| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This Mary girl is pretty outgoing. I'm not sure what this anime is trying to be it has a weird humor style of storytelling. John should also be more on guard if he doesn't want to get attacked. |
 |
| This show's depiction of lgbt people is yikes. |
| Mary's.. sister huh.. whatever happened to John at the end there. F James is still a bit of a mystery. I think it would be more enjoyable if I actually read some Sherlock but I have not a singke clue It's kind of comedy x mystery with a very weird setting. I don't dislike it but guess I won't get 'the real experience' here |

| Well, that was a... unique OP. So that kid is James Moriarty. |
 |
| I like this anime. The cases are pretty predictable but it's still a fun show to watch so far. Those two sisters though lol. Im looking forward to the development between Watson, Sherlock, and other detectives throughout the series. |

| The most ridiculous version of Sherlock Holmes ever. OP is weird, wtf ? Sherlock looks more like a homeless than a detective. |
 |
| This plot twist at the end of the first episode was clever, because now Watson could get close to Sherlock, and not make it a plot convenience. |

| I had fun with this episode too. I enjoy the wackiness of it. I also really dig the opening and ending. OP is very stylish, weird and I really dig the jazz. From these two episodes I assume the cases will be mostly comedic in the beginning that will be used to introduce and flash out the cast a bit, as well as to get us familiar with the setting. Then when Watson's case starts it will switch to serious arc. |
| I have been enjoying this anime so far. It's different, it's wacky, but it's quite fun to watch. I really loved the opening. Fits the aura of the show really well. |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| The pacing of the case was just perfect. Quite refreshing opening and ending themes too. James' introduction was weird but at least he's not Milky Holmes' Moriarty. |
 |
Raging-Man said: This show's depiction of lgbt people is yikes. Yep, and you can say that again. |
| This week case was so not so hard to solve, one you saw the concrete on the part-time girl everything was clear. I hope that they will soon stop that "weekly mystery to solve" episodic approach because it will be boarding AF in few episodes/weeks. Also F for Watson. |
 |
| Sherlock's rakugo is really cool, and fortunately it seems to be a recurring thing. Poor Watson though, he got the short end of the stick. But at least James seems to be his ally, and he helped him to help Sherlock. I hope Fujiko's dreams come true too. It was cruel to toy with her like that, let alone to open a hole in her shop. lol |
 |
| This show's got some style. I love it. I hope we get to see the other detective's perspective soon as well |
| The wackiness continues. Such a wild cast of characters. I'm surprised to hear these stories are actually based on the original Sherlock Holmes material. I've never once read/watched anything Sherlock before, but it's cool to know. The OP was pretty unique. I quite liked it. |
| The last bar scene was hilarious, poor Watson for getting cornered like that! Mary is a naughty one, she didn't even intervene. |

| This anime does a lot of things: wacky style, somewhat alternative/unrealistic setting, bringing Sherlock into modern times, bringing Sherlock into that alternative world, offering a certain level of caricature/parody of several genres and locations and people - of archetypes, really... It is a weird mixture, really, and it might indeed turn out to be too much for some viewers. But I urge everyone watching: don't take seriously. The anime sure doesn't take itself seriously, after all, and that's where its entertainment lies: that self-awareness of its over-the-top ridiculous shenanigans. |
| This case was pretty much predictbale and I really hope all the upcoming cases dun turn out to be like this. Also lol John should really be on guard more or he won't survive in this area for long. |
 |
| Interesting choice to twist the setting but not the mystery. But the characters keep it fresh and competition structure can be interesting. The Irregulars girl was great, and all the detectives have their unique flair as well. Especially like Mary's look. |
| Sieg Zeon! |

| Basically Shelock Holmes Main Story But All The Characters Are Weird xdddddd lmao Wtf with the OP That case was basic af and there's no need of budget rakugo in the end to explain it I hope it will improve in the next episodes |
 |
| When the guy at the woman's audition hired her for her mole, I immediately laughed; this is 'The Red-Headed League'!! They actually made that disastrously crazy story even crazier. Moriarty is acting strange. He is cute, but I know enough about Sherlock Holmes to know he can't be trusted. |

That's why I'm enjoying this anime, I'm not taking it seriously and just having fun, no analyzing or comparing the characters to the original literary ones (though I found it very amusing that Moriarty is Sherlock's friend here knowing how it is in the books, that was hilarious; though who knows if that'll change at some point, it would be interesting). It clearly is meant to be watched like this. Reminds me of Kekkai Sensen in a way. |

| I knew it! I knew Mary's 'onii-san' was actually an 'onee-san'! hehe I've got a feeling that this whole 'Moriarty is Sherlock's friend' thing is going to come crashing down by the end of the series... Moriarty is shady af I have to say, the op is such an awesome tune! |

Not spoiling it for those who don't know. justuday said: yeahhh I was thinking about who that kid was in last episode . But didn't expect him to be frickin James Moriarty. ShyGuyDY said: THAT KID IS MORIARTY?! What? How?! Wha...! What does this all mean? Is that an alternate universe or is he gonna turn heel later, what the frickety frick?! I know right? xD My reaction as well. I don't trust him one bit. And fellow SH fans already know why. Moriarty being a teen was already announced haha, I wonder if the studio has planned a The Final Problem parody or not. Man it will be hella fun pitting adult Sherlock against kid Moriarty xD |

This was pointed out by a person from kabukicho sherlock subreddit. I haven't finished the entire Casebook series yet so I missed it entirely. |
| Ugh, unless they do something interesting with Moriarty in the future I see no reason to continue the show. |

Really? I would almost be afraid to ask them how it'd taste ;) |
|
Humans can do anything in this world so definitely someone would be able to make Sherlocks dish no problem. I could imagine them using rice krispies with dye as the pills xD |
| I know it's only 2 episodes in but I hope the "case of the week" thing doesn't last too long. The show could potentially get stale if that's the case. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| everything about this show is so weird and i love it. good refresher on sherlock |
| there are really some diverse characters in this show... hmmm |

But the novel and even the tv series is bunch of collection of short stories. Although yeah 23 minutes is very short length to create a good mystery. |
