Glass Heart

What if the boss is intended to appear as something we don't expect from a series like Detective Conan: a child who doesn't appear to be anything else than a child at first, while having a fake identity, a fake life, a fake family (with agents using disguises or not) ?

That is quite possible. After all, Wakasa's name is an anagram seemingly revealing Rum's true identity.

"Redrum" is "Murder" in reverse. "Akai" means "Red" (Shuichi Akai's name comes partially from "Akai Suisei", the "Red Comet", the nickname of Char Aznable in Mobile Suit Gundam and Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin). Rum is the name of the new BO operative. "Redrum" is a cliche in detective fiction, sometimes as an alias used by an unknown murderer.

I wonder if Gosho Aoyama is not trying to pull a "REDRUM" joke on us by implying that Shuichi Akai's father was involved in a past crime in which Rum was the murderer. Maybe that's too cliche but still he's definitely associating the words "Red" and "Rum" together on the same case. Still, Shuichi Akai himself is an handsome man who could look like a woman with his long hairs so, if his father looks just like him but older, he could fit all three descriptions of Rum.

I just read the last chapters of Detective Conan.

Personally, I'm not really searching for ONE character to be Rum. I have the feeling that he is a cross-dresser who will appear as two different characters of opposite gender, pretty much like Ranma Saotome from the point of view of people who don't know they're one and the same. If Rum appears as female, I definitely love the "Lum Invader as BO" design Gosho Aoyama as drawn. lol !

I'd love for

Chapter 900: We discover that the boss of the organization is in fact a KGB agent (who loves alcool) and that he is actually Kogoro Mouri wearing a disguise and a voice-changer. Or something like that. lol !

Honestly, this case is easily one of the worst I've remembered of the manga. For a case which was supposed to bring us some answers and be a major case in the whole arc, things were really poorly conceived. Very disappointed ! I really thought that Gosho Aoyama would do a way better job than this (like he did with the confrontation in red and black which was a masterpiece) !

So... that's just it ? What a disappointing case ! That's really the worst Gosho Aoyama could have done for the grand finale !

... Are you a fan of Death Note ? Seems like the "third Kira" theory.

The last chapter shows clearly that Subaru and Ran are watching the same thing at the same time.
