Which one was the worst for you?
Mine would have to be 383, it kind of bored me to death.

I would say 383... but considering I've not been able to get through it without falling asleep yet....

I took me 4 weeks to watch it all. Had to watch it in sections. 4 different parts.

Really~~ 383 wasn't bad.

Those two baseball players were cute XD;; So I didn't mind.
I hate wasting my time watching those D-boys episodes though T_T;;; Unless theres lots of Haibara then its okay.

The actual storyline of 383 was not bad. Problem was they kept on repeating the same pitching sequence over and over. Were those actually unique frames, or did they just copy & paste? Anyway, if you take out the hundred meaningless "strikes", you would have an episode that is more fast-paced and tolerable. Of course, the show would have ended up being a 1-hour special instead.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't even believe you see a "ball"(meaning strikes, balls) thrown. It's all strikes or hits. I think.. I'm not sure.. because I didn't really like it.. so I only watched it once.
P.S. Why isn't this topic "Best 2Hour Special"? (I guess we all know it's 345 right..)

I almost thought it was a ripoff of 130-131 although the guns were changed into bombs and soccer to baseball

Agreed... 383 was kinda boring. I'm not a huge fan of baseball as it is.. and this just worsened my impression...
For a Heiji & Conan episode, I wasn't satisfied. It could've been a little more fast-paced and certainly more interesting.
Yeah I think everyone would agree that 345 was indeed the best 2 hour special.

Thats cause Conan did have big climactic plots like it does these days but i find it a great episode for those older times. Explained alot of stuff that people needed to know.

precisely. I enjoyed 129, actually. The case was good and pretty tough to crack. And it answered a lot of questions swimming in my head (I hadn't read that particular manga yet and I still didn't know about how Haibara was introduced). Though it was quite loaded with information, I suppose.
383 was pretty weak plotted in comparison

Only the codes were worthwhile, in my opinion. It could've at least been a little faster and the baseball match certainly could've been more exciting.

yeah, I'm a huge baseball fan (go Cubs!) and this episode killed me. It felt really drawn out. It probably could've been done in 24 minutes if there weren't so many pitches.

Of all the conan specials 383 is the only one I have watched once. Not a big baseball fan.

Episode 500 should've been a 2 hour special, I mean it's the 500th episode and all.
