Synopsis

Conan Edogawa is quite remarkable for a six-year-old kid. As well as being a super sleuth and magnet for murder, he's also a shrunken version of his 17-year-old alter ego Shinichi Kudo. Conan is the victim of a poison attack that is meant to kill him after he witnesses and solves a local murder. Instead, the drug sends him reeling back to elementary school size but leaves his brain in tact, along with his incredible investigative powers. And so begins the many adventures of Case Closed. The Case Closed Casebook: An Essential Guide, the first-of-its-kind anime and manga factbook, takes the fan on an intriguing tour through the world of Cased Closed, the hit anime and manga series that is wowing audiences the world over. Brimming with character bios, hidden clues, truths and legends, and behind-the-scenes gossip, this illustrated sourcebook is an essential tool for any would-be sleuth and a must-have for all Detective Conan fans. Mysteries and Secrets Revealed! is a popular series of factbooks compiled in Tokyo by long-term fans of Japan's hottest anime.
