This one better get subbed. The 1997 TV series is stalled since episode 14 I believe. This is great news.

Very interested in this one. Kindaichi is the first detective manga that I read and loved before Detective Conan, thus due to my bias I think it's better than Conan. Will be looking forward to this one.

Perhaps if these OVAs get enough attention, fansubbers would consider subbing the old TV series.

I don't have high hopes for that (unfortunately) but it would be sweeeeeet~

FUCK YES !!! Kindaichi > Conan . Their manga is awesome and it ain't dragging like detective conan, take a look at how many volumes Detective Conan has , not to mention their anime episodes .....its over 650 ? That's worse than all shounen anime . Tsk
Actually glad that nepal is facing disaster

Best Witten Detective Story in anime and manga

so well written some times makes you tiink iyur reading a Saburo Koichi Novel in manga form
"If you tremble with indignation at every injustice, then you are a comrade of mine"

When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one
For the Union makes us strong
