The wildly popular Case Closed (“Case Closed” is the English rendering of Meitantei Conan series) leapt onto the world stage first as a manga in 1994, then as an anime in 1996. As popular as ever today, the 26th major motion picture, Detective Conan: Black Iron Submarine, is scheduled to hit the big screen from April 14 this year. From children to adults, no matter from what angle you look at it, the world of Detective Conan is always fun for people of all ages.
