Top Ten Types of Detective Conan Cases

In these cases, either the most likely person to have committed the crime is already dead or the murder is done in such circumstances that it seems to defy logic. Example is the episode "Shinichi Kudou is the murderer and Ran's tears."

I really love it when Conan solves some really intriguing cases with the Detective Boys as his companions. The humor in those episodes is really great, especially one centering on Haibara.

Like, like like! When Black organization appear, the atmosphere was so tense! Actually, I don't really like them because they're mean and antagonist, but at least I like bourbon and vermouth (and rye)

Every time I see one of these, I know something is about to happen! Whether it be Kudou Shinichi's reappearances or a genuine reminder that this actually does have plot, I love them.

It's very rare and the major plot driver of the series. These high profile cases involve the black organization (and sometimes along with the FBI).

In these cases, Conan has to just find about when, where and how was the deadly poison applied to the victim.

The prime example of this is the "Moonlight Sonata Case". People die one after are another and there seems to be a sort of connection between these killings.

These are large scale cases, where the stakes are very high. Like a bombing warning of a skyscraper or others where the whole police team is used. These are what we call the "high profile cases".

Great character interaction!

In these, complicated traps and tools are put up by the killer to kill the victim in such a way that he can somehow present an alibi for himself. Most of the cases belong to this category.

Though this type of cases are rare in this series, it sure is very entertaining.

Who doesn't love these cases? The creativity, the suspense, the bit of levity from the more dramatic cases of the show? Not to mention the excitement from having Shinichi go up against someone on his own level. And of course the mystery.

The reason Magic Kaito didn't take off as well might have been that lack of mystery. We go to see how he made the trick first, so we were just waiting for everyone else to. It's much more fun not to know and figure out on the way.

Now how did I forget this! Thank you so much, whoever added this here. This list would be incomplete without it. Thanks again. And in my opinion it should be ranked at second.

Really the best type, especially the flashback ones. The most two cases I love are "Memories from Sakura Class" and "Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope".

I like every case there is in the series, but I especially love it when he turns back to Shinichi!

I love Shinichi cases. There should be more of him facing Kaitou Kid

Or any episodes that have Conan (Shin'ichi) on the case with someone else also working to solve it.

My least favorite of all. It has become so repetitive, that it has now become a worthless and time wasting cliche of the series. Here the victim somehow manages to write a dying message at the time, when he's dying due to the injury he suffers from the killer. He writes the message in a puzzle sort of a way so that the killer doesn't recognise that it's actually a dying message! (and thus doesn't destroy it). The thing is, how can a person think so much and make a well made puzzle in the last few seconds of his life?

Here Detective Conan (mostly along with the Detective Boys), finds some sort of scrap paper with jumbled letters all around. He has to solve the puzzle that firstly might lead to a case and then the culprit.

Majority of the cases belong to this category.

Cases where we usually suspected Jodie as Chris Vineyard (Vermouth)

How we love if they would end up together again, but of course we also love how they solve cases together. (Murderer Kogoro Mouri Case)
