Case Closed, also known as Meitantei Conan (名探偵 コナン?, Detective Conan), is a Japanese detective manga series written and illustrated by Gosho Aoyama and is serialized in Weekly Shōnen Sunday since 1994. The name "Case Closed" for the English language release results from "unspecified legal considerations" of the name Detective Conan.[1] The story follows the adventures of Jimmy Kudo, a prodigious young detective who was inadvertently transformed into a child due to a poison.
Jimmy Kudo, a gifted 17-year-old high school detective who frequently works with the police, is attacked by two members of a mysterious crime syndicate while investigating a case of blackmail. He was drugged with a newly-developed drug that is supposed to kill him, but due to a rare side effect unknown to the two men, the drug transformed his body into that of a seven-year-old instead. In order to hide his identity and investigate the whereabouts of the syndicate, called the Black Organization, he adopts the pseudonym Conan Edogawa. To search for leads to the syndicate, he moves in with his childhood friend Rachel Moore whose father Richard Moore is a private investigator. He also enrolls into Teitan elementary school and forms the Junior Detective League with three elementary school friends, Amy, Mitch and George. Even as Conan, Jimmy continues solving criminal cases, posing as Richard Moore with the help of special gadgets. Richard Moore, a rather inept detective, is bewildered at the sudden rise in his case-solving abilities, but does not question as he is more than glad about his subsequent rise in fame.
