Most definitely in order: - Nobi Nobita (Doraemon) - Kaiki Deishuu (Nisemonogatari) - Accelerator (Toaru series) - Miki Sayaka (Puella Magi Madoka Magica) - Kino (Kino's Journey) - Kyon (Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya) - Touma Kamijou (Toaru series) And after that it all gets jumbled up. Some honorary mentions: Daikichi Kawachi (Usagi Drop), Madoka Kaname, Kyoko Sakura (Puella Magi Madoka Magica), Nadeko Sengoku, Hitagi Senjougahara (Bakemonogatari), and probably a bunch of other characters that I'm forgetting.

(I guess this is shameless bumping, but this thread has ended up on the second page. Bad times ahead. I'll probably terminate this round if no one posts.)

Kaitou Kid: 50 Kogoro: 10 allow me my brief show of futile resistance i'll be back for the finale

Thought this was somehow related to the recent string of breaks and (rumored endings) of several long-running series that I've been hearing about. It isn't, so I guess DC isn't ending yet. But putting aside DC for Magic Kaito, I do not approve of. DC is the lesser of the two evils here, and I can get into DC a lot better than MK. Hmmm, like an evil counterpart? That might actually be a bit interesting. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The first episode I actually watched was the first KID case involving the Black Star, and I really got a good first impression of the series, and thought it had promise. The series would go on for several years afterwards and I stopped watching it as actively as I used to. I couldn't stand how the series had stagnated over time. In fact, DC is the reason why I will not pick up series with over 100 episodes, because I don't think any series can go on so long without remaining good (and besides, long series are hard to get into). I still watch the plot-advancing stuff but have since moved on.

As it turned out, there was another familiar face along with Robert's face. It was your old good friend, the skeleton man. Or as you now know him, Shell. It made a brief gesture of acknowledgement before leading Robert into the station. Perhaps you wondered what exactly Shell was doing here. That particular instance of Shell was in police uniform, but its actions from before cast doubt on its status as an officer. Should you ask one of the detectives, they didn't seem to recognize Shell either, but thought it was probably a fairly new face at the station. I guess there's a chance to talk to Robert now. It's a start. ================================= A voice came from behind Rye. "Don't worry?" The source of the voice placed a single hand on Rye's shoulder, and broke out in laughter. "That's the most horrible advice I've ever heard!" the voice continued, beginning to recover. Turning around, Rye found that the source of the voice was Lilliam, and probably took a step back or something. "I think you all have so much to worry about. Like who exactly is doing this, conveniently also giving me a source to draw power from? Like who would try to cause such mass chaos, which happens to be something I really like?" Lilliam smirked, then took a step back. "Oh, enough clues. I think we're ready to set the final stage. The next time we meet," she said, forming a pistol with her right hand. "You die." She fired her pistol, then a strange thing happened. Her right arm began to twist and grow in size. Mechanical parts stuck out from the arm, until Lilliam's right arm was a large mechanical limb. Using her limb, she propelled herself up onto the ceiling of the nearby building and disappeared. ================================= And the first reveal?! Lilliam Nevermore is (I dunno if you guys realized this) Aero after all! And she's heavily suggesting that she's behind this incident...but who knows where she is.

Without looking up anything, I highly doubt that there's going to be a lot of them. After all, basically all the murders in DC are premeditated and very planned out, and most murders are impulsive and not very well planned out. Not like there aren't any creative murders, and I bet a few of them served as inspirations for DC cases, but I honestly doubt the existence of many.

The possibility can't be ruled out, but AnimeTake's Dao has stressed that it's speculation and merely speculation and should be taken as such. Personally, I think it's doubtful, since there's some significant repercussions are at stake if any government is found to host a DDoS attack. It seems that the attacks did originate from Japan, though. Take that as you will. Also, the websites I use haven't been hit, so I actually didn't notice this until fairly recently. Huh.
