The endless mysteries and clever solutions every Thursday are coming to a sudden halt as the Detective Conan manga is going on an indefinite hiatus starting next week.
While One Piece is known as one of the longest-running manga series, it still trails behind Gosho Aoyama’s Detective Conan. Many fans may recognize the anime adaptation, better known as Case Closed, where we follow the young detective solving various crimes.
After three decades of continuous serialization, the detective manga will take an indefinite break following its appearance in Weekly Shonen Sunday #42. This issue, featuring Detective Conan File 1133, will be released on September 11, 2024.
Titled ‘The Dark Red Last Act’, this chapter signals the start of the manga’s hiatus. Although the return date of Detective Conan remains uncertain, it’s likely that it will eventually come back, as the story is far from finished.
The protagonist Shinichi Kudo in his real form
Understandably, readers are disappointed about the hiatus, but they are supportive, especially considering the lengthy run of the series. One X user commented on the announcement, expressing understanding despite the sadness. Another remarked, “I can wait, especially after the recent chapter that was released.” A third user advised, “Gosho Aoyama, please prioritize your health and complete your series.”
A fourth user added humorously, “And that’s Gosho beginning his year-end vacation.”
The storyline of Detective Conan kicks off with teenage detective Shinichi Kudo and his childhood friend Ran Mouri at an amusement park. While pursuing two criminals from a mysterious organization, Shinichi is given a strange pill that transforms him into a child.
This sets him on a journey as Conan, a young boy attempting to locate those criminals and restore his original body, all while concealing his true identity from Ran and those around them. Throughout his adventure, he tackles numerous mysteries while maintaining his disguise.
