Overall a pretty fun way to end the show in general.

As for the finale, we get to see Kaito in action on last time. Bet his father is pretty proud of the things he's done up to this point. He'll surpass him soon. I'm going to miss this series tbh. 8/10.

Mother's opinions about other magicians. Then she wanted him to quit Kaito Kid, but he wanted to surpass the original.

Black vs. White talk w. Mamo's character and witch girl. Black ink, huh. Black ice was used on the coin... Old guy was black kid?

Mother gone again. Childhood girl wanting to team up to catch Kid at Kid's place (lol) with those two supportive characters.

The series ends with open ending (journey goes on), w. no sequel announcement.

The showdown was pretty nice indeed!

Nakamori's role is just so funny sometimes, minus 10 degrees with a huge fan behind him xD

Seeing the tricks being unfoiled by Kaito again, the use of ice by Corbeau was great.

Quite enjoyable with all the magic tricks that Kaito uses! 8/10, really want more Kaito and Aoko scenes.

Yup I predicted that the magic buster was Corbeau's assistant in the last episode discussion. :P That was a great trick. Man the thought that Corbeau put into the heist is quite amazing. Also we get clues that Corbeau is possibly Kaito's dad

HMMM...was really hoping they'd reveal more important stuff since in Detective Conan we rarely get an episode about Kaito and when we do, it's just a battle between him and Conan but ohwell, it still had a nice ending.

A pretty fun series overall. It was one of those I just watched to see how it'd go, and while it wasn't spectacular, not once did I feel it really drop in quality and it turned out to be a pleasant surprise, a solid 7/10. I wish it had more 2-3 episode stories though, they were the best parts of the series.

Magic Kaito is always fun when its KID vs anyone who's not Aoko's dad.

So Corbeau is his mom?

9/10 series.
Amazing episode.
I have a feeling Corbeau is either the mom or the dad depending on if the Dad is actually dead or not. Otherwise it has to be the mom since she did say "she was going back to Las Vegas".

I really enjoyed Magic Kaito 1412, it's a show that's good for anyone but the most enjoyable to DC fans.

Gonna miss this, it was really well directed and was more feel good than I'd expected it to be considering the subject matter. I'd pick up Conan but I'd be better off checking out the manga for more Kid.

I think it's pretty obvious who's who at this point. But my only concern is the reasons for a certain black-cloaked character's actions. Until they take down the criminal organization and find this "Pandora" gemstone, it still won't feel satisfactory to me. And that's why we need maor! Season 2 when!?

I have to admit I wasn't really feeling this one until Kaito outsmarted Corbeau towards the end. I guess I was just hoping it'd be more exciting and Kid involved like with the final confrontation with Conan. The implication that Corbeau is Kid's father was great though, leaving that mystery up in the air. After all, a good magician never shows his hand. I hate the open ending only because this looks like it's doomed to remain unfinished unless the manga continues (which at its pace isn't going to be this century).

But with that said, this turned out to be a real treat and I ended up enjoying every single heist. It constantly kept me at the edge of my seat to see what move Kaito would make next and really brought out the child in me. Initially I did pick this up because of the nostalgic atmosphere it carried with its old school Saturday morning cartoon presence. The absurd amount of suspension of disbelief is exactly what made it so fun. A single monocle serves as Kaito's disguise. That's straight up textbook with the cartoons I grew up on.

Magic Kaito also had some serious class going for it. It knew how to tap into the exquisite nature of the topics it dealt with and was filled with very clever tricks and situations. Another thing that brought on the whole old school cartoon vibe was how it remained cartoony but was also educational without the intent to teach.

Kaito, the man of the hour, really proved to be an awesome protagonist. He may very well have earned a spot in my all time favorite characters, I love how confident, mischievous, creative, and witty he ended up being.

8.5/10, I really do hope to see you next illusion, Kaito Kid!

I would have thought Corbeau is Kid's mother; his father should be dead for 8 years already and making him reappear will ruin Kid's motivations thus far a lot (unless the author decided that his father is a huge troll just like the father of a certain pint-sized detective -.-)

So it's over now :( Too bad this isn't the main manga of the creator. Considering the amount of chapters it has by now we probably need to wait at least another decade for another season if we even get one at all D:

Kid vs Corbeau was great! They didn't actually get in to action, but I like how they figured each other out.

So is Corbeau his mother? Mysterious Lady is Kaito Corbeau? I don't get it, but it was all fun even in the end. In fact, I'm gonna miss this. It was one hell of a ride with all of those impressive magic tricks and phantom thief tactics.

See you next illusion. - Kaito Kid

To me, Magic Kaito wasn't an anime I was watching for any seemingly complex narrative or to invoke any sort of enlightenment. I quite literally viewed every episode as a magic show I would attend every week for about half an hour. To watch the great Kaito Kid in action and to see what sort of trick he pulls out of his sleeves that week. I walked away from every show entertained and eagerly anticipating the next. Except this time, my anticipation has been replaced with sorrow as this is the final episode.

Regardless, Magic Kaito is an anime that I will truly hold dear because of how stupidly entertained I was while watching every episode. As Kaito once said, "As long as people desire it, the show will go on."

I hope to see you again one day, Kaito Kid.

This was a nice ending to a pretty good, fun series. I wasn't expecting too much of this series at the beginning, but it was actually a very entertaining watch and I'm glad I decided to watch it.

I'd give this series a 8/10 overall.

Took the words out of my mouth. Same with how I view anime in general.

I shall miss this series, always looked forward to the next episode. Seriously, the show must go on!
Edit: And I simply adore the Kid VS Conan episodes. A-1 Pictures did a splendid job with the fanservice (for once, I have no complaints) >w<

super easy watch but needed a break after 12 EPs straight and almost put it on hold

needed more kaito + aoko moments imo + a little fan service wouldn't hurt

3 possibilities for Corbeau's identity:

1. His mom
2. His mom + random assistant
3. His dad with his mom as assistant
4. His mom's new lover with her as assistant

----

2, 3 and 4 seem more plausible b/c Corbueau does have an assistant

So is his father alive after all. I mean how the black Kaito acted when the one with long mustache shoot at Kuraba-kun. I mean it looked a little like he were protecting him.

And not only that but that his mother knew that he had those heating pads. I mean the only one that could possible know this were the black Kaito and that he knew his mother. It makes actually sense (for me at least) that he is still alive as the Kaito Corbeau.

Anyways, it were a nice show. I liked it, but I think it had too many ep. And I felt the plot didn't go anywhere. It weren't before the last ep. we got to see the purpose of this series. He didn't found the reason behind his father's death (but I think that black kaito where his father ^^). So with that said, the soundtracks were pretty good and the animation were excellent too (except for those long nose, lol). So overall I think it doesn't deserve anything more than 6/10. ^^

I have watched both of them. The only difference you will see between this one and the 12.episode special is one ep. that were excluded from this version of Kaito Kid. Hmm, I think it's ep. 7. Very funny ep. because there Akako (the witch) are trying to cover for Kaito-kun and disguise herself as Kaito-kid. LOL

That's actually the only difference. Though I think they have done a better job here. And yes there some couple of scenes that have been changed or excluded. Or the rest is the same. :)

THIS AND LAST EPISODE ARE THE BEST EPISODES IN THE SERIES !!! NOT JUST CAUSE ITS ENTIRELY NEW, BUT HOW EXCITING IT IS !!! Magic Kaito 1412 is a FANTASTIC WATCH I WOULD ALWAYS ENJOY WATCHING, but for me the Specials WAS MORE AMAZING FOR THE OTHER EPISODES with SUPER GOOD Quality just like this 2 episodes.

The remake DEFINITELY HAS GREAT NOSTALGIA, and with NEWER ART and SEEING A DIFFERENT STYLE OF DIRECTING AND ART (cause it's A-1 Pictures?) makes it an INTERESTING REMAKE !!! AOKO is REALLY CUTE in the Remake <333 , continuing from how I already found her cute in the Specials, AND HER VOICE IN THIS SERIES IS REALLY CUTE <333 and I REALLY LOVE THIS CONCLUSIVE ENDING, REMAKE WELL WORTH WATCHING
