finding the bar and meeting the peculiar investigators, John learns that they are pursuing a case involving Jack the Ripper, an infamous serial killer. Due to subsequent events, John ends up driving Sherlock to the crime scene of a murder supposedly carried out by Jack the Ripper. Even though John is only there to enlist Sherlock's help with his case, he witnesses Sherlock brilliantly uncover the truth behind the crime scene. However, he begins to realize that Sherlock is not only a genius detective but also an eccentric character. As John continues to request Sherlock to assist him with his case, he finds himself spiraling into the detective lifestyle of solving cases beyond the minds of ordinary civilians. Through this work, John begins to see the true colors of the chaotic city that is Kabukichou and starts to unravel the unsettling mystery behind his own case.

Sherlock was more eccentric in this than Ive seen in any other versions but I really liked the added Rakago element. I wanted Watson to be a bit more competent and less comic relief but he was still good for Sherlock’s development. Really liked Moriarty and how his story developed and there are a host of colourful characters. Is a very fun and not to over complicated series. The cases are interesting especially the over arching ones and everyone is likeable so happy to follow their adventures.

I think it could have been a bit shorter to tighten up the good bits but overall its simple fun. There are definitely more intense and clever detective shows but the murder mystery story line had my attention and the Sherlock/Moriarty dynamic made the story more intriguing.

Fun and a bit different.
