Where to start on this series... Besides that it will only end when the creator runs out of ways to kill people.

The story is of (at least in English, 'cause that's the only version I've read), is about a mystery-novel lover named Jimmy, who is an expert detective on the side. He sticks his nose where it doesn't belong and is given a deadly drug. But it would be boring if it ended that way, now wouldn't it?

It turns out, this drug has a 1/100 chance of, rather than killing, turning people into little kids! Jimmy is lucky enough to be one of these cases, and starts running around as Conan Edogawa, first grade genius detective, and solves all the ridiculous murders and crimes that he and his new friends happen to run into.

Conan doesn't look for trouble, trouble just finds him.

Ala Sherlock Holmes, this series has some spectacular killings and crimes and even more spectacular solutions.
