Not Just Conan: Haibara and Kogoro Made the Cut
One line does a lot of the work in Detective Conan. Every time Edogawa Conan spots the detail that cracks a case, he lets out "arere?", a puzzled little noise that tells the audience this is the part that matters. Netflix Japan's official X account stacked 30 years of them back to back and captioned the post, roughly, "we collected 30 years of arere?"
What pushed it past the usual anniversary clip is the supporting cast. According to Japanese entertainment news site Anime Anime, the compilation also works in Ai Haibara and Kogoro Mouri saying the line, plus a Shinichi Kudo version. Replies on X included "way too concentrated" and "the impact when you line them up is insane," with several fans calling the Haibara and Kogoro cuts the rare ones.
The format isn't new for the account. Netflix Japan's channels have run the same treatment on other Conan running gags, including a compilation of 30 years of the series' odder gadgets.
30 Years, 1,100 Episodes, 108 Volumes
Gosho Aoyama has been serializing the mystery manga Detective Conan in Shogakukan's Weekly Shonen Sunday since 1994. The setup hasn't budged: high school detective Shinichi Kudo is dosed with a poison by a mysterious black-clad organization and wakes up in the body of an elementary schooler. Taking the alias Edogawa Conan, he keeps solving murders while hunting the people who shrank him. Volume 108 hit shelves in April 2026.
The anime started in 1996 and has passed 1,100 broadcast episodes. The films are doing just as well. The 29th movie, Detective Conan: Fallen Angel of the Highway, opened April 10, 2026, and is tracking ahead of the previous entry, Sekigan no Zanzo, at the Japanese box office.
A Two-Hour Special Airs Tonight in Japan
The supercut landed a day ahead of the main event. 30-go Satsujin Jiken airs September 25, 2026, at 9:00 p.m. JST on Kinyo Road Show, NTV's Friday-night movie block. It's the franchise's first new two-hour special in a decade and an original story rather than a manga adaptation. Fumihiro Kamanaka directs from a script by Takeharu Sakurai at TMS Entertainment (Detective Conan, Lupin III), with longtime series composer Katsuo Ono scoring and Mai Kuraki performing the theme song "Hallelujah."
The plot turns on counterfeit banknotes. A fake bill surfaces at a murder scene, the National Police Agency opens an investigation, and the case splits the cast between the National Printing Bureau's Nagano facility and Osaka, where Conan and Heiji Hattori chase the suspected printing operation. Live-action actor Elaiza Ikeda guest stars as a forensic document examiner at the National Research Institute of Police Science.
Looking Ahead
International fans have a partial way in. Netflix and Crunchyroll have been rolling out curated Detective Conan collections outside Japan since July 2025, using the original title instead of Case Closed and a new English dub from Studio Nano. Three sets have arrived so far: Conan vs. The Black Organization, Rivals of the Great Detective, and FBI Intervention, which picked up more episodes on August 1, 2026. That's still a thin slice of the show. Netflix's Japanese service carries more than 900 episodes.
Tonight's special has no announced international release. Neither does Fallen Angel of the Highway.
On the manga side, Viz Media has published the series as Case Closed with localized character names, reaching volume 98 in April 2026. In June 2026 Viz announced a 3-in-1 edition that switches to the Detective Conan title and restores the original Japanese names, part of a slate dated to spring 2027.
