Reader’s Question:
I have a question about Detective Conan. In the later part of the Halloween Bride movie, Amuro tells Conan something like, “That was a clever way to stop it,” referring to how Conan used a large soccer ball to prevent two liquids from mixing. There’s a flashback scene where
Hagi puts a baseball into a burst water pipe, but Amuro isn’t present in that flashback. Does Amuro know that Hagi fixed the water pipe with the baseball? If he does know, wouldn’t he find it strange that Conan’s age doesn’t match the time when Hagi fixed the pipe? I’ve only seen the movies and don’t really understand the scenes or settings in the anime, but from what I’ve gathered in the movies, it seems like Amuro doesn’t know that Conan is Shinichi. I’m curious about whether Amuro is aware of Hagi’s water pipe incident, and if he is, why he wouldn’t find Conan’s story odd. I’d love to hear your thoughts on these two points.
Detective Conan: The Curious Case of Amuro and Hagi
So, I was chatting with a friend the other day about Detective Conan, and we stumbled upon a pretty interesting question regarding the Halloween Bride movie. You know how Amuro, in that movie, comments on Conan’s cleverness when he uses a soccer ball to prevent two liquids from mixing? It got me thinking: does Amuro actually know about Hagi’s legendary trick with the baseball and the burst water pipe? Here’s the kicker: Hagi’s baseball moment is shown in a flashback, but Amuro isn’t even there! So, if he does know about it, wouldn’t that raise some eyebrows about Conan’s age not lining up with Hagi’s story? I mean, how can he not find it odd, right? What’s fascinating is that my friend pointed out the timeline of the movie release. The Halloween Bride was supposed to come out in 2021 but got pushed back a year due to the pandemic. During that delay, the script might have gone through some changes, which could explain why Amuro isn’t depicted as being aware of Hagi’s past actions in the film. In the end, it feels like the creators had to juggle a lot of moving parts. Then there’s the manga. The latest chapters show Amuro reflecting on Shinichi and realizing that Conan has a connection to him. It’s like a light bulb moment, and all of a sudden, it feels like Amuro is putting the pieces together. Yet, in the movie, he’s still in the dark about Conan’s true identity. It’s a bit of a rollercoaster, isn’t it? You know, when I watched the movie, I couldn’t help but chuckle at the clever ways Conan finds solutions to problems. I mean, who would think to use a soccer ball like that? It reminded me of those moments in life where you have to think outside the box, like when I accidentally showed up to a party an hour early and ended up helping the host set things up. I might have overindulged in snacks too, but hey, that’s part of the fun! At the end of the day, I’m left with so many questions about the continuity and the character dynamics in Conan. It’s that blend of comedy and mystery that keeps me hooked. I’d love to hear your thoughts on Amuro’s knowledge of Hagi’s baseball incident and what you think about Conan’s age in relation to everything.
