This Week’s Translation

光彦、元太、歩美ちゃんたちが、仮面ヤイバーが毎朝来ている公園があるって話を聞いたんだって!
ボクと灰原もその公園に行ってみたら、本当に仮面ヤイバーが…!?

神奈川県で蠢く“あの事件”へと繋がる、TVオリジナルミステリー!
「旋風のコスプレライダー」このあとすぐ!

The Detective Boys were talking about how they saw Kamen Yaiba coming to the park every morning. But, when Haibara and I went to go check it out, it was actually him!

An anime original mystery tied to that case in Kanagawa!

“The Cosplay Rider of the Wind” coming up next!

Today’s Episode

被害者 ー Victim

菜田 英夫(25)会社員
Saida Hideo (25) Office Worker

Ah, the obligatory anime original episode to promote this years movie. Was wondering how this episode was going to tie into the movie. And speaking of the movie, “Highway Fallen Angel” has hit a new record for the franchise: earned 1.13 billion yen on the first day! But let’s get on with today’s episode.

Was not expecting them to have matching Detective Boys jackets. Even Haibara is rocking one. Bit surprised she didn’t make Conan wear one.

I do wish that we had Chihaya show up to handle the motorcycle case. Even Takagi wanted her to show up and had a flashback. Unfortunately for him, Sato wasn’t feeling that at all and now Takagi is going to be in the investigation room soon (;^ω^).

It was nice that he was able to show up in Kamen Yaiba. Funny thing is the only reason why he sounds like Kamen Yaiba is because they have the same voice actor. On top of that, this voice actor, Wataru Takagi, also voices Genta and Detective Takagi (yes, they share the same first and last names). So he was doing four voice roles for this episode.

I also liked the shot where Conan pieces the puzzles together and Haibara is looking over to him like “ah, he’s got that look again”.

Next Episode is…

As for the Conan Hint: Carpet – 絨毯

Does this mean we might get an Aladdin reference, too?

Until next time 👋
