Forums - General - The support Case Closed Thread

One of my most favorite animes of all time is Case Closed. This series is huge in Japan with almost 600 episodes. The series was licensed by funimation who brought out some good english dubs for the series. I just found out about this anime 3 months ago and I am in love with it. However, Case Closed has turned out to be a faliure for Funimation. Most people watched it online or illegally downloaded the series. Funimation had stopped dubbing the series at episode 130. It is unfortunate because this series is true gem that we will not be able to enjoy. There is still hope however. If you are a fan of this series and have not bought a box set, I urge you to buy a season set or two. They include both japanese audio and english dubs. Also you get about 25 episodes per set which is about 600 minutes. On top of that a box set is only 17.99 at Rightstuf.com. That is actually a very generous price. Newcomers you can also enjoy this amazing series. If more people start buying the dvds there is a chance we can see season 6!

Hey, does his girlfriend ever find out he's the little kid?  I watched it on TV legally.

For the life I me I don't understand

A) Why he just doesn't tell her.

B) How she keeps falling for it.

C) Why she wouldn't just hook up with some other dude after like I dunno... 5 seasons.

well  from my friend who watch passed episode 130 he said as of 600 episodes she has not found out who Conan is. She always got so close but then Conan always finds a way to make her belueve that he is not jimmy. I don't know why he doesn't tell her actually. But so far the series is still good. My friend says the series never gets old and he wants it to go up all the way to 1000 episodes! I just finished my 1st season set actually and am planning on buying the rest of the season sets soon.

The world may never know.

 


But seriously. Words of Wisdom is at around episode 450. If anyone can, she'll know what happens.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Do you guys ever think there will be a season 6?

Always watched it when I was younger, but I wouldn't watch it now, because it has too many episodes.

There was simply a time where I gave up, mainly because they didn't touch the main plot for like 30 episodes in a row. I don't like shows where every episode is seperate and has no connection to any important plot.

Also stopped watching One Piece for similar reasons. It just feels like they're always finding relatively poor excuses to drag the storyline longer than necessary.

I understand what you mean but Case Closed is one of those animes which I feel doesn't need a main plot. You could watch each episode without knowing the backstory. I think they just added that central conflict to keep fans interested in the long run. Otherwise each episode can stand on its own. Like scoobey doo and other shows. However one piece and naruto ar another story.

Released in the Americas, no. FUNimation has publically stated that Detective Conan (Case Closed) is a failure, and they've given it several chances. At this point, unless sales explode, they are not going to get any more, even as a subbed-only release. There is an infintessimally small chance that a company like Nozomi might pick up some more for a subbed release, but I'd not hold your breath...

well to be fair funimation as a whole did not say case closed was a faliure. it was just a friendly interview between a guest a comicon and just one of the representatives. Funimations never had an official PR statement saying case closed was cancelled.



anyways can someone tell me how to embed video in the thread
