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

This Week’s Translation

投資会社の社長さんが、大きなお家の中で遺体で発見されたんだ!
密室状態だった現場で高木刑事たちが捜査を始めたら、被害者の身内の3人が次々と自分1人だけが犯人だって自首してきたんだ!

この中で嘘を言ってるのは一体誰…!?

TVオリジナル「私が犯人です」このあとすぐ!

— 江戸川コナン (@conan_file) May 9, 2026

A president of an investment firm was found dead in the mansion!
While Takagi and the others started investigating the locked room murder, 3 relatives stepped forward one by one claiming they are the culprit!

Who is lying and who is telling the truth?!

Anime original “I’m the Culprit” coming up next!

Today’s Episode

被害者　ー　Victim?

鎌田　義明（34）投資会社代表
Kamata Toshiaki (34) Investment Firm President

容疑者　ー　Suspects????

鎌田　一（65）義明の父
Kamata Hajime (65) Yoshiaki’s Father

鎌田　幸子（34）義明の妻
Kamata Sachiko (34) Yoshiaki’s Wife

鎌田　光正（30）義明の弟
Kamata Mitsumasa (60) Yoshiaki’s Younger Brother

三田村　恵子（34）会社員
Mitamura Keiko (34) Office Worker

This episode reminded me of the drama from soap operas. We start off with 3 people confessing to a murder only to bring in another suspect mid way through the episode. Have to give props to Ran for coming up with the relationship chart. Putting it together helped Conan figure out a deeper truth: Keiko’s father is actually Hajime. Keiko had the idea that she was dating Mitsumasa but I guess that’s out of the question now… right? Besides, the guy has a thing for his brother’s wife. And she accepted those feelings… this is some Jerry Springer type of mess (;^ω^).

Figured it would end up as a suicide but the guy just died due to unfortunate events. Really don’t understand why he’d keep the door locked knowing his heart condition is fatal. Nonetheless, he wasn’t the most stand up kinda guy. Judging his father for being fake yet profiting off his so called fraudulent character by living a good life, driving his wife to suicide due to his adulterous activities, and being a jerk to his little brother. Everyone seemed like they had a motive but they clammed up when Conan asked how they did it.

Found the episode entertaining overall. Conan even asked Ran what she thinks of people lying. I feel as though he asked partly due to his own lie to her. Four people lying to protect someone else. Kinda nice to see but surely they’ll get reprimanded for messing with the investigation.

Next Episode is…???

Looks like we got another break coming. For the next two weeks, Japan will be airing a remastered episode for the Trick vs Magic case.

Until next time 👋
