Black Demon

In Vietnam they have translated all of the volumes, even the short cases. But they don't sell it anymore....

If Amuro = SA than he has already witnessed "Sleeping Kogoro" once, but we can assume that he didn't pay much attention at that moment, since he was in a rush.

But he didn't say how happy. Like I'm 99.99999999999% sure that Shinichi and Ran are gonna end up together, that's the happy part (well, not for most AiCon/ShinShi fans of course). But he never said that there will not be any single sad part, e.g a character dies. OK I'm getting out of topic.

Well, new file is now out, maybe we can try updating some information. Btw, after reading the latest file, it actually turns out that working as a waiter is really Amuro's part-time job (or one of them perhaps), and he told the wife to choose that restaurant because he works there. So I don't think that Tooru "poses" as a waiter at all (the very first line of that Wiki page). At least that's how DCTP translated it.

我要考试了... !!!!!! SAVE　ME !!!!!

Well, in the latest file, that Amuro guy has been showing too much skills of inspection and information gathering for all we know. He even knows about the fact that they were rescued in the fire, then who was adopted first, and who stayed at the church longer. That is quite impressive I must say, even for a detective. Also, according to DCTP's translation, it seems that being a waiter is just another part-time job of his; and I also doubt that he, as a detective, has so many clients. Which matches the fact that most of the time he's been doing something else... I can't wait to see something interesting will happen between Conan and Amuro.

I agree with Kyuu that it would be easier if Ran just uses his fingerprint(s), rather than DNA. But I'm not even sure whether she does have a suspicion or not. Her emotional expression at the time is hard to judge. And once again, if Ran really is taking an interest, it would be much wiser of her not to tell Conan.

I know, but still.... +_+

I find that possibility rather likely to happen, but also ironic at the same time. Okay, so far, the most suitable motive to explain Bourbon's serious hatred towards Akai is this whole Akemi thing. Bourbon seems to hold a grudge against Akai because he took advantage of her (which lead to her death). But now, Bourbon also uses another girl for his own gain, which doesn't make him any better than his enemy. And not the mention that Sera might also have been/will be in love with him (another Gundam preference). What happens after that is most likely to be tragical... The more I think about it, the more ironic it seems. However, I still have to agree that the possibility of this scenario is very high. P/S: I really hope that Gosho won't pair Sera with Tooru (whether it's a one-way-love or not), despite whatever happened in Gundam. I also want Tooru dead, but not now, maybe near the end.....

Since when am I "Grandpa of DCW" ??? :V

According to the spoiler....

I don't see anything similar between me and James Black, except for the "Black" part...

It's "YusakU" actually. And why am I James Black ?

I think that they just don't want to offend you, in case you don't like "your" character. Or at least I think so

Air, water and food. Nothing else, not even DC or DCW

I'm not sure if I understand it correctly. My theory is that it was actually a murder. Long time ago, also inside that kitchen, another woman filming herself commit suicide. Someone (the murderer?) later found that tape and dumped it into the well. Then, this time, he killed this woman by putting her into the oven, and place an empty camera so it looks as if the tape "inside" it was really the one under the well. Am I right ?

If I was a leader, I would definitely kill as much as I can for my own entertainment. I'm sick of being good, innocent and stuff. Can any of you answer me what's the point of being good, when bad fortunes just drop right on your head afterwards ? I don't do good things for rewards or because I want people who repay me and stuff. But it is so tiresome when good people have to suffer for things that was not even their fault, while the bad guys just celebrate in laughter ? If being good also means more pain, then I would rather being a villain.

Yes, of course I have read, and also watched that case. But I hardly feel her emotions like I did in the earlier arcs. If you want me to explain exactly why, I cannot answer because it is just my personal feeling. Of course she has only done it like 2 times, but the thing is that she didn't actually learn anything. And she did ask "Who are you ?" just like 1 second before she attacked Okiya (I don't know about the anime version, but if you read the manga, you'll find that line). She didn't let him finishes his explanation though... What if he was actually a friend of Shinichi's parents who borrowed there house ?

I find her crying in recent volumes emotionless, she drops tears, but I don't see her sadness anywhere (which can easily be felt in the past), that is the annoying part. But let's just say again that it was only my own personal feeling. And as for why I don't like her, even though she has many positive points ? It's because Gosho makes her negative ones more often and too obvious, to the point that you just cannot ignore them (e.g. the screaming part that you mentioned). It makes many readers hard to only consider her good qualities. Also, I acknowledges Ran's courage, kindness... (which btw many characters in DC also have, not only her), and assume that all of my comments about her personalities not "good" enough to dislike her; I really don't like it when she, at times, uses her Karate on people without considering the situation and not even letting them finish their explanation (Okiya's case). You may not think it's an "good enough" reason to dislike a character, but I do. Because at moments like that, all of her kindness, sweetness... are gone. All you see is an aggressive, violent teenage girl, thus completely damaged Ran's image. I actually wouldn't care that much about Ran if she never acts like that (which again is also Gosho's "failure" in portraying her character).

In case something like that does happen, I surely hope that Gosho will spoil enough clues/hints so even an "average" reader like me can solve it.

It would be interesting if Tooru's Bourbon, and he was actually a very high-ranking/important operative in the Org. (somewhat on par with Gin and Vermouth). I don't know about his assassinating skill but I can see his intelligence alone is definitely something that is to The Boss' advantage. Of all executive members we've known so far, there are two main kinds: - Elderly members (may even be "original members") and play a very important part in the maintaining of the Organization: Pisco (but it seems that they don't need his financing anymore). - Extremely skilled, experienced and intelligent members (of course comparing to the rest of the Org.), can be in charge of multiple missions: Gin, Vermouth (although she might have been BOTH). I wouldn't be surprised if The Boss acknowledged Bourbon as the second type. Whether his deducing skill is on par with Conan and Akai or not, it is something very dangerous that even Gin would comment: "Like you said, someone whom you'd wish was only in a novel. A great detective, like Sherlock Holmes..." (although there's still a possibility that he was talking about someone else.).

So I'm Japan. Hmmmm.... interesting.

Not all of them. As for me, I hate AiCon/ShinShi, I even made the "Vote for a non Conan/Shinichi boyfriend for Haibara" topic. I also don't like Haibara very much in general. Of course if you lists something that is positive about Ran, there will be many to talk about, since she's a good character. But this topic to ask why would someone dislike her, it wouldn't be a surprise if all things said here are negative points. I don't know about others, but as for me, even though I don't like Ran, I still acknowledge her good side. And once again, I personally think it's Gosho's fault in making her crying scenes kind off annoying, while they are actually very emotional in the past volumes.

I wish that I wasn't so distracted =_=

OK, so they're the same. Now all we're looking for is a translator...
