 Time for Trouble Great Fun reading !May 11, 2007
By John C. Hummel
"Midsomer fan boy"
As a " Senior" Adult finding the wonderly fun creations of Gosho Aoyama has been a wonderful adventure.
Where else can you find a 19 yr old super detective who becomes a First Grader who then lives with his girl friends family ( ah the wonders of youth!!) and has to solve crimes but give the credit to the bumbling detective who is his Girl Friends father.
That is the true magic of Japanise Anime! It is what is sooooo missing from most American writers today.
In this " case" Conan our now youthful detective must solve one of the most difficult cases of the series and ( to me at least) pulls Aoyama-San to a new level of creative writing while maintaining his great art work.
I also should note that Aoyama-San has a great way of doing him self " in" in each novel just to show how hard he works.
As # 17 shows we will all hope he continues in his own " doom" for many, many more cases.
FUN READING !!

 Better, but not better enough.May 30, 2008

Gosho Aoyama, Case Closed, vol. 17 (ViZ, 1997)
Well, that's it, for the moment at least. Vol. 17 was a definite improvement over 16, though I can't quite put my finger on why; there was some improved pace (and I can't remember the last time Aoyama came up with a single-chapter mystery, if ever), though the series' shortcoming were still out in full force here. I probably will end up continuing on with the series, but I'm going to give myself a few months off at this point so I can come back to it with, hopefully, a more objective eye. ***
