Welcome! MeitanteiBunshou here with some thoughts on today’s Detective Conan.

This Week’s Translation

大井弁護士が小五郎のおじさんに持ってきたのは、京都の港町で起きた殺人事件の調査みたい。

行方不明になった友達を探してた人たちに突然、海のほうから浦島太郎の歌が聞こえて、聞こえてきた方向からボートが流れて来たんだって。その中には探してた友達の白髪になった遺体と、亀の甲羅、玉手箱が! 地元には浦島太郎の伝説があって、その呪いだっていうウワサが…!?

TVオリジナル 「ガラスの水面(前編)」このあとすぐ!

— 江戸川コナン (@conan_file) September 6, 2025

Lawyer Oi requested Kogoro to look into a case at a port town in Kyoto.

People were out looking for a missing friend when they suddenly heard Urashima Taro’s song coming from the sea as a boat drifted closer to them. And what they found inside, was their friend dead with snow white hair, a turtle shell on his back and a jeweled box! Urashima Taro is a local legend in this town and rumor has it that this was a curse!

Anime original “The Glassy Water’s Surface (Part One)” is coming up next!

Today’s Episode

被害者　ー　Victim

山岡　武史（25）漁師
Yamaoka Takeshi (25) Fisherman

容疑者　ー　Suspects

松山　博信 （28）漁師
Matsuyama Hironobu (28) Fisherman

西野　美駒　（26）旅館経営
Nishino Miku (26) Ryokan Manager

富樫　瞳　（24）カフェ経営
Togashi Hitomi (24) Cafe Manager

上川　明秀　（53）神主
Kamikawa Akihide (53) Head Priest

This two-parter case is feeling like a mystery tour episode. Plus a reference to Urashima Taro!

Multiple suspects, a secret island, and old faces showing back up. Surprised to see Hiroki Oi and Ayanokoji show up in this. Haven’t seen Hiroki since “The Boiled Fugu Mystery Tour Showdown” and Ayanokoji since “Kaiju Gomera vs. Kamen Yaiba”. At least Conan won’t have to sneak around much considering these guys know who is the real detective. I mean darn Kogoro didn’t even notice they were being followed. Then again, I guess none of them caught on to the next person tailing them.

It’s a shame what happened to Hitomi. Playing at detective can get you into some messy situations. Perhaps it would have been best for Kogoro to take her on so she wouldn’t go snooping around alone. That way he could keep an eye on her and she could get her vengeance that she wanted for her ex.

I am curious about that island. It would be interesting to see if Takeshi was heading there to look for his brother. Maybe he thought that he was there and got amnesia or something. Or at least he wanted to see if his brother’s body was there. I do fear if he ended up going there, he probably found something he wasn’t supposed to and got snuffed out because of it. And that small box still being missing…?

So Hitomi is dead, Nishino has an alibi, but what about the other suspects?

Next Episode is…

As for the Conan Hint: Noctiluca scintillans – 夜光虫

Until next time 👋
