Info
Language: French
Continents: Europe
No. of Episodes: 214, only 172 Broadcasted
No. of Volumes: 102 (as of November 25, 2023)
No. of Magic Kaito Volumes: 5
Published by: Kana

In France and other European French-speaking countries, Detective Conan (French: Détective Conan) manga got published in French by Kana since 1997, with 102 volumes available. The anime has been broadcasted in French since 2004 and is available on many TV channels and the streaming platform Animation Digital Network (ADN).

Even if the manga is still published quite regularly, the release of the anime was complicated, with uneven broadcasting on many TV channels, before ADN and the paid channels J-One, and then Mangas, resumed broadcasting the series in subtitled version in 2015, according to the Japanese broadcast. The first five movies were published by Kazé in direct to video between 2007 and 2009. More recently, Eurozoom released the movies 24, 25 and 26 on theaters, VOD, and Blu-ray.

Only the first 230 episodes (214 episodes in Japanese version), the first five movies, and movies 24, 25 and 26 were dubbed at time. While the anime and the latest movies have the same main voice cast, the first 5 movies were dubbed with a different cast by Kazé.

As of November 2023, the manga has reached Volume 102 and the previous volumes, including the first ones, are reprinted by Kana, with few corrections. Many translators have been working on the manga since the first publication of volume 1 on April 5, 1997, but it is Thibaud Desbief, Misato Raillard, Olivier Huet and Cyril Coppini (since volume 75) who worked the most to the french translation.

In the French version of Detective Conan, nearly all the characters have kept their Japanese names. A notable exception would be Megure, who is referred as Maigret in the manga and Mégur in the dubbed version of the first movie. Vermouth was also named Belmotte in her first appearance in volume 24 and the French dub of the anime.

Anime

Detective Conan made its French anime debut on Cartoon Network on January 4, 2004, where only the first season was dubbed. On January 3, 2005, the show stated to air to the general public on France 3's afternoon show, France Truc. The show quickly became a hit among young people as well as teenagers, scoring over 40% of the audience. Following the positive critical acclaim from the public, AB Studio went on to dub three more seasons to add variety to the original 30 episodes. The success of the series, however, was short lived, as concerned parents complained of the show's frequently depicted violence and gore. The show was pulled out of France 3 the December 16 2005.

Following the fans' demand to see Detective Conan back on TV, Cartoon Network announced that it would bring back the show in August 2006, along with at least fifty new episodes where Ai Haibara would finally be introduced in the French anime. After March 24, 2008 the channel Mangas show 30 episodes with the Japanese master. The episodes were not released in order, which is why many of the 214 episodes never aired. According to Ran's voice actress Marie-Line Landerwijn, only 196 episodes were dubbed until Episode 214.

J-One bought Conan in February 2015, and began broadcasting the episodes on TV in Japanese with French subtitles on the 6th of February, with episode 761.

In September 2018, French anime editor Blackbox announced the upcoming release of a Detective Conan box-set, complete with the twenty-two first movies and two TV Specials (The Disappearance of Conan Edogawa: The Worst Two Days in History and Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small). Then, Blackbox gave up on the box set and announced each movie would get released individually, and justified that with a dub for the movies in the work. But in January 2019, it was actually revealed Blackbox never had any plans for a dub. Additionally, the movies' release got postponed a lot, until early 2020 where each movie finally got released, both on Blu-ray and DVD. In late November 2020, Blackbox came back on their decision and released two boxes, one with the eleven first movies and the first TV special, and one with movies 12 to 22 and the second TV special.

In February 2021, French anime movies distributor Eurozoom announced the upcoming release of Movie 24 in theaters when they'd reopen, making it the first movie of the franchise to get a theatrical release in France. It's also confirmed on the same day the movie is getting a french dub. The movie was first set on April 21, 2021, then was delayed to May 26, as the theaters were still closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. During the same month, Eurozoom confirmed the return of the original anime voice actors of Conan, Shinichi, and Ai, and revealed the voice actor of Shuichi. Several days later, a trailer with the french dub appears on Twitter, confirming the return of Ran's voice actress. In early May, the full cast is revealed, showing that every voice actor of the original anime series returns on this movie, except notably for Takagi's voice actor Mathieu Moreau, who moved to France, and Kogoro and Megure's voice actor Emmanuel Liénart (who had codirected the series' dub), as he passed away in 2015.

In October 2020, the series' first episodes started airing on Amazon Prime Video. As of March 2022, all 214 french dubbed episodes of the series have been uploaded to the streaming service, with their original dub in a censored version, including the ones that were never aired on TV.

In September 2021, the 42 first episodes arrived on Netflix, with the recent japanese HD remaster in an uncensored version, along with new Shinichi recorded lines by Bruno Mullenaerts to replace the ones that got lost.

In December 2021, Eurozoom announced the release of Movie 25 in France and Belgium for May 2022. In March of that year, they announced the return of the previous movie's cast, but also the return of Mathieu Moreau as Takagi, as well as Nathalie Hugo as Sato, having voiced them in the original series, although Nathalie Hugo had to step out of the dub due to agenda problems, and was replaced by local voice actress Magaly Texeira. They also announced Rei Furuya's voice actor, Eric Legrand. The movie got a premiere on April 15, 2022 to coincide with its japanese release, and then a full release on May 18, 2022.

In May 2022, the episodes 43 to 84 arrived on Netflix, still with the japanese HD remaster.
In December 2021, Netflix announces a french dub for Zero's Tea Time and The Culprit Hanzawa coming in 2022. In July 2022, they show a preview for Zéro Tea's Time, with Eric Legrand reprising his Rei Furuya role from movie 25, and a new voice actress for Vermouth.

On July 13, 2023, The Story of Ai Haibara ~Black Iron Mystery Train~ compilation movie was prescreened in France with French subtitles and later made available online[1],[2]. As the previous movie did not do well in cinemas, the decision to broadcast movie 26 was met with uncertainty[3]. Movie 26 was announced via social media in February 2023[4] and the subtitled version of Movie 26: Black Iron Submarine was prescreened with subtitles on August 1st across main French cities[5]. The movie is officially released in cinemas the next day[6], but the movie is removed after one week after making poor sales, less than the previous one[7],[8].

In January 2024, ADN revealed that Detective Conan episodes would no longer be available for free on its platform and simulcast releases right after the original Japanese would only be available to "Premium" members[9],[10].
