How do you think Detective Conan is going to end?

[Conan-kun]

Alright, so I have a perfect ending in my head but I was just wondering how others think it'll end. If this is a duplicate, gomen, I didn't see the other one. I'll post my ending later on. Remember, this is only an opinion. No flames, no grilling. Saa, hajimaru yo!

[tml]

At this point, I think the ending is somewhat open. However, I do believe it will most likely involve one or more of the following:

-Conan permanently reverting to Shinichi
-Conan/Shinichi telling the truth about himself to all around him
-The key members of the Black Organization are captured/killed
-Ran & Shinichi get married and/or spend the rest of their lives together

All of the above items are things people have been rooting for, but I think that Mr. Aoyama has purposely delayed making them actually happen to avoid taking the air out of this show (I have similarly noticed that producers of most TV dramas keep couples apart until either the end of the series or until one or more of them leave the series). As such, I think that if they were to happen, they would most definitely happen when the final episodes of DC air.

However, there are several things involving Conan reverting to Shinichi and/or telling the truth about himself that I can't yet figure out what would transpire:

-How would Kogoro react upon learning the truth behind the "Sleeping Kogoro"?
-How would Ran react upon learning about Conan hiding his true identity?

P.S. It has also been rumored that Ai's true identity will have been discovered by Gin & Vodka by the time DC officially ends.

[Conan-kun]

I indeed think that Conan will revert back to Shinichi for good. As for Ran's reaction, I think she'll be angry in the beginning but knowing her good nature, she'll forgive him. Kogoro, I'm not sure (lol) . I want Aoyama-sensei to show the future (them getting married) and I also want him to show Heiji and Kazuha's wedding. A possibility could be that they think that they arrested all the men in black but one was remaining! That would be a great twist of plot especially if Aoyama-sensei was planning on writing an after-story. I think Haibara will remain as a child because she seems attached to her 7-year old life seeing as she didn't have a childhood. I support that decision. I also don't know if Aoyama-sensei will interlink Detective Conan and Magic Kaito's endings since he made Kaito connected to the DC plot (supposing that Snake is a member of the Syndicate) because if he does, he'll have to end both in the same way (Kaito finding Pandora) which would be quite hard...

I also read somewhere on the web (from a Chinese-language website) that the conclusion would also involve Shinichi & Ran would go to college together in Los Angeles. I know this is probably based on the fact that Shinichi's parents are there, but I don't know whether or not I would support it at this time.

BTW, I also wonder:

(1) How would the rest of the Detective Boys react upon learning about Conan & Ai's true identities?

(2) How would Megure and the other police officers/detectives react upon learning about the truth behind the "Sleeping Kogoro"?

[Conan-kun]

College in Los Angeles? I don't think Shinichi is even considering college. Ran might go but only if Shinichi would go. I think that Tantei-dan will feel deceived (escpecially Ayumi, seeing her feelings for Conan aren't only "friendship") because, as seen in OVA 9 [Stranger in Ten Years], they are still all fairly attached to Conan even in High School. I have no idea about the police officers' reactions will be though...

[tml]

I also think that by the end of the series, Takagi and Sato will be together for the long-term. However, as I've said before, I believe Mr. Aoyama won't join them together until either the series ends for good or until one or more of them gets written out of the series. Examples from other TV shows include Carol Hathaway & Doug Ross on ER, Gil Grissom & Sara Sidle on CSI, Harmon Rabb & Sarah MacKenzie on JAG, etc.

[Conan-kun]

Takagi and Sato's fates are already decided. It'd be better if they just got married already before another incident happens (Similar to Shiratori and Sato's o-miai). So it's obvious that they'll be together. I hope we'll get to see more family by the end! I don't want Aoyama to go TOO far in the future for Shinichi and Ran (because I just hated Fruits Basket's ending where they showed them as old geezers) but I want to see their married life or at least their wedding. Regarding the men in black, what will be their predicament?

[mirey]

Why does everyone want to see Shinichi and Ran married? This isn't a soupy shojo, people. Even Takagi and Sato, they are a great couple, but I deffinately don't see them married, just living together.

Personally, I prefer a sad ending. Something like the main character dies but he saves everyone, and I really mean EVERYONE, not just the girl of his dreams (and probably his best friend and archrival help him in the process with teary eyes ;D ).

I don't mind a good ending as well: he goes back being Shinichi, we finally have a decent "I love you" and a decent kiss scene, the BO is caught, or no more, everybody is happy.

But!! The best way to do it, if either the ending is good or bad, everyone must be in it. ABSOLUTELY everyone have to help Shinichi in their own way. And even minor characters we see once in every 400 episodes - like Hakuba and Eisuke, all have to be in it ^_^

[Conan-kun]

Hakuba and Eisuke? Heh, can't help but like the idea.
Tonikaku, I'd like to see Shinichi and Ran married. Yup. Definitely. I think it would be quite interesting. Sato and Takagi is a must, though. I don't want them living together while not married! I think they should quit the police when they wed. I personally want a happy end. No tears ; keep it joyful. Ran should be a main element in the final fight against the men in black. Like a scene where she would just beat the crap out of Gin right when he's about to finish off Conan. That would be heroic and epic. I also see Vermouth dying saving Ran and/or Shinichi. I agree on the part about everybody being in it. So that it's a complete, elaborate and not too short ending!

After thinking a little further, I've also started to wonder what would happen to the following characters by the end:

Eri Kisaki - will she rejoin Kogoro, will she marry someone else, or will she stay divorced?
Kaito Kid - will he be caught? Will his true identity (as Kaito Kuroba) be revealed?

Eri should live with Kogoro again. Kogoro obviously wants Eri back, but she's kind of selfish :/

I think that Kaito will make the Kaito Kid vanish along with the Black Organization. The only reason he's still stealing as Kaito Kid is because he needs to destroy Pandora to prevent the men in black from using it. When he gets to his goal, he should stop. That's my opinion anyhow :3
How about Haibara? What do you guys think will happen to her?

[omigawdmatt]

I'm most concerned with wondering if the show will show the future of Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi. But other than that, I can mostly tell that Conan will turn back to Shinichi and if not, then that's just unfortunate. Whatever the ending, Ran and Mouri's reactions can be obvious. xD

I don't know about Haibara. Maybe something bad might happen but if she's safe and back to normal, then I don't know what she will do with her life. Maybe she'll continue with creating strange chemical stuff with Agasa without it having to be dangerous.

Takagi and Sato - hehe, of course... xD The whole police district won't go through major changes other than that I guess. Not sure what to say for them all. The FBI group will be stable. I also don't know what to say about Heiji and Kazuha. And, the Black Organization must perish. ;o

I want them to show Mitsuhiko, Genta and Ayumi as high-schoolers ;D They're so adorable as 17 year-olds (See movie 5)

Haibara has a future in medicine. She could make medicines against deadly diseases. Plus, she'll be atoning for the poisons she made in the organization. I also think it'll be a good thing for herself.

I laugh just thinking about Takagi and Sato. It's already decided between them. As for the FBI, I have no idea how they could stay stable after Shuuichi's death... Unless he's actually Subaru Okiya. That would be quite the turn of events. I deeply hope the organization will disappear. So that Shinichi can live his life peacefully with Ran I also have a feeling that Kazuha will admit her feelings for Heiji before the end of the series... Every time it almost happens, she's so serious about it!

[xtrueotaku]

It may be a possibility that Heji is a black organization spy, or at least he knew about them before he met Shinichi. Because in the english dub, he talks about how Gin and Vodka are killers, and how they are interested in him. Also in episode 130 when Haibara says that Shinichi has been part of their plan before he was born? I'm kind of curious on how that will all fit in. But I do believe that Conan, and Kaito will team up, and Conan will learn who he is but won't tell anyone because he'll understad why he does it. I also think that the APTX 4869 will have something to do with the constant murders around him. They mention it so much, and when Shinichi and Heji do the ski flash back thing they talk about how Shinichi always gets more mysteries. I also think I heard Haibara say something about defying death, something like that I'm not sure what episode or manga chapter.

If you want other "wild speculations" such as this one, how about this: one particular fan of DC thinks Dr. Agasa may actually be the head of the Black Organization! For those of you who read Chinese, please go to the following link to read why he thinks so:
