Simply a masterpiece!

Delve into the mind of one the greatest mangaka artists of the late-80's to early-90's era, whilst taking pleasure in his eccentric universe and fantastic storytelling. While this short was released almost 16 years ago--as of writing this review--, the legacy of Aoyama's great works carries on.
His distinctive art-style left many, to this day, pondering whether to count it as a welcomed gift to the animanga world, or as a defiant far cry from the industry-standard of "moe", which have made it susceptible to criticism.

The specials follow 7 episodes, with the 7th being an episode that details the process of making Meitantei Conan. ...

TL;DR Some interesting concepts. A refreshing break from Detective Conan

Gosho Aoyama's short stories collection is a collection of, well, short stories. There are seven stories in all, each of various length. Some runs for the full episode length while others run much shorter. Each of the stories are self-contained, although I like the fact that some of the stories are loosely connected in some ways.

I don't give it a 10 because the 'enjoyment' isn't consistent through every shortie.

You get to see other characters and interactions and possibilities at Aoyama-sensei universe.

Some of this stories are related to Conan, some aren't. Some are Awesome, and some are just your average anime tale (but with his characteristic style).

My most favorite one was 'Play it again'. First because of the characters, and second because I'm an old soul myself, therefore, I miss the old days when samurai and knight values mattered, and no one thought those values were 'outdated', or 'toxic' or boring. That one story was worth the watch of the whole ...
