me, whenever i figure a plot twist in a 20 year old anime: oh wow i am SO big brained rn i am such a genius

me, two minutes later, conpletely blindsided by a major plot twist:

#shut up danni's talking #danni liveblogs #danni liveblogs detco #gif #detco spoilers #look i was 100% sold on the idea that jodie = vermouth/belmont i did NOT peg dr araichi as her instead #episode 345 took me out w the whiplash i got enduring all those plot twists i did not see coming #but looking back i can DEFFO see where they came from and the foreshadowing ohhhhhh i can tell. #i can tell this isn't gonna be a blast through the content and forget abt it kind of thing my mind has been racing w fanfic aus #i wanna delve into the fanfic/fandom too but hnk i wanna avoid spoilers!!!!!! #also i don't know how the fandom categorises things that happen at different plot events etc #there's straight up like a thousand episodes and im only a third of the way through #anyways thats gotta be a good stop for today i can't remember how long i've been awake for but it feels like forever #i am exhausted #urgh this always happens when im home alone for more than a few days #fun fact: kogoro is legit my least favourite character and yet i relate to him immensely #me daydreaming of when i catch up/know every case; i cannot wait to write an au where shinichi gets credited for the cases he solved via him #either shinichi or conan idk which would be better bc shinichi being nowhere near the crimes solved them or a literal 6 year old #im leaning more to the six year old bc its fkn hilarious #that one episode where he defused a bomb in a major landmark and was credited for it as a 6 year old is so fkn funny #this guy had the whole city hostage and yet he was completely stopped by a 6 year old #yeah he has the mind of a 17 y old but c'mon he's physically 6 #this is my allure to this series which will win; hundreds of criminals or one determined 6 year old #if you bet against the 6 y old he's coming for your kneecaps

loving the addition of haibara to the kiddie conan group bc it turns it from one babysitter trying to desperately stop the kids from following him into danger to two adults doing their investigating job where one wants the kids to stay out of danger and tells them no with the expectation the other will agree and help stop them, but in actual fact she's just enabling the kids letting them put themselves in danger

#shut up danni's talking #danni liveblogs #danni liveblogs detco #(that's short for detective conan btw) #anyways i can't stop thinking abt an au where conan has to look after the kids while he's detectiving w all his gadgets #and the kids keep throwing themselves into the same danger that he is #and then i realise i've reinvented batman #regardless i'm loving this

its a small touch but i love how ran and shinichi's classmates all love him and tease them both affectionately. its v sweet

#shut up danni's talking #danni liveblogs detco #detco #im rewatching it again in hopes i manage to catch up to the important plot beats lol #i wanna read some fanfic but i can't let myself be spoiled!!!!!! #rn im on the mini arc where shinichi takes a test antidote and is big again for a lil while #its v sweet how much the school loves him like hell yes he's v cool and v dramatic i love him sm #he's a huge dork and i love him #that like. minute. of ran and shinichi in the classroom you can tell they all love him #'mrs kudo' fhcjskbfnf

another aspect i like abt detco is how sometimes conan doesn't even bother trying to prove the results of his investigation himself, he'll just gently guide the adults in the room to the conclusion. they're so caught up in the fact that the details suddenly align that they don't question what the fuck a literal six year old is doing hanging around the murder scene with a dead body still laying there

#shut up danni's talking #danni liveblogs #danni liveblogs detco #like sure conan can just do his regular thing where he'll pretend to be someone else and then explain it #but other times he's like hm no you've got this wrong how can i be a literal six year old but gently nudge them in the right direction #it's fascinating and i love it #also the fact that the adults forget abt the kid until the kid thinks they're getting derailed by the culprit is hilarious #also the ppl he's w all hearing abt smth going down and they turn away for a second and conan is just. gone. he's off

im fkn cackling at the fact that the metropolitan police love story plot starts w conan being involved either by chance or voluntarily i forget which but as it goes on conan is always accidentally getting wrapped up in this love story

#shut up danni #danni liveblogs #danni liveblogs detco #im on 7 i think rn the one w the singles party #miwako and takagi having a heart to heart and almost kissing while conan; kogoro and ran are all in the backseat is sending me #conan may have tried to help gently nudge these two together in the beginning but now he wants off this ride #i love them sm they're idiots and i love how they're v mission focus yet suddenly switch to their love drama its hilarious and v endearing
