I know it's hard with this short video, but that's all I have.

It's from the first episodes because of the drawing.

What are plot elements you would really dislike seeing in the finale? I mean things that you think have at least a small chance of potentially happening, not stuff like "Shinichi changing sides and joining the BO" or "the Detective Boys dying".

For me it would be Ran never finding out the truth. I hate the idea of Shinichi overthrowing the BO, returning in his normal body, Conan getting send of to live with his parents off-screen, and him living happily ever after with Ran without ever telling her the truth.

I don't think they will do this but I also don't find it unlikely enough to completely rule it out. It would be so disrespectful to Ran's character and it would greatly impact how I see Shinichi if he were to do this.

I assume there's people here who've followed this show for years or even decades, like me.

Has the way you feel about the characters changed over time? For example, is there a character you used to dislike but now that you're older you feel more sympathetic towards them? Or characters whose actions you used to condone and now you judge them more harshly?

For me it's mostly than when I first started watching the show in the early 2000s I had a massive crush on Shinichi whereas nowadays my feelings towards him are more motherly lol I understand Ai's reluctance to provide him with information and temporary antidotes much better because this kid is a compulsive disaster whose IQ seems to lose 40 points whenever his feelings for Ran are involved. I also want to yell at Yukiko and Yusaku for leaving their then 13 year old child all by himself so they can enjoy their life in LA. Yes, I know, Shinichi wanted to stay behind, but I don't remember it ever being mentioned that they at least visit him regularly. I'm also only now realising how young many of the adult characters are. If I remember correctly, Yukiko, Yusaku, Eri and Kogoro are all only around 37. That's so young. That's barely older than I am now. I also used to assume Prof. Agasa was at least in his 60s because of his white hair.

I also used to admire Ran and Shinichi for saving Vermouth disguised as the serial killer in New York. As a teenager I was so moved by that action and agreed that it was the right thing to do. Whereas nowadays while I wouldn't deliberately harm the killer, I certainly would not try to save his life after he'd just tried to kill me and therefore provide him with another chance at killing me.

I may have overlooked it, even after countlessly rereading chapters.

The Mysterious Angel's Mansion case is one of the best filler cases in Detective Conan. The episode's production is excellent and fitting. The mysteries are extremely enjoyable.

I want to rewatch the movies/catch up on the ones I haven't watched yet but I can't find them anywhere. I want to watch the original with English subtitles, not some dubbed version.
