Another one of Urusawa's scripts. It wasn't as weird as his previous episode (genius restaurant). Feel as though his episodes are used as a reset because the next episode tends to be better (more normal) in comparison.

A straightforward case. The culprits weren't too bright.
Could've got revenge some other way by destroying his life or something but okay.

The scene of the crime kind of reminded me of Great Gatsby a bit.

The guy was going on about making even more money and that pool from the book was supposed to symbolize wealth so I guess that works.

On another note, considering Conan and them are on the bridge, how did those two think hiding behind some bushes would help?

Then again these two had the brilliant idea of leaving evidence behind that would come back to bite them later. And one of them is a lawyer for crying out loud XD.

Notice: I read most manga in Japanese now so I'm not sure where you can read in English. Sorry in advance.

A pretty weak episode with a crime of passion, in my opinion. Those two attempted murderers fawning over the murderer were complete simps.

I hated it. Most of the episode was bad in a boring way, but during the culprit's confession, it started to get weird (the student paparazzi, the killing scene, the descending of the steps with her two acolytes...), and I started to wonder if this wasn't one of that guy's stories that get really freaky and cringeworthy; turns out it is!

I was embarrassed to be watching this, and the case itself didn't help as it was easily solved (it's instantly apparent that it's an "e" on the guy's neck).

Also, I have to say I was particularly disappointed since we didn't get an episode last week.

AI written, senile dementia, substance abuse, the file with the script was corrupted, fused with another file and contained pages from another show...there must be some logical explanation.

Whoever is writing the filler episodes these days needs to be shot from a cannon into...someplace where they can't keep submitting scripts. This was awful.

This episode was very weird... In a specific way. There was also much wrong with it (but to be fair I zoned out a little bit so it could be the reason too, but I doubt it).

Not even the fact it was obvious who would be victim and who would be the (real) culprit. But then her motive like... She might be among the view that are actually psycho. She could have just said NO. This was very odd to watch.

As if you'd let someone hold stealing a little Money over your head for 20+ Years.
These cases are getting worse.
