why would people do this?

Who doesn't want to be a cool, handsome genius detective with girls fawning over him? Also, he's the coolest kat in the school thanks to his maturity and intelligence.

>>122879992

You always subconsciously identfy yourself with EVERY character.

There is no self insertion.

>>122879930

No, the earliest self-insert Gary Stu is Dante from a very old bible fanfiction called Divine Comedy. None can top that bullshit character.

>>122879930
Kaito is even earlier.

>>122879930
>the first self-insert Gary Stu?
Is he from 6000 BC?
No?
Then you're retarded.

I would say Beowolf beat him by a good 10,000 years but fuck me what do I know? Im pretty sure hes not even close the first anime mary/gary, but Im not going to put in the effort.

>>122880416
And that's called a classic.
What a world we live in.

I don't think most people would self-insert themselves as a little boy, even if he is a cute one.

This series is so old he should be back to being a grown ass man already.

If God made man in his own image, doesn't that mean that man is the first self insert? What if God created the universe as his shitty OC and we're the self insert protagonist that will conquer the universe and be better than all of the aliens at everything we do? What if our entire system of societal morals is God moralfagging hard and using his self insert to deliver a ham-fisted message about how the righteous always win? His work might even be called out for being shitty by other infinitely powerful incomprehensible beings as we speak.

So, how is the Kaito anime anyways? He was pretty fun when he appeared in DC.

>>122904021
I like when the series drops hints Kogoro is not retarded and actually a brilliant detective but like Mycroft, he is just lazy as fuck and jumps at the first conclusion he draws just to close the case.

>>122904021
>Kogoro doesn't act like a potato
Best parts of the series
>>122904109
The Kaito anime has the Ran proto type which is miles better and Kaito is much more interresting as a MC than conan. Although the real Magic scenes are pretty retarded.
Shame they hate Physics

>>122904109
Most of the chapters from the original manga are adapted faithfully but some shit had to be changed to reflect modern times, like Kaitou's date with Aoko is no longer an E.T. movie but some sentai parody of The Avengers

>>122904109

It's enjoyable enough. My only real issues is that some of the magic he does is outright unbelievable whereas in Detective Conan they stick to more realistic stuff since Shinichi has to figure the tricks out.

Also its a 50+ episode anime apparently so the plot moves as fast as DC's does.

>>122904210
The CGI in the Kaito anime is really awful

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkTT4EjjcAc

>>122904276
>more realistic stuff
None of it is realistic.
Now I know you didn't actually say that it was realistic, I just want to put an emphasis on the fact that it really is not.

>>122899348
It even became a running gag at this point. Megure asks Kogoro to just stay home and never leave the house again.

>>122899348
the weird thing about detective conan is: it's really cool, but you can only read this much in a row before it gets repetitive, but you need to read at least that much in order to get invested

>>122905527
Another strange thing is that its is quite repetitive despite being a completely different mystery everytime, but figuring out a case bfore conan makes one feel like a genius

>>122905780
>figuring out a case bfore conan makes one feel like a genius
Figuring out how they did it would be impossible since you don't get the key clues. At best you'd be able to make a guess (from the mangaka's habits).
But it's pretty simple to deduce the killer, sometimes even before they kill anybody.

>>122905780
It's a shame, the viewer can't see some details sometimes. But I think that isn't even the case anymore.
