Spoofs in Ranma, Conan and Inu Yasha

[ice_of_dreams]

In Detective Conan manga volume 4. Ranma appears as a cameo. I can't remember the title of the case, but it was the case where the Junior Detective League found a "treasure map" (that limits it right, there are like three treasure map incidents with the children in Detective Conan) which actually came from the Italian Mafia with the word "Oro". Conan insists that they stop by a bookstoore. While Conan is looking at dictionaries, the children look at Shonen Sunday magazine and the magazine has Ranma on the cover.

In Inu Yasha visual Selection volume 30, in the anime this is episode 90, I don't know if there's a manga equvalent. This episode has Sota confessing to a girl he likes (I forgot her name, H something... damn I just watched it). He dresses up in fancy clothes, blue overcoat, red bowtie and rubbershoes -- exactly like Conan Edogawa (note, they don't have uniforms in elementary school), right down to the bowtie and the maximum power shoes. (well... except the glasses)

Inu Yasha anime episode 128. Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri appear in Kagome's High school Festival (haha they're visiting the school festival). They appear after Kagome is dragged away by Ayumi for the choir. I found this because of ytak.







This particular information comes from ytak's page: Detective Conan comes on after Inuyasha in Japan. They are even in the same compilation, Shonen Sunday.

So... it's either Shonen sunday wants to have their characters gain more publicity by spoofing in their series, Takahashi Rumiko and Gosho Aoyama are friends or the two just like each other's series. Haha.

Yeah, I watched it too. When I buy the conan anime I'll have to take a screen cap. However, my laptop doesn't want to agree with me with the screencapping it took me two hours to take a screen cap of the pics that I had to virtually give up.

... I don't have Volume 4!! Gah. I need an English translation. My Vietnamese tankoubon I bought in Vietnam or getting them sent over isn't good enough, lol.

Do you... want volume 4? Scanlation I mean. I could send it over yousendit or something style.

[janneia.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I do. But I was wondering, where do you get them from?

[ice-of-dreams.livejournal.com]

I'll get back to you where I get the conan scanlations from when I have my external harddrive plugged in. I usually download Meitantei conan off miRC and eMule. Since conan is licensed, there are quite a number of the volumes that have bad scans. Volume 4 is one of the earlier volumes so it's a cleaner scanlation.

I asked my sister to buy me a couple of volumes while she's in Japan *squee*.

Ah, ok, thanks. I'll be sure to check.

*is jealous* ^.~
