Impromptu "Detective Conan" Rant of Excitement!
OMG! Shuu!! That had better be him in this file, or I will be forced to inflict some serious physical harm on Aoyama-sensei... Oh! And with those burn marks, he reminds me of the Phantom of the Opera now... It's on the right side of his face and everything!
But, even if that person isn't Akai Shuuichi, this File has made me happier than I have been for a while. Finally, there has been some confirmation about a romantic relationship between Jodie and Shuu! I always thought that they made a great team, and that they would be a really awesome couple; I mean, Jodie is so much fun as a character that she deserves someone, and what better person than the awesome Shuu? Besides, from her nickname for him to her extreme reaction to his "death," I was positive that she, at least, had feelings for him. But then, I had to contend with the obvious love between him and Akemi, and she was so sweet (and is Shiho's sister) that I didn't want that to all be a lie...
Aoyama-sensei has dealt with that, too, in this File on page 5 - Shuu was in love with both Jodie and Akemi! (Surely that's what he means, right? "To be able to love two women at the same time... It's not that handy a personality...") ...Now if only Shinichi would realize that it's the same with him loving both Ran and Haibara... lol...
Oh my gosh... I am still so excited! It must be Shuu... but if it isn't, at least the relationship between him and Jodie was more than "merely an FBI colleague," as James said. Wow... I need the next file right now... please...
