It was a nice promo on Japanese marine with some "fanservices" to those couples.



And as expected, Movie 18 was also announced for April 2014 at the end as well as Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: the Movie.

The Moonlighters have just released the english subtitled of this movie.

This was a very good movie. An significant improvement over movie 16.
Armageddon was yesterday, today we have a problem.

Wow, Ran was pretty kick ass in this film. Had a lot more action than I expected, especially from Ran who usually needs the saving. Hope we see more of this side of her instead of just a kick or two every hundred episodes.

Edit: Forgot the mention; when the heck did the prof or Conan upgrade the inflatable soccer ball belt? That thing hit like a frozen turkey being fired out of a canon...that bounces.

Kazuha's ear-splitting cries were pretty amusing. She should do it more often...it'll be an endearing character trait.

Nanami-san reminded me of Sato-san a lot for some reason. Maybe it's her demeanour.

Can't wait for Movie 18!

That fight scene was quite nice with Ran owning X.

And loved seeing Heiji x Kazuha moments :D
I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN

I was pretty content with the movie.
X's identity... well I thought that was a weak point since it was pretty clear who he was. =(

But I'm glad they did a better job with Ran this time. Yes, she


I was pretty disappointed they didn't even show how they visited Ran or something after the credits. =_= That was kinda disappointing.

Well the wait definitely paid off...., this was a solid Detective Conan movie. It was enjoyable and entertaining and held true to what I have come to expect from the franchise.

My only criticism of this movie was the fact that Ran could fight on equal terms with a highly trained spy..... A 17 year old black belt girl can somehow land punches and kicks on a highly skilled and trained spy??? Yea that makes perfect sense to me....

Overall solid and I applaud that they didn't use a bomb as the main focus like most of the other movies. I really wish though, that they can go a movie or even an episode without having loud crying. They're doing it on purpose, putting screeching crying, I don't know why, torture maybe.
But they sure did overdo it with the small things this time. The business cards, the watch, etc.

The kids are so annoying especially Yuki. I know they're trying to appeal to a younger audience but damn please keep their screen time to a minimum. Sonoko was also really irritating at the end of the movie. Over 700 episodes in, 17 movies and a bunch of OVAs Conan has proven himself time and time again and they still doubt him and brush him off?!?! 7/10 for me.

To be fair, they think he is a normal everyday 7 year old who says shit that leads to good points. Conan is not supposed to stand out to the normal people, only those who are in his league notice him, like the JDF lady. So i can understand they not taking him seriously...., but i do agree with you, the fucking kids and Sonoko are useless and irritating (I skip any episodes that they are the main theme in). The creators need to do some demographic work on DC and realize their audience is no longer young children but a large portion of the mature anime community as well.

I enjoyed this! Was a bit boring at some parts, but action scenes were so cool. :) Seriously, DC's animation has improved a lot, esp in this movie. I liked how the small things (Kogoro's shiny business cards, Ran's borrowed watch etc) actually mattered at the end. I thought it was just irrelevant parts, but it wasn't! Mystery was good too, even if I spoiled myself by reading the Wiki summary... -u-

Final rating: borderline 8/10 because I quite enjoyed the last half.

Also, what's up with Nanami's eyebrows? It's like Kagami's forkbrows all over again xD

It was a more or less good movie.
They tried to put everything in one movie: action, mystery, fight...
Ran was a little bit stupid during the fight (she could have run with Yuki), but the guy she was fighting with saved her in the end. In the end of the movie they were busy showing some off-topic pictures, but forgot about Ran.
Also, it seems that there were two unrelated stories. The thing I learned from this movie is that you have to wait 7 months or more after the airing date in order to watch it.
And I didn't know that Hattori's seiyuu is from Osaka.

It was terrible...5/10 at most. They make them more retarded every year. I wondered what happened to the old conan when there was blood everywhere and the plot wasn't written by a 10 year old boy.

I didnt quite like it, especially the timing of its release with the current upheaval in the china sea... feels more political with "foreign spies" and "military secrets" than what I'd expect with a conan film, changing the timeless classics with a more politically charged theme.
Maybe it fits well with a japanese audience, but it seriously will alienate international audiences.
Hope the next movie will go back to the good old formula.

I actually enjoyed more the previous movie. This one was much more consistent, but with this kind of plot, I still preferred the Eleventh Striker. Also, that scream? Please, no, just no.

One thing that's bothering me is what Haibara and Hakase were doing wherever they were. Besides, Hakase said "the talk was much easier because Ai-kun was here" or something like that. Is it explained on episode 694? Because reading its summary, it didn't seem like it would explain it.

Finally bothered to watch it and I doubt the next one is going to surpass it. I really did like this one.
I wish it was longer. The opening part was very weak, didn't have Heiji in there or anything and was random, after that the time just flew by while watching it.

This movie had some parts from the previous movies like Agasa's riddle but this is the first movie without Shiratori :o

What I really liked were all the secret agent acts from Conan but to costs of the awesome stunts.

I think this movie was really good, it never bored me :3

This was one of the best movies from the past 5 years in the franchise. Loved the military background and the Kazuha and Heiji scenes too.

I also enjoyed Eleventh Striker a lot more than this one. It has something that just made it more enjoyable while this one was more... on the trying too hard and laid-back at points. It was nice to see Heiji and something other bombs, but it wasn't as engaging or exciting. You know who the spy is and the killer and mystery are pretty dull and silly.

But, the animation was (mostly) very nice with this one.

I had to roll my eyes at the Shinichi-Ran drama in the water. That was trying too hard. Writers should've let her win that fight with X.


Pretty much what I thought and did. Another case of overdramatic romantic garbage that the writers felt necessary to throw in.

i didn't really like this move. not because it was bad, but because i didn't really care about all the stuff it included, like talk about engineering and how a boat works, spies, the possibility of a war between different nations, naval forces etc. i just don't care about such stuff at all.

i do liked the end scene where they were looking for ran and the fighting scene with her, though.

and one thing i have to praise is how the quality of the animation improves every year. i already noticed that during the last movies, but wow, that one was really amazing. not just the 3d effects (and you can probably argue if it fits conan or not), but the animation. just take a look at the fight where ran used karate on x. it looked really great.

now i'm really hpyed for the next movie! because damn boy, my body is so ready for some akai and black organization *u* i hope i don't have to wait too long for the subs ;A;

As always the final kick of the football by Conan was abit over the top, especially since it lifted the spy back to the top of the deck. (Should have killed the guy or broken alot of ribs).

Ran not running for help was a bit puzzling, But as always she was cool. I enjoyed watching more of Hattori and Kazuha's relationship.

The collaboration with the SDF and the police, was also pretty cool.
The fact no mention of the origin of the spy was well done, could have alienated fans from neighbor Asian nations, Korea, China. Etc etc. Though in reality it felt like it was already pointing fingers.

Seeing Conan being troubled. and the fact he thought he failed was new.

Though it had its enjoyable moments, It did feel a bit less conanish.

Ran's fight scene was the best part. It was also the only part worth watching. Too bad the plot didn't let her win.

Conan's rasengan soccer ball was ridiculous.

Kids crying is one thing but Kazuha's was just ridiculous. Nice to see Ran pull out her super sentai moves. The third mystery was kind of unnecessary I thought.

Overall the movie was just a military salute, not bad though. 6/10

Same the first half kind of drags but at least the second half tries to make up for it with action and drama. That's the only reason why I ended up giving it a 7 instead of a 6.

First hour was really boring. Just some sailors and police people talking like non-stop.
But the last 35-40 minutes were so good. The animation, the action, the emotions, the mistery - all top notch.
The movie felt more like Aegis ship PV than DC movie.

Best mystery from Conan's movies for sure, I almost thought it was on Kindaichi's level.


In most cases, the MAL Average Scores don't mean anything, here is a question: were the works made before 2000 all shit?
Why are they so damn scarce in the Top 50? Think about how MAL is quite literally a filtered amount of the Anime fanbase.

Here's a timeline of the Top 15 in which you can check that, almost always, the scores are affected by the freshness, popularity and other factors that have nothing to do with quality.
