Jan 3, 2026 (announced Sept 19, 2025): To celebrate 30th Anniversary of the anime: 1 hour special: Detective Conan
Episode "ZERO" Kudo Shinichi Suizokukan Jihen (Kudo Shinichi Aquarium Case). Aquarium case (M83F10-M84F2)
is Eps 772-773 (March 21 and 28, 2015) so why do it again? Anime has done this a few times (re-do and add bits) already. . .
This time, some of the
added bits will come from File 0, a 4-page crossover chapter with Shinichi seeing Kaito and Aoko's date
in Magic Kaito Ep4 (or Ep7 in Magic Kaito 1412). Key visual in
URL, reflection of Shinichi and Ran at the bottom is of
Kaito and Aoko.
OP1 and ED1 are used with new anime sequences (update of originals but also some different imagery too). Sugoi!
Jan 3, 2026: DCN JP X account
post (also has the "mirror" image of Kaito and Aoko to the Shinichi and Ran one used as key visual
for Episode ZERO) says Kid vs Hakuba: The Azure Throne (M105F6-9) is "coming soon !!" (= March 14-21 oO). Ishida Akira is back voicing Hakuba!!
Jan 8, 2026 = 30th Anniversary for the anime: On this day in 1996 Ep1 aired
Jan 10, 2026: Ep1188:
NOTE: If didn't order the 12 page 2026 calendar, will see (all year, changes each month) the artwork used from each month (page):
artwork seen at VERY end of each episode (where show/say don't miss the next episode plus short dialogue bit) (been Tanteidan image
for long time (and was Kaito and Aoko image in Ep1187)). Also after title of next ep seen, new group shot image (rather than solo Conan
(was a different Conan shot in Ep1187)) have now. And instead of Conan and Ran image with Next Conan's hint, have Tanteidan (from behind)
looking at a big picture frame (started with Ep1187).
Jan 10, 2026: New ED starts by Kuraki Mai: TOWA: Eikyuu (OR Towa) ni Kaze ni Noru = TOWA: Riding on the Winds of Eternity
ED: is a slow, sad song: Ran (from imagery used) missing/longing for Shinichi.
New OP and ED are nice songs, and sequences to go with them are great: definitely conveying 30th anniversary vibes.
