About Detective Conan: The Fourteenth Target

Detective Conan: The Fourteenth Target (名探偵コナン 14番目の標的(ターゲット)) blends adventure and mystery by TMS Entertainment (1998). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. The premise: Ran has a nightmare about her mother dying, but sets off to remember what really happened involving herself, her mother, and her father from 10 years ago. Meanwhile, people are being injured by a certain culprit.

Also worth knowing: Conan soon realizes that these people all have some kind of relation to Mouri, and that they all had a number in their name corresponding to a playing card and were being targeted in order, from the king down to the ace. The police soon decide that a murderous card dealer who just got out of jail and wanted revenge on Mouri is behind it. However, as injuries become murders and it is a race to predict who the next victims will be, Conan soon comes across that the truth is something completely different, while learning about the incident from 10 years ago in the process.

As an adventure title, exploration, new locations and a steady sense of momentum drive the story. Voice work is led by Minami Takayama as Conan Edogawa and Gara Takashima as Eri Kisaki. It will appeal most to anyone who enjoys travel-the-world storytelling. With 1 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
