I've been seeing a lot of tags on twitter after the whole cousins reveal spoilers such as 'KaiShin Funeral' or KaiShin is Over' and a lot of condolences (and even those who offered different BL ships for Kaito or Shinichi 😅)
Now while the condolences are appreciated, personally, I won't be needing it. Because I knew KaiShin was never gonna happen for 20 years now and if I didn't want to ship them, I would've stopped back in 2004
To those who wish to stop shipping KaiShin, then that's okay. It's your right and no one should make you feel guilty for that. Its the same for those who DO still wanna ship KaiShin (whether as cousins or otherwise is entirely up to you), don't feel guilty for enjoying what you love. Ship KaiShin for as long as you want. Enjoy whatever you can for this fictional media
I can't personally speak for the KaiShin community but for me, let me make this clear:
NO FUNERAL!
LONG LIVE KAISHIN!

As always, thank you so much for your time and for reading this far. If you’d like to specifically see more KaiShin or DCMK, you can find me on my this side account here on Twitter @ moonlit_death
Honestly if the spoilers are true it'd not be affecting much to the Asian side of the fandom. This is not the most cursed ship I've seen and even the holy spirits can't stop the shipping.
So I may or may not have started watching another silly little show from the 90s. It kinda hit the sweet spot for me, with it having a fun gimmick while also being a detective show with compelling characters. I also feel like that clown meme looking at the mountain of episodes I still have to get through.
Also I'm going into this show completely blind so please keep spoilers out of this post; as of posting this, I have just finished ep 193! :)
Wow what an update! This took a while because uh she does not rewear her outfits very often in this segment of the show, still it was fascinating to see how the style of clothes changes over this time period. Also new to this update I went through and added the smol Ran's that have appeared that I skipped over before :)
This project has been a lot of fun and I intend to continue so they'll be more to come in the future too. In the meantime I want to know people's favourites! (Or least favourites are fun too) let me know in the comments/tags!
As a final P.S I've learnt that some of her merch/promo looks are unique and I was wondering if anyone knows if there's any archive or something of references of those cause some of those are really cute and I'd like to include them.
Sorry, but this was Shinichi's biggest act of stupidity....
He knows that Hakuba is there and yet he doesn't take any kind of care when wearing the tie and helping KID, it's so ridiculous that it's funny, but at the same time it's just depressing.
I hate how from the beginning of the story Shinichi doesn't take real care to hide his identity, I will always defend the thesis that it would be much better if he had actually faked his own death to everyone and lived like Conan without having to use a drug, which in addition to putting his life even more at risk because of the pain, he never uses it in really necessary cases but rather to see Ran.
It's ridiculous, Shinichi says that if anyone from the BO finds out that he's still alive, they can go after the people he loves BUT AT THE SAME TIME HE TAKES A DRUG PILL AND GOES AROUND SHOWING HIS FACE TO EVERYONE JUST TO BE WITH RAN AND ABANDON HER 10 MINUTES LATER. If only they had good development but NOT THAT! IT'S THE SAME THING FROM THE BEGINNING!! THIS ROMANCE DOESN'T EVOLVE, IT'S ALWAYS THE SAME THING. They can't even kiss... I just can't stand Shinichi's stupidity at random moments in the plot.
Asked me if Gosto really likes this couple or just continues because of the toxic fandom....
I feel like this undermines Heizuha's credibility. I understand that Gosho wants to drag out the romantic comedy between them (probably because he doesn't want them to advance further than the main couple) but the reason for not confessing is stupid, and it makes me not take Heizuha seriously, sorry.
I don't know what is it with people and Kaitou KID, but personally, I think he's just a showoff. Sure, his magic tricks are fun to figure out for me, but all he does is steal a gem and then return it.
Plus, the fact that he keeps being shipped online with Shinichi Kudo (Who is MY COUSIN and not related to me otherwise) is just gross. Shinichi does not need some cherry white, overcompensating-for-his-daddy-issues, stress inducing con-man in his life.
Oh, and KID, if you are reading this, you still owe me for you know what!
the problem is I’m such a staunch believer in the slow buildup, the earnest enjoyment of meandering through terrible story decisions and weird nothing subplots to build up into a conclusion that explodes out from all that as fantastic storytelling and intrigue based on all that buildup, such that it makes it necessary to get through all that or you’re missing something essential, that I’m also a terrible person to talk to about what makes a story good. I can tell you plenty of what actually makes something tight and well-written and all that technical speak but how could anyone take my advice when I so so so love excruciatingly long unnecessarily complex fumbling and weird nonsense that spirals into, inexplicably, weird nonsense that makes you cry your lungs sore
9. The character I'd most enjoy feeding to a pride of ravenous lions
my two-decade long relationship with this series means that i'm too attached to all the characters for me to really hate any of them 😂 but if we go by character i really don't give much of a fuck about, and i probably would enjoy saving them from a pride of ravenous lions the least, it's probably Amuro/Furuya/Bourbon/whatever 😌
3. A character I want to carry around in a little jar and study like a bug
man there are so many good candidates for this bc so many characters in this series look normal but are actually fucking weird. any of the Black Org for example. Yuusaku bc what the fuck how does that man even make the decisions that he does. any of the police characters???? can i have a jar of each character that i switch out every week or so
5. The character who gives me the greatest gender envy
Sera...tho i'm tranmasc and i more see her as transfem. but goddamn if her current design isn't something i wish i could pull off 😂
13. The non-canon pairing I find the most intriguing
having started this series as a kid, i'm very attached to all the canon couples. that being said i'm extremely fond of heishin and i think the greater teen detectives + friends polycule is a fantastic concept and they would all be down for it. and also i hate to admit it but there's something about furukaza. i really only find myself caring about Furuya when he's with Kazami 😂
