Description


Love is in the air as Conan and company face the most dangerous time of the year: Valentine's Day! Detective Sato of the Metropolitan Police has reluctantly agreed to an arranged marriage - unless her partner Takagi can work up the nerve to confess his feelings for her. But first he's got to catch a convenience store stickup artist who looks completely different to every witness! Can a phone call from Jimmy Kudo help him crack the case before he loses the girl? When ace high school detective Jimmy Kudo is fed a mysterious substance by a pair of nefarious men in black - poof! He is physically transformed into a first grader. Until Jimmy can find a cure for his miniature malady, he takes on the pseudonym Conan Edogawa and continues to solve all the cases that come his way.


Author Description


Gosho Aoyama made his debut in 1992 with Chotto Matte (Wait a Minute), which won Shogakukan's prestigious Shinjin Comic Taisho (Newcomer's Award for Comics) and launched his career as a critically acclaimed, top-selling manga artist. In addition to Detective Conan, which won the Shogakukan Manga Award in 2001, Aoyama created the popular manga Yaiba, which won the Shogakukan Manga Award in 1992. Aoyama's manga is greatly influenced by his boyhood love for mystery, adventure and baseball, and he has cited the tales of Arsene Lupin and Sherlock Holmes and the samurai films of Akira Kurosawa as some of his childhood favorites.
