Case Closed #77
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume of the long-running mystery series collects the conclusion of the 'Sign of Three' story arc, where young detective Jimmy Kudo—still trapped in the body of Conan Edogawa—tackles a complex case involving a series of interconnected crimes. As Conan pieces together clues from multiple perspectives, he must outwit a cunning culprit while navigating the challenges of his hidden identity. The volume showcases Gosho Aoyama's signature blend of clever puzzles and character-driven drama.
In "The Greatest Mentor," a quiet afternoon takes a dark turn when Rachel and her friends stumble upon a body near a vending machine, a cryptic kanji drawn in blood beside it. The symbol instantly connects to a long-closed case from a decade prior—one that even the legendary author Booker Kudo never solved—setting off a mystery that ties the present to a past only he could have known. Written by Gosho Aoyama and Tetsuichiro Miyaki, with art and inks by Gosho Aoyama, and a cover by Gosho Aoyama, this issue blends suspense and memory in a story that lingers long after the final page.
In "The Greatest Mentor," Conan and the Tokyo Metro Police are locked in a high-stakes race against time to locate Det. Takagi, who’s been taken hostage—guided only by a cryptic video feed and a ticking clock. With tension mounting and every second counting, the team must piece together clues before it’s too late.
In "Signs of Being Home" from Case Closed #77, a sudden death at the scene leaves Conan and Det. Takagi facing a mystery with no clear suspects—just a man fallen from a height, and no one who could have done it. With no evidence and every alibi holding up, the case becomes a puzzle of silence and absence, where the truth might be hidden in what wasn’t seen.
In "Booker Kudo's Cold Case," a routine walk home takes a chilling turn when Rachel and her friends stumble upon a body beside a vending machine. Masumi spots a blood-written kanji near the corpse, a symbol Rachel instantly recognizes from a long-unsolved murder ten years prior—one of the few cases even the legendary author Booker Kudo couldn’t crack.
In "Johnny," Masumi and Serena dive headfirst into a puzzling case, chasing leads with relentless energy while the police remain unimpressed. As Conan guides them from the shadows, pretending to be Jimmy Kudo, a slip of the tongue nearly unravels everything when Subaru catches on.
In "Smoke Signal," Conan and Masumi race against time to find missing children, only to discover the kids have locked themselves inside a remote cabin. With the local police closing in, the killer sets the cabin ablaze, turning a desperate search into a race for survival.
In "The Lonely Figure in the Light," Conan races to unravel a mystery that puts the lives of children in danger, forcing Shiho to confront her past when she must transform back into her adult form to intervene. As the truth unfolds, a hidden recording captures the moment—and with it, Shiho’s identity is revealed to Eisuke Hondo, setting off a chain of consequences neither she nor Conan could have foreseen.
