Err, hi! I've been lurking for quite some time. I felt bored on the other manga site I was active in so, I decided to formally join dctp forums. (Detective Conan wasn't really discussed there as much as you do here.) Nice to meet you all! Hope we get along.  ;D ;D

Name: A-sheen
Age: 16
Birthday: 14/12  ;)
Location: Philippines
Future Career: Hopefully as a Doctor.  ::)
Conan Fan Since: Hmm. 2003, I think?

Favorite Conan Movie: 5th and 10th Movie.
Favorite Conan Case: That case on Kid's Teleportation Magic and this case where Hakuba appeared together with lots of other detectives - when Kid disguised himself as Kogoro.
Favorite Conan Opening/Ending Theme: Not familiar. I rarely watch anime, the opening and ending songs even. >_>
Favorite Conan Movie Theme: Same goes for this.

Other Favorite Anime/Manga: Maid-sama, Death Note, Major, Prince of Tennis.

Favorite Movies: Not really into such. I guess DC movies count?

Favorite Songs: I have lots. Mostly sung by Paramore and Demi Lovato.

Favorite TV Series: I don't really watch TV much. Just started watching House though. Oh yeah, Mythbusters.

Favorite Books: Sherlock Holmes (Just started reading this April), Dan Brown books, some by Nicholas Sparks, Anne Rice and Paulo Coelho.

Favorite DC Couple: HeijixKazuha  :P

Salutations, everyone!

While I am new to DCTP, I am very familiar with forums. I created one of the most popular Yu-Gi-Oh! forums of all-time (which did, sadly, eventually, die after a foolish Admin's decision). I have been admin on countless additional sites and Global Mod on various others.

My Detective Conan story is rather interesting. But seeing as probably four people tops will even read this, I'll keep it short. I woke up one morning (six-seven years ago) and watched Case Closed (yes...) and could see it was an incredible series! Two weeks later, adult swim quit airing it. This, as you can imagine, made me quite disappointed. I began searching online for a cure. I stumbled upon torrents (which at the time were foreign to me) and after a lot of research finally obtained a decent understanding of them. I downloaded a torrent from Anime-Conan (ahhh, good times) of the first ten episodes. After getting all the episodes on my computer, I was unable to play them. Turns out Real Player fails pretty hard as well as Windows Media Player (at least they did back then). Since this entire thing was completely new to me, I spent quite awhile looking into a solution (I thought the episodes were bad, or I had improperly performed the download). I got VLC and boom, MAGIC! (although now, VLC is crap for me, always lagging, I suggest Media Player Classic- never had a single issue). So yeah, I watched the first 200 or so that were subbed, then couldn't find anymore. Anime-Conan died after Kudo-Kun (Admin) decided to quit fansubbing. I looked for Conan episodes elsewhere which was immensely difficult, mind you. I finally found a website with links to download episodes on, and there were skipped episodes EVERYWHERE. Huge gaps that bothered me so much that I decided to wait till they were filled. A year or two later I had long lost the link but found another, with little improvement. I had the interesting idea of starting up a one-man fansubbing group and filling in those gaps myself. Let's just say I got pretty lazy in learning Japanese, haha. A year later I got around again and just decided to watch the episodes despite the gaps. Detective Conan has risen to my favorite show of all-time.

So I offer my thanks to DCTP! I joined out of appreciation of all the work that you do (I'll probably donate in the future as well). You have been able to do only what I dreamed of in the past. Who knows, maybe I'll still attempt the one-man fansubbing process in the future. ;)

So anyways, here is my info:

Name: Golbez (my other name is an enigma)
Age: 19
Location: California
Current Career: Movie Theatre worker
Future Career: Private Detective, Federal Agent
ConanFan Since: 2003-2004

Favorite Conan Movie: Phantom on Baker Street
Favorite Conan Case: Episode 345
Favorite Conan OVA: #4
Favorite Conan Opening Theme: The first one (I don't know the name)
Favorite Conan Ending Theme: N/A
Favorite Conan Movie Theme: N/A

Other Favorite Anime/Manga: Yu Yu Hakusho, Full Metal Alchemst, Blood+, One Piece, Naruto, Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokemon, Rurouni Kenshin

Favorite Movies: Titanic, National Treasure, The Da Vinci Code, Angels and Demons

Favorite Songs: Anything composed by Harry Gregson-Williams or Hans Zimmer

Favorite TV Series: Law and Order, Monk, White Collar

Favorite Books/Stories: Sherlock Holmes, Harry Potter

I'm sure I left details out here and there. I'm sure that as my time on this forum continues, more will be discerned. And yes, Detective Conan has inspired me to hope to have a future as a Detective. I also started reading Sherlock Holmes thanks to Detective Conan. If you haven't read any Holmes yet, then go to Amazon and pick up some stories! I think I got all of mine for under $20!

Yeah, I bought  an external hard drive primarily for Conan. I have like 120GB of it haha. Not that I'm complaining.

Conan x Haibara or Shinichi x Ran? I'm more of a Conan x Ayumi person myself.





Nah, I'm a Shinichi x Ran person, sorry. Little kid love just doesn't turn me on that much. xD
