Wow this is fast! WHAT DOES SERA MEAN, SHE KNEW THAT CONAN'S A HUGE HOLMES FAN JUST LIKE SHINICHI A LONG, LONG TIME AGO?! Does a few months count as 'long, long time ago'?! I thought that she was out to search for Akai ever since she heard that he died! And Akai didn't 'die' until a few months ago, in Conan's timeline! Sera did react to seeing Scar Akai, though, just like Jodie, as if she couldn't believe that Akai existed - she said "No way, that couldn't be . . . " - maybe Sera has been searching for Akai far longer than I thought? I guess that she got separated from Akai pretty long ago? But why would she know about Shinichi/Conan 'a long, long time ago' if Shinichi/Conan and Akai didn't knowingly come in contact with each other until a few months ago?! Does this mean that Sera's interest in Shinichi is separate from her interest in Akai?! OMG so exciting!♥

Some of you might already know about this interview from dctp, but I just found it so here it is . . . It's always good to have multiple translations, right, so that if there's a discrepancy then people can figure out what the translation error is?! So here it is. From 2chan, another blog confirms this interview As usual, since the Japanese language likes to leave out subjects, I'll be filling in what I think the subject is, but it might not necessarily be accurate. 例のガンダムエースの対談　※コナン関係を抜粋 The rumored Gundam Ace conversation *Extracted the Conan-related segment 「池田秀一×青山剛昌」（2010年３月号） Ikeda Shuuichi x Aoyama Gosho (2010 March issue)

*pops in* Oh man, this is getting exciting! I wonder who Haibara got *the vibe* from? Amuro or Sera? Seems like Amuro, but I guess that Sera is still possible. What the heck did Okiya notice ahead of him on page 15?! Sera, Amuro, and Vermouth are behind him! Oh, maybe he saw Amuro through the rear view mirror . . . ? From the namesake, it seems that Amuro is Bourbon, but it seems that he stumbled onto Conan and co., rather than actively searching for them like Sera - but if Vermouth was implying that Bourbon gained trust from Conan & co., it seems like Bourbon actively tried to pursue whoever it was that he was trying to gain trust from. If Bourbon isn't one of the three Gundam people, then who the heck is it and what the heck was Vermouth talking about?! So many questions . . .

Hello! Long time no see, guys! Just adding more evidence that Amuro Tohru is a reference to Amuro Ray from Gundam . . . Gosho does these little write-ups called "Sherry's Soliloquy" every week at the Conan official website, and this week's is this: 出たわね!!連邦の白い悪魔が・・・ Appeared!! The Federation's White Devil . . . Apparently Amuro Ray is referred to as "the Federation's White Devil" in the Bandai game, according to the Japanese Wikipedia site for Amuro Ray: ジオンからは、“赤い彗星”シャアと対比して連邦の白いヤツ（バンダイのゲーム作品では白い悪魔、書籍『機動戦士ガンダム 戦略戦術大図鑑』やバンプレストのゲーム作品では白き流星）と恐れられるようになる。 In Zion, [Amuro is] feared as the Federation's White Bastard ("White Devil" in the Bandai game, "White Comet" in Mobile Suit Gundam Illustrated Encyclopedia of Strategy and Tactics and in Banpresto's game). Because the 'Amuro' name and the reference to the voice actor wasn't enough already, ha ha.

In the recent OtonaFami interview, Gosho did mention that how Conan helps solve a case is similar to how a fictional cat called "Calico Cat Holmes (三毛猫ホームズ)" does the same, but he never said that he planned on Conan being about a cat, to my knowledge. I do know that Gosho started Conan because the editors asked him to start some kind of mystery series, since Shonen Sunday wanted to imitate the success of Kindaichi, ha ha. Sources: OtonaFami interview: Interview with Gosho and the creators of Kindaichi:

If you read some of Gosho's past interviews, you'll see that he's been rather forthcoming when it comes to spoilers. ^^; For example, in 2006 Gosho spilled that the name of the BO boss was mentioned already in the series in the Asahi evening newspaper.

Hmm, you're right, I need better sources - *googles, since apparently that's what the 2chan guy did to get all this info* It seems true that Gosho really did give a lecture at his former university (Nihon University College of Art), according to the university's website. This page talks about the Nichigei Award for Excellence, which Gosho apparently received this year - the website mentions that the award ceremony was moved from March 11th to April 8th due to the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami, so the ceremony happened this year. This website also mentions that the university plans on having the two winners (one of whom is Gosho) give a lecture later. (授賞式は、3月11日の東日本大震災から間もない4月8日、芸術学部新入生歓迎式プログラムとして江古田キャンパスの大ホールで行われ、ご出席いただいた林真理子氏からは、壇上から受賞の喜びとともに励ましの言葉が述べられました。また、仕事の都合で残念ながら欠席された青山剛昌氏は、ビデオで心あたたまるメッセージを届けてくださいました。お二人には後日、学内で講演を行っていただく予定です。) Then this fan website says that the lecture commemorating the Nichigei Award for Excellence is held on June 24th 2011 from 2pm at Nihon University College of Art Ekoda Hall. Apparently only university students could attend. (学部所属の学生さんのみ参加可能 ... 2011/06/24の14時から、日本大学芸術学部の江古田大ホールで日藝賞記念講演会として、青山先生の講演が行われます。) One more evidence for the lecture! The university's blog mentions that Gosho's lecture is on June 24th 2011. Here's the poster from that blog: Okay, the fact that the lecture happened on June 24th 2011 at Gosho's alma mater seems legit . . . BRB googling more. EDIT: Also, you have to admit that, while 2chan may not be 100% accurate, they do turn out to be mostly right most of the times. ^^; I mean, I learned about OtonaFami from there, and I always go to the 2chan Shonen Sunday Spoilers board to check for the latest spoilers on the latest Conan file, which has turned out to be pretty accurate so far. I'm also impressed that the lecture turned out to be true, as well. EDIT2: Found one evidence for claim that "Gosho said Agasa isn't BO boss" via Twitter! This 青木敬士 (Aoki Keishi) person is, according to his profile, the Associate Professor at Nihon University of Art, Literary Arts(Creative Writing), and apparently organized the lecture that Gosho gave on June 24th (this tweet says that, since he is organizing the lecture, his classes are cancelled for those days). He also lent his pen to Aoyama when Aoyama was signing signatures, and he got excited and jokingly tweeted that maybe he should take care not to wipe off Gosho's fingerprints (lol). Oh! I found Nihon University's profile on Aoki Keishi.

I can give a source - and it's from 2chan, essentially. ^^; This is my original post - and as I mentioned in that post, it's up to you to believe this spoiler or not. I can translate the entire post where I got that spoiler from, if you'd like:

I wonder if the landlady has Alzheimer's or something? She certainly can't seem to learn anything new. Although, I've just the Wikipedia article for Alzheimer's but I've never read anything about speaking loudly but not being deaf . . . Looks like Gosho got both the engineering brother and the doctoring brother to help with this case, ha ha!

Cool! Fujiwara at DCTP already translated the 2chan spoilers! Perfect, school just started for me so I don't have as much time anymore.

Since Conan knew not only that the case was a murder, he knew that the culprit was one of the three people who broke into the room, so my bet is that the blood-less key is the main basis of Conan's judgement. *Crosses fingers*

To be fair to Shinichi/Conan, I think that Gosho knows that Shinichi/Conan is too perfect. ^^; In Sherry's Soliloquy (apparently Gosho himself writes these), I would blame the anime/movie staff for making Conan too perfect, imo. EDIT: OOPS I mentioned some manga spoilers! Sorry!

Just read the DCTP scans! ^^ When the TV turned on and Higo showed up, I had to wonder if Conan missed a soccer/football game, ha ha. The game was probably a replay, or something. It was also funny how buckets were placed right next to the fire extinguishers! I like this fake Kogoro, he seems sweet. ^^

@Charala97: You're welcome! ^^

Spoilers! Note: The spoilers are extremely detailed, as usual. DO NOT READ IF YOU WANT TO WAIT UNTIL THE SCANSLATION COMES OUT! From 2chan Shonen Sunday Spoilers Thread Let me know if I make any translation mistakes / take too much liberty in the English. ^^ I'll also be guessing at the pronunciation of names . . .
