Review:
The beginning of this volume really makes me wish that I had read the
previous one. Because Conan is actually Jimmy, for a very short time.
Ugh, I seriously love him and Rachel, and it depresses me how short
their time together is.
The brief moment we had here, though, was very teasingly sweet.
After that, we go back to normal Conan detective-ing. We get a sushi shop
murder, and then car racing hijinx that have resulted in some
accident. The last one ended up being a misguided attempt at teaching
people a lesson. There's also a tv competition that ends in a
surprising murder, with a tricky clue for Conan to decode. Only, one of
Conan's friends' father is in the competition.
These mysteries are always fun, but they do get a bit boring after a
while. Even saying that, I enjoy following Conan, and I want more of
the character relationships.
