I just noticed that sometimes our communities' Status Update Wall is cluttered by Tweets and Facebook Statuses of those users that doesn't even go online here. I think they signed in through their Twitter/Facebook Account here once and forgot to log out in the forum. Am I right? They probably don't know that when they tweet/Update their status, It gets shared here which is bad of course, not just for that person but also for us. I do not know what's the cure here since I never used twitter in my life or signed in through facebook but I think this is a big issue since they aren't aware about it. EDIT: I have an idea. I think we should only allow users to update their status here once they reach a certain amount of posts.

sorry for the double post but episode 756 ( translated ) is out if anyone is interested

Hello , people . Clearing one thing out . This post is open for Ran Lovers AND Haters too ! You are free to express your opinion !! But , i do NOT appreciate bashing AT ALL . Just clearing The title says it all . People have reasons to hate a character but some people stated that their ONLY reasons to hate Ran are because she cries a lot . What's wrong with crying ? Besides being her love interest Shinichi is also one of her best friends , so it's obvious that she will miss him . If one is emotional , then it is necessary that the person is boring too . Ran is emotional person , but also a very strong character . Her parents are separated , she was deeply hurt but has also learnt to cope up with this loss . She is such a kind person too , it is clear in some cases . She tries to get some girls justice herself . I am not saying that people HAVE to like Ran . Am just saying that hating a person just because the person is emotional is strange . Here ends my post people Share your views

everyone have their own weakness... but if you ask me, i would say Ran is strong as not many people can handle such a situation especially to your loved one. Every person have their own emo time... Crying is a way to release

looking forward to that too.... I want Jodie x Shuichi and Ran x Shinichi<3 (just my opinion)

Why do people not like Ran? Because those who don't like Ran only focus on the her drawbacks (though human nature in general are always more attentive towards the negatives). If someone ONLY sees Ran as an irrelevant, emotional, and annoying girl with a horn-like bang, then he or she is simply ignorant because in reality, her good qualities outshine her bad ones. For example, Ran is selfless, humble, kind, strong-willed, a great cook, and a kick-ass girl (with a horn-like bang). I don't know about you, but those qualities scream "likeable" to me.

Ran is actually my favorite character. To me she's a normal girl with a huge heart. What's wrong with her character is beyond me, considering I love her personality to be honest.. But what I mostly hear is that Ran's image is too "perfect". She flaws don't stick out enough as a character. I've heard people say they don't like how she cries over Shinichi so much. That they don't like her to show a highly above average 'wait' for Shinichi? Some don't like the idea that she's too Mary-Sue. Some don't like how she's too plain. Some just don't like her hair :V It's truly just a matter of preference people have in characters. Some don't like Ran since she's too girly, sensitive, or sweet. Some prefer or do like her character. End of story. Everyone just has a different point of view when they look at a character. I personally like Ran, so ehh. That's just how I see it. P.S. It doesn't matter if you're ConAi or ShinRan, it shouldn't really effect your feelings towards a character. If it does then I think that's nothing more than you being close-minded and bias :V

Actually, I think Ran's character is actually a loveable character. She fits to be a perfect wife in reality. Perhaps we need to rethink about her character from Japanese girl's point of view. Also, we need to understand that that this anime has been a pretty long series. At that particular point of time when her character has been established, her character was actually a portrayal of most normal girls in high school. And at that time, the idea that girls are weaker than guys are still around. Girls like her are more or less thought to be normal. So the idea to make her strong in something like karate was actually to make her a little less normal. However, now, the situation is totally different. People do not think like this anymore. Girls are now a lot stronger than they used to be. Therefore, looking at girls like RAN now makes her a very plain character. Her actions now are deemed irritating and annoying. However I will still support her! Just because this girl still possesses the values which I believe in. To me, a person is smart or cool or beautiful or weak in heart is not as important as what I deem to be a value. So I don't dislike her.

I don't mind Ran, although she's not my favorite character. She constantly interrupts Conan's showdowns with Kid or deductions, but has taken down quite a few criminals to make up for it. I dislike her anime-generic gravity-defying hair, but her personality allows her to empathize woth even the culprit and she interacts well with other characters. The fact that she hasn't discovered Shinichi's identity, despite her suspicions, is due to Gosho's intention of revealing it to her at the end of the series, or returning him to normal without her ever knowing. She's an anime girl, and has been waiting for Shinichi forever, so yeah, she's gonna cry. I have several personal reasons not to hate her. 1) She's been faithfully waiting through everything, and although on occasion she's broken down, Ran has never betrayed Shinichi. When I think of her character, I realize that my bf being an hour away and not seeing him for 2 months is nothing compared to what others are going through. 2) Ran is Gosho's interpretation of the character, and though we are speaking of her as though she were alive, she is nothing but a manga/anime character. I only ever "Hate" a character if they are working against the 'hero' or hurting others. Ran is doing neither of those things. 3) She is taking care of Conan. She worries about him, protects him when he needs it, and is altogether his guardian. Without even knowing fully who he was, she took him in, and is a kindhearted, if overly sympathetic, person.
