Detective Conan

Protagonist: Kindaichi
Detective: Sera
Murderer: Vermouth

Any time there's a locked room I can never fucking figure out how they do it.

Perhaps you can share your personal opinions with us, OP. Or did you intend for this to be a recommendation thread?

Why are there so many repeats on the image, are they referring to different installations of their series?
UNGO S2 when?

Kindaichi cases are usually spread over more episodes (3-4 is pretty normal) so the suspects (not always 3 like most Conan cases) are developed more and it's more fun as a viewer to try and work out who did it.
Kindaichi really doesn't have as strong a plot as Conan though. In Conan you always have the Black Organization cases to look forward to but Kindaichi is mostly just murder of the week.
Overall, I think Conan is better.

Well, detective fiction is a popular genre in japan and asia in general but somehow not so much in the west. There are tons of mystery anime/vns coming out each year with Subete, Sakurako, Danganronpa and Rokka no Yuusha being the recent good ones, but I rarely see people talking about this genre as a whole, so I just want to know how you guys feel about it. Are you trying to solve the case while watching these shows or do you tend to sit back and watch how everything turns out.

I think you mean Case Closed, friend :^)
>>144518652
Case Closed is the English dub name Viz gave to the series. Detective Conan is its original name from Japan.
>>144520414
yes, but we're speaking English
therefore, it's Case Closed :^)
Best setting's got to be "We're somehow stuck in this goddamn mansion in the middle of nowhere with people dying one by one and no police until morning".
Almost always great cases.
Does Joker Game count?

Murder mysteries are popular in the West, they're just reskinned as crime drama shows like NCIS, CSI, or Law and Order.
