A lot of mysterious murder cases happen around them.
This time, I will introduce 5 particularly famous great detectives and police detectives! 🎬
Conan Edogawa (Detective Conan)

Hajime Kindaichi (The Kindaichi Case Files)
“In the name of my grandfather!” is his catchphrase.
It is a Japanese detective anime that stands as one of the two giants alongside Detective Conan. The unfortunate point is that the anime is not aired regularly.
This one has content more aimed at adults, and it is a work that even adults can enjoy watching.
He is usually an unreliable high school student, but when faced with a case, he demonstrates superhuman deductive reasoning powers as the grandson of the legendary great detective Kosuke Kindaichi 🕵️
L (DEATH NOTE)
A world-famous great detective whose identity is wrapped in mystery. Always in a strange sitting posture, he challenges difficult cases relying on vast information and sharp intuition.
It caused such a huge boom that the way of sitting called “L-sitting” even became popular 💺
It is also the breakout work for Kenichi Matsuyama in the movie version 🎬
The tense battle of wits with “Kira” over the Death Note fascinated many fans 📖
Ninzaburo Furuhata (Furuhata Ninzaburo) 🕵️♂️
“Hmm… I wonder” is his catchphrase.
Although he is a detective of the Metropolitan Police Department, his investigation style is that of a unique private investigator itself.
The story structure is a format where the culprit is revealed at the beginning, so the viewers grasp who the culprit is in advance 👀
Furuhata corners the culprit’s tricks and psychology with skillful conversation techniques and sharp observation skills.

The stories are interesting, and the people appearing are all Japanese star actors, so I think you should try watching it 👍
