Detective Rohit 38 Report post Posted May 4, 2011 Hello Friends, I have been wondering that how did you all came across Detective Conan for the first time? Who told you about this amazing anime? From whom did you hear about it? In my case, i saw Detective Conan first time on a local channel in India! Actually my first episode was "Kogoro's Re-union" How about you all?

EdiblePencil 10 Report post Posted May 4, 2011 I've always enjoyed mystery books, so when I saw the cover with Conan in his Sherlock Holmes outfit, I was drawn in. Before that, I had assumed all manga was about young girls who fight dragons with unnaturally coloured hair. XD Then, two strangers at school told me to watch the anime version, which I did, and it was a good decision. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stopwatch 36 Report post Posted May 4, 2011 ^Nice I got into the series through fanfiction, weirdly enough. Basically, I was searching through a fanfic authors other fics (I think it was Ellen Brand) and I saw a oneshot from the Detective Conan fandom. I decided to read it and proceeded to love it, then, in order to make sense of some of the confusing aspects (APTX, the bowtie ect;) I googled it, which resulted in some, but not all the of the plot points spoilt and discovering DCTP. That was halfway through the London Case... :mrgreen: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hopes 237 Report post Posted May 4, 2011 My friend showed me Case Closed. I read the first few volumes and got scared of the blood. (I was in 5th or 6th grade). Then, last summer, I decided to watch all the episodes and read the manga. And so I did. First I had nightmares about being murdered, but then I was fine. SO NOW I LOVE IT!! :twisted: OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tsukiko 73 Report post Posted May 6, 2011 My friends read it so I decided to borrow the first volume from library. I was 12 and right after reading that I got traumas and I had to keep a pause. But about a year ago I was too curious to keep my fingers away from DC and I continued reading it. And I don't have any traumas anymore... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Misaki-chan 164 Report post Posted May 8, 2011 My mom told me about the show, since she knew that it was popular in Japan (if you're curious WHY she knew this, my mom's side of the family lives in Japan and she contacts them about once a week). Since I had JUST run out of ideas of anime to watch, I decided to watch the first episode on YouTube. I instantly loved it and finished all the episodes I could in about a month (It was around the Shiratori/Kobayashi episodes that I finished most of the previous episodes). So then I started reading the manga when I could online as I waited for the next episode. And that's about it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lia. 45 Report post Posted May 9, 2011 I was on vacation to Taiwan in the year 2006. I remember cuz there as a mini-earthquake when I was there. Bored in a hotel with three other kids, I had little choice but to turn on the TV. The show that was playing happened to be Detective Conan. The episode that was playing was the episode where Sato was to solve a case regarding her dad. I thought that Conan was a really smart kid and that Officer Sato was his mother After the holiday, I forgot about DC. One day, by chance I happened to find a DC movie. (Movie 11 to be exact.) I also found the 10 in 1 DC Movie Boxed Set. I watched the 6th movie: Phantom of Baker Street with my family. I liked the entire idea of DC and I was, frankly, addicted. A month later my dad told me about Haibara Ai, who also shrunk like Shinichi did. And then I found out about Case Closed. I made the librarian order it from the states. I read all of them, from Book 1 to Book 31. That's how I got addicted to DC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Senpai 1 Report post Posted May 9, 2011 I got into it through regular TV. :] There is a channel called "RTL II" here, it used to broadcast loads of good animes but it turned into sh#t. But anyway, it was about 10 years ago I think, I was 6/7 (OMG:Othatsalongtime,wanttobealittlechildagainsobadly) and well yeah. . . I was watching RTL II pretty often because of all the other Animes. And yeah. . . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D Conan 0 Report post Posted August 18, 2011 When I was about 7 or 8 I watched an episode that aired on TV. I was young so I guess I wasn't really into the show at that time so i basically forgot about it. Last month my friend Recommended me to watch, and after watching the first few episodes I got addicted to it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
