Hier haben wir den Fall im Gästehaus von Sonoko, die jetzt das erste mal als Rans Freundin auftritt. Und dann kommen wieder die Männer in Schwarz! Erstaunlich wie viel am Anfang die noch hinter Conan her waren, zudem endet der Band mit einem Cliffhanger.

Nicht der beste Band. Die Story mit Tatsuya war ziemlich vorhersehbar und klischeehaft. Aber ‚Der Mann mit den Verbänden‘ und der Cliffhanger machen es wieder gut^^

After what I felt what a repetitive volume previously, Volume 5 brings Conan back on track! There are two cases: one about a murder at a retreat for film club friends, and one about a murder at a karaoke bar. The first volume was very convoluted and the tricks hung on to a shoestring. The second was pretty good.

The real appeal of this volume is the 'third mystery' at the end that involves the Syndicate! After all the work Conan/Jimmy has done to protect his identity from Rachel, he is found out by someone else. This is the most suspenseful ending yet, and I am looking forward to seeing what's on the other side of this cliffhanger!

Review:
I love these! They're so fun (which is a fucked up thing to say after those content warnings, I am aware). And WHAT A CLIFFHANGER HUH. These just will never get old to me.

Gosho Aoyama, Case Closed, vol. 5 (ViZ, 1994)

Two more stories here, plus a quick third piece that relates to the greater story arc. The first has Conan and Rachel at the house of one of Rachel's friends, where a number of old school chums are gathering; it's cut off from the rest of the world, of course, and people start getting bumped off. The second involves a band whose singer Rachel and one of her pals are mad for, who dies mysteriously at a karaoke bar. Standard stuff. The bonus story is what makes the volume-- a woman shows up claiming to be Conan's mother and whisks him off. Who is she, and what does she have to do with the syndicate that poisoned Jimmy Kuda? More great stuff from Aoyama. ****
