[768-770] Jeet Kune Do: Sera's Identity Speculation Thread

[Akonyl]

him/her knowing conan's name is the most interesting part to me, really. Sure, he could have heard it on the train or somewhere similar, but iirc the whole "name wasn't mentioned around another person" thing's been used for the plot before, so I would think if Gosho wanted him to learn Conan's name on the train his name would have popped up in the manga itself.

sorta curious if they're planning for him to turn out to be one of the other "great detectives" like him/Heiji/whoever's from the North+South. Or maybe, Bourbon's just really good at disguising. :V

@JD i was NOT talking to myself! just because my name is psyko doesn't mean I'm schizo

frankly I don't appreciate being publicly slandered like that. and if you think this is sarcasm you're thinkin' wrong that legitimately was not me

I don´t get it either. Lol. XD

Now i hope that this will become a Love triangle (and later a square with Shiho for Shinichi! ) just to mock/tease all those with Ranichi-love-scences spoiled Ranichi-fans. XDDDDD

If he's a new character and he ends up joining the Shinichi-Heiji-Kaito-Saguru group of AWESOME GENIUSES, I will be happy.

[Dashin]

He's Bourbon, of course.

At profparanoia.... You know I'm pretty sure any agent of the law can learn and practice any martial art they want... If you were a marine and later became a detective, you wouldn't use police take down techniques as your primary mode of subduing someone, you'd use MCMAP. Or it could go the other way... He learned whatever techniques at Quantico and then decided to pick up JKD later. Or he could be a huge Bruce Lee fan and learned it for that reason. There are many possibilities, and as long as it works and is not illegal LEOs can use any style they want.

Yes, but then Esukie would have had to know JKD before, your agrument was that he was taught it when he joined which seems like an odd choice. Plus I don't think he's been in America to learn JKD on his own yet.

No, Gin said that it wasn't tested before and that shinichi will be their guinea pig.
Later when Haibara was introduced, she also had other people having taken the APTX who died. And Shinichi was also on that list of people, which she then also "confirmed" on the list as dead.
So Shinichi was in the first group of test subjects. Meaning there wasn't any test on humans before Shinichi At least none which gave the BO results.

But I think that was discussed before somewhere else

She also stated that they checked his house and then did again a month later but everyone else that was given the drug had been confirmed. So probably people were given the drug before him if Gin called him a guinea pig.

Still, even if he was first, other people were given the drug and died and it was given to Pisco as a failsafe so it was proved as useful at that point. So still, taking just to become younger for a disguise is a bad move.

Lastly, if Gin did give Shinichi the first human test, then he's well... stupid. Don't test it first on a person who will clearly rat you out if it doesn't work.

OOHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
it looks AWESOME!!
it kinda look like kid though
we still don't know whether its a guy or a girl

[Cheesus]

its a guy ._.

[Dus]

The "Shinichi Turns Gay" Chapter

He does blush when the guy thanks him.

Anyway, my money's on Eisuke. It would just be weird for Gosho to introduce another great detective at this point, and thus make the plot more complicated when he hasn't resolved anything for years.
And Eisuke is the only person who springs to mind who
a) knows Conan's name
b) is interested in mysteries
c) has a thing for Ran

Although it is weird for him to know Jeet Kune Do, but it's possible he already knew it before and just didn't show it.  But why didn't anyone recognize him? And why did he return?

Also: Why is there a Union Jack on Conan's trouser pocket? Is the new guy British? (Someone should have mentioned that he looks foreign then though) Or is there a connection with the London case apart from the initial conversation?  The hat might also be of relevance, it does look like Fusae's. What reason would she have to disguise herself as a guy though?

[shihokudo]

the new guy is REALLY HOT!!!

[Soreiyu]

I hope it's really a guy otherwise I will be seriously disappointed. ;_;

[shihokudo]

I KNOW
but in the last box he kinda looks like kid/shinichi

[Officer Kaoko]

Read the file (just now )...

And I think... it was just a suicide .

Spoiler:

I think the culprit is no other than that old baba. It's too obvious... how and when it's done. Plus, she was the only one who's name was introduced and mentioned .
I'm guessing that Gosho wants to finish this case simply and easily with maybe the new character showing off solving the case instead of Conan... and then... focusing the rest of the plot on that kid ?

[kkslider5552000]

Haven't read it so I don't know the age (if the age has been specified in any way) but maybe he's the "ordinary citizen" bomber's lost son that ran away? He would likely pay a great deal of attention to anything involving the people who got his father arrested would do/say.
