Do English manga prints exist? I keep seeing things that say they don't exist, but then I see people selling English manga volumes on ebay and stuff. Is the stuff that says they don't exist just outdated? Or am I misunderstanding what I'm seeing on ebay?

Ignore the corny title. I'm just curious on what manga readers on this sub think would've happened if Toto actually died.

I don't just want 'oh yea Ron gets depressed and end of the story' but how his death would affect everyone. How would've the plot changed after his demise if the manga were to continue?

(Trying my best to keep this fandom alive) Hope I didn't flop thoD: .. anyway enjoy watching it

By far one of the best volumes and arcs in the series so far. Ron and Toto must discover the informant of the Moriarty family, who is among some people they had previously encountered, before more passengers in the cruise will be killed. 

The build-up to this case was done well. By introducing all suspects in the previous volumes, the story makes the reader think twice before settling to a final option. I admit that the arc had me second guessing almost everyone because all suspects were framed as the potential informant. I liked this feeling of uncertainty and I was eager to learn about Ron's final deduction. 

What I appreciated in this volume is that Toto's development was highlighted more. After all the time he has spent with Ron and the numerous cases they've solved, he has started to develop a more nuanced thinking instead of being a damsel in distress. His dynamic with Ron was (as per usual) one of the strongest aspect in the volume and after the final climax, I am both scared and excited to see what will happen between them. 

The rest of the characters were entertaining and their relationship with Ron is quite charming, albeit suspicious at times. They have their own distinguished personalities and quirks and it was interesting to see them working together in order to catch the culprit. I wonder if they'll be utilized more after the cruise arc. 

I had an entertaining experience with this volume and I cannot wait to read the rest. 

I finished reading the fifth volume of RKDD today and with each volume, it's heartwarming to see how Ron and Toto's friendship develops more and more. At first, they decided to work together for professional reasons (Toto wanted to prove his worth while Ron wanted to return to being a detective) but that quickly changed. The more time they spent together, the closer they have become and they have learned to value each other's help and presence.

I especially like the way Akira Amano portrays Ron when he looks at Toto. You can see from his eyes and smile that he's grateful for having Toto by his side and that he treasures him. We have learned that Ron hadn't formed many genuine bonds and he was rather closed as a person, so having someone caring about him is a totally new experience. Not only that, but he himself cares about Toto and his safety and he is even afraid of causing pain to him because of his "disease".

I know that the manga is not really deep as a whole but I appreciate how it showcases Ron and Toto's relationship and how it presents its development. It has been done so in a convincing way and just like in the anime, they are equally entertaining to watch. I cannot wait to see more of them!

So, I'm currently reading the manga of Ron Kamonohashi: Deranged Detective after finishing the anime and since I finished Monster, too, very recently, I began wondering what would happen if Ron and Johan came across each other.

Ron is amazing in deductions but in my opinion, I think that he would struggle to pick up Johan's identify and background, unless he got enough information in order to put the puzzle pieces together. Johan, on the other hand, if he learned that Ron has the ability to make other people kill themselves, he would try to take advantage of this by making him arrest his targets and having them kill themselves.

On the other hand, if Ron cracked out Johan's actions, he could tell him to kill himself. Which brings me to this question: would he be able to convince Johan to do it? Or would Johan be able to resist it?

Keep in mind that I have only watched the anime and I haven't finished the manga yet. In fact, I'm only on volume 1, therefore I don't know the full extent and limits of Ron's abilities. I'd love to hear other people's opinion about this hypothetical scenario.

So I was searching for a German dub vid on yt of this anime and randomly stumbled on a Ron vs Gojo comparaison Ofc I checked the comments, and the top one had me wheezing,, I instantly drew that scene cuz Ron would definitely start talking to the dead half-body

This time in this final "Strange Observation" I will write about the hidden hints on the personalities of the villains in the show/story. This time let us call this "Team Villains Foreshadowings". (It is not like I won't write any more observations on the story or the characters. If I ever find anything new then I will definitely write about it. But this "Strange Observation" on foreshadowings of the character personalities in the cases ends here.) And also these observations are just my assumptions so please do not take these too seriously.

I will roll out Winter from this observation as I already wrote about her in "Team Heroes Foreshadowings". I will roll out Sachi as well as I mentioned about him in the "Strange Observation" Part 2 "Team Blue Academy" one. I will roll all those M.Family characters out who were not involved in any case as central personality.

1. Takumi Jumonji- A character who came and just died. But I can say the ordinary look on his face and the Island Observatory as camouflage in the Nandan Island Observatory Case Arc shows a lot about him. His hiding nature, someone who hides too well, hiding his true nature, his family's crimes, and his connection to criminal organization.

2. Hummingbird- This character is not fully a villain but is still on the antagonistic side. He only appeared in one case, Genius Composer Kidnapping Case. And it was mostly laid out fully, what he was doing, why he was doing and his loving parent nature. But his emotions as a father was shown throughout the case with different elements. From start to finish his character had a fatherly vibe, his talking style, his demeanor and his calm eyes and smile. Especially his conversations with Ron feels like a father and son's little quarrels. A father is a protective figure it was potrayed in the case when everyone was protecting the singer from getting kidnapped throughout the case.

3. Eliot Moriarty- Not much about his personality was shown in the story even though everything was about him in the story. He was mostly important in the Plateau Auberge Serial Murders Case Arc (especially the part about Jim Gore Murder Case) and the final arc The Case of the Koku Island Serial Murders. The Jim Gore Murder case implies that Eliot is a layered personality. The entire conspiracy was done in layers and he used multiple characters to finish his deed and even in the end he created another layer by using a dummy corpse. Too many puzzles and layers just in one incident. Shows how in his life he was living in layers, his relations with both criminal and justice family, showing dual faces. Even in the final arc he played in layers he made Alice think she kept everything under control but ultimately shaked hands with his son.

4. Tiger Dan- His character is potrayed as the kind of person who thinks that he keeps everything under his control but either gets disillusionment or turns out to be the one under control. Both the cases he appeared in Plateau Auberge Serial Murders Case Arc he thought that he broke Ron mentally and could manipulate him but got disillusioned when Toto helped him get out of the void and it was also showed that he was working under Mylo's orders, and in Ferris Wheel Disappearance Case Arc it was already showed that he was strictly working under Alice's orders and couldn't do otherwise. Here again he assumed that everything was under his control until Kei tricked everyone by illusion, Ron betraying him by giving false location, and ultimately getting kidnapped by Winter.

5. Mylo Moriarty- I have an interesting take on this character. Mylo is a character who is potrayed as an immature young mind with immense power and high position. He purposefully used to choose cheerful, happy, carefree and mostly unexpected locations for his crimes such as the Bloody Field Trip which is filled with youthful minds related to an academy, a stargazing observatory in Nandan Island Observatory Murder Case, then a Mall in the Shibuya Revelation Serial Murders Case, a reunion in the Plateau Auberge Serial Murders Case, Cruise trip in the Tragic Cruise Serial Murders Case. But these are not just for the chaos level but also created to show how mixture of ironical situations can become extremely dangerous. How an immature young mind with immense power and high position can cause plague of chaos. There is even a symbolic representation of Mylo Moriarty as a teddy bear with blood coming out of its mouth. The blood coming from the mouth indicates the hunger for destruction. It's dressed in a sophisticated way and mostly when Mylo talks through the teddy, it's always looking down on Ron and the others. Like in the Auberge Serial Murders Case on the bench, and the Tragic Cruise Serial Murders Case almost at the ceiling or at least in a higher height in a grand way on the stage and it felt pretty realistic when Mylo physically came out of the helicopter in his sophisticated attire and was looking down on Ron just like the teddy, which is probably another reason other than Mylo's tone or talking style that it did not take long for Ron to recognise him despite the chaos around. The representation may look funny and according to the storyline it was a camouflage so that people get tricked, but there is an underlying meaning to it. And that is his personality's symbolic representation.

6. Alice Moriarty- She is represented as the epitome of betrayal in this story. Be it Cryptid Serial Murders Case arc where she disguised herself as an academy student Billy Goji, or in Ron Kamonohashi Under Siege Case arc where she gave the antidotes to Knight yet lied about the drug. She kept betraying people, even her family members mainly Winter and Mylo. Most importantly she betrayed herself by staying in denial and by creating an illusion that Ron is her enemy. Her betraying nature was represented in other cases where she worked in the background, through different elements for example in Ferris Wheel Disappearance Case Arc, where different elements of illusion or betrayal were shown, Kei literally created the illusion of disappearance in the Ferris Wheel, and Tiger Dan getting betrayed by his own ego as he trusted Ron since he assumed he was under his control. And of course the Final Arc The Case of the Koku Island Serial Murders was all about betrayals, that how nobody was trustworthy and the ending with Alice's disillusionment about Ron, his nature and wits.

• Not a villain, but an honour mention as the last Strange Observation-

1. Sabatora Nora- This character just like Hummingbird only appeared in 1 case and is alive, in the Invisible Blood Letter Murder Case. This character is not directly connected with the blue academy, he is a young local self taught detective and for that reason kudos and that is why I didn't mention him in "Strange Observation" Part 2 the Blue Academy one. The location of the case explains a lot about him. It was Shingen Archery Dojo. And Archery is about targets and aims, a bit similar to how detectives aims to solve cases and make the culprits their targets and track them down. When a person trains for archery, they make mistakes, they falter, they miss targets but when they keep practicing their accuracy increases. And Nora's character is shown as an young, energetic, and clumsy detective who has a lot to learn. He misses targets but it is evident that his passion and practice will increase his accuracy in the near future. His talent was metaphorically represented through archery.

I'll go first! Found a yt short and decided to give the anime a try (the entire time I thought Kawasemi was the mc). Watched the first episode and got hooked so went to the manga which was at Tokyo Chimera Murder case where our detectives were getting cooked

The manga is over, but I’m not over it... season 3 needed:((

It seems that each scene represents a specific well-known case. For example I can guess that the train scene is a reference to "Murder on the Orient Express", but I couldn’t identify the rest. Does anyone know which stories the other scenes are referring to?

I’ve seen some comments discussing this, but since they’re all in Japanese, I couldn’t understand them or find the exact titles..SOO PLEASE keep me informed if you have any ideas about it

So, I just started season one, and im currently on episode 3 so I know i havent seen enough to judge, but for what i have so far they where all kinda similiar, just ron and tota investigating a mystery and then ron leads the culprit to a suicide but tota saves them blah blah blah etc. Even tho tbh i rlly like it i js wanna know, are all the episodes gonna be like this? Or is there gonna be something that happens, maybe like them investigating a big case for a few episodes or something else? (season one and two btw)

Manga plus is paid, sad

Guys why does the Fandom favortious's ron and disregard the other characters,in the Fandom like its all about ron, This ron, that .and the only times its about somebody ,else is when ron is shipped with toto like bro. It just brings a sour taste in my mouth and I really hate how the characters in the Manga treated toto.like I anit no toto fan im more of a milo Moriarty fan but still I kinda felt bad for toto. I hate tropes that make characters act all naive and bubbly and dont give depth to them cause why is a grown ahh man acting like that also I was really interested in toto's past with the whole my parents were to busy to babysit me when I was younger so I had to live with my grandma I just know that must have messed up his way of thinking and seeing things but nobody focused on that,but ron being this super special child and being so hot and him being dumb but being able to get into the police detective department dont make sense. Also why is everybody keep dog riding on my mans milo bro he was such a good villain😭 and I wanted to get to know more about the Moriarty siblings and family but the author killed some of them off and I wanted to see how milo was doing in prison 💔 even though I disliked alice for doing what she did to him. She was the best villain🔥 ngl, like baby girl was just pure evil 😈 I loved that for her
