Yes. The DCTP forums are better for long-term, focused, and guaranteed dicussion.

i'll follow Sera anywhere.

> tfw when Sera dethroned Haibara as the best girl

It was hard to accept but I had too

>>154751397
Yes, but i do it more for the murder methods then for MUH PLOT at this point.

Kogoro is the best character.

>>154751397
It's been 15 or so years since I have last watched an episode of it. I remember being a little spooked by the episode where they were in some cabin and the murdurer killed some guy with an axe while being all bandaged up.

How is this still on? Do families in Japan really gather together and watch Detective Conan in the evening?

>>154753606
You don't?

Another series where the worst girl has 100% chance of winning

How is it possible for authors to create side characters with better personalities and better chemistry with the Hero as a love interest than their main heroines?

>>154753676
20 years and running competitions tend to get stacked

>>154751397
Of course.

I have never seen a single episode of this

Is it worth it to start now or will I miss a bunch of references if I haven't watched previous seasons?

Here you go buddy. It's probably a good idea.
You skip no canon (as other lists would have you), and go probably fast.

It's a long climb no matter what, and the more you put in the more you will get out.

>>154756504
This is golden, thanks anon!

Reminder to follow 800 episode rule before you can really judge this show.

Wait a minute, since wtf did actual plot start happening in this show? I thought it was just Lupin with murder solving instead of stealing shit as the central plot.

>>154757972
Try actually watching the show.

>>154756504
Kill yourself serafag

>>154756504
What the fuck is that list? I don't understand.

>>154758002
I did when it first got dubbed. Put me to sleep most of the time. Then heard the plot point of getting returned to his proper age/fighting the evil org goes out the window and said eh.

>>154758220
>dubbed

Well there's your problem.

>>154758085
Barring the insane ordering of the first 5 seasons (simply to assist in reading manga in bulk) it downgrades episodes to chapters in the hope of saving time.

But it's determined by one's reading speed, so some instances may break even or worse.
The main positive of it is unlike most lists it skips absolutely nothing (except AOs).

Could be the worst thing ever, who knows.

>>154758381
Wouldn't it feel bad to go from anime to manga like that? You'd get too used to the manga fast pacing to go back to the anime but you'd also miss the songs and voices.

I want to get around watching the anime t bh

>>154751397
I'm sure half the japan will be murdered once this manga actually finished. Started reading when I was 7, 22 now.

>>154758430
Don't listen to that list.
Its garbage. Just watch the entire anime and read the entire manga.

>>154758452
I think I will

>>154758452
>and
calm down satan

>>154758472
If you have time to come shitpost on 4chan you have time to go do both.
I did.

>>154758430
Then it's not for you. Nobody is claiming it's a universal solution.

It's just another, proposed, way to go fast by cutting corners, but not cut the ones that matter.

>>154757972
>Wait a minute, since wtf did actual plot start happening in this show? I thought it was just Lupin with murder solving instead of stealing shit as the central plot.

There is actually a massive central story involving secret organizations and the F.B.I

>>154758530
>way to go fast

How about you enjoy the journey instead of worrying about the destination?

>>154758599
Because everybody is different.

Alternatively, that same list could be "how to read the manga but also watch the anime adaptations that are worth it (but not double up)".

>>154753676
The main heroine is usually created with the purpose of being the winner, which means no additional personality is needed to be developed to have a character that can meaningfully interact with the MC.

>>154758651
Yes but people that only care about getting to the end as fast as possible shouldn't be bothered with.
Those are the types of people that will die in their 40s from a heart attack.

>>154758660
There's nothing wrong with Ran

>>154758794
Or would rather minimize the time investment to catch up to recent? Then potentially work through the backlog?

There's a lot of scenarios, surely.

I'm not saying you're wrong.
As another avid fan who has invested multiples of a standard time's experience I know the journey is important.
This list covers that same journey but allows people who are interested in the series to acknowledge an alternative to make it a bit less overwhelming.

It's not holding a gun to their head. They don't have to follow it religiously. It's not the only attempt at what it seeks to do. It's not trying to be the best (except for keeping the canon intact).

From my perspective, you're trying to maintain the integrity of the complete experience, which is fine.
However, I'm trying to maintain the integrity of the canon while also trying to come close (but not 100%) to the experience you're preserving.

That's my opinion, anyway.

>>154751632
I'm a little sad just how irrelevant Haibara feels later on, but god do I love watching Sera. I'm always a little more excited when she's appears in an episode than if she didn't.

Though admittedly, just as I typed this I realized that while they're completely different characters, that's just how I felt back then when Haibara was still new. Her episodes were just so intriguing.
Now I'm a little sad again.

>>154759271
She's dumb as rocks?

There's a new non-yaoi doujin on Ex which is really ground breaking in terms of Conan.

>>154751397
I've been watching one episode per workday at lunch on my tablet for awhile now. Went on for about 300~ episodes, but then lost my job and took a year and a half break. Now I'm back on the train and up to around 425~.

I'll catch up eventually. Maybe.

>>154759392
>There's a new non-yaoi doujin on Ex which is really ground breaking in terms of Conan.

I find it hard to believe there are any new porn ideas for a 20 year old series

>>154758381
>AOs
what is this?

>>154759765
Anime original, filler, what have you.

Not necessarily bad cases, but in the interest of time since they're not canon (in regards to their source material: not the manga) you can cut out the 332+ of them and save around 138 hours of watching.

Sera is an overrated smelly boy.

I dropped Conan 9 years ago after something like 400-500 chapters. There's too much repetitiveness to slog through another 400 chapters just for some waifufaggotry, especially given what >>154753676 points out.

>>154760874

DESU if Conan was boiled down mostly to the black org stuff with occasional detective boys arc it would be amazing

Only the anime. But even then, I filter out the fillers. The quality of filler episodes have gone down the past decade.

Third worst "girl".

>>154762108
Don't know why, but I found most of the 800-830 filler comf as fuck.

Especially the waiting room one, wish it was more than one ep.

I started binging the series last year, but stopped ~170 episodes due to fatigue.

>170 episodes due to fatigue.

>it hasn't even been a year
Also, is Gin literally the only competent, non-traitorous henchman?

>>154764572
Yes. I think it's pretty much confirmed by now that Gin and Vermouth are the only non-moles in the Org. And Vermouth can't be called loyal anyway, so he's alone. Really makes us think what the fuck is the point of the Org to begin with, since people are just spying on each other.

Why is Rumi such an obvious red herring?

I binge watch like 20 episodes every few weeks/months. I'll never catch up.

>>154765809
Vodka is the boss.

>>154760929
The standalone cases were much better for the first couple hundred chapters, at which point I think the author changed his mind or was pressured to stretch the story out by the editor and the publishers, because the cases have gradually become less interesting.

>>154751397
I saw a recent 3 part episode with a woman who used Tomatoes in a bathtub to make it look like an urban legend killed the dude. I learned a cool science lesson from that episodes. I hope I keep learning new science stuff from the murder episodes

>are the movies ok if I have never watched/read a single chapter?
some movies will spoil you. also never watch movie 6 unless you want to watch all the movies or you just loved scooby doo and the cyber chase.

I like Kaito more. Aoko is also much better than Ran
