So I just rewatched Lupin vs Conan. How does Lupin know Conan is Kudo at the end? I only recall Kudo ever being mentioned when Ran is having wet dreams about him, and Lupin wasn't around for any of those.

Edit: I have another question. Why do the FBI use honorifics amongst themselves?

Edit2: Is Tequila really dead? Both the manga and anime specifically only show his show that had the transmitter on it (but no foot). You can see a person diving in the explosion in the outside frame. In the manga, he also says something before saying that "it won't fit" and "it's already open." He says something like "it's the micro"? Or is that supposed to be something else because Conan is still setting the frequency on his glasses?

Edit3: Why did Gin have so much APTX if the drug's never been tested? It seems out of character for Gin, for the black organization, to take a risk like that where they wouldn't be sure of the outcome. Some people say the shrinking (or eternal youth) may be the ultimate goal for APTX, but both Haibara and Gin say the drug is supposed to be for killing. Gin appears to be the number two in the organization (despite Vermouth being the favorite), so I think it's strange that Gin would be so wrong about what the drug does. However, Pisco seems to remark the shrinking is the intended result. Then how could Haibara not know what the drug she was developing was for? Unless she lied to Conan when she said that she took the drug in order to kill herself.

In which case it would make more sense that Haibara knew it was for shrinking (she have actually said at one point that she thought there was a possibility when she took it), which is the explanation for why Haibara continues to be scared of the black organization--they know to look for a little kid (any rational normal person would not, since APTX is the only magical element in the conanverse, we can assume that rational normal people in their world would behave the same as people in our world). Yet Gin still never suspects the children. Is Gin really so untrusted in the organization that they won't let him in on what must be an astoundingly huge project? Because nobody told him what it actually did, and for some reason gave him a ton of them to just use on random people, there's a huge security risk just walking the streets (ie- Conan). As far as I remember, only Pisco and Vermouth have actually recognized Haibara (but I don't remember if they're the only two to have seen her small).

Spoiler:

What are the titles of the books behind Conan? "Black Towe" seems to stand out because of the word black, but there seem to be several mystery novels called The Black Tower.

Why is "the criminal" silhouette Gin in the company president's daughter kidnapping case? If it's Conan assuming the alleged "man in black" is "that man in black"... I don't recall him making this kind of assumption in any other case.

Is there a list of significant characters that didn't have a name plate? From scanning the first couple cases (and some other random spots), Megure, Conan/Kudo, Agasa, Gin, Vodka, Hattori, Ayumi, Genta, Mitsuhiko, Okino Yoko, and Andre Camel didn't have name plates (I seem to recall that no other black organization member has had a name plate--Mizunashi Rena not being a black organization member) (Mouri has a name plate in the manga, but not in the anime, similarly Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko have name plates in the anime, but not in the manga). The pattern seems to be that characters who are suspects or are not who they appear to be (in Andre's case, this could be another red herring that he's a spy for the black organization, but in the end it actually means he's exactly who he said he was, an FBI agent).

What kind of a Ultimate marathon question is this? :-P

[User 4869]

Why do the FBI use honorifics amongst themselves?

Why not? Its pretty common for Japanese to use honorifics. If you refer to the fact that they are american. Lets face the fact that they talk in Japanese. One example is Jodis call Akai "Shuu" without honorifics, because they are close.

Is Tequila really dead?

Dont remember the detail. But I think his survival serve nothing to the story, and we should get hint if he indeed survive,

Why did Gin have so much APTX if the drug's never been tested?

The drug always kill, from Gin perspective. Haibara notice some shrink but does not report the the rest of BO. I dont remember Haibara think she will survive. She try to commit suicide, which is perfectly fit for Haibara character pre 345.

they know to look for a little kid

Not yet. I think Haibara mention in pisco case that, now that BO know she shrink, even she escape from the hotel. it would take no time for the BO to look for her. Turn out that the fact that she shrink is still kept from the BO after the case, so she go off the hook.

Why is "the criminal" silhouette Gin in the company president's daughter kidnapping case? If it's Conan assuming the alleged "man in black" is "that man in black"... I don't recall him making this kind of assumption in any other case.

In fake banknote case which Haibara appear, Conan wrongly assume the women in black as BO member too.

Mouri has a name plate in the manga

When? I recall he got it in Mystery train case, bot in manga and anime.
Akai Shuichi has nameplate as, Akai shuichi - passenger LoL

Because Lupin and his pals just did a background check on Conan

The name plates don't really mean anything serious...

No DC movie has ever affected the main continuity in the manga. No information from movies is required to understand the manga. Thus the movies are sort of side stories, and they can't be assumed to be as equally "true" as the manga is.

Spoiler: Spoilers for Bourbon and Okiya and such

From the interviews with Gosho and official information, in the movie it sounds like Okiya is going to be revealed to be Shuuichi or else very heavily hinted to be Akai. The mystery train chapters only halfway revealed Okiya to be Akai with an eye flash in manga chapter 824. If Okiya is revealed to be Shuuichi in the movie, the manga will have its own way of doing the reveal as if the movie never happened.
