Detective Conan x Precure Episode Sparks Buzz for Having No Deaths! Fans Relieved Despite a Case in Beika Town

A special collaboration episode between Detective Conan and Star Detective Precure! aired on June 6, drawing attention online after the case was resolved without any fatalities.

The crossover was part of a two-way collaboration project between Star Detective Precure! and Detective Conan. Conan Edogawa appeared in the May 31 episode of Star Detective Precure!, while Cure Answer made her appearance in the June 6 episode of Detective Conan. The collaboration united two anime franchises that air on different television networks and are produced by different animation studios, making it a rare crossover that crossed traditional industry boundaries.

The Detective Conan collaboration episode that aired on June 6 followed the Detective Boys as they solved a series of jewel theft cases. After learning about a string of jewel robberies occurring throughout Beika Town, Ayumi becomes excited, comparing the incidents to the plot of her favorite anime, Precure, and declaring that if a band of thieves appears, she might get to meet a Precure.

Conan and the Detective Boys volunteer to guard Kaneko Jewelry, which is rumored to be the thieves’ next target. After tailing a suspicious customer, they uncover both the date of the planned crime and the gang’s hideout. Although it initially appears that the police have successfully rounded up the entire criminal group, Ayumi notices something that does not quite add up.

It is eventually revealed that the people arrested by the police had been recruited through illegal “dark part-time jobs,” and that the true mastermind remained at large. Conan and the others rush back to Kaneko Jewelry, where they confront the real culprit. As they attempt to capture the criminal, Cure Answer suddenly appears.

Beika Town, the setting of Detective Conan, is officially described as one of the most crime-ridden towns in the world, according to the spin-off series Detective Conan: The Culprit Hanzawa. Before the episode aired, some fans jokingly expressed concern about the crossover, posting comments such as, “What if someone dies anyway?” and “Will this become the first Precure series to have a death?”

However, the case was ultimately solved without any casualties, leading many viewers to express relief online. Comments included, “Even Conan couldn’t have someone die in a Precure episode,” “Wow, Conan really can have an episode without a death,” and “So crossover episodes are peaceful after all.”
