Gosho Aoyama - Community Interview

[RealityReloaded]

Since there seems to be some widespread interest in this across communities, I figured I'd post this here as well:

Hello and long time since I wrote here.

I just want to notify you, that the newest Conan subreddit has made contact to Gosho Aoyama and have made plans for an AMA (Ask me Anything)
The plan is that subscribed reddit users can ask questions, and these questions will be mailed to Gosho, so he can answer them.

More information here: http://www.reddit.com/r/OneTruthPrevail ... oyama_ama/

Original Thread.

Kor is psychic.

Remember to subscribe to the subreddit (subscribe button is on the right) if you want to post your own question. Click the up arrow to support questions you want to see answered. To erase a vote, click the arrow again. Voting runs until the 13th, but if you want to get a lot of votes, post early. If you see a question that has been asked before, it is helpful to reply and point out that it has been asked before. Links to past interviews can be found on this site in the SDB+ topics and at DCW here: http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/foru ... nterviews/

Also the mods can see the upvote and downvote counts separately so tactically downvoting everyone else will not work.

I'm pretty sure I know EXACTLY what I want to ask but I have several concerns about asking it.

haa! amazing!

I thought Gosho was locked in Chekhov's basement?

My theory is that he escaped in the middle of the Bourbon arc (probably before Sera was introduced). That's the only way to explain how he got away with doing the horrible Mystery Train, and all the other subsequent horrible ideas he came up with.

I have been absent from the forums because I was working on recapture plans. I didn't suspect he was secretly starving himself until he could become skinny enough to fit through the air vents. Soon I'll apprehend him and a boss arc will commence!

If you need help to capture Gosho again I'm right here^^

So I just posted my question.

It is actually pretty important to me that this gets read, so if any of you could upvote, that would be highly appreciated.

Slider, when you get here, you are wanted in this thread before Sep 15 EST. Thanks: http://www.reddit.com/r/OneTruthPrevail ... questions/

Here are the 10 questions that were chosen. The questions that contain manga spoilers are inside the spoiler tags, so don't open them if you don't want to get spoiled.


1: Chekhov_MacGuffin asked:
The name Ooguro/Daikoku Rentarou (大黒 連太郎) appeared in same set of guestbooks that Shiho Miyano, Vodka, and Gin also signed in the Mermaid immortality arrow case. That same name was also used for a building that had a Black Organization meeting place which was blown up in Tequila's case. Can you explain the significance of this name?

2: Chekhov_MacGuffin asked:
Why did a delinquent-type like Kogoro join the police force? Where is the rest of Kogoro's family and why do they never visit or get talked about?

3: Chekhov_MacGuffin asked:
What are the name inspirations for the five names "Miyano", "Shiho", "Akemi", "Elena", and "Atsushi"?

4: kentaru asked:
Did Shiho's parents base their research on Vermouth's body? Vermouth seems to have stopped aging before Sherry's breakthrough with the drug.

5: _Kor_ asked:

Spoiler:

When Haibara talks about the No. 2 of the Organization in file 906, RUM is written in capital English letters. Is there a reason why Rum is written like that?

6: Ran-dezvous asked:
Does Shinichi condone or condemn the death penalty? What will his reaction be if he learns that a culprit he helped arrested is (or had been) sentenced to death? And, are Shinichi's beliefs a reflection of yours as well?

7: _TBD_ asked:
Can you tell us more about the cat that Itakura heard in his phone call with Vermouth? We haven't seen her with a cat yet.

8: RanMouriIta asked:
You wondefully depicted the circumstances and reasons behind Ran's feelings for Shinichi in the New York case. Will you, similarly, show when and why Shinichi's love for Ran originated?

9: Shadow-sama asked:
Since Gin has heard Shiho breathing in the chimney before, did he also notice a child breathing in the last locker in the Dark-Footprint storyline? Vodka did mention a kid afterall...

10: Slider555 asked:
How can Shinichi and Ran have a healthy relationship if Shinichi doesn't think she is trustworthy enough to keep his secrets? Does Shinichi really respect Ran, even though he loves her?

-----------------

I'd like to thank RSP for setting this all up, and hope everything goes well in sending this to Gosho. This certainly gave us some interesting questions to talk about and was a fun topic to discuss in the Spoiler cbox. Please let us know when Gosho answers these questions.

We started discussing over it in the cbox, so it's still in the early idea stage, but a bunch of people are interested in trying to get another interview with Gosho eventually. Some ideas were thrown around already, but we need to gather some more info and details first.

-----------------

I'm somewhat curious who in this forum also submitted a question and/or voted for questions, and if you did, let us know what you asked or voted for (you don't have to list everything. Just a few examples maybe).

[kkslider5552000]

I'm still a bit shocked this is happening tbh.

[MoonRaven]

I tried to get a quesiton in but I couldn't figure out the website. But in the other hand the question I saw there in the early stage all seemed good to me so I decided to let others to toss their coins and hope the best. All questions seem great. I can't wait to hear the answers.
