Scar Akai 65 Report post Posted January 7, 2011 If he were to regain his body back, how will he -catch up in his studies -retake the national tests(we know that they had a History exam at vol 35 and a national mock exam at vol36 which means that she should've taken the national exams soon after that ) -etc. Will he need to stay at that grade when all his friends will be promoted to the next level as he didn't take the tests which will make his marks 0 as national tests cannot be retaken unless there is something very important. Let's discuss the possibilities of anything including his explanation to Ran and all that here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TML 18 Report post Posted January 7, 2011 Let me first remind everyone that DC, like many other animated TV shows, uses something called a "floating timeline" where characters always stay at the same age regardless of how many years have passed by in real life. In the US, there is a cartoon series called "The Simpsons" where the main characters have stayed in the same elementary school grade levels (4 and 2) despite the series going through four different US presidents (41 through 44). On the other hand, if the issue of Shinichi's studies were to be addressed, I would consider giving him an honorary diploma/degree upon learning of what he went through.

Emy Ulfsdotter 6 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 I have actually been thinking of this, there is the possibility that he'll quit school and start to work as a detective. But I hope not, I don't think quitting school is a good option. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scar Akai 65 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 Yea! He should at his get himself into university... He can still choose a subject which will let him l earn about things related Τ☺ being detectives. Like type of poisons, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShinChan 1 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 I don't think he needs to study. :grin: He's very smart. :-P But the only thing for sure is, He will propose to Ran. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YES YES HE WILL HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAAHA okay on topic I am pretty sure Gosho made a frozen timeline so that when Shinchi goes back to his normal life nothing would change he'll go to school like if nothing happened Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scar Akai 65 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 Yes... I guess that aoyama will do that type of lame ending. As if no time have passed... And all the exams that he have missed won't be taken into considerate at all Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pr1me 101 15 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 As far as I know one of the exams he missed was a moshi-exam. Those are exams high schoolers take (or the high school makes them take) in order to get used to how college entrance exams are. They don't count towards anyone's grades (I think that varies by schools though), plus Shinichi's still a second year High Schooler, he's got one more schoolyear left and that schoolyear is when exams really count. I think he'd go back to normal by then though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scar Akai 65 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 even in real life you can just retake the exams! But those tests we are talking about are those exams that you take together with all other schools which is a country exam. If you miss it , you can't retake it unless it's the fault of the examination center... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let's discuss the possibilities of anything including his explanation to Ran and all that here. The stuff Shinichi missed out on will hit him like a load of bricks. That won't be good, not at all. It'd be chaos as everyone tries to get him caught up while he'd took years of elementary education. Heck, that wouldn't be bad. That'd be fun to watch! And then his secret would get out. After all, how wouldn't it get out? And Hattori will tease him... Ran will kill him (for the hot spring incident and more...) Heck, that'd be fun to watch too!

You can do the same with most U.S statewide tests. That happened to me with the (see spoiler cause I don't like giving information of my current location). The thing is, is it the same with Japanese nationwide tests? CSAP (Now why did I even tell you?) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Emy Ulfsdotter 6 Report post Posted January 11, 2011 Don't you have nationwide tests in USA? it's been years since i took the national tests, and I didn't dare miss them, but if I remember correctly one of my friends did and she just had to take them later, but I think there is a deadline. I don't know if the rules are the same in Japan, however in Shinichi's case it wouldn't surprise me if it's never addressed, maybe we'll see a funny scene with him sitting behind a mountain of homework.

I don know what to call it since I'm not familiar with your school system but anyway, I was 16 and i had a very good score on the English parts of the national tests, so I basically went from the lowest grade to the highest. It doesn't seem very nice of them to give you a test if you can't raise your grades by taking it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
