Case Closed: The Crimson Love Letter

Case Closed: The Crimson Love Letter

Handlung

The streets of Tokyo were abuzz with excitement as the crew of Nichiuri TV prepared for the filming of the prestigious Satsuki Cup, a national championship based on the classic game of Hyakunin Isshu, a card game that involves memorizing the names of one hundred famous poets. The competition was a long-standing tradition in Japan, and the stakes were high. On this particular autumn evening, the tension in the air was palpable as the live broadcast was underway, with the cameras capturing every moment of the thrilling match. However, the event took a deadly turn when, without warning, a bomb exploded, sending shockwaves throughout the facility. Panic erupted as chaos erupted, and flames spread rapidly through the building. Amidst the pandemonium, two people managed to escape the inferno, albeit barely. Hattori Heiji, a detective from Osaka, and Kazuha Toyama, a young woman from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, were caught in the midst of the disaster. They were trapped, with no clear escape route. Just as all hope seemed lost, a figure in a black jacket appeared on the scene, racing towards the burning building with an air of calm determination. Conan Edogawa, the enigmatic detective with an uncanny ability to unravel the most complex of mysteries, dashed into the inferno, ignoring the raging flames and danger to his own safety. With lightning-fast reflexes, he managed to reach Hattori and Kazuha just in time, escorting them to safety amidst the mayhem. As the scene unfolded, it became clear that both the identity and the motive behind the bomber were still shrouded in mystery. The authorities were left scrambling to investigate the incident, with the police scrambling to piece together the fragmented clues. As the investigation got underway, it was clear that Conan would be at the forefront, using his remarkable skills to unravel the tangled threads of the bombing case. The Nichiuri TV bombing served as a catalyst for the intricate web of events that unfolded. As Conan delved deeper into the mystery, he found himself entangled in a world of secrets, lies, and deception. Unbeknownst to the general public, the bombing was merely the tip of the iceberg, and Conan's extraordinary abilities would be put to the ultimate test to unravel the intricate plot that had unfolded. Throughout the investigation, Conan employed his trademark detective skills, combining observation, deduction, and an uncanny knack for piecing together seemingly unrelated details. The stakes were high, with lives hanging in the balance. As the investigation progressed, Conan and his allies, including Ran Mouri, a spirited and beautiful young woman who harbored feelings for Conan, but kept those feelings hidden, and Kogoro Mouri, Ran's father and a bumbling detective, were caught in the midst of the complex game of cat-and-mouse. As the story progressed, the focus shifted towards a complex set of alliances and rivalries between various forces, including the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, Nichiuri TV, and the enigmatic figures lurking in the shadows. Conan, with his extraordinary intellect and determination, was the only one capable of unravelling the tangled web of connections that bound the suspects together. Throughout the ordeal, Conan's relationship with Ran and Kogoro grew more complex, with their dynamics adding an extra layer of tension to the investigation. Meanwhile, the enigmatic Shinichi Kudo, the alter ego of Conan's true identity, began to resurface in the narrative. As the story progressed, it became clear that Shinichi's presence was crucial to the unraveling of the mystery. The identity of the bomber was not just a trivial detail; it held the key to the entire conspiracy. The investigation reached its boiling point as alliances were broken, secrets were revealed, and lives were put in danger. In the end, it came down to Conan's remarkable skills, coupled with his unique understanding of human nature, to unravel the mysteries surrounding the bombing. Would he be able to unmask the mastermind behind the bombing, or would the complexity of the case prove too great for him to overcome? The Case Closed: The Crimson Love Letter was an enthralling tale of mystery and intrigue, filled with clever twists and turns. As the narrative concluded, it became clear that, despite the intricate web of deception and lies, Conan's extraordinary intellect and unwavering dedication to uncovering the truth had unraveled the tangled threads of the case, bringing the perpetrators to justice.

Heizu Hattori and Kazuha Toyama are in the spotlight in this episode. The romance and competitive karuta elements are decent, but the mystery aspect is incredibly dull. While Taka Hiro Ohkura's accomplishments in the mystery novel genre are undeniable, it's clear he's an amateur when it comes to screenwriting. The script relies heavily on dialogue to analyze the case (and more often than not, it's not even accompanied by visuals or narration, just pure banter, and in Kansai dialect no less!). This might be acceptable in a TV series, but it's unforgivable in a movie.

Slightly better than the previous one, compensates for the lack of reasoning with romance, and the action scenes are still ridiculously over-the-top. Every time I watch a *Detective Conan* movie, I can't help but sigh at how far this series has gone down the Captain America route. You have your shield, I have my soccer ball, and slicing through a waterfall is no problem. However, the Karuta element is quite good, and Ai's role is so minor that she doesn't even get to finish a sentence.

One of the best Detective Conan movies in the last decade. A long-awaited Heiji and Kazuha centered story, and the production team's second love letter to Kyoto since "Crossroad in the Ancient Capital." The director has redeemed himself, perfectly blending various elements together: spectacular scenes, action sequences, mystery, culprits, cultural undertones, and of course, the romance you all love, plus a theme song by Mai Kuraki. This is exactly how a Detective Conan movie should be!

Well, losing a card game shouldn't lead to murder, should it?
