Kaitou Kid in DC: Chapters 544 & 545

[ickaimp]

Yakuza has the first two of four chapters translated for Kid's latest appearance in Meitantei Conan. Many thanks!!!

Interesting things to note:
Mouri is called because Conan travels with him and Conan has faced down the Kid to a draw on previous occasions, so they're hoping he'll do it for a Third Time.
Count that.
Third.
(This makes six in the manga. volumes 16, 20, 30, 44, 46 and now 53. Two of which were unoffical, Conan stumbling upon Kid -- Magic Lovers-v.20 and Eccentric Mansion-v.46. Obviously they're not counting Movies or OVAs either.)

Once it is established that this is a Murder, Nakamori-keibu isn't interested in it at all, he leaves it to Megure, Takagi, Chiba and Sato. Because who ever did this isn't Kid. "The only thing he would never steal is a life."

Apparently, Sato is a bit of a Kid fan. #^^# Takagi isn't.

Kid re-draws the little cartoon of himself every time he sends out a heist notice. So if the police get a letter with an identical face to a previous note, they treat it as a copy-cat.
-so I guess the rubber stamp idea is right out.

*sigh* We need to update the Kid Ref Page... have new art drawn for it, just cant' seem to colour it. >_< geh.

On the other hand, have discovered that when reading yaoi or manga, we -will- sit there and cackle 'fu fu fu fu'.
-we're turning into an anime villian. @_@;;

Haha. I find Satou being a Kid fan amusing. I wanna read 53!! XD!!

Oh noes, Satou is a Kid fan? Now Takagi has ANOTHER guy to compete with... xD

[fusakugyoku.livejournal.com]

So movies and OAVs are officially non-canon.

Great ><.

Yay for more kid~

Yay for Kid! Yet another reason I'm eagerly awaiting movie 10

Don't worry too much about the "anime villain" thing. I know of someone--ya know, a friend of a friend--who dreams in anime...*coughs and looks innocent*

[magicbulletgirl.livejournal.com]

The reason Takagi isn't a Kid fan is because Kid has the charisma that takagi lacks - good thing Takagi makes up for it with boyish-charm!!! ^^

So Sato's a Kid fan, huh? Imagine that..... **chortles** You know, it's a good thing that KK doesn't have a rubber-stamp with his signature-caricature on it-- if it were me personally, I would find it a MORAL IMPERATIVE to knock Nakamori out and stamp the beejeezuz out of the man. Everywhere. Yep, everywhere. With the strongest ink possible. He'd be finding them for MONTHS.

But then, maybe that's just me..... **puts on Innocent!Ysabet face**

Hot damn, he's finally dealing more with Kid imposters! It means I may have to edit Communications for this later, but still!

You need to save everyone in an individual files and then make sure that there are no space between the codes to line up the ppl

Um... less so than you might think... *clamps hand over mouth to prevent spoilers*

[ickaimp.livejournal.com]

Well... for the manga, it's non-canon anyway. I guess. @_@;;

Yay Kid! XD XD XD

Actually, Nakamori's statement ("The only thing he would never steal is a life.") reminds me why sometimes we just love the guy. Like him insisting that it's the 'Kaitou Kid', NOT '1412'.

... also makes me kinda wonder just exactly how much he -knows-.

[ickaimp.livejournal.com]

Will prolly keep updates on here as the latest translations come out for the chapter. ^^;;

Yeah, kinda wondering just how much editing we're gonna hafta do when the Movie comes out, haven't had any new Hakuba appearances in a couple of years.

*sighs* We're such a Kid Otaku... #>_<#

This rule would have serious implications on some Conan material, like:

• Are the Shiratoris in Movies 1 and 2 the same Shiratori who's currently messing up with Takagi?


• Why did Eri left Kogoro?


• Also, Ran's recall of Shinichi's youth in Movie 9.

Yay for Nakamori, because sometimes he seems to be only thinkinh that Kid-sama is a human too, not just a criminal.

And I wonder that in Magic Kaitou, he doesn't seem to be very clvere, but in Conan vol 16 (finnish edition, don't know about others) he says something like "You knew that I'd solve your riddle". He becomes cleverer, hooray.

I don't think he's really suspecting about Kaito=Kid, since he's been proven that Kaito isn't Kid (MK vol 3 file 4). He doesn't seem to be as doubtful as Hakuba.

[knightusmaximus.livejournal.com]

Nice lj o-O! I think the news reporter says this (the new case) will be the 3rd confrontation with Kid. Just means that they only know about the V16 and V44 cases, because those are the only two Conan made the papers in. ^^

[ickaimp.livejournal.com]

So once again we're dealing with two sets of canon, Manga-verse and Anime-verse.

-I'm still gonna draw from both sides, but the manga has presidence.

[ickaimp.livejournal.com]

*chuckles* I rarely dream in anime (although I often think in anime).

Yeah, I'm wondering what surprises Movie 10 will have for us, if there'll be any more info given on Kid, Hakuba or Heiji.

[ickaimp.livejournal.com]

#^^# Thanks. I'm not so good on the whole translation side of things, but kinda active on the fan fic/art side of things.

Coolness, thanks for pointing that out. Will fix. Was just kinda posting stuff as we went through. ^^;;

[ickaimp.livejournal.com]

*squees over Takagi* He's such a sweetheart, just wanna cuddle him. #^__^#

-Except that Sato would kill anyone who tried anything. ^___________^

[ickaimp.livejournal.com]

Eh, they're non-canon to the manga, but not to the other movies or OAVs.
*shrugs* Just pick and choose what you wanna use. ^_____^

Yay Kid! XD

[ickaimp.livejournal.com]

*points up* Click on 'Yakuza', there's links to the chapters on their site. ^__^

Go Sato! XD

[ickaimp.livejournal.com]

Yeah... all the characters seem to be less clever in MK as opposed to DC. But things are also more logical in DC as opposed to MK. We don't have talking robots in DC. *laughs*

I'm not sure if he knows or not, but he did seem depressed when the theory that Kaito could be the Kid came up. Kaito grew up with Aoko, so he could also feel obligated not to chase Kaito for that reason. ^^;;

Thanks!
