I was just thinking, how much longer would this anime last? I mean, it is amazing, and I don't want it to end, but it's 17 years old, and will probably end at some point. Provided that I did the math correctly, this is what I got.
1.Someone told me that at episode 500, they said it was the halfway point.
If you set up an equation,702/17=298/X,
Cross multiply, to get 702X=5066,
then simplify to get approximately 7.2.
If I did the math correctly, it will last for 7.2 more years.
2. Aoyama-sama said in an interview that he would "stop writing Meitantei Conan when he was 53", 3 years from now. A different source translated the interview as "The Meitantei Conan TV show will stop when Gosho Aoyama is 53 years old". I don't know which one is correct, though...
Anyways...
Setting up another equation, 702/17=X/3,
the Cross Multiplying, 17X=2106
then simplifying, X is approx. 123.9
123.9 is about 124
702+124=826.
Is Detective Conan only going up to episode 826?
So, is DC going to last for 7.2 more years and 298 more episodes, or is it going to last for 3 more years and 124 more episodes?

The manga wasn't as confusing, as the results were "2.96 more years and 135 more files", and "3 more years and 137 more episodes".
...though I suppose I should only doing this to the manga, as Aoyama-sama does the manga...
