Conan Edogawa, the hero of the popular series Case Closed (originally Meitantei Conan, "Famous Detective Conan," 1996) is a high-school sleuth trapped in an elementary school body. Thugs involved in a blackmail payoff gave 17-year-old ace detective Jimmy Kudo a poison that turned him into a little boy. To disguise himself, Jimmy took the name of Conan Edogawa (from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Japanese mystery writer Ranpo Edogawa) and moved in with his former girlfriend Rachel Moore and her addled detective father Richard. With the help of some inventions from his friend Dr. Agasa, Conan/Jimmy applies his extraordinary powers of observation and deduction to solving baffling murders, only to see the credit go to Richard Moore. The writers do a good job of creating mini-mysteries that are different enough from each other to generate suspense. Only rarely do they repeat themselves--although an awful lot of phone lines got cut in those pre-cell days--or go over the top: In the two-part case "No Immunity For The Diplomat," a combination of alcohol and fever returns Jimmy to his proper form, but only briefly. But, as Conan complains in Episode #38, he never learns any more about the men who poisoned him. Case Closed ran for over 500 episodes (more than twice as many as Naruto), and American fans know that whenever Conan/Jimmy is on a case, "One Truth Prevails!" (Rated TV PG: minor violence, alcohol and tobacco use) --Charles Solomon
