I’m not much of an anime fan, but I am definitely a fan of puzzle solving and deductive reasoning. This particular anime is full of logic and puzzling crimes that are not only difficult to solve, but have to be done by a character who doesn’t want to be discovered as smart as he is. The comedic value and innovation tends to get a little stale over time, but there’s enough spice thrown in with happenstance and recurring characters that the series manages to hold my attention.

Watch this anime if you like mysteries, but not if you like to solve them yourself. Sometimes you can guess the criminal before Conan, but usually it seems he always finds some hidden hint that isn’t revealed to the audience until he makes his accusation at the end of the show..
