ickaimpY'know, for a summary, this ended up being 17k long... and it's only half done. *facefaults* The really exciting parts have yet to happen. ^^;;
Many thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

calger459 also has a movie summary that covers the full movie. ^__^

+++ Magician of the Silver Sky Summary +++
By Icka! M. Chif.
+++
Pitch black.
There's the sound of footsteps running on metal and the harsh sound of someone breathing. Then a door slams open, illuminating the area as Conan runs out, breathing hard as he looks around the metal staircase for someone, a backpack strapped to his back.
Silence, then the sound of someone's foot hitting metal above him. Conan takes off running up the stairs to his left, taking them as fast as he can.
He reaches the top, the streetlights and moonlight illuminating the helicopter landing pad on the top of the skyscraper. A lone man stands in front of him, tall, wearing a guards uniform with his back to the boy as he looks up at the sky, his hands in his pockets. Conan pants for breath for a moment, then straightens up, a confidant look on his face and makes comment about the jig being up. (or to that effect)
The man turns around. Long face, closed eyes, prominent cheekbones, and a friendly smile. He agrees, reaching one arm towards his neck. There's a swish and a flash of cape as Kid the Phantom Thief stands there, smiling at the miniature detective.
A blast of trumpets and enter the theme opening and explanations.
Scene change to Mouri's office. Mouri is sitting on one of the couches, talking to 2 women. Moki Juri is a vibrant lady with shoulder length spiky hair. Next to her is Yaguchi Mosayo, is quieter and pale, with long black straight hair and glasses. They recently recived a Kid note, about a ring, which Juri sets down on the table. It's a large star sapphire ring, surrounded by diamonds, which Ran marvels over, much to Mouri's annoyance.
Kid note:
Juliet
Romeo
Victor
Bravo
26 no moji ga tobikau naka
Unmei no Houseki wo
itadaki ni sanjousuru
*picture of a card, the 2 of spades cut in half*
-Kaitou Kid
*heart* *caricature of the Kid face*
Juri is quickly linked to 'Juliet', 'Julie' (in japanese, pronounced the same as 'Juri') being short for 'Juliet'. She's also playing 'Josephine', in a theatre production about Napoleon. Both Ran and Conan are excited about the show.
Mouri starts attempting to figure it out, linking the 26 to the English alphabet and spinning a whole thread, to which the woman applaud and comment that it's no wonder he's a brilliant detective. Conan makes his 'A-lala' sound as he picks up the Kid note and pours over it, which Mouri sweatdrops at, recognising the sound as Conan about to poke large gaping holes in his wonderful theory.
More banter, the usual routine, as the camera pans back, to a dove sitting on the telephone wire across the street, watching them. ( ^___^ )
Curtain time.
Mouri comes to visit Juli in her dressing room before the show, Ran and Sonoko with him and Agasa, Haibara, Genta, Mitsuhiko, Ayumi and Conan, wearing a backpack, trailing behind them. Juli is in costume, getting her hair and make up done by a girl with her hair up in a ponytail, Sakai Natsuki, makeup artist. There's a open box of chocolates in front of Juli as she turns to warmly greet Mouri. She looks rather miffed about the kids however, who are looking around in awe as the adults talk.
Ayumi spots some foundation on the counter and marvels over them while Haibara looks at them some what wistfully and explains that they're different colours and that you mix them together on a person to make them look right. (Haibara looks rather wistful at all this, IMHO). Ayumi thinks its fascinating as she picks one up and inspects it. The Natsuki walks over and retrieves it from Ayumi, putting all the makeup into a black travel bag (looks like one of those black doctors bags, only bigger) and clicks the bag's fastener's shut, slightly scolding a disappointed looking Ayumi. Haibara looks rather annoyed but the woman makes Ayumi smile.
The rest of the actors file in already in costume, greeting the famous Mouri and making introductions. Narusawa Funjiro: a large friendly muscular man playing Napoleon, Shinjou Isaa: a young handsome man with dark hair, Josephine's other suitor. Pan Tooru: an older gentleman with longer hair, Tajimo Tenko, a blonde woman and I think rival for Napoleon's affections and not in costume, Yaguchi Mosayo, who we met earlier. They all talk for a moment while Mouri laughs, and another person makes an appearance.
Inspector Nakamori, being trailed by his assistant from the Shin'ichi vs the Kid special and a few police officers, enters and greets Mouri. The two shake hands. Nakamori squeezes Mouri's hand, crushing it and causing Mouri to try not to wince. Mouri returns the favour. A clash of manly testosterone takes place as the Shonen Tantei watch and cheer on the two men trying to crush each others hands in a grunting, sweating, dignified manly fashion.
An unofficial draw is finally called, both men leaning back and rubbing sore hands, which have clear imprints showing as they talk. Nakamori announces that for this case he brought in an expert on the Kid, and opens the door.
Sneakers walk into the door way as the camera pans up past the jeans to the smiling face of Kudo Shin'ichi.
Shock.
Shin'ichi walks in, talking to the actors, appearing calm and confidant about the whole thing while off to the side, Agasa and Haibara do wide-eyed double takes and Conan just about has a heart attack. (We're not stealing the line from Calger459's summary, its in my notes and that's what really what it looks like. Neechan also has a note there that Conan is realising that Sex with the Kid would now be Masturbation. -_-) Ran reacts with surprise as well, backing up into Sonoko, who's watching with a slightly puzzled but pleased expression.
"THAT'S NOT SHIN'ICHI-NIICHAN!!" Conan declares (via my instant mental translator) as he steps forward pointing at the impostor and making everyone jump. The adults react with surprise and suspicion, while Shin'ichi sweatdrops and comments. Nakamori decides there's only one way to know for sure. Nakamori reaches up and starts pulling on Shin'ichi's cheeks, stretching his face out, causing his eyes to tear up and many interesting strange strangled sounds to emerge from his throat.
His face doesn't come off.
Nakamori's satisfied, and so is everyone else as Nakamori releases Shin'ichi. Shin'ichi looks a little worse for wear as he rubs his now pink and very sore cheeks.
Conan protests that that CAN'T be Shin'ichi-niichan because he... (ore wa...) His jaw snaps shut, one hand on his chest as he realises what he was about to say. Ran looks on curiously in the back ground as Shin'ichi continues to rub his cheeks, looking the faintest bit interested in the proceeding, but kind of distracted with the pain.
Because he's -what-, Mouri wants to know. Conan shuts up and hides behind Agasa and Haibara. In the mean time, Shin'ichi's drawn everyone's attention away by flirting lightly with Ran, calling her 'cute'. "Cute?!" Ran blushes, getting flustered while Sonoko cheers it on. Conan grumbles about this, and Haibara gets a shot in about how do they know that -he- is who he says he is. Conan's not amused.
The actors file out, it's nearly show time and Shin'ichi invites Ran to go with him as he checks out the perimeter and get ready for the heist. Conan's sulk vanishes like it never existed as he suddenly goes ultra-whiny spoiled bouncy child, grabbing Ran's jacket and demanding that he wants to go with. Ran acquiesces and the Shonen Tantei wonder what the heck got into Conan, he's acting weird.
A hand rattles a doorknob, it refuses to budge. Shin'ichi grins, satisfied that it's locked. He smiles at Ran, who's following along side them they head towards her seat. Conan, looking very much the sulking child, pauses behind them and checks the door as well, rattling it before being satisfied that it really is locked and skulking along behind them.
Genta, Mitsuhiko and Ayumi have their hands pressed up against the glass of a window, expressions of delight on their faces as they marvel over the view of the sunset from where they're standing as Genta does a heartfelt "Sugee!" Mitsuhiko corrects him in a rather mature manner. (instant mental translator: "nobody says 'sugee'." 'Sugee' is a form of 'Sugoi', an exclamation, BTW. Luffy from One Piece says it frequently) Genta looks rather shame faced and confused while Ayumi appears quietly puzzled.
Shin'ichi walks up, pressing his hands up against the glass as well. "Sugee!"
Genta and Ayumi smile shiftily at Mitsuhiko, who laughs nervously and rubs the back of his head.
Shin'ichi offers to tell them a riddle, and they inform him that Agasa gives them weird riddles. Agasa 'humphs' at that, and Shin'ichi tells them the riddle anyway. It involves Napoleon and two houses. (what? I toldja I don't know japanese!!!)
Ran figures it out first, clapping her hands in delight and Shin'ichi shushes her, telling her he wants the kids to figure it out. The Shonen Tantei strain over it, getting part of the riddle. Sonoko gets it next, gushing out the next part of the riddle. Conan walks up to join their circle, finishing and explaining the riddle.
It's just as bad as Agasa's riddles. -_-
Curtain time.
Everyone takes their seats in the upper balcony, over looking the stage. Shin'ichi's not with them, he's down on the first floor leaning on a wall by one of the doors, talking to a police man. Conan's sitting at the end of row, next to Ran, watching him intently. The lights die down and Conan switches his glasses over to night vision mode (5th movie reference) to watch Shin'ichi as the police officer leaves. Shin'ichi watches the stage.
The play begins, there's dancing and singing, Pan Tooru's character introduces Napoleon and Josephine's to each other, they sparkle at each other, Shin'ichi looks bored.
The Star Sapphire ring is introduced, Shinjou Isaa's character gives it to Josephine. Shin'ichi continues to look bored. Napoleon throws a fit about the ring while Shin'ichi yawns, looking extremely bored.
The finale comes, Josephine comes on stage in what appears to be a wedding gown, and multiple female attendants carrying the train. Sonoko and Ran gasp and marvel over the gown, along with the rest of the audience.
Shin'ichi looks directly up at Conan, grins like a Kid in the candy store, and gives him a wave as he turns and walks out the door he's been standing next to.
Conan mutters something to Haibara, who is in front of him (instant mental translation: Cover for me!), Haibara looks rather confused and disgruntled (instant mental translation: Cover for you? -How-?!) as he vaults the arm chair and takes off running down the aisle. He bursts through the doors at the top, runs downstairs, turns the corner and bumps into a rather large belly, knocking him backwards and to the floor, his backpack cushioning the fall.
A rather portly officer looks down at him, apologising and asking if he's okay as Conan gets to his feet and brushes himself off. The officer looks rather concerned and apologetic looking him over. A second officer, taller and thinner with a thin face and closed eyes (think Brock from Pokémon, with a longer face) comes up and asks the Bouya if he's okay. Conan emphatically repeats that he's fine, a 'gotcha' grin spreading across his face before he appears oh-so innocent and points out that isn't there something funny with the second officer? Something different that the first officer doesn't have?
Meanwhile, back at the theatre, Ran and Sonoko have noticed something odd, that makes Ran groan and sweatdrop. On stage in costume next to the throne is Nakamori and Mouri, doing a pissed off 'Hey Abbot' impression.
The officers look down, examining each other's uniforms before the second officer disconnects a nightstick from his belt, smiling politely and trying to explain why he has it and the other officer doesn't. Conan doesn't look convinced and continues to pressure him. The first officer stays silent, just watching them with a perplexed expression. Second officer finally grins and slaps the top of the nightstick, causing a bright flash of light to blind both of them and takes off running.
Conan follows, growling as the Kid grins and darts into an elevator, the doors closing just before Conan hits them. Luckily for him, the elevator next to it dings and opens up. Some people dressed for the theatre walk out talking and he darts in, hitting the buttons and the doors close.
The elevator opens up and Conan runs out, straining to see where the Kid went. It's dark and we're now back to the opening scene. Conan darts to the top of the stairs to where the Kid-Officer is clearly waiting for him, standing in the middle of the helicopter pad.
Small banter as Kid rips off his disguise and Conan reaches down and activates his shoes. Kid shoots at him with his card gun, Conan dodges, activates a inflatable soccer ball from in his belt buckle (yeah, okay, you try to discribe that and not sound perverted) and kicks it at the Kid's head. Kid leans to the side to avoid it and shoots at Conan again. Conan jumps backwards to avoid, then freezes when he hears Ran's voice calling for him. It's a trick, it's the Kid. Conan's not amused, but charge because of the card gun. He jumps again as more cards follow, embedding themselves in the concrete as he narrowly avoiding each time. The Kid grins manically as he fires.
Conan finds himself between a rock and a hard place, almost literally, as he finds his back against one of the metal posts of the fence surrounding the helipad. Kid says something, (Tantei-kun) then fires again. Conan ducks, leaping to the side, the card sticking out of the metal post by one corner right between where Conan's eyes had been.
Conan lands poorly and stumbles, rolling under the fence and off the side of the building with a small yelp.
Kid has a minor 'Oh, Shit' moment as he activates the hang glider and dives after him as fast as he can. He spots Conan in freefall and angles for him, drawing up almost parallel to the falling tantei to grab him when Conan rolls onto his back and shoots a sleeping dart at him. Kid veers to avoid, causing him to soar out of grabbing range.
Conan now has an 'Oh, shit' moment of his own as he rolls back onto his stomach, then pulls on two metal loops of the backpack he's been wearing all night.
~FOOM!!~ A military-green parachute opens up, catching the breeze and slowing his decent.
Understanding and resignation flickers across the Kids face as he smirks. Para-glider against Hang glider, huh? He's fine with that.
Back on stage, the final curtain begins to fall. Napoleon and Josephine clasp hands onstage, lifting them up and taking a bow. Mouri and Nakamori watch intently as the curtain drops down, down, down...
The curtain its the stage. NOW!!! Get him!! Nakamori and Mouri shout, pointing at Narusawa Funjiroo. as the rest of the extras on stage shed their robes, revealing police uniforms. They promptly dogpile on the actor, knocking him to the ground and piling on him until they're chest deep and all you can is a confused Funjiroo who is loudly protesting what the hell are they doing and that he really is himself.
Nakamori grabs his cheeks and attempts to pull his face off. It's really his face as well, much to Mouri and Nakamori's confusion. If the actor is really himself, then where is the Kid?
Kid and Conan race across the breezes, in between buildings, Conan gaining on the more acrobatic and heavier Kid. A train leaves the subway station below them, which Kid notices and dives towards, smirking. Conan realises what he's about to do and resolutely follows.
The Thief gets above the train and releases the belt from around his waist, disconnecting himself and landing in a crouch on a car towards the middle of the train, capeless. He turns, grinning and waves up at Conan as the train starts to speed ahead. "Bai bai!!"
Conan's not about to let him go -that- easily. He disconnects himself from the para-glider as well, dropping down on to the last car and rolling backwards until he gets his balance. There's some banter as he crawls forward until the Kid points up, something glinting from his waist.
There's a wire leading from the Kid to his hang glider, which is following above them.
Conan curses, darting forward until he's on the end of the car the Kid's resting on. Kid makes a parting comment, triggering a winch that pulls him quickly into the air. Hands up, he grabs the handles and flies away, hanging from the glider.
Below him, Conan watches him glide away from the top of the subway roof, going the opposite direction.
-TBC-
Was fortunate enough to find pictures and names of the movie characters in the ¥333 paperback version of Conan vs the Kid.
(-the ¥1600 hardcover includes colour pictures and the Shin'ichi vs the Kid chapter, but not the character info)
Shinjoou Isaa (28): ( A young handsome man with dark hair and pierced ears.
Tajimo Tenko (36): Blond woman, kind of working in Moki Juri's shadow.
Narusawa Funjiroo (34): Large friendly muscular man playing the male lead.
Moki Juri (37): Red head with spiky hair who approaches Mouri with the Kid note. Prima Donna of the Group.
Sakai Natsuki (26): Make up artist, younger than the rest of the group. Wears her hair up in a tall ponytail like Kazuha.
Yaguchi Mosayo (32): Pale quiet woman with long dark hair and glasses.
Pan Tooru (45): Older slightly balding gentleman with his hair in a low ponytail. Wears gold jewlery like he's stuck in the 70s. Hairy chest too. ew.
+++
Personally, I have some major problems with the Kid vs Conan on the rooftop scene. Kid is NOT aiming to miss in the slightest. He's seriously aiming to hit Conan. And I can't figure out why, because the helipad is large enough for him to make a clean getaway without having to drive Conan away. o_O
He's better the second half, but he feels massively OOC right there. >_< Unfortunately, now it's canon. -_- blargh.
The torn 2 of Spades, BTW? Playing cards evolved out of the orginal Tarot, so you can use them as such. ^__^ To my understanding the 2 of Spades means:
Separation, gossip and deceit. Difficult changes.
Hee hee hee

He spots Conan in freefall and angles for him, drawing up almost parallel to the falling tantei to grab him when Conan rolls onto his back and shoots a sleeping dart at him. Kid veers to avoid, causing him to soar out of grabbing range.
Conan now has an 'Oh, shit' moment of his own as he rolls back onto his stomach, then pulls on two metal loops of the backpack he's been wearing all night.
~FOOM!!~ A military-green parachute opens up, catching the breeze and slowing his decent.
Understanding and resignation flickers across the Kids face as he smirks. Para-glider against Hang glider, huh? He's fine with that.
Back on stage, the final curtain begins to fall. Napoleon and Josephine clasp hands onstage, lifting them up and taking a bow. Mouri and Nakamori watch intently as the curtain drops down, down, down...
The curtain its the stage. NOW!!! Get him!! Nakamori and Mouri shout, pointing at Narusawa Funjiroo. as the rest of the extras on stage shed their robes, revealing police uniforms. They promptly dogpile on the actor, knocking him to the ground and piling on him until they're chest deep and all you can is a confused Funjiroo who is loudly protesting what the hell are they doing and that he really is himself.
Nakamori grabs his cheeks and attempts to pull his face off. It's really his face as well, much to Mouri and Nakamori's confusion. If the actor is really himself, then where is the Kid?
Kid and Conan race across the breezes, in between buildings, Conan gaining on the more acrobatic and heavier Kid. A train leaves the subway station below them, which Kid notices and dives towards, smirking. Conan realises what he's about to do and resolutely follows.
The Thief gets above the train and releases the belt from around his waist, disconnecting himself and landing in a crouch on a car towards the middle of the train, capeless. He turns, grinning and waves up at Conan as the train starts to speed ahead. "Bai bai!!"
Conan's not about to let him go -that- easily. He disconnects himself from the para-glider as well, dropping down on to the last car and rolling backwards until he gets his balance. There's some banter as he crawls forward until the Kid points up, something glinting from his waist.
There's a wire leading from the Kid to his hang glider, which is following above them.
Conan curses, darting forward until he's on the end of the car the Kid's resting on. Kid makes a parting comment, triggering a winch that pulls him quickly into the air. Hands up, he grabs the handles and flies away, hanging from the glider.
Below him, Conan watches him glide away from the top of the subway roof, going the opposite direction.
-TBC-
Was fortunate enough to find pictures and names of the movie characters in the ¥333 paperback version of Conan vs the Kid.

Personally, I have some major problems with the Kid vs Conan on the rooftop scene. Kid is NOT aiming to miss in the slightest. He's seriously aiming to hit Conan. And I can't figure out why, because the helipad is large enough for him to make a clean getaway without having to drive Conan away. o_O
He's better the second half, but he feels massively OOC right there. >_< Unfortunately, now it's canon. -_- blargh.
The torn 2 of Spades, BTW? Playing cards evolved out of the orginal Tarot, so you can use them as such. ^__^ To my understanding the 2 of Spades means:
Separation, gossip and deceit. Difficult changes.
Hee hee hee
